A/N: Look how much I'm writing! Go me! This is going to be fun to write, and I hope you enjoy reading it! I was actually inspired for this idea from 'Checkmate' with the joined auras idea though I've changed a lot I just thought I'd mention the name.
P.S. If there's spelling issues let me know, I was so excited to get this posted I didn't do a thorough reread through it.
Joined Auras:
Half of an hour later everyone was assembled in Elizabeth's Common Room. Hermione looked excited, Ron looked worried, Harry looked nervous, Draco looked uncomfortable, and Elizabeth was wearing an evil smile on her face, half covered by her red hair she had decided to let out for the party.
"Oh come on, its just a slumber party between friends," she said happily and Ron snorted, Hermione hitting him over the back of the head and everyone else snickered. "Ok so first off, changing into PJs!"
Hermione and Elizabeth ran off to get changed seeing as they were both girls and left the boys to their business. The guys exchanged looks before heading to separate parts of the large room to change. The three guys finished before the girls so they sat down on the couches, blushing profusely at seeing each other in their sleepwear.
All three boys were wearing full-length pajama bottoms, Harry's being white with blue strips, Draco's being a silky traditional Slytherin green, while Ron's was an embarrassing maroon colour. Every time someone sent him a look he'd start muttering about 'hate maroon…stupid…maroon…' and so on, making Harry and Draco smile slightly. Though none of them normally slept with a shirt but they decided it would be more suitable if they wore one with the girls around.
Draco had brought a t-shirt of pale blue, which brought out his eyes very nicely. Harry had a shirt of tacky Gryffindor red with a snitch stitched on that buzzed around once and a while and Ron was wearing a plain white shirt that read 'do you got a problem buddy?'
Moments later the two girls reappeared, smiling from ear to ear at seeing the guys actually went along with the plan. Hermione was wearing a Gryffindor t-shirt and pajama bottoms of black that fanned out at the bottom. She had taken out any jewelry she had been wearing earlier and she had her hair up in a ponytail. But Draco didn't spend much time on her, his eyes immediately looked at Elizabeth.
The 'muggle' girl was wearing pajama bottoms that were relatively loose and they were Gryffindor red with flower patters on them. She was wearing a sliver t-shirt, almost like matching Slytherin and Gryffindor colours. She still wore the tacky gold ring on a chain around her neck and she had yet to take off the jelly bracelets but she looked beautiful.
The two girls sat on cushions on the floor and gave the boys a dangerous look. They quickly grabbed cushions and joined the girls before they were killed and everyone smiled, some more comfortable than others with the arrangement. "Ok, I think first off, we should do a friendly game of truth or dare!" Hermione yelled out and the boys shared worried glances. "And since Elizabeth is the host…truth or dare?"
Elizabeth gave her a mock glare before pretending to ponder the thought, "dare," she said boldly.
"In spirit of the current situation…I dare you…to sing the pajama song!" Hermione laughed and Elizabeth groaned. The boys looked utterly confused.
"Ok, ok!" Elizabeth cleared her throat;"I wear my pink pajamas in the summer when it's hot! I wear my flannel nighties in the winter when its not! But sometimes in the spring, and sometimes in the fall, I jump into my little bed with nothing on at all!" she sang and even thought it was a silly song, everyone was amazed at how beautifully she could sing.
She stopped and looked around, seemingly oblivious to the stares she was receiving, "ok…Ron, truth or dare?"
Shaking his head to get his mind back, he looked around nervously, "dare I suppose…"
"Ok good! I dare you to kiss Hermione, and a real kiss!" Elizabeth looked on proudly as Ron leaned over and captured Hermione's lips with his in a passionate and loving kiss. Draco made a face and Harry muttered something like 'bout time.' A few minutes later Draco cleared his throat and the two Gryffindors broke apart, blushing furiously.
"My turn?" Ron looked around and Harry rolled his eyes before nodding. "Ok, um…Harry, truth or dare?"
"Dare obviously," Harry smiled and then looked back to Ron.
"I dare you to show us that trick Dumbledore taught you during the summer with making rings," Ron smiled brightly, he had always liked watching Harry do this spell at HQ.
"Ok, I need favourite jewels and types, like white gold or silver…" Harry looked around for suggestions and Elizabeth rose to the challenge.
"White gold band with a ruby and emerald," she said cheerfully and Harry smiled back with an "I shall do my best."
Everyone stopped talking to watch as Harry crossed his legs and raised his hands to the height of his chest, cupped but with four inches in between. First there was nothing but then Elizabeth began hearing a low hum. She looked around but it seemed only she could hear it. A few seconds later there was a bright light between Harry's hands and then the four students could see the ring appearing from nowhere and start to mold into shape.
A few minutes later there was a beautiful white gold ring with vine-like designs around the band hovering between Harry's hands. The two jewels, a ruby and emerald, were touching diagonally and facing Elizabeth. The bright light faded and everyone clapped, even Draco.
"Malfoy, I think you will need this more than me," Harry said and handed it over to the pale Slytherin, "Malfoy, truth or dare?"
"Dare Potter," Draco said quickly while pocketing the ring but quickly whished to take it back.
"I dare you Draco, to give Elizabeth the ring to show your current status," Harry smiled wickedly from the stuttering Draco to the blushing Elizabeth, "and do it the proper pureblood way too."
"Draco and Elizabeth? What status is this?" Ron asked nervously as Draco pulled out the ring and shuffled over to sit in front of the smiling girl.
"Elizabeth Moon, may I, Draco Malfoy have the honor of courting you?" Draco asked, blushing furiously but correctly reciting the formal question for pureblooded courtships.
"I, Elizabeth Moon, accept your offer with love and allow you, Draco Malfoy to court me," she unknowingly recited the rest of the courting procedure to perfection, making Draco smile.
To finish the bond, Draco slowly leant forward and captured Elizabeth's lips with his own, his blonde hair falling like a curtain around their faces. She readily returned the kiss and a bright light of the two student's auras appeared, surrounding them even though they didn't notice.
Ron and Hermione looked confused and Harry was smiling widely. First there were two separate auras; Elizabeth's a pale blue with fiery green streaks flowing through it and Draco's a deep forest green with silvery threads swirling through it.
As the kiss deepened, the auras began to combine and after a few brief moments, the auras joined completely and let off a powerful magic burst, flinging the on-lookers backwards. Harry was the first to react and picked himself up off the ground just in time to see the joined aura before it began to fade. It was now a solid colour of ever-changing forest green and pale, icy blue, changing in the light, and held together with the silvery wines from Draco's previous aura since he was the 'dominant' in the relationship.
Harry saw the aura's magic disappear from the naked eye into the ring Harry had created and given to Draco to give to Elizabeth. Because Harry was the one to create the ring and was present during the exchange, his magic and love joined the bond to make it stronger still, and he could practically feel the combined aura as it took its place in the ring and created an identical one on Draco's finger.
The bond complete, the two separated with a smile playing on their faces, hidden before by the curtain of white blonde. The Slytherin boy leant forward so his mouth was by Elizabeth's ear, "I love you and will protect you for as long as I live."
"I love you Draco and will support you in everything you do," Elizabeth continued to speak the pureblood oaths unknowingly, making Draco wonder how muggle the girl really was. 'Maybe she was from a pureblood family even though she couldn't remember…'
Getting ready to share another kiss, they leant forward but stopped when they heard a groan from a few feet away. Ron and Hermione were pulling themselves off the ground, Harry smiling happily beside them. "Well that was…uh…interesting," Ron said while trying hard not to make a face.
"I think you should talk to Dumbledore about your auras joining, that has never happened in recorded history before," Hermione said excitedly and looked ready to start asking a lot of questions so Harry quickly looked at Draco with a 'she's-going-to-go-bookworm-on-us-hurry-and-cut-her-off' look.
Getting the message, Draco looked around quickly, "Granger, truth or dare?"
She stopped mid-sentence and thought for a moment, "I'll take truth," she looked nervous but looked at Draco expectantly, who was now sitting very close to Elizabeth.
"How long have you had it for Weasley?" He smirked when the girl began blushing cherry red. Ron looked at her, clearly very interested in the answer.
"Well I-erm…since I watched him do that faulty spell on the Hogwarts Express first year," she muttered quietly before dropping her head so they couldn't see her blush anymore.
"What spell was that?" Draco asked out of curiosity and Harry laughed at the memory of seeing his 'first spell' when he joined the wizarding world when he was eleven.
Now Ron was blushing too, "it was a spell my twin brothers gave to me," he refused to say more.
"I want to hear it," Elizabeth said happily from her cushion, leaning into Draco.
Ron rolled his eyes but kept himself from commenting, "fine! Sunshine daisies, butter-mellow, turn this stupid fat rat yellow!" Ron said before explaining how he used to have a rat and the whole story of Peter Pettigrew and then the game of truth or dare continued.
-------------------------
The Hogwarts bell chimed midnight and the spell on it amplified the sound, causing the ringing to reverberate around Elizabeth's Common Room. Everyone grabbed their charmed sleeping bags and laid them out on the floor, five large beds quickly taking their place.
Everyone dimmed the lights but charmed the fire to stay alive all night to fight the cool, refreshing breeze entering from the slightly ajar window. The five Hogwarts students bid each other goodnight before slipping into the warm sheets. Elizabeth and Draco's beds were side-by-side, blanketed by the magical light of the moon; adding to their bond's power.
"Love you…Draco," she said between yawns.
"…Love you Lizzie," Draco said sincerely.
They both fell asleep fingering their identical rings, symbolizing their magical bond of love.
A/N: yay me! I told you I'd update soon! I actually wrote this during my morning classes at school since I finished all my work early and it was a choice between listening to Macbeth spoken by monotone actors or write The Referee. Hmmm. Hard choice eh? Lol. Jokes. Please review; I want to try using that 'reply to review' button! Yes I am weird! New update will probably/hopefully be up this weekend.
