"The Yule Ball has been a tradition of the....". Professor McGonagall speaks,stopping when the scratching of the record by Filch disrupts her speech. "....of the Triwizard Tournement since it's inception"
Your sat lazily on your chair,bored out of your mind as the girls and boys from Gryffindor have been seperated.Your inbetween Hermione and Faith,Maddie on the other side of Hermione with Ginny,opposite you sit the boys and you can't help but snicker whenever you see the bored expression on their faces.
"On Christmas Eve night,we and our guests gather in the Great Hall for a night of well-mannered frivolity".Professor McGonagall continues,eyeing all the students. "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".
"A dance?".You and Faith gasp out as you look at each other.
"What's the matter?Why do you look so appalled?".Maddie questions as she looks at you and the redheaded girl.
"Me and Faith both hate dancing,don't you remember?".You say with your eyebrows raised in disgust at the idea of dancing.
Hermione shakes her head."Neither of you ever mentioned it".
"Silence!".Proffesor McGonagall raises her hands and everyone's conversations stop. "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 and Faith share a look of annoyance,both of you simultaneously rolling your eyes,while Hermione and Maddie nearly can't contain the excitment that rises to their faces.Opposite you,the boys don't look too thrilled either.
"Now,to dance is to let the body breathe". Professor McGonagall continues. "Inside every girl,a secret swan slumbers,longing to burst forth and take flight".
Faith leans over to whisper to you. "I'm going to burst and take flight in a moment if this doesn't end".
On the other side of the room,Ron leans over to Seamus.
"Something's about to burst out of Eloise Midgen,but I don't think it's a swan".The redheaded boy whispers and Harry and Morris share a look.
"Inside every boy,a lordly lion prepared to prance".Professor McGonagall says,looking over at Ron as she overhears his words. "Mr Weasley".
"Don't think Ron is anything like a lion.More like a zebra".You say and both you and Faith snicker,earning you a shove to your ribs from Hermione.
"Yes?".Ron says shyly as Professor McGonagall steps up to him.
She hovers a hand over Ron's shoulder."Will you join me,please?".
Ron hesitantly stands up,Harry and Morris playfully pushing him as he walks over towards the middle of the room.
