~ The Day of the Dance ~
Ginny and Hermione waved bye to Ron and Harry. They stepped into a girl's dress store in Hogsmeade called Magical Dance Dresses. A young woman, scrolling down on a small piece of parchment was standing behind the counter.
" Oh welcome to Magical," greeted the young woman. She wore a nametag with the name " Ashley" on it. " I suppose your looking for a dress for the muggle dance at Hogwarts." The girls nodded, warmed by Ashley's kind personality. The Magical store's clerk told them to look around and call her when they needed any help. Hermione nodded her thanks and they shuffled to the dresses.
It had been only a few minutes of wandering when Hermione dashed off to her perfect dress. She held it up for Ginny's inspection. The dress was really pretty, it was a strapless soft blue, and the cloth was satin. It had a light purplish tinge, the length reached down to her ankles (well it was really, the dress was folding itself to make it fit).
" Wow, it looks really good," said Ginny.
" Do you think Ron will like it?" replied Hermione. She gave a short gasp and covered her mouth.
" Ah Ha! You do like Ron!" exclaimed Ginny. " Yep, he'll like it…especially with you wearing it. (Hermione sticks out her tongue). You should try it on."
" Well the dress did all the measurements and all so I don't think I need to," said Hermione. "Let's look for your dress."
~ An Hour Later ~
"Hey Harry," called out Ginny. Everyone was carrying mysterious bulky bags for the tonight's dance. " Come on guys, lets go back the castle, the dance is in three hours! And we need to get ready."
" Hang on, I think Ron has something to ask Hermione," chuckled Harry. Both Ron and Hermione turned red. Ron stepped up to Hermione. Ginny and Harry gave him an encouraging smile.
" Eh…yeah…Hermione will you go with the dance with me?" asked Ron super fast. It toke a second for Hermione to figure out what he was saying; when she did, she broke into a grin. Almost like she was speechless, she nodded. " God Thank you! I've always wanted to ask you."
" Okay guys, Ron ask Hermione to go, now can we go, us girls need to look good for you guys," exclaimed Ginny. Everyone laughed and raced to Hogwarts.
~ Girls' Dormitory ~
Hermione couldn't help but fidget while Ginny put up her hair. Her hair wasn't use to be put up. Ginny had been putting up her hair in two little buns on each side of her head, pinned down by blue and purple butterfly and flower clips. Hermione had to admit it looked really nice. Ginny had used her wand to add some sparkling effect on her clips.
" Now here comes the make-up!" grinned her red head friend. A soft brush shadowed her eyes with soft purple, her lips became light crimson, and soft lily pink tinged her cheeks. " You're done! What till Ron sees this, he'll be knocked off his rocker! I wouldn't be surprised if everyone turned to look at you." Hermione shook her head and the two teenage girls left the quiet dormitory.
~
Ron and Harry stood in the Gryffindor common room. Everyone else had already left for the dance. The girls' dormitory final opened revealing a pretty girl, wearing a lovely dress with her hair down up in sparkling butterfly clips. Ron had his mouth open Harry nudged him. The Weasley clamped his mouth shut, he walked to the stairway, meeting his date/crush/best friend (A/N: Sorry guys, couldn't resist hehe). He held out his arm, like a formal gentleman taking his lady to the ball. Hermione covered her mouthed with a gloved hand and accepted his arm.
" Where's Ginny?" asked Harry.
" Coming down right now," said a familiar voice. Harry whirled around to face a beautiful angel, his angel. Ginny wore a creamy pink dress, like Hermione's it was strapless but had two lengths of cloth on her arms. The dress was longer then the blue one, ending with matching pink strap shoes. Her flaming red hair was done up into a bun with curled tendrils of hair framing her face. The thing that caught Harry was the necklace clasped around Ginny's neck. It was a pale pink heart made of smooth pink jade, it was a gift for her birthday present from him. " Are you just going to stare at me all night, come on, we gotta go to the dance."
" Hang on, I have one more addition," said Harry. Behind him, Harry produced a pale pink lily with the stem cut short. Harry carefully placed it onto her bun and waved his wand on it so it would stay on. " Now we can go."
~
The Great Hall was bursting with light, the dance was complete with muggle music and disco ball. Everyone was chatting around, wearing exquisite clothing. Harry glanced at Ginny, she was smiling, her arm entwined with his.
" Wow, you guys look really cute together," commented Cho Chang. She was with her current boyfriend, a Ravenclaw boy named Jon. The four of them exchanged polite words before seating themselves down at tables. Harry couldn't believe it, all this planning during weekends and lunch was finally paying off, except for the Slytherins of course.
Ginny was far from the girl she was that frightful night, she felt content and safe. She glanced over at the two Slytherin villains, Draco and Michelin. They looked perfect together, Draco clothed in a dark black suit and Michelin in a short black greenish dress; Ginny shivered, they looked like they had been brewing a lot of evil or something. Ginny focused her attention on the headmaster who was giving a small lecture on the festivities. Professor Dumbledore ended with a final word and waved his wand, producing the special food for the occasion.
~
The food had been delicious and a lot had been stuffed into now full stomachs. Fast music now flooded the dance floor. Couples and friends rallied on to the dance floor, moving around like crazy. Ginny and Hermione had to laugh at Harry and Ron, who had no clue of their actions. The two girls were pulled onto the dance floor, dancing as wildly as their dates.
" Okay, this song is for all you love birds," said the DJ (no one had a clue who he was). Soft glow of blue lighted the room. Ginny and Harry stepped onto the dance floor, instantly melting together as the song played. It was a song they had heard before, Ginny's favorite love song.
~ My Everything ~
The loneliness of nights alone
the search for strength to carry on
my every hope has seemed to die
my eyes had no more tears to cry
then like the sun shining up above
you surrounded me with your endless love
Coz all the things I couldn't see are now so clear to me
You are my everything
Nothing your love won't bring
My life is yours alone
The only love I've ever known
Your spirit pulls me through
When nothing else will do
Every night I pray
On bended knee
That you will always be
My everything
Now all my hopes and all my dreams
are suddenly reality
you've opened up my heart to feel
a kind of love that's truly real
a guiding light that'll never fade
there's not a thing in life that I would ever trade
for the love you give it won't let go
I hope you'll always know
You are my everything
Nothing your love won't bring
My life is yours alone
The only love I've ever known
Your spirit pulls me through
When nothing else will do
Every night I pray
On bended knee
That you will always be
My everything
You're the breath of life in me
the only one that sets me free
and you have made my soul complete
for all time (for all time)
You are my everything (you are my everything)
Nothing your love won't bring (nothing your love won't bring)
My life is yours alone (alone)
The only love I've ever known
Your spirit pulls me through (your spirit pulls me through)
When nothing else will do (when nothing else will do)
Every night I pray (I pray)
On bended knee (on my knee)
That you will always be
be my everything
You are my everything
Nothing your love won't bring
My life is yours alone
The only love I've ever known
Your spirit pulls me through
When nothing else will do
Every night I pray on bended knee
That you will always be
My everything
[almost spoken:] Every night I pray
down on bended knee
that you will always be
my everything
oh my everything
Harry had never felt so happy in his life, if only it could stay this way. He let his eyes wander around the room, his emerald eyes ended on Draco and Michelin dancing. Michelin turned and faced him. Slanted eyes of blackish green starred at him, one of her hands flashing her necklace. It was in a shape of a snake, the color was an eerie green, but it moved swirling around like an animal locked in a cage. Suddenly, a bright flash of light followed by a bolt of pain slashed his vision…he couldn't remember anything more…Harry's emerald eyes slowly closed…
~ Sorry guys! Gotta leave it here for now, will get to the next part when I kin!
