part 28

"You want me to do what exactly?" Draco asked two days after the dance.

"I said I want you to fulfil your punishment," Hermione smiled putting her books down after a potions lesson.

"And I said what's the punishment?" Draco asked falling onto the bed.

"I've broken it down into different sections," Hermione smiled. "Part 1, you are to compliment Harry the whole day, Part 2, you have to wear pink!"

"You can't split it in two, you already did that!" Draco smirked.

"I can, see our verbal contract said loser does what the winner says, never did we specify that one thing cannot be subcategorised."

"Bookworm," Draco muttered.

Hermione grinned, "Well I suggest you wear something pink!"

Draco grunted. He did not want to go to breakfast and spend the whole day in pink. Nor did he want to spend the day complimenting Harry Potter. He sighed as he entered the bathroom. She said, wear pink...fine, I'll wear pink. He smirked as he dressed and when he came back into the bedroom, he was still smirking.

"Oi I said wear pink!" Hermione told him, he was in normal robes.

"I am wearing pink," Draco smiled. He rolled up his sleeve and around his wrist was a black plastic wristband with a small pink circle on it.

"I meant full pink idiot!"

"Love, you said I have to wear pink. You see you never specified."

"You think you're so cleaver, don't you?"

"Yep!"

"You still have to compliment Harry all day and you can't get out of that!"

Draco's smirk disappeared. She had got him there.

"And you have to do it, or else."

"Or else what?" Draco asked.

"You die," Hermione grinned. "We kind of made a vow."

Draco cursed under his breath.

"What was that love?" Hermione grinned.

"Nothing." Draco put on a fake smile.

Hermione smirked as she opened the bedroom door and saw Harry was in the common room. She turned to Draco, "You start now!"

Draco shuddered as he walked down the stairs, "Morning Potter."

"Morning Draco," Harry looked at him suspiciously.

"Nice jumper," Draco said, it physically pained him to say it.

"Um...thanks?" Harry offered.

"Morning Harry," Hermione smiled.

"Morning Hermione," Harry replied.

"Waiting for Ginny?" She asked.

"Yeah. She's taking forever."

"We'll wait with you," Hermione suggesting pulling Draco by the hand and making him sit down. She nudged him.

"Nice shoes Potter," Draco noticed.

"T...thanks?"

"And what about his hair?" Hermione said. "Don't you think it looks nice?"

"Yes, amazing," Draco smiled.

"Um..." Harry replied.

"Oh look here's Ginny," Hermione grinned. She was loving this.

Draco was hating this.

"Come on then breakfast," Hermione grinned.

"Morning to you to," Ginny laughed.

"Come walk with me Gin," Hermione smirked dragging Ginny in front of the guys.

"What is wrong with you?"

"Look Draco lost a bet, and his punishment is to compliment Harry all day, so play along!" Hermione whispered.

Ginny laughed, "Done."

They rejoined the boys but Draco decided this morning he would sit with the Slytherins. Hermione sighed, damn that boy! Why was he given brains...

"What are you going to do?" the student asked Bellatrix.

"Be a cute little black cat," Bellatrix smiled. "Mudbloods love felines. Unfortunately she might have to touch me."

"Disgusting!"

"I know but it is for my nephew, I have to make sacrifices."

"But before you do that, let me put my plan into mode, by the end of the day they'll be over. Please give me a chance."

"Fine, one chance. You mess up and you'll pay."

"Understood."

Hermione caught up with Draco before Charms. She grinned as she remembered, her, Draco, Blaise and Harry all sit together. She was going to have fun.

"Come on," Hermione whispered to Draco as they entered the classroom. "Compliment him!"

Theo looked at them suspiciously as Draco grunted loudly. Pansy also noticed, she was amused that Hermione was actually smirking.

Draco shivered involuntarily, "You have a sick sense of humour."

Hermione smiled, "Who do you think I get it from?"

"I wouldn't make you do something like this!"

"No you'd make me do something worse!"

They sat down at the table and waited for the other two who arrived within minutes. Before Draco could compliment Harry, Professor Flitwick started the lesson. To Draco's delight he talked for a while, but to Hermione's happiness, he asked for the rest of the lesson to be spent practising all N.E.W.T.s spells learnt so far.

"So what spell are we trying first?" Blaise asked.

"Harry choose," Hermione said.

"Um sure," Harry raised his wand. He charmed a pillow in the room to fly around the room and left it in midair before getting another pillow to fly up.

"Double Levitation," Hermione smiled. "Nice huh?" she looked at Draco.

"Yes, Potter, that spell was perfect," Draco sighed

"Thanks." Harry replied.

"And the hand movement, complete control, I wish I was half as good..." Draco started.

"Mate what are you talking about?" Blaise asked.

"Yea, you can levitate about five of them pillows at the same time, if not more," Harry raised an eyebrow.

"Oh yea," Draco replied. "But it was still good."

"You and Hermione changed bodies?" Blaise asked.

"No, I can be nice," Draco smiled.

The other three all laughed.

"What?" Draco asked, confused.
