CHAPTER SIX: Numair and George
Sunset found Daine in the dress she had worn to Carthak, the lavender one with the gold overcoat and her hair pinned up. Hermione in a shimmering blue gown with her hair sleeked down and McGonagall in a pastel green gown, with her hair loosely tied back. Numair was wearing elegant black breeches, a flowing white shirt, and a blue tunic, his hair in a short horsetail. Ron and Harry were almost identical in breeches, shirt and tunic, except, Harry had green breeches and tunic and Ron had blue. Harry's bangs wee flattened to hide his scar and Ron's hair was combed nicely. Both wore white shirts. Snape was obstinate and refused to wear anything, but black breeches, white shirt, and black tunic.
They all walked together down to the ballroom talking casually. As they entered the room they stopped talking amazed at the beauty of it all. Many people were already dancing and some were sitting on the side. The group chose some seats and sat, watching, but not for long. Soon a tall, brown haired, green-eyed boy wearing a page's uniform walked over to Hermione and asked her to dance. Then a stocky, round faced man walked over to their group and introduced himself as Harailt of Ali. He asked McGonagall to dance. Then a pretty black haired, blue-eyed girl came and asked Ron to dance. And another girl came to ask Harry to dance. Ron's dancing partner introduced herself as Princess Kalasin. Ron told her his name, stammering. He couldn't believe his luck. The girl who was dancing with Harry introduced herself as Uline of Hannalhof, after Harry told her his name, nervously flattening his bangs. Hermione was introduced to and danced with many pages. Mainly just the brown haired Neal, and the redheaded Cleon. Snape eventually asked Alanna to dance and then Daine. He continued to dance with both for a while. Numair and George just watched him, talking of different things.
Then when the ball was halfway over Snape whispered something to Alanna who then slapped him hissed, "I AM MARRIED!" then stomped off to find George.
Snape looked abashed for a moment then found Daine, trying to escape the ball so she wouldn't have to dance with him. Daine knew that if she was asked,she had to dance, so she reluctantly did.
At the end of the dance, Snape whispered to her, "I am in room 21, if you want to come see me tonight. If you are interested."
Daine shoved him away and looked sickened, like she would vomit. Then she said coolly, "No, I am not interested in what room number you are in, but I am sure my fiancé, Numair, a black robed mage, would be interested in where the person who made moves on me is staying."
Snape looked to where Numair and George were sitting, comparing their bulging muscles with each other. Snape looked horrified. Numair looked up and saw the look on Daine's face, then the look on Snape's. He got up and began to walk over when Alanna stomped up to George and whispered something to him. George's face contorted with fury and he too stood up. Both of them walked over to Snape.
Numair asked Daine, "Is something wrong my magelet?"
Daine whispered something to him and Numair's face paled. Not with fear, but with anger. Calmly Numair nodded to George and they walked to Snape, who was frozen on the spot, scared to move. They each grabbed one arm and picked him up. They then carried him out the exit. Not too many people noticed this. They were used to weird things happening with Numair and George. Alanna and Daine smiled at each other.
"I think we should go outside and watch the fun." Alanna told Daine, so they quietly exited after George, Snape, and Numair.
