"The Yule Ball"
-THE WEEKS ALL PASSED BY IN A BLUR AND IT WAS NOW YULE, OR MORE IMPORTANTLY, THE DAY OF THE YULE BALL. Adhara stepped out of the bathroom and walked into her dorm, making Pansy suck in a sharp breath at how hot she looked. "Goddamn." Pansy said, "You look fucking hot."
"Thanks, Pans." Adhara said, brushing her hair. "You look wonderful."
Pansy smiled as she did a twirl in her pink dress. "Thank you. Are we ready to go?" She asked. The two had decided to go to the ball together as friends, since they didn't want anybody else.
"Yes. Just give me a moment."
Adhara walked into the great hall with Pansy, both of them looking at the decorations in awe. They were snapped out of their thoughts when the great hall's doors opened and in came the champions with their dates.
"Is Granger with..Viktor Krum?" Pansy asked in shock.
Adhara jaw clenched and so did her fists. "Hey." Pansy immediately soothed, "I know a solution. Let's make her jealous."
Adhara didn't look away from the couple dancing as she asked, "How?"
Pansy chuckled as she leaned on her shoulder. "We both know how, Ara."
She frowned slightly and looked at her. "Are you sure?"
Her bestfriend gave her a look. "I'm your bestfriend." Pansy pointed out. "Of course I'm sure."
"Fucking kiss already!" Draco exclaimed as he walked over, Harry next to him.
The two girls glared at him, making him gulp. "I've never seen you look any gayer, Addie." Harry joked, looking at her suit in awe.
Adhara smirked. "I'll come in here tomorrow looking like a fucking rainbow, how about that Potter?"
"She's watching. Kiss me." Pansy said, making Adhara's breath get caught in her throat.
"What- Pansy-"
"Kiss me. What better way to make her jealous?"
"Are you sure?"
"Positive."
Adhara looked at her for a few seconds before leaning in, capturing their lips into a kiss for a few seconds. When she pulled away, she noticed Hermione leaving the hall, making her smirk.
"Go get her, Ara." Pansy said, putting on a fake smile, hoping she wouldn't notice.
"Thanks, Pans." Adhara mumbled as she rushed away, not noticing her sad eyes on her the entire time.
"Had fun with Viktor?" Adhara asked bitterly, emphasizing his name.
Hermione, who was walking away, turned around. "What's got your wand in a knot?"
"Oh, I dunno." She replied sarcastically, her hands in her pockets. "Maybe because he's using you."
Hermione looked outraged, "How dare you! Besides, we just came as friends."
"I think it's obvious that he's got way more than friendship on his mind."
"Says you who was kissing her bestfriend all of a sudden."
Adhara's jaw clenched. "Atleast I'm not letting anybody use me."
"What?! That's what you think?"
"Yeah, that's what I think." She replied, walking up the stairs, Hermione not too far behind her.
"Well, you know the solution then don't you?!"
"Go on."
"Next time there's a ball, pluck up the courage and ask me before somebody else does!" Hermione snapped, making Adhara frown.
"How was I supposed to ask when you've been ignoring me?!"
"Well, why would you kiss somebody else!"
"I was fucking drunk!" Adhara blurted out. "You wouldn't even let me explain."
"Well it's a bit too late for that." Hermione snapped back, but was ignored.
Adhara looked behind her, making her turn around. Harry looked between them. "The sexual tension between you guys almost suffocated everyone in the great hall, just kiss already." He joked, trying to lighten up the situation, but was immediately ignored.
"You know he's way too old, right?" Adhara pointed out, turning away from him and looking at Hermione.
Hermione opened and closed her mouth a few times. "Like I said, we're here just as friends!"
Adhara rolled her eyes in disbelief. "Oh, sure." She said sarcastically and walked away.
"What's her problem?" Hermione asked, looking at the spot Adhara was at a few moments ago.
Harry face-palmed. "She fucking likes you. Why am I always the bloody third wheel?!"
Hermione didn't hear him as she was too busy sitting on the stairs and started crying, which made Harry immediately rush over to her.
