(bonus) The Yule Ball

Ever since the day Bright and Win started going out as boyfriends, there wasn't a day Win would panic about his dress code for the Yule Ball (he changes his dress code every day, irritating Hermoine).

"What- I won't look good in this", he showed a picture of the robes his parents had sent via owl post.

"Will. You. Stop. Doing that. Win Metawin?!" Hermoine screamed slapping the fattest book on the table with every word.

Win, Harry, and Ron shivered and looked at her, afraid she might hex them, any moment now.

"You are so disturbing, for God's sake! This was the millionth dress you are looking at!" She snapped and scrowled," even I didn't need to change my choices these many times!"

"Calm down, 'Moine", Ron patted her shoulder, only to get a glare in return.

She stood up and shot out towards her room.

"Why is she so angry?" Harry asked.

"I heard nobody asked her out for the Yule Ball", Win said, furrowing his eyebrows," poor her!"

"No wonder nobody asked her out! She's such a grumpy head", Ron muttered, rolling his eyes.

"Ron!" Harry and Win glared at him.

"Sorry, sorry!" Ron raised his hands in defeat.

"But I heard," Seamus Finnigan joined them, "Victor Krum from Durmstrang asked her out, is that true?"

"Victor Krum? You mean the Quidditch player?" Ron asked, lips parting in disbelief.

"Yeah, apparently", Seamus nodded.

Ron's face distorted in a grimace.

(A/N: in HP book 4, the Beauxbatons and Durmstrang arrive by a large carriage drawn by Abraxans for the Triwizard Tournament and later joined for the Yule Ball. As I said earlier, I'll only let the Yule Ball remain in this story and add the two schools to maintain the flow of the actual story alongside with a bit of change)

It has been a few days since the Beauxbatons and Durmstrang have arrived at their school for the Yule Ball and the students from Slytherin and Ravenclaw are asked to join Gryffindor and Hufflepuff table, respectively, for the breakfast. And no doubt, Bright sat with Win, even though Draco and his minions sat far away from Harry and his friends, to glare at them occasionally.

Win had finally chosen his dress code after a few days and his parents had sent him those via the owl post again.

Meanwhile, Harry and Ron were the last ones to find their dates for the ball which were the Patil twins, Padma and Parvati. They are contended that they will not be the left-outs this year.

The night before the Yule Ball, Win thought about Bright and how he wanted to kiss him again. The last time he had kissed was back when they confessed to each other. But that was not a proper kiss.

He is totally mesmerized by Bright's facial features, especially his cupid bow lips on which he sometimes finds himself staring at fantasizing things, like a shameless arse.

(A/N: *giggles*)

He wanted to know how would it taste like and feel like to have them fondle over his plump ones. He imagined himself in his coral pink robes that his parents have sent him for tomorrow and Bright in his Turquoise Blue robes, as he has described him, kissing under the lights, dancing in the Ball.

He smiles involuntarily at his imagination and punches his fluffy pillow multiple times to get rid of the surging butterflies in his stomach.

What the hell!
