Chapter Three

Welcome Back Dinner and

Finding out About the Dance

"Well here we go Draco another year of Hogwarts" Said Pansy.

"Yes here we go another year of Hogwarts." Replied Draco.

They both walked off the train and headed to the carriages to take them up to the school. As soon as they got into the doors they were greeted by Prof. Snape telling them to go into the Great Hall for the sorting hat ceremony and for dinner. They both went in and sat down at the table.

"Well Granger sure is looking frizzy today." Said Draco.

"I don't think she looks that bad Draco I mean I saw her up close and she looked pretty good." Laughed Blaise.

"Will you guys shut up I'm trying to listen to the ceremony you guys can talk about her hair later." Whispered Pansy.

"Well someone has her panties in a twist and it isn't me and you Draco ha-ha."

"Shut up Blaise I am not in the mood to listen to your mouth rambling stupid things for the next hour, the same goes to you too Draco I don't want to hear either one of you running your mouths."

"Okay, okay Pansy I'm sorry okay me and blaise were just messing around, are you sure you okay you seem really on edge right now is there something you should tell me but aren't telling me?"

"No, no nothing Drake I am just really tired from the train ride here the nap we took just made me even more tired."

Draco just nodded his head like he understood. After the three got done arguing the sorting ceremony was over and everyone started to dig in, the food looked really good. Draco was eating two chicken legs at the same time, when he looked over to where Pansy was sitting and she was hardly eating she had one chicken leg and some rice on her plate. So Draco decided to ask her about it and he moved over so he was right next to her.

"Hey Pansy I've known you almost all my live and in that long time I have never seen you eat so little in one sitting what's going on?"

"I'm just not that hungry I don't know why I guess me being so tired has made my appetite go away, don't worry about it though I'll be fine Drake."

"I'm sorry I don't believe you, please don't tell me you are listening to what some of the girls at the school have said, well are you?"

"Yes I am Drake its just hard when you hear someone you don't even know calling you fat when you know you aren't really fat you just gained a couple of pounds, everyone thinks that slytherins don't have any feelings well there wrong I have feelings, real ones and it hurts to be called fat."

"Pansy, Pansy, Pansy you are not fat trust me. You are one of the prettiest in the whole school, well to me you are."

"Draco you are just saying that because you are my best friend and you feel like you have to, while I really appreciate it, your just one person there is a lot of people who think the same way as those girls."

"Well just ignore them the only people who matter are you friends and family theses days anyway."

"Yeah once again Drake you are right about everything ha-ha that is the only time you will ever hear me say those three words."

"As long as you at least admit it I will always win my dear Pansy I am glad you are realized this."

"You are too much of a smart ass for your own good, but I wouldn't have it any other way."

At this point Snape came over to their table and told them to stop talking because Dumbledore has something really important to tell everyone.

"Welcome Students to another year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, I hope everybody has enjoyed their summer vacation, and the homework that was sent home with everybody it is due tomorrow in your classes." Everyone groaned as Dumbledore said this.

"Now I remember sending a letter home with every student to make sure to bring proper dancing attire but I have decided that the first dance will be casual wear, and it will be tonight after dinner for the 5th,6th, and 7th years only, the next dance will be for all grades."

"Everyone may retreat to their proper dorms and change into something more comfortable than their school robes. The dance will start in approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes, so students in a calm manor please go to your dorm buildings now."

As soon as he said this most of the girls ran to the doors to get ready they only had an hour and a half the last two girls to the doors were Pansy Parkinson and Hermione Granger. When they got out the doors they each went their own separate ways.
