***EDITED!***

*Harry's P.O.V.*

After classes, Draco and I went to his room. "So Harry, maybe you should look at that egg now," Draco suggested.

I nodded and went to the bathroom, filled up the bathtub, and opened the egg. When nothing happened I put my head under too. Then I heard very nice voices.

When we went to dinner I told them about what happened with the egg.

"So the merfolk are going to take something important and put it underwater for you to find within an hour?" Pansy repeated just to make it clear.

"Yes. But how am I supposed to be underwater for an hour?" I said feeling slightly panicky.

"Well maybe if you kiss Draco enough you will learn how to," Blaise said smirking.

"As much as I love your suggestion I don't think that will work," Draco said smiling a bit.

We sat for a moment thinking about what to do. 

"Well, maybe we could wait to until after the Yule Ball. Because we should focus on getting nice clothes and me a date." Ron said.

I looked at Draco and he said, "well, how about you take one of them." And he motioned to Pansy, Blaise, and Hermione.

"But Blaise is a boy," Ron pointed out.

"And is there something wrong with that?" I asked.

"No, but, I don't swing that way," Ron said.

I looked at Blaise and he seemed a bit disappointed. "Don't worry Ron I'm sure you will find someone."

Then we all left to go to our beds.

One week later and Ron still does not have a date. A few boys have tried to ask me out though Draco did in front of everyone. 

He was upset but I don't care. I have my Draco to take me. 

Currently, Draco and I are sitting on the couch cuddling when Dean and Seamus bring in a petrified-looking Ron.

"Ron, what happened?" I asked as Dean and Seamus put him on the couch.

"I- I asked... Fleur out," he stammered.

"And that's a bad thing?" I asked thinking he should be proud.

"How did this happen and what did she say?" Draco asked.

"Well she was walking and you know how I like it when they walk. But then I just asked her out." Ron said, seeming to be in a daze.

"What did she say?" I asked.

"I don't know. I just ran. Then Dean and Seamus found me. What can you do Harry? I can never show my face again!" Ron said.

"I don't know," I said.

The next week me, Ron, and Hermione are in potions writing. Draco is on the other side of the room with the Slytherins. 

"I mean, I don't know what to do Harry. I need a date. But who should I ask?" Ron said.

I looked at him about to answer but Snape lightly tapped me with a book and forces Ron to look at his paper.

The Twins then got our attention and told Ron to hurry up or all the goods ones will be gone. Then asked a girl out.

So he talked to me and Snape repeated the process a few times.

"Hey, Hermione you're a girl," Ron said like he just realized that. "Would you like to go to the dance with me?"

"I am not going to be a last resort!" She yelled and handed Snape her paper. "Plus I am already going with someone," she snapped and walked out.

"What did I say?" Ron asked.

"You can't just ask somebody like that. You have to at least sound like you mean it." I said earning another tap on the head and Ron was forced to look at his paper.

*Draco's P.O.V.*

That night me, Harry, Ron, Blaise, and Pansy are sitting in the Gryffindor common room. Hermione is in her room doing homework. 

Some twin girls walked past us and Harry jumped up and talked to them for a minute. Then he brought them over and they both asked Ron to the dance.

"Um. Sure I'll love to go with both of you lovely ladies." Ron said smiling.

Blaise looks like he is ready to kill. Though both he and Pansy just walked out.

Well, I won't hear the end of this. 

The next morning mom sent Harry's and my dress robes. And Ron opened his. It's frilly and everyone started laughing. 

And of course, Harry's simplicity made it more embarrassing. 

"I bet those twins won't be caught dead with you now," I said laughing.

"I'm... I'm sure they will understand." Ron said.

Then we got up and went to classes.
