"Y/n blue or pink hair pins?" Hermione said in a fluster.

"You look lovely Mione but I'd say blue to match youre dress" She awnsered with a smile.

"Y/n are you nearly ready? I want to see you're dress!" Parvati called.

Y/n stood in front of the bathroom mirror "ill be out in a minute" she called. She ran the back of her hands down the length of her body. She had decided on a tight, satin floor length dress with a high slit that went just above her thigh. She carefully adjusted the spaghetti straps so that the dress lifted her cleavage comfortably. She had tamed her hair so that it sat beautifully in organised but loose flowing curls. Her makeup consists of a subtle and sultry eye look but a bold red lipstick which popped immaculately in comparison to her black gown.

"Wow" Parvati and Hermione spoke in what was almost a whisper as Y/n came out the bathroom.

"Do I look okay?" She asked timidly.

"You look beautiful" Hermione said excitedly.

"I don't know who you're going with but I know you're planning something big. So do it with confidence, you look amazing." Parvati said as she lifted y/ns chin up slightly.

"Our dates are waiting in the common room, do you mind if we get going? We can wait if you want."

"Its fine Mione thanks though. I've just got to get my shoes on and I'll be down in a moment" y/n smiled.

Her friends left the dormitory and she sat on the bed as she began doing up her simple black heels, she had painted her toenails and fingernails a bright red to match her lipstick.
She got up and stood infront of the mirror once again.
"Do it with confidence" she whispered to her reflection.
"Youve got this" she continued talking to herself.

Fred and George were waiting together at the entrance to the grand Hall. Fred was nearly jumping in excitement to see Angelina. But Georges mind was else where.

"Do you think she'll come?" George asked.

"Who y/n?" Fred said rasing an eyebrow.

"Yeah. Like do you think she's acctually going to come. I never heard her say who her date was so what if she doesn't have one" George began.

"Dont flatter yourself mate, she could get any boy she wants, or girl for that matter. Youre an idiot and you should of just kissed her when you guys were studying the other day... or when you were sharing a bed for that matter!" Fred cried.

"Whos sharing a bed with who?" Alicia spoke suddenly.

"Oh hi girls" Fred and George spoke.

"Merlin youre beautiful" Fred said taking Angelinas arm.

George cleared his throat "you urm you look good" he complimented Alicia.

"Thanks Georgie" she simpered.

"Do you know if y/ns coming, is she allright?" George asked.

"Heard her saying she found a date, and yeah she's upstairs getting ready" she awnsered with a roll of her eyes.

"Bloody hell is that y/n? Look Harry" Ron said smacking his arm.

George over heard and spun his head round quickly to look up the grand staircase where he smiled uncontrollably at the sight of y/n walking down.

"You'll catch flies Georgie" Lee joked when he noticed the boys jaw hung open.

Everybody stood outside the hall turnt to look at who was coming in next and George heard many mutters of compliments and a few wolf whistles aimed at y/n. Even Ron had gone slightly red in the face.

Allthough a nervous reck on the inside, she wanted to come across as a confident, baddass woman. So she walked down the grand stairway with her chin held high and she swayed her hips rhythmically. She noticed George staring at her wide eyed and Alicia trying her best to stand in front of him and block his veiw. This caused y/n to internally grin, but she didn't show it, she didn't want to give George the pleasure of knowing she'd rather be attending with him.

George was now frantically peering around the surroundings trying to figure out who her date was.

Y/n reached the bottom of the stairway and gave a small smile to someone across the room. Theodore Nott strode confidently through the crowd of people until he was stood in front of y/n. His date. He wore a matching black suit to y/ns dress, and looked emmensley handsome. He put out an arm for her "Reverie" he said cooly while shooting her a subtle wink.
"Nott" she nodded back and took his arm. She noticed he'd complimented his outfit with several silver rings.
The two made their way through the crowd of shocked people. A slytherin and a Gryffindor, as dates. It was un heard of. And not to mention that the pair made an extraordinarily good looking couple.
"You look beautiful" he whispered "and Weasley couldn't keep his eyes off you."
"You look really good too. Very handsome." She whispered back "and allthough you won't admit it, I'm sure you'll be happy to hear that pansy was absolutely drooling over you."

Arm in arm they made their way past everyone. Y/n caught eyes with Hermione who was linked arms with Viktor Krum. With out their dates noticing they both silently made oh my God you go girl faces to eachother.

"Miss Reverie, Mr Nott, you both look lovely" Mcgonagal greeted as they entered the beautifully decorated hall, the tone of surprise in the proffesors voice was evident. Most likely because she had been the one to escort y/n to madam pomfrey last year when Theodore cursed her.

"She brought Nott!" George cried.

"Well fuck me, so she did" Fred laughed "I'm impressed, good for her"

"What do you mean good for her, they hate eachother." George exclaimed barely containing his hurt.

"Probably makes for good sex though doesn't it. If they hate eachother i bet thats hot" Fred said with a shrug of his shoulders. Earning him a playful smack from Angelina "anyway you can't expect her to hang around all day for you"

"What do you mean hang around for you?" Alicia scolded furiously. George said nothing, it was no use pretending he cared for Alicia half as much as he cared for y/n, he couldn't do it anymore. "Fine" Alicia cried "i see how it is... fuck you George weasley..fuck you" Alicia left in tears.

"Oh. Sorry George I just thought.. well I thought you might like y/n and I kinda forgot Alicia was here and-" Fred began sincerely.

"Hey don't worry about it" George said placing his hand on his twins shoulder. "It needed to happen sometime. I'm an idiot aren't I"

"Total idiot" Fred and Angelina awnsered in unison.
