"Jeez, do those boys always have to pull pranks?" All of us girls were sitting in the girls lounge in the dorm.
"I know, we can't even tell the principle about it. He just says, they're just boys. That its normal for this kind of thing to happen." Karoline fumed.
"Yeah, and at the dance tonight, you know they are going to be using those x-ray contacts again." Libby glared at the couch.
"So...lets get back at them..." I suggested.
"We'll get in trouble.""Not with what I have in mind...Let me see your dresses." I slipped out my wand as we went upstairs.
Karoline was the first to present me with her dress.
"Is there any message you'd like to give whoever tries to look through your dress?"
"What?"
I flicked my wand over the dress saying the spell mentally. "I asked if you want a message put on it."
"Um...I don't think so jerk." She said slowly.
"K...done."
"What???"
"Who's next."
I went through that process with every girl in our dorm.
When I got to my dress I smiled. "WHOEVER CAN SEE THIS IS A PEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRVVVVVVVEEEEEEEERRRRRRTTTT.!!!" I drew that in the fabric.
I slipped it on and tossed a note into the shoebox. "Love you and miss you." it said. With a final swipe of my brush through my now seriously long hair, I scurried out of the room.
The dance was alot like the ball we had had for the Tri-Wizard Tournament.
Libby and I kept together on the dance floor along with the other girls who didn't want a date. We let some boys dance with us during the slow songs, but at a distance. It was entertaining watching them realize they couldn't' see through our dresses, but it was disturbing to also see the look a anger pass over some male teachers faces, including the principle.
The last song came on. It was a soft song. *Great, I get to dance with another perv.* I thought to myself. I rolled my eyes and accepted the first guy that came up to me. Right as I stepped forward to put my arms around his shoulders, arms grabbed me from behind. They snaked around my waist and pulled me backwards into a strong chest. I spun to face the person that grabbed me. I grinned up and him then hid the smile.
"What do you think you're doing here?" I asked him snaking my arms around his neck.
Fred sighed and leaned down to whisper in my ear."You didn't send me a picture, I had to come see what you looked like in your dress. Plus, the last dance we both attended, I didn't get to dance with you."
I giggled. "True, but you did take the time to glare at me that entire dance."
His arms tightened around me and he growled bitterly.
I leaned my head on his shoulder.
"Nice job with the anti-x-ray dresses. The writing is a nice touch."
I pulled away so I could glare up into his face.
"Hun, when I saw the look on all the guys faces as they stared at all the girls I got curious." He winked and tapped my nose.
"Fine..." I muttered and leaned against him again.
"I about started a riot when I realized just how many guys were trying to see through your dress...And I almost murdered every guy that danced with you...Then I saw the silent conversations you girls were having during the slow dances and I started laughing."
"Just how long have you been here?"
"The whole time." He laughed."And you're only coming out now!!!!" I tried to pull away again, but this time his arms wouldn't let me.
"I was entertained watching you."
"Yeah yeah" I continued to glare into his shoulder.
He leaned down and kissed the top of my head. "Am I forgiven."
I sighed. "Yes." I muttered.
"Good. Though...I do believe I am receiving some glares.""Like I care. Just dumb boys that barely know magic and think panty raids and simple graffiti are pranks." I muttered.
"Man...you must have really been missing Hogwarts." He laughed.
"Yeah...and you." I snuggled my head against him. And he laughed.
The song ended and we separated so that he was only holding onto my hand and we slipped outside, closely followed by Libby."OMG this must be the famous Fred." She gushed once we were out of earshot of the rest of the students.
"Libby!" I glared at her blushing. Fred grinned triumphantly down at me.
"That would be me. And you must be Libby, the one taking care of my girl while she's here."
"Your girl?" A group of boys walked toward where we stood in the courtyard.
"I don't think so." another boy said.
"Who do you think you are just coming waltzing in here and stealing one of OUR girls." another said.
"HE is my boyfriend, and I don't ever recall being YOUR girl." I shot back.
"I see what you mean..." Fred whispered. He kissed me full on the lips then pulled back grinning at me. "I gotta go though before George gets furious. Bye love." He winked and disapparated with a pop.
