As my girls and I readied ourselves for the ball, I did so with trepidation in my heart.  This feeling of apprehension wasn't fair to Reggie.  But my heart wasn't fully in this ball because the twins were not mine.  They told me I was theirs.  Maybe I should have asked if that meant they were mine.  We haven't talked since that day in the library.  Every time I see them Angelina is hanging off Fred.  I never would have thought myself the jealous type but here I was absolutely seething with jealousy.  It wasn't fair.  When did I begin to feel more than friendship?  I felt betrayed by my heart.  My heart should only fall if it's certain the other hearts are beating only for it. 

I huffed and stormed out of our room towards the boys.  I forgot that I was only in a robe with my makeup done and hair only half done as I marched to the boys room.

"REGULUS COME OUT HERE THIS INSTANT." I ordered angrily as if he'd also done me dirty.

"Yes my little mink?" Reggie asked with eyes wide as he took in my appearance.

"Are you mine?" I asked resolutely.

"I-what?" Reggie asked unsure where this was coming from.

"The twins told me I'm theirs so I assumed incorrectly that made them mine.  My heart didn't ensure that theirs beat for me before it began beating for them.  So tell me does your heart beat for me and only me?  Are you mine Regulus Arcturus Black?" I rushed out rather frantically.

"If my heartfelt confession in your grandpa's office wasn't enough then yes.  Katarina Kamenova DoBreva you are mine and I am yours.  My heart beats for you and only you." Reggie vowed.

I threw my arms around Reggie and went to seal his confession with a kiss except my annoying cousin was dragging him away by his collar.

"Don't want you to ruin your makeup yet.  Go finish getting ready cousin." Tom ordered.

I glared at my cousin before returning to my room to finish getting ready.  Daphne finished my hair and then helped me into my dress.  Daphne, Astoria, Ginny and I worked as a team to get Luna, Pansy, Tracey, and Milly ready.  Then we helped each other.

My dress was the last thing my mom had bought me.  I arrived the other day with a note from my dad saying my mom bought it early knowing she wouldn't be alive when the Yule Ball arrived. It was the perfect dress for a Slytherin queen.

We all headed down to our awaiting dates.  Only one missing was Tom who'd left go get Granger.  She didn't feel comfortable with us so she'd gotten ready with her Gryffindor girls. But Ron and Harry were brave and here to pick up their dates.

"My beautiful flower!  I have a pansy just for you though your beauty far outshines it." Harry called out to Pansy.

It was officially Prongs 2.0.
