Year 4
I see Newt, and he sees me. I see him gape at me, and I shyly wave at him. He fixes his posture, an his face turns red as I walk towards him. I can see Everyone either smiling, laughing, or dancing. Evelyn and Bucky are dancing, and I turn to see them give me a thumbs up. I giggle lightly and turn back to Newt.
"Y-Y-Y-Youlookbeautiful" He rushed out, but I understood what he said, and turned red in the face. "Y-Y-You're looking n-n-nice in a-a tuxedo." I grin at him. I swear his adorable yet too handsome to be possible face gets redder than a cherry. We talk and laugh for a while until someone from Ravenclaw, Griffin O'Maker comes up to me, and I immediately frown." Would you like to dance with me?" He had asked, and I shook my head. "S-Sorry, G-G-Griffin, but n-no thank you." I tell him, and turn back to Newt, only to see him frowning at him, but then I see his eyes light up when I say 'S-Sorry.' Griffin leaves, and Newt and I go back to laughing.
"W-Wanna dance?" Newt asked me all of a sudden, and I smile." O-O-Of couse. I-I must warn y-y-you though, I-I dance like a buffoon." I told him, laughing at myself. "I-It's fine." He told me, and we went to the others who were dancing, and danced along.
I was lucky enough to not step on Newt's feet when dancing, and I didn't mess up my steps. "What was that about dancing like a buffoon." He chuckled. "You're m-merely f-flattering me." I had told him, blushing while looking away. He rolled his eyes, and laughed. I have never heard a sweeter sound in my life, and I turned red. "I-I'm telling you, I usually dance like a buffoon." I told him again. "Yeah Yeah, next thing I know, next thing you'll tell me is that you can't feed a Kelpy." He chuckled, and I shook my head. " But i can!" I told him.
"That's the point. You can dance." He told me. I shook my head, and took his hand, and so we ran out to my bag."Why did we leave?" He asked me. "T-T-Tommy's just worried,and I-I told him I-I'll be back after an hour or two." I told him, and he smiled at my worried face.I felt my blood rushing to my face again while he smiled. That damn smile. I thought to myself. I wish I was able to confess, it would be a perfect moment and all. But what if he doesn't love me back? Will our friendship be ruined?He'll probably be disgusted at me, I just know it, everything is just so confusing and I don't kno-- "Doll? A-Are you alright?" Newt had asked me, and when my eyes widened, I didn't realise they were blurry."I-I haven't heard that b-being used in y-years..." I told him quietly.
Next thing you know, I hugged him, and we stayed like that. I feel nice.
