I Know You Fancy Me ||D.M.||

Part 12

As Hermione and I start getting ready for the Ball, she seems nervous. "Are you ok?" I ask. "Yes totally fine, why do you ask?" she replies. "Well you seem a little nervous." I state. "Look like I said I am totally fine. I am just nervous to see if my date shows up. And if I look good enough for him." "Wow, hold it there. You look bloody gorgeous, if he doesn't see that, you leave him in the middle of the dance floor." I tell her, making her giggle and walk up to me and hug me. "Thank you." she says. We finish getting ready and Neville was waiting for me in the common room, "You go ahead I need to grab something." she says. "Wow Olivia, you look great." Neville says, I blush. "Thanks, that tux doesn't look to bad on you either." I say with a smile, and Neville gladly returns the smile. He swings his arm in the air so I can grab it, I do so and we walk to the Great Hall. Once arrived there I see Harry and Ron standing nervously waiting on I guess their dates. "Wow Olivia, you look absolutely stunning." a girl says walking by. I thank her and feel eyes on me. From the other end of the hall I see grey eyes watching my every move. It burns, the feeling of his eyes on me burns. I try to ignore it as Neville and I walk up to Harry and Ron. "Oi, where is Hermione?" Ron asks. "She had to grab something she will be here any minutes now actually. "You look all so handsome in those suits." I state. I look at Ron and his jaw basically drops to the floor, I turn around and see Hermione walk down the stairs. I get why his jaw dropped, she looks absolutely gorgeous. "Close your mouth Ronald, you will catch flies." Hermione says walking over to us, still nervous. "But, you look so good." Ron says very quiet, I almost didn't hear it, and Hermione didn't at all. She is looking all around the hall trying to find someone. Then Viktor Krum walks up behind her, holding his arm beside her for her to grab, but all it does is make her jump. "Sorry, didn't mean to startle you." he says with a playful look on his face. She turns around, her nerves dropping. I guess she is going with Viktor then. She grabs his arm and the dates of Harry and Ron show up. Professor McGonagall walks up to us. "Ah, there you are, Potter. Are you and Miss Patil ready?" she asks. "Ready, professor?" Harry replies. "To dance. It's traditional that the three champions, well, in this case, four. Are the first to dance. Surely I told you that." "No" Harry states. "Oh, y- Well, now you know." then she looks at Ron with an unsure look on her face. Making me and Neville giggle. "As for you Mr. Weasley, you may proceed into the Great Hall with Miss Patil." And then she walks away.  We all walk in me still holding Nevilles arm. There are already so many students in the Great Hall, chattering. Leaving Harry at Parvati. 

We all are ordered to stand with our dates in a line to welcome the champions with their dates. Draco just so happens to stand right in front of me in the other line. Smiling at me. I blush, seeing this he smiles even more. I look away as the doors open and the 8 students walk in. They all look so good together. We all applause as they make their way to the front of the Great Hall. They take place all on other corners of the dance floor, as the music starts they start to dance. Later we all join them and the Yule Ball, is full on going. Everyone seems to enjoy it. But when I look over to the tables, Harry and Ron are sitting their, with their dates. Not looking so pleased with themselves. I nod towards them and Neville lets go of me and we walk towards them. Hermione already has made her way over there. "Hot isn't it?" she asks. "Viktor's gone to go and get drinks. Would you care to join us?" "No, we'd not care to join you and Viktor." Ron says annoyed. "What's got your wand in a knot?" Hermione asks, Neville and I just stand there listening to the conversation not knowing what to do. "He's a Durmstrang. You're fraternizing with the enemy." Ron replies. "The enemy?" Hermione says hurt. "Who was it wanting his autograph? Besides, the whole point of the tournament is international magical cooperation.."  Hermione starts I see Draco standing by the drinks. "Im going to get a drink want one?" I whisper to Neville, he shakes his head. I walk over to the table with the drinks. "Hey." I say, "Hey, you look absolutely beautiful." He says rubbing the back of his neck. I blush hearing it from him makes it feel so much better. "Thanks you don't look so bad yourself." I whisper because someone is coming up to us. I don't want them to hear me. "I know." He says also knowing that someone is coming. I grab my drink and roll my eyes. I accidentally bump into him on my way back to my friends. I giggle as he humphs. When I walk back I see Hermione has left them. "What did you do now Weasley?" I ask. "Wha- why me?" "Because Ron, you were attacking her just now before I left." I state. He rolls his eyes and then his date walks away, he doesn't seem to care though. I sit next to them we chat a little untill almost everyone has left, we decide to leave too. Hermione and Ron are yet again in an argument, I don't even bother trying to listen. I know Ron is just jealous. "Off to bed, all of you!" she say now crying. I walk up to her to hug her. But she won't let me. "You guys go, I'm going to wait." I say and they all walk back to our dormitories. Hermione and I sit on the stairs for a little while before also heading back to our room. Once we get to our room we get undressed and lay in bed. Before I could fall asleep I hear knocking on the window, I look over and Dexter is there. I open the window to let him in. Around his paw there is a letter.
