•TWENTY SIX•
JASMINE HAD BEEN GETTING READY for Slughorn's Christmas party all day with Hannah. The pair had been giggling and pampering themselves all for one night.
Jasmine gave the excuse that because she and Draco were to be married over the holidays and Hannah and the rest of her Hufflepuff friends wouldn't be able to attend, this should be something that she and Hannah do together as quality time.
The two best friends had readied themselves for the party and had walked out of the common room, both twirling in excitement at the thought of a party.
Jasmine was wearing a purple dress that went down to her knees whilst Hannah was wearing a yellow dress, signature Hufflepuff style.
The pair linked arms and began to turn the corner when Draco kicked off the wall outside the common room that he'd been leaning on.
"I'll give you both a moment" Hannah said kindly and unlinked her arm with Jasmines, turning the corner to give them some privacy.
"You look beautiful" Draco said as he walked towards her. He was wearing a black suit. He never seemed to wear normal clothes and Jasmine wondered what he looked like in jogging bottoms and a sweatshirt. But, he did know how to pull a suit off very well.
Jasmine's cheeks flushed pink at his statement. "Thank you, you look handsome" Jasmine smiled at the boy, who thanked her.
"I'm going to the room of requirement to work on the cabinet. After Slughorn's party, come and find me. I've got a surprise for you." Draco told her, pressing a kiss to her cheek. Jasmine nodded in response, immediately feeling giddy at this surprise he had for her.
To be quite honest, she was just looking forward to some time alone with Draco. Jasmine pressed her lips to his, telling him she'd see him later and turned the corner, finding a very bored looking Hannah.
The two linked arms again and walked down to the party, Jasmine clearly a lot more excited than she had been previously.
They walked into the party, spotting Blaise in the corner talking to another Slytherin boy. He raised his glass at Jasmine as he spotted her, she smiled at her friend, giving him a wave.
Neville Longbottom handed the two girls glasses of non alcoholic apple cider, blushing immediately when he saw Hannah, Hannah doing the same. Jasmine grinned at her friend as she saw the interaction.
"Jasmine, my dear! And Miss Abbott is it? So glad you could come tonight!" Slughorn approached the pair, both Hannah and Jasmine smiling at the man. "Its an honour to be here sir" Jasmine smiled as he shook the pairs hands.
"Come, Jasmine. Let's have a picture shall we. I'm sure I'll get the one I have with you and the one with your mother mixed up. You look so much like her" Slughorn gushed, Jasmine didn't answer this time, she felt a lump form in her throat at the mention of her mother. She just simply nodded and followed the man to where the photographer was stood.
