After a few round of dance, Harry and Cho went to get some drinks, where they met Fred and George. "Nice to meet you Harry," said the twins. They took turn to shake Harry's hand and then Cho's hand. "You must Lo Hang," said Fred. "No way. It's Ho Fang," argued George. "Right Harry?" George continued. "No. It's Cho Chang you idiots," replied Harry, who was annoyed at their behaviour. Cho, who was just giggling seemed to find them amusing. "Oh. Aren't you the ex-Ravenclaw seeker?" asked Fred. "Yeah I am. And you must be Fred & George, the ex-Gryffindor beaters," Cho replied graciously. "And the best in history too," said George arrogantly. "Yeah right," said a voice behind them which Harry had not heard since three years ago. It was Oliver Wood. "Oliver, How corking to see you?" Harry, Fred and George took turn to shake Oliver's hand before his attention turned to Cho. "Ms. Chang right? The ex-Ravenclaw seeker?" asked Wood. "Yeah," and she shook his hand. "Back in my third year, you asked me to knock her off her broom and not be a gentleman remember?" asked Harry. "Yeah. I did remember. I was too obsessed in winning the cup. But then again, you should not let your feelings get the better of you in quidditch." "That's because you don't have a girlfriend," said Fred jokingly.
The ball ended at two past midnight. Even then, some people were still full of energy. Of course, that some people referred people like Neville, Crabbe and Goyle who didn't manage to find a dance partners at all. Everyone had either went home or returned to their dormitories by three in the morning. Everyone except Harry and Cho. They had fallen asleep by the lake where Harry had planned a romantic night for Cho.
"Professor, we couldn't find Harry Potter in the boys dormitory. We think he's been kidnapped," said Ron hastily.
"And we've checked the girls dormitory too," added Neville. With that, Ron gave him a hard nudge. "You're not suppose to tell her that Hermione brought us inside the girls's dormitory," Ron whispered softly.
"What? You're telling me you BOYS went up to the GIRLS went up to the girls' dormitory. Didn't you ever read the History Of Hogwarts? It says that the four founders find that girls are more trustworthy than boys," shouted Professor McGonagall.
"No Professor, I went up to check and told them that Harry wasn't there. And In fact, I did read the History Of Hogwarts," said Hermione proudly.
"That's nice of you Ms. Granger. So tell me does electricity works in here?"
"No because there's a lot of magic going on in the air-"
"Hermione! Aren't we here to report on Harry's absence?" Ron interrupted.
"Oh yes Professor. So what do you suggest we do?" asked Hermione.
"I suggest you go to sleep and get changed," said Professor McGonagall, spotting them still in their dress robes.
"But-"
"What really makes you thinks Harry Potter had been kidnapped? This castl is protected by ancient magic that doesn't allow any death eaters or you-know-who himself to enter. And he is by far more mature than any of you. Except Ms. Granger maybe. I think he can take care of himself without you bothering. So please go to sleep," said Professor McGonagall angrily.
And neither of them opened their mouth anymore.
