Chapter 15: Happy Halloween
Spend your lazy, endless crazy
Days inside my head
You're so selfish
You're not the only
One who thinks he's dead
I'm paid to smile now I'm on trial
For what you think I said
But I never said
That everything would be ok
And I never said
That we would live to see another day
Motivate me, I wanna get myself out of this bed
Captivate me, I want good thoughts inside of my head
If I fall down would you come around
And pick me right up off the ground
If I fall down would you come around
And pick me right up off the ground
Un-realistic and narcissistic
You say I'm selfish and absurd
You try to change me
Try to save me
You say I'm gonna learn
I'm so blind
I'm out of time
You're so unkind sometimes
I never lied, I never lied, I never lied...
But I never said
That everything would be ok
And I never said
That we would live to see another day
Motivate me, I wanna get myself out of this bed
Captivate me, I want good thoughts inside of my head
If I fall down would you come around
And pick me right up off the ground
If I fall down would you come around
And pick me right up off the ground
'Cause everything it'll be ok,
You know we're gonna live to see another day,
Yeah...yeah...
Motivate me...yeah,
Motivate me...yeah'
It was a song from the muggle band 'Good Charlotte' he remembered. He wrote the song on the parchment so he could hide it in a book whenever he wanted to read it but someone was in the room. Draco then recalled when he was at Granger's house. He'd had such a good time, she had begun to motivate him to be a better person, in her view. She was such a good friend for that one day and night, twenty-four hours, even though he was a bitch to her for so long. He then notived the corner of a glossy piece of paper. He picked it up and looked at it.
It was a picture of the two of them. They had taken it in a muggle photo booth. They were smiling, and in each picture they were making funny faces and giving bunny ears, even though it was really immature. A smile came to his face. He had completely forgot that he had kept them, but then remembered that she was a mudblood and beneath him, just like Lucius had taught him his whole life.
'Wait. Lucius taught you that, but you spent an entire, what, 24 hours, as said before, with a muggleborn, surrounded by muggles and had forgotten it in a minute and enjoyed the best day you've ever had.' Draco thought.
This was a large conflict for him. In his mind, he was choosing between what was more important. Blood, his reputation, everything he's based his life on, or...her. The best friend he had ever had, who accepted him for who he was and listened.
'But she's a filthy mudblood, and I ca-shall not associate with her type.' Draco shook his head.
It was then that Ron walked into the room and saw Draco looking at something.
'Remember the bet. Remember the bet. Remember the bet' Ron kept thinking to himself.
He grabbed his stuff and went to the bathroom. When he came back, Malfoy was looking at a book and a miniature drum set. He decided that this would be the perfect chance to practice peace with his roommate. The truce was boring, and it wasn't like he was hoping to become friends, but just at least to get along with the person who he was stuck sharing a room with for the next nine months.
Ron tried to get a good look at the book, but Malfoy was holding it in a way that he would most definitely be noticed. During Ron's entire time in the room, his presence had gone unnoticed by Draco.
'Maybe when his head actually is on this planet,' Ron thought.
"OK, Pansy should be in his room by now, what was the other reason?" Hermione asked.
"Well, it would be so much easier to get to him if we brought up shit that would catch him off guard. It would get to him easier and then if I do say yes to him, it'll break him even more when I date'n'dump." Nina smirked.
The two laughed about it for a while, but Hermione then began to think about it.
"Neen, I think that it's going a little too far. I mean, crushing and humiliating socailly him I understand, but crushing his spirit and destroying him, mentally and emotionally, I want socially, is going too far. I think we should just avoid him for a while. Hard to get was always your strongest ability, but I mean-"
"GET OUT OF MY ROOM!"
"Shit, um, totally," Hermione made a motion for Nina to do what she was. "I know!"
"And I was like, what the fuck do you think you're doing?"
"You have got to be kidding me," Nina then said in a whisper, "that should be enough."
"Shh," Hermione turned toward the door, where Pansy was entering. "Oh, before I forget, there's going to be a prefect meeting tomorrow so we can mention the dance."
"What dance?" Pansy asked.
"Well, it's Nearly Headless Nick's death day on Halloween so we were hoping to throw him a party," Hermione replied.
"Why would anyone want to throw a death day party?" Pansy said in a snobby voice, as she walked towards the bathroom.
"She is such an annoying bitch. I don't know how anyone is able to stand her," Nina said.
"We just try to ignore her," Hermione explained calmly. "Now, Dumbledore should announce the dance on the 29th, Friday,since it'll be on the 31st." (today is Wednesday)
"OK. What are you gonna go as?"
"I don't know, how about we try on a few things?"
"How? We don't have any costumes. And besides, Halloween isn't-"
"Watch this." Hermione muttered a spell and a bright light surrounded her. Nina squinted and out of the light stepped Hermione dressed as Cleopatra.
"What do you think?" She asked. The two spent the rest of the night trying on different costumes (Pansy didn't come back to the room). They tried muggle witches, rock stars, Goths, all (non-human) animals they could think of and stopped after they tried going as colors. They then went to sleep.
Friday at Dinner
"My dear students, in the past, Halloween has been a dinner of candy, but this year we shall be having a dance because this year we were actually able to plan one in time (chuckles). It is to be on Sunday, Halloween. Third years and up shall be allowed to go to Hogsmaed (I don't spell and you all know that) and second and first years shall be given magazines to look through so that you may order your costumes. But, if anyone goes to Hogsmaed before tomorrow, then they shall suffer severe consequences, for example, detention, points taken away or even not going to the dance, unless they are either a prefect or one of out heads." There was an excited murmur.
Sunday
"Mine, are you done yet?" Nina asked from behind her friend.
The girls had gone around the school taking a survey on what everyone (who answered) was wearing so they would not go as something someone else was and chose original costumes. They ended up putting a bunch of things together. Nina was wearing a dress that looked like tight rags, but in a way that looked good. It was low cut in the front and back and in different shades of green. The dress ended above the middle-upper part of her thigh. She messed up her hair, gave herself green streaks, and put on green make-up and glitter. She painted her nails and toe nails in different greens and didn't wear any shoes. She transfigured a green guitar (even though she plays the drums more often). She placed a charm on it so that it was unbreakable.
"Hold on, I just have to paint one more nail. DONE!" Hermione turned around. "What do you think?"
She was wearing an outfit similar to Nina's, but her's was a two piece that showed her tattoo (which Nina made permanent). The top ended a few inches above her stomach in an uneven cut, and her bottom swept around her hips and to her mid-thigh. Her outfit was pale browns and a few reds. It wasn't as low cut, but the two had a similar look. She was wearing bracelets and anklets, glitter and make-up that matched her outfit and tan ballet slippers. Her hair was in a messy half ponytail. She changed her guitar from being black and white and covered with stickers to browns and reds and put an unbreakable charm on it (like Nina).
"Perfect! Let's go. It's so cool that Dumbledore hired a muggle-like D.J."
"I know! This is gonna be the best dance ever!"
The two linked arms. "Y'know, it's good that we decided not to be Lucy and Ethel" Nina said when they left they left the room."
"Why?"
"'Cause first of all, it's a predictable thing, and secondly, because these costumes rock!"
"Yeah, but it's what we're known as to the muggle borns."
"And Snape," The two laughed.
"And what's so funny?" They heard from downstairs. The two looked down and saw Ron standing next to Hannah. The two were going as a fairy tale princess and prince.
Nina and Hermione braided Hannah's hair with gold ribbon with a small gold tiara and 'made' a yellow and gold dress with bell sleeves that was low cut in the front, but her cleavage was covered with white lace. Ron was wearing a red and gold fairy tale prince outfit, like what the prince from Sleeping Beauty (A/N I think his name was Eric, but I lost the tape... coughyoungersiblingscough).
"You guys look great!" Nina exclaimed.
"Thanks!" Hannah said as she blushed. "Shall we go?"
"Wait, what about Padma, Ernie and (the other Ravenclaw prefect, how about we call him Bob 'till I find out his name?)?" Hermione asked.
"Oh, Ernie and Bob said to go without them and Padma is waiting for Ernie," Ron said. He then noticed what the girls were wearing. "Woah! Hermione! Nina!" he exclaimed as he stared at the tattoos.
"Oh grow up Ron, we both know that you've seen a girl show more skin, I mean, look at what Nina wears every day," Hermione joked, well, complained, but at least she made it sound like a joke. Ron was way too protective sometimes.
"I think he means the tattoos," Nina whispered. Hermione nodded her head. "Ron, we got them at the end of summer. Hermione's isn't a real tattoo like mine though. Her's is just a henna that I put a permanent charm on. You like?"
"Um, yea!" Ron said, trying not to stare at Nina's chest, even though her tattoo was on her collarbone.
The four set off to the Great Hall where they were to add the finishing touches for the decorations. They finished in a half-hour, no thanks to Malfoy or Pansy, who came five minutes before the dance began. The prefects and Heads left the room and sat where Hermione, the triwizard champions and their dates had sat before the Yule Ball.
Padma was dressed as a beauty pageant contestant, Ernie was a pirate and Bob (I LUV that name) was dressed as Sherlock Holmes. Draco was dressed as the Phantom of the Opera and Pansy went as a beach bunny. She was wearing a string bikini (everyone wanted to claw their eyes out), dyed her hair gold-blond and put a spell on herself to make her look tan. She kept complaining, though, that McGonagall made her change the bottom from a thong to a regular bottom and put a spell on it so she could not change it back. Everyone was thanking her and she became the new favorite teacher and won a gold medal after that, nah, but she was thanked by every student at least three times.
When she (McGonagall), noticed the tattoos, though, she almost fainted. Pansy, on the other hand, threw a hiss fit. Everyone, especially Draco, tried to get her to shut up, but that only made the shrieking worse. By the time Dumbledore announced them all in, they all had throbbing headaches. The prefects opened the dance with their assigned partners (Draco and Pansy, Padma and Bob, Hannah and Ron, Ernie and Hermione and Nina and Harry).
Couples began filling the dance floor and Harry soon left Nina to dance with Parvati, his original date. Hermione left Ernie so he could dance with his date, a Hufflepuff sixth year named Rebecca. She and Nina walked around and talked to people from other houses. After a while, they saw Draco put his mask and cape on a table and told Crabbe and Goyle to watch it while he went to get some food.
"You thinking what I'm thinking?" Hermione turned to Nina with a devilish grin.
"I believe I do, and I also believe that I have finally rubbed off on you," Nina said. She strutted over to Crabbe and Goyle and started to flirt with them, distracting them from the mask and cape, even food(! WOW!).
Hermione snuck over to the table and put a spell on the mask. She gave Nina a signal and the two walked away.
"What kind of spell did you put on the mask?" Nina asked.
"Whenever anyone puts it on they can only tell the truth, and after every hour they wear it, and it doesn't have to be in a row, they tell a deep dark secret, going from deepest and then to second deepest and so on." The two began to laugh.
"And now we shall be having a special presentation. Two of our students have put together a few dances and shall be performing a few of them for us tonight. Here is there first one. Please welcome to the dancefloor Nina and Hermione," Dumbledore said. The room birst with applause.
Hermione and Nina walked onto the dance floor, after leaving their guitars with Harry and Ron. 'Dance, Dance', by Fall Out Boy, began to play. Draco refused to watch the dance, so he sat in the back at the table where Crabbe and Goyle were sitting and eating in a grotesque manor. He put on his mask and felt a slight tingling on his face, but shrugged it off. He then got up and decided to watch the end of the dance.
'Wow, they're good' he thought as he watched them. The song ended and the dance floor quickly filled up. Hermione noticed Malfoy wearing his mask and pointed it out to Nina. The two walked over to him with hidden smirks, well, hidden in Hermione's face.
"Hey Malfoy. What did you think of the performance?" Hermione asked.
"I thought it was good and you two are great dancers," he responded without realizing what he said.
"And what do you think about us?" Nina asked.
"I think that you, Nina are an amazing, beautiful, intelligent girl who fights for what she believes is right and I respect that. You, Hermione, are the most amazing woman I have ever met in my life. You, too are intelligent, funny beautiful, kind, and if I went on with the list then we would be here until past curfew." He then realized what he was saying and covered his mouth before anything else could come out.
The girls smiled. "Why did you run out and totally change after that day over the summer?" Nina asked viciously. Hermione's smile widened.
'What is going on with me? Why am I telling them this?' Draco asked himself.
"Because I was scared that I was beginning to like her, I mean, you heard what I said before, and nothing I could ever say would ever be able to make up for what a great person she is!" he half yelled after a few minutes of trying to hold it in.
"Why did you treat her in the past so horribly and still do, even though you feel the way you just said?" Nina asked, but Hermione was too dazed to respond with a smile or anything. They were taking advantage of him, playing with his heart, torturing him with something he could not control.
"Nina, I think we should stop," She said. Nina turned to face her friend.
Draco then realized what was going on and took off the mask. His face was full of fury. He threw the mask on the floor and whipped out his wand.
"C'mon mudblood. You and your friend! If you want to face me, face me like a witch, rather than hiding behind my mask. Outside in five minutes or I let it slip to Dumbledore what you did!" Draco said. With a swoosh of his cape, he was gone.
Nina turned to face her friend, "'Mione, why did you stand up for him?" She asked.
"Because, we're taking advantage of him. It started out as a practical joke mixed with revenge. I loved the idea and everything, until he said what he said," Hermione answered. She took her guitar and walked to the lake. When she got outside, she looked up at the stars.
"All these games you play
They're messin' with my head (messin with my head)"
'What's that?' Hermione thought. She recognized the song as 'I Don't Wanna
Stop' by Good Charlotte, but the person was singing it softly and slowly. It was coming from the lake. She saw a silhouette across the lake looking down.
"I don't know why I stay
I should leave instead (I should leave instead)
When I speak from my heart
You laugh like it's a game (cuz this ain't no game)
Yeah we'd make great friends, but it just isn't the same...
And I know this is not the way it should be
And I know you treat him like me
But I don't wanna stop
I don't wanna stop
I don't wanna stop
Now I don't need you to buy me pretty things
(you don't pay for me)
Pay for my tattoos or buy me diamond rings
(we don't want those things)
All I know is that I'm happy to see you smile
(i want to see you smile)
And it'd make my day if you'd just stay here awhile
(stay with me)
And I know this is not the way it should be
And I know you treat him like me
But I don't wanna stop
I don't wanna stop
I don't wanna stopThis has gone on way too long...
And I'm tired of movin' on,
And I know this is not the way it should be
And I know you treat him like me
But I don't wanna stop
I don't wanna stop
I don't wanna stop"
The moon came from behind some clouds and Hermione saw a flash of platinum blond hair. IT WAS DRACO!
She slowly walked over to him as he looked into the lake.
"Draco," she began in a soft voice. As she knelt behind him. She could tell that his face was hard. "I'm sorry about before, it was meant to be just a practical joke, but I guess that it went a little far, I mean, prying into your private business." She then moved over to a bit closer to him (he was sitting on a rock) and tried to look at his face, but he turned the other way. "Please look at me."
He kept his face turned away, but slowly said "You betrayed my trust. I thought you were a girl with morals, who only pried into business when you were trying to save the world," he cracked a tiny smile, but it left as soon as it came. "What did I say exactly?" he turned to face her.
"You first complimented us and our dance. Then you said what you like about Nina and I. You then told us why you ditched me. After that I spaced out, I mean, when I heard what I did, I realized that we had gone too far. By the way, it was really sweet" she smiled at him, which he returned.
"I'm sorry about what happened over the summer, I mean, I just panicked, well, you know, I mean, I told you-" He faced showed many emotions. "I'm sorry about all that Nina and I did to you for the past two months, especially when we had our first meeting with Dumbledore," she smiled as she remembered what happened.
Flashback
(Great Hall at Dinner)
Hermione and Nina walked into the Great Hall and looked around. It looked different than usual. Instead of four long tables, there were seven medium sized tables (one table for each year). They took the only available seats, the ones next to Malfoy. It was apparent that the seats were assigned because everybody was sitting with their groups. Hermione and Nina did rock, paper, scissor to see who would have to sit next to Malfoy. Nina lost. The two sat down and ate their dinners.
"Hey Hermione, can you believe how many people are able to eat meat?" Nina said.
"I know. They're taking the lives of animals just so they can have something in their stomachs when they could settle for something that doesn't involve death," Hermione answered. It's obvious that Draco was eating meat for dinner.
"Herm, you know how I feel about using that word. I prefer non-humans," Nina said.
"Yeah, and when you put it that way, it sounds like people who eat meat are eating their relatives," Hermione said.
"And don't forget about how they are only born to be killed" Nina added.
"Who can forget? I mean, imagine the non-human who gives birth. I'd rather never give birth and die than give birth to someone only so they can be killed."
Draco threw down his fork and knife and took a sip of his pumpkin juice. The two girls stared at him. When he noticed that, he turned to face them.
"What? Is there something wrong with drinking pumpkin juice? Is it wrong to take the life of an inanimate object so it can be drunk?" The two looked at each other and went back to eating.
After Dinner
"Now, you all have been asked to wear something that expresses yourself. Some by color, some by style and other outfits. Now, please get into your groups to receive the first assignment," Dumbledore said. Everyone got into their groups.
"Nice outfits," Draco sneered at Hermione and Nina.
Nina was wearing dark, tight jeans with David & Goliath patches and pins, a black long-sleeved shirt with a 'Ex-Boyfriend' tank top over it. She was wearing 'Boys make good pets, everyone should own one' shoes and a black bag, also covered in David and Goliath pins and a few patches. Her hair was in a messy bun.
Hermione was wearing light blue jeans that were loose with a purple ¾ sleeve shirt with a white silhouette of a lion that showed her stomach. She wasn't wearing any shoes, but was wearing a butterfly toe ring. Her hair was down and wavy. She had silver chandeleir earrings hanging from her ears that had small pink beads here and there.
"Yeah, same with you Malfoy," Nina said in a bored voice. He was wearing plain (style) black robes with a silver dragon embroidered into it, but under the robe he was wearing khakis and a black muscle shirt with boots.
"Ah, students, lovely outfits. Now please follow me." Dumbledore smiled down at the three students. The teens followed the old man to the lake. When they reached the lake, he turned around and looked at them. Nina and Hermione were standing together and Draco was a few feet to the left. "Now first, Mister Malfoy, please shed your outer robe" Draco hesitantly did so, revealing his muggle clothes. Nina and Hermione were surprised by his attire. "As you all know, the assignments are to improve inter-house relationships, but in this cast, it shall also be inter-of-the-house." He chuckled. "Now, you all have been asked to wear your favorite outfits. This is so your fellow classmates can see something about you. I know that it might only show a part of you, but that is a part that is still able to learn about. Let us all sit and we can go around telling each other about what we learn about your outfits. Now, Nina, what does Mister Malfoy's attire say to you?"
"Well, first of all, the way that he had to present and show it showed me that he is too obsessed with appearances, reputations, what other's think, and so on. His outfit shows me, though that he is self confident, not afraid to show off his body, but still has some style." She answered. "He likes to be relax and comfortable as well."
Everyone was amazed that she hadn't insulted him.
"Very good Nina, now please do Hermione" Dumbledore said.
"She is a free spirit that is sometimes cloaked. I can also tell that her favorite creature is the lion, either that or she's a big fan of astrology. I know that the shirt does not have to do with her house because of the colors."
"Very good. Now, Draco, please analyze Miss Nina."
"According to her outfit, she's afraid of the male gender. She tries to hide her fear with hatred and believes it after a while. Also, when she tries to prove a point she goes too far sometimes, destroying the point of it because the impact she makes is too strong. She is just trying to prove a point to keep people off the track to get into her insane, random, and messed up mind. And for Granger, I feel that, yes, she is a boxed in 'free spirit' if you will, but she also refuses to accept the full her. Also, it shows me that she prefers to blend in, because of the pale colors."
"Very good. Now Miss Granger, please interpret Mister Malfoy's attire."
"I agree with Nina. He cares too much about what others think, because of the robe. He is also, as stated before, confident about his appearance, but not so much that he would wear something that would make people think what he doesn't want them to. Like, the fact that he's wearing muggle clothes, which may make them think that he might like muggles or something like that. His outfit, including the robes, shows that he's not fine with himself. In fact, it shows that he is nothing but clay to be molded into what others want him to be, an-"
"I think that that will do Miss Granger," Dumbledore interrupted. "Now please interpret Nina."
"Nina is trying to prove that she is not weak, sorry Neen, but I think her outfit shows that she has issues with the male gender and has been unable to deal with it." She wanted to say more, but did not want to offend her friend or say anything that was told to her in confidence.
"Now that we have done that, I assume that you have all heard of the game truth or dare?" Dumbledore looked at the interesting group. "Your next exercise is to play the game, unsupervised, for forty-five minutes. I shall leave for that time and we shall do a last exercise using what went on during that game" With that, he left. A glass bottle appeared in front of them with a letter in it:
Students-
A spell has been placed on the bottle so that something shall happen to someone who is to lie or not do their dare to the full potential. When dared, anything to accomplish the dare with shall appear. Have fun. Say the words 'Chocolate Frogs' for the bottle to begin to spin to decide who shall be the first person to spin the bottle.
Hermione said chocolate frogs when she finished reading the letter. The bottle began to spin. It landed on Draco. He spun it and it landed on Nina.
"Truth or dare?" he asked.
"Truth"
"Why are you so against us guys?" he asked.
"Throughout my life, my heart has been broken several times. After a while, I became fed up with it and decided to get revenge on the entire male gender. Guys just don't get anything. They are nothing but lying, self absorbed bastards who stick together to be the annoying bitches that they are and destroy the lives of everyone who they feel like." She said with a scowl, remembering the emotions she felt. There was a moment of silence, she took the bottle and spun it violently. It landed on Hermione. Hermione said truth before she could ask.
"Hermione, at the end of the summer dance back home, did you avoid Jared so you would win and he would ask me, or for another reason? And of so, what?"
"W-what do you mean?" Hermione was caught completely off guard.
"At the dance at the end of the summer. Were you avoiding him on purpose?" Nina of course meant Jared.
"I was avoiding him? I didn't realize, but he did dance with you." Hermione lied. There was then a gust of wind and the she was carried to a small island in the middle of the lake.
"Mione!" Nina said
"Fine, I avoided him because I didn't like him anymore and I didn't want to accidentally win!" The island got smaller. "OK! I didn't want to dance with him! I wanted you to! It made more sense for you to win! I mean, you liked him longer, more, and everything! Friends come before boys!" With that she was carried back to where she was sitting before. "I'm so sorry Nina"
"It's OK," Nina answered slowly. Hermione spun the bottle. It landed on Draco.
"Malfoy, truth or dare?"
"Dare, I'm no chicken," he said in a proud voice, but secretly, he was planning on not saying 'truth'.
"OK, hmm, Nina, what should we make him do? How about sing and dance? Nah, what about strip dancing to a muggle song? Or better yet, singing a muggle song as he strip dances? No, who would want to see his body? I have it! Malfoy, you have torech into the lake and kiss the first thing you pull out, and I mean living. I know it isn't much, but it should be entertaining," she then whispered to Nina, "and I couldn't think of anything betterWhen he finished, he sat down and spun the bottle. It landed on Hermione.
"Truth or Dare?"
"Um, Truth, no wait, yes, truth."
"Hmm, what is your biggest secret? After all, we are supposed to be learning about each other."
"Um, that would have to be, y'know, I don't really know. I mean, I would have to guess that it's that in the second year I made a Polyjuice potion and turned into Milcent's cat in the second year," she hesitantly said.
The game went on. Draco had to do more dares and the two girls didn't stop picking on him. He also cruelly picked on the two girls. By the end of the forty-five minutes, the hatred that Hermione and Draco shared was almost doubled.
"Your last activity for tonight, well, the first part, at least, is to write down six questions about yourself with two answers, one true and one false. Then, you shall place them on a trail at each fork. You shall hide at the end of one of the trails. As the other two students and I look for you, we shall answer the questions and use them as a directory to tell us which side of the fork to turn. Now please begin".
Eighteen pieces of paper and three pens appeared. They finished the activity with only Hermione and Nina being able to find each other, but it took them a half hour to find Draco.
End Flashback
Draco looked at Hermione and smiled and said "It's OK, I mean, I didn't treat you that well over the past five years."
"HEY MALFOY," they heard in the distance. The two turned to see Nina and a large group of seventh years. "You ready to duel?"
"'Mione! What are you doing with the stupid git?" Ron asked.
Hermione got up and said, "listen, if you guys want to watch a fight then I suggest you go somewhere else because this is an invitation only thing. So please go away."
Everyone walked away. Nina was upset and walked over to her best friend.
"What was that all about?"
Hermione took Nina's hand and brought her to the forbidden forest so no one would hear.
"Nina, I think we went too far. And this is my fight that I brought you into, let me just get you out of it."
"Mya, before you continue, this is also my fight, even if you ignore the fact that we are best friends," Hermione was confused. "When we were on the train, I didn't make out with him just for you. It was also because of something else. We flirted at the beach and it reminded me of Jared, so when I saw him again, I don't know, it set something off inside of me. And the only reason why he was asking me out was because of lust. And then after a while he only stopped because he went too far and used Jared. Somehow he found out about him. I hexed him, which is why I had a week of detention, Slytherin lost twenty points and why he missed a day of school. It was other stuff and I just have to destroy the little bitch. He used my pain to get the upper hand and I cant let him get away with it!"
"Nina, why do you always resort to revenge?"
"Because it's the only way my point ever gets across. It's the only way they can feel what I did and if you stand up for the bitch then I don't think that you're really my friend!"
"C'mon Nina, you know that you're my best friend, and he-wait, he used Jared? Bitch is going to the moon! (A/N I luv u JooD)" Hermione walked over to the lake to Draco. "What the fuck were you thinking when you mentioned Jared? How stupid and coldhearted can a person get?" she began angrily.
"It was a sixteen year old boy asking out a girl who had made out with him twice before. It was pure lust and I regretted it, but now that I've seen how she can also be, I think that what I did was sm-"
"Twice?"
"Yeah, once on the train and another time when we were the only people in the common room. She was flirting and being a teasing slut. And all I said referring to Jaret, or whatever his name is, is that he was an idiot to not be with someone with such a great body."
"This night has been too much! I swear that if I find out one more thing tonight then my head will explode!" She turned to walk away, but turned after a couple of steps and said "Good night, Draco. Good night Nina."
