"What are those? What are those?" Ron as we came in in our dress robes

"Our dress robes," I said.

"Well, they're all right! No lace. No dodgy little collar," Ron said.

"Well, l expect yours are more traditional," Harry said to try and make Ron feel better.

"Traditional?! They're ancient! I look like my Great Aunt Tessie! I smell like my Great Aunt Tessie. Murder me, Harry," Ron said after giving himself a sniff and looking in the mirror.

"Leave it alone!" I said to Ron as we went down as he kept fiddling with his tie.

"Poor kid. I bet she's alone in her room, crying her eyes out," Ron said.

"Who?" I asked.

"Hermione, of course. Come on, Y/N, why do you think she wouldn't tell us who she's coming with?" Ron said.

"Because we'd take the mickey out of her if she did," Harry said answering for me.

"Nobody asked her. Would've taken her myself if she wasn't so bloody proud," Ron said.

"Hello, boys. Don't you look... dashing," Said the Patil twins after seeing Ron's outfit.

"Hang on Y/N wheres your date?" Parvati said.

"Final touches," I said smugly.

"There you are, Potter L/N. Are you ready?" McGonagall said as she came over.

"Ready, professor?" Harry said.

"To dance. lt's traditional that the three champions--Well, in this case, four. Are the first to dance. Surely l told you that," McGonagall said.

"No," We both said.

"Well, now you know. As for you, Mr. Weasley, you may proceed into the Great Hall with Miss Patil. Oh, there you are. Come on, then. Come along this way. Oh, come on. Now, l need you all to line up in the procession, please. Oh, you are very late. This way. This way. Come along," McGonagall said as she ushered other kids into the hall.

"She looks beautiful!" Parvati said and turned to see Hermione.

"Yeah, she does," Harry said before realising what we were looking at.

I smiled at her the dress truly was stunning on her and it fit her perfectly I stood as she descended the steps waiting for her. I smiled when she reached me at the bottom of the stairs I offered her my hand with a slight bow and smiled blushing red as she took it. As the two of us made our way into the great hall us being 3rd in line we saw everyone cheering and a few people surprised to see me with Hermione. Once we had taken our place on the dance floor the music began and we were all dancing in time with each other and soon after others joined the floor.

"You look beautiful by the way," I said to Hermione as we danced.

"You're not looking too bad yourself," Hermione said.

"I aim to please my princess," I said.

"I'm not really a princess," Hermione said. 

"You are mine," I said.

Soon the music had completely changed it was a hardcore rock band and I was dancing with Hermione off to the side near the back. Once we were both out of breath I kissed her hand and said I would get us some drinks as I walked off to the bar. I grabbed us each a drink that according to the one serving drinks was meant to give you energy so seemed to be fitting. As I made my way back to my girl I saw her arguing with Ron as when she saw me she took the drinks and threw the liquid at Ron before dragging me off.

"What was that about," I said as Hermione placed the glasses down.

Hermione didn't answer and I was getting really curious about it I was about to ask again when we stopped by the doors out but she stopped me by kissing me. I was pushed into the wall so we were hidden by the door as we kissed and I was having a great time. The two of us spent a lot of that night very close and even went back to the dance floor for a slow song before we headed off to bed with a final kiss goodnight.

The next day I got a letter from my dad with a small jewel inside of it and I was told to give it to someone special in the hopes that it would save them so, of course, I gave it to Hermione.

"Harry, you told me you'd figured the egg out weeks ago. The task is two days from now," Hermione said as we stood on a bridge together.

"Really? l had no idea. I suppose you've already figured it out," Harry said looking at me.

"As a favour to a friend I could tell you or give you a hint," I said but he shook his head.

"You are trying to figure this egg out, aren't you?" Hermione said.

"What's that supposed to mean?" Harry said.

"It just means these tasks are designed to test you in the most brutal way. They're almost cruel. And I'm scared for you both of you. You got by the dragon mostly on nerve. (Y/N) got by with a few spells that only he could pull off at his age. I'm not sure it's going to be enough this time," Hermione said.

"So this hint," Harry said and I smiled.

"I find that a nice long bath can sometimes clear my head and then I hear things differently in the water, take your egg relax," I said and I walked off with Hermione.

"So I am very happy with this but what do you think your dad meant by saving them," Hermione said.

"No idea but my mum did have one very similar around her neck a lot," I said.

"You think it is magical," Hermione said.

"That is the one thing I am certain of," I said.

"Still beautiful," Hermione said as she admired the jewel.

"Just like you will always be no matter what," I said as I gave her a kiss.
