As I sauntered up the stairs to the stage at Hogwarts, I felt a few pairs of eyes on me. I know! I looked stunning! No need to express it! I was attired in a very clinging black and green silk tango-gown. There was a green serpent climbing up her calves then thighs and her torso. My hair which was black was done up in a stylish bun with small emeralds gleaming in the light. "Hey everybody." My words were smooth, even and seductive.

As my tango partner piped up a small hello, I sent him a glare. I despised my partner. I wished he would just go ahead and be burned. I yawned once, seated myself at the edge of the stage and watched the others rehearsed. "I don't need to rehearse." I snapped at the instructor. Ah...what was his name? Pfft, no need. I was the star of the Magical World's Worldwide Tango Company. The students started filling into the Great Hall. I spotted my table, the Slytherin table, and sent Marcus Flint a wink. Oh, yeah. Did I mention he was my boyfriend? I was living it right. The curtain went down, and everyone took their places with their partners. I was only an inch shorter than my partner whose name I did not remember. I despised everyone in the whole company.

The music started playing and the curtain went up with a roar of applause. I felt Marcus's eyes on me. I knew he was watching. I knew someone else was watching too. That Malfoy boy. Ugh, he always thought he was so magnificent, thinking he was the prince of Slytherin. No! Marcus was! He was head of the Quidditch team. And what was Draco? A lowly seeker. The lazy bum. Couldn't think of a more masculine position to play? Like MARCUS. He was the beater.

The music's beat picked up and the faster I moved. I hated the fact that I had to be so close to such an unattractive boy from Switzerland. He dipped me, my figure going backwards. I winked at Marcus, who grinned back. That drove the Malfoy boy crazy. I could feel him get angrier because he wasn't the center of attention. As we all curtsied and bowed, the curtain fell.

Everyone had to do a song with their partners. It was so annoying! I was the last. (The best, of course.) Everyone came just to see me. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8. I counted in my head, my feet moving quickly, then slowly, then quickly. I actually had to work at this, THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

The song stopped and I turned to the audience, curtsied and blew a kiss to Marcus. He long-distance snogged moi back. I could almost see Malfoy's platinum blonde head pop off his body. I turned on my heel (which was currently elevated to four and a half inches) and walked behind the stage.

The instructor shouted above us all: "Ok! Everyone! Now go out have a good time and teach other people to tango as well!" Ugh. He was so enthusiastic about it. It was disgusting. I shivered once and walked off first, grabbing Marcus's hand. I quickly was spun once and pulled close to him. He smirked once, planted a kiss on my forehead and started to sway to the beat of the music. I stopped him. "No, no, no. This is a tango. NO hip swaying."

I entwined myself to him in the traditional tango position. "Just follow my lead. You'll be fine." I hissed and started to do the tango. It came easily to him, which I took gratefully. I felt Malfoy's arm boring into my back, and I saw Marcus's gaze narrow. I distracted him by giving him a good snog and a sudden sexual step forward, to make him move backwards.

Marcus was learning quite quickly, much to my surprise. As much as I loved him, he wasn't...the brightest thing in the world. As soon as five songs went by. I seated myself beside Pansy Parkinson, beckoning Marcus to sit beside me. I sipped on some sort of concoction that was at one point punch before being spiked, drugged and eww...I'm going to cut myself off right there. Marcus spoke in his deep tone, "Charlie you were really good."

He didn't have an advanced vocabulary. But...oh well! And YES, I AM a girl. My name is Charlotte Esperanza but I go by Charlie or Char. I giggled and simply whispered in his ear, "I know." He smirked and suddenly frowned. His gaze narrowed as the Malfoy boy approached. "What do YOU want, Malfoy?" He said. Even though they were on the quidditch team and played side by

side, they were arch enemies inside the house.

Marcus quickly rose, and walked strongly towards Malfoy. His gaze narrowed, chest puffed out in a manly way. This made the blonde boy back up, hands up showing he meant no harm. They had a little discussion, while Pansy and I chit-chatted.

"What do you think that was all about?" Pansy spoke in a hushed tone.

"Pfft, I dunno. Why do you date him, anyways? He's like, high all the time!" That was me.

"Hey! At least I don't talk about the-one-needing-severe-orthadontia!"

My eyes narrowed. "Hmph. His teeth are just fine." In fact, I knew he had to get lots of braces next April.

"YOU LIE!!!" Pansy exclaimed, toppling over in a pile of high-pitched giggles.

I couldn't help but laugh at her, not with her. Oh, poo. Wait. Is it the other way around?

"I DO NOT!! Well...maybe just a little..." I smirked and flipped my hair.

There was a loud shout between the Potter boy and the Weasle boy. I simply rolled my eyes. Probablly arguing who would get to get with that Granger girl first. What I heard was: "NO! I get to ask her to dance FIRST!" and then "NO! I DO!" And so on and so forth. But it ended up that the Weasley kid walked over quite proudly, ears bright red to me and asked me to dance. I simply gave him an astonished look, leading him on. I rose, taking his hand and then slammed it into his face.

"No! You weasle-ass bastard!" I shouted at him, but not loud enough for the teachers to here. Pansy roared in laughter, nearly falling off her seat. I gave her a look. "Pansy, really. It wasn't that funny." She quickly straightened up, brushed off her skirt and nodded.

Marcus sighed, walked back to his seat and sat down with a heavy sigh. And of course, the Malfoy boy strutted over to me and Pansy and Marcus.

Marcus raised his voice. "Draco Malfoy. I told you to back off." Malfoy simply rolled his eys and held out a hand to me. "Care to tango?" Is all he said with a smug look on his face.
