———

Louis sits at the base of a tree as he does his work, occasionally taking glances at the group of hufflepuff girls down by the lake. He pulls his robes around him as a breeze of cold winter air blows by.

The corner of his lips turn up as a certain girl with y/e/c eyes laughs, her hair getting ruffled by the wind.

He admires her, how she laughs, how she fiddles with the ends of her sleeve when she talks, how she blows in her hands when they get too cold.

His thoughts are cut short by the Weasley twins sitting on either side of him. "Look at him George."

"Like a lovesick puppy he is."

"Why don't you ask her to the ball mate?"

"Yeah ask her ball."

Louis sighs and shakes his head. "She's too perfect for me."

George chuckles and glances over at her again. "Well you better act quick Louis. I might swipe her out from under you."

Fred leans over and smacks his twin. "You will do no such thing. Let our poor little Louis have his shot." he teases.

George reaches over Louis and hits Fred back and soon they are hitting each other across Louis, who is sitting their with a bored expression at their antics. He suddenly seats their hands away. "I will ask her. Give me two weeks." He says.

"Lou, the ball is in three." Fred reminds him.

"Yeah, that's not a lot of time. Especially since you like to put things off until the last minute." George follows.

Louis huffs and crosses his arms. "Well, we have that stupid dance practice tomorrow, so I reckon I can do it then. Hopefully." He says, gathering his things. "And we're still on for raiding the potions cabinet tonight, right?" He says as he starts to walk away.

"Of course!"

"We're fresh out of ingredients!"

Louis sits in the back with the rest of the guys as Professor Sprout explains the basics of the waltz. He looks over to Cedric as she explain how the Champions will go first and he nods along. "Mr. Diggory," She says, "As our very own champion, would you like to demonstrate for us?"

Some of the boys cheer for him as he goes up and Louis sees Y/n laugh with her friends. Louis knew she was also friends with Cedric, and suddenly, he got nervous Cedric would ask her first.

"And we need a lady, ah, Miss Y/l/n." Sprout says.

Y/n gets up with a smile on her face and her friends giggle as she roles her eyes.

"Mr. Diggory, put your hand on her waist and Y/n put your— ah yes like that." She says as the students watch, Louis' face contorting with jealousy.

He wanted to be the one dancing with her.

"You two seem like you know what you're doing!" Sprout chirps, patting them both on the shoulders. "Let me get the music." she walks over to the music player and Y/n and Cedric smirk to each other.

Louis sees Cedric tell her something, but he can't hear it due to the music.

As soon as it starts, the two are waltzing around the room and Sprout claps for the two as they walk in sync. "Watch them closely, look how they step! Now, all of you stand and find a partner!" She says and the girls stand, the boys reluctantly getting up as well.

Louis sees Y/n and Cedric separate and he makes a beeline for her, and clears his throat. "Y/n?" He asks nervously.

"Yeah?" She asks, her friends pushing her forward to which she sends them a glare.

"Do you—Do you maybe want to dance with me?" He asks.

Her smile grows and she nods. "Sure." She answers and takes his hand and leads them to the dance floor.

"I don't really know how to dance." He admits, a blush growing on his cheeks.

She smirks and takes his hand, guiding to her waist, and his other in her own as her opposite hand goes to his shoulder. "Just follow my lead. We'll take it slow."

She does as promised, and leads him through the movements of the dance as they move to the music.

"Y/n?" Louis says and her head snaps up looking into his eyes. "It's just— um— You're a really great dancer and a really great partner and um— I was hoping you'd like to be my dance partner during the ball?"

Her eyes light up and she nods, Louis' breath taken away by her excited—ness. "I'd love to."
