3: Halloween Party pt. 2

"Oh shit" I curse to myself as Blaise and Draco start walking directly towards Harry and I.
"What?" Harry says and I realize that he heard me.
"Malfoy and Zabini, what do you want to do?" I ask, not wanting to fake hatred tonight.
"Dance floor?" Harry suggests and I instantly love the idea as the dance floor is crowded.
"Let's go." I say before grabbing Harry's wrist and tug him over to the dance floor.
"Hey! Wait! Calm down! Why're you acting like this? It's only Zabini and Malfoy." Harry asks after he ripped his hand from my grasp.
"I can't tell you, I'm sorry." I apologize, wishing I could tell him but I can't.
"Ginny?" Blaise asks from my left and I inwardly curse to myself.
"Yes?" I answer nervously, a million thought's racing through my mind.
"Can I talk to you? In private, it'll only take a minute." Blaise asks and I can tell that he's nervous.
"Sure." I say before he grabs my hand and drags me towards the entrance of the great hall.
"Where are we going?" I ask, getting a bad feeling about what he's to tell me before he abruptly stops. "Did I do something?"
"I'm ready." Blaise says vaguely.
"Ready for what exactly?" I ask, completely lost and confused.
"To tell people. About us." Blaise says and I feel my heart begin to race.
"Are you sure?" I ask, since Blaise has done this already and when I was about to tell someone he changed his mind. "Because you've said this before and we both know how that turned out."
"Yes I'm sure. I love you Gin and I want everyone to know that and for everyone to know that your mine." Blaise says, seeming confident with his choice.
"Who should we tell first? Draco maybe?" I suggest his bestfriend so he's more comfortable with the situation.
"Sure." Blaise agrees with a shrug before he laces his fingers through mine and tugs me towards Draco and Harry.
"Ginny! Ginny!" Someone shouts as they begin to shake me, instantly waking me up from my surprisingly vivid dream.
"Huh?" I groan as I open my eyes and see that it's Hermione who's shaking me.
"Hurry up or you're going to miss breakfast." Hermione says before she turns in her heel and quickly leaves the dormitory, making me wonder just how much I remember about the Halloween party is a dream.

"The Halloween party is tonight and I'd like to remind everyone of a few things." McGonagall says, standing at Dumbledore's old podium, golden owl and all, she quickly continues. "First, is that consent is absolutely mandatory between any sexual interaction between two people. Second, there will be alcoholic beverages served tonight. So keep how many drinks you and your friends have in mind. The third and last thing is that this party will go from an hour after dinner until the early hours of the morning, plan accordingly. That's all for now."
"Ugh. I'm exhausted. I could barely sleep last night." I whine as I lay my head on the table.
"You did seem a bit off this morning when I tried to wake you up." Hermione says with a quick nod. "Is anything wrong?"
"I'm just stressed out about classwork and the Halloween party everything else. I just need to sleep. Forever." I whine, just wanting to go back to my dorm and go back to sleep.
"Hey, uh, why is Blaise Zabini of all people starring at you from the Slytherin table?" Harry asks, sounding more curious than anything.
I turn around to look about Blaise and see that he is, in fact starring at me. I offer him a weak smile before I turn back around. "I have absolutely no idea. My brain is too tired to deal with anything right now."
"Strange." Hermione says simply before returning her attention back to her breakfast as my mind slowly churns about why Blaise would be starring at me.

"Could you make it anymore obvious?" Pansy asks with a sigh.
"What're you talking about?" I ask, still looking at Ginny.
"Starring at her isn't going to make her want to date or sleep with you. How dumb can you get?" Draco pipes up for the first time this morning.
"You shouldn't even be talking with the way that you eye fuck Potter every damn chance you get." Pansy says crankily.
"What has your panties in a twist?" I ask, not understanding why Pansy is being so grouchy.
"Period." Pansy says simply and I instantly know what she means.
"Ew Pans!" I say, not wanting to know when her time of the month is.
"Hey, you asked I answered. It's not my fault that when I bleed I'm a bitch." Pansy explains.
"Okay. There's something I need to tell you guys. But you have to promise to not tell another living soul." I say, hoping that I can trust them with Ginny and I's secret.
"What is it? And who else do we have to tell? Each other?" Draco answers.
"Ginny and I are dating." I say, hoping that I haven't just fucked everything up.
