Today is the day that Hermione and I go to Hogsmeade to buy dress
 
“Today is the big day,” Hermione said
 
“Big day? It’s just dress shopping,” I said
 
“Not just that, the day that you learn to walk in heels will come soon,” said Hermione
 
“Yeah, fun,” I said sarcastically. “Walking and falling really never sound more interesting.”
 
Ron and Harry chuckled
 
“Oh yeah, and Cedric told me that he want to meet you at the Three Broomstick this afternoon after dress shopping. He told me that in the library,” said Hermione
 
“Wait what? I thought you said no to him,” said Harry
 
“Yeah, but he just wants to hang out as friend. How bad is gonna be?” I said
 
“Yeah Fanny, the guy likes Cedric is not easy to give up, he’s going to make you his,” said Ron
 
“Wow, I’m not a thing and I don’t want to be his girlfriend,” I said and grab my purse.
 
“See you guys later,” said Hermione and I and we go shopping.
 
At Hogsmeade, at a dress store
 
“How about  this one?” Hermione showed me a really long and sparkly dress. Hermione already bought her dress while I stuck don’t really have a good feeling about the dress that I see for this entire time.
 
“No, I don’t like it,” I shrugged my head. “Maybe I just going to wear something from my closet. I don’t have a date too anyway. You’re the one that going with a Quidditch star.”
 
“No, no, no, we have to make Harry regrets from not taking you as his date,” Hermione said
 
“C’mon Hermione just let it go. It just my stupid feelings and I’m still trying to get rid of it,” I said
 
“Fanny, it’s called love and it’s not stupid,” said Hermione
 
“So the guy that you like is Harry?” said someone. Hermione and I turned around and see Cedric is standing there
 
“Hey Cedric,” I ackwardly smile.
 
“Hey Hermione and Fanny,” Cedric smiled . “Don’t worry. I will not tell him that. You’re secret save with me.”
 
“Thank’s,” I said
 
“So can I help you two? Maybe I can give you the guy’s opinion. Since my good friend here, try to get boy in his dream,” Cedric put his shoulder around me
 
“I’m never dreaming about him,” my cheeks turned red
 
“Lying,” Hermione said. “And that’s a great idea Cedric. Thank’s.”
 
“And you trying this one. It’s look like your style,” Hermione handed me a very beautiful dress. It’s vintage and it’s just perfect. I go try it on. Then..
 
“Now that’s the one,” Cedric smiled
 
“Harry doesn’t know what he’s missing,” Hermione smiled and stood beside Cedric.
 
I pay for the dress and Hermione goes to meet up with Krum. So it’s just Cedric and I and we go to the Three Broomsticks
 
“1 butterbeer and 1 hot chocolate,” Cedric said
 
“Thank’s,” I said
 
“For what?” Cedric said
 
“For your help with the dress and for ordering me hot chocolate. I don’t really like butterbeer,” I said
 
“No problem,” Cedric said
 
“So, who you’re taking to the dance?” I asked
 
“Why? You’re jealous?” Cedric smirked
 
“Of course not,” I laughed. “Just curious.”
 
“You know Cho Chang from Ravenclaw?” Cedric asked
 
“Yeah, we’re in the same class at Muggle Studies,” I sai
 
“Wait, I thought you’re grandma is a Squib?” Cedric asked
 
“Yeah, she is,” I said
 
“So, why you take Muggle Studies? You already know everything about it,” said Cedric
 
“It’s just interesting to learn it from the Wizard’s point of view,” I said
 
“So, Cho is the one that I’m going with,” Cedric smiled
 
What? Now, Harry is going to be heartbroken
 
After that, we pay our drinks and go back to the castle.
 
“It’s time for the walking lesson,” said Hermione. She smiles very brightly.
 
“Wow, it’s the second time I see you smile that bright since your last report card,” I said. “Where’s Harry?”
 
“Why?”  Hermione said
 
“I just want to say to him that Cho is going with Cedric. So he doesn’t have to feel the rejection,” I said
 
“He just go to send mail to Sirius. He’ll be right back,” Hermione said
 
“Yeah,” I said and put the heels.
 
After 1 hour of learning, after falling, trembling, tumbling, hit the chair, hit the table, I finally can walk in this heels.
 
“Wow, after that long fall, you finally can get up,” said Hermione
 
“Yeah, thank you Hermione and I can’t believe I’m still alive after that many falls,” I hugged her and after that I see Harry is coming
 
“Why you look so bummed?” I asked
 
“Cho is going with someone else,” Harry said. “I asked her at the owl’s room and she’s going with someone else.”
 
“I’m sorry,” I said but I don’t know inside I’m just feel really happy that he’s not going with Cho. And after that Ron, pretty much with a bummer face than Harry walks in with Ginny and other girls that help him walk.
 
“What happened to you?” Harry asked
 
“He just asked Fleur Delacour out,” said Ginny
 
“What?” I asked
 
“What did she say?” Harry asked
 
“No of course,” said Hermione
 
Ron shakes his head
 
“She said yes??” I suprised
 
“Don’t be silly,” said Harry
 
“There she was walking by. You know I like it when they walk. I couldn’t help it, it just sort of slipped out,” said Ron
 
“Actually he sort of screamed at her, it was a bit frigtening,” said Ginny
 
“What did you do then?” Harry asked
 
“What else? I ran for it. I’m not cut out for this Harry. I don’t know what got into me,” said Ron
 
Then the Patil twins walk past
 
“Hi Harry,” said them
 
“Hey!” said Harry and chased them. Hermione looks at me in simpathy. And mouth I’m sorry. Is it I am really invisible to him as a girl? Or maybe I’m just a best friend to him? Is it my fault to fall in love with my best friend? I’m feeling really stupid right now.

Now it’s the school dance. Well I guess I’m going alone, I change into my dress (polyvore.com/you_fought_through_darkness_brought/set?id=9212...). While Hermione still styling her hair.
“Huh, I hate my hair,” said Hermione
“Why? You’re hair is perfect,” I said
“It’s just really hard to style it,” said Hermione
“Look at me, Hermione, you look fine, you look beautiful, Krum is a lucky guy,” I smiled
“Thank’s,” Hermione said. “I’m sorry Harry doesn’t ask you and he asks the Patil twins,”
“That’s Ok, it’s kinda sad but I’ll get over it,” I lied. It’s really hurt actually.
“C’mon, now it’s your turn to change that frown upside down. Smile!” said Hermione. “You can dance with my date too if you want. I’m sure Viktor won’t mind. He likes you.”
“Thank’s but you’re the one that he likes likes,” I smirked
“Wow, you change your mood really fast,” Hermione said. “C’mon.”
Hermione grab my hand and we go to the great hall.
HARRY’S POV
Ron and I are walking down the stairs into the hall. Ron is fidgeting with his outfit
“Leave it alone,” I said
“Poor kid, bet she’s alone in her room crying her eyes out,” said Ron
“Who?” I asked
“Hermione of course. Come on Harry, why’d you think she wouldn’t tell us who she’s coming with?” asked Ron.
“Because we’d take the mickey out of her if she did,” I said. “By the way, who Fanny’s coming with?”
“I don’t know, and for Hermione, because nobody asked her. I would have taken her myself if she weren’t so bleeding proud,” said Ron.
Then we approach the Patil twins.
“Hello Ron, don’t you look dashing,” said Parvati. “And Harry, I’m sorry, my twin can’t go with you because somebody already asked her.”
I’m a little dissapointed but that’s ok
“That’s ok,” I smiled
“Here you are Potter. Are you and Miss Patil ready?” asked McGonagall
“Patil it’s not my date, and ready for what Professor?” I asked
“Mr. Potter, you should have a date. It’s traditional that the three champions or in this case four are the first to dance. Surely I told you that,” said McGonagall.
“No,” I said. How am I suppose to find a date now?
“Oh well now you know. Oh as for your Mr Weasley you may proceed into the great hall with Miss Patil,” said McGonagall
Then Hermione enter the room all dressed up, she looks really beautiful. Where’s Fanny?
FANNY’S POV
“Hermione, I think I’m not feeling really well, I will enter from the back door,” I said
“Are you sure? Maybe I can accompany you?” Hermione asked
“Don’t worry about me. Just have fun on your date,” I smiled
“See you later,” said Hermione
Hermione walks down the stairs. Viktor Krum takes her hand and they walk together.
“I hope you have a good time Hermione,” I whispered and I enter from the back door. I go to the snack table and take a glass of punch.

“Hey Fanny,” that voice, the voice that I don’t want to hear right now. Someone that I’m trying to avoid tonight. Why I have to hear that?
