Chapter Four

Dinner Guest and a Late Night Chat

"What the hell are you so happy about?" Pansy asked Draco as she took a seat next to him at their table in the great hall.

"Just having a little fun with the Mudblood." Draco said as he blew a kiss to Hermione at the next table. Hermione sneered and started to make a gagging motion. "This year may not be all that bad, I can easily torture her any time I want."

"Looks like you want to do more than just torture her." Pansy said as she looked over at the Gryffindor table. Her eyes remained on a certain red head who was talking to a few guys she knew to be on his quidditch team. He looked over at her and she quickly averted her eyes.

"Looks like he isn't the only one." Blaise said as he looked at the Gryffindor table.

"Speaking of which, did you enjoy my little house pairings?" Draco asked as he continued to make sexual gestures to piss off Hermione.

Pansy eyes grew large as she remembered she was paired with Ron for prefect duties. "THAT WAS YOU!" She said through clenched teeth.

"No need to thank me Pansy, I'm almost positive you would have done the same evil thing to me if the shoe were on the other foot."

She looked away, he was right. If she were given the opportunity she would have definitely put him with someone he had a crush on, just to make him uneasy. However, embarrassment was a feeling that Draco did not posses. He could take any situation and turn it around so that he looked cool and collected.

"Well...you're still an ass for doing that." she said as she pouted.

"Pansy, were Slytherins we don't pout we get even." Blaise whispered in her ear.

Pansy nodded and a smirk appeared on her face. "That a girl." Blaise said into her ear.

The doors of the great hall flew open and in walked Professor McGonagall with a group of frightened first years. One however caught her eye. He was a lot taller than the other students and was very handsome. He didn't seem nervous at all but rather over confident. He walked behind the rest of the first years and winked at her when he caught her eye.

The sorting hat was placed on the stool and began to go into his annual song. "I hate that damn hat, he's such a show off." Blaise whispered into Pansy ear as she covered her mouth to stifle her giggles. The hat finished and everyone clapped except for a few of the Slytherins.

"When I call your name, you will place the hat on your head and be sorted into your house." Professor McGonagall declared.

"Ada, Leala."

A rather chunky girl walked fourth and was sorted into "HUFFLEPUFF!" the hat shouted, the girl ran to sit with her table. The sorting went on for a few more minutes and ended with each house receiving ten to twelve students. The only student who remained was the tall handsome boy, who didn't look British at all. The headmaster, Professor Dumbledore, stood up and walked to the podium.

"As you all can see we are not in the least bit finished with our sorting. However, with our last student, Kai Masenfer, I thought an introduction would be necessary. Kai has come to us from the United States and is in his seventh year. I would like to ask you all to make him feel welcome no matter what house he is sorted into." The headmaster took his seat and all eyes turned to the new student.

"Please step forward and place the hat on your head." Professor McGonagall said as the raven haired boy as he stepped forward to place the hat on his head. It took the hat a long time to come to his decision but in the end, he was placed into "SLYTHERIN," the hat shouted.

The Slytherin table erupted into cheers and Kai walked over to join his new house. He sat across from Pansy and winked as he took his seat.

"Welcome back students. I wish to say a few words before our feast begins. Again the Forbidden forest has that name for a reason. Also, our caretaker Mr. Filch has informed me that over fifty new items have been placed on his list of prohibited items, thanks in part I'm sure to the Weasley twins." Many students began to giggle at this. "With that said, let's eat." Food magically appeared on the tables and everyone began to eat and talk with their housemates.

"This is Draco Malfoy, Pansy Parkinson, and I'm Blaise Zabini." Blaise said to Kai. They each shook the new students' hand, but when he took Pansy he kissed hers softly.

"So… what school did you come from?" Blaise said to Kai.

"I came from Flemington Academy of Wizardry a small school in Florida."

Blaise and Draco started to choke on their food and had to take a swig of their pumpkin juice before continuing.

"You went to an all male school?" Draco asked Kai.

"Yes, but there was a female magical school a few blocks down." He said as he smiled at Pansy who blushed but continued to eat her food.

"Hey do you play quidditch? We really need a new Beater, Draco here is the captain." Blaise said changing the subject.

"Yeah I play, I'm actually a rather good Beater." He said as he continued to eat.

"Than it's settled you are the new Slytherin beater opposite Zabini." Draco said as he ate a large piece of chicken.

For the rest of the feast the boys continued to talk about quidditch as Pansy stole glances of Ron at the Gryffindor table.

"Excuse me, but all students should be in their rooms as of ten minutes ago." Pansy said to the tall student who was walking a few feet in front of her. The student suddenly stopped and turned to face her, she found herself starring at a seventh year red head. "I'm sorry, I thought you were a student sneaking out for a late night snog session," She stated as she caught up with Ron.

"I see someone takes their job seriously." He said to the Slytherin girl before him.

"Where were you coming from?" Pansy questioned.

"Not that it's any of your business, but I just came from seeing Madam Pomfrey."

"No need to get snappy Ron, I just asked a question. I heard you were sick early today and then you left the feast a little early as well."

"So…were you spying on me Pansy?" Ron said with an amused expression.

After becoming the Gryffindor captain last year, Ron had received his fair share of glances from the opposite sex. However, he rarely took girls up on the offer. Only a few were able to obtain his attention, but none had lasted long enough to mention.

He now looked the Slytherin up and down and noticed how much see had changed since their first year of school. It seemed she had grown out of her ugly pug-face phase. And now a beautiful girl had stood before him, he felt the sexual tension between them and wondered if the feeling was mutual.

"No… uh… you just happened to be in my line of vision, so don't flatter yourself." She said with an heir of confidence she knew she didn't have at the moment.

He looked at her for a second as if contemplating what he was going to say next.

"Well Pansy, seeing as you should be asleep. Why are you up at this time?" He crossed his arms over his chest awaiting her reply.

"Well if you must know, I was heading to the prefect bathroom for a late night splash. Want to join me?" she stated nonchalantly.

"Uh…" Ron looked at her speechless.

"Close your mouth, I was just kidding." She gently pushed his jaw up.

"Pansy."

"Yeah."

"I don't mean to be rude, but why are you talking to me? We have been going to school for six years and if I'm correct this is the longest conversation we've had. My only question is why?"

"Well…um…I…."

"Thought so." Ron said as he turned to walk towards his common room leaving the girl behind him.

The blonde hair Slytherin grabbed his arm to stop him from walking.

"I just wanted to get to known you better. I mean, we will have prefect duties together for a whole year and I wanted us to be comfortable with one another."

"Let's get one thing straight Pansy, you and I won't be friends. You and I aren't going to form some sort of bond. You and I are going treat each other like we have been for six years, like the other is invisible."

"Well aren't you a bundle of sunshine."

"Get used to it, I'm not changing for the girl everyone calls the ice princess."

"Ice Princess, yeah that's so much worse than being called a weasel."

Ron sighed he didn't want to be angry with Pansy. "Look, I'm just having a bad day, I didn't mean to take it out on you."

"Anything I can help you with?" Pansy asked sincerely.

"Slytherins don't help."

"What's your problem?" Pansy said dryly. "Not all Slytherins are bad, that's like saying all Gryffindors are brave, and from what I hear your deathly afraid of spiders."

"Who told you that?"

"You know us EVIL Slytherins have our ways." Pansy said mockingly.

"Well that's a lie."

"Is it really, because there's a spider right there." Pansy pointed behind Ron.

"WHERE?" Ron's eyes quickly darted back and fourth along the corridor desperately searching for tiny legs. He quickly stopped looking when he heard Pansy start to laugh at him. He looked up at the girl and started to laugh as well.

"Yeah Ron that was a total lie."

They both continued to laugh.

Through their laughter Ron could hear the faint sounds of a cat meowing, he's eyes began to grow as he realized who the owner of the sound was. He quickly placed his hand on the mouth of Pansy and pulled her into an unlocked classroom. Pansy eyes filled with horror as she felt Ron's hands grab her swiftly. Once inside the classroom Ron let Pansy go but not before he whispered for her to stay quiet.

"What the hell is your problem?" Pansy sneered as she stepped away from Ron's grasp.

He put his index finger to her mouth to silence her and pointed towards the door. They both walked over to the door quietly as they heard footsteps approaching.

"I know your here, come out come out." Filch stated to the now empty corridor.

Pansy pulled Ron down on the floor and they rested there head against the door, both to afraid to breath. After a couple of minutes passed and they could no longer hear Filch outside of the door, they each slowly began to breathe warily.

"Do you think he's gone?" Pansy whispered.

"Yeah I think so." Ron whispered back.

"Well maybe we should go back to our rooms."

"Yeah."

"Uh… Ron I'm going to need my hand back, unless you want to see the inside of the Slytherin common room." She said with a smile.

He quickly looked down and saw that he was holding her hand, he let it go and smiled at her.

"Sorry."

"No problem." Pansy stated as she returned his smile.

They both stood up and exited the room to find the corridor empty. Ron turned to go back to common room, however he found that Pansy had once again grabbed his arm softly

"Thanks for that." she said as she stared into Ron's eyes.

"For what?" Ron looked confused.

"For not leaving me alone in the hallway to get caught by that bloody cat." She smiled as she gently kissed Ron on the cheek. She turned and walked down the hallway, leaving behind a very confused Gryffindor.

"Where have you been?" Blaise asked as she entered the Slytherin common room minutes later.

She simply replied. "On a date."

Awww fluffy ending I know, but hey Pansy a girl and is therefore entitled to a few moments of fluffiness. Now is the time where you all review and make me feel great about writing, just kidding.
