{ The Yule Ball: a winter dance for second years and up to attend and have fun all night long. }
ɴᴏ, ᴛʜɪs ɪs ɴᴏᴛ ᴛʜᴇ ᴀᴄᴛᴜᴀʟ ᴅᴇꜰɪɴɪᴛɪᴏɴ!!

As I stand outside waiting for Hermoine to finish her jacket, I look around. Snow falls lightly, flakes falling to the ground without rush. I see some first years throwing snowballs. I remember two years ago, my first year at hogwarts. I was so scared I wouldn't make friends, but here I am now.

Hermoine meets me outside and we walk over to Ron and Harry(yes, Harry Potter, the one and only), who are standing by some pine trees.

"So," Hermoine says, " who's your dates to the Yule Ball?"

Ron looks nervously at Hermoine, "Well, I was actually um, wondering if you wanted to go with me?" he asks.

Hermoine sighs, "Ron, I'm going with Krum, remember? The guy from north wing?"
Harry and I both hide a giggle while Ron remembers.

"Well I'm sure you guys will find some beautiful ladies to go with you," I say, smiling at them.

"Actually Ameylia, I was wondering if you wanted to go to the ball with me?" asks Harry. I feel a bit of guilt. He sees my face and quickly adds, "as friends?" I look at Ron and Hermoine who are patiently waiting for my answer.

"Well I suppose, I mean it's not like anyone is else is going to ask me anyways," I reply, Harry grinning.

"Brilliant," he gives a toothy grin. Laughing, I notice something out of the corner of my eye, I figure, a shadow. I turn around only to see a blonde boy, Slytherin. Malfoy.

"Laughing it all up aye?" he asks, "it must be that hard to find a date to the yule ball to the point where you ask your friends." He sneers. Hermoine rolls her eyes and pulls Ron, expecting Harry and i to follow.

"That's quite funny Malfoy, considering you couldn't pay someone to be your date," I snap back. Malfoy rolls his eyes and goes back to his goons who are watching from a distance.

"I hate them." Says Hermione, shaking her head.

"Yeah, they are pissy for no reason. Bloody Hell, why do such ignorant wizards exist?" Ron asks.

"To make the awesome wizards, like us, look better!" Laughs Harry and we all agree.
