"He asked me to the Yule Ball, I can't believe it", Alexia cheers. "I am so happy for you", I hug her. I have never been to the Yule Ball, but all the stories I have heard make me so curious and excited. Today we're going to Gladrags Wizardwear, the clothing store in Hogsmeade, to go looking for a dress. I do not have a date yet, but that is not the most important. I don't want to miss my first Yule Ball. 

Together with the girls I am on my way to Hogsmeade. We have decided that we are going to have a game night when we are back from the village. We are going to buy some sweets at Honeydukes and tonight we will play some board games in the common room. 

There are so many beautiful dresses in the Gladrags Wizardwear store. The dresses hang throughout the whole shop. Nicola and Alexia run straight to the department with green dresses. I think I am going for a more basic dress, so I walk to the department with the black dresses. There are some really big dresses, but I want my dress to show my body shape. I choose a long tight black dress made of silk, my favorite material. I will finish it with green accessories I have in my dorm. Nicola went for a big green dress with a lot of crystals and Alexia for a tight dark green dress. 

"Let's go to Honeydukes, I am so hungry", cheers Alexia. When we get out of the shop we notice that it is snowing, there is even a layer of snow on the ground. Apparently we have fitted dresses for such a long time that it has started snowing in the meantime. I did not dress for it, it is really cold. 

We walk in to Honeydukes and there's a lovely sweet smell. In the store it is cold as well. While picking out sweets, I am shivering a little from the cold. "Take my robe", I turn around and see Draco putting off his robe and put it on me. "Draco, what are you doing?!", I hear from outside the store. "I'm coming father", Draco walks out of the store. That was really sweet of him. 

When we have paid for all the sweets, we walk back to the station.
