CHAPTER 17: The Founder's Ball
It was the night of the ball and they were all in dress robes of various colours. The girls had their hair up – Hermione's similar to the style when she was at the Yule Ball – the guys were just looking nervous. Harry, Ginny, Hermione and Ron were walking into the hall when Harry caught a glimpse of Shadow and Malfoy.
Shadow looked stunning in shinny black and Malfoy was in velvet dress robes similar to the Yule Ball. Shadow was holding onto Draco's arm and had a dreamy look on her face, staring up at Draco. Pansy was near by giving Shadow the evils and Crabbe and Goyle – partner less – were walking behind like gormless zombies.
The dance started with Dumbledore giving a speech then the heads of houses talked a little about each founder. Suddenly the Weird Sisters appeared from nowhere and started playing. Ginny forced Harry to dance and Ron and Hermione were bickering as Ron kept treading on her toes. Raven and George were dancing quite weirdly when George went flying into a punch bowl. Raven roared with laughter, then George joined in. Raven then took George to 'freshen up'… and they never returned. When Ron pointed this out to Fred he just rolled his eyes and walked off.
Harry sat down when a slow song came on – much to Ginny's annoyance – and started watching Malfoy and Shadow. She was right up against his chest and Draco had wrapped his arms around her, tightly, as though scared of losing her. He closed his eyes and rested his head on hers. Harry hated this with a passion, he was glad Shadow was happy, but he knew for a fact that Sirius would murder Malfoy on the spot if he were watching this. So he had to do something about it.
Harry looked over to the teacher's table and Professor Dark gave him a nod and a smileand she went to talk to Malfoy. Suddenly, a fast song came on and Shadow came to sit by them.
"Where's Malfoy?" Ginny asked her.
"Professor Dark wanted him to fetch his wand from her office," Shadow said, "it broke earlier and she took it to fix it,"
Harry made his excuses and left. He caught up with Malfoy and stayed a few feet behind him, making sure he was unaware of his presence. Malfoy went into Professor Dark's office and Harry snuck in after and slammed the door, turning the key behind him.
"Potter," Malfoy said, turning around and facing him, "what do you want?" he snarled.
"Oh, nothing," Harry said, slyly and locked the door so it was just Harry and a wand less Draco….
Ok, really OOC for Harry, so I apologize for that too! But he does go back to normal! Thanks for reading, please review and if I don't update for a while please don't give up on 'Shadow Black'!
Love,
Raven Hope
