The Package
That morning at breakfast, Ginny received an unusual package. There was a letter also. It said:
My
sweet Ginny,
Your
father and I wanted to give you this. I hope you enjoy
it!
Love,
Mum
Ps. you'll need to enlarge the package before you open it.
"Hmmmmm, I wonder what it is?" Ginny said after reading the letter.
"I don't know, but will you just kill the suspense and open it already!" Hermione asked eagerly.
Ginny enlarged it and opened the box to find a, neatly folded, piece of cloth. She pulled it out of the box and what she saw made her gasp! It was a beautiful, white spaghetti strapped dress with sequins and beads on it. The dress was to die for.
"Oh my God! Ginny you have to wear that to the dance! I'll help you do your makeup and hair. Ginny you're going to look drop dead gorgeous! So, who are you going to the dance with anyway?" Said Hermione very fast.
"You'll see when we get there!" Ginny said
"Oh, Please, please, please tell me Ginny! I need to know!" Hermione pleaded.
"Fine, I'll tell you." Ginny said leaning in to whisper in Hermione's ear. "Draco Malfoy."
"WHAT!" Hermione practically screamed. Everyone in the Great Hall stopped what they were doing and looked at Hermione. Her face was now the color of Ginny's hair. Slowly, they all went back to their conversations.
"Hermione, Please don't tell anyone! Especially Ron! You know he would react. He would go completely berserk!" Ginny said.
"Ya I can see your point, but" She lowered her voice, "Malfoy?"
"He's really nice once you get to know him. I mean, did you know he likes to star gaze?" asked Ginny.
"No, I didn't. Ginny, I'm just trying to protect you. I feel like I have the responsibility just as much as Ron." She explained.
"I know Hermione, I know." Ginny said pulling her friend into a hug.
By the way guys, this is a dream that Julie is having.
