It had been a couple days since the incident with the twins happened. I still don't have any news on Harry, and honestly I'm kind of worried at this point. Once you're picked there's no backing out, and you're supposed to be 17 to get in, it's still unknown how Harry's name got in there. Maybe he put it himself but is acting like he has no idea, I don't know yet, but it's what the whole school is saying behind his back. Honestly I feel sorry for him.
"Look there he is"
"He's pathetic"
People were whispering things once they spotted Harry walking into the Great Hall. I was eating while Susan was lost looking at her food, thinking about something. Ginny's expression changed once she heard them say that about Harry.
"Stupid boy-"
"What was that?" Ginny raised her voice at the two hufflepuffs sitting across from her, they stared at her in fear.
"Ginny calm down." Susan whispered, Ginny sat back down while giving them death stares.
I let out a small laugh while Susan smiled.
"Anyways about the dresses," Ginny acted as if that didn't just happen.
"Yeah I was wondering about them." Susan said, resting her chin on her palm.
"They're ready, mum's going to send it and our owls will be here soon." She said.
"YES!" Susan accidentally screamed, everyone chatting stopped and turned to look at us. I was already pissed at everyone talking rubbish about Harry.
"What?" I said with sarcasm, they quickly went back to minding their business. Stubborn and ignorant people is what they all are, try surviving one of the most dangerous wizards of all time, then talk.
Ron suddenly came up to the hufflepuff table with what looked like dress robes, "Ginny, these must be for you." He said.
"I'm not wearing that it's ghastly." She said stirring her soup while looking at Ron. A giggle from the Gryffindor table catched my attention, Hermione was laughing at Ron. He quickly went back and asked her what was so funny.
"They're not for ginny, they're for you!" She said, everyone at the gryffindor table laughed, Fred's deep laugh was really noticeable. I turned to look at him, he looked back while the smile was still on his face, it faded once his eyes met mine. We locked eyes until I finally broke it, looking at Susan who was looking at someone. I turned in the direction that she was looking at, Cedric Diggory.
"You really fancy him don't you?" I said, she quickly looked back at me with a guilty look.
"If you like him then I can just pick another guy-"
"No no no, I don't fancy Cedric. And even if I did, you have more than the right to fancy him." I assure her, she gives me a warm smile and continues her staring at him.
Before I know it a white box with my name on it is on front of me, same with Susan, distracting her.
"They're here." Ginny says. I try to open the box but both Susan and Ginny stop me, "We're going to open them in private." They whispered. I nodded and we all got up, running to the common room.
・・・
Ginny sat down on her bed while Susan and I placed the large white boxes on our bed.
"Ok, I go first." Susan opened her box, gasping once she saw her dress. It was long navy blue dress with a v neck, she quickly picked it up and rushed to the corner of the room, trying it on. Ginny and I waited for about 5 minutes until she finally revealed herself, the dress looked beautiful on her, just like she wanted it.

We observed her dress as our eyes widened, she looked beautiful. I got up and sighed, opening my box. My breath stopped once I saw how the dress looked. It was long, and light blue, I told Ginny any dress that Molly made would be nice, it wouldn't matter. I picked the dress up and stared at it in shock, it was then I could ask for.
"Well then, go try it on!" Susan encouraged me, I quickly started changing. Susan and Ginny talked about Molly and other stuff I didn't get to hear because I was too caught up in my thoughts. Once I had finished I showed them it, both of their jaws dropped.

I didn't know how much time Molly spent making this dress but I was more than grateful.
Ginny ended up trying her dress and all three of us spent the rest of the afternoon practicing how we were going to dance all together.
・・・
I was reading alone in the gryffindor common room, Ginny was sleeping on the floor exhausted from dancing. And susan was taking a bath, she likes being clean and organized all the time. One of my favorite books of all time, Pride and Prejudice. It's quite interesting and different from other novels I've read.
"This is for you." A first year gryffindor gave me a note, it was folded into a heart. As I opened it, I noticed what it said,
𝓌𝒾𝓁𝓁 𝓎𝑜𝓊 𝒸𝑜𝓂𝑒 𝓉𝑜 𝓉𝒽𝑒 𝓎𝓊𝓁𝑒 𝒷𝒶𝓁𝓁 𝓌𝒾𝓉𝒽 𝓂𝑒?

A/N:
