Everyone follows us out the room and me and Draco lead, flying out the common room and into the corridor. I stop, not really knowing what way to go, until Blaise runs past us- grabbing my hand and now dragging me along with him.

''Where are we going Blaise?'' I ask as we turn a corner.

''Our spot.'' He replies, his out of breath voice signifying the effort into his sprint.

We keep running until we reach the quidditch stadium, where we then wait for everyone else to catch up. Draco arrived shortly after us, then Theo and Pansy, then Daphne and Lila, who look as if they hadn't even bothered trying to keep up.

''You guys put way too much effort into this!'' Pansy says, peeping round the ginormous wall, the only thing keeping me from seeing this 'Amazing picnic'.

''Kel, Lila come here.'' Draco says, blindfolding us and leading me towards the picnic.

I feel the lush, green, soft grass brush past my ankles and I can taste sweet rose at the tip of my tongue. Draco's soft, cold hands are in mine, guiding me around the wall and I can start to feel the warmth of the suns rays beaming down on me as we come out of the shadows. We walk for a little longer until Draco tells me to sit down.

''Can we take off our blindfolds?'' Lila asks, now sat beside me.

''You ready?'' Blaise says, talking to Draco who's next to me.

I feel his familiar cold hands grasp the back of my blindfold and untie the fabric. The silk falls off my face and reveals the beautiful, unreal scene around me. We are sat on a pastel green blanket in the middle of the stadium, and in the centre of the rug lay every type of picnic food possible.

There are sandwiches with every filling, mini sausage rolls and cocktail sausages; there are crisps and cookies and cakes and every type of exotic fruit imaginable. On the side, next to Theo, is a bucket of ice filled to the brim with alcohol. There's fire whiskey, beer, Daisyroot Draught, Gin, Bungbarrel Spiced Mead, Red currant rum, Sherry and Elderflower wine- all ready to be cracked open.

Draco turns towards me and smirks at me. ''Sooo Is this good enough for the two newest members of the Royals?''

I look round at everyone grinning at me and bring them all into a hug.

''This is perfect!'' Lila says.

We all sit back and open a drink each, tucking into the sandwiches. Surprisingly, when I look back at Draco, he fills his plate with cakes and cookies.

''I didn't realise you had such a sweet tooth Dray?''

Draco looks up, shoving his face with the treats but Pansy begins to laugh.

''He always has Kel, you would never believe it-''

''You cant call her Kel Pansy. Only I can.'' Draco interrupts.

''Merlin Draco, mate, possessive much?'' Blaise adds, laughing.

Theo sneaks out of the conversation and pops open the Bungbarrel Spiced Mead, the cork flying over the blanket and hitting Blaise on the head.

''You little shit Theo!'' Blaise shouts, aiming to throw a few sausage rolls at him but instead smashing Draco in the face.

''BLAISE ZABINI YOU'D BETTER START RUNNING!!'' Draco shouts, getting up and beginning to sprint after Blaise who's already running after Theo.

They chase each other around the field while me, Lila, Pansy and Daphne laugh at them.

''What do you say girls, I think there's a bump in the end of the road?'' Pansy says, smirking and whipping out her wand.
