   You and Hermione walked through the snowy streets of hogsmeade, shopping for your yule ball dresses. "So, how's Elizabeth?" Hermione asked, smirking.
   "She's dating Justin." You huffed, looking down. You mind racing from what you saw last month. You haven't told anyone what you saw in the bowl, that you might have a death eater uncle.
   "I'm sorry. She must be thick if she sees anything in Justin." Hermione said, as you walked into the dress shop.
   Beautiful dresses lined the shelves, some were so fluffy that their shirts went straight out, and others didn't covered anything. You wandered into the back of the shop, one dress on display caught your eye. A purple dress with golden flowers climbing up the skirt, was on the mannequin. It had fluffy off-the-shoulder sleeves
   "Half off and comes with free shoes, 130 galleons!" The sign in front of it read. The shoes were grey ballet flats, that wrapped around the mannequins ankles. You looked in your coin pound to see that you had just enough to buy it.
   You hurried off to the counter, and asked if the store keep could get you that dress and those shoes. They walked off, when hermione walked up to you holding a flowy periwinkle dress. "Are you going to the yule ball with anyone?" You asked her.
   "Yes, I'm going with viktor krum." Hermione said.
   "So, your into quidditch players?" You smirked, as the shopkeeper walked up holding the grey dress and shoes.
   "And your not?" She teased.
   "I'm not looking to date anyone." You said, as the prophecy hopping into your head. You quickly paid for the dresses, and you and hermione left the shop.
   "Are you going with anyone?" She asked.
   "No, I haven't been asked yet." You said, walking into the three broomsticks.
   "Hey, can I tell you something?" You lowered your voice, hermione was taken aback by your tone.
   "Sure, what is it?" She asked.
   "After the first task, I went to Dumbledore's office to see if he could fix the slytherin common room." You paused, trying to say it. "And I looked into a sliver bowl on his desk. I saw, memories of different people. I think I might have a death eater uncle."
   "What you you mean?" She asked, her voice dropping.
   "And he fought Harry's dad, and harry's dad called him a wannabe death eater. Also I think snape knew him." You said.
   "And, I tried to look him up. His first name was Travis, and it's like he dropped off the face of the earth after his last year at hogwarts!"
   "This is, a lot to take in." Hermione said. "Have you told anyone else?" "No." You said, finishing your butterbeer.
   "Hey, (y/n)." Draco said, walking up to you and hermione. "Can I talk to you?"
   "Yeah, sure." You got up and followed him. He walked back next to the bathrooms, you couldn't see any of the tables.
   "I wanted to ask you if you would like to go to the yule ball with me." He asked. "I-I understand if you don't want to go, or if you already have a date."
   "Draco, I would love to go with you." You said, kissing his cheek.
   "Greet! Have you got a dress? Because I could help you-" "Draco, stop worrying. I got a purple dress today." You cut him off.
   "Greet, is it okay if I tell Blaise and Theo?" He asked, as you notice both of them hiding behind a plant in the corner.
   "I don't think you have too." You laughed, as they stood up, and started clapping.
   "I knew she would say yes!" Blaise said. "You owe me 2 galleons!" Theodore pulled two gold coins out of his pocket and slammed in into Blaise's hand.
   "I knew he was going to ask you." Hermione said, coming into view. "Should we go back to the castle. It's getting really late." The walk back o the castle was fun, Malfoy kept making quidditch puns, and Blaise started calling you Mrs. Malfoy.
