Chapter 16
They all walked up the lane to the front door which automatically opened. Inside they entered into the foyer that had a flight of stairs leading up to the next levels. The floors were white marble, and the ceiling was enchanted just like at Hogwarts. There was a big diamond chandelier floating up above them. Hermione and Draco decided that they would explore the house later, but first they would find their room. They both headed up the stairs in front of them hand in hand everyone right behind them.
After going up 7 flights of steps they decided that they should race the rest of the way, considering there was only one flight left. All of them broke into a dead run up the steps, Harry and Draco in the lead. The girls were cheering them on as they ran. Once at the top they all stopped to get their breath. There was a long hall with four rooms two on each side, and then at the very end of the hall was some more steps that led up to Hermione and Draco's room(tower).
"Hey, its no fair, we have to go up more steps." Draco complained as he looked around as he leaned against the wall.
"Ok how about we race to our rooms couples against each other." Lavender suggested looking at the girls meaningfully.
"On your mark, get set, go!" Pansy yelled as the couples raced against each other to their rooms. Ginny had already made it to her room with Harry right behind her. Then Lavender beat Ron and Pansy beat Blaise to their rooms. Leaving only Draco and Hermione left. They all watched as the couple raced up their steps neck and neck. The girls were cheering on Hermione with all of their might as the boys tried to out do them cheering on Draco. Draco started to get ahead of Hermione when Hermione slipped and started to fall backwards. She was screaming as she fell backwards, but Draco cut or screaming short as Draco caught her. Racing forward everyone tried to see if Hermione was ok.
"Hermione, honey you ok?" Draco said brushing her hair out of her face.
"Ya, I should be." Hermione said glancing over at the girls who were smiling brightly at her.
"Draco, hun, could you help me up the steps?" Hermione asked as Draco helped her up the steps carefully. As they got to the top of the steps Hermione made a break for the door. Draco just stood there as she reached the door and the girls erupted in cheers.
"Draco hun the door is locked." Hermione stated trying to turn the knob.
"I know, we're going to enter our bedroom, in our first house like a couple." Draco said coming up behind her and pulling the key out of his jeans pocket.
"Awww." All the girls exclaimed as Draco picked Hermione up wedding style and unlocked the door caring her over the threshold. He closed the door with his foot behind him and gently set her down on their bed.
"So, how do you like our new room?" Draco asked laying down beside her.
"It's ok, but once I finish decorating it will be great." Hermione said smiling brightly at him as he rolled his eyes.
