PS: I hate Pansy and you will see MAJOR Pansy bashing in this chapter.

PSS: Thanks to all of you who gave me inspiration. I think I found a punishment most fitting for our dear whore. Tell me what you think.

Two chapters in less then an hour... a sorry for forgetting that i had posted this story here also! :-)

Chapter 8: Revenge is a dish best served viciously and publicly.

--

In the aftermath of the potions class debacle, it can be said that there was mixed responses. Each house had their own views, as did the heads of those houses. McGonagall was horrified to see one of her Gryffindors treated in such a way, Severus was all but a quiver with glee at Potter’s misfortune, while Dumbledore just sat there with his blasted twinkle in his eye, like he planned this whole thing.

The students, however, had more divided feelings. The Hufflepuffs thought it was a tragic tail, of a hero destined to be alone but falling in love with a man who was in love with two people but those two people were in fact the same person… honestly it was hard to tell what the sappy fools thought. All they saw was love and compassion and hurt feelings and, to be quite frank, everyone just ignored them.

The Ravenclaws and the Gryffindors were on the same side. They both felt that Harry was unjustly hurt and the tart Pansy should be punished viciously and with great malice. That being said none of the “brave” Gryffindors were stepping up to the challenge and the Ravenclaws were taking to much blasted time analyzing everything to actually come up with a workable plan.

The Slytherins had no side really. Honestly they could care less. Why? Well Christmas was coming and all they could focus on was how many presents mommy and daddy would be sending them.

All in all Hogwarts was, as ever, divided among the houses on whose side to take. So they left it up to the key players to sort it out. They just hoped it would be sorted out in a way where everyone could see and place bets on.

~~

There were two things that really upset Hermione Granger. One would be, not getting every single possible point available on any exam, test, or quiz. The other would be seeing her friends get hurt. So one would be surprised to see Ms. Granger heading to the kitchens the day after her best friend got his heart publicly smashed and then have the pieces blown to bits.

Hermione tickled the pear and, with a face of great determination, she slipped into the kitchen in search of a certain house elf that could help her reap her vengeance upon the evil pug whore.

~~

Theo took a deep breath and knocked on Pansy’s prefect door. He dropped the letter and ran for his life.

-Can’t let the pug see me, god save me if she did. - He thought as he hid behind the corner, hidden but still able to see her door.

Pansy opened her door, looked around, sighed with annoyance and just as she was about to slam the door in irritation she spotted a letter on the floor. Intrigued she picked up the letter and gently shut her door. Theo smirked and went to tell Hermione of the progress.

~~

Pansy sat down at her desk to read the letter. She noticed the seal, as it was Draco’s family seal and she should know the seal of her future husband. Pansy opened the letter and smiled.

//Dear Pansy,

What can I say? You were right, as always. You told me that no one would ever be better then you, or treat me the way you do and, once again, you proved to be right. And you know I don’t admit that to anyone.

Let’s eat dinner tonight and talk about how I can make up my horrible behavior to you.

With love,
Your Draco.//

Pansy squealed with delight. She did it! She knew that if she revealed Potter as the phony she always believed him to be she would get Draco back. Gay or no Draco was hers! And Pansy always got what she wanted.

-I have nothing to wear!- Pansy though as she dove to her closet.

~~

“Did you give her the letter?” Hermione asked. She, Theo, Blaise, and Ron had met in her rooms to discuss the plans.

Ron was briefed of everything that morning. He had been serving a months worth of detentions for setting fire to the charms classroom and causing classes to be relocated until January so he was behind on everything that had been going on.

He was taking the news that his best friend was in love with, slept with, and then got dumped by his and their worst enemy very well… granted he hadn’t blinked or said one word since finding out but still he could have been out doing something stupid.

“Yep. She recognized the seal and took the letter immediately.” Theo said. Blaise was looking at Ron and waving his hand in front of his face.

“Bit creepy he is. Does he do this frequently?” Blaise asked.

“Only when he’s overwhelmed,” Hermione answered. “Don’t know what he’s going to do when they get back together.” She said.

“Ok so I’ll make sure that Pansy takes the goblet with the potion and we sit back and watch the fun.” Theo said.

“I hope the potion works. I wanted this all to happen before vacation, so I had to pay the twins double to brew it faster.” Hermione said.

“We’ll see.” Blaise said.

“BLOODY HELL!” Ron yelled. Hermione sighed.

“You two go ahead, I’ll catch up.” She said. Blaise and Theo left, leaving Hermione to answer Ron’s questions.

~~
Harry sat at the Gryffindor table waiting for the feast to start. He couldn’t wait until tomorrow when the vacation started and he could be able to stay in his bed all day and no one would care. Okay so people will care but it was his vacation and he could do what he wanted.

The noise level began to increase and he could tell the school was arriving. His traitorous eyes went to the Slytherin table and he shivered as he felt the temperature drop when he laid his eyes on Draco.

-Just forget about him Harry and get through dinner. Then you can go and hide until January. - Harry thought.

~~

Theo and Blaise took the customary positions on both sides of Draco.

“So did you decide what you’re doing tomorrow?” Theo asked

“I’m staying here, in my room, and waiting for this blasted holiday to be over with.” Draco said.

“A bit over dramatic wouldn’t you say?” Blaise said.

“No, over dramatic would be staying there until school was over. And trust me, the thought did cross my mind.” Draco said.

~~

“Hiya Harry!” Hermione chirped. She and Ron took their spots next to Harry. Hermione looked at Theo and Blaise. They both nodded.

“Look mate,” Ron said, “Hermione filled me in. I’m sorry I wasn’t there for you.” Harry looked at Ron.

“Why are you sorry?” Harry asked.

“If I hadn’t set fire to the classroom and got a month’s worth of detention I would have been there for you to talk to or something.” Ron said.

“Oh… well thanks. If it makes you feel any better I haven’t been much company. And it was worth it to see Seamus and Dean try to put Lavender’s shirt out with a water spell only to produce a wine spell and make it worse.” Harry said smiling.

“That was quite funny.” Ron said. Noise at the door caused them too look over. They noticed Pansy pushing her way through the crowd.

“Move, Move, Move, Move or I’ll move you!” Pansy said.

“Wonder what’s got her knickers in a twist.” Harry asked. Hermione and Ron smirked.

Pansy continued to push her way through the crowed until she reached the Slytherin table. She shoved Theo down the bench and sat next to Draco. The Hall got eerily quite; this is what they had been waiting for. They all held their breath and watched.

“Hello Draco Darling. I’m here and ready to accept your apology. All boys go through this phase and I know it won’t happen again. Now I was looking over my calendar and I think April is good for the party. I think it’s best for us to get it out of the way before graduation that way-“

“Excuse me Pansy but what the bloody hell are you going on about?” Draco interrupted.

“Our engagement party and our wedding silly. Now I’ve always pictured myself as a June bride. Of course if-“

“I thought I made myself perfectly clear at the meeting our parents had last year. I am not, nor have I ever been, interested in you. I’d rather have my dick surgically removed the muggle way, with rusty contaminated instruments, in a third world country then even THINK about conceiving a child with you. In fact the thought alone makes me entirely nauseated. Get it through your thick dull brained skull, I’M GAY! Live with it.” Draco said in a very calm and collected voice that sent a chill down every single spine in the Great Hall.

“B-but the letter,” Pansy sputtered.

“I wrote you no letter you stupid pug faced bint. Now leave me alone.” Draco said. Pansy began to hyperventilate. Hermione nodded to Theo.

“Here Pansy. Drink this; it has a claming drought in it.” Theo said handing her the goblet. Pansy drained the goblet of its contents and looked across the hall. Her eyes settled on Harry, who was trying very hard not to laugh.

“You.” She said slamming the goblet down. She jumped on to the table scattering the empty plates onto the floor and walked over it onto the floor on the other side. She did the same to the Hufflepuff table and then landed in front of Harry, Hermione, and Ron.

“This is your fault Potter.” Pansy said.

“How?” Harry asked looking confused.

“If you hadn’t spread your legs like the little whore you are I would have Draco all to myself.” She said. Harry smirked and stood up.

“It would take a whore to call someone else a whore Parkinson. And let me let you in on a little secret. If it wasn’t me as Fluffy who made Draco realize who he really was it would have been me as me who did it. Face it honey, you’re not made for him.” Harry said.

“It’s not fair, why do you always get what you want? YOU RUINED EVERYTHING! I WORKED HARD TO GET THAT POITION THE WAY I WANTED IT!” Pansy screamed. She gasped and covered her mouth. All eyes, including the teachers, turned to her.

“What are you saying Pansy did you tamper with the Veritaserum?” Hermione said standing up.

“Yes!” Pansy said shaking her head no. She looked around the hall. “OK FINE! I had to. Potter always gets what he wants, but what about what I want?! Every year I do something to get Draco to notice me, but it fails. No matter who I bribe, what teachers who I sleep with-“ She stopped and slapped her hands over her mouth again. Minerva went to stand up but Dumbledore stopped her.

“What did you do to the Potion?” Ron asked.

“I was tired of Potter getting away with everything and still getting whatever he wanted. I had been spying on his and Draco’s sessions and knew they were both close to revealing the truth, that’s when I got my plan. I figured out how to make the Veritaserum more concentrated so one dose was equal to one hundred. Lavender had no clue. I knew that if I just exposed Potter before he came clean to Draco it would make matters worse and Draco would never ever speak to Potter and then he’d be mine. But Potter brainwashed him and now I’ll never have him!” Pansy shrieked.

“I knew you did something to it.” Hermione said.

“How?” Ron said.

“Potter can throw of the Imperius Curse. Only a super strength version could cause him to lose total control the way he did during class.” Theo said.

“Makes sense now. I want to know which teachers she slept with.” Blaise said.

“The Muggle Studies professor from last year. Draco was spending all his time doing his blasted muggle studies homework I had to do something to free up his time.” Pansy screamed and covered her mouth again, “What’s wrong with me?!”

“Your own tricked played back on you.” Hermione said.

“You think you’d notice that there was no food on the tables.” Blaise said

“Or wonder how I got you pumpkin juice so fast.” Theo said.

“It had a vial of super strength Veritaserum in it.” Ron smirked

“And you drank the whole goblet.” Hermione said, “I also added another potion to the mix. You now will be telling the truth for the rest of your life.” She said.

“Excellent Ms. Granger. Ms. Parkinson you will see me in my office immediately. Sexual activity between a student and a teacher is a very serious offense. Now I will take leniency if he persuaded you-“ Dumbledore started.

“I was waiting in his chambers after dinner. He had drunk a lust potion at dinner so he jumped the first female he saw.” Pansy said through her hands. Dumbledore looked at her, the twinkle gone from his eyes.

“My office, now.” He said. She nodded and ran from the room. The entire room cheered. Money exchanged hands and everyone settled down for a good meal, except Harry and Draco. Harry stood up and walked around the tables and stood in front of Draco. Once again the hall was silent.

“Draco,” Harry said softly.

“Is today my day for stalkers? I told you Potter I never want to see you again.” Draco said coldly.

“But you heard her. She knew I was going to tell you, and I was! That’s what I was going to tell you after class.”

“It doesn’t matter. You lied to me.” Draco said standing up and walking away from Harry. Harry grabbed his arm and spun him around.

“I never lied to you Draco. Had you come out and asked me if I knew or if I was Fluffy I would have had to courage to tell you, but you didn’t. If anyone is the liar it’s you. You put on this face for everyone and the one time you could show your true nature, the one I know is in there somewhere, the one I saw that night, you put on the Lucius mask and stomp all over whatever hope I had left.

“I trusted you Draco, I put everything out there for you on paper and in person, and you couldn’t do it for me. If anyone should be mad it’s me. But it’s not, because I love you. I only wish I could say the same for you. Because you wouldn’t do this to someone you love.” Harry said and walked out of the Great Hall.

The hall was silent as Draco walked back to the table. He sat down and looked at his plate. No one said a word for the entire meal.
