Hey everyone! Thanks to everyone who reviewed. By the way, grammar is not my best thing, so forgive me if I make some mistakes. All belongs to Rowling.

"We are going to…. have a ball, in two weeks! This is the first annual back-school-ball [A/N I know, pretty cheesy but all I could think of! Although only fourth years and above are to attend, they have to bring a date. I recommend you bringing dates from a different house, so you would get to know them better, but the same house is fine."

The whole hall was crowding with excitement. Girls started to think of ideas for dresses, hair, make up, and the boys were already asking girls. Ginny, with her long, wavy fire red hair, and her curvy figure, got asked from three boys in two minutes. She rejected them all, eyeing Harry.

"Wow, I can't believe we're having a BALL!!!" said Ron.

"But are you going Ron? They say you have to have a date. Tough job… for you" teased Harry, whose hair grew longer and messier.

"Hardy har har. Very funny. Well who are you going with Harry?" asked Ron

"Uh… I'maskingGinny" Harry answered so fast that they didn't understand what he was saying.

Unfortunately, Ron caught the "Ginny" part. "WHAT?! You're asking my SISTER?"

When Hermione heard that, she felt depressed. Her face expression was impassive though. She did not show any way that she liked Harry, but inside, she longed for him.

Everyone in the Gryffindor table turned around, glancing at Harry, then Ginny. Ginny's face got as red as her hair, and Harry was as pale as a ghost.

Sensing that it was going to be chaos, Hermione randomly said, "I don't think I'm going."

Now that took the attention of the boys. "WHAT?!" they exclaimed.

"You have to go!"

"We're not going without you!"

"You're going to miss out!"

They shouted at her, shocked that she isn't going.

"Well… no one's going to ask me, the bushy haired bookworm." said Hermione.

Now it was Ginny's turn to say… "WHAT?!"

"You are not a bushy haired bookworm… maybe the bookworm part but you are not bushy haired! It used to be, but now they come down in graceful curls, same color as your eyes and your figure is perfect. You are beautiful, smart, courageous, has common sense, and can think for herself. Not a lot of girls can do that nowadays. Of course someone's going to ask you."

Blushing, Hermione turned away, and ate.

Later that night.

Professor Dumbledore himself took Hermione and Draco to their head room. They stopped in front of a portrait of an elegant woman, with blonde hair, and in clothes like princesses.

The woman, suddenly full with life, said, "The password's Unicorn Hair"

The portrait opened, and the three of them stepped inside.

Hermione gasped in surprise. The common room was beautiful, in rich shades of red and green, accented with pure gold. There were two giant arm chair, one red, one green, and a luxurious sofa. There were three doors, one labeled Draco, one labeled Hermione, and one not labeled. She took that as the bathroom. The fireplace was burning, and the whole picture looked fantastic.

Scoffing, Draco said," This is… satisfactory. Nothing compared to the Malfoy Manor."

Hermione muttered, "Showoff"

Clearly ignoring her, Draco opened the door that had his name carved in gold. The room was even more beautiful than the common room. It was in shades of dark green, with white splattered across the room.

Hermione's room was the same, except for the colors. Hers was red and gold.

Professor Dumbledore, still there, asked them to come out. "As you know, we will be having a ball. But you two will be required to get along and go with each other, as the head boy and girl."

Hermione's eyes grew large, and you could see that she was not happy at all.

Draco, on the inside, was "Finally, a chance to be with her."

Before Hermione could say anything, Dumbledore greeted them bye, and reminded them that they had classes tomorrow.

So that's the second chapter. It's not that good right now, but I promise it will get better. I'm sorry the chapters are not long. x It would be really great if you reviewed. Thanks! (P.S Please bear with me and my mistakes. Thanks!)
