Where has this week gone. It seems to have gone in a flash. Friday evening was upon us, and I hardly saw any of the guys this week part from class. They just seem to disappear straight after class.

Plus, I still haven't been asked by anyone to the yule ball. I know it sounds horrendous, but I was hoping that with being Mattheo's girlfriend, he would ask me. But nothing.

Shadow then came up to my window and clawed at it.

"Hey, beautiful girl." I took the letter from her mouth, and she flew off

Princess,

Meet me at our place for seven.
I have a surprise for you.

M xx

I looked at the clock right, so I had an hour. I got changed out of my robes and put something more comfy on. Nothing too special. I put on some light makeup and put my hair up in a messy bun.

I've got ten minutes to walk there. I headed down the hall and to the astronomy tower. On the stairs that go up the tower, there were all candles lit and smelling of the forest.

I opened the door to Mattheo, standing there in a smart outfit holding a bunch of tulips.

"Mattheo"

"Princess"

He gestured to come towards him. I stood toe to toe.

"Y/n Potter. You are the most incredible woman I've ever met, and I'm so sorry for not asking you sooner. But can you do me the honour of coming to the yule ball with me?"

I smiled. "I thought you would never ask."

The flowers suddenly dropped to the floor, and then he grabbed me by waist and pulled me in for a long, passionate kiss. He then made his way down my neck, nipping and kissing

"Plus, I wanted to see what you will have under your dress,"

"Oh, so is that the only reason?" I said, raising my eyebrows

He looked at me through his eyelashes which are too beautiful for a boy.

"Of course, Princess, that's the only reason," He said, rolling his eyes and in a sarcastic tone.

"I knew it," I said playfully

We continued to kiss until the cold night wind hit me. I shivered.

"Come on, let's go," He said, wrapping his arm around me, and we made our way to the common room.

We saw everyone sat in our usual spot. We walked in mid conversation.

"So will you?" Draco said, looking at Pansy

"You can't just ask me like that, Draco," she shouted back

"Hey, hey hey, what's going on?" I blurted out

"Draco just asked me to the yule ball in the most disappointing way." She sounded so upset

I looked at him. "Like, how did you ask?"

"I said because nobody else had asked her if she wanted to go with me?"
