y/n pov:
Cedric looked at me with hopeful eyes. I stood for a couple of moments thinking about what answer to give him.
If I say no then I will be at the yule ball alone and most likely have a boring time, but if I say yes I could have a somewhat enjoyable time with one of the most desired boys in Hogwarts.
"You know what Cedric, yes I will go to the Yule Ball with you," I say grinning at the brunette boy.
Cedric's hopeful look now morphed into one of the biggest smiles I've ever seen.
He wraps his arms around me and squeezes me as though he was afraid to let go.
"I'll see you then," He says slowly letting me go and walking towards his common room.
I just smile to myself and walk to the Gryffindor common room, with a skip in my step.
I walk into the common room and I was met with Hermione, Ron, and Harry huddled around the small coffee table in the middle of the room.
They all turn their heads around at the sudden noise of me walking in.
"Y/n where have you been all day" Hermione askes.
I continue walking towards them and then collapse into the couch.
"Guess who has a yule ball date," I say in a sing song tone.
"Oh my Godric, did Fred finally bloody ask you?" Ron askes his words full of excitement.
My smile slowly disintegrated at the mention of Fred's name, oh how I wish that was the case. That I was going to the Yule Ball with the boy I've fancied since the first year.
I quickly clear my throat and remember who I am. Bloody hell I'm y/n Black, no boy is worth my tears.
"Uh no, your tosspot of a brother asked Angelina, I'm going with Cedric"
Ron and Harry's face dropped slightly but Hermione began squealing and jumping up and down.
"OH. MY. MERLIN. You're going with Cedric Diggory?!" Hermione says grabbing me by my shoulders.
I giggle and give her a slight nod.
"Wait, wait, wait, so you mean to tell me after all that snogging and PDA you and Fred have done you're not going together?" Ron says shaking his head in disbelief.
I turn my attention towards Ron, now having a much more serious look on my face.
"Nope, he asked Angelina," I say shrugging.
"Uh, why?" Harry asked confused.
"Think you, bloody idiots, what is Angelina known to be good at?"
My three friends stand there thinking for a moment before Hermione's face lights up as she finally caught on.
"Love potions" She exclaims.
"Wait you mean to tell me that she has Fred under a love potion" Ron askes his face turning pale.
"Yep and a bloody powerful one at that, I could barely talk to him before she came in giving him another dosage of it. If we can just keep him away from her long enough for the effects to wear off before she gives him more he'll snap out of it" I answer.
"Bloody hell" Ron whispers under his breath.
"Speak of the devil" Harry whispered to us while laughing.
We all turn around to where Harry was facing and sure enough, there was Angelina, shockingly Fred wasn't trailing behind her like some lost puppy.
I pull my wand out of my robe pocket and storm up to Angelina.
"Listen here you bloody skank, I know what you're up to and just know deep in his heart Fred wants me, not you. So believe me when I say you will be exposed and if you ever try to attack me again it will not end well for you. Understand?" I say pointing my wand at her neck.
Fear flickered in Angelina's eyes for a moment but she quickly masked it by letting out an unamused laugh.
"And what are you going to do about it?" She asked raising an eyebrow.
"Furnunculus," I say, my wand still pointed at her neck.
Angelina was now covered in boils from head to toe, she looked down at her hands and shrieked in disgust.
"Don't fuck with me" I say looking her in the eyes before walking away.
Hermione, Ron, and Harry all looked at me there eyes wide as they had just watched the interaction between Angelina and I.
I smirk as they all look at me speechless.
"y/n, what's with you and dark charms?" Harry askes still taken aback by my actions.
"Not too sure I just find them fun" I say shrugging.
Hermione opened her mouth to speak, most likely to scold me or something but the common room door swung open interrupting our conversation.
Fred walked in and rushed towards Angelina.
"Bloody hell I can't deal with this," I say rolling my eyes and getting up.
I begin walking up towards my dorm but a familiar voice calls my name.
"y/n what the hell is your problem?" Fred spits causing me to stop in my tracks and turn to face him.
I know he was under a love potion but this boy was getting on my nerves.
"Why don't you ask your little girlfriend Fred, I was only protecting you," I say trying to keep my voice steady.
"I don't need you, I don't need you to protect me either" he responds while holding Angelina in his arms.
He held her the way he used to hold me when I was upset, he would wrap his arms around me and whisper into my hair that everything would be alright, that he was always going to be there.
"You're right Fred, I'm sorry. I know you'll be back soon" I say before turning around and walking back towards my dorm.
It broke my heart not being able to be with Fred; he was all I thought about he was the reason I got up every morning, he was what kept me safe. Now, who am I supposed to go to?
I need to get Angelina away from him, at least long enough for the effects to wear off.
And I knew just where I was going to do it.
The Yule Ball.
