Hating Love Chapter 6 Masquerade Ball Rules
Kat got out of bed and went into the common room. It was Sunday so no one was in the common room except for Hermione. Kat sat down and started talking to Hermione.
"So if you had to choose, who would you go to the ball with? Ron or Harry?" Kat asked.
"I don't know who would you go with?" Hermione asked.
"I barely know them. You have known them since your first year." Kat said.
"You can still answer." Hermione stated.
"So can you." Kat told her.
"I like Ron but only as a friend. I guess I would go with Harry." Hermione said slightly blushing. "Okay your turn. Who would you go with?"
"Neither. I don't like either of them that way. Plus I think of Harry kind of like an older brother the way he is trying to keep Drake away from me." Kat said.
"So you do like Malfoy then." Hermione said.
"What?!? When did I say that? What on earth would make you think this? Just because I don't have a thing for Harry or Ron I automatically like Draco Malfoy? Please." Kat said.
"You have not known Malfoy very long and you are already head over heels for him. I can see it when you look at him." Hermione said.
"Look, you may think you are right but you are not. I have known Drake since I was ten years old. I told you this isn't my first time living in London. I do not like him at all. I do not look at him in any special way." Kat said looking at the time, "We have to go to the seventh year meeting."
Every seventh year had gone into the Great Hall. Everyone was wondering about the Ball. Dumbledore entered a few minutes after all of the seventh years had arrived. "Thank you for coming. I know that you all are wondering about the Masquerade Ball. Well for those of you who don't know, a Masquerade Ball is a masked ball. It is more of a muggle custom, however, we have put our own magical twist on it. Your dates will be chosen magically. You will not know who they are until the night of the ball. You will be assigned a place to meet your date. This place will be on a slip of paper that is already in your dormitories. You will dress in muggle clothing. Girls will be in evening gowns. Boys will be in tuxedos, a tie is optional. You are able to buy these type's of clothing in certain shops that are in Hogsmeade. Any questions?" Dumbledore asked. A Ravenclaw girl raised her hand.
"So we don't get a choice of who we go with?" She asked.
"No you don't. Any other questions?" Dumbledore answered happily.
"When is the Ball?" asked a Hufflepuff girl.
"The Masquerade Ball will be held on Friday, October seventeenth. Any other questions?"
"Do we have to wear muggle clothing?" A Slytherin boy asked.
"Yes. Any other questions?" Dumbledore replied, still happier than ever.
"Are you completely insane?" Kat asked.
"Even though some may think so, no I am not insane." Dumbledore answered with a smile, "If there aren't any more questions, you are all free to leave." All the students started to leave.
"I gotta go see McGonagall. I'll see you guys later." Kat said to the trio.
"Okay we'll see you later." Harry said.
