Steam poured out of the bathroom door as Kerkera came out. She was wrapped in a fluffy white towel and her hair fell over her shoulders in blackened curls.

"Draco" she smiled. Draco, who was lying on the bed reading, looked up and nearly fell backwards off the bed.

"Whow," he said, "Aren't you meant to be wearing clothes?"

"I just came in here to get a hairbrush," she said matter-of-factly. "What? Complaining?" Draco tried to keep down a small blush, "Oh, and I also wanted to know something,"

"What?" sighed Draco, trying to ignore the fact that the towel was hanging so low and that her bikini was slipping down.

"What do you want me to wear tonight?" she asked, looking in the mirror and running the brush through her hair.

"Why does it matter?" shrugged Draco, still trying to concentrate on his book.

"Well…" sighed Kerkera, sending small droplets falling to the floor as she shook her head, "I would of liked to have known what you liked me in, that's all,"

Draco looked up at her as she walked into the bathroom,

"But as you opinion doesn't seem to matter I guess I'll have to decide on my own," she sighed over the top, "Oh, and don't come in, I don't want you seeing my outfit yet!"

"Fine, whatever," sighed Draco. As soon the bathroom door was shut he fell onto his back and sighed. God she looked good! Then, realizing what he had just thought, Draco mentally smacked himself.

After about an hour Draco was standing by the bed, dressed in a half buttoned shirt and black jeans, waiting for Kerkera to come out of the bathroom. Finally the door swung open. Kerkera was wearing a black corset style dress with pixie style pieces of torn black material hanging off the bottom. The back was done up by criss-crossed string so you could see her back. Her hair was pulled back into a ponytail, held up by a clip, with a few strands hanging out. She was wearing black tights and knee high black boots. The whole look was finished off by a single diamond necklace and matching earrings. Draco stared at her, but before he could comment the door flew open as Blaise came in, wearing almost the same as Draco, except his shirt was black.

"Kerkera!" he beamed, standing next to Draco and examining her, "You look gorgeous darling!"

"Thanks," smiled Kerri, looking at Draco (and his sexy body! WHOOT!),

"Draco!" sighed Blaise over the top, "Ain't you going to shower this woman in the praise she deserves?"

Draco stayed quiet. This was not the right time to speak; if he did he might say things that would ruin his reputation.

"Well if you won't honour our darling Kerri, then I will," smiled Blaise, taking Kerri's chin," With a kiss," he whispered.

Draco's fist suddenly appeared out of nowhere, giving Blaise a punch in the cheek.

"The way you say it," sneered Draco, (Blaise in background oww man that hurt!) "It makes you sound both queer and perverted,"

He looked up at Kerkera, who wasn't quite sure what had just happened, and nodded towards the door, "Shall we go?"

"'kay," smiled Kerkera, "And remember to introduce me as your distant cousin Kerri,"

"Will do," sighed Draco, opening the door, "Come on Blaise, you wimp,"

"Yeah, yeah," laughed Blaise, earning a kick out of the door by Draco.

Kerri smiled and followed Blaise out the door. Draco shut the door and looked briefly out the window. This was the place where he had first met Kerkera, hissing and clawing to get away. It dawned on him that lately she hadn't tried to escape. Maybe she was adjusting.

"Come on mate! Or they'll start without us!" laughed Blaise, "Ma' lady," he smirked, offering his arm to Kerri. Draco rushed down before Kerkera could move, and pushed Blaise out the way. Kerri looked at him, and then placed her hand gently on his arm.

The party had just started when they arrived. The music and lights dazzled Kerri and she held back. There were to many people here. Draco noticed how tense she was and shook her slightly. "Come on, you look great"

"Thanks," she smiled, and then she walked straight into the middle of the dance floor. Draco looked round at Blaise, but he was literally being swallowed up by the crowd of girls.

"Draco!" called Kerri, from the dance floor, "Come on!"

Draco sighed, and then followed her voice into the crowd.

"Yes?" he smirked once he reached her,

"Let's dance," she said simply as the song ended,

"What?" laughed Draco, "No,"

"What, you scared?" teased Kerri, "You scared I'm gonna beat you at dancing,"

"Your on!" smirked Draco, tossing his hair back, and facing her, as a fast paced song started up.

Talk to me
Tell me your name
You blow me off like it's all the same
You lit a fuse and now I'm ticking away
Like a bomb
Yeah, Baby

Kerri span in towards Draco, then he grabbed her wrist and spun her out, then pulled her in against his chest,

Talk to me
Tell me your sign
You're switching sides like a Gemini
You're playing games and now you're hittin' my
heart
Like a drum
Yeah, Baby

Well if Lady Luck gets on my side
We're gonna rock this town alive
I'll let her rough me up
Till she knocks me out
She walks like she talks,
And she talks like she walks

Kerri wrapped her arm around Draco's neck and lift a leg up his thigh, and pulled herself up his body, blew him and kiss and stepped backwards,

And she bangs, she bangs
Oh baby
When she moves, she moves
I go crazy
'Cause she looks like a flower but she stings
like a bee
Like every girl in history
She bangs, she bangs

Kerri strutted behind Draco, and pushed him his knees, and, with a finger on his head, strutted around him, swinging her hips as she walked.

I'm wasted by the way she moves
No one ever looked so fine
She reminds me that a woman only got one thing on her mind

Draco jumped up and grabbed her waist, and quickly spun her round into his chest.


Talk to me
Tell me your name
I'm just a link in your daisy chain
Your rap sounds like a diamond
Map to the stars
Yeah, Baby

They side stepped, and Kerri flung her head back, then she turned and did a body roll, pressing against Draco,

Talk to me
Tell me the news
You wear me out like a pair of shoes
We'll dance until the band goes home
Then you're gone
Yeah, Baby

Well if it looks like love should be a crime
You'd better lock me up for life
I'll do the time with a smile on my face
Thinking of her in her leather and lace

Draco grabbed her arms, but she slipped down through his legs
Well if Lady Luck gets on my side
We're gonna rock this town alive
I'll let her rough me up
Till she knocks me out
Kerri pushed Draco down to his knees in front of her

She walks like she talks,
And she talks like she walks

And SHE BANGS!

Suddenly, Kerri's boot pushed Draco to the ground and her arm shot into the air. The applause was deafening. Draco looked up and say Kerkera beaming, her face flushed and eyes bright.

"You…you," panted Draco, standing up and smiling at her, "Where did you…? You were amazing,"

"Weren't so bad yourself," she smiled. She noticed that Draco's cheeks were red, "I'll go get us some drinks, if you get us a table,"

"Sure,"

Kerri walked to the buffet table that had been set up, and got a scoop of ice cubes and downed them in one. The lights were confusing her. She couldn't stay in one mode. Her eyes kept switching to night vision and back again; it was giving her a headache.

"Are you alright?" Kerkera froze, that wasn't Draco or Blaise's voice. She turned and saw a boy with messy black her staring at her.

"I'm fine, just a bit dizzy" she said calmly, but her brain was analysing this new character. But in this light, she couldn't tell what he was thinking through his eyes.

"I think you need to go outside for a bit," said the stranger.

"Yeah, see you later," she said, pushing past him and walking out the hall, and into the cool grounds,

"Hey wait!" called the boy, running after her.

"What do you want!" snapped Kerri, turning round to face him. The scare on his forehead stood out like hell.

"Where'd you get that?" she said stiffly. The boy stared at her in amazement,

" You don't know who I am?" he asked. Kerkera shook her head, the cold of the snow starting to make her quiver.

"I'm Harry,"

"Nice to meet you," Kerri lied,

"Ha," laughed Harry, taking of his coat, and starting to drape it round her shoulders.

"I don't need it," she snapped, pulling away her shoulder,

"You know," said Harry, coming close to her face, "that dance was totally arousing," he chuckled, pulling her face close. Kerri quickly turned her head, so his lips grazed her cheek,

"So," he said, pulling back, "Wanna play it like that, ay?"

"Play what like what?" asked Kerri, backing up,

"Don't worry," he smirked, coming so close Kerri could smell some kind of alcohol on his breath, "I like it rough,"

"Your drunk," she said, laughing nervously, backing up further. But her back hit a massive tree.

"Maybe," he smirked, putting his hands on either side of her head, and starting to part her legs, "But lets not tell anyone."

Kerkera screamed loudly, hoping to attract some attention, then she kicked out and ran. Harry backed up and followed. Kerkera ran, still screeching, wanting someone to hear, but then her boot hit a tree hit and she tripped. She lifted herself up, but the cold had started to tell her body to sleep. Kerri tried to shake it off, but her legs were numb. Suddenly, a pair of hands, snatched her shoulders, and flipped her over.

"Shut up bitch!" Harry shouted, "I promise you'll like it!"

"Help!" shrieked Kerri, as Harry started to strip her

In the hall, Draco lifted his head, he could hear something, but o one else seemed to. Kerkera hadn't come back. Something, deep inside, was telling him to go outside.

"Blaise," he said sharply, standing up,

"Yeah mate?" said Blaise, looking up form the two girls on his arms.

"Where's Kerkera?"

"I dunno," said Blaise, sensing the worry, "Why-,"

"Come on," snapped Draco, pulling Blaise up and running out the hall.

"Kerkera?" Draco shouted in the Entrance.

"Draco," said Blaise, who was standing still, listening. "What's that?"

They both listened. A quiet screaming was coming form outside. The boys looked at each other, then pushed the doors open. By a tree near the lake, a girl was shouting for help, a man running towards her.

"Kerri!" shouted the boys together,

"HELP!"

They ran at full speed towards Kerkera. Blaise tripped and Draco stumbled over him. When they looked up, the figure was taking of Kerkera's dress and tights.

"STOP!" Shouted Draco, charging at the boy.

"What the-," the boy looked up. Draco recognized him and leapt at him, pushing him backwards, punching him over and over.

"Bastard!" he yelled, "Never touch her again!"

With a final blow, Harry passed out. Draco stood up and kicked him, hard, in the groin. The unconscious body jerked.

"Draco!" called Blaise. Draco turned. Kerkera was lying in Blaise's arms, shaking, in her underwear. Draco rushed over and took her gently from Blaise.

"Kerri?" he whispered.

"Draco," she whispered, looking at him through half-closed eyes, "help me, he's after me,"

"Shh," shushed Draco, holding her close to him, wrapping her in Potter's disused cloak,

"He's here!" she shrieked, recognising the smell.

"Calm down," whispered Draco, hugging her tightly, "It's just a cloak,"

She relaxed slightly as Blaise helped Draco wrap it around her. Draco held her. It scared him to see her like this.

"What if he comes back?" she said in whispered fear,

"Don't worry," whispered Draco, shaking with cold and anger, "I won't let anyone get you,"

"Promise?" she said in a small voice,

He placed his chin on top of her head.

"I promise,"

A/n; soooo what do you think? I don't have much against Harry but I did think he would make the good bad guy for this section. I hope the story is going to start moving on at a faster pace now! R&R!
