Voldemort smiled at Astoria, and at his side, Bellatrix gave her the indulgent look of a mentor admiring her work. Hermione's arm itched. Astoria sashayed around the table towards Malfoy. At the last moment, he shoved his chair back and stood, almost knocking Hermione over. Bellatrix was the only one to notice, smiling smugly. Malfoy bent to kiss Astoria on the cheek, but she reached up with her velvet-covered hands and pulled him to her mouth. Cheers and whistles came from the seated crowd as she prolonged the kiss.
