Tall, Dark & Temporary Chapter 2
Chapter 2.
Harry glanced at Ron & Hermione, who were discussing Dumbledore’s announcement rapidly, "Can’t believeMalfMalfoy!!……. How can he do this to us!!……. Should I write & complain??" Harry stifled a chuckle at Hermione’s last comment, he didn’t know why she was complaining, She’d been paired with one of the best looking boys in their year, & one that was as smart as her, too. He wouldn’t have minded being paired with Draco, as the boy was now a, whats the term, friendly acquaintance, He knew the boy had a mild fascination with Hermione, so, this would be good for Draco, at least. Harry sighed, luckily not heard by the two arguing in front of him. He was with Snape, he was going to be Harry Potter-Snape, what scared him the most was that it actually sounded good!! He wasn’t complaining, it wouldn’t change anything, & he was curious to experience what it felt like to be cared for, to belong to someone else, it didn’t bother him that it was Snape, ‘cause Snape was actually pretty good looking, & Hermione had actually managed to touch the hair, & had discovered that it only looked greasy, in fact, it was soft & smooth, Hermione had confessed, in a fit of jealously, that she was jealous of Snape’s hair, as hers got dry easily. Harry smiled, imagining the look on Snape’s face if he had heard that comment about him. Harry started to look out the window, thinking about things, as Hermione & Ron kept discussing the announcement.
ER">~~~~~~~Scene Change~~~~~~~~~~~
Draco sighed, as he sat in his chambers, (A/N: > Draco & Hermione are Head Boy/Girl, therefore, they share a set of rooms. *Waggles eyebrows*) He couldn’t believe this, he had been paired with Granger, the busy-haired, know-it-all Gryfinndor whose life he had been making hell out of for the past 7 years. The worst part was the fact that he had discovered that his mind & body were fascinated with the muggle-born girl, his mind wanted to work out how she ticked & his body wanted hers. Granger had gotten hot dur6
Potter & the Weasel came looking for her & retrieved her from his clutches. Draco clenched his fists, she assumed that all he had said and done would be taken back upon finding out her true identity. Draco smirked, now was the time to prove to the girl that all he had said to her at the beginning of the year was his true feelings for her, he now had a chance to properly woo the girl, without her friends, or any Slytherin or Gryfinndors around. Draco sat, staring into the fire, as his devious mind plotted the scheme to get the girl.
~~~~~~~~~~~~Scene Change~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dumbledore sat at his desk, trying not to laugh at the two pissed off teachers in front of him. "Albus, this is an outrage, Potter & I will kill each other in the first day of this farce of an marriage!!" Snape stated, while McGonagoll nodded in agreement next to him. Dumbledore rose from behind his desk & walked to the stairway to his chambers before answering. "Severus, Minerva, as I told the students, I can do nothing, complain to the Minister, not me, now, goodnight." & before either could reply, bolted up the stairs to safety. Snape & McGonagoll looked at each other & sighed. They then got up, bid each other goodnight, & went to their chambers. Dumbledore sat at his fireplace, stroking Fawkes’ feathers & had one thought, beforoppropping into slumber, " These are going to be the hardest ceremonies I will ever have to perform."
