Hey everyone. Sorry it's taken me so long to update, but with school starting right after i last posted and band and stage crew I just haven't had time to write the chapter. I know it's pretty short and I'll try and make the next couple longer. Sorry once again for making you all wait for a new chapter. Thanks for all the reviews. Now to the story! And i forgot to add a disclaimer so here it is...
I own nothing besides the exchange student, Carmen.
An Undiscovered Love
Chapter 5-Game Night
The next morning I was awoken by Ginny jumping on my bed to wake me. I looked at her groggily and then pulled the blankets over my head to try and go back to sleep.
"Oh no you don't missy!" Ginny said. She pulled all the blankets away from me and then dragged me out of bed. She pulled me towards the bathroom and shoved me in the shower. "Now you get a shower and I'll get your clothes for you" she reached in and turned the shower onto freezing cold, effectively waking me up.
"Ginny!" I yelled at her. It was pointless, however, seeing as how she was already out of the room. 'She's gonna pay for that. She better not pick dare during our game night.' I showered quickly and hopped out wrapping a towel around me. I looked over and found the clothes that Ginny had picked out for me. I put on my clothes and brushed my hair out. I put on some light makeup and went back to my room where I found Ginny, Carmen, Lavender, Parvati, and Luna all sitting around waiting for me.
"Finally! We have something to show you! Something we found in our tower. You're gonna flip when we show you, though most of us don't know what everything is" Luna said grinning. They all ushered me out into the hall. Once we got there they brought me to the staircase. In the past 2 days I never noticed that the stairs continued to spiral up after our floor. We all rushed up the stairs. There was a small hallway with 3 doors. We walked into the first on the right. It was a huge pool, the biggest I had ever seen.
"Wow! This is a huge pool. But I have a feeling this isn't what you all wanted to show me, is it?" I asked them. I got nods from each of them. I followed them and went to the room at the end of the hall. It was split into two sections. On one side was a huge gym filled with exercise equipment and a basketball court. On the other side was a hot tub that would be able to fit at least 20 people into it. There was also another smaller area which turned out to be a sauna. I looked at the girls. I could tell this wasn't the right room either. I headed back into the hall and opened the last door.
" OMG!" I said, "I think we found the perfect place for our night!" I said looking all around. It was a huge room. At one end was a fireplace with two couches and an assortment of chairs all around. On the side was a huge counter, divided into little sections and labeled with different things like candy, dessert, drinks, snacks, etc. Taped to the counter was a note.
This counter will give you any food you would life. Muggle or wizard. Just stand in front of the right category and think of what you would like. It will automatically appear in front of you. Have fun.
Yours Truly,
Albus Dumbledore
"Hey cool!" I said. I went over to the candy section and thought 'Milky Way'. Automatically a milky way popped up on the counter. I grabbed it an opened it. I turned around to see everyone staring at me. I handed them the note and walked past them taking a bite of my candy bar. I continued my exploring. I looked towards the other end of the room. I gasped at the sight before me. There was a huge flat screen television that took up most of the whole wall. There was a huge couch in front of it. On the sides of the T.V. were two shelves filled with movies. Underneath the T.V. was a DVD player.
"Wow. This is amazing. This has got to be the biggest T.V. I have ever seen. And there is like a million DVDs here." I turned around to see confused looks on some of their faces. 'This might take a while.' I thought.
I went on explaining everything that was muggle in the room. I explained DVDs and televisions. I explained computers, email, and instant messenger. And anything else they did not know of. After those very long hours of explaining what was in the room I went over to the counter. I got some food for lunch and set it on the coffee table we were sitting around. I grabbed a piece of parchment and a quill. I then grabbed a sandwich to eat.
"Let's start planning our movie night you guys!" I said.
For the next few hours we stayed in the entertainment room and planned our game night. We decided that we would play Truth or Dare, Spin the bottle/Seven Minutes in Heaven, I Never, and whatever anyone else could think of. Since there was the snack counter we didn't have to ask the house elves for food. We decided that it would be better just to have our dorm come so that we could get to know our new roommates. We would be living with them so we should at least try to get over our differences.
The party was to be held on Saturday. Today was Monday. We had 5 days until then. We decided we would all need to split up and ask different people to come to the party. We figured it would be safer to let Carmen handle the Slytherins. The would probably listen to her at least. Luna would ask Terry and Lauren in Ravenclaw, and I would ask Hannah and Ernie, the two Hufflepuffs.
I looked down at my watch. "Wow, it's late you guys. We should go to bed so we can ask our roommates tomorrow if they want to come party! Plus we have to go shopping for new outfits." I got up and went down to my room after saying good night to everyone.
The next few days were a blue. Everyone said they would come, except for the Slytherins. We weren't sure if they were coming tomorrow night or not. Oh well. WE decided we would go shopping for new outfits in Hogsmeade. We all met up in the common room around noon. Once we were all there we headed to Hogsmeade. We didn't have to ask permission seeing as how seventh years had permission to go to Hogsmeade any time they wanted as long as it was before curfew.
Once we got to Hogsmeade we went into a bunch of different stores. Everyone was finding great stuff except for me, Carmen, and Gin. We saw this cute little cottage/shop at the end of an alley and told everyone we would meet them in the Three Broomsticks for lunch. The three of us headed toward the shop. We walked into the sound of tinkling bells. We looked around and saw the most amazing clothes. We started looking.
20 minutes later we walked out of the shop with our new outfits. Carmen had found these dark blue jeans with flowers at the bottom and on the back pockets along with a strappy, fuschia top to match the flowers on her pants. Ginny had gotten a light blue jean mini skirt and a white tank top with dark blue flitter spelling her name (she had it custom made). I ended up with dark blue jeans with gold studs going down the sides. I bought a dark green shirt that was low cut and had a gold dragon on it. We headed towards the Three Broomsticks.
We got in and joined the rest of the girls. We ordered butterbeers and lunch. We sat around having a good time. We arrived back at the castle just in time for dinner. After dinner we went upstairs to good around in the pool. Harry, Ron, Neville, Dean, and Seamus joined us.
After a few hours of fun we decided to go to sleep so we would be well rested for tomorrow.
It was time. The movie/game night was just an hour away. Us girls were already in the huge room we were going to use. We were just goofing off waiting for the others to get there. Sure enough, 10 minutes later everyone else was there except the Slytherins. We assumed they weren't coming so we started the night. We decided to play I Never first to try and loosen everyone up.
Me and Ginny gathered everyone in a circle while Carmen, Lavender, Parvati, and Luna went and got the drinks. They came back with 2 bottles of firewhiskey.
"The counter let you get firewhiskey?" I asked them amazed. The nodded. I just smiled and waved my wand so everyone had a shot flass filled with firewhiskey in front of them. We all sat down.
"Okay everyone. We're going to play I Never. As you see we all have a shot glass in front of us. I put a spell on it so that once your glass is empty it will automatically refill. What you do is someone starts off and says something they've never done. Then the rest of the people take a shot if they HAVE done it before. Then the person who said the thing gets to ask a question to one person who has done it. Everyone understand?" I looked around to the nodding heads, "Who wants to start?"
"I will," said Luna, "I've never went skinny dipping." She looked around the circle. Hermione, Ginny, Neville, Hannah, Ernie, and Dean drank. Everyone had shock written on their faces. Hermione and Neville?
"Umm...Neville. Why did you go skinny dipping?" Luna asked.
"It was a dare," Neville said blushing.
"Your turn Neville," I said, trying to hold in my laughter.
"I've never kissed a girl," he said. Harry, Ron, Dean, Seamus, Ernie, Terry, Ginny, and Hermione drank.
"Hermione, who did you kiss?"
"Ginny. It was a dare last year." I said not being able to contain my laughter at the look on Ron's face.
"You kissed my sister? That is totally wrong 'Mione!" Ron said while pulling me closer to him.
"I've never had sex before," I said. 'Wow. This firewhiskey is really getting to me.' I thought as Lavender, Ron, Harry, Dean, Seamus, Ernie, Terry, and Neville! drinking their shots.
Carmen went next. "I've never had a boyfriend or girlfriend," she said embarrassed. Everyone else took a drink.
30 minutes later we all were pretty drunk. Only Ginny, Harry, Carmen, and myself seemed to be the only ones who were not totally out of it. There was a knock at the door. I got up shakily and opened the door. Standing there was none other than Blaise Zabini, Pansy Parkinson, and Draco Malfoy.
