Chapter 4
The back to class dance.
We all hurry up to the 5th floor and find our painting. It's a Picture of some of the Greek, or is that roman? Gods. Crap I forgot to wait to hear the password. I will just wait… Then Justin came up behind me and whispered in my ear. "forgot to get the password again?" Then he says, Verteaga! And the portrait opens.
The hufflepuff common room is full of comfy warm couches in gold of course. It's my home and I love it here. I ran up the tower into the girls dormitories. As soon as I hit the dorms I start getting unclothed to get in the shower. Considering guys can't get into the girls dorms us girls are used to doing that when we want to get into the shower. If the guys knew we did that they might work harder at getting up here I think to myself as I jump into the shower.
After my shower I dried my hair and put it into a stylish hairstyle. Putting on my beautiful black and gold halter dress. I look good, I think to myself. I put on some eyeliner, mascara, and eye shadow and head back down into the Common Room.
Some older students are already down there just relaxing and checking up before the dance. You find your good friend, Leila, and start chatting.
"I am so happy that they finally let us have a back to class dance for the older students this year." Leila says to me. I know that she really wants to get Justin's attention and I think she's gonna get it in the kickin' dress she's wearing!
"Justin is going to love you in that dress" I confide in her. That seemed to make her brighten up.
"Are you sure it's not to… sluttish?" she questioned.
"No… It's sexy."
Meanwhile
Harry and Ron are getting into their suits.
"good thing I don't have to wear that same suit I wore to the Yule ball. Remember that thing. It was so ugly!" Ron says.
"I don't think you could wear it if you could. You have totally grown since then. It might burst at the seams!" Harry joked. It was true. In the last two years Ron had probably grown a good 6 inches.
"Are you calling me fat?" Ron joked.
"Well of course I am!" Harry replied. Both of the guys stopped joking and finished getting ready.
"Do you think that Kaylee will come up to me?" Harry asked
"No you have to go to her my friend. She will have many other guys trying to dance with her. If parvati is telling the truth than she would be happy to dance with you. From there man it's up to you. Just don't do anything I wouldn't do!" Ron answered.
"Is there anything you wouldn't do? I know about Susan mister I'm innocent." Harry said.
"Ah. That was…. Fun. I still don't believe that you haven't been with anyone! I thought it would be you before me but I beat you to the punch." Ron said.
"All that might change in the course of the next few months…. My friend."
Back to me
Some more gals and guys come walking down the stairs in the next 15 minutes. I know that I am looking good cuz I am really getting looked at. So is Leila, I know that was a boost in her self-esteem. Just then Justin comes down the stairs; he cleans up nice i think to myself "yay He's looking at Leila in that dress." I don't think she noticed though. I look at the clock its 7:45 I grab Kels and Leila and we start heading downstairs. The Great hall looks spectacular at these dances. All the tables are gone and banners to. Instead the place is decorated in streamers and fun party lights, there is even a bar serving nonalcoholic drinks of course. I know someone around here has rum for some good Coke and Rum... I don't think I want that tonight though. I head towards the bar, and ask for a Dr. Pepper and 2 Mountain Dews. I wait for the drinks and bring them to my friends who are both scanning the room for guys. Leila of course is only looking for Justin but Kels came into this year without any crushes (Fred kind of killed that) so she's doing a good, Hmmm who changed over the summer scan.
"Enjoying your scan girls?" I ask my two friends and hand them there dews.
"Oh, yes incredibly. Look at Dean! He's looking fine this year…" kels answers.
"Good for you then. He's single! Plus he's looking this way!" Leila replies.
"He's looking at K and you know it." Kels adds.
"Well I don't want dean. Though I admit he's looking fine. Tonight is all about Harry Potter." I say calming my friend down.
"Really? You after potter…" I hear a voice say to me. I turn around. It's Draco. "Yes Draco. I want to date Harry Potter."
"That shouldn't be too hard, considering he's been fancying at you for years." Draco laughs. Then I feel dracos lips on mine. I push him away quickly.
"Draco get off me before your dog finds us and bites me" I answer to Draco's kiss.
"Ha-ha very funny." Draco says and walks away.
"I don't believe that slime ball came up and kissed you." Leila says.
"It's the second time today actually." I reply then telling her about the chariot ride." Considering this is a dance I am going to well… Dance!" I finally cover. I think Leila's shocked look will go away in time….
Getting someone to dance with me isn't the hard part. It's getting a good dancer to dance with me. Wow this guys good. I haven't seen him yet though… must turn around…. Then a slow song comes on. I turn to my dance partner. Damn those Weasley's can dance! It's Ron who I am dancing with. He's cute now that he's taller. He towers over me. Which not many guys can do considering I'm 5'10". From here I think Ron is at least 6'2". cuz my head can go perfectly on his shoulder. Where is Harry, I think to myself? If Ron is here then he must be nearby. Why can't I just enjoy this dance?
"Enjoying yourself?" I ask Ron. He then leans in and kisses my softly.
"Now I am." He answers. He then comes in to kiss me again. I kiss him back. We start to French kiss when I hear someone holler.
"RON WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING!" shit. It's Harry. Now what am I going to do…
"Umm nothing." Ron says innocently. I start to breakdown.
"I didn't want this to happen. If you weren't already told, I love you Harry." I moan then I walk off.
"Oh. Shit." I hear one of the boys say. I couldn't figure out which one. Harry is really upset though. Ron is angry. Why did this have to happen? I was just going with the flow, and that happened to include kissing my crushes best friend. Great here comes Hermione…
She comes up and slaps me across the face. "Now look what you've done. You made my two best friends against each other. I thought you wanted Harry. You could have easily got him without kissing Ron"
"WAIT just a second. Ron kissed me. Got it? I didn't start it I still love Harry. Ok? I love him."
"Looked very mutual with your tongues in each other."
"Well maybe I didn't want it to happen but it did. And there is nothing I can do to fix that it happened." I say and walk out of the great hall. Ron and Harry beat me out here though. There are in the entrance hall looking like they might just tear each other apart.
"I'm sorry that this happened. Please don't let this tear you two apart. I'm just a slut that shouldn't be cared about" You say as you pass by. They both turned and looked at me.
"Kaylee, I love you too." Harry says. "I just didn't know that Ron had feelings for you so when I saw you with him I thought that it had to be you that liked him. And my heart broke."
"I'm sorry this happened Kaylee." Ron mutters. I just turn back towards the stairs and head back up to the common room. Wow both of them wanted me. Well I can't go out with Harry without breaking Ron's heart. Never thought that this would happen. I head back up to the common room that is full of younger students.
"Back already? What happened" a younger girl asks.
"Just some boy troubles." I answer.
