Y/N's POV:

The Yule ball was anounced and every girl was excited... except me.. «How can you not be excited!?» Clary shouted into my ear at dinner.

«It's very easy..» I groaned and shoved her away. «It's not that fun» I said while eating chicken wings.

«But you have a date and everything!»

«I don't want to go» I shrugged. «George can ask someone who want's to go»
«I'm fine with that. But only as dance partner of course. No friendly chatting while drinking butterbeer» I chuckled.

«You would really let him go with someone else?» Regina asked surprised.

«Absolutley. Not» I whisper yelled. «I'm only joking. If he ask's someone else, I'll have to kill her» I chuckled.

«Good» Regina said with a small laugh.

All of the Gryffindors from fourth year and up gathered in the transfiguration classroom. All the desks was moved and it was a big space in the middle «The Yule Ball has been a tradition of the Triwizard tournament since its inception on Christmas eve night. We and our guests gather in the Great Hall for a night of well mannered frivolity as representatives of the host school, I expect each and everyone of you, to put your best foot forward and I mean this literally because the Yule Ball is first and foremost a dance» Professor Mcgonagall said looking at every one of us.

Everyone started chatting, most of the girls seemed very excited that there would be dancing and the boys, me and a couple of other girls did not think it would be very fun. Dancing made all of this worse than it already was.

I'm glad I'm not going.

«Silence!» Mcgonagall called. «The house of Godric Gryffindor commanded the respect of the Wizard World for nearly 10 centuries. I will not have you in the course of a single evening besmirching that name by behaving like a babbling bumbling band of baboons» Mcgonagall contuned.

I looked in the twins direction. George smirked at me. I rolled my eyes at him before letting out a silent laugh.

«To dance is to let the body breathe....»Mcgonagall spoke and did a dance movement.

«Then I want my body to choke» I whispered to Regina.

«Don't be so dramatic» She muttered.

«Inside every girl, a secret swan slumbers longing to burst off and take flight» She said.

«Something's about to burst out of Hilary, but I don't think it's a swan» I heard Ron say. I think Mcgonagall heard it too. I could see Seamus laugh a bit. I furrowed my eyebrows in his direction.

«In every boy, a lordly lion prepared to prance. Mr. Weasley?»

«Yes....» Ron said looking up nervously at Mcgonagall.

«Will you join me please?» She asked him.

He got up from the chair and followed Mcgonagall. Harry started to laugh too. He pushed Ron slightly forward.

«Place your right hand at my waist» The Professor said.

«Where?» He said with a terrified look on his face.

«On my waist» She said calmly.

The twins whistled. «Ey» They grinned at Ron.

Ron looked at them angrily, but I thought they were very cute while teasing Ron, especially George of course.
