Harry and his friends Hermione and Ron were all headed for the common room when Ron was called to go to Katie Bell since she had to talk to Ron about quidditch. Ron told Harry and Hermione to go on without them so they did.

Harry didn't know what to talk about since he was always with Hermione. As he was about to say "what's up" Hermione started talking about the Yule ball.

"So I can't wait until the Yull ball! Last year it was so much fun!"

This was the last subject Harry was thinking about.

"Ya last year you were lucky you weren't stuck with Pavarti or anyone as annoying!"

"Oh come on Harry! It won't be as bad this year! And maybe if you can't get any dates I could accompany you!" Hermione said cheerful because she knew what Harry had been through last year.

"Fine... but maybe I won't get a date on purpose!" Harry said jokingly.

They both laughed.

A month later came the ball. Harry had forgotten about Hermione when Cho asked Harry out. Harry knew that Cho was sometimes crazy and annoying but he just loved the way she smelled and looked. Harry was getting dressed. He decided to wear his new cloak. (Is it a cloak: S I don't know!!) It was green. He was just about to tie his shoes when Ron burst in the room. "Hey mate are you ready for the big night! Katie said she would go with me just now! She wasn't planning on to go because she thought it was pointless, but I convinced her!" Ron said ecstatically. "That's great Ron!" Harry said. Harry couldn't believe that Ron had a date. "Oh! And I almost forgot to tell you Harry! I saw Cho in the corridor bragging about going to the Yule ball with you to all her friends!" Ron said. Harry wasn't so surprised. Who wouldn't be excited to go to the Yule ball with the guy who defeated "The Dark Lord "? This made Harry feel uncomfortable.

The great hall was full with 4th, 5th 6th, and 7th years. Everyone looked so different. Harry was looking for Ron and Hermione when Cho popped in front of him. Harry saw Cho's face like if she was a million dollars. It was as if she was veela. She kissed Harry on the cheek. "Hi! I've been looking for you!" she said enthusiastically. Harry was so surprised, she kissed him on the cheek and he didn't have to do anything. If only life was that easy! Everyone was allowed to go in the Dinning room where everything had changed. The 4 long tables were vanished, there was a stage, a band, and the ceiling was now the night sky. The band started playing so everyone went on the dancing floor. Cho pulled Harry to the dance floor. He there saw Ron with Katie, Dean, Neville (who had found himself a date) and Ginny with her new boyfriend. He saw all his classmates, everyone but Hermione. All this thinking made him not notice that the song was over and was now a slow song. He was sweating. Did Cho want to dance with him? But she grabbed him and held him like he was a stuffed bear; he quickly put his arms around her waist and started slow dancing. He couldn't help but say " You look so pretty tonight" she blushed. "I guess then, that Hogwarts will have to have more Balls because it took me an 1 1/2 hour to get ready," they laughed. Just then Harry saw Hermione sitting all alone in a corner, she looked very sad. The dance was over and Cho needed to go to the bathroom but her wondered if she was going to talk to all her friends in the bathroom about their dance because all her friends were going with her as they all giggled they made a scene. Harry turned around and Hermione was no longer there. She was gone with their friend Jocelyn. They both started talking, Harry tried to listen but he was too far away, just as he was going closer Ron came

"I know what your thinking Harry, and I can help. I've been watching you ALL this time. C'mon I'll help you. I'll pretend as if I lost something so if they do find us we'll have an excuse." Before Harry could say thanks, Ron dropped a button that rolled straight at their bench outside. It was the same place where in their 4th year Hagrid had told his love that he was half a giant. Hermione was crying. Jocelyn was patting her on the back.

"He came with Cho. CHO! Doesn't he understand that I'm madly in love with him? I've loved ever since that hug in 2nd year. And just about a month ago, we were talking about the Yule ball." She explained the whole flirting situation that had happen. Jocelyn was surprised. "Hermione, I know you liked him but whoever lives up there in the clouds puts obstacles in your life and if you pass these obstacles, you get stronger emotionally and physically!" Jocelyn said. Jocelyn was very religious. Hermione continued talking while she was crying. "Jocelyn, don't you understand! I love Harry and there he is dancing with Cho!" Just then Ron sneezed which gave them away. Harry was standing there. Eyes looking straight at Hermione's red face full of tears. He was about to explain why they were there, but nothing came out.
