Chapter4
That night...
Draco was dressed as a masked prince charming. He didn't want everyone to know who he was.
He went into the great hall and was surprised. It looked like a ballroom. It had this huge staircase that separated halfway up. The girls from the right and guys from the left were coming down from them. He came down by himself and headed to the punchbowl. For some strange reason, he felt really thirsty. He laughed at some costumes. Some were cats and dogs, angels and devils, muggles and wizards and he even caught someone in a Voldemort disguise and another wearing a Dumbledore costume. People these days! Jeez! Almost halfway through the ball he had danced with witches, angels, devils and once a girl dressed as a pumpkin. He couldn't help but laugh. He headed for Blaise who was standing by the punch bowl.
"Hey, how's your night?" Draco asked.
"Alright I guess."
"Did you ask anyone to the ball?"
"Parkinson asked me. Since I didn't have a date I said yes. But after she did Padma Patil asked. I fancy her and had to turn her down coz I already had a date. Worst mistake I had to ever done in my life."
"Ha ha. At least I know Parkinson' not after me."
Suddenly he noticed Blaise staring at the stair case. He looked as well.
A girl was walking down the staircase. All eyes were on her as they watched this mystery girl.
Draco couldn't see her face because her half of it was covered by a mask.
She was wearing an elegant white off the shoulder dress that made Draco's heart beat. She had also magical transparent wings at her back which made her look like an angel.She reached the bottom of the steps.
Draco headed towards her. His mouth was all dry of nervousness. That had never happened in Draco Malfoys life. He took her hand and kissed it. She smiled and Draco could feel his heart thump.
"Would you like to dance?" he asked nervously.
She smiled and took his hand. They danced together for what seemed like hours. They stopped and he led her out onto the balcony. They stayed there talking for hours.
"I still feel like ive met you before." He said.
"I know. I think we have." She whispered.
"How could I have met you and not know who you are now?"
"Maybe we've met but we don't know each other. You get what I mean?"
"Yeah. We've met but we're not close or anything."
"Yeah. That's a perfect way to put it."
"So, do you have a name to go with the beauty in front of my eyes?" he said smoothly.
"Well, only if you have a name to the handsome young man in front of me." She replied smiling.
"Aw, but that would ruin the surprise. We still have a good few hours before the end of the ball."
"Okay then. We can tell each other our names after the ball." She said.
"Fine." He said pouting.
She giggled. He quickly disregarded his pout and laughed.
"Are you sure we've met? Im pretty sure I'd remember someone like you."
"It seems we have. I don't know. Maybe we haven't and I don't know. Seen each other in the halls. Or we could always just think the other is someone we know." She said smartly.
"Okay, so. Would you like to dance once more, my fair maiden?"
"Of course, kind sir."
The music in the great hall changed to a nice slow song.
Draco POV
(Authors note: for better effect listen to 'kissing you' from the Romeo and Juliet soundtrack. You know the one that starred Leonardo DiCaprio?)
For I could stand
A thousand trials
The strong will never fall
And while she stands without you
My soul cries
She placed her head on his chest. He held her close. He could feel her breath mingling with his own. He could feel her warmth spread through out his body. He felt like he needed her with him all the time. It just felt so right.
Heed the earth
Is full of pain
Oh, oh
The aching
He felt his heart beating faster and faster as every second went by. He could hear his own heart now. He was hoping and praying she didn't notice his heartbeat. He felt so right. He couldn't take it anymore.
Coz I...im kissing you
Oh
I...im kissing you, oh
Touch me dear
Pure and true
He stared longingly at her eyes. Hoping she was feeling what he was.
Give to me the river
Coz I...im kissing you
Oh
I...im kissing you
Oh
He lifted her chin up so she was staring strait at him. He leaned in to kiss her. Their lips only centimeters apart...
