Chapter 7
"Ugh! When are they going to tell us what the bloody project is?" Pansy exclaimed angrily. Draco shook his head and rubbed his temples. 'I've been here, in the Slytherin Common room for...an hour I guess, listening to Pansy's complaints'
"Pansy" he sighed, "Why don't you go complain to Snape or one of the professors?" Draco asked. Pansy stopped her ranting and looked at him.
"What!" she exclaimed, "I wasn't complaining Draco." she said pointedly. Draco shrugged.
"Seemed like it to me." he muttered.
"Huh? What was that Draco?" Pansy asked. Draco shook his head.
"Fine, whatever" Pansy said and then she suddenly slapped her hand on her forehead, "Damn it!" She swore.
"What is it Pansy?" Draco asked calmly.
"I was supposed to meet one of my friends at the library like thirty minutes ago." She said worriedly, "Do you think she'll be mad?" She asked him. Draco shrugged. Pansy ran her hand through her blonde hair nervously.
"Oh no! I have to go! Bye Draco!" she said quickly and went over to him and gave him a hug, and then left.
Draco shook his head, "I'll never understand girls" he muttered to himself.
"Tell me about it" said a voice behind him. Draco jumped a little.
"Oh bloody hell, Zabini, must you always sneak up on people? Its scary" Draco said glaring at a smirking Blaise.
Blaise shrugged, "I don't know, I'm just used to it I guess" he answered simply. Draco rolled his eyes.
"Well anyways," Blaise said, "How was your little chat with Parkinson?" he asked with a smirk again.
Draco sighed deeply, "Horrible" he answered.
Blaise chuckled, "That's nice" he said.
"Oh yeah, loads of fun" Draco said sarcastically.
"I bet" Blaise said, laughing. Draco glared at him.
"What's so funny?" he asked.
"What do you mean Drake?"
"Stop being stupid, Zabini."
"Since when was I ever stupid?"
"Since forever"
"Whatever Drake" Blaise said rolling his eyes.
Draco smirked, "What? Giving up already?" he taunted.
"What are you talking about? Giving up on what?" Blaise asked confused.
"Never mind"
"Alright then," Blaise said and then his eyes suddenly widened.
"What is it Zabini?" Draco asked. Blaise pointed in the direction of the portrait door, where someone was just coming in. That someone was Rolinda Wen.
"Oh Merlin!" Blaise groaned. Draco smirked.
"Is that the stalker girl, Blaise?" he asked. Blaise nodded his head sadly. Draco looked at her face and thought, 'whoa, Blaise was right, she is worse with the make up than Pansy'
Rolinda turned her black streaked blonde head in the direction where the two were and she suddenly smiled and started making her way over. Blaise sighed.
Once she got to them, she went up to Blaise and smiled widely, "Hi Blaise!" she exclaimed.
"Uh, hi." was the response she got. She then turned her head to Draco and she blushed slightly.
"Um, hi, my name is Rolinda Wen." she said politely. Draco nodded at her.
"Hey, I'm Draco Malfoy" he answered coolly. She blushed, 'wow, Blaise has a very cute friend' she thought, 'But Blaise is the one for me'
"So, Blaise" she started, "Where were you today? I was looking for you" she said.
Blaise shrugged, "What did you need to tell me?" he asked.
"O-oh, um, never mind" she said quickly and blushed. Blaise raised an eyebrow.
"Okay. Well, Rolinda, I have to go to the, um, library, so see you later?" Blaise said. Rolinda nodded and then hugged him.
"Bye Blaise! Bye Draco!" she said and then headed towards her room. Blaise sighed.
"I guess i should go to the library before she knows that I'm lying." Blaise said.
"Alright. I have to go back to the head's room anyways. See you later" Draco said and headed towards the door.
Draco walked to the head's room quietly. When he got there, he was greeted with a hyper Jenna.
"Hello!" she said gleefully. He just nodded to her.
"Password?" she chirped.
"Sunlilies"
He went through the door and walked over to the place where the fireplace was and collapsed down onto one of the green couches there. 'well, at least Pansy wasn't as bad as she was at the beginning of the year' he thought. He sat there for a while and then decided to go to his room to do his homework for that day.
---with Hermione---
"So, Gin are you sure you're okay?" Hermione asked. Ginny looked at Hermione and smiled.
"Yeah, don't worry about it, 'mione. He was a git anyways." she reassured.
"Alright.." Hermione said hesitantly.
Ginny laughed, " 'mione, I'm okay, really. Don't worry" she said. Hermione nodded and grinned.
"Hey, Gin have anybody you like now?" Hermione asked. Ginny blushed.
"No" she answered quickly.
"Uh huh." Hermione said, not believing her.
"I'm serious 'mione, I don't like anyone right now." Ginny said, not looking at Hermione.
Hermione smirked, "You know, you're not a very good liar" she commented. Ginny glared at her.
"That's not true." Ginny said, "If it was, Ron would know about all of the guys that i've gone out with."
"Yeah, that is true" Hermione agreed, "But I'm not letting that subject drop. Now tell me who you like!"
"No"
"Why not Ginny? I always tell you who I like." Hermione said.
Ginny raised an eyebrow, "Oh, really." she said sarcastically.
"Fine, I haven't told you who i've liked before." Hermione sighed, "I guess its fair"
"Thank you" Ginny said and nodded.
"But i still want to know who you like, someday" Hermione said grinning.
"Yeah, I'll tell you who i like, someday." Ginny agreed. Hermione nodded.
Then, the door swooped open and in came Harry and Ron. The two girls rolled their eyes.
"Don't you boys have any manners?" Ginny said annoyed.
"Huh? What are you talking about Ginny? This is the Gryffindor common room" Ron said, confused.
Hermione rolled her eyes, "Well, of course it is Ronald." she said, stating the obvious.
"Ah, um, well then, isn't it free to everyone then?" asked Harry, who looked as confused as Ron. Ron nodded.
Ginny looked at them weirdly, "And you two are supposed to be older than me?" she asked sarcastically.
"What's that supposed to mean Ginny?" Ron demanded.
"Oh, nothing, Ron" she answered with a shrug.
"Ginny, what did you mean!" Ron growled.
Ginny stared at him, "What are you talking about Ron?" she asked innocently.
"Don't give me that!" he said, his voice getting louder.
"Merlin Ron, do you have to make a scene wherever you go?" Ginny asked. The four Gryffindor friends looked around them and saw people giving them, well more like Ron, weird looks. Ron turned red.
"Shut up" was his only response before he walked up the stairs to his dormitory.
Harry sighed, "Gin, I'm sorry" he said. Ginny turned towards him with a smile.
"Its alright Harry. He needs to cool down, i guess" she shrugged. Harry nodded.
"Yeah. Well, I think I'm going to go to bed. Goodnight Ginny, 'mione" he said and hugged them both, while kissing one of their cheeks. He then turned around and went in the direction where Ron went.
"That went well, didn't it?" Hermione asked sarcastically, and sat down on the couch. Ginny did the same.
"Yeah, of course." Ginny answered just as sarcastic as Hermione, "When its with Ron that is" she added. Hermione laughed.
"I just don't get why he has to make a big deal out of everything!" Ginny complained.
Hermione grinned, "Well, it is Ron, so what did you expect from him?"
Ginny sighed, "Yeah, but its just he's just so annoying!"
Hermione shrugged, "Well, its your brother." she said, "But, Ginny, you know that he acts like that with me also too, don't you?"
"Yeah" Ginny agreed after awhile, "But not as much" she said grimacing.
Hermione rolled her eyes, "That might be true, but he only wants to protect you because you're his little sister"
"He's protecting me when I don't need it!" Ginny pointed out. Hermione nodded.
"That's true"
Ginny sighed, "So, 'mione what do you think of the whole project thing so far?" she asked, changing the subject.
"I guess its ok"
"What?" Ginny asked, shocked, "You mean that you and Malfoy haven't even argued once?"
"Whoever said that Ginny?" Hermione asked.
"No one" Ginny answered, "Just me" she said grinning.
"Well, we've argued, but haven't talked much other than that." Hermione said.
"Ah, I see"
Hermione laughed, "What do you see, Ginny?" Ginny grinned widely.
"I see…..that you and Malfoy are going to fall in love!" she exclaimed out of the blue.
Hermione gave her a weird look, "What did you say!"
"You heard me, 'mione"
"You're mad!" Hermione exclaimed.
"Am I?" Ginny asked in a spooky tone.
"Yes you are"
"Hermione!" Ginny said.
"What?" Hermione asked innocently.
"Don't give me that! Admit that you like Malfoy!" Ginny demanded.
"Wait, what?" Hermione asked disbelievingly, "Did you just say, admit that I like Malfoy!"
"Yes, exactly. Now admit it 'mione!"
"Admit what? I have nothing to admit"
"Oh come on Hermione!"
"Come on Hermione what Ginny?"
"Ugh!"
"Good night"
Ginny blinked, "What?"
"I said good night Ginny" Hermione said and stood up.
"No, you can't go! Its not even time to go to sleep!" Ginny complained.
Hermione sighed, "Gin, its eleven o' clock."
"So?"
"So, its time for me to go" Hermione said and waved, "Night Ginny"
"Humph" Ginny scoffed. Hermione rolled her eyes.
"Okay, bye" she said and headed for the door. She then went to the Head's room and went to her room. She was so tired that when her head hit the pillows, she was fast asleep.
"Wait a second!" Ginny exclaimed ten minutes later, "Hermione come back here! You still haven't admitted it yet!" she shouted.
Then Pavarti Patil came over to where Ginny was standing, "Uh, Ginny?" she asked.
"Yeah, Pavarti?"
"Who are you screaming at? Hermione's gone" she said. Ginny turned a deep color of red.
"Oh…" Ginny said slowly, "I think I'm going to go to bed, night Pavarti"
"Night"
Ginny walked up the stairs and to her dormitory and thought, 'I just made a complete fool of myself. I hope everyone would forget about this' she grimaced.
"Oh well" she muttered to herself and got in her bed and fell asleep.
