It was the day of the ball. Everybody was excited, even y/n. She had perked up since Fred came to comfort her last night. They all got ready and made their way to the hall for breakfast. It became normal for y/n to walk past Draco. She could feel his eyes burning into her as she walked past. 

Every time.

"Ignore him, ignore him and ignore him" Hermione whispered as they sit down.

"Who's everybody going with tonight then?" Y/n asked the table.

"Cho. I finally plucked up the courage to ask her" Harry replied with a big grin.

"Nobody" Ron sulked.

"It's a surprise" Hermione announced. Everybody looked at her confused. They were all chatting away when they heard Pansy's annoying voice.

"Well you better tell her you're not going with y/n!" She shouted, and everybody turned. Draco shot his head over to y/n and saw she heard. He stormed out of the hall , ignoring Pansy running after him like a dog. 

"The bloody hell was all that about?" Ron asked but y/n shrugged.

After a few lessons, they all sat out in the court yard discussing tonight. Nerves were slowly starting to kick in. All she wanted to do was show Draco how happy she was. Fred's much better, right?

"Y/N are you ready?" Hermione shouted from her dressing table. Y/n walked out looking beautiful with her dress on, makeup done and hair done to perfection.

"You actually look like a princess" Hermione clasped her hands together and beamed.

"Says you! This chosen boy of yours is very lucky" She replied nudging her arm.

With that, Fred walked in and his jaw dropped. He couldn't take his eyes off her. Hermione coughed, and he cleared his throat. 

"Meh, you look alright, not too embarrassing" He says sarcastically.

"I got you this to match my robe." He pulled out a black rose corsage from his pocket and fastened it on her wrist.

"Thankyou Fred it's lovely." As she gave him a hug, Ron and Harry walked in.

"Jesus you two get a room will you?" Ron laughed sitting down, George now following in.

"Oh that's it everybody pile in!" Hermione shouted, wondering why there's now four boys in her dor+m.

"Right then let's get this party started!" George cheered, grabbing four shot glasses and pouring firewhiskey in each, handing them to everyone but Hermione, who refuses. They clinked and downed it in one. Harry spluttered in the corner trying to swallow the burning liquid. 

"Come on then losers!" George shouted and they all cheered again.

"Madam?" Fred held his arm out for y/n to hold onto as she walked in her heels.

"Wait y/n! This came for you." Hermione handed her a letter, and everybody waited for her. She opened it to see her mothers writing.

Her mother obviously assumed Draco was gonna take her like she did. She grunted and threw it on the bed and told them not to worry. They all head up to the Great Hall (without Hermione).

They burst open the doors and made quite a noise. The Hall fell silent and Mcgonagall stormed over.

"Shhh! The first dance has started. Harry you should be up there! It's tradition the Triwizard champions have the first dance" Mcgonagall exclaimed, shooing him to the floor. She took one look at Ron's not so appealing dress robe.

"Oh Ron you look... just proceed into the hall with, well yourself" Ron just grunted and walked in behind y/n and Fred.

The Hall looked completely different. It was all silver and white. The candles were now snowflakes and the benches weren't there. The floor was sparkly, and dusted with fake snow. They watched Harry as he nervously shuffled on the dance floor with Cho, we wouldn't really call it dancing. Hermione approached the floor holding Victor Krum's hand, a Triwizard champion. Y/n's face lit up, whilst Ron's looked green with jealousy.

After the slow dance, everybody rushed to the floor. Fred and y/n jumped up and down singing along laughing. Everybody looked like their having a great time. Everybody along with their partners danced in a big circle, twirling each other and forgetting anyone else was there. A slow song came back on and they all took their partners hands. Y/n saw Ron look down, so she grabbed his arm and dragged him to Hermione.

"Hermione? Ron would like to ask you to dance with him" She said sternly, forcing Ron to take her hand. They both started dancing. Krum looked, and started to dance with a sixth year, typical men. Y/n walked back over to Fred and they danced.

She had her head on his chest and his arms were comfortably around her waist. She enjoyed it, but not for long. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Draco with Pansy behind Harry and Cho.

"They look happy" She mumbled. 

"They look like they're both missing a foot. I mean who would call that dancing?" Fred whispered to make her laugh. Draco caught her staring, so she quickly looked away and up to Fred.

"He's looking you know."

"I know I know" Fred replied in a tone as if to say 'don't worry'.

"That's why I need you to kiss me" Y/n whispered.

"Wait, what?"

"Just do it will you!"

So he leans in and kissed her. She didn't enjoy it at all, it was only for Draco to see. They kissed for a while whilst she heard Ron whispering in disgust to Hermione, she doubted he enjoyed seeing his brother kiss a girl. Fred started biting her lip and forcing himself on her a little more, so she ripped away from him.

It's probably because he's drunk.

"Not bad for a loser" Fred grinned turning red, but before she could say anything, she heared the doors slam.

Her head panned over to where Draco was, but he wasn't there. Pansy was stood in shock by herself.

Did that kiss just make him storm out?
