Chapter Ten
Chapter Ten
The next couple of days, Hermione and Draco were busy arranging study groups and discussing ideas for the school. “So, what should we plan for Halloween this year, it’s only about a month away.” Hermione asked.
“Haven’t thought much about it. Do you have any ideas?” Draco asked.
“Well, although the masquerade balls were fun, it’s been done too much over the years....How about....maybe a fair of some kind.” She suggested.
“What do you mean, a ‘fair’”. He asked with a puzzled expression.
“Well, muggles sometimes plans these big events where there are games, rides and competitions for prizes. We could maybe have broom racing as one of the competitions. There was also things like pie-eating contests or even trying to dunk someone in a large tank of water by throwing a ball at a target. And at night, maybe have a formal dance outside under the stars.”
Draco looked at Hermione. “That actually sounds like it might be an all right idea. Who would you suggest to be dunked?” He said smirking. “Potter or Weasley by chance?” He said hopefully.
Hermione glared at him trying to hide the smile, “No. Not Harry or Ron, unless they volunteer for it. I was thinking along the lines of maybe some of the professors. Also, Hagrid can have a few unusual creatures, kind of like a sideshow or something. I personally would like to see a dragon up close.”
“That sounds good, maybe we should have a meeting with the prefects and the professors for some ideas. This way also, all the students can join in the festivities.” Draco added.
The next day they brought up the idea with Professor Dumbledore who like the originality of the idea.
Later that night after dinner, Dumbledore assembled the professors and prefects together and laid out the plans and ideas that Draco and Hermione had come up with. “Well, going over Miss Granger and Mr. Malfoy’s plans, is there any comments or opinions that you may have.” Dumbledore asked looking around the room.
Snape sneered, “Isn’t it kind of chilly for a fair at that time of year?”
Professor Flitwick spoke up. “That’s easy enough to remedy, we can charm the area to make it a bit warmer for the students.”
“I also think it would be nice for the students to have a Hogsmeade trip in case they want to shop for their dress robes.” Hermione added.
“Sounds fair enough. Now who should go in the dunking tank?” Dumbledore asked his eyes twinkling as he scanned the room.
“Why not the Head Boy and Head Girl here?” Snape said with a hopeful gleam in his eye.
Hermione looked over to Snape. “Well, Professor, I don’t know about Malfoy here, but I will if you will.”
Snape raised his brow as Dumbledore chuckled, “Well, we have a bit of time to decide. Maybe we can get the students ideas on who they would like to see dunked. Well, it’s getting late. I think if there’s any further ideas, to submit it to Hermione and Draco here for further consideration.” He said as he then watched as everyone left the room except for Professor McGonagall.
“Albus, it’s rather surprising that Miss Granger and Mr. Malfoy came up with this idea together, isn’t it? I didn’t expect them to get along as well as they have this soon.” McGonagall said.
“I never had any doubts between those two. Mind you, it’s still quite early in the year, anything still could happen I suppose.” Dumbledore replied as he escorted the Professor to the door.
Draco and Hermione sat in their common room, both reading. Hermione put down her magazine she was reading. “Well, I’m off to bed.....the meeting went rather well, didn’t it?”
“Yes, I suppose it did. It was a good idea, even it was from you.” He said smirking.
“Yes, well whatever Malfoy. Goodnight.” She said in an answering grin.
Draco picked up the magazine after she left the room curious on what she was reading. He opened it to see pages and pages of dresses, some that were quite revealing. He wondered which ones she decided to wear tomorrow night as he went off to bed himself.
