❝That's the most beautiful way a girl could get asked for the ball!❞
────⍣☆☾☼✧☼☽☆⍣────
"Who are you asking to the ball, Harry?"
"What?" said Harry, suddenly looking really nervous. "Oh, me? Um- uh, Cho Chang."
Oh.
Hermione let out a loud gasp but covered it up quickly with a cough. Even Ron looked at Harry with wide eyes.
Y/N felt like someone had just stabbed her heart with the sword of Gryffindor, but she quickly pushed it away and turned to Hermione, whose eyes were so wide it looked like they might fall out any second.
"What did he say?"
"Cho, Harmonica, he's going ask Cho-"
"Well, he can't do that!"
"He actually can-"
"No! He can't go with Cho!"
"Why not?"
"Because he should go with yo-"
"Uh- are you both alright?" Ron asked, looking at Y/N and Hermione with a weird look on his face.
"What?" They turned to him.
"No- it's just- you two were just staring at each other...making strange faces-"
"Never you mind," Hermione said sternly as she got up and grabbed Y/N's hand. "We're going to bed."
"Damn, Harmonica, at least take me out to dinner first-" Y/N teased as Hermione pulled her into the girls' dormitories.
"Oh, Y/N," Hermione turned to Y/N with a somber expression as soon as she closed the door. "I know you were waiting for Harry to ask you-"
"Excuse me?" Y/N interrupted. "I was waiting for him to ask me?" She gave a small chuckle. "Harmonica, I don't wait for anyone, especially not for boys. I didn't reject all those guys because I was waiting for Harry to ask me."
"But then-"
"I wasn't waiting for him to ask me, Harmonica, I was hoping. There's a big difference."
"And what's that?"
"I was just hoping Harry would ask me, but that doesn't mean I wouldn't say yes to another guy I like," said Y/N. "That's the difference. I mean, I was actually going to say yes to Blaise before my annoying arse of a brother messed it up."
"And now he's going to ask Cho..." said Hermione gloomily.
"Yep," Y/N shrugged. "But hey, I can just take myself to the ball, who needs boys anyway?" She said with a grin as Hermione chuckled.
