In your Dreams (G.W.)

Their Usual Place

The bathroom stalls were full. Y/N sat with her make up done and waited for her roommates to get out so that she could do her hair. "C'mon Lizzy ,get out! Jonas is not interested anyway to see you dressed" shouted Augusta as she banged a bathroom. Y/N laughed. "So! George Weasley, han!" Augusta plopped on Y/N's bed bumping her shoulder. Y/N was never that close to her three roommates, Augusta , Elizabeth and Neena , but they maintained cordial relationships with each other nonetheless. "And in that dress? He is going down on you ,today " joked Augusta. "Oh shut up!, Gissy" Y/N blushed bad and smacked Augusta's arm. "Are you two coming out ,this evening?" shouted Augusta . Y/N finally got into a bathroom stall after Neena had ran out of it to search for her hair softening potion frantically. She shut the door and took off the bathrobe and examined herself. She suddenly felt a pang in her chest. Her textured skin, stretch marks, bulging stomach made her reconsider everything. He is going to hate me. He is going to  loathe me. I cannot go to the ball. 

She sat down on the floor, tears falling from her eyes. There was a knock at the bathroom door. "Y/N? Are you in there?" came Fiona's voice. "Hey! Open up! and show us your pretty face" chirped Al. They heard sniffing as Y/N stood up and put her bathrobes back on and opened the door. "Hey! what's wrong?" said Fiona as she and Al entered the stall and closed the door. "What if , he loathes me? What-what if he changes his mind ? I am not pretty, I am not athletic. Who am I kidding?" she put her face in her palms. "Hey! where is all this coming from?" said Fiona as she pulled Y/N's chin up with her fingers. "You listen to me, Y/L/N. You are the most beautiful, intelligent and kindest person I have ever seen .The fiercest and most loyal friend that any of us could've ever dreamt of befriending. So , you will put yourself in that gorgeous dress and make everyone gape at you. Okay?" said Fiona seriously ,making Y/N laugh. "If it is of any consolation to you, George Weasley hasn't shut up about you, since that day. He stops everyone in the common room and gloats about how you said yes and how he cannot stop thinking about spending the whole evening with you. Honestly,it is becoming annoying" shrugged Alfea . All of them laughed out loud and Y/N hugged them both. "Thank you . I love you all so much" she said. "Then let's get you tidied up to blow George Weasley away" winked  Al. "Evanesco" said Fiona tapping her wand on the blotched Mascara on Y/N's skin. They helped her to style her hair up in a bun . She closed the door behind her as she got out of her robes once more,but put on her dress this time.

"Are you ready?" chirped Fiona with excitement. "Yes" came Y/N's muffled voice. "Come out, come out!!" Al was practically jumping. There was a click and the door to the stall opened. "Merlin's Beard, Y/L/N. What the hell?" Al looked at Y/N with wide eyes. "Oh!! you look so pretty" Fiona hugged her. "You two look gorgeous yourselves" said Y/N pulling Alfea into the hug."Let's go ! The others are waiting" said Al as all of them made their way to the stairs. Penny,Val, George,Cedric ,Cho, Marc and Lee waited for them by the kitchens. Marc nudged Cedric as the three girls made their way towards them. "Blimey Y/N , if I knew you would look this good, I would've taken you instead" said Cedric planting a kiss on her forehead. "Who said I would have said Yes" teased Y/N making Cedric chuckle. 

George's Pov

Merlin! I am never going to recover from this. She is coming towards me. She is here.Say something ,George. Don't stare . She'll think you are stupid.

"Earth to George" Y/N snapped her fingers . "Erm....um.... WOW!" was all that George managed to say. Y/N chuckled. "Has someone put a curse on you, Weasley?" "You!" he said. He took out a bouquet of lavenders and handed to Y/N and planted a kiss on her cheek. "Reminds me of you" said George making Y/N's heart flutter. "Can we take some pictures now? You got the camera Y/N, hurry up with that cheese" Val said impatiently. Y/N took out a muggle camera from her purse on which she had put an extendable charm and handed it to George. Lee was ready with his Wizard one. "Just press this button,right here ,okay?" she showed George and he nodded. The gang posed first together. All of them laughing and holding on to each other. Then everyone took turns to pose with their dates. Cedric and Y/N had bunch of their pictures taken. All the girls posed together, then the boys. After what felt like an hour and millions of permutations and combinations of people posing, the photo session finally ended. "Shall we?" George said offering his arm. Y/N interlocked hers and all of them walked towards the Great Hall.

Everyone was dressed their best. The Great Hall looked like a silvery Christmas heaven. The Champions entered the Hall as everyone clapped. Fleur was with Roger Davies ,the Ravenclaw Quidditch Captain, Viktor Krum  had Hermione Granger by his side. Y/N waved at Granger with a large grin and she nodded back at her enthusiastically. Cedric and Cho entered after them as Val wolf whistled and Marc shouted, "Get it,Dickory". Compared to all the happy and grinning faces, Harry and Parvati sure did look uncomfortable. According to the tradition the Champions were to have the first dance. The music started playing as the four pair started to sway. Professor Mcgonagall and Dumbledore joined them shortly followed by Neville and Ginny. Everyone started to get up on the dance floor after that. After Fred and Angelina went up ,George stretched his hand towards Y/N, "May I have this dance,love". Y/N nodded taking his hand. They swayed and twirled to the music. Both of them were giddy and were laughing uncontrollably.

After like an hour of dancing , most of the students were scattered here and there. Y/N , George,Fred, Angelina and the gang with their dates sat around a table. Y/N took this opportunity to stealthily pull out her wand from her purse and give it a wave. The music suddenly stopped playing. Everyone started booing and chattering. A tune started to play shortly after. Some students cheered and practically ran to the dance floor and the others looked at them with confusion. Y/N stood up from her chair and joined all the students in the dance floor. "What is that song and why are all the muggleborns doing the same thing that to in sync?" said Marc confused looking at the students dancing . "I know what that is! That's the Macarena song. And I am not even surprised " said Cedric nodding . "What is a Macarena song?" asked Cho as the whole crowd on the dance floor went "AYY MACARENA" *CLAP*. "That is Macarena" said Cedric. "It is this famous muggle song, that everyone of them seems to know the exact steps to" said Cedric. Y/N came to the table and dragged everyone to the dance floor. All of them tried to imitate her , failing initially but getting the hang of it eventually. 

"Wanna get out of here?" George asked Y/N panting. She nodded. "But where to?" "Our usual place" George said as he grabbed her hand and intertwined his fingers as they both ran out of the Great Hall.
