I guess this story started when I was browsing through our beloved fanfiction.net and saw countless numbers of fics about balls at Hogwarts. And I thought to myself, as proud as ever, that if all these people can write stories about dances, surely I can, too. So here I am, writing my very own first chapter for my very own story about a ball at Hogwarts. Each chapter is in a different character's point of view and I suggest you read all of them, because the end of the story is at the end of the last chapter, not the end of every chapter. So have fun reading!

*I do not own these characters. They are Joanne Rowling's. I do not own this idea. It comes from Matt Groening and all those smart people who work for The Simpsons (the episode where Marge cuts off Homer's thumb). Well, not exactly, each part of this story is in a different person's POV because I wanted to make it longer and I don't want to write EVERY-SINGLE-EVENT out several times. I am human, after all. I do not own this name. It belongs to some seniors at my school who made it the name of their play. Overall, I do not own very much at all.*

Point of View

Chapter One: Ginny

Ginny walked through the corridor of Hogwarts, deep in thought. Hydrogen, helium, lithium beryllium, she thought. Boron, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, flourine…she suddenly stopped in her tracks. She forgot what came next! Was it argon? Or was it… she grabbed the scrunched up piece of paper from out of her pocket and searched it frantically. Whew, it was neon.

Malfoy was standing near her when she took out the paper. To him and everyone else Ginny must have looked very strange. The piece of paper said The Periodic Table on it and was filled with words and numbers. Not many people knew what it was about, except it was Muggle 'magic'. They wouldn't have looked at it twice, but Ginny was so absorbed in it, she bumped headlong into a Ravenclaw.

"Ginny!" the person called. Ginny looked up and saw that it was Cho Chang, the Ravenclaw Seeker whom Harry had a crush on. Ginny noticed that the eyes of several boys followed her down the corridor. Well, she is pretty, she thought to herself, but she's a total airhead!

Cho Chang seemed very excited about something. "Guess what Ginny! We're going to have a ball! I just went to see Professor Dumbledore and he gave me full consent! Isn't that wonderful? I think the Hall should be decorated in pink… Oh this is sooo exciting! I'm pretty sure Harry would ask me this time. Oh! I've got so much to do! I need to be at a place where Harry can easily find me and ask me to go with him, I need to go to Hogsmead and get some new dress robes… Well, see you later Ginny." And with that, she was gone, with the eyes of the boys still on her.

Ginny was quite stunned. She did not think that Cho cared at all for Harry, because she constantly toyed with his affections. Cho didn't like Harry at all, but Harry was too smitten with her to notice. Being Harry's friend, Ginny felt that she needed to help him out and the see the truth in the evil Cho Chang. She had to help him to realise that Cho Chang was way below him.

But how could she help him? Ginny wondered about this as she walked down the corridor to the Gryffindor Common Room. She could ask someone to help her… she could ask Ron, but these days he was so obsessed with beating the twins at Exploding Snap to care about anything else, even his best friend's well being. Well, she could ask Hermione, but… Would Hermione help her? Hermione was very smart, and Ginny knew that she liked Harry. Hermione would love to ask Harry to the dance without him thinking about Cho Chang…

Ginny changed course, and set off towards the library. Cho's not worth it, Harry, she thought. And we'll help you see that. And Ginny was so intent on forming her plan that she did not see Malfoy sulking in a corner.
