"MIONEEEEEEEEE!" a shout came from outside her dorm door. She opened it cautiously, not knowing what would be behind it. "HELP ME!" a rumpled Ron stood before her, looking as though he was about to cry.

"Oh, Ron. Whats wrong now? I only just fixed your bow for you!" she whined, she didnt have time to help him get dressed, she had to get ready herself! Why did he not understand this?

"How do you fasten this jacket, I think its some fiddly muggle coat to be honest. I mean seriously, where do these go?" Ron asked as he picked at the buttons with his grubby fingernails. Hermione sighed and explained to him that the buttons go inside the button holes that are on the other side.

"Wait a minute, there are shirts and jackets with buttons on in the wizarding world as well!" Hermione couldn't believe he could be so dense.

"Hey Hermione, you ready to go?" Ginny asked her when she'd made her way back into the girls dorm.

"Just have to get my dress on, hair and make up's all done." she smiled at her friend.

"Well here let me help you."

Draco watched as all the stairs moved around, and not one was coming towards their end of the corridor. He was muttering and cursing under his breath he was surprised Blaise didn't ask him. He simply couldn't be late for Hermione, he didn't want to leave her waiting more to the point. Him and Blaise we're meant to be on their to pick up her and Ginny and they should be there in about two minutes. But with the way the stairs were playing up he doubted he'd be there by the time the ball was ending. Draco played with his tie, he was becoming more and more nervous by the second. Hermione had been right though, his suit really did make his eyes look good!

"Quick, jump on!" Blaise shouted as a stairway came towards them.

Draco seeing his chance pushed past the all of the younger years out of his way, knocking most of them over in the process and managed to jump on just as it was about to swing away.

"Close one!" he laughed.

"Way to go Draco, I think you made that second year cry! You're meant to be a prefect!" Blaise laughed along with him and they both watched as the younger stundents all turned to glare at them at once.

As the stairway was about to latch itself onto another corridor, the two males ran up the stairs and hopped off. Knowing this was a way they could get to the Gryffindor common room, they ran for their lives.

"We. Cant. Be. Late!" Blaise gasped in between breaths as they rounded a sharp corner.

"Oh, Mione. Come on we're going to be late. Lets get going!" Ginny rushed as she zipped the back of her friends dress up. The two girls picked up their shrugs and quickly made their way into the common room where two males were waiting for them.

"Ginerva. That dress is far too low cut! Here let me go get the jumper mum knitted me last year! You can wear that!" Ron said. Harry just looked at him as if to say 'Ron, shut up now.'

"Well, I think she looks wonderful." Harry smiled at her. Ginny did infact look wonderful, she was wearing a tight green velvet dress which reached the floor. Although they couldnt be seen she was also wearing green heels. Her hair which she normally left down, had been straighted and curled at the bottom so that it bobbed up and down whenever she walked. Her make up was also green. With a dark red lipstick to stand out.

All of a sudden, there came a knock at the portal to the corridor. The two girls turned to each other and smiled, knowing who would be behind it.

"So we'll see you two at the ball?" Ginny asked Harry and Ron as she made her way out. The two nodded and she took this as her signal to leave.

Never before had he seen her looking so beautiful. Her curls hand been pinned up at the top, and they had gently cascaded around her neck. She was wearing a creamish coloured dress, which had no sleeves and puffed out at the bottom. Small pearls patterned their way in a curl on her top half, and a matching necklace hung around her neck. Her eyes sparkled almost as much as her dress did when it caught the light. All Draco could do was smile.

"Goodevening madamouiselle." he whispered into her ear and bowed down. She placed her small hand in his and he kissed it gently.

"Goodeveing monsieur." she giggled. "Are you ready to go?"

"As ready as I'll ever be." he held her left hand in his own and wrapped his other hand around her petite figure.

He loved the way she fitted so perfectly next to him. They were like two pieces of a jigsaw puzzle, there were no other pieces they could be put with, but each other.They walked down the many stairs together, not uttering a word, just enjoying the moment the world had granted them. It wasnt too long before they were stood infront of the great hall doors. Cautiously they opened the doors, but gasped when they saw the hall. The usual stone walls were now covered in black, orange and green streamers. The ceiling that was normally light, was completely black and studded with stars. The tables had all gone and in their place were a few round green tables, covered in orange decorations and had some halloween snacks on. The rest of the hall was taken up by a large stage and a dance floor. Hermione felt Draco's grip on her hand tighten as they walked in. The pair walked straight to the dance floor. As they did, a band appeared on the stage and began to play. Draco span her around and twisted her this way and that along to the music. They danced like that for hours, stopping to have the odd snack and drink every so often. As the clock chimed midnight, the band stopped playing, and were replaced by an orchestra who started to play more slow songs. Many of the students groaned and complained, but our couple didnt. Instead, Draco placed his hand on her waist, and she put hers on his shoulder and rested her head in the crook of his neck. They swayed gently to the music, not wanting it to stop.

"Hermione Granger, I love you." Draco looked at her.

"I love you too Draco." she smiled.
