I just want to say, if there are faults in the story than sorry for that. Everybody can make mistakes. And ps: it's not that I picked Harry and Ron for the characters and that the genre is Romance/Friendship that they are really not. I just picked them because the story goes about everybody. So don't think wrong about it. I hope you all like it because me and Summergirl worked hard on this story. So if you like it review, if you don't like it, Go away.

Chapter 11
When Harry and Ginny went eating, Cedric ran after Evy to apologize him towards her. He felt really bad about what he had said to her.
"Evy! Evy! Please wait!" He yelled at her. But she kept on walking. "Bugger" He thought. He still kept on running after her.
"Please Evy, just stop!" He yelled back at her. She finally stopped and turned her towards him. "What?" Said Evy annoyed. She felt her really embarrassed.
"I want to apologize Evy, it was really rued of me." Said Cedric. But Evy didn't react at first, she just looked really angry at him.
"I really mean it Evy, if there is something what I can do for making it up." Begged Cedric at her.
"Yes, just leave me alone." Snapped Evy at him. Cedric looked sad at her and took one step further towards her. Evy watched him very closely; she didn't trust him at al.
"I'm really sorry Evy, I was just mad because we always fight with each other. I mean I didn't asked for this, but that doesn't that we don't have to be nice to each other." He said to her. Evy just looked at him and said: "I didn't asked for this either, but you and me, it is just like fire and water, maybe it is the best that you have to search for another partner." She said sadly and embarrassed.
"Oh no no Evy, I don't want somebody else, I mean can we just be friends, our fights have to stop, I think you are a really great girl and I like Ginny and Harry as friends so it would be easier if we are friends you know."He said.
Evy just looked at the ground, She didn't know what to say, maybe he isn't a bad guy at al. Cedric couldn't wait for an answer and teased her a bit to give her a poke in her waist. Evy smiled a bit.
"Do I see a smile on your face?" Smiled Cedric.
Evy flushed a little, she maybe didn't like him very much, but she had to admit he was really handsome.
"All right" She said. "I'll give it a chance" She smiled. Cedric smiled, he was really happy.
"Cool, may I escort you to the great hall for lunch?" He asked her.
"Yeah, why not?" She answered, they both walked towards the great hall, but they didn't said a word to each other. Evy decided to try to be nice to him, not that she really liked him, but she did it because of Harry and Ginny. When Ginny and Harry were lunching, Evy and Cedric came in the great hall. Ginny smiled and said: "Good, you two are back happy I see. "
Evy didn't say anything but she just gave her a smile and CEdric went back at his table of Hufflepuff where his friends were. Evy took a seat next to Ginny and started to eat. The table was loaded with a lot of delicious food. Baked eggs, bacon, bread,...
Ginny was really curious and said: "Well?"
"What?"Answered Evy confused.
"Well what did he say to you?" Asked Ginny.
Evy stopped with eating and said: " Oh, not much, he just said sorry and I accepted his apologize." She started with eating again, but Ginny wasn't finished with her yet.
"And?" She asked.
"That is it, Ginny, you are really curious, you know."Smiled Evy.
"Yes yes, I know, but didn't he ask you for the yuleball? Asked Ginny exited. Harry choked himself and he started to laugh out loud. Evy flushed a little red.
"Uhm no Ginny, what are you talking about?" Asked Evy ashamed. You could see on Ginny's face that she was disappointed.
"Ow, I could be, you know."
"No, Ginny, he didn't asked me and if he did, I would definitely say no." Said Evy and finished her lunch.
"Okay, I get it." Said Ginny.
They finished their lunch and went to their classes.
Three days passed. It was the last day that the students could practice for the wallz.
"Left, right, left, right!" Yelled Professor McGonagall at everyone.
"You are actually doing it great Harry!" Said Ginny friendly at Harry even it wasn't true.
"No, I'm not" Laughed Harry. Ginny laughed to. While they were dancing, Cedric was really curious and asked at Evy.
"So Evy, are you a bit excited about the dance?"
Evy looked up at him, she actually never looked at him because she was afraid that she would stare at him because he was such a handsome man.
"Uhmm, I don't know, I'm not sure if I will go."
Cedric shooked his head. "But you have to go, I mean everyone is going to the ball."
"Yes maybe, but as I said, I'm not really sure of it."
Cedric nodded and gazed at the other way. He was really nervous. Evy wondered why. He looked again at her while still dancing and asked: "I suppose that the reason why you aren't going to the ball is that nobody has yet asked you?" He said carefully. Evy looked a bit shocked at him and flushed a little because she shamed herself.
"No, nobody asked me, but that is not the reason why I'm not going." And she looked immediately at the other way.
"But would you like to be asked?" Asked Cedric curious who was really nervous and stopped with dancing. Evy stopped to and the feeling that she knew why Cedric was asking all those questions. She thought that Cedric would ask her for the ball but that would be a stupid thought. She answered.
"Well, that would be nice, but it also depends who it is of course." And she gave him a little smile. She was a bit nervous to, it was a weird situation because she and Cedric were villains for ever and now he stand here with a propose, that was what Evy thought.
"Well, because I was I was thinking that maybe if you would like and want of course..." He couldn't end his phrase because someone yelled at Evy. It was Cormac McLaggen. Also a very handsome man, but he was one of Gryffindor. He was well known as the womanizer of the school, but Evy was blind.
"Oh hey Cormac." Said Evy shy. Cedric gave him just a nod. He really didn't like him because Cormac was just a jerk to everyone.
"Hey, I was wondering if you already had someone for the ball?" Asked Cormac polite at her.
Evy flushed again. "No." She said annoyed.
"Well, that is great, because I was wondering if you like to go to the ball with me?" He asked at her.
Evy couldn't believe it and smiled very hard.
"Yes, yes of course I want to go with you." She almost yelled it at him. Cormac gave gave one of his sexiest smiles and said: "Great, than I will see you over there, goodbye gorgeous." He said to her. He gave Cedric a short nod and left the hall. Cedric was really frustrated; he almost could smash him on the floor. He really wanted to ask Evy for the ball, but his date was taking away in front of him. He looked at Evy, he couldn't believe that she was so happy that Cormac asked her. Evy turned her at Cedric and said happy:
"Well, I have a date, how cool is that?" She forgot everything, even her fights with Cedric.
"Yeah great" He answered with sarcasm.
"So what did you wanted to ask?" She asked.
"Uhmm..."He tooked his bag and putted his jacket on. "It doesn't matter, uhm I have to go right now, enjoy." He said to her with a short smile and left the hall. Evy thought that Cedric behaved strange, but she decided to be happy and went to Ginny and Harry.
"Well well, why are you so happy?" Smiled Ginny.
"You will not believe it." She said, Cormac just asked me to be his date, cool huh?" and she jumped.
Ginny's smile fades away. Harry tooked his stuff, he knew that Ginny wasn't happy with this. Cormac was a womanizer and everyone knew that, except Evy."
"Uhm, I'm going to Cedric. He just sends me a message."
Ginny and Evy nodded.
"Why aren't you smiling anymore?" Asked Evy at Ginny.
"Oh, no nothing, I just hoped that someone else would ask you." She said while looking down.
"Let me guess, Cedric?" Said Evy sarcastic while rolling her eyes.
"Yeah, why not? I mean you two are so perfect together." Said Ginny at Evy. It was like she was almost begging to Evy. Evy flushed a little. She actually liked Cedric a bit, but of course she didn't want to share it with someone.
"Ginny,...really, it is really cute of you but Cedric and me? Never going to happen!, but when we were dancing it looked like he wanted to ask me for the ball."
There was a moment of excitement.
"Really? And why didn't you said yes!" Jumped Ginny.
"Because he didn't ask it, and Cormac asked me first."
"Ow." Said Ginny."That is a shame, but really my predictions will come out." Smiled Ginny at Evy.
"And that is?" Asked Evy.
"You and Cedric, you two will definitely become a couple!"
Evy had to laugh out loud.
"Come here gypsy, let's go to the girls, I'm really excited what they will say when they hear that I'm going to the ball with Cormac."
Ginny knew that the girls wouldn't like it, but she decided to keep her mouth shut for a while. While they were walking to the girls, a boy passed them. He was really handsome. Evy watched a little at the boy. She could swear that he looked a bit like Cedric.
"Hey Ginny!" Yelled the boy at Ginny. They both stopped and turned around. The boy walked towards them.
"Hey Ginny, I was wondering if you already had someone for the ball?"
Ginny was a bit surprised.
"Uhmm, no I don't have anyone yet." She answered.
They boy smiled.
"Cool, well do you want to go with me then?"He asked self assured. Ginny looked at Evy and Evy gave her a big poke to answer.
"Yes! Yes yes, of course." She smiled nervous at him.
"Cool!, I see you then!" And he gave her a kiss on her hand and went to his friends. Ginny and Evy started to laugh.
"Yeah Ginny, we both got a date, and by the way who is this guy? Jesus he is gift for this world, sooo handsome!" Asked Evy curious.
"Oh my god, I'm surprised that you don't know. That's Jeremy, he is the brother of Cedric, he is one year younger than Cedric." Answered Ginny.
Evy's mouth felt open, she couldn't believe that Cedric had a brother.
"Well, you are lucky, he is really cute Ginny, and maybe he is the lucky guy for you." Winked Evy at her.
Ginny poked her. "No Evy, not again." Evy started laughing. They both went to the common room of Gryffindor to tell the great news to the girls.
Harry went to Cedric, because Cedric sended a worried message. Harry had a surmise that it had to deal with Evy and Cormac. Harry was walking to the boys toilet. When he went in he saw Cedric walking around and sometimes he gave the wall a big punch.
"How, how, calm down, what's the matter?" Asked Harry worried.
"Jesus, really I almost punched that guy!" He yelled.
"Let me guess, Cormac?"
"Yeah! I almost asked Evy out for the ball and of course our dear Cormac had asked her first!"
Harry raised one eyebrow up and said. "Cedric, I don't want to hurt you, but I think if you had asked her, she probably have said no…"
Cedric looked mad and disappointed at Harry. "How would you know? Evy and I, we have a better connection now."
"Please Cedric, to have a connection with Evy you'll have to do more than that." Said Harry, he didn't want to hurt Cedric, but it was truth. Cedric looked mad.
"Thank you Harry, for giving me hope." He said sarcastic.
Harry felt himself guilty.
" I didn't mean like that, I mean that when you want to have a band with Evy, she needs trust and not some words or phrases, she is different." He said to Cedric.
Cedric was leaning above the sink, while looking into the mirror.
"Yeah she is different" He whispered.
Harry went to him and gave him a tap on his shoulder.
"Hey man, you can still ask your ex, cho, I mean okay she is your ex, but all of the girls are occupied."He said.
Cedric turned around and said. "I don't know, if I go with her, she will think there is hope between her and me and it really isn't. Besides with who are you going to the ball?" Cedric asked.
Harry took a deep breath. "I'm going with Parvatti Patil."
Cedric shooked his head. "I thought you were going to ask Ginny?"
"Yes, I tried, but it looked like she definitely didn't want to have a date, and I think I didn't had the courage to ask her."
Cedric was trying not to laugh and said."Doesn't mind Harry, Parvatti is also cool."
Harry smiled a bit. "So…are you going to ask Cho?" Asked Harry.
"I think so, I don't have a choice, I am going to ask her now."
Harry nodded. They both left the toilet room.
One day passed. It was the final day where everyone was looking out for. The ball started at eight o clock in the evening. It was now six o clock and all the girls of Gryffindor were dressing them up. Evy was doing the other girls make up and Ginny did the hair. They were laughing and gossiping about everything.
"Are you exited?" Asked Angelina at Ginny.
"Yes of course, I've got an amazing date and an amazing dress." Angelina smiled. She saw that Evy wasn't dressed up.
"Evy, why aren't you dressed up, the ball begins over an half hour."
"Yeah I know, I doubt to go actually, I will look very stupid." She said sadly. Ginny stood up and said."Oh no way lady, you will put that dress on and you will go to the ball!"
She pulled on Evy's arm and pushed her to her dress.
"Come on girl, I will do your make up." Said Ginny exited. Evy smiled and putted her dress on.
"Ginny." Said Angelina. " I will take care of her, you have to be with your date about 10 minutes."
"Yeah that's right, Evy do you mind?"Asked Ginny.
"Get your ass out of here girl." Laughed Evy.
Ginny tooked her purse and left the room. Angelina took some make up and helped Evy.
Twenty minutes later Cedric and Harry were waiting on their dates in the hall. Everybody was so excited and nervous. The people were checking each other dresses and tuxedos. It was like everyone was in Hollywood. Ginny came in the hall together with Jeremy. They both looked very stunning and they seemed to have fun. Harry looked very jealous at them and said to Cedric.
"Is that your brother over there with Ginny?"
"I think so, that is weird." Answered Cedric. Harry looked mad at Jeremy, even he knew that he was Cedric's brother. On that moment came Cho and Parvatti towards them.
"Hi honey." Said Cho sweet and she gave him a kiss on his cheek. Cedric didn't like it at all.
"Cho, please don't call me like that."
But Cho kept on smiling.
"Are you exited?" Asked Parvati at him.
"Yeah yeah." He said to her while he was looking at Ginny and Jeremy.
"I thought she was going alone." He thought. On that moment Professor McGonagall came towards them.
"Boys boys, go to the door please. The champions and their dates have to open the ball." She said over exited.
Harry and Cedric looked annoyed at each other. This was not what they wanted. They took their dates towards the door. Fleur and Kruml were also there with their dates. Harry was surprised that Viktor was with Hermoine. She waved at Harry and said. "Isn't this exiting?" Harry nodded. "I guess so."
Cedric gave Harry a tick and he looked.
"Where is Evy?"He asked. Harry looked around but he didn't saw Evy.
"I don't see her either. " He said. Cedric was worried, he was scared that Cormac would dumped her.
"Where would she be?" He wondered. Cho interrupted Cedric and Harry. "Oh please, what the hell have you with that bitch, no one likes her."
Cedric turned at Cho. "Cho would you please shut up?"
Harry started to laugh. Cho looked mad at him.
Professor McGonagall yelled at the champions. "Come on champions, stand in your position, we are going to start about 5 minutes. When we call you, you enter the great hall and take your position and dance."
She entered the Hall and closed the door. You could hear Professor Dumbledore gave his speech. About 3 minutes later Professor Dumbledore yelled. "Champions, please enter!"
The door went open and the champions entered. The hall was so beautiful. It was discovered with glitter and ice. When the champions were on the dance floor. Cedric took Cho's waist and Harry tooked Parvatti's waist. The music started and the champs started to dance. It was really uncomfortable because Cedric and Harry didn't like their dates very well. Parvatti was a good girl, but she always talked a lot about everything. All the students started to dance with them. Cedric wished that the music stopped but it didn't. He was still searching after Evy and finally he saw Cormac who was desperate. The reason was probably because Evy wasn't here. The music stopped and everyone gave to orkest a big applause.
"Uhm, do you want something to drink?" Asked Cedric at Cho.
"Yes, please, but water of course, I'm on a diet." She smiled at him. Cedric rolled his eyes and gave Harry a sign that he went to the bar. Harry nodded and followed him.
"Jesus, I'm dying if I stay with her one more minute." Said Cedric annoyed and he drank a beer.
"Yeah me to, Parvatti can't keep her mouth shut for a minute, it is annoying." Said Harry and took a sip of his beer. When their glass was empty Ginny came in their direction.
"Boys, boys, do you know where Evy is?" Panicked Ginny.
Harry and Cedric looked confused at each other.
"Uhmm, actually we thought that you would know where she was." Said Harry.
"Well, I don't" Said Ginny. "I know that Angelina was dressing her up, but that is all and Cormac is nagging to me".
On that moment Angelina passed them with George Weasley. Ginny grabbed her and asked.
"Hey, do you know where Evy is?"
Angelina looked confused at her and said:
"How how, calm down, she is over there." And she pointed at the big door of the hall and there she stood. She looked very shy, which was unusual for her. Everyone looked at her. She wore a purple long dress with glitters. A big split on her leg and she had a beautiful neckline. She wearied high heels and had a diamond purse. Her hair was curled. No wonder that everyone stared at her. She looked like a princess.
"Oh my god, Evy, you look so beautiful, I almost have to cry!" Yelled Ginny at her and hugged her. "I'm so glad that you came!"
"Yeah, it is alright Ginny." And she smiled at her.
Cormac came in their direction.
"Thank God you came, and you look fabulous, like always of course, you and me are going to have a lot of fun tonight!" He said and he kissed her hand. Evy flushed a little and smiled.
"Eww.."Said Ginny with disgust."Really Evy, you can't be serious, not with him."
She just said it while he could hear everything. That guy must be removed.
"Uhmm, Ginny, we didn't asked your permission, so don't you have other things to do, like playing with you barbiedolls or something else?" Said Cormac unfriendly to Ginny.
Ginny's mouth fell open, she knew that ever would have a fight with him, but now?
"Oww.., yes I would love to play with my dolls, but first I have to look after my best friend that she wouldn't start a relationship with a first class jerk!" She said with a lot of sarcasm, she smiled at him sneaky.
Cormac was red because he was so angry and wanted to say something but Evy interrupted their fight.
"Guys, guys please, don't fight, Cormac come on let's dance." She took his hand and she leaded him to the dance floor.
Cedric and Harry couldn't believe it, was that Evy?
Ginny went back to them, she was really angry.
"I hate that guy, I don't get what she sees in him."
"Yeah me to" Said Cedric mad, while watching Evy and Cormac dancing.
"Hey Ginny, uhm so where is your date?" Harry asked, he changed the subject.
"I don't know actually, I think he went to get a drink, but I have to get rid of that stupid Cormac, he is not someone for her."She said still angry.
"Oww, okay, would you like to dance with me?" He asked directly at Ginny. He didn't care what Jeremy would think, he liked Ginny and that is all what matters. Ginny was a bit surprised, because he wasn't her date. Cedric was surprised to, he hadn't expect of him that he would dare to ask her.
"Okay, uhm, I will go back to Cho, because she is looking pissed off." He said to them, but actually he wanted to leave them alone.
"Yeah why not." She answered but she was still surprised. Harry took her hand and they went to the dance floor. They were dancing and they had a lot of fun.
The song ended and the next song followed. Everyone freaked out and dance the whole night away. Cedric kept on looking at Evy while he was dancing with Cho.
"Evy looks so beautiful." He thought.
"Hey Cedric, I'm standing right here you know, what did you asked me out actually if you are looking at that slut?" Cho said annoyed.
Cedric rolled his eyes. "Please Cho, not now."
"Why not? You know what? I don't care what you think as long as you and me are going to be the queen and king of the ball, I'm happy."
Cedric looked at Cho and shook his head.
"But I don't want to be the king."
"Well, Cedric you are the best-looking boy of Hogwarts, so…"She said.
The music turned louder. Professor McGonagall didn't like at all, but nobody cared. Ginny went after her dance with Harry at Evy and Cormac who went for a drink.
"So Evy, are you enjoying it, do you have regret that you came?" She asked, while drinking some punch.
"Great! Not at all, I have a lot of fun, and you? I saw that you had a great time… with Harry." She giggled and gave her a wink.
Ginny shook with her head no.
"Evy, no just no, we are just friends, really."
Evy laughed. "Yeah right"
"And besides, Cedric can't take his eyes of you" Ginny winked at Evy.
"Like I said Ginny, I don't care, he is just a guy that thinks…"
Cormac interrupted their conversation.
"Cedric? Cedric Diggory? Come on Ginny, he is a big loser, he thinks he is the popular boy of the school, but he isn't."
Ginny's face turned red again."Jesus Cormac, you keep on talking but we actually can't hear you."
Cormac wanted to say something but the music stopped because Professor McGonagall was going to say something to everyone.
"Hello everyone! The ball will continue but of course we need a king and queen of the ball."
You could hear everyone whispering.
"Students, please be quiet!"Professor yelled. "I've got two names, the jury have decided! I can see that they are two students of our school!" She really kept the audience curious.
"The king and queen of the ball are…."
Cormac and Cho already stepped towards Professor McGonagall.
"Cedric Diggory and Evy Potter!"
Everyone gave them a big applause. Nobody could believe it and were looking at them. The spotlight turned at them. Cedric did not what to do and he looked at Harry.
"Go! Go man, you've won."Said Harry, while he gave Cedric a push towards Professor McGonagall.
Evy was also shocked. She turned around and wanted to run but Ginny grabbed her and said:
"Oh no lady, you are not ruining my predictions, you will now go to him, right now!" She was actually more commanding Evy.
"Oookkaay, I think." Said Evy nervous. Ginny pushed her. And she walked very slowly towards Professor McGonagall. Everyone looked at her. When she was there, the Professor putted a crown on her head. This was such a weird moment, she didn't want this and certainly not with Cedric. He had also a crown on his head. His face was red because he didn't what to do. They both didn't gave each other a look. They hoped that it would end quickly.
"Congratulations!" Yelled Professor McGonagall. Everyone kept on applausing.
"Now, give the King and queen some space on the dance floor" She yelled at them. Cedric and Evy were surprised in a negative way and yelled both at Professor McGonagall.
"What?"
Evy wanted to run away but everyone were looking at them, so it was impossible.
"Ow no, not again you two, now get on the dance floor and dance!" She said annoyed at them.
they both walked slowly at the dance floor and turned to each other. This was the first time that they looked at each other. Evy didn't like to look at him because it was so embarrassment but she could not deny that Cedric looked hot. His hair was stunning and his chest looked gorgeous in his tuxedo. Cedric, who also looked at her, was a bit embarrassed either, but also a bit happy. He dreamed of going to the ball with her and here he was with Evy as king and queen. He couldn't take his eyes of her.
The band started to play a slow song, a romantic song of course.
"Oh my god, this can't be true" Thought Evy. She really didn't want to dance with him. She looked at Ginny who was putting her thumbs up to Evy. Cedric gave his hand. He was sweating a bit. He was afraid that Evy would ignore it but Evy looked at his hand and decided to put her hand in his, but he could see that she was rolling with her eyes. Some of the audience saw and had to giggle. Cedric flushed red. He took Evy's waist and started to dance but they didn't gave each other a look. Evy looked around and saw Cho looking at her with anger. Of course she wanted to have this crown and this dance with Cedric. The song went intense and Cedric turned her around. Evy didn't like it anymore and she gave behind Cedric's back a sign to Ginny that she was done with it. But Ginny gave her a sign back that she had to hold on. Harry had to laugh. He stood beside Ginny.
"This is not funny Harry, really she needs to hold on, I know she likes it, she is just so stubbing." Whispered Ginny at him.
"No, I think she doesn't, really Ginny, you can't force her."
"I'm not forcing her, I'm just helping her, come on she like him.""I know that, because I'm her best friend and you haven't seen her looking at him. I'm convinced that she thinks he is handsome." Said Ginny confident.
"Okaaayyy…"Said Harry, he decided to shut up about the Cedric and Evy thing.
Cedric couldn't help it anymore, he decided to start a subject with her.
"So, are you enjoying the ball so far?"
Evy was surprised that he had to courage to ask something while everyone was looking.
"Yes, I am, do you?"
"Of course" He answered back, it was the only think what he could say. They were both really shy.
Everyone were looking at them and Evy could swear that they were all gossiping about her and Cedric, why wouldn't they? They both hated each other for years and now they were both sharing the dance floor with each other. Evy just closed her eyes and was hoping that it would end quickly.
One minute later the music stopped. Evy was relieved and took a step backwards. They looked one second at each other and then looked away. Everyone gave them an applause.
"How cute are they together! Aren't they?" Yelled Professor McGonagall. Cedric and Evy's face went red.
"Now everyone please join them on the dance floor."
"Oh no" Thought Cedric and Evy at the same time. Everyone went on the dance floor again and the music started. Ginny went with Jeremy on the dance floor and pushed Evy to Cedric.
"Hey!" Said Evy annoyed at her.
Ginny smiled.
"I suppose we have to dance again" She said to Cedric.
"I guess so" He answered. This was so weird. Evy gave her hand of her self. She just wanted to get rid of this. Cedric took it. They were dancing again.
Ginny was watching at them. They were also dancing. Jeremy thought it was a bit annoying.
"Do you always look out for them?"He said.
Ginny turned her head to him.
"Ow sorry Jeremy, well I'm trying to couple them actually, it is sort of a mission of me." She winked at him while smiling. She turned her head back at Evy and Cedric.
"Really? Well I know that my brother does see something in her but she definitely isn't."
Ginny looked back at him.
"Well, it is hard to say, Evy is a tough girl you know, so she doesn't express her feelings, that's the way how she is. But if you know her well, you can see some things at her that can betray her. She is just afraid you know."
"Afraid of what?" Asked Jeremy curious.
"Ow, I can't tell you, it is a secret between me and her." Said Ginny serious.
"Ah like that, so we have secrets huh?" He teased her. Ginny just smiled.
"So" He continued. "You and Harry? Do you two have something?" He asked carefully.
Ginny shooked her head.
"Uhm, huh?"
"Yeah, you know what I mean, I heard a lot about you two, like that you both went out with each other?"
"Yes, but we are just friends" Answered Ginny, she hated this subject.
"Really?" Said Jeremy. "Well I heard of Cho that you both almost kissed together?"
"Of course she did." Said Ginny mad. She hated Cho a lot. In the best they were good friends but they friendship when Cho started gossiping about Evy.
"Look Jeremy, I don't want to be mean but actually it isn't your business, we are just friends" Said Ginny annoyed.
"Ow okay, I mean I just wanted to know if you two had something because I actually wanted to ask you out for a dinner."
Ginny looked up. She was now so mad at herself because she was so rued.
"Ow I'm sorry Jeremy, I didn't mean it like that, it is just I'm so sick of it that everyone asks the same question at me, but I want to go out with you for a dinner."
Jeremy smiled. He was a attractive boy.
"Cool, tomorrow in the leaky cauldron?"
"Yes yes of course." Answered Ginny. She was hoping that Harry ever would ask her out, but she couldn't wait forever.
Cedric and Evy were quiet. Ginny and Jeremy were dancing beside them. Ginny whispered at Evy.
"Hey Evy, psst psst."
Evy's head turned at her. "What?"
"I've got a date with Jeremy tomorrow." She said exited.
"Great Ginny, really great." Whispered Evy back at her while she pointed with her eyes to Cedric that she wanted to stop.
"Hey Evy what is wrong with your eyes?" Said Ginny to her. She probably didn't get the point of Evy.
"Never mind" Said Evy back. Cedric was sweating because he was really shy. He decided to give her a compliment.
"Uhm…You look very beautiful tonight."
Evy looked up, she was a bit surprised.
"Okay that was maybe too nice" Thought Cedric.
Ginny was eavesdropping and smiled big when she heard what Cedric said. She said happy to Jeremy.
"Oh my god did you heard that?"
Cedric and Evy could hear her and looked at her.
"Heard what?" Asked Jeremy.
"Ow, well the music, beautiful huh?" Said Ginny, she knew that they have heard it.
Evy turned back at Cedric and said:
"And you look very fashion, I think." Said Evy nervous. She didn't knew what to say. But actually she thought he was very attractive, but she didn't want to give him a compliment. Cedric had to laugh a bit because of what she said. It was weird what she said.
"What?" Asked Evy serious, she looked behind her to see what was funny.
"Ow, nothing, I thought it was funny of what you said."
"Really?" Asked Evy, she looked at the floor because her face went red.
"It's okay, it was funny, it is something what I like about you." He said serious and he looked at her. Evy turned her head at the other way.
"Uhm, I think we are done with dancing, your date is waiting for you, bye." She said quickly and she went to Cormac who was furious.
"Man, that is guy is such a loser, I don't get why the jury picked him as king of the ball." Complained Cormac.
"Me either, but I don't want to think about it tonight I just want to have some fun." Said Evy relieved.
"Fun? How can there be fun if I don't have the crown?" Said Cormac. He was really angry at Cedric because he have won it.
"What is the deal anyway? Why is it so important?" Said Evy annoyed. She really liked Cormac but his behavior was ridiculous.
"Don't you get it, if I have the crown, it means that I'm more popular than him, but now he have it, I'm going to take it from him." He said mad and he went to Cedric, who was standing at the bar with Harry.
Evy's mouth fell open, she couldn't believe that Cormac was so jealous on Cedric. She went after Cormac to stop him, but he didn't listen. Ginny saw that there was a problem so she followed them.
"Psst Evy, what is the problem?" She asked at Evy.
"Cormac is pissed off because Cedric won the crown instead of him."
"What a baby." Answered Ginny.
"I know"
Cormac stood right in front of Cedric.
"So which fool decided to give you the crown?" He said mad to Cedric.
Cedric and Harry looked at him. They had no idea what Cormac's problem was.
"What is your problem Cormac?" Said Cedric annoyed while he was rolling with his eyes.
"You've heard it, you don't deserve the crown, I deserve it, now give it to me." Said Cormac angry and he took one step closer to Cedric.
"Or what else?" Said Cedric, he put his glass of beer on the bar and took also one step closer to him. Harry saw that this was not good so he decided to pull Cedric away from Cormac.
"Hey Cedric just let him, he is a jerk."
"Yeah Cedric, he don't do it, that is what he wants, that you smack him." Said Ginny and she stood next to him.
"Yeah, that is true, he doesn't deserve it, here you get what you want, here is your stupid crown, I don't want it." Said Cedric angry and he pushed his crown to Cormac.
"See, it wasn't that difficult" Smiled Cormac and he putted the crown on his head. Cedric had to keep himself calm down so he drank his whole glass of beer empty.
"Come Evy, now we can have some fun" Said Cormac to her.
But Evy didn't move, she didn't like Cedric that much but she fell herself quilty, what Cormac did was so lame.
"Evy?" Repeated Cormac, he was waiting when she was following him. Ginny looked at Evy. She hoped that Evy wouldn't follow him. On that moment Evy turned around towards Cormac and said:
"Are you serious dude? You did this all because of a stupid crown?"
Ginny, Harry and Cedric looked surprised at Evy. Ginny smiled big and whispered to Harry and Cedric:
"Watch this"
Cormac's face turned red.
"What do you mean, the ball is all about the crown, I bet that everyone wants it, you wanted it to, don't you?" Said Cormac superficial.
Evy was shocked that this words came from Cormac's mouth. Now she understand why everyone thought he was a jerk.
"No, I don't, I didn't even know that I was going to win it, but you can have mine too, first I thought you were kind but now I see, Ginny is right, you are a first class jerk." Said Evy, she always was a tough one.
Everyone started to laugh. Cormac's face turned more red.
"Ow yeah?" He said."Well maybe I'm a jerk, but you are a first class bitch! Everyone says it about you, It is just that you are Harry's sister that everyone is kind to you, I bet that the jury made you as queen of the ball just for a joke." Laughed Cormac at her.
Everyone was shocked of what he said. This was so mean of him. Cedric and Harry started to get angry but Ginny told them to calm down. Evy showed no expression, that is the way how she is. But then she started to laugh to. Cormac stopped. He didn't understand why she wasn't mad.
"Okay Cormac, it is true, I'm a first class bitch, but do I care? No I don't. But remember this, Cedric and I have won the crown, you didn't." She gave him a smile while she was turning her crown around her finger.
Everyone started to laugh again and was making noises. Cormac was so angry; he decided to leave the hall. Everyone gave Evy a big applause. Ginny gave Evy a big hug.
"I knew that you would see what for a guy he was." She said relieved.
Evy smiled.
"Well I still think he is cute, but his reaction was lame." Answered Evy.
"Yeah it definitely was, now you can hang out with us girl"
"Yeah, but I am going to get something to drink, I'm thirsty, wait here." Said Evy.
"Okay".
Harry went to Ginny.
"So so, what a night huh?" Said Harry to her.
"Yeah, I'm so glad that she finally sees what a jerk he is."
"Yes, I still can't believe that he made such a fuss about a crown."
"Yeah me to, lucky that I said to the jury to not pick him because he is such a jerk. He just doesn't deserve it." Said Ginny and she winked at him.
Harry looked confused.
"Since when do you have such of influence on the jury?" He said to her.
"Well, I wasn't really honest actually, well I'm part of the jury, and Professor McGonagall asked me to be one of the jury because I know a lot of people of this school." She said serious.
"Really? And why didn't you tell us about it?"Asked Harry confused.
"Well, good question huh, what do you think? Than would Evy know that I chose her and Cedric, yeah I know I'm a genius." Smile Ginny and she took a piece of cake.
"So, I guess you convinced the other to choose Evy and Cedric either to?"
" Sort of it, I just said to them that the crowd would be surprised and curious if we chose Evy and Cedric, they were immediately convinced, and they thought also that there was something going on between them." Laughed Ginny.
Harry started to laugh to.
"Damn, you are a genius, I don't know how you did it, but you did. I hope for you that Evy would never found out."
"No no, nobody knows who the jury is you know, I told you that I would do anything to get those two together." Smiled Ginny.
"I can see that, so did you enjoy the night with your partner?" Asked Harry curious.
Ginny's smile fade away.
"What does he care?" She thought, she didn't know why she was now a bit mad on him.
"Yes we did, he is really kind, and we are going on a date tomorrow." She said happy. She didn't know why she said that to him, to make him jealous?
"No, that couldn't be." She thought.
"Ow, good for you." He said.
Ginny nodded.
"I've got to go now Harry, bye."
She went to Evy. Harry was disappointed, he lost his chance and it was his entire fault.
At the end of the ball, Evy and Ginny went to the stairs. They were laughing.
"So so" Said Ginny. "How was it? Dancing with Cedric?"
Evy looked away.
"Good, it was just a dance." She said.
Ginny started to giggling.
"Ow, Evy, you like him, I can see it, you are looking away, I know you for years." Teased Ginny.
Evy turned toward Ginny and denied.
"I'm not lying Ginny."
Ginny laughed.
"You are so in the denial faze girl,"
Evy rolled with her eyes.
" Okay okay, than just admit he is good-looking boy."And she started to poke her. Evy had to laugh out loud.
"Okay okay stop!" She yelled with tears in her eyes because of laughing.
On that moment Cedric and Harry came in their direction, Ginny saw it but she decided to not warn Evy. She thought it was the perfect moment that Cedric would hear what Evy really thinks of him.
"Well?" Saidn Ginny. "I'm listening."
Evy laughed again.
"Okay okay, I admit that he have something." Said Evy shy.
"No no that is not enough girl, why are you so stubbing? You can tell it to me, there is no one here." She almost had to laugh when she said that while Cedric and Harry actually stood behind them. They both looked confused.
"Yeah okay, he is handsome, now you heard it, are you now happy?" Said Evy while she was smiling.
Ginny couldn't help it anymore, she started to laugh out loud.
"What?" said Evy.
Ginny pointed to Cedric and Harry who stood behind them.
"No please don't let it be them." Thought Evy. She turned around and she saw Cedric and Harry. Harry started to laugh.
"Hey Evy." He said while he was laughing.
"Funny Harry, really." Said Evy mad. She didn't gave dare to look at Cedric.
"Uhm, Ginny, I think we've got to go." She said and she grabbed her arm. When they were in the next hall, Evy had to laugh a bit.
"Ginny, I'm maybe laughing now, but actually it wasn't funny, why didn't you say anything?"
"Ow, I did it for your own good; you have to thank me, now Cedric knows that you actually like him." Giggled Ginny.
"That is so mean, and I didn't said that I liked him, I just said that he is handsome that's all." Said Evy serious.
"Ow no no, you are so denying and I don't understand why, it is okay to express your feelings Evy." Giggled Ginny.
"I don't like him Ginny, ok? And if I did like him than you know why I can't express my feelings." Said Evy.
They were still walking towards their room.
"Yeah I know why, but maybe if you talk with him about it." Said Ginny.
Evy rolled her eyes.
"Ginny, a thousand times, I don't like him, and I can't talk about it with him, it is our secret, okay?" Said Evy serious.
"Yeah yeah, you know that I wouldn't say to anyone, but still, you like him, I can read it on your face." Said Ginny, she was changing the subject.
Evy rolled her eyes and poked her.
"I'm not going to discuss with you, because you are always right." Said Evy.
Ginny laughed.
"Of course I am."
They went to their bedrooms and went to sleep.
