"THE YULE BALL.."

you raise an eyebrow,

yule ball?

".. has been a tradition of the-" filch struggles to set up the music player, "-triwizard tournament.. since its inception. on christmas 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 every one of you to put your best foot forward. and i mean this literally because.. the yule ball is, first and foremost.. a dance"

you were very lucky mcgonagall had let you do this with them instead of snape.

you and hermione glance at each other excitedly, you nudge her with a knowing smirk, "i wonder who's going to ask you"

she scoffs, "like we all don't know who's asking you"

the girls were chatting excitedly while the boys were moaning and groaning.

"silence! the house of godric gryffindor has commanded the respect of the wizard world for nearly ten centuries. i will not have you, in the course of a single evening, besmirching that name by behaving like a babbling, bumbling band of baboons"

you snort quietly.

"now, to dance.. is to let the body breathe. in every girl, a secret swan slumbers, longing to burst forth and take flight. inside every boy, a lordly lion prepared to prance. mr. weasley"

you perk up.

"yes?"

"will you join me, please?"

they both walk up, mcgonagall hold her hands out, "now, put your right hand on my waist"

"where?"

"my waist"

ron follows begrudgingly, someone whistles.

"and extend your arm" she places ron's hand on the right place.

"mr. filch, if you please" filch plays the song, it was a classic ballroom dance song.

"one, two three"

you snort slightly as ron and mcgonagall dance together.

"everybody come together"

the girls sit up, walking forward without problem while the boys stay seated.

"boys, on your feet!"

you smile at neville as he takes initiative, being the first to step up.

you were stuck dancing with some random gryffindor who didn't seem to like you an awful lot, maybe cause you're a slytherin.
