Royals (Draco Malfoy x Reader)

Chapter 50

Fleur Delacour

After helping Ginny pick out a dress I was exhausted, "(Name)!" I spun and there stood William "me, you, Yule ball?" He grinned handing me a bouquet of red roses, "yeah sure why not Will" I smiled at the blonde, "Thank you! I love you!" He ran off and I laughed to myself "out of the 73 people who asked you. you said yes to William?" Hermione called after me running up to catch up to me. "well yes William is my best friend since I was a baby, plus we always have great fun at balls together" I smiled at Hermione who shook her head a smile on her face, I handed her the roses, "red isn't my colour" I laughed "(Name)!" I turned around and Cedric Diggory stood in front of us, "would you go to the Yule Ball with me please?!" he handed me a bouquet of sunflowers and I smiled "I'm sorry Cedric, I just said yes to William" I went to hand him back the flowers and he shook his head "no keep them! also save me a dance!" he smiled and I nodded waving goodbye, I handed Hermione the flowers yet again "yellow is definitely not my colour!" and she began to laugh.

We had barely gotten to the Libary when I was stopped again by Ron none the less, he handed me some red sweet peas, "Yule ball?" I shook my head and he frowned "she just said yes to William, you're the third person in five minutes!" Hermione glared at Ron "Keep the flowers" he said as he sulked off "want some sweet pea's Mione?" I giggled and she nodded excitedly adding another bouquet to ger hands. "Yule ball?" I turn and there stood Draco, "Pardon?" "You heard me, you, me Yule Ball" he handed me a bouquet of Altari orient lilies "my favourite" I muttered and he grinned "I do listen" he laughed and Hermione glanced at the both of us "I'm sorry Draco, William just asked me and I said yes" his smile faded "you're the fourth in the last six minutes" Hermione chimed and Draco spun and stormed off. 

"This is mad. At this rate, we'll be the only ones in our year without dates." Ron complained and Snape hit him with a book and I giggled, "Well, us and Neville!" Ron continued, "But then again he can take himself." Harry added, "It might interest you to know that Neville's already got someone." Hermione butted in, Fred passed Ron a note and I read it over his shoulder 'get a move on, the best one is already gone, go any slower and the others will be too' "who's the best one?" I questioned and Ron shook his head, snape whacked him again. "Hermione, you're a girl!" Ron looked at her and I laughed, "well spotted Ron, she is indeed a girl" I smiled sarcastically, "Come on. It's one thing for a bloke to show up alone. For a girl it's just sad." he said to Hermione and she looked extremely upset. "I won't be going alone because believe it or not someone's asked me. And I said yes" she hissed, she slammed her book closed and stormed off. "Look. We've just got to grit our teeth and do it. Tonight when we get back to the common room, we'll both have partners. Agreed?" Ron looked at Harry who nodded "Agreed"

Ron was being helped into the Gryffindor common room, I sat with Harry and Hermione on the couch as he vented to us about Cho, and how that was the second girl that rejected him, his head rested on my lap as I played with his hair my head resting on Hermione's shoulder. "What happened to him?!" Harry shot up quickly. "he asked Fleur Delacour out" a girl explained, "What?" my eyes widened in pure shock, "What did she say?" Harry asked "No of course?!" Hermione exclaimed, Ron shakes his head, "she said yes!" I gasped "Don't be silly!" Harry nudged me and I laughed, "There she was walking by. You know I like it when they walk. I couldn't help it, it just sort of slipped out." The ginger explained as three girls lead him over to the couch and sat him beside Harry. "Actually he sort of screamed at her, it was a bit frightening." Ginny explained and I snorted with laughter "what did you do then?" I asked, "What else? I ran for it. I'm not cut out for this Harry. I don't know what got into me." Ron was as white as a ghost. The Patil twins walk by us "Hi Harry!" They smiled at him "Hey!" He replied.
