A/N: Blaise and Pansy aren't really a favorite pairing. But I decided to put this drabble here because it's a Christmas Drabble. It's written for the Pairing up the Character drabble competition. Pansy was the character this week. Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter. JK Rowling does.
Pansy was standing at the sidelines at the Yule Ball with her arms crossed. Draco had avoided dancing with her again, and she was furious with him for it. Why did he ask her to go with him tonight?
"Want to dance?" Pansy turned at the sound of her best friend, Blaise's voice.
"Yes!" A smile spread across her face as she took his hand. "You look handsome tonight, but then again you always do," she said as a slow song started.
Blaise actually smiled, though he gazed down into her eyes suddenly. "Thanks… you look beautiful too. Where's Draco?"
Pansy rolled her eyes. "I could care less about him right now." She peered up at her best friend curiously. "Why don't you have a date, Blaise? I know you could get one if you actually tried asking a girl out."
He shrugged and looked around before answering. "I wanted to ask somebody…but they already had a date."
She shifted so she could glance around the room to guess who it was. "Who? You could've stolen her from him!"
Blaise shook his head. "She was my best friend's date."
Pansy frowned. "But I'm your best friend's date-" Her mouth formed an o as she took a step back nervously. "It's…me?"
He nodded. "I can't do anything about that though."
"I'm not happy with him!" Pansy blurted out quickly without thinking.
Blaise gave her a sharp look before smiling and backing away. "I should go. It was nice dancing with you."
