When Zabini approached her with a huge grin on his face she had simply laughed and told him to hide from Draco the rest of the day if he found out. The next day she spotted Zabini walking a bit stranger than usual, but he still smirked and winked at her on his way past the Gryffindor table in the Great Hall. Zabini turned his attention back to his Ravenclaw as he had started to call her. Hermione suspected Charlotte didn't mind as much as she let on when she eventually accepted to be Zabini's date after he lamented about the pains in his leg from having to chase her so much. Hermione was quite certain she had spotted a very pleased smile on Charlotte that morning as she left after breakfast.
