I\'m not usually into the threesome thing, but I really like how you put this story together. Looking forward to the next part. Oh, it is so sexy when Blaise speaks in Italian to Hermione, I love it!

What an excellent way to spend some time of an afternoon - another wonderful post. :) I absolutely LOVED the toasts. I was pissing myself laughing when I read that. I think I shall memorise the girl\'s version for the next time I hit the clubs. (if that\'s alright with you) LMAO And once again Blaise swept in and took control of everything regarding the people he loves. I love his sensitivity even though you know if you crossed him there\'s be hell to pay. I think I agree with your statement that if JKR doesn\'t portray him quite the same way in the offical books I shall be sorely disappointed too. (Don\'t like our chances though - sigh) I like how Pansy tried to make a move on Draco and got sorted out by Blaise too. How interesting that Ron did not protest to her being on his lap - I wonder if she felt the same???????

As for spelling Blaise\'s last name wrong, I most certainly did. You might not of noticed that because he doesn\'t really come into my story until much later but I\'ve edited them now so it is Zabini, not Zambini. Quite a few websites added that \'M\' though. I thank you reviewers who pointed that out for me. :) And on that note, pardon me for being greedy but I want more story please. :)

In the Australian version - Harry Potter and the Philosopher\'s Stone - it\'s spelled Zabini which means I better go check my story and do some corrections. LOL Not that we didn\'t know who Cissa was talking about anyway. :)

Please, please update soon. Seriously, I\'ll beg if that\'s what you want. I am shamefully addicted both to inappropriate men and to this ship, you must feed my addiction!...*takes deep calming breaths*....okay. Very, very good so far.

Morgana, US schools really teach children about condoms before they are even eleven years old? Seriously? Here in the UK it is usually the first year of secondary school (11 yo) that sex gets brought up in biology, most parents address the issue long before schools do. But the details of protection don\'t come up formally until about the third year (13yo) I guess (searching memory!). That\'s not to say that youngsters don\'t find these things out for themselves long before the lessons from tv and magazines etc. What are teenage pregnancy rates in the US? They\'re pretty bad here, maybe it\'s one area where we could actually benefit from following your example! Fellow Brits - did anyone hear about that family of 3 girls who all had children before 16 recently? Crazy! Perhaps us fanfic authors could demonstarte a little responsibility by mentioning contraception more? It does get ignored an awful lot.

My HP books aren\'t to hand, but Lexicon lists Blaise\'s sir name as Zabini, btw, NOT Zambini.

Sorry, NB, didn\'t mean to hijack your review page! The story kicks ass :-)

The only critique, other then you are missing an M in ZaMbini, I would make is that it appears that they have forgotten the crotaseptives. From Hermione\'s stand point as a muggleborn I suppose that could be forgiven maybe, since they have sex ed later in some countries then in the US. But for our slytherins, you\'re telling me at LEAST dear Luscious didn\'t drill contraceptives into all those lessons. Unless of course you are forshadowing by that particular statment made by mssr. Zambini made in the first chapter??
