The clicking of my shoes echoed across the empty castle corridors. One after the other, click, click. I felt pretty smug with myself, and that surprised me. I'm not the kind of girl who goes looking for problems or trouble, but I guess that punk phase caught up to me.

I climbed up the changing staircases, on my way to see Dumbledore. Once I reached his corridor, I wondered if he would be mad with me. I wasn't quite sure if I liked this part of getting in trouble: the swift discipline that followed.

"You have some nerve Granger."

I spun around letting my belongings fall to the floor. Even though I heard it every day, his voice still gave me the shivers.

"What do you want Malfoy?" I paid him the little attention he deserved and crouched down to gather my books and quills.

"Nothing, just to ask you a few questions" he said while handing me a parchment that had flung loose.

"What questions?" I asked precariously.

"You said that you wouldn't stand in your place or accept humiliation, and I must admit you did prove yourself worthy of that…" He paused as if to bite his tongue from offering up any more praise. "I wanted to ask how far you would go."

I shifted where I stood. "How far I would go for what?"

"Keeping that naughty image I assume you now possess." He smiled the evil smile; the one that sent girls swooning. All it did was make me feel a bit uncomfortable.

"Naughty?" I thought for a moment while straightening my skirt. "What are you proposing Malfoy?"

"Well, tomorrow there is a party in the Slytherin common room. It's a secret party that the administration knows nothing about, and only Slytherins are invited. I was wondering if you were up for the challenge."

"The challenge of crashing a party? Really Malfoy, that isn't much of a challenge."

"We'll wait and see." He turned on his heel and walked off, leaving me to think. Unfortunately, I just stood there, aloof to that fact that I had a meeting with the headmaster to attend to. I looked up from where I stood to catch Malfoy disappear at the end of the hall. I made up my mind.

I chased after him.
