This time, Malfoy and I were the first pair to enter the main room. I did think this was strange since we had taken more time to fix our appearance than the last round, but the same seemed to be true for the others. Hermione and Nott were second. Hermione looked thoroughly snogged, if I'm being honest, but good for her. I didn't think anything else had happened between her and Nott, but I knew that it was hard for her to let go in the first place, so I was happy for her. Neville and Davis were next, and Davis was... a mess. There was mascara smeared under her eyes which I could tell she tried to wipe off, her dress and rumpled and her hair was tousled. I mean, well done Neville, I didn't know if he had it in him. Harry and Greengrass came out next, and Greengrass looked composed as always while Harry's clothes were very wrinkled. His hair was a mess and, if I wasn't mistaken, his wrists were a little red. Wow, I didn't even want to think about that. Ginny and Zabini came out of their room holding hands. Holding hands. This time, Zabini looked rather satisfied and Ginny was flustered. What the hell did he do to her? Ron and Parkinson were last again, and they certainly looked like they had made up. They opened the door snogging. I quickly looked away; that was not something I ever wanted or thought I would ever see. I felt sick.

When we were all back on the sofas, we weren't exactly in our original seats. Parkinson was sitting in Ron's lap, so her spot between Nott and Daphne was filled by Hermione. Hermione was still deep in conversation with Nott, so I guessed he had to be smarter than he seemed for her to find him that interesting. Zabini had stolen Malfoy's seat on the sofa so that he could be next to the armrest where Ginny sat, her arm resting on the back of the sofa and her legs on top of his. Malfoy was just sitting in Zabini's spot. That left me on the Gryffindor girl's sofa by myself. Malfoy did seem irritated by this arrangement, but I guessed that the main reason of his annoyance had been the timer interrupting us.

"If everyone could make their way back to their original seats, we can begin this round," Malfoy boomed over the several conversations happening.

Everyone obeyed, though they took enough time to wrap up their conversations. Soon enough, we were all back in our original seats.

We all knew that it was Malfoy's turn to draw and read the verity card, so he didn't bother with announcing it. Once he saw that everyone was settled down, he reached forward and grabbed the card.

"Oh, this one is interesting," Malfoy said with a laugh. "Can you estimate how often you wank per week, and where?" he read. That would definitely one of the boy's cards, probably Syltherin. Although, I wouldn't put it past Ron.

"Blaise," he motioned to Zabini, signaling that he was to answer first.

"Is that only counting when you come?" Blaise asked rather crudely.

"Who the bloody hell wanks it and doesn't finish?" Ron responded.

"Sometimes it can be in inconvenient situations, that's all I'll say. Well, I guess that'd just be once a day. More of an average, really. Either in the shower or in bed, usually," he responded and took and venture card.

Nott smirked when he answered.

"Once a day at least, twice if I really feel like it. Normally in my bed," he said simply. He reached for a venture card.

Parkinson's cheeks looked slightly red. I could tell this was a bold question, even for her, but she answered nonetheless.

"Every other day, sometimes every day," she said confidently. "In bed or in the shower, usually, but I have... experimented with other locations, like the library." She leaned forward for a venture card.
