reader rats. Also I'm sorry the about the mushy part, but it fit just

Ron was standing in the Gryffindor common room, very impatiently tapping his foot. He had gotten brand new dress robes for Christmas from his parents. These were maroon, but at least didn't make him look like a girl and didn't have frills or lace. Hermione and Raven came down the stairs from the girl's dressing room. Hermione in pale blue, Raven in dark purple, and the three left the room. Rekka was met by a Weasley twin on each arm, both in very dark almost black red robes. She was wearing a rich green of course. Talon was wearing her classic muggle bondage fashion clothing, only today it was a black dress instead of pants and a shirt, and was met by Sirius in his own new black dress robes, with certain bondage additions done by Talon. Krista wore black robes shot with swirls of silver while Raistlin wore his classic black velvet robes. Severus wore black robes with green accents while Remus wore the new brown dress robes that the Potions teacher had bought him. Harry was by far the most nervous person attending. He was wearing green dress robes with black accents and Draco was wearing black robes with red accents. The two boys went beautifully together. Harry and Draco entered the hall and sat down together, the house tables having been disposed off for the event. They were met with numerous stares and looks ranging from intermittent shock to outstanding horror to outraged or depressed disgust. However, when dinner was complete and the table cleared, Draco heard a song come on and pulled Harry up to dance. As the two boys danced, they seemed to forget about the stares, even though they only increased. "I am the biggest hypocrite. I've been undeniably jealous. I have been loud and pretentious. I have been utterly threatened. I've gotten candy for my self-interest, The sexy treadmill capitalist. Heaven forbid I be criticized. Heaven forbid I be ignored. I have abused my power forgive me. You mean we actually are all one, one one one one one one one. I've been out of reach and separatist. Heaven forbid average (whatever average means). I have compensated for my days of powerlessness. I have abused my so-called power forgive me. You mean we actually are all one, one one one one one one one. Did you just call her amazing? Surely we both can't be amazing! And give up my hard-earned status as fabulous freak of nature? I have abused my power forgive me. You mean we actually are all... one, one one one one one one one. Always looked good on paper, Sounded good in theory." The song ended and Draco planted a brief chaste kiss on Harry's cheek. Both boys found themselves blushing at all the people around them gasping and whispering. "I've had enough of this whispering." Draco said. He went up to where the band was playing and talked with the lead singer. Finally the singer nodded and Draco called for everyone's attention. "This is for my boyfriend, Harry Potter because I want you all to know that yes we're together and no we don't care what you think." The band started playing "You got it going on" and Draco picked up the lead vocals. "You got a face that could make an angel sigh. One shot of you could make the sickest junkie high. You got it goin on as anyone can easily see. I said you got it goin on and now I want it goin on around me. When you was still a little kid, you filled the local jail with men that tried to date you, but couldn't make the bail. You had it goin on and you were well worth doing time." Harry was so touched that Draco would sing for him at something as public as the ball that he missed several verses just watching the sway of Draco's hips and the flash of his eyes. (A.k.a. I couldn't quite make out what the next couple verses were saying.) "You turn a loser into a winner. You turn a good man into a sinner. You could take a wounded man and make him feel no pain. You could take a shrink and make him think he'd gone insane. You could make an honest politician throw an election. You could give a dying man a rock hard resurrection. Goin on, yeah yeah yeah. You got it goin and its goin full throttle. You got more goin on than any supermodel. You're the star of the show, even when you're not in it. You got more power than the house has senate. You make me hot even when you play it cool. You got it goin on over all these other fools. You got it goin on. You got it goin on. Anything that looks as good as you do just can't be wrong. You got it goin on. You got it goin on. You look so good I had to write you this song. You got it goin on. You got it goin on. You got it goin on. You got it goin on. You got it goin on. You got it goin on, but no one's gonna love you when your looks are gone." The music faded and Draco added an extra line to the song. "I'll still love you when your looks are gone." Draco got off the stage and was encircled in Harry's arms. The two kissed and one of the Ravenclaw boys nearby muttered to his date, "Its like a train wreck. You can't look away, or stop laughing." The two snickered and went to a different part of the room. Now as the band picked up "Kissed by a Rose", Harry sung quietly to Draco while they danced. "There used to be a graying tower alone on the sea. You became the light on the dark side of me. Love remained a drug that's the high and not the pill. But did you know that when it snows, my eyes become large and the light that you shine can be seen. Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grave. Ooh, The more I get of you Stranger it feels, yeah. And now that your rose is in bloom, A light hits the gloom on the grave. There is so much a man can tell you, So much he can say. You remain, My power, my pleasure, my pain. Baby, to me you're like a growing addiction that I can't deny won't you tell me is that healthy, babe? But did you know, That when it snows, My eyes become large and the light that you shine can be seen. Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grave. Ooh, the more I get of you Stranger it feels, yeah. Now that your rose is in bloom. A light hits the gloom on the grave, I've been kissed by a rose on the grave, I've been kissed by a rose... And if I should fall, at all I've been kissed by a rose there is so much a man can tell you, So much he can say. You remain my power, my pleasure, my pain. To me you're like a growing addiction that I can't deny won't you tell me is that healthy, babe. But did you know, That when it snows, My eyes become large and, The light that you shine can be seen. Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grave. Ooh, the more I get of you Stranger it feels, yeah Now that your rose is in bloom, A light hits the gloom on the grave. Yes I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grave. Ooh, the more I get of you Stranger it feels, yeah. Now that your rose is in bloom. A light hits the gloom on the grave. Now that your rose is in bloom. A light hits the gloom on the grave."
Talon had stepped up to request a song of her own, which she sang the lead to because she loved the song. "When the earth was still flat and clouds made of fire and mountains stretched up to the sky sometimes higher, folks roamed the earth like big rolling kegs. They had two sets of arms. They had two sets of legs. They had two faces peering out of one giant head. So they could watch all around them as they talked; while they read. And they never knew nothing of love. It was before the origin of love. The origin of love. And there were three sexes then, one that looked like two men glued up back to back called the children of the sun. And similar in shape and girth was the children of the earth. They looked like two girls rolled up in one. And the children of the moon were like a fork stuck on a spoon. They were part sun, part earth, part daughter, part son. The origin of love. Now the gods grew quite scared of our strength and defiance, and Thor said "I'm gonna kill them all with my hammer like I killed the giants." But the Zeus said "No! You better let me use my lightning like scissors. Like I cut the legs off the whales, dinosaurs into lizards." Then he grabbed up some bolts and he let out a laugh. He said "I'll split them right down the middle. Gonna cut them right up in half." And the storm clouds gathered above into great balls of fire. And then fire shot down from the sky in bolts like shining blades of a knife, and it ripped right through the flesh of the children of the sun and the moon and the earth. And some Indian god sewed the wound up into a hole. Pulled it 'round to our bellies to remind us the price we pay. And Osiris and the gods of the Nile gathered up a big storm to blow a hurricane to scatter us away in a flood of wind and rain and a sea of tidal waves to wash us all away. And if we don't behave, they'll cut us down again. We'll be hopping around on one foot and looking through one eye. Last time I saw you we just split in two. You was looking at me; I was looking at you. You had a way so familiar, but I could not recognize 'cause you had blood in your face and I had blood in my eyes. But I could swear by your expression that the pain down in your soul was the same as the one down in mine. That's the pain that cuts a straight line down through the heart. We call it love. We wrapped our arms around each other, tried to shove ourselves back together, we were making love, making love. It was a cold dark evening such a long time ago, when by the mighty hand of Jove. It was a sad story how we became lonely two-legged creatures. It's the story, the origin of love. That's the origin of love." Sirius handed her down from the stage and whispered in her ear. The two were seen sneaking off to a more private room.
The rest of the night was mostly uneventful. Pairs wandered off to more private settings for. private conversation. Yeah right. The last song to grace the Hogwarts dance floor was "Science Fiction Double Feature" which was made at the request of some anonymous Slytherin sixth year. "Michael Rennie was ill The Day the Earth Stood Still, but he told us where we stand. And Flash Gordon was there in silver underwear, Claude Rains was the Invisible Man. Then something went wrong for Fay Wray and King Kong. They got caught in a celluloid jam. Then at a deadly pace It Came From...Outer Space. And this is how the message ran: Science fiction, double feature. Doctor X will build a creature. See androids fighting Brad and Janet. Anne Francis stars in Forbidden Planet. Wuh uh uh oh o-o-oh! At the late night, double feature, picture show. I knew Leo G. Carrol was over a barrel when Tarantula took to the hills. And I really got hot when I saw Jeanette Scott fight a triffid that spits poison and kills. Dana Andrews said Prunes gave him the runes and passing them used lots of skills. But When Worlds Collide, said George Pal to his bride, "I'm gonna give you some terrible thrills," like a... Science fiction, double feature. Doctor X will build a creature. See androids fighting Brad and Janet. Anne Francis stars in Forbidden Planet. Wuh uh uh oh o-o-oh! At the late night, double feature, picture show. I wanna go! Wuh oh o-o-oh! To the late night, double feature, picture show. By RKO, Wuh oh o-o-o! To the late night, double feature, picture show. In the back row, Oh oh o-o-oh! To the late night, double feature, picture show!" For those parties remaining, the movie Rocky Horror Picture Show was then projected onto one of the walls of the hall and everyone enjoyed the delightful movie.
