Draco Oneshot

A/N: y/f/n is your friends name :)

You were studying with your friend in the common room. Out of nowhere, y/f/n asks, "Do you have a date for the Yule Ball?"
You almost drop your quill at the question. "No...do you?" You quiz her. She shakes her head and laughs. "Nah, not yet. Let's take a break." You agree to that and you close your books.

"I want Blaise Zabini to ask me." Y/f/n declares as you both leave the common room. You snort in laughter. "Blaise Zabini? You'll be going with him and about twelve other girls." She playfully smacks your arm. "You don't know that. Anyways, I think you should go with....hmm..." your friend thinks for a moment and all you can think is please not neville or draco

"A Weasley." Your friend says at last and you snort again. "Uh..no thank you." You both laugh as you wander around the castle. You did have your eyes on someone but it was impossible. Plus, you're pretty sure he hates you. Draco Malfoy.

You and your friend end up heading towards the Great Hall since it's almost dinner time. You two take your seats at the pretty much empty Slytherin table and wait for the others to arrive. Blaise and Draco walk in, followed by Draco's two huge minions Crabbe and Goyle.

Blaise spots you two and places himself in the seat across from y/f/n. Draco takes his seat across from yours, with Crabbe on Blaise's side and Goyle on Draco's. The food appears on the table on the four of you silently take your food and put it on your plates. Blaise is the one to break the silence by talking to your friend.

"You're y/f/n, right?" He asks her. She smiles and nods. "Yeah, I am." He smirks. "Good. Go to the Ball with me?" She goes pink but says yes. The two of them chat on through dinner, leaving you and Draco sitting awkwardly beside them.

After what seemed like an eternity to you, dinner was finally over. Y/f/n and Blaise say their goodbyes to each other and you say bye to Draco. Someone calls your name on your way out. You turn and see Draco.

"Meet me on the Astronomy Tower ten minutes before the Ball." He sayd, his face a light pink. Your stomach does flips. You nod with a small smile before running to tell your friend. You broke into a huge smile.

It was finally, finally, the night of the Ball. Your are wearing a long and fitting to your body dark green dress with black lace on it. Your heels are black and your friend braided your hair. You walk out of the bathroom and into the dormitory. Y/f/n squeals and tells you that you look gorgeous.

You make your way to the Astronomy Tower and see a dark figure leaning on the railing. He turns when he hears your heels. You hold your breath. Draco looks stunning with his fitted dark suit with his Dark green tie and Slytherin serpent pin. He looks breathless as well.

"You..you look beautiful. Stunning." He says, and gives you a lopsided grin. You blush and flatten out a part of your dress. "Thanks. You don't look bad yourself, either." You both give small laughs when Draco blurts something out that shocks you.

"Y/n, I've always liked you, even if you're a muggle born." You can't believe what you just heard. Is he serious? "Come on, we'll be late." He says quickly, holding an arm out to you. You take it and walk into the ball with him. You see your friend and Blaise and she gives you a thumbs up. You smile to yourself as you start to dance with him.
