Hermione's POV
"Harry asked me out! I can't believe Harry asked me out!" I told Ginny when I got back to the girls dormitory.
"He did! That's wonderful! What are you going to wear? Can I help you?"
"Sure. I was thinking about my pink dress."
"That would be good, but I think you will look better in this dress, I'll let you borrow it."
Ginny pulled out an extravagant soft blue dress made from the prettiest fabric I've ever seen wit beadwork all over it. It had matching blue high heels that looked a lot like Cinderella's glass slippers.
"Ginny, it's beautiful."
"You can also borrow my silver necklace!"
"Really! Thank you so much! I'll look perfect for my first date!"
"Now, now, enough of that. Lets do your hair and makeup!" she said with a squeal of laughter.
When Ginny was finished I had soft curls in my hair without the frizzyness (that took a lot of hairspray!) and some blush that made my cheeks ever so rosy, a bit of mascara, smoky eye shadow, and a glossy red lip.
"Are going to be down soon?" asked Harry
"In the next five years would be nice" Ron chimed in.
"In a minute, I just have to get on my shoes!"
Harry's POV
Hermione came down the steps into the common room where I awaited her with grace. She was drop dead gorgeous! I hope I can keep my jaw from dropping! She looked like a princess going to the ball, as I looked down at my measly dress shirt, tie, and jeans.
" I hope I didn't dress up too much!"
"oh, no. you look beautiful!"
"Why thank you Harry. You don't look so bad yourself."
