Chapter 22- The Psychological Complexities of Dawn: Sleepover

Disclaimer: Owning Harry Potter does not equal me.

"Have you got it?" Whitby asked as Grogan and Kuo sneaked into Dawn's room. The four girls were celebrating the survival of another week in the best way they knew how, a sleepover. Dawn's room was chosen because it was soundproof.

"Well, yeah," Grogan said pulling out a large bottle of Fire Whiskey from her cloak. She turned to Kuo and said, "Show them what else we found."

Kuo pulled out a small bottle of clear liquid and said, "Veritaserum."

"Truth or dare, the only real way to play," Dawn laughed. "If only we had a boy or two to play that with."

"That doesn't sound half bad," Grogan smiled.

Whitby and Kuo looked at one another, then sighed. "Alright," Whitby said. "But, we each get to invite one."

"And it has to be from Hogwarts," Kuo said, "Because I don't want to wait on any Brutus Maximus. Meet back in five minutes?"

"More than enough time," Grogan said, jumping up and racing out the door. The other three weren't quite as excited. Dawn figured that Whitby would grab either Davies or Frost and Kuo would no doubt grab the other Whitby. It was clear that Grogan would have Creevey, so she would just go and grab Leo.

"Hey, Dawn," Leo said, opening the door. "You wanted something?"

"Well, a few of us are in my room, and we're about to play truth or dare," Dawn said. "Want to join in?"

Leo smiled. "You know it. Let me throw on something a little more comfortable and I'll be there in a minute."

In the end, the players were Dawn, Leo, Grogan, Creevey, Whitby, Davies, Kuo, and the other Whitby. Dawn made a mental note to start using a few first names, because there was no way she would be able to say Whitby without two responses. Also, it was just a more friendly way of addressing people.

"Who starts?" Lena asked, settling into her seat on the bed.

"How about you start," Leo said. "Truth or dare, Grogan?"

Lena thought for a moment, then said, "Dare, Pasts. Give me the best you've got."

Leo smiled. "Strip show. I dare you to do a three minute pole dance."

The three other girls groaned while the boys all had to stifle smiles of delight. Lena whipped out her wand and conjured a pole in the middle of the room. Leo conjured a three-minute hour glass, and Lena began her dance. The other three girls turned away and when the three minutes were up, Dawn turned back to see her pull on her pajamas again. Kevin had a bit of drool on his chin.

"Who's next?" Lena asked, an evil glint growing in her eye. "How about, Curran? Truth or dare?"

Curran thought a moment, then said, "Dare."

Lena leaned back and asked, "Anyone have a camera?" Theresa slowly raised her hand. "Good. I dare you to fly to the castle, and find any room with a Bauxbatons student, and snap a picture."

"Good thing it's a Polaroid," Theresa said.

Curran smiled, relieved that he wasn't going to have to masturbate or anything in front of the whole group. Theresa got him her camera, and he grabbed his broom and climbed out the window. It was several minutes later when the heard him land on the roof, and he crawled back in. He held up the picture of a girl, green mask on her face and curlers in her hair. She also was clad in a completely sheer robe, which hid nothing after the flash.

"Okay," Curran said sitting down again. "Who's next? How about… Stella."

Stella chose truth and had to admit, after taking a drop of Veritaserum, that she had never been kissed, never tried to kiss anyone, and that the only person she had ever had a crush on was Leo.

Theresa chose dare and had to decorate Malcolm's door the same a five year old girl would decorate anything, with pink, ponies, and sparkles. She also had to make it absolutely permanent.

It was Theresa who chose Dawn. Dawn chose dare. Theresa smiled.

"I dare you to play seven minutes in heaven with…" Theresa's eyes skimmed over the group. "Dennis and when he comes out, he had better be happily dazed. And no bringing in any wands to perform maximum Cheering Charms."

Dawn looked over at Dennis, who was flushing. She nodded and pulled Dennis into her tiny closet. The moment the door was closed behind her, Dawn pulled Dennis to her lips. About ten seconds after that, her hands were already untucking his shirt, she heard Theresa say "Go."

Dawn pulled Dennis out of his shirt and ran her hands up and down his toned chest several times. Dennis seemed more than happily dazed as it was, and she was just beginning to have fun. She began to nibble slightly on his lower lip as she kissed him even more passionately, earning a few moans from him. Dawn pulled herself as close to Dennis as she could and wrapped a leg around him.

After a few minutes, Dennis finally came out of his initial daze and began reacting to all her advancements. Now that he was kissing her back, she felt something odd. A spark of some sort. She had never made-out with someone as aggressively gentle as Dennis. She couldn't figure out what it was about him, but he was the best kisser she had ever kissed.

"Time," Theresa said opening the door. She looked at the two of them, and smiled. "I'd say that's a dare well done."

Dennis stepped out first, and Dawn could see his cheeks flushing in the light of the room. Dawn watched him, and then turned to hide her face from everyone else as she touched her lips. She had enjoyed kissing before, but it had never made her body tingle.
