"Attention, please quiet down" said Head mistres McGonagall
It was December 17th , a Friday and it was dinner time, it had been 3 years sence Harry, Ron and Hermione had deffeted The Dark Lord, Harry was now married to the healer named Tavia that had taken care of him after the war, and had become the best Auror the wizadring world had ever know capturing most tof the rouge death eaters with in his first two years( and much much sainer than mad eye) Ron and Hermione had also gotten married and now had a 3month old girl name Fallin. Ron was off playing Quidditch for the cannons and Hermoine was now the New potions Master.
" Students please quite down i have a very important annocement to make" she said once again.
" guys shut up " said Kole a 6th year gryffindor to her friends, Kairi, Soirse, and cody
" this year the rest of the teaching staff and i have disided we are going to hold a Christmas ball." she finally got out
There was a whole new wave of exited gossiping and once again Prof. McGonagall had to call for silence
" Now, the ball will be on Christmas eve, all grades will be aloud to attend and there will be a train leaving at midnight for those who wish to stay for the ball and go home for christmas, also tomorre there will be a hogsmead trip so that you may buy anything you need. now continue on with your meal and sweet dreams to you all" she said sitting back down.
" Finally i thought we would never have a ball".Said Saoirse Callahan a 5'3 pale girl with long dark blond hair with ice blue eyes and a artistic talant unmatched by anyone in the school.
" I know i'm so exsited, i just hope some one asks me" said Kairi Smith a 5"6 brunett and the smartest of the group
" oh come on Kairi, of course someone will ask you your cute". said Kole summres eating more apple pie in her mouth the 5'8 girl with a slight tan and long blood red hair and yellow eyes, she was the athletic one she was also one of the gryffindor chasers.
" come on guys it just a ball" said Cody Sthal eating his 3rd pork chop of the night 6'3 tan boy with shaggy brown hair, and was also a beater on the gryffindor quidditch team.
" Geez Cody save some for the rest of us" said Kole "why are you eating so much latley"
" He' a growing boy" said Bane, Cody's best friend " he needs to eat"
"come on I'm finished we can go talk about dresses and boys". said Saoirse putting down her fork
" you know i think i skip that if you don't mind" said Cody smirking showing off his abnormaly long canine teeth, his bright green eyes shining
" who says you were invited?" said Saoirse raising her eyebrow.
" Wicked."said Kole finishing her pie " Last one to the dormitory is a rotten dragon egg, see yah Cody" she said getting up and running tword the doors.
" Yeah see ya later" Cody said to koles rapedly retreating back
" no fair you got a head start' yelled Kairi trying to catch up
"come on you girly girls pick it up" she said wizzing by the tables full of students, when she felt someone grab her arm and bring her to a sudden and jerky stop. she turned around to see John willams a Slytherin also in his 6th year and one of the beaters on their quidditach team. He wasn't big as in fat but still bigger than kole about 6'1 with dark hair and eyes and a smirk that could make many people shiver. he had bin pestering and teasing kole sence 1st year kole had ignored it at first but then his cockyness was too much to take so this resulted in many fights between John and kole and in most cody would step in. She looked to see him holding her arm, by now the other girls had caught up and had stopped once they saw the cause for Kole's stop.
"Let go of my arm" said Kole with venom dripping from every word .
" No, i need to ask you something" he said smirking causeing a few 1st years to shiver
By now most of the room had noticied what was happening and awayted yet another fight. Cody had stood up with and angry glint forming in his eye and what seemed to be a growl rising in his throat. He was about to walk over there when Sara's hand shot out and grabbed his arm stopping him where he was.
"Remember what Headmistress said one more fight between you two and your off the team. Kole can handle it and she would be so pissed if you got yourself kicked off." he knew she was right but the beast inside him was screaming at him to go defend her, he ripped his hand from her grasp, more forcfully then needed, and placing it on the table surendering but refusing to sit down. *( i know my spelling is god awful but bear with me please, feel free to correct me!!)
" I have more important things to do that to listen to you." she responded coldly
"Fine i'll make it quick, you are the lucky girl that gets to come with me to the Christmas ball" he said a smirk painting its way on to his face.
" Lucky would not be the word i would use to describe the poor girl that gets stuck in that possision, and no way in bloody hell will it be me." she spat ripping her arm from his grip.
" That's to bad because i'm not giving you a choice" he said putting his face about an inch away from her own, his eyes blazing, his hot breath rushing over his face
" I believe i do have a choice and the choice is no so go pester some other unfortunate girl and leave me the bloody hell alone" she said turning almost wipping him with her braids, walking away with her friends following close behind.
" Fine but if you won't go with me i'll make sure you don't go with anyone else." He yelled at her retreating back slamming his hand down on the table causing the first years once again to flinch, she lifted a hand as if swatting away the comment as she turned out the doors.
A few seconds later John stormed out of the Great Hall his two lackies, tall dark and dumb, quickly fallowing.
The on lookers shook there heads and began chatting and eating once again and Cody finally sat down , now everyone knew that John was all talk and no action so they didn't think much of it.
" Hey guys i'm gonna go see if kole's ok" said Cody to his other house members walking towrd the door.
" Ok see ya later" said Sara one of the other chasers on the team.
"You know he like's her" said kathern as he walked out the great hall doors
"yeah i picked that up after the first few practices this year" said Sara also watching him leave
" ya think he's gonna ask her to the ball" said kathren leaning her head to fallow his figure out the door.
" i don't know, but he should" said sara doing the same but then returning to her dinner.
" yeah " said kathren returning to hers
