Things between me and Severus had become awkward.

Dumbledore had announced that the Yule ball was coming up.

On the hogsmeade trip I went into a very beautiful dress shop and got a beautiful dress with matching shoes.
It was a frosty white the clung to my curves accentuating them but not focusing on them.
It had a v neck and back. When I tried it on it looked elegant and mature. The shoes were glass.

I had gotten many offers from boys from both Hogwarts and Durmstrang but I turned them all down.
I had other plans.


On the night of the dance I made my make up light. My hair was in ringlets that framed my face.
I slipped on my dress and shoes and walked down stairs.


I walked inside the great hall and sat down at a table.
I heard someone come up behind me.

"Would you care to dance Miss?" I heard his deep baritone voice.

"Certainly" I said turning around.

"Sonny?" Severus asked confused.

"That`s my name" I said smirking. "Are you taking back your offer?"

"No I just thought you were a teacher"

"Really?"

"Yes now are you going to dance with me or not?"

"Yes" I took his hand and we began twirling across the floor.


I heard the clock strike twelve.

"Crap" I said. He raised an eyebrow.

"Must you leave, Cinderella?" He asked smirking.

"Yes. It`s curfew and I have to patrol the halls"

"I will escort you out then" I took his arm and he walked me out.


As I was walking I bumped into Dumbledore. Literally.

"Sorry Headmaster" I said.

"Quite alright I see you were having fun tonight"

"Yes it was enjoyable"

"Severus took you for almost all the songs"
I mentally smacked myself that old man would probably do something. Good or bad.

"Well I`ll leave you to your thoughts" He said with that devious twinkle in his eyes. I sighed this year couldn`t end quicker.
