Chapter 5
Ginny’s heart was pounding with anticipation. She had no idea what she was going to have to do, and she wasn’t sure if she wanted to.
Pansy continued, “There is a book in the restricted section. It is on the bottom shelf to the left. It’s yellow and silver, the name isn’t there. Look in the back cover, and you will find a note. Follow the instructions on it.
As one, all five girls got up and left Ginny sitting there.
“But wait, how am I supposed to get in the restricted section?”
Pansy smiled rather eerily and said, “That’s not our problem.”
Ginny nodded. Well, might as well start trying now.
~*~*~*~*~
Blaise was watching Ginny. He had heard every word of what she would have to do, and he knew she had no connections to do it. But I do. Blaise watched as she sat there. Gods, she is hot.
Just then Ginny got up and began to walk out of the Great Hall. Blaise stood up and followed her.
*~*~*~*~
as soon as Ginny walked out of the doors, she felt a hand grab her.
“Hey there. Where are you off too,” Blaise said.
“Um, do I know you?”
“No, I don’t think so, but you need to.”
“What is that supposed to mean?”
“I know what you need, and I’ve got a way to get it.”
“I’m not sure I follow you. What is your name?”
“I’m Blaise, and I know you need to get into the restricted section of the library. Can you do that?”
“honestly I don’t think so, but what does that have to do with you?”
“I can get into the restricted section and get that note for you.”
“Oh, you can?”
“Yep.”
“What’s the catch?”
“well, I was kind of hoping that you would come with me to the ball this Halloween.”
“There’s a ball this Halloween?”
“Yeah, I told you I have connections with the staff here.”
“Okay, you get my note; I’ll go with you to the ball.”
“And you’ll wear what I get you.”
“Wait, that wasn’t part of the deal!”
“It is now.”
And with that, Blaise smiled, kissed her on the cheek, and walked away.
~*~*~*~*~
Blaise ran up to the Head Boy’s statue, said the password, and walked in.
“Draco, where are you? I’ve got awesome news!”
Draco came out of the bathroom.
“What is it this time Blaise?”
“Ginny is going with me to that ball on Halloween.”
“and what exactly are you doing for her?”
“What makes you think I didn’t just ask her and she said yes?”
Draco just stared at him. He knew his best friend well.
“Okay, fine. She has to get this note out of a book in the restricted section of the library. She has to do whatever is on the note to get in that group. I told her I’d get the note if she would go to the ball with me.”
“And also wear what you get her, right?”
Blaise smiled mischievously. “Yeah, how’d you know?”
Draco just shook his said and began gathering his books.
“Draco, you’re going to owe me ten galleons!”
“I doubt that.”
“Why do you say that?”
“You aren’t going to get her to sleep with you, Blaise.”
“Why?”
“She’s just not that easy.”
“Are you sure?”
“She’s a Weasley, of course I’m sure.”
“So what, are you an experts on Weasleys all of the sudden?”
Draco shrugged his shoulders, “Whatever Blaise. I have to get to class.”
