Chapter 1: The yule ball

Crystal is Harry's lil sister by 20 minutes. She is a just like her mother and is good at potions. She's in Gryffindor with her brother and their friends and is Keeper in Quidditch. Crystal has been with Harry since first year. She also made enemies with Drago Malfoy on the day He introduced himself to Harry. In second year she joined Fred and George with their pranks as she became keeper on their team. In third year, she was helping Harry, Hermione, Ron and Ginny by trying to grasp information from students. It's their fourth year and everyones first time going to the Yule Ball and Beauxbatons and Drumstrang students arrived and joined in the celebration and also traditional for Triwizard Tournament. Harry and Cedric were chosen to be in the tournament. Crystal read all about the Tournament and learnt that many wizards have died in the tournament. It was freaking her out big time.

This is what happened during after the announcement.


Crystal-Mae was walking with Hermione, Cho, Luna and Ginny as they talked about the Yule Ball.

"I heard that someone was asked to go to the ball with Victor Krum from Drumstrang." Crystal said to the gang as she looks at Hermione with a smirk on her face.

"How do you even know about that anyway?" Hermione asks her friend as she faintly blushes in embarrassment.

"You just told me." Crystal replies to her friend as she blushes even more in embarrassment.

"You have to stop being so clever Mae-flower!" Ginny teases her jokingly as she playfully elbowed her left arm.

"You know that It'll never happen in a million years Ginny!" Crystal told Ginny playfully.

"Who are going with Cho?" Crystal asks Cho curiously.

"I'm going with Cedric." Cho replies to her friend as a tint of blush appears on her face.

"Did anyone from our grade asked you two to go to the Ball?" Crystal asks Luna and Ginny since they are a year younger than them.

"I was asked by Neville! It's going to a really fun night." Ginny replies to her friend with a smile on her face.

"I wasn't asked. "Looney Lovegood" remember." Luna replies to Crystal as she quotes the name that everyone calls her.

"One, their idiots to not notice how awesome you are! Two, you can ask Professor Dumbledor to see if you can pull up an article about the Yule Ball." Crystal told her lovely friend with a smile on her face.

"Thank you Crystal." Luna thanks her friend as they walk towards their class.

"Speaking of Dates, who are you going to the ball with Mae-flower?" Hermione asks Crystal with a grin on her face.

"I'm going to ball with George. We promised to group up with Fred and Angelina." Crystal replies to Hermione as they were close to their dsestination. Crystal spots Crabbe, Goyle, Pansy bullying Neville again with their ring leader being no other than Draco Malfoy.

"Girls you go ahead, I have some business to attend to." Crystal told her friends as she headed towards the Slytherin bullies as she held her wand in her hand.

"Leave Him Alone Malfoy!" Crystal commanded Malfoy as Neville looked terrified yet relieved that Crystal was here. Draco smirks and turns to look at the dark red head beauty as she crosses her arms and glares at him.

"Stay out of it Potter!" Pansy told Crystal with her snobbish expression on her face.

"Leave him be Malfoy!" Crystal commands Malfoy as she ignores Pansy.

"Didn't you heard what I said Potter?!" Pansy told Crystal in her harsh tone as she glares at her.

"I did, but I wasn't talking to you Pansy. I was talking to the ringleader of the whole group." Crystal responds to Pansy in a mannerly tone, even though she was annoyed by her antics of trying to scare her.

"At least I'm popular! You only hang around those losers you call friends!" Pansy said to Crystal as she began to smirk.

"Sonorus!"Crystal said as she pointed her wand at Pansy's throat as she sighs in annoyance and brings the wand back to her body.

"My voice!" Pansy said with a terrified expression.

"Anyone else want their voice to change?" Crystal asks the Slytherin bullies as they looked terrified except for Draco.

"Then leave my friend alone!" Crystal told the group as they nodded in agreement, Crystal return Pansy her voice and the group ran to their class. Neville sighed in relief once more and got off of the wall.

"Thanks Crystal." Neville thanks his friend and headed to class. Crystal spots Draco staring at her with a smirk on his face.

"What do you want Malfoy?" Crystal asks him in annoyance and curiosity.

"I'm impressed Mae Potter. You still haven't changed since first year." Draco said to her soothingly.

"Neither have you Malfoy." Crystal said to Draco as she rolled her eyes.

"I wonder who chose you to be their date?" Draco said to Crystal amusingly.

"I'm going with George Weasley. Were joining up with friends since I barely sync with someone in this school." Crystal replies to Draco not knowing that he's a little jealous deep inside.

"A Weasley? You've chose a no good Weasley? You an awful taste in gentlemen Potter." Draco said to Crystal as he laughs.

"Hey! He's a great gentlemen and he's my friend!" Crystal defends her friend as she glares at him.

"As you already know that I'm going with Pansy, since none of these girls fit the description I was looking for." Draco said bluntly as Crystal understood correctly where he was coming from. Just because their enemies, doesn't mean that they can be civil towards each other from time and again.

"Come on Malfoy, were going to be late for Professor Snape's Potions class." Crystal told Draco as they both headed to the class.


In class,

Draco has been secretly glancing at Crystal when Snape had his back turned around. Harry spotted this and glared at Draco with a warning behind it.

DIIIIINNNNGGGGG

Class was over and Crystal was struggling to grab her books. Draco actually slid his hair back a little and was about to walk up to her when Harry got to her first.

"Let me help you with that Crystal." Harry said to his sister as he grabs some of her books as Crystal grabs the rest.

"Thanks O mighty brother of mine!" Crystal thanks her brother playfully as they were about to head out of the classroom until…

" , ! I need to speak with the both of you." Snape's told them in his strict voice.

"Be outside in a minute Harry." Crystal told her brother as he nodded and waited outside for her. Draco and Crystal walked up to Snape's to find out what he wants to talk about so urgently.

"Mr. Malfoy! Ms. Potter! Both of you are my top students in my class. Since you two excel, I am pairing you two as Potion partners and study partners." Snape's explains to Crystal and Draco as he looks at them seriously.

"WHAT?!" Draco and Crystal shouted in shock and disbelief.

"No complaining from you two! It's important for the both of you. Now leave. " Snape said to them as Draco and Crystal headed out the classroom, knowing their is a motive in his method.

"Good news or bad news?" Harry asks his sister as they began to head to lunch together.

"Snape made me partners with Malfoy." Crystal told her brother in annoyance.

"What?! Thats insane?! You two can't stand each other!" Harry said to his little sister as he was shocked by her terrible news.

"I know! But enough about me, Who are you going to the Yule ball with?" Crystal asks her big brother as they headed to the cafeteria.

"I don't know yet. I don't know who to go with. Ron and I are still searching." Harry replies to Crystal knowing that he looks nervous.

"Well you two could just tag along with George, Fred, Angelina and I. Were going together a little late getting there." Crystal suggested to her brother as they reached the cafeteria.

"That would be great, but I have to be there in order to open the yule ball with the other champions of the Triwizard tournament." Harry told his sister even though he knows she hate talking about the tournament.

"Well! Thank you for carrying my books and Good luck!" Crystal thanks her brother, grab her books and headed to a table where George and Angelina were siting to discuss their plans for the Yule Ball tonight.

Draco was with his group talking about the Yule Ball until he spots a male Drumstrang student near his table, was trying to head towards Crystal's table to flirt with her. Draco "accidentally" left his leg out and the Male student tripped over him and pushed into a female student from Beauxbaton.

Draco smirks how the two students were conversing after the trip, knowing that he is not going to be flirting with Crystal. He glances at Crystal yet again as he spots her laughing to something that one of her friends said. Crystal eyes locked with Draco for a second and watches his head turn back around. Crystal shrugs and went back to her friends, not noticing that Harry was watching the whole thing from his table.

After lunch,

Draco spots Harry walking towards him with a threatening expression on his face.

"Leave my little sister alone Malfoy." Harry warns him and went to find someone to go to the yule ball with.

"What's his problem?" Draco thought to himself annoyingly as he headed to as headed towards his room to prepare for the Yule Ball.


With Crystal,

Hermione, Luna, Ginny, Angelina and Cho were all dressed up in their Yule Ball dresses waiting for Crystal to come out of her room.

"Mae-flower! Hurry up already!" Angelina shouted to her playfully outside her door as she waited for her friend.

"Alright! I'm coming." Crystal replies to her friend who's waiting for her outside of her room.

Crystal opens her door and her friends were surprised in a happy way. Crystal is wearing a long one strap fitted black gown with purple floral designs and the bottom flowing. She is wearing black heels and her hair on the left side all curly with a silver floral hair clip on the right side as she wore pink lipstick with natural eyeshadow and blush to go with her skin tone. She also wore a black wrap around her shoulders. Crystal is nervous to know what her friends thought of how she looks.

"Well girls, what do you think?" Crystal asks her friends nervously.

"You…Look..BEAUTIFUL!" All the girls said to her happily as Crystal sighs in relief.

"Hey! Whats the hold up everyone?" The boys asks as they headed to the girls direction and stopped once they saw Crystal all dressed up.

"Hey guys! It's my fault that I'm close to holding you guys up." Crystal said to the guys truthfully.

"You can take as long as you like." George said to her flirtatiously.

"Hey! She's still my little sister!" Harry told George as he punched his arm and walks towards his sister.

"You look beautiful." Harry said to his sister as he kissed her on the forehead and began to head to different directions.

At the Yule Ball,

Harry and Ron went with the Patil sisters, Hermione is with Viktor Krum, Cho is With Cedric, Ginny with Neville and Luna all alone writing about the Yule ball. Harry and Parvati danced in the opening of the ball with Hermione and Viktor, Cedric and Cho, Fleur Delacour and Roger Davies. After the opening dance was finished, everyone began to dance with their dates and some were socializing. Fred and Angelina enters the ball happily and began to dance. George looks at Crystal to make sure if she's ok.

"Are you ready Crystal?" George asks Crystal as he held her hand. Crystal took a deep breathe and nodded as they began to enter the ball. All eyes went on Crystal as she began to dance with George as they were chatting with Angelina and Fred. Draco saw Crystal and drops his drink without noticing.

"Draco! Are you alright?!" Pansy asks him since he dropped his drink.

"I'm fine. Just perfect…" Draco replies to Pansy as he looks at Crystal lovingly. Crystal and George stops dancing together and began to talk to others. Draco headed to where Crystal is located and began to talk to her.

"Hello Mae Potter." Draco greets her mannerly which was weird to Crystal in a way.

"Hello Malfoy. You look handsome." Crystal greets him in a mannerly expression.

"Thank you. You look Beautiful." Draco complements her genuinely. They started to converse more as the ball goes on while they stood in the same spot without moving.

Then the Weird Sisters began to play an unfamiliar song that was slow and romantic with some violinists and a pianist joining them. The song was unusual like the other songs they perform, but this song made wizards and witches dance together.

You're in my arms, and all the world is calm.
The music playing on for only two.
So close, together.
And when I'm with you
So close, to feeling alive.

Draco looks at Crystal as she feels the music lovingly. Draco faces her and sticks his hand out.

"May I have this dance ?" Draco asks her in a polite mannerly expression as he smiles a tiny bit.

"I would love to Mr. Malfoy." Crystal replies to him as she took him hand and began to walk onto the dance floor together.

A life goes by,
Romantic dreams must die.
So I bid my goodbye
And never knew.
So close, was waiting,
Waiting here with you.
And now, forever, I know
All that I wanted
to hold you so close.

The two of them began to dance together as they look into each others eyes. They didn't even notice the whole room looking at them as they were dancing with their partners.

So close to reaching
That famous happy end.
Almost believing
This one's not pretend.
And now you're beside me,
And look how far we've come.

"So far we are. So close…" Draco sung into Crystal's ear softly as she was surprised at his action and blushes softly. Crystal looks at Draco with wide eyes, knowing that she wanted her significant other to sing in her ear and smile at her lovingly.

music break

She began to smile as they began to dance freely with each other. Draco would spin her around happily, twirls her around and then lifts her up in the air as the two of them didn't notice the spotlight was on them. Snape spots them and secretly smiled at the fact that a Gryffindor and a Slytherin were dancing together. Dumbledore was also happy that Crystal and Draco were dancing together happily.

Harry, Hermione, Ron, Fred and George, Angelina, Cho, Cedric, Neville, Ginny and Luna looked at Crystals smiling face as she was having a wonderful time dancing. Pansy, Crabbe and Goyle saw the same thing with Draco and were shocked as well. Pansy was pissed and headed to the drinks.

Oh how could I face the faceless days
If I should lose you now?

Draco slowly brings Crystal back down as they deeply looked into each others eyes. They began to dance again lovingly.

We're so close to reaching
that famous happy end,
And almost believing,
this one's not pretend.
Let's go on dreaming
for we know we are…

Draco dips her and brings her back up gently as they looked at each other once more.

so close,

Draco and Crystal did a circular movement in their right arm.

so close

Then they did another circular movement with the left arm as they got closer.

and still so far…

Draco began to lean in as Crystal closes her eyes until reality hits her and stops them from what they were doing.

"Draco, Im sorry I can't…Your dating Pansy. It's not in my moral to kiss someone else's boyfriend." Crystal told him with a small tear in her eye and began to leave the ball. Draco didn't want that and began to run after her. Harry was about to stop him, but Ron held him back.

"Harry, you have to let your sister handle this. She's old enough to handle her problems on her own." Ron told Harry quietly, knowing that he is right. Harry sighs and looks at the entrance hoping that his little sister will be alright.


At the forest,

Draco spots Crystal at her sanctuary petting the unicorn that she nurtured named Rain with other mythical creatures by her side as the moon was shinning brightly.

"We need to talk about what just happened in the ball." Crystal told him as she petted Rain.

"I know." Draco said to her in agreement as he walks closer to her.

"We are both enemies from different teams." Crystal began to tell him facts about them.

"I know that as well." Draco agrees with her as he walks even closer to her.

"Harry is my brother! Your his rival and your dating Pansy!" Crystal turns around to face him as she was sitting on the ground. Draco grabs her wrist, pulls her up and brought her close to him as Crystal didn't flinch not once. Rain lead all of the creatures to leave them be and began to head back to their homes.

"Yes and No to your factual intel." Draco told Crystal as he looks into her eyes.

"What am I wrong about?" Crystal asks him in curiosity.

"I'm not dating Pansy." Draco answer her question and kisses her passionately. Crystal close her eyes and gave into the kiss as it became more deep and passionate. Crystal felt herself going weak in her legs as Draco held her close to her as they kissed even deeper and increased their passion towards each other. They stopped kissing and looked at each other as they breathed a little heavily and regained their breathing once more.

"I've been wanting to kiss you since third year." Draco said to her as he smiled a bit.

"Listen Crystal, I only dated Pansy on and off again because I thought she's the only girl who is my ally and my friend. Once I've met you, I was fascinated by you. The way you talk, your personality and they way you stand up to me. You've drove me so crazy that I didn't know what the hell to do. I never knew how a girl could be in my system so badly." Draco says to her sincerely.

"What are you trying to say Draco?" Crystal asks Draco as she waits for him to answer.

"I love you Crystal Mae Potter. I want to love and protect you. I want to be with you." Draco professes his love Crystal as she blushes from his words. Crystal kisses him again and released from his lips.

"I love you too Draco. I want to love and protect you as well. I will be happy to be your girlfriend." Crystal confesses to Draco as a small happy tear ran down her cheek. Draco was so happy that he spun Crystal around and landed her back down on the ground.

"What about our friends and family?" Crystal asks him realizing what are they going to do about telling their friends and family about their relationship.

"I'm sure my family will love you, but my friends…." Draco replies to her question as he tried to find the right words about telling his group about Crystal and him.

"Well if it's the girls and the guys…I think they would try to hex you." Crystal said to Draco as she cringes at the next sentence she was about to say.

"As for my brother..He would either curse you or kill you.." Crystal told Draco as she was a little frightened of the thought of her brother hurting Draco.

"Well, we just have to take it one step at a time with our friends and your brother. Then when were ready, we can show our relationship in public.

"I like the sound of that…" Crystal said to Draco as she puts her arms around his neck.

"I'm glad you like the idea." Draco said to Crystal as he held her gently and lovingly.

"We should head back to see if my brother and Cedric passed the second challenge." Crystal told Draco as she looks back at Hogwarts.

"We should, but first." Draco said to her in agreement and kisses her longingly once more and departed their lips.

"Now we can head back." Draco said to Crystal as he grabs her hand and ran back to Hogwarts with Crystal laughing at by his side.

Back at Hogwarts,

The two secret lovers headed back to the great hall and did not missed a thing. They just acted as if nothing happened and headed back to their group of friends.

"Is everything alright now Crystal?" Ginny asks her dearest friend with a worried expression.

"Everything is alright Ginny! I'm ok." Crystal replies to her friend as they watched their friends enjoying themselves.

"Since your back! Lets dance!" Luna said to her friends as she grabs Crystal and Ginny's hands and drag them to the dance floor happily with the others. Ginny and Crystal just laughed happily and began to dance to the Weird Sisters happily. Draco was dragged in by Pansy and began to dance a bit until his back touches no other than Crystal. They both turn around and smile at each other and began to dance happily with the crowd until it was midnight.


After the Yule Ball,

Crystal was back in her room tired and exhausted. She kicked off her heels and was about to flop on her bed until she spots a red rose with a note near her windowsill. She walks over their, picks up the rose, picks up the note and began to read.

A red rose for the most beautiful girl in Hogwarts~

I wish you a goodnight and dream beautiful dreams.

Love

DM

Crystal chuckles a little bit as she smells her red rose and her very close friend before the third challenge began.

"He's cheesy, yet romantic." Crystal thought to herself as she lays on her bed and sighs happily.

"Best. Night. Ever!" Crystal said to herself softly as she began to slowly fall into deep slumber.

AR: I really hope you enjoyed it! I've been trying to figure out how they would get together.
