𝕊ℙ𝔼ℂ𝕀𝔸𝕃 [Harry x reader]

-[81] Another Crush-

[Y/N POV]

We four sat in the great hall for our breakfast as two girls, one who I knew as Parvati, my roommate walked by as they said 

''Hi Harry.'' at the same time. I cringed at it as Harry turned around to stare at something. I was sitting beside him, Ron and Hermione the opposite of us.

 ''Cho, Harry's looking at you.'' someone whispered as I perked up and looked at Harry to see him staring. I rolled my eyes as I raised my eyebrows when they made eye contact. Harry spilt his pumpkin juice and it barely missed me. But my hands were drenched in the juice.

''Bloody hell Harold. Are you kidding me!'' I exclaimed as Ron passed me a tissue. Harry looked at me as I glared at him. He then looked down guiltily.

 ''Look at this! I can't believe it! She's done it again. She even wrote about you Y/N/N.'' Hermione said keeping the newspaper down as I hooked my head up to see the paper. 

''Miss Granger and Miss Snape, plain and ambitious girls, seem to be developing a taste for famous wizards. Granger's latest prey, sources report, is none other than the Bulgarian bonbon, Victor Krum. Snape's seen to have a thing for the Hogwarts heartthrob, Cedric Diggory. No wonder how Harry Potter and Y/N Snape's current boyfriend, Ron Weasley are taking this latest emotional blow.'' Hermione read out as I frowned.

 ''That Skeeter thinks that I fancy Ron? Why does everyone think that. Can't they see that we are like brother and sister? I thought Skeeter had no braincells, but looks like she has no brain!'' I exclaimed as Ron nodded. Harry shook his head in disappointment. 

''Parcel for you Mr. Weasley.'' A boy said handing a big box to Ron. 

''Ah. Thank you, Nigel.'' Ron said but the boy never left and kept staring at Harry. Hermione cleared her throat as Ron whispered to the boy.

 ''Not now, Nigel. Later. Go on.'' Hermione and I gave Ron the look.

 ''I told him I'd get him Harry's autograph.'' He said as I rolled my eyes.

''Oh look! Mum sent me something.'' He exclaimed as he took out a dress from the box.

 ''Mum sent me a dress.'' Ron whined as the Gryffindor table started giggling. 

''Well, it does match your eyes. Is there a bonnet? Aha!'' Harry said taking out the white collar. 

''Nose down Harry.'' Ron said pretty embarassed.

 ''Ginny, these must be for you.'' Ron said taking the robe over to his younger sister.

 ''I'm not wearing that. It's ghastly!'' Ginny exclaimed as Hermione and I burst out laughing. 

''What are you both on about?'' He asked coming back to us.

 ''They're not for Ginny. They're for you.'' I said as the whole table burst out laughing. 

''Dress robes.'' Hermione explained. 

''Dress robes? For what?'' Ron asked as I shook my head indicating that I din't know.

Time Skip

We all sat in a room with McGonagall and Filch. She had called all the Gryffindors to tell something. 

''The Yule Ball has been--'' McGonagall was cut off by the loud sound of the player.

 ''--the tradition of the Triwizard Tournament since it's inception.'' She concluded. ''On Chirstmas 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.''
