After my talk with Dobby, I went back to doing whatever until the last lesson of the day where Professor Mcgonagall told me to come to her Transfiguration lesson with the 4th year Gryffindors.

Blue: Hmm I wonder why I was called for this specific lesson? Oh well, might as well see.

When I enter the classroom, I saw that Harry and Ron were talking so much that Professor McGonagall had to shut them up before she can make an announcement.

Mcgonagall: The announcement is that the Yule Ball is approaching.

Blue: The wha?

Mcgonagall: The Yule Ball is a traditional part of the Triwizard Tournament and an opportunity for us to socialize with our foreign guests.

Blue: I-I still don't understand

Mcgonagall: [Sighs] It's a party but a more fancier one.

Blue: Ooooh that makes much more sense now!

Harry: [Laughs] Oh Blue

Dean: Just leave it to him to be funny without realising it

Mcgonagall: Yes now, you will all have to bring a dance partner, especially the champions because it is tradition.

Mcgonagall demonstrates how to dance with their partners by dancing with Ron after she caught him talking and not paying attention. He looked so embarrassed while doing it that some people struggled to contain their laugh.

Blue: Fred, George, you have a camera?

Fred: Oh yes we do

George: And we, as you say, caught him in 4K

Blue: Hehe, good.

When the lesson finished, Ron found out that the twins filmed him so he chased after them. Me and Harry were going to follow but Mcgonagall stopped us.

Harry: Is there something you need Professor?

Mcgonagall: Yes I'm reminding the both of you that you need to get a date.

Blue: A date? What like the 5th of November?

Mcgonagall: No Blue you're just....[Sighs] you just have to pick someone to go with, presumably a friend but it has to be a girl. You will then dance with that friend at the ball

Blue: Oh I get it, wait is this going to be hard?

Harry: It will be for me

When the two of us leave the room, Harry started to rant about how he has to hurry up and find a partner for the dance.

Harry: Agghh! I never asked a girl out before!

Blue: Harry why are you scared? Just ask a friend, it can't be that hard

Harry: No Blue, it isn't like that. I want to ask Cho Chang but she's so pretty and a year older than me so I'm really shy!

Blue: Just go for it, Cho is a really nice girl and I'm sure she will go with you. You two would be great friends, I'm going to the Gryffindor Common Room now.

Harry: Okay, I'll meet you there later. I'm going to ask Cho now

Blue: Cool I'll see you then.

I leave and go to the Gryffindor common room where I found a few of the Gryffindors around one of the sofas, sitting there was Ron...in some sort of trance?

Blue: Umm what happened to my man?

Parvati: He asked Fleur Delacour to the dance

Blue: Is that a good thing or a bad thing?
