ON WITH THE STORY~

Chapter 3

Blaise's pov (same point from where the owls came in during Chapter 2)

Hermione and I were having a great conversation about things that have happened in the past, school, lives before Hogwarts, random jokes and it was turning into a really good conversation. Then out of the blue, two owls came up to us. One I had recognized, a snowy owl that all the girls drool over at school I think her name is Hedwig. The other one was a small barn owl that Hermione looked thrilled to see. She asked me if she could go respond to the letters and I nodded, thinking that I needed to talk to Draco anyways, because we have to plan Hermione's welcome home/ our birthday bash. I dropped her off at her rooms and went down the hall to my rooms that are almost a carbon copy of her rooms except mine were in the green and brown spectrum. I sat there with the list of invites for the party tonight, when Draco face flooed (where you see there head in the fire) and we talked about some minuscule things we had to do during the party. Then just when we had gotten to a good part in the conversation guess who just happens to burst in the room. You guessed it Hermione. Joy. I quickly shoved the list out of sight and Draco removed his head out of the fire after promising that he would be back. She came in thinking she would scare me and came behind me and she asked 'What you doing?'

'Nothing.'

With suspicion in her voice she asked 'What was that?'

'You'll see.'

'Can't I see it?'

'No.'

'Why not?'

Getting annoyed I spoke 'It's a secret that I'm planning.'

'Oh who's the secret for?'

'Our parent's.' I tricked her.

'What are you going to do?'

'You'll find out later today.'

'Come on why not now?'

'Because I'm not finished with it.'

'Why can't I help you plan it.'

You can't know right now! I screamed in my head 'Because.'

'Because isn't a answer. Now tell me what it is!'

'Fine. I have to show it to you but not quite yet there is still a few details that I have to get planned out.' Oh how Slytherin of me.

'Oh, what's the plan?'

'I am not going to tell you it.'

'Fine I'm going to the stable's.'

'Ok see you later.'

'Fine.' She stomped out. At least that was the end of that. I quickly had Draco floo over. We went down to the ball rom in the locked quarters of the house to help the house elves decorate. Giving some last instructions to them a hour later we walked to the Malfoy Manor that is next lot over. It's a long walk but oh well fresh air is good for us.

….{}…. Hermione's Pov From where left off….{}….

After I was done riding with dad, we took Serena and Eliot to the house elves that manned the stables to be looked after. Dad walked me up to the house and left me be to wander the Manor. As I explored, up and down the large halls were pictures of our ancestor's they were all beautiful and handsome but they seemed like they could care less that there were other people in the hall's, instead they were making conversations to each other. Eventually I found where the gym and pool were, they were on in the right wing on the 3rd floor. I found that most of the right wing of the house had the activity rooms, I saw one room that looked like a dance studio, and made a mental note of that so I remembered to use it. There was also a large muggle arcade room that had almost all the games I could imagine in it, and then farther down the fourth floor I found her. One ancestor, who as a small child had to be one of the most beautiful girl's in the world. She had large doe eyes in a lovely ocean blue, her face resembled mine and she had locks of black curly hair cascading down her back, with her was a large dog that was almost up to her shoulders. When the little girl saw me she jumped up from her seat and came to the front of her portrait and started saying 'Hello, who are you why haven't I seen you before? Are you new here? What's your name?'

I responded 'Hey, I'm Hermione, and I actually am new here, I just got here today at that, but I am going to be living her from now on. Since you asked me some questions may I ask you some?' She eagerly nodded her head. 'What is your name? Since you know mine, at what point in time was your portrait painted? Why are you so eager to talk to me, because everyone else has ignored me.'

In a small voice I heard her reply 'My name is Hermione to, but, I lived in 1750's, I was painted when I was Five and I have kept my five year old quirks, I think my second portrait from when I was 20 is somewhere down this hall.' We kept talking like this, and that was how my mom found me, talking to my ancestor from 200 years ago. She interrupted our conversation and asked me if I wanted to go shopping with her so of course, I can never pass up a shopping spree.

….{}… Aline's Pov ….{}….

I found Hermione speaking with one of our ancestor's portrait's, when I got closer to her I saw who she was speaking to, I immediately remembered her, I spent most of my childhood talking to Hermione, just as Hermione was. When I got to her, she immediately turned around. 'Hermione, I was wondering if you would like to go shopping with me, I can show you some nice stores, at a different place than Diagon Alley and Hogsmead.' Her face brightened at those words.

'Those places never have the best of anything'

'Yes I know dear that's why I'm taking you to Hidden Grove, it has many wonderful stores and I know we can find you some wonderful dress robes, and new clothes.'

'That's really cool can we go now?'

'Of course.' We walked out of the manor till we could apparate and then I took her to the Hidden Grove shopping area. 'It's in the middle of Spain, well hidden from muggle's and has the most up to date fashions from all over the world. Lets go to the best store here it's Stardust Fashion, they have the best service, the women and men that work there can take your measurements, look at you and come back to you with the best things for you to wear.' I explained as we walked. She took in the stores admirably, and almost immediately she asked if there was a bookstore. I laughed and told her there was a flourish and bolts here to, she looked like she was tickled pink.

We went inside and we immediately had two lady's come up to us saying that they would be back with the clothes and a third lady came and brought us to a changing room. Almost 5 minutes later the 2 lady's from early came with almost 20 different dress robes, and 80 outfits. The dress robes came in wonderful dresses and wizard robes, Hermione chose at least 10 of the prettiest dresses that were a mix of blues, pinks, purples and yellows. She chose a great majority of the outfits that they brought, and then I asked for one more thing, Hermione looked at me probably thinking what I was asking for. Then they brought out the most beautiful blue dress, it was a strapless full-length dress, going from the top and the lightest blue to the bottom a rich dark blue. The corset had appliques on it and lace lining the top and the diagonal cut top. It was layered tulle and one of the most beautiful thing I ever seen. She tried it on and we both automatically fell in love with it. We quickly bought all the clothes, jewelry and shoes. Going quickly into flourish and bolts to buy several books, then we apparated home.

….{}…. Hermione's pov….{}….

After we spent a while at the stardust fashion store we quickly got me some books and apparated home. Mum took me to my room immediately and then sitting on one of my chairs I saw Ginny in the room. 'Ginny! What are you doing here? Why didn't you warn me you were coming?'

'Well your mom told me to come over and the Maurice brought me up, She told me that she hoped I could help you with your makeup and hair, so I said I would. They said that we would have so much fun tonight with everyone.'

'Oh wow, I didn't know we were having something going on tonight.'

My mom interjected in our conversation 'Yes we do, and we need to get you in that wonderful blue dress.' With a smile she got it out. Ginny's mouth dropped at the sight of it, 'It's beautiful, you will look wonderful at the…' she stopped the sentence short from a look from my mom. They sat me in a chair and made me look amazing they had my hair up in a half bun leaving the rest of my hair cascading in soft curls down my back. With little makeup on, and a soft gold mask I looked in the mirror, I let out a soft gasp. The walked me down two flights of stairs till I was on the second floor and they walked me down to a pair of extravagant golden door that were maned by a house elf. They looked at me and opened the doors and…
