Chapter 7

"The Ball, Kissing in the Moonlight and the big surprise"



The ball was the only thing everyone has been talking about, girls were all giggly and bubbly when guys asked them out to be their dates for the ball. It was just two more days before the ball and still no one has asked Usagi out.

Usagi sighed, it was a Wednesday evening and all of them had finished their homework. Usagi sat with some of the girls, Hermione, Ginny, Lavender, Parvati, Alicia and Angelina. Amazingly the boys were also separated into a group and were whispering amongst themselves.

"So Hermione who asked you out for the ball?" asked Alicia a 7th year, Usagis fellow Chaser on the Quidditch team, who is currently all giggly and flushed.

All girls wanted to know who asked Hermione out. Hermione blushed crimson and mumbled something into the book she was reading that was upside down.

"I'm sorry I didn't catch it," giggled Angelina, who was also a 7th year, Usagi other fellow catcher on the Quidditch team.

"Ron" said Hermione blushing furiously, placing the book down.

All girls giggled, happy for their friend. Usagi was not surprised, they both really liked each other, Ron and Hermione were bound to get together someday.

"Who are you going with Alicia?" asked Hermione still red but grinning.

"George" giggled Alicia.

"And I'm going with Fred!" announced Angelina. Both girls grinned goofily. Soon all girls giggled yet again.

"Lavender who are you going with?" asked Ginny.

"Seamus asked me out," said blushing lavender, she then sighed getting a far away look. All girls shook their heads, she was hopeless.

"Parvati, who asked you?" asked Usagi, trying not to look depressed since she had no date.

"Dean, oh, I think I'm in love!" cried Parvati dramatically, placing her hands on her chest. Again all girls shook their heads; these two girls are like twins, hopeless cases.

"Ginny who asked you out?"

Ginny blushed as red as her hair, "Neville asked me out, since no on else did" mumbled Ginny. All girls squealed in delight for Ginny, which made the poor girl blush even more.

Then they all turned to Usagi expecting an answer. Usagi blushed but looked away.

"Common girl, spill," demanded Alicia. Usagi just sighed sadly.

"No one has asked me yet, I guess no one really likes me," said Usagi looking at her hands whish seemed very interesting to her now.

"Oh common Usagi, there is still tomorrow and Friday. Some one is bound to ask you out." Said Hermione.

"Thanks you guys, I don't mind going solo anyway," said Usagi waving her hand to dismissing the subject.

Hermione yawned, it was getting late. "Girls we better go to bed, it's late. We need sleep or else tomorrow we might sleep through class"

The girls groaned and shock their head. They stood up except for Usagi. "You guys go on and sleep, I still have to read some pages for potions," said Usagi.

"Sure Usagi, good night everyone" the girls then went up to their separate dormitories.

Usagi took her book out of her book bag and found a comfortable position by the window seat. Everything was dark and deserted on the school grounds as Usagi looked out the window.

Usagi along with the boys were the only ones who were left in the common room. The bys were whispering amongst themselves probably about who their dates are going to be.

Shaking her head Usagi started to read, not noticing sidelong glances she received from a boy with emerald eyes.

~Meanwhile by the boys~

Harry could not believe it. All the guys have already dates for the ball even Ron had mustered up his courage and asked out Hermione. It was only Harry now who had no date.

George stood up and yawned, "Well men, it late we should better hit the sack"

"Yeah and besides we need our beauty sleep for the women" said Fred joining his twin.

They all look at Fred strangely for a while, "What? We should look good for the women," stated Fred.

"But Fred the ball is only two days away" said Ron.

"Besides only girls would say they need beauty sleep," added Dean. (Add a sweat drop here)

They all laughed and stoop up, "Night guys" said Neville as they all went to their dorms except for Harry and Ron who stayed behind.

"You go on Ron, I still have, err, something to do" said Harry taking a glance at Usagi reading a book by the window.

"Oh yeah right, Harry?" asked Ron.

"Hmm?" he was still watching Usagi.

"You really like her do you?" asked Ron. Harry looked at Ron blushing very red. "I…I…yeah I like her a…lot" said Harry finally.

"Well then good luck then, tell me what happened alright?" smirked Ron, "'night Harry" said Ron finally winking before going up the stares to the dorms.

Harry just nodded; he took a deep breath and started walking towards Usagi.

Usagi was still reading the book and did not notice Harry until she felt a tap on her shoulder and looked up. Usagi smile, she moved a bit so that Harry can sit beside her on the window seat, which he gladly did.

"Hey what are you doing still up?" asked Harry.

"Well, I can ask you the same question Harry." Smirked Usagi. "Since you asking, just reading a bit for potion, but still I don't get understand it anyway and the book is not helping much." Sighing she pushed up her glasses up her nose a bit (AN: remember she wears fake glasses!) and tucked away a stray strand of hair that got itself free from her braid. She then closed the book on her lap and put it away.

"I have come to ask you, err, something?" said Harry blushing looking at Usagi. Usagi in turn blushed also, "Sure what?" she looked out the window looking at particular nothing.

"Usagi I hope you don't mind me asking but do you, err, have a boyfriend?" asked Harry all flustered, blushing like crazy.

Usagi looked at him shocked. Really not expecting that question at all. After a long silence she smirked and looked at the blushing Harry. 'He looks cute when he blushes'. Then replied,

"I used to. But he cheated on me. I didn't realize it though. He cheated on me and he chose me friend, me 'best' friend. So for now, no, I don't have one" Usagi said honestly smiling, a single tear made its way down her cheeks, but she quickly wiped it away, mumbling something 'something in the eye'.

"Oh sorry, I really didn't know, sorry" apologized Harry. 'I have a chance, YES!' his mind screamed.

"Hey its okay, besides that's the past. It not good to linger on the past, but you know

what? I am looking for one." Stated Usagi coolly, smirking at his reaction.

Harry turned to a bright red, and tried to hard not to look happy. 'She is looking for one!'

Usagi smirked, 'he is very cute when he blushes, cancel that, make it handsome' that point Usagi blushed at her own thoughts. There was an eerie silence between the two until Usagi broke it.

"So, Harry do you have a girlfriend?" Usagi asked, expecting a 'yes' as an answer. An unknown feeling swept over her.

Harry blushed, looked out the window. "No, never had one" mumbled Harry.

The unknown feeling that swept over Usagi went away suddenly, and surprisingly Usagi felt relieved (AN: Wonder…). "I don't believe you. The oh-so-famous Harry Potter, no girlfriend?! I am shocked" faked Usagi trying to hide her joy, 'Then maybe I can change that Harry-kun' thought Usagi smirking.

"Really, I am not lying! Hey would a face like this lie?" asked Harry trying to make a serious face but instead end up laughing. Usagi laughed as well.

"But anyway, I still have to ask you something though" said Harry after a good 5 minutes of laughing. Harry felt nervous and giddy.

"Oh sure, but tell me again, what station will this interview be aired? Potter talk?" giggled Usagi.

"No seriously" said Harry rather serious, Usagi immediately stop giggling looking into Harry's eyes.

"Umm, do you have a date for the ball?" asked Harry suddenly.

Usagi looked at Harry strangely, cooking her head to the side. Then smiling sadly, "No" she whispered. "I don't, but its no big deal, I really don't mind going solo anyway." Said Usagi sadly, "You?"

"No, not yet. I have not yet asked her out," said Harry blushing.

"So who is the lucky girl?" asked Usagi sadly, hopes that it would be her died away.

There was a long moment of silence between the two, both of them blushing. Harry then spoke up that made Usagi faint.

"You, you Usagi"

Usagi didn't believe it, he is asking her out, finally!

"Me" squeaked Usagi, blushing like crazy.

"Yeah, Usagi would like to be my date for the Halloween ball?" asked Harry seriously, but still all scatterbrained, looking at Usagi.

Usagi blushed, and then smirked at Harry, a certain gleam in her eyes.

"You moron, of course I will go out with you! You know how long I have been waiting for you to ask?" said Usagi.

"Really?" asked Harry speechless.

Usagi stood up pulling Harry with her, smirking at Harry reaction.

"Of course Harry, besides I would love to be your date," said Usagi. She gave him a kiss on the cheek, grabbed her things and went to the stars of the fifth year girls and turned around at Harry, "Good night Harry" winking at him and she walked up the stairs.

Harry had no chance to reply, he was speechless, 'she kissed me, she kissed me!!' his mind yelled. He smiled goofily, his hand reached up his cheek where she had kissed him, 'I will never wash this cheek ever again' he thought as he stumbled up to the boys dorm.

There in his bed fell in into a peaceful sleep dreaming about his golden haired angel.

(AN: ^_^)

~Halloween Ball~

Hermione and the other girls and all of the boys found out that Harry asked Usagi out to be his date. All of them were truly happy for the two. So now all of them were getting ready for the ball. Lavender and Parvati were done already and are probably joining their dates in the common room. Usagi and Hermione were the only ones left in the girls' dorm.

"Hurry up Usagi. The guys are waiting for us!" said Hermione, if Usagi wasn't her friend she would be already down there with Ron, but then again friendship got the better of her.

Usagi was now only putting the finishing touches to herself. For the last time she checked herself out in the mirror, and twirled around one more time. Finally after 5 more minutes of straightening out her dress she faced Hermione smiling.

"Do I look good for Harry?" asked Usagi unsure of her self before turning back to the mirror.

"Yeah, now common, you look beautiful, gorgeous and if Harry doesn't see it I'm going to smack him on the head with my Arithmacy book, now lets go and say bye, bye to the mirror" Hermione said grabbing Usagi by her arm and dragging her out the door.

Both of them looked stunning, Hermione as usual used a spell to make her straight and style it beautifully. Brushing it up with a few lose strands. She wore a nice baby blue dress robe that fit her perfectly. She did a spell on her teeth so that they wont look so big. Usagi did her make-up, which she reluctantly agreed. Her skin had glitters on it to make her sparkle. In other words she looked very beautiful tonight, this is no the Hermione we used to know.

Usagi in the other hand looked like a goddess. She wore her princess gown for tonight. Her white gown showed her perfect figures shamelessly. The gown is barely past her ankles flowing freely on the ground, every step she took it seemed like the dress would fallow. She wore light make-up and also had light glitters in her skin to make her skin sparkle in the light. For the first time that she was at Hogwarts she didn't wear her glasses, revealing her beautiful gleaming blue eyes. Her hair was free from its usual braid and is now all wavy and way past her back. She wore a golden necklace with a pendant that had a multi-colored crystal in the center, the Ginzushou. Usagi looked stunning, every girl would envy her beauty tonight.

Both girl made tier way down the stairs excitedly, the were making their down the common room where their dates would be waiting.

Harry and Ron were already waiting in the common room, both looked very handsome tonight.

Harry looked very handsome in his dark blue dress robe (AN: They do wear dress robes right? Tell me please!), he tried to tidy his hair but gave up the tenth time, it wouldn't stay in place, but still that made him look even handsomer.

Ron has a new dress robe, a dark green one, still he was very pleased. He looked also very handsome.

"What's taking them so long?" asked Harry. He was very excited to see Usagi.

"We are already late," complained Ron. He was thinking about all the food they would miss. And of Hermione.

"Oh quit complaining, we are already here. Usagi finally has agreed to separate with the mirror," announced a voice by the stairs.

Harry and Ron gasped, speechless. Both of them just stared t their dates. "What are you guys looking at, common lets go" announced Usagi, clinging herself onto Harry by the shoulder and leading them out the common room.

Hermione linked arms with Ron and both followed Harry and Usagi

"You look great Harry," whispered Usagi into his ear, as they walked down the corridors to the great hall. Harry leaned down and whispered into Usagis ear "You look really stunning, beautiful" Usagi blushed then giggled leaning closer to Harry, "Thanks"

Music played softly could be heard from the outside. When they arrived they were amazed at the sight that greeted them. At the sidelines, tables with snack food and drinks were lined. There were many small tables scattered around the hall instead of having 4 house tables. There was a stage with instruments playing by themselves. What was most amazing, there was beautiful big terrace and some couples were already out there enjoying the nice night atmosphere and gazing out side the grounds.

Students were enjoying themselves, eating or drinking. Even the teachers enjoyed themselves. Professor Dumbledore was currently urging Snape to dance with Professor Sinistra (AN: I think she is a she right?). The teachers were also wearing dress robes, well except for Hagrid; he wore his usual fur coat.

Harry, Usagi, Hermione and Ron found a table for them and ordered something to eat from the waiter goblins. (AN: Cute o.O)

Usagi saw Setsuna, she smiled at her friend, Setsuna smiled back, winking.

Some boys and girls were dancing with their dates, along the music on the dance floor.

The four talked amongst themselves while eating. Enjoying each other's company and their dates.

"This is so cool," exclaimed Ron.

"Yeah, the first time Hogwarts ever had this," said Harry.

"Later there will be band, but I forgot the name, something with three I guess," said Hermione. (AN: I wonder, hmmm oh I know! Hehehe ^^)

Usagi looked at Harry and smiled

"Harry lets dance"

"What? But I'm not good…"

"Oh common, I'll teach you"

Usagi grabbed Harry's hand, pulling him up and grinning. Harry was defeated, Usagi dragged him to the dance floor. Harry glanced at Ron and Hermione, both were already on the dance floor dancing.

"Okay so now what?" he said turning to Usagi. Usagi just smiled grabbed his hand, placed it on her waist, (Harry blushed at this, Usagi smirked "I love it when you blush" said Usagi, making Harry blush even more). Usagi placed her hand on his shoulder and grabbed his other hand.

"Lets dance"

So both of them danced together, through the songs. They looked perfect together. Waltzing around the dance floor, occasionally bumping into Fred and George who danced with each other dancing a dramatic tango both of them having roses in their mouths and dipping dramatically.

"You are doing great" whispered Usagi.

"Thanks I have a great teacher." Whispered Harry back. That made Usagi blush. The music ended, all that were dancing stopped dancing and applauded. The instruments bowed dramatically and started to play again, this time a slow love song.

Slowly couples started to dance in each other's embrace. Harry and Usagi blushed, and looked down. "Well…" blushing like crazy but smiling Harry grabbed Usagi around the waist, encircling his arms around her small waist.

Usagi gasped at his sudden move, but soon found it comfortable and reached up and encircled her arms around his neck and leaning slowly into his embrace, sighing contently.

Both of them said nothing, just savoring the presence of one another. Harry looked up and saw Ron and Hermione dancing slowly in each other's embrace as well.

"Harry" he heard Usagi whisper into his chest, he looked down at his angel in his embrace. "Hmmm?"

"Let's got to the terrace to talk" said Usagi in a small voice.

~Meanwhile backstage~

"Is she there? Tell me!!" asked a figure impatiently. (AN: Who can that be?)

"Yeah, she's there dancing with a guy" said another voice annoyingly. (AN: I wonder...)

"Wha..." the first voice exclaimed but was cut off by a third voice.

"Wait, they are going to the terrace," said the third voice, looking from behind the terrace, trying to see through the instruments that were blocking his view.

"What, let me see, go away, move it" said the first voice.

There were loud crashing noises and strings of Japanese curses. "There she is!" exclaimed the first voice looking through the curtain.

"With a another guy" said the third voice knowingly.

"We already know that," said the second voice annoyingly. "Move it, damn, you're on my foot!"

"Well at least it's not 'him'. It's a good thing Setsuna informed us about the situation." Said the first voice angrily, still looking through the curtains watching a golden haired girl with a boy together.

~On the Terrace~

All the couples that occupied the terrace earlier have gone inside probably still dancing. It was just Usagi and Harry. The night was beautiful, the moon was full and glowing to its fullest.

Harry was standing beside Usagi leaning on the marble railings of the terrace. For a while there was silence, no one spoke enjoying each other's company.

Usagi sighed, she looked up at the moon, bathing her with moonlight 'These past events have happened so fast. I lost my love that should have meant to be but instead turned out to be a big hoax. My guardians betrayed me now I am all alone with Setsuna. And now here I am trying to live a new life, and I fell in love…again. But is this time around my true love? My soulmate? My prince? Mother I wish you where here *sigh*there is only one way to find out, ne?'

Usagi smiled as she felt a comforting warmth sweep over her through the moonlight. 'Hai mesume only one way to find out' said a very familiar voice in her head. Usagi looked up at the moon startled, but then nodded smiling.

"Harry?" she said suddenly after the long silence, her head turned toward him. Harry looked up at Usagi, "Yeah?"

"Remember the other day when you asked me about having a boyfriend?" she asked.

"Yeah, you said you don't have one" replied Harry. "So what's your point?"

Usagi faced Harry, looked him in the eyes and smiled, "Well, I am looking for one Harry" she repeated what she said Wednesday nigh. Harry nodded smiling, still looking into her beautiful blue eyes.

Usagi as well stared into Harry's emerald green eyes. Harry then bent down closing his eyes slowly. Usagi slowly leaned forward, closing her eyes.

Their lips touched…

Harry was amazed how soft Usagis lips were, savoring the sweet kiss. The kiss was simple but ever so slowly passion grew, and the fire that roared in their souls made itself known.

Harry's arms encircled around Usagis waist pulling her closer to him. Usagi was surprised at the kiss but very soon gave in, amazed that the boy could kiss amazingly. When he pulled her closer to him she crumbled. She then slowly reached up encircled her arms around his neck, pulling him closer.

Usagi gasped, she felt his tongue trace her lower lip asking for permission to enter, Usagi gave in and gave full permission.

The passion between them grew as their tongues dances together, kissing each other passionately. Usagi`s fingers buried themselves into Harry's hair, pushing him towards her more. Both of them were kissing passionately that both were waiting so long.

Kissing in the moonlight, hidden from the view of everybody behind the white curtain.

After a long wile they broke apart, because of need of oxygen. Both breathing hard, still in each other's embrace. Then Harry spoke up. "Well then, to stop you from looking anymore, here I am."

Usagi thought for a moment then looked up, smirking, "Well, for you first kiss that wasn't so bad" she quickly kissed him again.

"Common, lets go, Ron and Hermione are probably wondering where we are," said Harry taking Usagis hand leading her inside.

Usagi looked back at the moon, and smiled 'I hope you enjoyed the show' Usagi thought at the moon.

When they arrived at their table almost everyone was already seated. "There you are! I was wondering where you two where!" exclaimed Hermione as Harry and Usagi took their seats.

"Yeah, we were, err, talking by the terrace" said Usagi blushing.

"Yeah right," muttered Hermione, "the band is about to perform any minute," said Hermione in her normal voice. Immediately both girls started talking about the band, still not knowing the name.

Ron turned to Harry and smirked, "Psst, you got a bit lipstick there" he whispered at Harry throwing him a checkered orange and black table napkin.

"What? Exclaimed Harry immediately using the table napkin and wiping away the light pink lipstick.

"I wonder where you got it from?" stated Ron exasperatedly.

Harry blushed furiously now, clearing his throat Harry retorted, "So what did you and Hermione do while we were, err, gone?"

Ron blushed very red before he answered. "I asked her to be my girlfriend" in a very small voice. Harry's eyes grew wide, a smirk replaced his features "and?"

"Yes, she said yes" Ron was still very red but he was grinning goofily. "So what about you and Usagi now? You an item?" Ron asked, gesturing to Usagi who was still busy talking to Hermione.

"Well, you can say so"

Ron sighed, "Good, I was tired of you two staring at each other"

At that moment the instruments stopped playing. Everyone stopped talking. "They're starting," whispered Usagi to Harry. Harry nodded and grabbed Usagis hand smiling, Usagi blushed.

The instruments disappeared on the stage, the lights dimmed, a spot light hit the stage and Dumbledore who stood up, looking like a happy jolly Santa Clause. "Everyone, I know everyone is excited about this band performing here, as am I, I am very fond of their music actually, so without further a due, here are the…

'THREE LIGHTS'!!"
