A/N: I know this took a long time to come out and is like really short- I'm sorry- Also this includes a total of one swear word- I think it's just one word- Also the swear word is a part of a dirty joke-

Hermione's P.O.V:

We haven't heard much about Malfoy's break out in a while, and I mean Lucius, not Draco. Speaking of which. Draco had been staying at Zabini manor for the holidays, Blaise made sure he was living far away from me. I don't know why, we share a common room at school.

Today was the Christmas Eve party. I was pretty excited to be completely honest. I was going as Hermione, since everyone knew me as Hermione whereas only, like, 4 people knew me as Marina.

I was getting ready, I was wearing a halter neck dress, the straps went around my neck in a criss-cross way, the front of the dress stopped at my knees while the back fell to the floor with a little trailing on the floor. The colours of the dress was a light pink at the top that faded to a dark red at the bottom. I paired the dress with red 6 inch heels. I put my hair half up half down, the half up bit was braided around my hair with flower clips in it. For my make up I put on light pink lipgloss, with a tiny brush of blush and a little red to pink eye shadow.

I walk out and see Blaise and Draco waiting for me, I blush when I catch Draco staring at me. Draco was in a black robe and a green tie, we hadn't coordinated on purpose. Blaise was wearing a dark blue, almost black, robe with a navy blue tie, and he and Greengrass had coordinated. I walk up to the boys, I give Blaise a quick hug and give Draco a quick kiss.

We all headed down, no one was here yet, obviously since it was only 6 p.m. the party started in an hour, It would end when everyone left. We all went into the ballroom to see how it had been set up.

We walked in and I gasped. It was amazing. There were candles set up in a way that made it look like fairy lights. The chandelier was casting snowflake shadows around the room, on the other side of the room was the tree, it was so tall it touched the ceiling, and that's saying something. The tree was decorated with baubles and other things and the star on top looked beautiful! There was a food table at each wall in the room, they were full of all sorts of food. It was simple and elegant. I walk in and spin in a circle, I look and notice holly all over the ceiling and it was on the wall as well.

We all walk out and sit in the living room since we really didn't have anything else to do. I decide to text my friends.

Everyone is offline

With Hermione:

"I'm gonna go meet up with my friends, I'll be back later" I tell Blaise and Draco.

"Arlight." Blaise says still on his phone.

"Ok." Draco says still on his phone.

I roll my eyes. And walk out. The heels aren't as uncomfortable as they seem, when I walk out of the bounds, out of the protective spells, I apparate away to the burrow.

When I arrive I see Harry, Ginny and Ron waiting for me. Harry and Ron were both in black robes. Ron was wearing a red tie, no we did not try to coordinate. Harry was wearing a dark purple tie that matched Ginny's dress. I give each of them a hug before we walk in. We chill for like 40 minutes before Mr. and Mrs. Weasley came down. They are also matching, Mrs. Weasley is wearing an aqua dress and Mr. Weasley is wearing black robes with an aqua tie. They both smile at me and give me a hug each. Soon Fred and George come down is black robes and red ties. Bill, Charlie and Percy aren't coming since they're all busy.

"We should all get going." Mrs. Weasley says, looking at the clock. It's 7:09 now, there are probably a lot of people at the party already. We all walk outside and take each other's hands, it's safer to travel hand-in-hand so we don't land in different parts of Zabini manor's entrance- it's big so we would be easily lost.

When we land we're in front of the gate. We all walk up to the manor. "Whoa! It's bigger than Malfoy Manor!" Ron says, staring. I feel a chill go down my spine at the mention of Draco's home, I clutch my arm where my scar is covered with makeup. No one notices, which I'm grateful for.

We walk up to the door, some people are still walking in, Blaise and mum are at the entrance greeting people on either side. Though there are people going through that don't get greeted because the entrance is just that big. We walk up and see Blaise. "Nice of you to come, Mr. and Mrs. Weasley." Blaise says nicely, they both smile at him.

"It was our pleasure. Thank you for inviting us!" Mrs. Weasley says beaming.

We walk into the ballroom and I'm nearly blown away from the noise. It's so loud, the band has set up in the hour and something I was gone. It looks so different with people here now. Harry, Ginny, Ron and I separate from Mr. and Mrs. Weasley and go find Luna and Neville.

"Hey guys!" Neville calls, we turn towards his voice and find him and Luna. Luna's in a silver dress with little gold beads on the dress, Neville was wearing dark grey robes and a silver tie. We walk toward them and they walk towards us, we meet half way and exchange hugs and greetings.

After a while of talking, dancing and eating, all of us are sitting around a table. I'm cradling a glass of butterbeer and people watching while my friends talk. I make eye contact with Draco across the room, he's leaning against a wall with a class in his hand. He comes and goes from my vision as more people walk in front of us, though we manage to keep eye contact.

*Are you two done eye fucking eachother?* I choke on my drink and start coughing and I hear Blaise laugh from nearby. I feel my cheeks go completely red while my friends ask if I'm ok. I have never been happier that no one can hear what's in my head.

I quickly get up and grab some paper towels to clean my dress. I glance up and see Blaise smirking at me. I glare at him in return. My dress was ruined. I grab my wand and clean it up, I will forever be grateful for magic. I sit back down and glare at my friends who were trying to stifle their laughs. At least they have no idea what Blaise said.

It's been a few hours, I'm in bed in my pyjamas with a silencing spell around my bed and all I can think about is the party. We didn't talk to Blaise, Draco and their friends and I don't know why but that makes me sad. I really wished that we could, I don't know, become friends. I know that Harry and Ginny are more inclined to forgive but Ron hates Draco. I wish life would be easier.

A/N: Hope you enjoyed! It was fun to write but I'm kinda running out of ideas- And Hermione's dress is purely my imagination so that's why there are no pics! Cya later! (Feathers? Would that be a good nickname?)
