The day of the ball, Professor McGonagall decided to show them something useful for their costumes.
"Class! As promised, we'll be studying Glamour Charms today. These charms are used to alter one's physical appearance through transfiguration and should prove quite useful in your costumes!"
The Class got very excited about this, Lindsay smirked a little 'Merlin, this'll be TOO easy, I don't need this! but I guess I have to pretend!' She thought to Herself.
"Today we'll be covering everything from hair and eye colour to gender so we hve quite a busy class ahead of us!" McGonagall said enthusiasticly. "we will sart with the Hair..." She began as the class proceeded to take notes on the incantations and wand movements.
Hermione was of course Gifted with the charms, it was Hermione after all, but Ron and Harry did fairly well as well. Harry had sucessfully turned into Harriet on the third try and Ron had turned his hair a vivid lime green. All too soon the class Had ended and the students were left to obsess over their costumes once more.
When the quartet had entered the commonroom, the girls quickly hurried upstairs to get ready. they were shortly joined by Lavender and Pavarti who, despite Dumbledore's warning, were getting into their playboybunny outfits.
As Roxie, Lindsay got to wear the silvery-white sequins and had coughcough"transfigured"coughcough her hair to a short blonde style and her eyes to a bluish grey. Her legs were covered with a pair of pale grey fishnets as were her arms. She was Wearing a sequined dress that barely went to her knees and was held on by spagetti straps. Her makeup was kinda heavy stage-makeupish tuff with seductive dark red lipstick. She looked over to Hermione who was wearing the same thing in Black and who had actually transfigured her hair so it was jet-black short and straight. Even Lindsay Had to admit she looked hot, Ron was going to have a hard time talking that night!
Soon enough they were ready and descended the staircase to the commonroom. Harry and Ron were alredy down there, Ron was in a sparkly-pinstripe suit (A/N I WANT ONE!!!!Cries) and had his hair jelled back. He had coloured it so It was bron and greying slightly, and he Bore a single red rose on his lapel. Harry stood Next to him in a shabbier suit with a tweed jacket (complete with leather patches sewn on the elbows!) and a heavily powdered face with dark circles around the eyes and coloured lips so it hinted at a clown face. He had transfigured his glasses into contacts for the evening. (he hated contacts, but for the sake of the costume, he would risk touching his eye...he's a little squeamish about the eyes)
When Lindsay and Hermione Came into viex, Ron felt his Heart, and groin, lurch. "Merlin Hermione, You look Great! You should wear sequins more often!" He said with a smile.
Harry on the other hand was being suprisingly quiet, Usually after the "incident"as he called it, He would usually try to talk to Lindsay every chance he got, silence made him uncomfortable so he just talked. But this time he was speechless, he tried saying the word "wow" but the words got lost in his throat. She was stunning, as was Hermione, but Lindsay was... wow... He offered up his arm so they could go, but she refused.
"I'm supposed to hang off Ron remember? Hermie and I are his arm candy! after all, He is apparently going to get us off as not guilty!"
"Right, I knew that, I was just setting myself for rejection like Amos does" Harry replied 'actually I thought we wee going together, but I guess I should have expected you to bitch." he thought to himself bitterly. as he followed the lawyer and 2 beautiful murderesses out the portrait Hole.
The Dance was heldin the great Hall, Dinner had been served to the third years and below already and would be served to the students attending the ball when they got there. The Quartet got to the entrance adn McGonagall took a good Look at both of the girls.
If it were not for the fact that you 2 were obviously paying attention in class today, I might not allow those outfits, but nonetheless, they are quite creative, so I'll let you in. Right behind them, Lavender, Pavarti adn Padma came up in their blayboybunny costumes but McGonagall stopped them. "Sorry girls, not enough material for me to let you in, just let me fix that. and she transfigured their outfits to that of a moogle, cat sith and a Tonberry mascot from FFX2.
Dean ( who was lavender's date) Looked impressed. "Hey Professor, since when are you into gaming?"
"Since 3 years go when I confiscted a student's PS2, he had tried to charm it so he could play it with the screen proected against a wall. I liked the game and have been playing quite a bit myself for these past years, I thought the Mascot dressphere would be suitable for these three!" she said with a grin.
"Cool!" dean said before lavender (moogle) dragged him into the ball The Music was pretty good , Dumbledore had opted to use a DJ rather than hire the wierd sisters again, So their was a bit more variety than the last ball. n fact the DJ took one look at the foursome clad in chicago costumes and decided to play around with them a bit,He put on the song "Nowadays/Hothoney Rag" and let them go, The dance floor cleared off and Lindsay and Hermione started dancing with their partners before ditching them to dance in sych with each other. for the singing portion, there was not too much moovement, but they picked up the pace when it came to the Rag, after a few phrases, they grabbed hold of Ron and he started twirling both of them simultaniously, Leaving Poor Harry to sit there and look forlorn, Like Amos. eventually They broke off into pairs and Harry got to dance. But by that time other people had started dancing and few were paying close attention.
One that was paying close attention though, was one Draco malfoy. He had Never seen the Grangers in anything but modest robes, so this was a bit of a shock, but a pleasant shock. He decied to try to dance with one of them, but he Knew Hermione was out of the Question, she hated him too much, but Lindsay was new, and would probably not have a grudge yet, so he decided to ask her.
He was Dressed as a muggle coyboy, best thing he could think of on short notice,he had not actually planned on going to the ball until that day. because yesterday Pansy ahd stopped bothering him about a date and gave up on him, so she had another date and he figured he could enjoy the ball without hassle.
"Hello, Lindsay is it? I don't believe we've been properly introduced. I'm Draco Malfoy."
"Hello Malfoy"
"Please, call me Draco"
"Then you may call me Lindsay"
"well, Lindsay,could I have this dance?" He asked with the most charming form of his famous smirk.
"Sure, I don't see why not, Harry's just gone to get me some punch, and by the looks of it, Luna's cornered him, He'll be awhile!"
At this He took her out onto the dance floor. The DJ put on the song "somewhere out there" by our Lady Peace, So Draco Pulled Lindsay Close to him for the slowdance.
"I'm so glad this DJ favors Muggle music, i've not found too much wizarding stuff that I like." Lindsay said quietly.
"I agree" draco replied into her ear. "Have I told you that you look really beautiful tonight?" he whispered Lindsay blushed "No, but thankyou." They danced the rest of the song in silence, occasionally Lindsay lifted her head from his shoulder to look into his grey eyes that, for the time being, looked like hers.
He liked her eyes. He knew they were probably temporarily magically discuised, but still, not very many people aside from himself pulled off the smouldering-grey-eyes thing.
The song ended and Lindsay felt herself being rudely pulled from his arms. she looked around and saw Harry standing Nehind her, grabbing her by the wrist. She apologised to Malfoy and then adressedharry Angrily.
"WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU"RE DOING???" she asked in a low harsh tone.
"saving you from ferret boy back there!"
"Huh? What's wrong with Draco, He seems perfectly nice to me!"
"That's cause he's probably trying to get into you're pants!"
"Harry you're exaggerating! he was nice, well spoken and charming."
"AHA! so he WAS trying to sleep with you!"
Lindsay sighed defeated, She knew that was not the case and that was enough for her.
"Just do me a favor adn stay away from him okay?" Harry asked, he looked genuinely concerned.
"sure, whatever, I've been avoiding him all term till now, it won't be hard to continue. don't worry."
"Okay. So you wanna dance?"
"Sure!" and with that they went onto the dance floor and stayed there for most of the remainder of the ball.
"Class! As promised, we'll be studying Glamour Charms today. These charms are used to alter one's physical appearance through transfiguration and should prove quite useful in your costumes!"
