hi sapphire10fun your dress is the image at the top (:
the look on george's face as i walked down the stairs was surprising.
sure, it was textbook. reckless, funny gryffindor boy known for pulling pranks gets stuck with the quiet ravenclaw girl in an attempt to get the aforementioned gryffindor boy to calm down during potions. we had gotten close, in a way, but i didn't think he liked me like that.
his face says otherwise as i head down the stairs into the ballroom, my hair in soft waves around my shoulders. luna had helped me curl it with a spell i didn't even know.
"you look really pretty, tiggs," george says, his face turning red. i could feel my own cheeks coloring, smoothing down the skirt of my dress. it was pale pink, and covered in pearlescent glitter(also courtesy of luna).
"thank you," i said, taking his hand and letting him lead me onto the dance floor. his hand find my waist like they were born to do it, like it was the most natural thing in the world.
the truth is, i've had a crush on george since the beginning of our potions partnership. when he asked me to the yule ball, my heart soared.
"thank you for coming with me," george said quietly, twirling me around.
"thank you for asking me," i replied. "i thought for sure you'd ask angelina."
"nah, i'd rather be here with you," george reassured me. "as long as you're not going to make me measure the ingredients for veritaserum."
i laughed. "you're off the hook for tonight, weasley."
the dance ended, and the music switched to something slower. george's hands tightened around my waist, and i wrapped my arms around his neck.
"have i told how ravishing you look in that dress?" george's whisper sent shivers up and down my spine.
"you're not so bad yourself," i whisper back, feeling bold. what can i say? this dress is the bomb. this night is the bomb.
"look," george remarked, reaching out and tilting up my chin. a sprig of mistletoe hung directly above us, and i can feel my cheeks burning.
"it's tradition, right?" i tried to sound cool and flirty, but my voice slightly shakes. george leaned in closer, which was kind of weird because we were already close together.
and even though we're both wizards, and we have the power to kill people with our magic,
this kiss is the most magical thing i've ever felt.
addie articulates!
here you go tiggs! i hope you like it (:
