Chapter 1

It was a cold dark night and Pansy was sitting in her room by herself thinking of nothing in particular but just thinking, (Most of her room mates were outside having sleigh rides with there boyfriends or in the library trying to study for there exams.)when a dark figure came out of the shadows it didn't scare her because she knew who was there.

"I've been waiting till you realized how stupid your hiding spot was" pansy said in a rather sarcastic voice

"yeah well I can't help it your room is too messy to find a better hiding spot, I was going to hide under the bed but you have a whole load of crap under there that I was afraid to come into contact with" said a rather handsome looking blonde haired boy

Pansy blushed because her room has been quite messy lately and all pure bloods would always have a clean and tidy room and she just couldn't be bothered and she wasn't that fond of house elves touching her stuff so she just left it on the floor.

"What are you doing in my room anyway? And why are you hiding in the shadows? I must say it's not like you, you normally come barging not giving a damn of what you might see or run into" said Pansy while she was staring outside her window not really caring Draco was in her room.

Boys weren't allowed in the girl's dormitories but no-one really cared about that rule and Pansy and Draco had been friends for so long that he wouldn't see anything he hadn't already seen.

"What do you want Draco"

"Is it such a crime for me to come and see my friend and see how she is going on this cold Christmas Night?"

"Anybody else yes but you no definitely not. You obviously want something"

Draco looked at with hurt in his eyes but quickly changed to pouting so she wouldn't see but she did.

"Ok, ok I'm sorry Draco how are you doing?"

"Don't patronize me pansy. I'm just bored there is nothing to do and no-one smart enough to have a decent conversation with"

Pansy stopped looking out the window and giggled. She sat up to look at Draco. He looked rather dashing with his hair falling over his face giving him a rugged look. She went to sit next to him on her bed and he instinctively snaked his arm around her waist. She didn't mind and she didn't even really notice. They both sat there in silence for a moment or two when Draco broke the silence.

"Pansy what are you thinking of?" he said in a dreamily matter.

"I'm thinking of the holidays and how good it will be to go back home after this semester" she replied.

"Are you coming to the Christmas Ball" he asked

The Christmas ball was held every year at Hogwarts and all the girls loved it. It gave the students a reason to dress up. But Pansy didn't really care she hadn't been a girly girl per say but more of a tomboy. She would hang out with the boys and she only had a few close girlfriends because most girls would scowl at her for her close relationship with the Slytherin Prince. To make matters even worse she was the Slytherin Princess so everyone thought they were the most likely couple, seeing that they have been friends for such a long time.

"The Christmas Ball. Oh yeah that I guess so. You gotta a date yet" she said not really caring.

Draco blushed because he hadn't gotten a date. Don't get me wrong, plenty of girls had asked him but he had turned them all down.

"Nope. Have you got one" asking her in a rather curious tone

Pansy had noticed him blush and couldn't help but let out a little giggle, a little too loud because draco had heard it.

"What's so funny? You better not be laughing coz I don't have a date, I have been asked by every Slytherin girl and I turned them all down"

"So that's why Daphne Greengrass was crying in potions. And by the way you haven't been asked by every girl in Slytherin, one girl hasn't asked you"

"Yeah, well that one person obviously doesn't have any brains"

Draco knew that Pansy hadn't asked him coz she was smiling the whole time they were talking.

"Whatever. The answer to your question is no I haven't got a date. But Blaise asked me and I think I'll go with him" she said in a sly tone

Draco glared at her.

"What! Did I say something that's offended you. Stop glaring at me you idiot?"

"Oh I'm sorry Mrs Zabini but could you blame me your going to the ball with a PRAT!!"

"Blaise isn't a Prat he's a good friend of mine. What's it to you what's your problem with him anyways"

Draco kept quiet but just glared t her. Pansy sighed.

"Draco if I didn't know better I might think you're jealous" she said cheekily

"I am not jealous of a Zabini the stupid PRAT! Pansy you really got to think about what your doing if you go to the ball with Zabini then your rep will be tainted" Draco said in a rather sarcastic tone

Pansy laughed and laid down on her bed and thought for a minute.

"If I don't go with Blaise who do I go with all the guys that have asked me are jerks and only want sex" she said in a fed up tone

"And how many guys have asked you" Draco asked with jealousy creeping back into his tone

"Oh just a few" she said in a bored voice

Of course this annoyed Draco and all he did was sat there a pouted.

"Ok then Draco who do you want me to go to the ball with if your so wise and intelligent"

Draco couldn't help but smirk at this remark. He swallowed hard and began to blush furiously. Which is strange due to his complexion. White as ivory.

"Y- you c-could go to the b-ball with me" he stuttered in a very very nervous tone

Pansy was a little surprised at this but not so much after a while because her and Draco went to every ball together. She couldn't find a reason for her to change the tradition.

"I would love to go to the ball with you" she said happily kissing him on the cheek

He sat there with a ridiculous grin on his face which he soon realized and covered it up with a smirk and a small smile.

"Thanks Pansy" he said kissing her back on the cheek.
