I do not own anything from the harry potter universe, unfortunately.

"Normal Talking"

'Thoughts'

"Parseltongue"

"So... this is a dilemma." Hermione stated looking at Susan and Daphne. The three girls as well as the rest of the school had just received word of the upcoming Yule Ball that would be taking place soon. Usually, it wouldn't have been much of a problem but seeing as Harry was in a relationship with all three of them it was a bit of a troublesome situation. All the girls were more than willing to attend the Ball with Harry but he had been hesitant not wanting to show any form of favoritism over the others. As a result, he had been avoiding them for fear of upsetting any of them.

"It's sweet how he can be so concerned with our feelings but he should know it doesn't matter who he takes this time. He can just take the other two on dates later." Susan said with Daphne nodding but Hermione merely swayed her head side to side in a show of agreeance but also disagreeing at the same time.

"Yeah it is, but that's the problem, isn't it. Harry doesn't like hurting people if they don't deserve it or he doesn't need to. Especially if he cares about them. Maybe we should've put off asking him out until after the Ball." Hermione suggested.

"Well too late to put that charm back into the wand. Though we should've expected this, it was going to come up at some point. Personally, I'm glad it's coming up early if he started having these thoughts months down the road it would be more problematic." Daphne said legs dangling from the desk she sat on top of.

"I guess that's true, we can work out all the kinks in the early stages so that it can be much smoother down the road." Hermione agreed.

"I wish he could just take all of us." Susan stated and Daphne smirked at her.

"I'm sure he would if he could, though McGonagall was clear he needed a singular date."

"I just don't understand why." Susan huffed.

"Maybe she's a prude."

"Professor McGonagall is not a prude. I am sure she has a good reason for this restriction." Hermione defended her favorite teacher.

"It's not like it's a huge problem, he's just going to have the opening dance and dinner with one of us. That doesn't mean he can't still dance the other two of us. We're not going to be separated or anything." Daphne said.

"Yeah we get that but Harry isn't the best when it comes to... romantic relationships," Hermione stated.

"I think he's doing pretty well so far with us." Susan said looking at the Gryffindor girl.

"Yeah but we've only been dating for a few days now and let us be honest we've taken the lead a lot of the time haven't we." Hermione pointed out as Daphne nodded.

"True, we've got to be careful with that too. This has to be an equal relationship not just us with him but him with us too." The other girls nodded at Daphne's words remembering what she told them that Jones had told Harry.

"So should we just wait? Let him sort this out on his own?" Susan asked looking between the girls.

"That's the thing, I don't know. I want to find him and let him know that it is okay but I know Harry will likely feel obligated to go with none of us just avoid hurting our feelings." Hermione said rubbing her eyes.

"So what he just doesn't go at all?" Daphne said not liking that outcome at all.

"Ugh... this is so difficult. It's like he's scared or something." Susan said.

"He is, look as far as meaningful relationships Harry has barely a handful. He had Ron but that was just parasitic and unhealthy. He has me obviously but we've only ever been friends. Then his Godfather is a wanted criminal who can't even give him advice because of the ministry. That is it, everyone else has been acquaintances and he's only just started to get to know the people in Slytherin besides Malfoy and only recently started dating you two as well." Hermione explained and Susan and Daphne shared a look.

"That's... true. I don't like it but it's true. We might be dating but he still has to build the relationship with us two first." Daphne said gesturing between herself and Susan.

"Do you think we went too fast? Maybe we should've just been friends for a little while first." Susan said tucking a lock of strawberry blonde hair behind her ear.

"Susan, if I'm being honest, then yes I think we might've gone a bit too quickly." Daphne admitted as Susan deflated, she was the one who had been very pushy about asking him out as soon as Hermione agreed. Daphne had gone with it of course but she knew she was showing the most excitement.

"Shocking coming from you." Hermione couldn't help but joke as Daphne chuckled.

"I'll admit that I am very flirtatious with him. But still..."

"So what? We break it off and try to develop before trying again?" Susan asked and Hermione quickly shook her head.

"Absolutely not!" Hermione exclaimed quickly catching both girls by surprise.

"Well I don't like the idea either but... why not?" Daphne asked.

"As I said, Harry has only a handful of relationships, real relationships. If we all suddenly break things off it's going to send the wrong message to him even if we try to explain. Maybe we jumped the gun so to speak."

"Jumped the gun?" Susan interrupted but Hermione brushed her off.

"Muggle expression. The point is, we dived headfirst into this a bit hastily, but it's too important to us, not to mention Harry, for us to just call it off at the first bump. It will go far better if we stick to it and talk to him and let him work things out with us. It will let you two form a better bond with him and show him that he can trust you. He took a risk himself accepting our mad Hufflepuff plan. Show him that that leap of faith wasn't a mistake." Hermione explained looking at Susan and Daphne who shared a look as well.

"Damn Hermione, maybe you should be a love doctor or something." Daphne joked causing the girls to laugh lightly.

"Okay, so just show him that we care and he can trust us no matter what." Susan summarized.

"Yes." Hermione answered.

Meanwhile, Harry was in his usual classroom, he had trained a bit but after his legs got wobbly on him he called it quits and instead decided to torture himself with the Golden Egg. As usual, it was fruitless even using his new casting technique had little effect on silencing charms and the like.

Though honestly his mind and heart wasn't in it. He kept thinking back to the girls and the Ball that was coming around. At first, when he heard about it he wasn't really worried. He figured that it would be something like their first date with each girl taking turns. However, McGonangal had made it abundantly that he could only have one official date.

She had explained that he would be dining with that one date and having the opening dance with said date. Harry had become very worried about that. Despite the assurances he had received immediately after from the girls couldn't silence the thoughts bouncing around in his head. Harry was as far from experienced in the romantic sense as you could get. It showed during his first date when he just let the girls run the show.

Now he was going to have to make a choice between the three of them for a public outing. He could already hear the whispers about how he picked a favorite. In his head, he couldn't get the voices of the damned Dursleys out of his head either. Demona had been helpful with that but it seemed that his subconscious was especially nasty with this problem.

He could hear Dudley and Vernon screaming at him, talking about how a freak like him would never find love. Or that they only wanted to be with him out of pity. The worst had to be the lines from Petunia... hearing her voice in his head about how he would just end up getting them killed. Like how he got his mother killed.

Harry knew that they were just twisted subconscious demons born from years of abuse. But even still, it became difficult to remember that point at times. And now they were screaming that he was selfish and a waste of space. That he was taking advantage of the girls in his life. Petunia had even gone so far as to claim that whoever he chooses will just die that much quicker.

Harry at this point had covered his face and began taking deep breaths. He really wished he was confident enough to just ask one of them to the dance. In his head, he knew that it would be fine. That no matter who he went with the other two wouldn't be hurt or feel lesser for it. But he couldn't help the pit that formed in his stomach whenever he started to consider who to pick.

It was here he was brought out of his thoughts when Demona had begun to nudge him with her wet and warm nose. She had flooded him with warmth through their bond as he reached up to rub her jaw. The Hellhound lifted her chin slightly to allow him better access.

"I don't suppose you got any idea's on how to do this?" Harry asked but Demona was too entranced by his pets to answer, not that she would anyway seeing that she couldn't really speak. Instead, he just sat there petting his enormous Hellhound like she was nothing more than a common house dog. She had placed her head in his lap and it was large enough that he could lean over and embrace it. Slowly the voices became quiet once again as all he felt was the warmth emanating between them.

"Thanks, girl, that helped a lot," Harry said, he could still use some verbal advice but this had helped him calm down tremendously. Standing up Demona melted back into his shadow as he gathered his things. Making sure to curse the Egg as he put it back in its bag. As he left the classroom he walked at a leisurely pace not feeling the need to rush. Instead, he used the opportunity to think of people he could go to for advice.

He thought about his teachers and McGonagal seemed like the most likely choice. He briefly even entertained the idea of going to Snape but quickly dismissed that. They were more civil that's for sure but he wasn't going to go asking about relationship advice from Snape of all people. He then thought of any other older figures that he could ask, the only real older students he truly knew were the ones on the Gryffindor Quidditch team or Jones.

Harry's Quidditch team was something he hadn't considered in a while. Despite Ron and his harassment during the early stages of this tournament, those on the team hadn't truly been a part of that. He had just been avoiding them as he had with Hermione by accident. He made a mental side note to get back in touch with his team.

But back with to the matter of advice, Jones seemed to be the best choice. She had been very helpful after his first date. And despite her mad tendencies, she was quite helpful when it came to advice. He was going to have to get her something for Christmas with how much she was helping him out. Nodding to himself he began to make his way to the Slytherin Common room to see if he could find her. At least that was his initial plan. Though that came to a screeching halt when a blonde raven claw suddenly stood in his way with a whimsy smile on her face.

"It's all going to work out." She said to him her smile never leaving her face.

"I'm sorry?" Harry asked.

"The Ball and your dates, they'll work out you'll see." She stated and now Harry was very confused.

"Wait, how did you know about that?"

"I don't know." She said and then looked down and her smile widened as she suddenly bent down to look at his shadow.

"And aren't you just a pretty thing. My name's Luna what's yours?" The now named Luna asked his shadow. To anyone else, it would look extremely odd to be talking to someone's shadow, but Harry did in fact have something in his shadow. Though only his friends understood that, most just assumed it was a spell of some sort.

"Wait hold on."

"What is wrong Harry?" Luna asked her head tilted to the side rather cutely.

"Let's just back up a few steps. What do you mean it'll work out?" Harry asked.

"Oh, I mean your dates of course."

"Okay, so you know about the Ball and my... girlfriends. But I can only go with one." Harry said, it still felt weird to say girlfriends but in a good way.

"I know that. But that doesn't mean you can't go with all of them."

"You just said you knew I can only go with one."

"Why do you only have to go with one?"

"Because McGonagal said I can only take one girl as a date."

"Does that mean the others aren't going to go?"

"Well... no."

"Are you not going to want to dance with them?"

"No, of course not."

"Then what's the problem?"

"I can only go with one."

"But Harry you just said that they'll be there and you'll dance with them."

"I did... ugh it's not about that it's about... you know..."

"You're worried about the other girls feeling like they aren't as important."

"Yeah... wait, what's going on?"

"We are having a conversation."

"I get that! Okay, how are you understanding all this? I've never met you before." Harry exclaimed his head spinning, it wasn't every day a total stranger came up to you and knew all your woes and issues.

"I suppose that's true. Well, I am Luna Lovegood, a third-year, and you are Harry Potter. There now we aren't strangers." She said with a wide smile.

"Um... nice to meet you?" He asked.

"Yes, it is nice to meet you too. So have you decided to take Hermione to the Ball? Or perhaps Susan, Susan's nice. Also, Daphne seems kind of cold to me but I know she's a marshmallow to you and the other girls."

"No, I haven't. That's kind of my problem." Harry said but the girl just shrugged.

"I don't think it would be a problem, Hermione is smart and brave, Susan is kind and considerate, Daphne is strong and understanding. How could be being in a relationship with those three be a problem."

"No, that's not what I meant. I'm talking about the Ball."

"Oh, I love Balls! You get to dress up like a princess and dance with a handsome prince. Though I wish the Nargles didn't steal my nice shoes, it'd be hard to look like a princess without pretty shoes. Though I don't mind being barefoot, even if my toes get a bit cold at times." Luna said drawing attention to her feet which were bare against the stone.

"Someone stole your shoes?"

"Yup! The Nargles, there very nasty sometimes and often steal my things but it's all in good fun." Luna said and Harry thought he saw something flash in her eyes as she explained. He felt like he was familiar with whatever it was but couldn't place it.

"That's... not nice. What were we talking about again?"

"Your dates, I said that it was all going to work out!"

"Right... what makes you say that?"

"No idea! But I think you need something more than that. I know Megan has a free period right now and should be in the common room. The Slytherin one that is. That is who you wanted to talk to right?"

"Yeah... Wait how did you know that?"

"No idea! Bye-bye Harry, bye pretty wolf." Luna said waving to Harry and then to his shadow where Demona was. Before Harry could say anything else Luna had skipped off her blonde curly hair bouncing along with her Ravenclaw robes.

"What just happened?" Harry asked but no one was around to answer. "Okay..." Harry shook his head and continued walking making his way to the Slytherin Common room. Though the words of Luna kept bouncing in his mind. As odd as it was she made some sense even if how she explained it whipped him back and forth with every word. With her advice in mind, he continued to the common room entering the cooly lit room and finding it largely empty save for a few of the older Slytherin students who had free periods.

Among those students was Jones who was in the process of writing some things down in a journal with a rather large textbook next to her. Walking up behind her he peeked over her shoulder and what she was writing nearly made his head spin. He was fairly sure that they were runes at but they were written in every direction sometimes overlapping or curving. With the runes, it was like she was making some form of a diagram. In a way, it reminded him of some of the diagrams that he found in his Grimoire but even more complicated.

"You know if you're going to try to sneak a peek make sure your shadow isn't where I can see it." Harry jumped as Jones spoke and turned to look at him a smirk on her face.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to." He apologized and Jones just shrugged.

"Sit, you need something, you got that look on your face." Jones said and Harry playfully scowled.

"What look?"

"That 'oh I'm overthinking something so I better go find the most beautiful and talented witch in all the world to help me' look." She said casually haughtily flipping her hair. Harry sat across from her but rolled his eyes when he did.

"Don't forget to add incredibly humble to that list." He joked but she nodded.

"Indeed, whilst I may be a goddess in human form I do come off as incredibly humble." Harry just scoffed while Jones giggled. "So what does the great Dark Lord Harry Potter need from me?" She asked and Harry groaned at her favorite teasing moniker for him.

"Are you ever going to not call me that?"

"Maybe once you get a better title, the boy-who-lived just doesn't have that great of a ring to it." Harry would have argued but he had more pressing matters on his mind.

"It's the about the Ball that's coming up. I'm just worried about it."

"Harry... I'm flattered but what would your girlfriends think." That got Harry to blush.

"What!? No that's... How did you even come to that conclusion!?" Harry exclaimed and Jones just cackled away.

"I'm just messing with you. So you're worried about the Ball? Wait no, you're worried about the girls aren't you?" Jones guessed and Harry nodded.

"So what's the problem? Do you not want to go?"

"No, it's not that it's... well Professor McGonagall said that I can only take one date." Harry said and they sat there for a moment before Jones leaned forward.

"Is that it?" She asked and Harry nodded. At this Jones sighed and shook her head.

"Harry, just because you can only take one date doesn't mean you will have to ignore the other two."

"No, I understand that it's just..."

"Just what?"

"I don't want to make the other two feel, I don't know lesser?" Jones was quiet for a moment before slowly nodding.

"I get that, a little. But Harry If you chose to take Hermione as your official date do you think that Susan or Daphne would suddenly crumble? They wouldn't, they're big girls and unless you ignore them the entire night they're not going to feel any lesser at all." Jones explained and Harry while understanding the words still couldn't help the feeling of worry in his gut.

Jones picked up on this and sighed before looking down at the diagram she was working on. Picking up her quill she put some final touches before spinning the journal to face Harry.

"Harry look at this what do you see?" Harry raised an eyebrow but obliged anyway.

"Um... runes I think."

"What kind of runes, why are they set up like this? Can you make sense of it?" Jones asked and Harry took another look, and while it looked vaguely familiar to him he still couldn't make heads or tails of it.

"No."

"That's okay, this matrix is just like your relationship. At first, it's confusing, you don't understand what to do and you might even be frightened about messing up." Jones explained pulling out her wand then beginning to tap it on the runes causing them to light up.

"It's okay to not understand, to be unsure but don't freeze up because then you'll never figure it out. You are going to make mistakes, just like they will make mistakes. Your first date proves that but you didn't give up, instead, you talked about it and will do better the next time. This is no different than that." As she talked jones continued activating the runes until the final run began to glow and they began to float off the page forming a sphere of light.

"But once you figure it out you are going to find that the results will be beautiful." After this, the sphere suddenly morphed into a Butterfly of shining golden light that fluttered around the room with golden dust falling from its wings as it did. Once it came back it appeared to melt back into the page separating into separate runes once again and losing its glow.

"So, in short, relax don't get too worked up over it, and have some faith in the girls as well." Harry smiled a little and nodded.

"Okay, I get it."

"Good, you know I'm going to have to start charging you for these little talks." Jones joked and Harry rolled his eyes.

"You wouldn't."

"I don't know, I have a reputation to uphold and you keep forcing me to get all serious and stuff."

"I'm not forcing you." Harry defended.

"I feel forced." Jones quickly replied.

"Oh, whatever." Harry sighed as he stood "Seriously though, thanks."

"Yeah Yeah, get out of here, I'll send you the bill." Harry laughed a little at that but let her get back to her work. Jones shook her head a bit as Harry left making his way to his room. Returning to her work she began to begin a new rune matrix when one of the other Slytherins in the room playfully sneered.

"Getting soft Jones?" The male student joked as Jones's familiar mad glint returned to her eyes.

"Wanna test that theory?" She challenged a wicked smirk on her face as the student quickly backed down returning to his studies. She huffed flipping her hair as she did going back to her runes.

Meanwhile, Harry inside his room was thinking. The talk with Jones was very helpful and soothed most of his worries. Luna was as well, in an odd sort of way he'd make sure to thank her properly the next time he saw her. But right now he had to decide who to take to Ball.

Hermione was the one who came to mind first, he had known her the longest and also knew her the best out of all three of them. Though he did have to give them all careful consideration. Susan was very beautiful and kind she was would be an ideal date. Then there was Daphne she was definitely more flirtatious than Hermione or Susan but she had a soft side as well even Harry could tell that much.

Any one of the girls would be wonderful to take but he had to officially take only one. He still couldn't help but feel a bit of a pit in his stomach despite what Jones and Luna said. But it would be scary at first even still he had to pull on his bit of Gryffindor bravery in this case. Also even if he was officially taking one he wasn't going to ignore the other two. Absolutely not.

Looking down to his shadow a pair of smoldering eyes stared back at him.

"Oh, do you want to say your two cents as well?" Harry asked playfully and he felt a rush of hot air as Demona snorted in his face. Laughing he felt the slow embracing warmth that accompanied Demona's bond.

"Do you have any suggestions about who I should take?" He asked and suddenly Susan flashed in his mind. He laughed again.

"Good choice but are you sure you're not just choosing her because she snuck you that whole ham?" He asked and his answer was just another puff of air.

Before he could continue though there was a knock at the door. Getting up the person that greeted him as he opened it was Blaise.

"Hey, you got a minute?" the dark skin teen asked.

"Uh, sure." Harry answered stepping aside.

"Thanks." Blaise said stepping in and setting himself down on the opposite bed.

"So what do you need?"

"Well... I need some help with the Ball." Blaise said a sheepish smile on his face as he said this. Harry's eyebrows raised before he chuckled.

"I am probably the last person that can you help you out there. I'm kinda having troubles of my own."

"Oh? Like what, you got three dates for the Ball how could you be having any trouble?"

"That's kinda my problem, you see McGonagall says I can only take one of them."

"What? Why?"

"Your guess is as good as mine." Harry shrugged.

"Well, it's not like your going to hurt the other girl's feelings they'll understand."

"Yeah, I know."

"Oh... good."

"So what's your problem." Harry asked getting back to the original reason Blaise was here.

"The opposite of yours, I got no one to ask." That made Harry frown, Harry was socially stunted not blind.

"No way, I've seen how some of the girls look at you, you could probably ask anyone to the Ball and they say yes."

"Wow, how observant you are, except when it comes to yourself." Blaise teased lightly.

"Hey!... I have no argument for that." Harry admitted a bit bashfully.

"Yeah, besides I don't want to go with just any girl you know."

"I get that, did you try to ask anyone at least?"

"I was going to ask Tracey..." Harry's eyes widened a bit at this.

"As a friend, but she apparently already has a date. So now everyone has a real date but me and that just won't due." He said shaking his head and Harry was sort of following his reasoning.

"Okay... I'm going to be honest I've got nothing." Harry said raising his hands in a shrugging motion.

"C'mon you've got have some suggestions."

"I've only recently begun to expand my number of friends and the only girls that I really know are Hermione, Susan, Daphne, Jones, and Tracey."

"Well I can't ask Jones, she'd turn me into shoes to wear at the Ball."

"She would not."

"You don't know Potter, you don't know." Blaise said with a shiver. What had Jones done to earn that sort of reputation anyway? Harry sighed but then an image of a certain blonde Ravenclaw flashed through his mind. Quickly glancing down he saw Demona's eyes before they vanished.

"Luna Lovegood?" Harry asked out loud even though he didn't mean to.

"Luna Lovegood?" Blaise asked getting Harry's attention.

"Uh... yeah she's a Ravenclaw I met recently. Do you know her?"

"I think I might've heard the name in passing a couple of times." Blaise said thinking.

"She's a year under us, maybe that's why."

"Oh, that makes sense. You just met her?"

"Yeah, she's... interesting."

"Interesting in the good way or bad way?"

"Depend I guess. She's nice."

"Okay, I'll ask for her then see what she's like. Any other suggestions?"

"It's a miracle that I have one." Harry joked as Blaise chuckled.

After that Harry and Blaise just talked about various things, like their classes and spells they were studying. Harry couldn't talk about the spells he was working on but he could talk about how well he was doing. Overall he felt he was making good progress. Having a true teacher would help a lot but based on where he started he was progressing at a fine pace from what he could tell.

He didn't feel so wiped out after his usual training sessions. In fact, he felt like he might be able to try out the Protego Diabolica spell soon. Perhaps after the Ball. If only the riddle of his Egg would go as smoothly but unfortunately no such luck. Why they even said it was riddle was pure hogwash. There was no riddle to the Egg just odd carvings that so far seemed to be purely decorative and unbearable screeching.

"Okay, I'm gonna go now." Harry said getting up finishing up his conversation with Blaise.

"Good luck mate." Harry smiled and nodded and the two teens left the room and left. They must've been talking for longer than Harry thought because many of the Slytherin students seemed to have come back from their classes.

"Potter, still polluting the air with your stink then?" came a snide voice that Harry just rolled his eyes at. He had gotten quite good at ignoring Malfoy.

"Maybe you should take a shower, cause that's not me." Harry quipped.

"How long are you going to hide here? For someone that's the golden boy of Gryffindor doesn't seem very brave hiding out here just because you were bullied a bit now does it." Malfoy attempted to insult Harry.

"Remind me again who's in the top of our year and who hasn't even made the top ten?" Harry returned and Malfoy growled remembering the incident with Hermione.

"Draco doesn't need to be in the top ten he has nothing to prove!" Pansy replied coming to Malfoy's defense though it was a rather weak one.

"Shut up Parkinson!" Malfoy growled out causing Pansy to flinch slightly.

"Whatever I've got things to do." Harry said and left before Malfoy could make another dig at him. Making his way through the corridors he passed a couple of students heading out of classes for the day.

As he walked he made it a point to be a little more observant of the groups that he passed up. Before he would've sworn that everyone in the school mainly stuck to their own. And while that was true in some cases he found that it wasn't nearly as widespread as he thought previously. Turns out when you open your eyes a bit and do a bit of observation outside of what you know you notice some things. For example, it would seem that many Hufflepuff students intermingled with many of the other houses. In fact he saw quite a few that grouped up with some Slytherins. It was a unique pair, at least to him, the kind and compassionate Puffs being friends with the usually calculating Slytherins.

It was rather nice seeing just how intermingled the school was beside Malfoy and Ron the school was a lot like what he imagined a big school like this would be like when he was young. Leaving his idle musings behind he made his way towards the bathroom that the girls usually hung out in as of late. As he approached he heard familiar voices and made sure no one saw him when he entered.

"Hello?" He called out already knowing who would answer.

"Hey Harry, decided to finally stop avoiding us?" He heard the familiar voice of Daphne as he walked in to see the girl in question sitting up on one of the sinks giving him that playful smirk she always likes to use. Next to her Hermione and Susan sat on the floor looking over a book but both turned to greet him with a smile.

"Yeah, sorry..." he apologized looking back he was being a bit rude to the girls.

"Oh sorry he says, I don't know is that okay for you Susan?" Daphne asked in a playful appalled voice and Susan placed her hand upon her chest faining a heartbreak.

"I don't know, it still hurts." She teased and Hermione rolled her eyes.

"Oh shush you two."

"Oh fine." Daphne sighed they all shared a little laugh at that as Harry smiled.

"I am sorry about avoiding you... I was just."

"It's fine Harry, just don't make it a habit okay?" Daphne said.

"Right, I'll do that. Um, so there's something we need to talk about." Harry said taking a seat next to Hermione and Susan on the floor with Daphne looking down on them.

"It's about the Ball. So I know McGonagall said that I'm only allowed to officially take one of you to the Ball as my date. But I just want you to know that even though I may ask one of you doesn't mean I don't think that the other two are... um lesser? No, wait, um less important? There's a better way to say this." The girls all giggled at Harry's flustered explanation and Hermione and Susan each placed a comforting hand on each of his knees.

"It's fine Harry we understand. We know if you could we would all be your dates." Susan said giving him a reassuring squeeze.

"Thanks, So..." He gulped he hadn't really reached a decision yet concerning the girls and who he should take officially. Though he knew that no matter who he decided to take he would make sure that all three of them had a great time. No matter what.

_SCENE_

Okay I am alive, and I am so sorry for the very late upload, I've been having a sever case of writers block and with school starting back up it's just been a bit of an adjustment along with a new job. However I am getting back into it and this chapter kinda shows my writers block as it's my shortest one and I am no all that happy with it. Though you will notice that I left a cliff hanger concerning the official date for Harry potter. So I am going to be putting up a poll so ya'll can vote on it and we'll let our community decide who is the official date. So again sorry for the late upload and I will try to get back on top of it. Until next time this has been your Average, Ordinary, Everyday Fallen Angel. (UPDATE) The Poll is up and can be found on my profile page make your Votes NOW!
