(Not enough questions thought about to make a FAQ thingy)
That's right, so ask your questions away! And I need to continue on with my "A Hole in Time" story at some stage too anyway. But I hope you like the story, sorry if it doesn't go your way YET. There are lots of surprises up my sleeve… except that I don't have a sleeve. Yayness, almost 30 (or is it already by now) reviews! I don't know why, but I have this stupid grin on my face every time someone reviewed the story as good! (People around me start to move away at least 5 metres… why is that? Just kidding…)
I also update as fast, and as much as I can. Probably I'll still update daily! Recommend the story to your friends though...
This chapter records one event from 4 views, quite an interesting method of writing for me to try out. Sorry if Harry seems a bit dumb/out of character. And I promise I'll put in the great Draco Malfoy at some stage… and I'll try to make Blaise like Hermione a bit quicker than I planned. I just noticed something too, I pretty much only like Hermione/-insert Slytherin here- relationships, excepting Hermione/Harry or something with an old guy turning young/Hermione using the Time Turner/go back in time. I don't really like Ginny as the main character, and I shudder at the thought of Ginny Zabini. Hey, that rhymes, and sounds good. But I won't really like the story… I just don't like the character Ginny, okay?
Now, Ron and Hermione together, as Rowling have seemingly planned out, I used to like. But then I start to get sick of it, and I think Ron is not good enough for Hermione. But a Slytherin will be… well… Harry was considered to be put in Slytherin by the Sorting Hat for a moment… does that count? Personally, I think Ron should be in Hufflepuff, Hermione kinda belongs in Gryffindor… she is quite brave, and I don't know… just random thoughts and stuff.
'Hermione, move over. There's not much room for me here.' Harry said to me while we walked under the Invisibility Cloak.
'There's not much space for me either Harry, did you forget that people grow?'
'Yeah, but if Filch sees walking legs… he can guess what's invisible on the top… then he could confiscate this. Why do we need the cloak on anyway? We're not trespassing or anything…'
'Well then, let's try NOT to go near Filch shall we? I just want to avoid pretty much most of the Hogwarts students. Here, Harry, we'll split up here, go to that abandoned classroom, then wear the robe.' I instructed. Then I walked off.
Harry seemed to know where it is, but I can't see him for the fact that his whole body was covered with the Invisibility Cloak.
I walked a few metres; let's say ten, away from the classroom, to cause less suspicion. I waited and waited for Harry to finally mutate… err… turn into Zabini.
I looked over at the people walking from the direction of the abandoned classroom.
'Bulstrode, Katie Bell, Abbott, MacMillan… Zabini… wait, that must be Harry!' I thought.
I hurried towards Harry, and pulled his arm.
'Come on Harry, hurry up! It might feel weird and all, but it'll be over soon.'
'Back off Granger, I'm not Potter. I'm Blaise Zabini.' Harry joked.
'Wow, you even sound like Zabini. Now hurry up, before the crowd goes away.'
'But…' Harry complained.
'I know, I know. It will feel weird kissing your best friend won't it?'
Harry broke his arm off mine. 'Look here, Granger. I. Am. ZABINI.' Harry tried to get away.
'Hey, you can't do that! I promised to help you with Cho, remember?'
I heard Harry mutter the line of 'So Potter has the hots for Chang…'
'Harry, stop with all the "pretending to be Zabini"… come on, the crowd's gonna be gone!'
People saw us together, and out of instinct made a circle around us. I looked around; there was no teacher in sight. Then I leaned forward and kissed Harry.
(Blaise's POV of the same event)
Did I tell Granger to come by here tonight? Because I forgotten to put in one extra ingredient while I'm at it… would that spoil the potion? I shrugged, since it's not me who'll drink it anyway. But I can imagine Granger trying to kill me if Potter turns into a giant dog or something… Does she even expect me to do that? I mean, come on. I'm not THAT immature that I'll pull a lame prank as "turn Potter into a dog". I took the potion; it was quite heavy and steaming. Now, how do I bring THIS over to the Slytherin Common Room?
As I walked halfway, somehow NOT attracting attention I realised something. I should've brought the ingredients there, not bring the potion towards it! I sighed with annoyance, and walked back to the abandoned classroom, saying to anyone who asks "This is an extra Potions task. Want to help me?" Anyone would shake their head, and then run off; in case I remember I met them. Probably they also think I'm a bit of a freak… but that can be fixed. Not that anyone would be seeing it anyway, since I used an Invisibility Spell on the cauldron (and the potion). Everyone still looked towards me though, pulling an invisible-to-them cauldron with much effort. But at least they don't know about the potion…
I went into the classroom. I looked at the floor, with some muddy shoeprints that lead first into, but a second set went out of the room.
'Potter was here…' I thought. No one else's shoeprints would be THAT muddy… no offence Potter, but do you wash your shoes? Wait, where would he be going?
I put the cauldron on the table, and walked normally towards the Slytherin Common Room. Then all of the sudden Granger came out of nowhere and pulled my arm.
'Come on Harry, hurry up! It might feel weird and all, but it'll be over soon.' Granger said. Oh great, now she thinks I'm Potter
'Back off Granger, I'm not Potter. I'm Blaise Zabini.' I announced.
'Wow, you even sound like Zabini. Now hurry up, before the crowd goes away.'
'But…' I started, but then she cut me off.
'I know, I know. It will feel weird kissing your best friend won't it?'
I broke my arm off hers. I don't wanna kiss Granger! 'Look here, Granger. I. Am. ZABINI.' I tried to escape, fast.
'Hey, you can't do that! I promised to help you with Cho, remember?' she said, not letting go of me.
'So Potter has the hots for Chang…' I muttered. Interesting…
'Harry, stop with all the "pretending to be Zabini"… come on, the crowd's gonna be gone!'
Somehow, probably because they saw us TOGETHER, everyone gathered a circle. Well, it was more of a blob-like shape, but theorically (is that even a word?) they're trying to form a circle.
Then suddenly Granger went towards me and kissed me.
……
Hey…
I didn't know Granger could French-kiss…
(Harry's POV of this event again)
Me and Hermione squeezed (A/N: I know it's wrong grammar, the correct one is "Hermione and I", but does Harry look like the person who cares?) under my Invisibility Cloak.
'Hermione, move over. There's not much room for me here.' I said to her.
'There's not much space for me either Harry, did you forget that people grow?'
'Yeah, but if Filch sees walking legs… he can guess what's invisible on the top… then he could confiscate this. Why do we need the cloak on anyway? We're not trespassing or anything…' I argued.
'Well then, let's try NOT to go near Filch shall we? I just want to avoid pretty much most of the Hogwarts students. Here, Harry, we'll split up here, go to that abandoned classroom, then wear the robe.' Hermione told me. Then I walked off, remembering pretty much the simple instructions. Go to the classroom, drink potion, change robe, simple.
I looked towards the table where Hermione said she saw Blaise put all the ingredients. I didn't see any potions there… But then I remembered I left the Slytherin robe in the Gryffindor Common Room, drats! I'll look for the potion later…
I walked off, and then saw my muddy shoeprints; I'll wipe them off later. Not like I don't wash my shoes anyway… I do, at least a couple times every year…
I finally reached the Common Room, but I forgotten the password, again. Wait, was it Mumblemus Mesotopomia? Or Mugglelus Mediterranean? Then I finally got it on the last try, gaining me access to my own Common Room. Geez, if they saw us in Gryffindor robes, they should at least let us in… Wait, I know why they set the password. It's so people like Hermione can't create robes out of nothing, then just enter another house's common room just like that. Probably that's why they set passwords…
I looked around where I could've misplaced, not lost the robe. I searched everywhere, high and low, even the ceiling. Wait, why would it be floating on the ceiling? Then I finally found it, guess where? Uh… you'll probably never guess. Yes, it was in… forget it. Let's just move on.
I went back to the abandoned classroom. A cauldron that wasn't there before was put on the table. That must be the Polyjuice Potion…
Ew… it's bubbling more than that time in the 2nd year when Hermione made it. I wasn't so sure about drinking it anymore… I mean, come on. Who would just drink a potion which appeared out of nowhere.
Well… probably this is Zabini's potion. Well, it's not like I trust Zabini or anything. And what if it's not Zabini's, and Voldemort is trying to poison me with an "out-of-nowhere" potion? Nah… that would be too easy and I KNOW Voldemort puts more effort in his plans.
I looked towards the other direction of the corridor from the common room. Hermione and You-Know-Who Zabini were doing You-Know-What in front of however many students! I pinched one of my cheeks. This is just a nightmare and I'll wake up… right?
(What really happened- Events in order…)
First Blaise finished the potion already, only to discover he left out one ingredient. He put an Invisibility Spell on the potion & cauldron, and pulled it towards his common room.
Now, Harry walked into the classroom, and couldn't find the potion. He also noticed that he didn't bring the robe, and walked off to HIS common room.
Halfway, Blaise decided it was a waste of time, and returned to the abandoned classroom. He noticed Harry went in, but walked out.
Hermione waited, on one of the corridors, and didn't notice Blaise previously, because she was too bored waiting.
Harry is currently looking for the robe all around the common room.
Blaise walked out to get to his common room and get the missing ingredient. Then Hermione saw him, and thought he was Harry, and pulled him into the act.
Harry finally found his robe, and is on his way to the abandoned classroom.
Hermione and Blaise argued about "I am Blaise Zabini" and "Stop joking!"
Harry noticed the potion, but hesitated to drink it. (Good thing too, since Blaise haven't put one ingredient in, and god knows what Harry will turn to… Don't even think about it, okay?)
Harry got out of the classroom, and saw Blaise and Hermione kissing.
(Err… you understand now… don't you? I said DON'T YOU? That's right, you do.)
