(Ophelia's POV)
Finally, the common room started to fill up with people. I was nervously waiting for the arrival of the boys.
Pansy had been convincing me that he's going to ask me. And I've been trying to convince her that he isn't.
It was almost curfew when the three boys walked into the common room. Draco and Blaise sitting on the opposite couch and Eliott, as always pulling a chair from one of the tables
"So where's this beautiful girl" I roll my eyes, trying not to sound jealous
"Let's see" he mumbles as he scans the room for her
"There" He turns back around, pointing at me
"Me?" I laugh
"Do you want to go to the ball with me?" he asks
"No" I say, his face drops immediately
"I'm kidding!" I laugh
"Yes I'll go with you" I smile
"YES!" Eliott exclaims jumping up from his chair
Pansy and Blaise were smiling at us and Eliott was jogging around the room, celebrating
Now, I realize why dresses and dress robes were on the supply list
Before the start of the year, the house-elf Mobley went and got my supplies. He came back with a beautiful dress. I literally couldn't take my eyes off of it

Today was the day, the common room was crowded with people rushing around and waiting for our dates. We had told Blaise, Draco and Juliet to wait by the Great Hall.
Eliott was helping me put the last touches on my dress
"Eliott, I think I got it" I chuckle as I take the necklace he was trying to put on me
"May I present to you! Ladies Ophelia and Pansy of the Whore House!" Eliott announces in a posh accent
"ELIOTT!" I shout
Pansy and I slowly walk down the great staircase, the boys staring at us in awe
Even as our best friends, they've never seen us dress up like this before. Finally getting to the bottom, Draco still staring at me, not speaking
"What? Does it look bad?" I ask looking down at my dress
"No, no, you just look...really good" he stutters
"Jesus, you're acting like I'm a unicorn or something" I laugh
"Is she majestic?" Eliott whispers from behind Draco
"Is she...one of a kind?" Pansy adds, whispering in Dracos other ear
"Yeah" he grins
"I-I mean...uh...oh hello" he nervously mumbles turning to Juliet
"Hello, zis must be your friends, yes?" Juliet asks Pansy
"Yeah that's Draco, Ophelia, Blaise, Daphne, Eliott and his date Mia"
"Guys, this is Juliet Rousseau" Pansy introduces her
"I have to warn you, Draco's a bit of a drama queen" she whispers
"Hey!" Draco complains
"Are you and Mr.Malfoy ready?" Professor McGonagall suddenly asks
"Ready for what?" I ask
"For the dance, it is tradition for the three champions, well in this case...five, to have the first dance" she explains
"While you six may proceed into the Great Hall" she smiles at everyone else
