I walked in the halls and went back through the portrait and into my Dorm. "Hey Y/n! We were just starting to get ready." Hermione told me as she put a spell on Ginny's hair, curling it.

"When's the Ball?" I asked.

"In an hour and a half? But for you an hour I'm sure, you're a champion." Hermione explained.

"Oh yeah I have to go early. Ugh." I whined.

"You're going with Fred I suppose?" Ginny chimed in.

"...No-"

"I'm sorry for asking. It's none of my business-" Ginny started.

"No Gin, it's fine. I'm going with Cedric instead." I told her.

"What!" Ginny stood up smiling. "You're so lucky!"

"I know right! He's cute and all...but I did want to go with your brother." I said.

"He's a jerk anyways." Ginny whispered.

"Agreed."

I took the dress that Sirius gave me and walked into the bathroom. I slipped off my normal clothes and slid on the dress. I looked in the mirror. It fit perfectly. I walked out and slid on some white heels. "What do you think?" I asked giving the girls a little twirl.

"It's beautiful! I told you it'd look amazing on you." Ginny yelled.

"Wow Y/n...Fred doesn't know what he's missing." Hermione exclaimed.

"Haha. A simple 'it looks nice' would've sufficed." I laughed.

Ginny had on a minty dress with some pink details on it. Hermione had a more pink dress on, with a bunch of ruffles. I watched as Hermione did a spell on her hair, curling it and putting it into a bun, some curled bits framed her face. "Think you could curl my hair Mione?" I asked.

"Sure. Come here." She said.

Hermione did the spell on my hair, which curled it. It looked like a fluffy blowout. "I thought this would suit your hair more. It looks beautiful." Hermione explained.

"Thank you!" I exclaimed as I began working on my makeup.

I put on some eyeliner, highlight in the corner of my eyes, and some mascara. Then I put on some light blush. I turned around to see Hermione putting on her heels, and Ginny putting on flats. "I don't feel like having sore feet tomorrow." Ginny laughed.

"Me either. But Cedric's like 6'3. Kind of hard to dance with someone that tall." I explained.

"Krum is tall too. I really hope it makes Ron jealous. I've only told you two that we were...going to the dance." Hermione told us.

"I love girl talk! It'll totally make him jealous. No offense Ginny, but you're brothers aren't the smartest. I think you got all the brainpower." I laughed.

"That's so true! Ronald is a bloody pig." Ginny agreed.

Hermione laughed. I heard a knock on the door and I got up to open it, almost tripping on my dress. I opened the door, Fred and George were standing there. "Wow." They said in unison.

"What do you two need?" I said while smiling.

"Oh! Um, Your guy's dates are waiting outside." Fred said after looking me up and down.

"Ginny, Neville's in the Common Room. He's sweating and everything, nervous thing he is." George told Ginny.

"Oh my..." Ginny whispered.

"Ready you two?" I asked the girls.

"Yes." They said in unison.

"One second." I ran to the bathroom, still not used to my heels.
