Narcissa, Draco, and all of his friends were planning the date for Draco and Ophelia. Hermione and Ginny were in charge of planning the entire thing in terms of where the date would be, the time of the date, and what would be provided as the meal and dessert. Narcissa was in charge of getting Ophelia ready for the date. In order to help with the meal, Zinzsy said that she could help Molly make something. Harry, Ron, and Blaise were in charge of just setting the table and bringing out the food on platters. They were essentially waiters.

They were also Draco's hype men.

The boys were in charge of keeping Draco calm and collected during the whole ordeal. Draco has been a nervous mess ever since he bought the ring a few days ago. And he's been relying on the boys in his life to help keep him collected.

"You got this man. She won't say no. You're gonna go in there, you're going to make it the best date of her entire life, and she's going to say yes. You got this, mate," Blaise and Harry were currently encouraging Draco. He was about to go inside the Zabini manor when Blaise and Harry patted Draco on his back. He cleared his throat and walked inside. Draco was about to walk inside when Harry stopped him.

"Oh, really quick, drink this," He handed him a small vile filled with a clear liquid. Draco chuckled and took it.

"What's that?" Blaise questions but Draco answered by chugging the liquid. Draco smiled wide and handed back the vile.

"Liquid Luck," With that, Draco left the two. Blaise chuckled and the two boys waited for Draco to come back.

As Draco walked into the house, he saw Ophelia talking to her mother. Ophelia noticed him and smiled and ran up to him. Draco picked up his love and spun her around. Ophelia laughed as he put her down.

"Ophelia, I have a question to ask you," Draco was very confident and was thankful that Harry gave him liquid luck.

"What is it, love?" Ophelia smiled at Draco, never seeing him so confident about something.

"I would like to take you out on a date tonight. Would you like to go on a date with me tonight?" Ophelia vigorously nodded her head yes and Draco beamed the biggest smile he could muster.

"Great! I'll pick you up at eight!" Draco kissed Ophelia softly, but she could feel the passion he sent her way. As Draco was walking away he turned around and called back out to her.

"Wear something fancy!" Ophelia swayed a bit but caught herself. She was still dazed by that kiss they shared. Ophelia managed to send a nod toward Draco and faced her mother once again. Ophelia's mother smiled at her as Ophelia squealed with joy. The two women were overjoyed and immediately went looking for outfits that Ophelia could wear.

Draco walked back outside to his friends and smiled like an idiot. The two boys knew she would have said yes whether he had drunk the liquid luck or not, but since Draco was more confident, it really helped them out, and he was out of the manor in record time.

"Alright mate, let's get you something to wear. You'll also need to get her flowers because that's what you get women for dates." Draco nodded and the boys went about their day helping Draco get ready. He had decided to wear a simple black suit with a silver tie.

Ophelia on the other hand was having a hard time figuring out what to wear. She didn't know if she wanted a new dress or if she wanted to wear something she already had.

"Hermione? Would you be able to ask Draco what tie he is going to be wearing? I think matching with him will help me choose which dress to wear." Ophelia asks from within her closet. She was excited that her love asked her on a date. She thought it was a refreshing idea after everything that has gone on.

"Yeah! I'll be back soon." Hermione apparated to Harry and Draco. They were playing cards with Ronald, Blaise, and Theo. The boys looked up and smiled at her.

"Hey 'Mione! Want to play with us?" Hermione knew something was different and the boys groaned.

"Liquid luck," Harry mumbled. Hermione laughed and shook her head.

"Well, at least he'll have confidence. Anyway, I was wondering what color tie you'd be wearing tonight. Ophelia is having a hard time deciding on what to wear and thought she'd match with the color of your tie."

"It's silver," Hermione smiled at Dravo's answer.

"Brilliant. Thanks! Let me know if you guys need me." The boys agreed as they called out their goodbyes as Hermione apparated away. Hermione was now back in the Zabini Manor and Ginny, Misses Zabini, and Ophelia looked at her.

"Well?" Ophelia was slightly panicking already and was worried she wouldn't be able to find anything.

"Silver," Ophelia groaned at her friend's answer and plopped onto her bed face first. She mumbled into her sheets that she didn't have an all silver dress. Zinzsy had come into the room a few minutes prior to Hermione getting back, and she had an idea.

"Miss Ophelia, Zinzsy has an idea," Zinzsy smiled when Ophelia sat up to look at her elf.

"What would that be?" Ophelia was confused as Zinzsy pulled her up from her bed and put her in the middle of the room. Zinzsy then snapped her fingers and a dress started to appear on Ophelia's body. She was already in her undergarments as she kept trying on dresses to see what she would like for the evening.

The dress was short in the front and long in the back. The bodice was covered in silver sequins, while the bottom part was just a light grey. Ophelia looked into the mirror and she smiled as she twirled. She then squealed in excitement and hugged Zinzsy.

"It's perfect! Thank you Zinzsy!" Ophelia couldn't stop smiling.

"Now all I need to do is worry about shoes," Ophelia smiled and Zinzsh snapped her fingers again. A pair of light grey flats appeared on her and Ophelia hugged Zinzsy once again.

"Okay, now we just need to do your hair and make-up, then you'll be ready for your date!" Misses Zabini was excited for Ophelia. She also thought it would be good for the two of them to be able to act like a normal couple after the past couple of months.

Ophelia quickly took off her dress and shoes and decided to shower before putting everything back on. After her shower, her mother started to work on her hair. After she had curled Ophelia's hair and pinned some of it up, Hermione helped Ophelia into her dress, and Ginny helped her into her shoes.

"Alright, I'm going to make sure that Draco is ready for tonight. I'll be right back!" Hermione called out and apparated back to Harry. She saw Draco was fixing his tie and he gave her a tight-lipped smile.

"Oh no, the liquid luck wore off, didn't it?" Draco let out an airy chuckle.

"Oh, it wore off about an hour ago. And now I am a nervous wreck! Harry, are you sure you don't have another bottle?" Draco pleaded in Harry's direction and Harry groaned.

"For the last time Draco, no! I do not have anymore!" Harry was beginning to become irritated by Draco's behavior. He knew he should have moved the time of the date up instead of later. Liquid luck doesn't last that long and he knew that, yet still gave it to Draco earlier in the day.

"Draco, listen to me. Your girlfriend is waiting for you in a beautiful dress. If you back out now, who knows how upset she will be. She was beyond excited to go on a proper date with you, you can not let her down now!" Hermione was starting to raise her voice and Draco stood still. He has only faced Hermione's fury once, he really does not want to go through it again.

"Now, you are going to make sure you have everything, get the ring from your mother, and have the best night of your life and propose to one of my best friends. We did not go through all of the trouble of creating a date and making all of the plans for you, just for you to throw it down the drain by panicking!" Hermione screamed at the boy and Draco had turned white as a ghost. He was facing her fury again and Hermione was trying to catch her breath. Ron slowly made his way over to her and pulled her into a hug. He kissed her forehead and Hermione gave him a small smile. She sighed and looked back at Draco and noticed he was putting the ring into his pants pocket. Draco gulped and rubbed the back of his neck.

"Now, are you ready?" Draco let out a nervous chuckle and nodded.

"Good, I'm going to go back to Ophelia. You meet us in the Manor's parlor in five minutes. Got it?" Draco nodded and Hermione went back to Ophelia. She had just gotten done with her hair and was waiting for Draco to arrive. Hermione told her he would be there in five minutes and that he would meet her in the parlor. As the women waited in the parlor for the boys to apparate in, Ophelia was having jitters about the date. She had a weird feeling about the date as if she knew that something was going to happen. It wasn't a bad feeling, however, but she still thought something was going to happen.

A couple of moments later, the boys apparated into the parlor of the Zabini Manor. Ophelia heard them come in and she got even more nervous. She was instantly questioning herself. Wondering if Draco would like her outfit, her hair, her makeup. She felt very self-conscious, but she was confused. She never felt this way around Draco. She heard her friends and family talking in the parlor and she let out a breath to get herself ready. Misses Zabini came into the room that Ophelia was in and gave her a kiss on her forehead. She quickly whispered words of encouragement and walked Ophelia out into the parlor.

Draco was at a loss for words when his eyes fell on Ophelia. His love looked so beautiful for the evening, and it made him even more nervous about what he was planning on doing. Ophelia made her way over to her love and they stood awkwardly. Hermione gave her friends a look before she muttered to herself.

"Oh, Merlin. This is going to be a long night,"
