November sooned turned into December, and news of the Yule Ball spread like wildfire.It was December 7, a Saturday. I woke up and jumped out of bed. I put on some red sweatpants and a white sweater with a red tank top underneath.
The cold has never really bothered me.
I walked into the common room and took a deep breath. It occured to me that I had never taken the time to really appreciate the glory of the Gryffindor common room.
I decided to take a morning walk around the ground after breakfast, just to explore.
I started near the forbidden forest.
I suddenly had this- feeling. An uneasy feeling that someone was watching me.
I may be in Gryffindor, but I turned around and ran the other way like a coward.
I ran into the castle and suddenly bumped into someone.
"Hey, Y/N!" Harry said a little too exited. I was a bit suspicious of this.
"Hey!" I said. His face dropped a little when I didn't use his name.
"So, I was wondering-" Harry started, but I cut him off.
"If I would help you study for the muggle studies test? Of course Harry!" I squeezed.
Look I mean I *ahem* like Harry and all but I couldn't risk him asking me to Hogsmede or the Yule Ball- yet.
I mustered an I'm sure suspicions looking smile and Harry looked defeated.
"Uh- yah that was um, exactly what I was gonna ask- Thanks Y/N.."
I smiled again and scurried away.
10:34 AM
I made my way up to Astronomy Tower. There was always a breathtaking view there, even if we weren't allowed up.
There I found a very unfamiliar face- one I knew, but not one I had ever talked to.
"Wood?" I asked as I walked closer.
"L/N?" Oliver asked in his sCcOtiSH accent. I chuckled at the way he pronounced my last name.
"Yup, that's me." I said as I ran to go stand next to him.
He looked at the view for a moment before moving his eyes onto me.
"Y'know, I've always wondered. Why didn't you try out for Quidditch?" Oliver asked me.
I laughed as I remembered.
Oliver's POV
"I was actually supposed to." Y/N said with a chuckle.
I felt my face drop.
"Well what happened?" I asked, trying not to sound too disappointed.
"Well, I was planning on trying out, but no one knew yet because I wanted it to be a suprise when I came." Y/N smiled and I smiled back.
"So basically," She continued. I couldn't help but find her smile and laugh just so painfully beautiful. She was so perfect. I accidentally tuned her out.

Your POV
I skipped back to the common room, trying to avoid every male in sight- just in case.
Suddenly, a boy a year above me named Cormac Mcglaggen caught sight of me and took a hold of my wrist so I couldn't skurry away.
I sighed. My plan was designed to fail anyway.
Cormac put on an unsettling smirk and eyed me.
Oh God...
"Did it hurt?" Cormac asked. Seriously, he couldn't do any better??
I rolled my eyes, but I figured I'd be polite.
"When you fell from Heaven?" Cormac continued, looking quite proud of himself.
I uncomfortably laughed as he continued on with his speech.
"Y/N, will you go to the Yule Ball with me?" Cormac asked, looking very confident that I would say yes.
I sighed. I didn't wanna do this.
"Actually Cormac, I might have to think about it." I said, wincing at the fact that I practically just turned down Cormac Mcglaggen.
His smirk slowly shifted into a scowl. He let go if my wrist finally and muttered, "Well tell me if you say yes." Before stomping away.
It took every cell in my body not to laugh at him.
