Chapter 11: Of A Costume Ball and A Blooming Romance

Kinetic Tower…

Harry was fixing his outfit in his room. Lily had come over earlier and given Ginny her outfit, and Harry had not been able to see it yet. She had also given Harry his outfit.

Meanwhile, Hermione was glamouring herself to give her black sleek straight hair and full Egyptian makeup. Ron was fixing his outfit and walked into Hermione's room. "How did you persuade me to wear a skirt again?"

"Because you love me, and I think you look very handsome." Hermione said. She put the necklace on and stood up. "Well, what do you think of me?"

"Mione, you look stunning." Ron grabbed her back. "I reckon I'll have to fight them off you tonight."

Ron, I think that's going a little too far…" Hermione said.

"No it really isn't. Just a minute, I'll get a second opinion." Ron opened his door and walked over to Harry's room. 2 minutes later, they both walked in.

"Wow, Hermione is that really you? You look so different." Harry said, jaw dropping.

"Should I take that as a compliment or an insult?" Hermione smiled.

"Compliment. I mean, you look gorgeous. Why do you want to go with a guy in a skirt?" Harry poked Ron.

"Shut up Harry." Ron said.

"What ever. I'm going to go get Ginny. You go on ahead. We'll meet you and my parents down there." Harry walked back across the common room and into his room. He knocked on Ginny's door from his room. She opened it slightly. You ready yet Gin? It's just gone 6."

"Yeah. I'm ready, but I just need one minute more, ok?" Harry nodded and Ginny closed the door. Harry stood in front of his mirror and checked his suit once more. His hair was still unruly, but he doubted anything could tame it. He straightened his mask, which covered his eyes. A small cough from behind alerted him that Ginny had finished. He turned around and gasped. She was wearing a silvery white ball gown, her dark red hair was up in a neat bun with just a few strands hanging down and on her feet she wore charmed shoes to make them look like glass. In her hair she wore a small tiara and she wore a mask that was the same colour as her dress which covered just her eyes. In short, the perfect Cinderella for her Prince Charming.

She smiled. "Well, Harry, are you going to say anything, or stand around gawking at me?"

"Sorry, it's just… you look absolutely stunning. You look perfect."

"You're just saying that." Ginny blushed slightly.

"No I'm not. I really mean it. I think that I'll have to keep you covered up, because everyone is going to want to dance with you." Ginny smiled.

"Thank you Harry, but I can defend myself. Shall we then?" Harry offered his arm and Ginny took it. They proceeded down to the great hall where there were many different costumes from all years. Even some of the teachers had worn them. The music had began playing, which was to consist of both magical and muggle bands. 'I Bet That You Look Good On The Dancefloor' by Artic Monkeys was playing as they entered.

"Wow, look at everyone's costumes." Ginny said. There seemed to be characters from every time period it seemed, and nearly everyone was dancing.

"Care for a dance, mi'lady?" Harry asked, bowing.

Ginny giggled. "Why yes kind sir." They walked onto the edge of the dance floor as the song changed to 'Everywhere' By Michelle Branch. Being slow-ish, partners got together. Harry held Ginny close to him as they moved to the music.

Turn it inside out so I can see

The part of you that drifting over me

And when I wake your never there

And when I sleep your everywhere, you're everywhere

Just tell me how I got this far

And tell me why your here and who you are

Cos every time I look you're never there

And every time I sleep your everywhere

Cos you're everywhere to me

When I close my eyes it's you I see

You're everything I know that makes me believe, I'm not alone

I'm not alone

I recognise the way you make me feel

Cos I think that you might not be real

A sense of now the waters getting deep

I try to wash the pain away from me, away from me

Cos you're everywhere to me

When I close my eyes it's you I see

You're everything I know that makes me believe, I'm not alone

I'm not alone

I'm not alone

When I touch your hand

Its then I understand

The beauty that's within

It's now that we begin

You always like my way

There never comes a day

No matter where I go

I always feel you so

Cos you're everywhere to me

When I close my eyes it's you I see

You're everything I know that makes me believe, I'm not alone

I'm not alone

Cos your everywhere to me

And when I catch my breath it's you I breathe

You're everything I know that makes me believe, I'm not alone

I'm not alone

Only everyone I see

So tell me, do you see me?

"Harry, you are everywhere to me." Ginny said softly. The music turned into a more upbeat tempo and Harry and Ginny started dancing faster.

Ron looked over the crowd. Everyone was all dancing, but he hadn't seen Harry or Ginny yet. Then through a gap in the crowd, he saw a familiar flash of red hair. He waited until Hermione got back, then they made their way through to find them.

"Ginny, is that you?" Hermione asked when they reached them.

Ginny smiled. "Of course it's me, if Harry was dancing with some other red head, I might get quite jealous."

"Well, would you get jealous if I did?" A voice said behind them. Harry turned to find it was Lily. "Ginny, didn't I tell you that outfit would look good?" Ginny nodded.

"Wow Ginny. Maybe I should have come with you." James joked, who had just appeared.

Harry could see the Charmed Ones with their dates coming over too. They walked to find a table and they all sat down. Piper and Phoebe had used the same outfits from when they travelled to meet Charlotte Warren, and Paige had made a dress similar to them. Leo was in his army uniform, Remus in the 17th century clothing and Sirius was the most dressed as Jack Sparrow. He really had gone all the way and the only way to tell that it was Sirius was his grey eyes. He even had the hat, and didn't seem like he was going to remove for the whole evening.

"Great costume Sirius." Harry said to his godfather.

"Aye, it is." Sirius grinned. James and Remus groaned.

"He's been doing that all afternoon. Speaking like that." Remus explained.

"There be nothing wrong with the way I talk, Savvy?" Sirius said to Remus. Remus just shook his head.

"I swear, if he keeps this up all night, I might go crazy." Remus said. A song by the weird sisters came on. "Paige, would you like to dance?"

"Yes I would. Leave pirate boy with this lot. Sorry." Remus walked into the crowd with Paige. Lily and James left with Harry and Ginny, Ron and Hermione, leaving Phoebe and Sirius alone.

"How long are you going to keep this up for?" Phoebe asked.

"As long as I can." Sirius grinned, reverting back to normal talk. "How long did you say before someone hits me?"

"Before midnight. And remember its 10 galleons."

"10 galleons be able to get me a whole night with a beautiful lady, maybe you be that lady. Savvy?" He winked as he started his pirate mode again.

"You have got to be the cheesiest pirate I've ever heard of." Phoebe said, knowing that a quote would be next.

"But you have heard of me." Sirius said. "Now, missy, will you dance with Cap'n Jack Sparrow?"

"Of course, Captain." She emphasised the Captain. They danced next to Piper and Leo and kept going for 4 hours straight. When they finally left the floor, they found everyone but the Kinetics sitting down.

"So, still talking like a pirate?" Lily asked.

"Aye lass. But I think you're forgettin' one thing. I'm Captain Jack Sparrow. Savvy?"

Lily hit him. "That is bloody annoying now Sirius."

"Lils, you couldn't have waited until after midnight could you?" Sirius spoke normally.

"Why?" Lily asked, confused.

"Cos he said he could keep it up all night and I said that by midnight someone would hit him because of it. So, 10 galleons please." Phoebe held her hand out.

"I haven't got it on me. When we leave, I'll get it from the Hollow." Sirius told her, using the short name for Godric's Hollow.

"Fine." Phoebe said. "Now, do you want to keep dancing?"

"Yeah. Bye guys!" He dragged Phoebe back into the middle of the dancefloor.

So, what do you think of Harry and Ginny's costumes? Harry is Prince Charming in case you couldn't get it. Ginny's outfit is similar to that Hilary Duff wore and Harry's like what Chad Michael Murray wore in A Cinderella Story. Watched it the other day and I just couldn't resist. Well, be waiting for part two, I'll be getting it out in the next few days. Or today, you never know, lol!
