--Chapter--The Halloween Dance
Saturday, October 25th
"Wake up Michelle, we're going to Hogsmeade soon," Blaise said, pushing Michelle's shoulder as she slept.
Michelle woke up with a start. "What? Why, what time is it?"
"We're going to see if we can buy some Gryffindor robes, and it's 9 a.m.," Pansy said.
Michelle nodded and rolled out of bed. She grabbed some clothes and went into the bathroom the girls shared. Several minutes later, Michelle emerged from the bathroom wearing jean bellbottoms, a white button-blouse topped off with her Slytherin tie, while her hair was thrown up into a wet, messy bun.
"Always have to have the tie, don't you?" asked Blaise.
"Hey, I'm a true Slytherin and am proud of it. I want others to know this," Michelle said, smoothing her tie down her chest.
"Yeah whatever, that's just great when you're in the market for Gryffindor robes…Are you going to go eat something?" asked Pansy.
"Yeah, I'll grab some toast, then we'll go," Michelle said, leaving the dorm and going down the stairs to the common room. She went out the portrait hole, Tiffy on her shoulder chattering about something, and Pansy and Blaise following. When the three got to the Great Hall, Michelle kissed Draco's lips before grabbing some toast. "Hey luv."
"Hey 'Elle, you going to Hogsmeade?" asked Draco, eating some bacon and giving Tiffy some when she ventured over to him.
"Yeah, we're going to see if we can get Gryffindor robes. Which reminds me, can you grab one of yours so I can know your measurements, along with Crabbe and Goyle's? I'll put them in my book bag," Michelle said, spreading some peanut butter on her toast.
"OK, I'll go get those now."
"I'll come with you. I'll meet you guys here, I forgot my book bag," Michelle said, talking to Pansy and Blaise.
Pansy snorted while Blaise rolled her eyes and nodded. They both knew Michelle and Draco were going to have a make out session in Draco's dorm. Draco held Michelle's hand as he led her out of the Great Hall. Tiffy looked between the two.
"Are you two going to do it?" asked Tiffy in her tiny voice.
Michelle grabbed Tiffy off her shoulder. "Umm, Tiffy, no, but can you wait with Pansy and Blaise for me?"
"OK, have fun," Tiffy said, flying back to the Great Hall.
Michelle shook her head at Tiffy as Draco just laughed. He grabbed Michelle's hand again and continued to lead her to the common room.
Harry walked out of his dorm and into the Heads' common room to find Hermione sitting on a chair, flipping threw a magazine. He walked up behind Hermione. "I didn't figure you'd be one to look at magazines," Harry said.
"I'm looking for a Halloween costume for myself and Ron," Hermione said. "And I wish you'd leave me alone Potter."
"Why are you bothering to look for a costume for Weasley? He's scary looking enough."
"Would you stop saying that he looks horrible? He's a great person."
"Maybe, but does he cheat on you?"
"What do you mean?"
"I mean, does he cheat on you with other girls or guys?"
"No! He'd never do that."
"Then how come I saw him snogging Hannah Abbott yesterday after he left here? Hmm…?"
"You're lying."
"No, I'm not."
"Don't lie to me Potter."
"I'm not fucking lying to you! There are better guys for you!" Harry yelled in Hermione's face.
Hermione looked at Harry with pure sadness on her face. Harry kissed Hermione fiercely for a long time before pulling away. He looked at Hermione once more before leaving the common room. Once he was in the corridor, Harry burst out laughing. He couldn't believe Hermione fell for that! Ron wasn't cheating on Hermione, or at least Harry thought he wasn't.
Harry walked down the stairs to the Entrance Hall. He proceeded to the Great Hall, Zippy poking his head while Harry tried to stop him. When Harry entered the Great Hall, he saw Michelle swinging her book bag and talking to Pansy and Blaise while Draco fed Tiffy.
"Hi lovelies," Harry said, kissing Blaise's then Pansy's cheek.
Pansy and Blaise both looked at him strangely. Michelle just raised an eyebrow at Harry while Draco didn't seem to notice.
"What? I thought I'd start something new," Harry said, shrugging.
"OK then…" Pansy trailed off.
"So what are you and Padma going as for the dance?" asked Michelle.
"Dunno," said Harry, shrugging again.
"You should find out later."
"I will," Harry said, before turning to Draco. "Are you going into Hogsmeade?"
"I don't know, maybe," Draco replied.
"OK, well let's head home, if you decide you want to, and grab some Fire Whiskey, I should have some there."
"Don't drink that, drink Michnsy," Pansy said. "There's some up in the guys' dorm Mr. Head. Talk to you two later though, we're going."
Draco and Harry waved to the girls as they left; Tiffy beating her tiny wings furiously trying to catch up. Michelle caught Tiffy and placed her on her shoulder. The girls continued through the doors, Filch, checking their names off before they were allowed to get into one of the carriages.
"I think Threstals are gorgeous," Blaise said, petting the Threstal for the carriage that was standing there.
"So do I," Michelle said. "Did someone you know die while you watched or whatever causes you to see them?"
"Yeah, my cousin died in one of those automobile accidents, I was in the passenger seat when it happened."
"Were you close?" asked Pansy.
"Yes," Blaise said.
"Sorry?" said Michelle uncertainly.
"Yeah, I'm sorry. I can't see Threstals so I'm happy I guess," Pansy said.
"Let's just get in the carriage and stop talking about Threstals," Michelle said, getting in the carriage.
The other two got in after Michelle and Tiffy. The ride was basically silent all the way, except for Tiffy who was trying to break it. Once they got to Hogsmeade, Michelle, Pansy, and Blaise all walked to Olivia's All-Occasion Robes. Pansy went in first, Blaise and Michelle following.
"Do you ladies need any help?" Olivia – the store owner – asked politely.
"Yeah, do you have Gryffindor robes here?" asked Pansy.
Olivia glanced at Michelle's tie quickly before nodding, "For all of you?"
"Yes," Michelle said, noticing that Olivia glanced at her tie as Pansy elbowed her ribs hard.
"Alright, come to the back with me," Olivia said, leading to another part of the shop. The girls followed her and Olivia pointed to one of the stools. "Each of you hop up on one, and Miss, can you leave your Tiffler and bag on the floor?"
Michelle glared at Olivia before taking Tiffy off her shoulder and putting her in the bag. She then carefully placed her bag on the ground.
Olivia measured Pansy first, Blaise second, and finally Michelle. She took all the usual measurements – length of arms, around the bust and waist, length from hips to legs, that sort of thing. "OK, umm, the girl with dark hair – the one I measured first – and the girl with the Slytherin tie, look on the second rack in the shop area where the Hogwarts robes are located – any of the Gryffindor robes should do. And girl with the blonde hair, look on the third rack – same as I said for the fitting."
Pansy and Blaise went back into the shop area and Michelle hung back. "I also need to know where I can get these sizes," she said, pulling out Draco, Crabbe, and Goyle's robes.
"Hmm…look on racks seven and eight," Olivia said, looking at the robes before handing them back to Michelle who went into the front room after her friends.

"I can't believe Pansy and Michelle came up with this stuff," Draco said, holding up a bottle of Michnsy.
"Me either. Well actually, I could see Michelle because she's one smart cookie, but Pansy! She's not the brightest crayon in the box, now is she?" agreed Harry.
"No, she isn't!" laughed Draco, taking a drink. "But she sure is good in bed if you know what I mean."
"Yeah, I know, she sure is easy. I think she's been in the sack with every guy in our house and year more than once. I think she and Goyle even shagged a few times when he was still with 'Elle," Harry said, taking another drink as well.
"That's because she never puts out."
"And that's because she wants to keep her virginity until she's married or something, I really don't know."
"What's the point? Everyone thinks she does it all the time, why not live up to it?"
"Because I told her that whoever takes her virginity, would loose their balls," Harry looked at Draco. "You haven't shagged her yet, have you?"
"No sir," Draco said, saluting to Harry. "But I do want to, she has the greatest body I've ever seen, even if I haven't see it without clothes on, I love her so much you know."
"Do you really? Or are you lying to me?"
"Swear it on behalf of Slytherin."
"That's good enough for me, so you can be the first guy to see her naked. You have my blessings."
"Great," said Draco, slapping Harry's shoulder.
"Do you realize that if you two were to get married, we'd be brother-in-laws?" asked Harry, giving Zippy some Michnsy because he was waiting so patiently to get some.
"That would be cool, but odd because my best friend would know that I was shagging his sister every night."
"Ah, disturbing images!"
Draco laughed. "So what are you going as for the dance?"
"Prince Charming and Cinderella, or so Padma says."
"Both of them at the same time?"
"No, I'm going to be Cinderella and Padma's going to be Prince Charming," Harry slurred. "Wait, the other way around I mean."
Draco laughed again. "So is Padma getting you your costume?"
"Yes sir, she is."
"I thank God for women; they do our shopping for us!"
"I drink to that!" laughed Harry, raising his bottle of Michnsy like he was giving a toast.
--Friday, October 31st, 1997--
"Oh my God Michelle, you look so much like Granger! And you didn't have to use the Polyjuice Potion," Pansy said.
"I know! Who knew that if I just died my hair brown, put on some make-up to change my skin complexion, and didn't straighten my hair, that I could look like Granger?" Michelle said, looking at herself in the mirror.
"How do I look?" asked Blaise, spinning.
"Almost like Lavender, except for the eyes, but oh well, whatever. That's the same thing with Michelle…" Pansy said. "What about me?"
"Just like Parvati. Or Padma, whoever," Michelle replied, ruffling her hair a bit more. "And no, my eyes are brown; I just changed them to copy of my father's."
--
"God Crabbe, your attempt at looking like Thomas is pitiful," Draco said, eyeing Crabbe.
"Duh, he's dark, I can't change my skin," Crabbe said.
"Idiot," Draco muttered. "Good job Goyle, you could almost pass as Finnigan."
"Thanks, you look like umm...Weasley a lot," Goyle said.
"No shit moron. Whatever, let's go wait for the girls in the common room."
--
"My God, I look like such a retard," Harry muttered to himself as he looked at himself in the mirror. He was wearing a white jacket (like the one that prince guy in Cinderella wears), and tan trousers, topped off with a prince's crown.
"You do," Zippy said, flying about the room.
"Shut it Zippy," Harry growled, throwing the crown against the wall that separated his and Hermione's rooms
Hermione came rushing into Harry's room, looking - in Harry's opinion - absolutely gorgeous in her fairy costume which included a short, tight skirt, wings, and her hair done up in a bun with strands of hair running down her glittered face. "What did you do?"
Harry had to try to keep his jaw shut, but he quickly regained his composure. "I just got mad at Zippy over there."
Hermione looked at Harry and smirked. "Nice erm...outfit."
"Great, even the gorgeous Mudblood thinks I look stupid!"
"Gorgeous Mudblood, am I?"
"You are, and you know it," Harry said, pulling Hermione into a deep kiss.
Hermione didn't resist Harry at all, instead, she melted right into the kiss and Harry's arms easier then she had before on their stolen kisses. Harry pulled away from Hermione - he was going to try to go further later - but right now, he needed to get ready.
"Get out of here, I need to finish getting ready," Harry said, pushing Hermione out of the room, slapping her butt and locking the door. "Now Zippy, you're going to stay in here while I'm gone, or you can find Tiffy, but you can't come to the dance."
Zippy stuck out his tongue at Harry and zoomed around the room angrily.
--
"Wow 'Elle, you really look like Granger, it's going to be weird kissing you all night," Draco said when Michelle, Pansy, and Blaise came down from the dorm and Millicent Bulstrode slammed the door shut, Emma Dobbs standing behind her.
"Well look at you luv, you look like Weasley, I don't know if I'll be able to kiss you tonight," Michelle replied.
"You can pretend you're doing the bet," Pansy suggested, grabbing Goyle's hand and walking out of the common room, Blaise and Crabbe following.
"I miss your blonde hair," Michelle whined, running a hand through Draco's now red hair before kissing him.
"Well I miss your red hair," Draco said, tucking a stranding of Michelle's hair behind her ear, and kissing her back.
"Don't worry; it'll be back to red by midnight...when we could do something in your dorm..."
"'Elle! Are you suggesting that we have sex tonight?!"
"Depends...because I really want you tonight, all of you...Now let's go to the dance," Michelle said, grabbing Draco's hand.
"Can't we just stay here?" whined Draco even though laughter was shining in his grey orbs.
"No, let's go," Michelle said, dragging Draco out of the common room.
--
"Hello my darling Cinderella," Harry said, kissing Padma's hand when they met up in the Entrance Hall.
"Why hello my Prince," Padma giggled while Harry fought the urge to roll his eyes into his head.
"Shall we go in my darling?" he asked, linking his arm with Padma's.
"Of course," Padma said, smiling at Harry.
Harry led Padma into the Great Hall where there were posters and pictures of moving monsters on the walls; pumpkins and candles floating in the air; moving creatures in the corners; and the ceiling filled with the darkening sky. Up front, the Weird Sisters were playing.
"God, it's so cool in here. It reminds me of the Yule Ball," Padma said, looking at some of the tables set off to the side with drinks and chairs.
"I think this is how all their dances are. Hell, I didn't know we had dances!" Harry said, taking Padma's hand and taking her to the dance floor.
"I didn't either," Padma remarked.
Over at the doors to the Great Hall, Michelle and Draco just walked in and Parvati and Lavender moved over to them like a magnet.
"Hermione, why aren't you dressed up? It said you had to dress up!" cried Parvati when she and Lavender reached Draco and Michelle.
Michelle silently laughed; Parvati and Lavender thought she really was Hermione Granger!
"Except who's this guy with you, Hermione? He's not Ron," Lavender said, looking Draco up and down in disgust.
"This is Ron, he's just changed his appearance a bit for his costume," Michelle said. "But listen ho-girls, Ron and I are going to go sign up for the costume contest thing."
"OK," Parvati said, glancing at Lavender with a raised eyebrow.
Michelle took Draco's hand and led him to a sheet where students got to enter their names to try and win a prize for their costume. Only a few of the seventh year students had already signed up when the two reached the sheet. Draco wrote his and Michelle's name down while Michelle went off to find Harry.
"Hey Harry, nice costume," Michelle said sarcastically.
"You already told me that earlier," Harry replied coolly. "And since when were we on a first name basis?"
Padma quickly whispered something in Harry's ear before skirting away. Michelle put her hand on her hip and looked at Harry who smirked.
"What happened to that skimpy outfit you had on earlier? Never mind...why don't you say we go out to the Hall for a bit?" he asked, grabbing Michelle around the waist.
Michelle wiggled out of Harry's grasp and slapped him. At that same moment though, Draco showed up and wrapped an arm around Michelle's waist. Harry massaged his cheek.
"What was that for Granger?" asked Harry.
"I'm not Granger! I'm your' fucking twin sister!" exclaimed Michelle. "And I'd rather not snog you, thank you very much."
"'Elle?"
"No, it's fucking Mona Lisa."
"Good costume, and let me guess, this clown is Malfoy."
"Har, har, Potter, I'm supposed to be the Weasel," Draco said.
"Same thing mate," Harry said, shrugging. "Now, if you two don't mind, I need to go find my date."
Michelle and Draco watched Harry walk away before going off to find their friends.
A few hours later, after a lot of punch and dancing, Dumbledore stood on a platform. "Ahem, if I could have your attention please."
The students stopped talking (there currently wasn't any music playing) and looked up at their headmaster.
"Ah, yes, I see you are all enjoying yourselves immensely. But now, it's time for our annual costume contest that takes place just for the seventh year students," Dumbledore said. "Now, when I call your name, will you please take a step onto the platform we have here that I myself am standing on. Line up starting on the far side of the platform and a spin of some sort for us."
Michelle and Draco made their way over to Harry and Padma while Dumbledore called out the first names.
"Did you sign up, you guys?" asked Michelle.
"Hell no! I told Padma that I wasn't going up there like this," Harry replied.
"I don't know why though, he's so cute!" Padma said, looking at Harry adoringly.
Draco snickered and Michelle just smirked at Harry's growl. Harry put his face near Michelle's ear as in a whisper.
"It's because I'm stepping down from this so you'll step down from the bet," Harry whispered before pulling away.
Michelle looked at Harry and then looked away again in frustration while Draco and Padma looked at the two in confusion.
"Next, we have Michelle Potter as Hermione Granger and Draco Malfoy as Ron Weasley," Dumbledore said, rereading what he just read.
Michelle grabbed Draco's hand and walked up the platform next to a Hufflepuff female that Michelle recognized as Susan Bones under her gruesome vampire costume of dried blood and fangs. When Michelle looked out in the small crowd of about twenty students, she spotted Hermione glaring up at her with an arm of Ron's loosely around her waist.
"Now we have, ahem, Hermione Granger as a fairytale pixie and Ron Weasley as a circus clown," Dumbledore said.
A few students laughed at Ron's get-up which consisted of his hair done up in a fro with multi-coloured streaks, some really baggy spotted pants, and a white button up shirt that matched the pants, topped off with rainbow suspenders and a squirt flower hanging out of his pocket. Michelle tried to push the thoughts she had about Ron aside, but failed. She just figured she'd be able to get him out of her head later that night with Draco.
After a few more names and half the seventh year population were on the platform, Dumbledore walked over to the other judges of McGonagall, Snape, Flitwick, and Sprout, to discus who they believed looked the best.
Harry was hoping Michelle would win so she would step aside for Harry to win the bet - he knew he could win it. Padma leaned in closer to Harry.
"I hope one of our sisters' win," Padma said as she looked up at her twin dressed up in a flower gown and crown that had tiny flowers sewn onto it (she was supposed to be Mother Earth).
"Yeah," Harry said, also looking at Parvati and thinking she couldn't win.
Dumbledore walked up to Michelle and pulled her away from the other students.
"Did you use the Polyjuice Potion?" he asked.
"Sir, I'm offended. Of course not! I wouldn't have had enough time to make one if I wanted to. But I wouldn't have if I could've," Michelle said, putting a hand on her chest in that offended way that people do.
"Quite sorry Ms. Potter, go back on the platform," Dumbledore said, walking back over to the judges.
Michelle stood back onto the platform with the help of Draco who looked at her. Dumbledore stood up at the front.
"Sorry for the wait, we have the winners. In third place, we have Justin Flinch-Fletchy for his zombie outfit. In second, we have Hermione Granger for her pixie costume. And in first place for her original idea of being Hermione Granger, Michelle Potter," Dumbledore said. "And she wins fifty-six Galleons as the prize."
"That's an odd number," Michelle said, tacking the bag of gold from Dumbledore.
"Ah, yes, it just came into my head for some reason," replied Dumbledore. "Now, it's time for you all to turn in, no wondering about. Good-night."
Michelle and Draco walked over to Harry and Padma.
"Congratulations Michelle," Padma said. "Um listen Harry, I'm going to go now, I had a great time." She looked past the open doors before kissing Harry's lips swiftly and leaving.
"Good job, now you can drop out of the bet and let me win it," Harry said, throwing an arm over his sister's should as the three made their way out of the Hall. "I'm only saying this cause I know if you tried, you could get Ron in bed in two minutes."
"Harry..." Michelle started.
"No, come on, we were going to split the money anyways, now you got your own share, I just need to shag Granger."
"You two were going to split the money and not include me?" asked Draco, clearly offended.
"Yes, because we'd get more money that way," Michelle said.
"True, so true, and so smart, that's why I love you," Draco replied, kissing Michelle's lips as Harry tried to get his arm off of Michelle's shoulder.
Michelle laughed. "Then you should love Harry, it was his idea."
"Nah, he's not a woman, nor is he hot in my eyes."
Harry grinned. "That's good that you don't love me, but I'm going to go and try to get Granger in my bed. 'Night."
"'Night," Michelle and Draco said together.
Draco grabbed Michelle's hand as they continued walking down the stairs to the dungeon. "Speaking of getting in bed..."
"How do we get the guys out of your dorm?" asked Michelle.
"I'll just shove them out of the dorm or something."
"OK..."
"Wow, your hair is changing back to red. I like your red hair," Draco said, twirling some of Michelle's hair on his finger. "And listen to me, I sound like a drunken man."
Michelle just laughed as she pulled Draco into the common room.
