Authors note: Idk but this chapter is just basically made 2 fill in space between Christmas and Valentines Day, so it takes place like the beginning of February. Psssst I sadly don't own HP characters or anything like that, I just own the plot.
"Hon, we're gonna be late! Let's move!" Harry bellowed up the stairs to the girls dorms.
"Harry be quiet! I'm coming okay?" Rose slipped down the stairs hooking on her earrings and into Harry's arms.
"Let's get to class okay?"
Shrugging Rose stood up and began to skip towards the portrait hole, Harry wearily following behind.
Rose finally stopped in the Great Hall, sitting down at her table grinning at her friends as Harry sat down looking at his feet.
Harry hated sitting at Rose's table, he felt so masculine among the giggling girls who were constantly nagging him and Rose about their love life.
"So, Harry," Rose's friend Veronica began. "When is the next date and are Chad and I coming?"
"I told Rose that we could go to Madam Puddifoots Saturday with Draco and Ginny in Hogsmeade and you two can come along if that's what pleases you Ronny." Harry muttered wearily.
"Oh! Chad!" Veronica squealed down the table where her boyfriend sat with his friends.
"Oi, Harry mate, Hogsmeade date Saturday I'm assuming?" Chad called back to Harry who nodded.
Rose reached for Harry's hand who took it willingly as Cho Chang walked in, determinedly not looking at him.
"Hey Ronny!" Cho called to Veronica who returned the wave half heartedly; "Why, is she being nice to me now?" Veronica muttered
Everyone shrugged and continued eating until classes began at eight.
"Bye love" Rose said to Harry who bid her goodbye with a long kiss in front of the door to her Transfiguration classroom as he turned to hurry off to charms.
"Girl, something you ought to know, Cho cornered me walking out of the Great Hall, asking me all sorts of questions about Saturday, and I'm thinking she may make an unexpected appearance." Veronica mumbled to Rose.
Rose nodded like she had expected this but had a plan brewing in the back of her head anyway.
Ginny passed a note to Ronny that read; "Whatcha thinking?"
Rose looked up mouthing Later and with that Professor McGonagall walked in.
"Okay now Spill" Ginny demanded of Rose that night in her common room while they sat hunched over their immensley difficult transfiguration homework.
Rose rolled her eyes and began; "Well since we all know that Cho has feelings for Harry and Harry cannot stand her, we let her think shes won him and rip it all out from under her!"
Rose laughed and laughed until she was clutching her side where Ginny had swiped her with her wand.
"No," she waggled the wand threateningly and continued; "You are not becoming my bestfriend the malicious monster. But... you know who has the best expertise in making people they dont like to back off?"
Rose thought for a moment and they both said in unison; "Draco..."
"Oh, Draco! Draco! Help us with our homework! These quills will not be turning into birds anytime soon!"
Draco came sauntering down the stair well holding a deck of cards. "You dont appreciate my guys nights do you?"
With a kiss Ginny responded; "No, not in the least" and Draco laughed; "Now whats the problem here?"
"Cho wont back off my boyfriend!" Rose blurted out blushing.
Draco let out a laugh and began; "Tell that loser to back off" but at Roses disbelieving expression he continued: "Okay okay, um show her Harry is yours, don't give her any reason to move in on him. And haha" he dazed off for a minute before continuing; "A popular technique is pulling him into a desserted class room to try to talk to him. Make sure you have people on the look out all the time."
And he kissed Ginnys cheek and headed back upstairs.
The two shrugged and continued trying desperately to turn Ginnys eagle feather quill but as far as they got was to make the quill molt until the gave up.
Ginny dragged Rose up the stairs and began giving her a make over.
"Now what the bloody hell are you doing?!" Rose screeched as Ginny began squirting a bottle of unknown potions into her hair and wrapped it in tin foil.
"Just lightly coloring it and then highlights!" Ginnys eyes glowed at the thought.
"Now we let it sit for 33-35 minutes and then well its pointless explaining it now go scrub off your facial mask it should be done by now."
Nodding Rose walked off into the loo to wipe off the gunk on her face.
Ginny laughed to herself and waited for Rose to return with her face hopefully clean.
Rose walked back in and Ginny began applying the make up to Roses face who was constantly wincing and moving and messing her up.
"If you don't hold still" Ginny began warningly; holding out her wand. Rose froze up and let Ginny continue her make up with out any messy interruptions.
The girls finished around eleven and Rose just decided to summon clothes for tomorrow and sleep in the cot that Lila and Ginny had in their closet.
"Ginny!" Draco called from the bottom of the stairs, until he rushed up the stairs covering his eyes as he reached the top stair.
Ginny turned around from the mirror and laughed at Draco's expression and said; "Draco, it's fine we're decent"
He slowly removed his hands and sat down to play with Candy.
The girls finally finished primping and skipped down the stairs and down to the Great Hall, sitting down with Harry and Rose at the Gryffindor table.
Harry looked Rose once over before wrapping his arm protectively around her waist and said to her: "Rose, you look great! But you are All mine." He smirked and continued eating his breakfast one handed, as he still had an arm snaked around Rose.
