One Love

Chapter 9

 In the following days nothing new happened, the same schedule every day- Auror training, lunch, Draco, Harry and Hermione's planning for Ron whenever they were free, sleep and repeat till one day Harry and Hermione finally agreed to Draco's plan. Ron and Pansy wrote to each other every fourth day. Even though she was away, Ron was glad that at least they have some contact. Pansy's birthday was approaching and Ron wanted to see her so bad but thought better of it. He thought he must keep the things slow a little bit so he decided that he will make a present all by himself for her and owl it to her. But Draco, Harry, and Hermione were now up to some nasty business. The night before Pansy's birthday, Ron was busy making a beautiful photo frame for Pansy and pluck flowers to make a bouquet. When he was done, he packed the gift and was ready to tie it to his owl's leg but then he heard some sound.

"Who's there?" he said.

Hermione then appeared in front of his eyes looking worried like she was going to do something wrong.

"Hi Ron"

"Hermione? What happened? Are you alright?"

"Yes, I am fine. Oh Ronald please forgive me for this"

"Forgive for wha- "

"Petrificus totalus"

Ron was stunned by her spell but he never let go of his gift which was meant for his dear Pansy. In a moment, Harry and Draco appeared with a huge wrapped gift opened at top. Harry had some things in his hand.

"You've got all the gifts?" Hermione asked Harry.

"Yep"

"Lordy! We're running outta time, put him in the box" Draco whisper yelled to the other two.

Hermione waved her wand, "Levicorpus" and safely put Ron into the box. It was 11:50 pm already. Hermione reduced the size of the box and the trio apparated in a lonely alley in Manhattan.

"Are you sure, we are in the right place?" Harry asked.

" If we are at wrong place then Draco, be ready, I'll strangle you" Hermione sneered.

"Ah, looks like you can no longer resist my charms, don't you?" Draco smirked at her.

Harry facepalmed himself.

"I don't know where were you both past some hours but we have a human in a box," Harry said to both of them.

Draco glanced at his watch-"Crap! 11:56 pm, we gotta go" and without any warning, he apparated both of them in front of Pansy's apartment.

When they landed, Harry whisper yelled at Draco, "What the hell!! You should have warned us" but Draco gestured them to keep quiet. He knocked at Pansy's door. The three of them almost yelled when she opened the door.

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY PANSY" Draco bellowed.

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY PARKINSON" Hermione and Harry joined Draco.

She seemed so happy and her expression was priceless for Draco and also would have been for Ron only if he was conscious to see that. To Draco, she was very important; she was his best friend who never left his side at any time. With tears filled in her eyes, she flung her arms and hugged Draco tightly who returned her the same embrace. Harry was happy to see that and also was Hermione but she felt a little pang of jealousy when they were hugging but she ignored it. When they pulled away, she welcomed the three of them inside her house. Harry, Hermione, and Draco gave their presents to her.

"There's something else for you, Parkinson," Harry said to her smiling.

"Pansy is fine, what is it by the way?"

Hermione then took out certain things from her beaded bag and handed them to Harry. There was a hand-knitted sweater with letter P on it by Mrs. Weasley, and a wrapped box with a letter. She opened it. It was from George.

Parkinson

Look, I don't know you so well so it was hard to figure out what you actually like. So this is a present from my side which will help you escape from the class. (Just in case, you never know).

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU SISTER.

Stay blessed.

George Weasley

Inside the package were loads of Weasley Wizard Wheezes. She almost cried, she never had a brother and now she was contented after reading George's letter. There was another package from Ginny. It was an enchanted necklace which depended on the mood of the wearer. She immediately put it on and it glowed bright gold in color, yes, because she was never this happy before in her entire life. Ginny also sent a letter to her.

Dear Pansy

Happy Birthday!! I am so sorry; I couldn't come over to your place today. You know quidditch practice, night session. Anyways, enjoy and we will meet soon. I have too many gossip topics. Till then, see ya.

Bye

Ginny

"One more thing, before you assume Ron forgot you," Hermione said to her grinning. For the first time, Hermione was looking like a kid who was just given chocolate. She truly was very happy.

Draco cast the spell, "Engorgio"

Suddenly a large wrapped gift came to life size and she was shocked. She punched Draco on arm. "What the hell, you scared me!"

"Instead of thanking us, you are hitting me, woman," Draco said faking pain in the arm.

"Now open it," Harry said to her. She nodded. Though she hesitated; she came forward and opened the gift. She was shocked to see unconscious Ron lying inside it. Draco hit Hermione on arm.

"What?"

"Aren't you forgetting something?"

"Oh yeah!"

Hermione waved her wand and Ron woke up.

"Where am I?" Ron said, "Pansy? You? Here at the burrow? Is everything alright?"

"She isn't at your place, you are at hers!" Draco said.

After a moment, he understood everything, and then he smiled. He wished her birthday and gave gifts to her. She couldn't be happier than this. She hugged him tightly and thanked him.

"We will leave you here, see you on Monday class" Draco smirked.

With this, they left Ron and Pansy and came back to London. All of them were very tired so they went to their homes contented that they did something good today.
