Yule Ball

Lexi's dress is in the media.

I waited for Luna by the staircase that everyone was walking by. She took forever but she looked nice and she showed up so I didn't really care. "Hey Luna do you want to go now?" I asked. "Sure let's go." She said and we walked down the stairs and into the party. This was gonna be interesting.

   She was so excited to be there she was literally shaking with excitement. She soon saw Neville and looked at me, "Go ahead." She smiled and confidently walked over to him. Jeez I wish I could do that. Just walk up to Harry and say, 'hey I know I'm the twin sister of your enemy but I like you and was wondering would you go out with me.' But of course I'm a little wimp.

I watched Luna and Neville for half an hour giving her a 'good job you got him to dance now enjoy it' look, but then decided to go hang with some other friends. I searched the room and saw Harry and Ron sitting by themselves and Ron was glaring at someone, probably Krum. I walked over, sat down, and looked at Harry for an explanation.

"Shouldn't you be having fun with your dates? Heard they wanted to dance." I said. Ron gave me a look and continued to glare at Krum who was dancing with Hermione. "They found other people to dance with, guess they got bored." Harry replied for the both of them. "Well then I guess I'll hang with you because my friend is dancing with someone." I said and they nodded. "Hey do any of you ship Nuna?"

After a while of talking with Harry I saw quite a few people get drunk. "How'd that happen they only drank punch?" Ron asked. "Obviously, Ronald, the punch was spiked." I said. "Oh." Was all I got in response.

"Just stay away from that punchbowl and you'll be fine." I told them before jumping up. I saw Luna about to drink some punch. I got up and with a burst of speed I grabbed the cup and put it on the table. Luna looked confused. "The punch was spiked." I said gasping for air. She nodded, "thanks for looking out for me." She said. "No problem, anytime."

I spent the rest of the night talking to Harry. Ron would pipe in some times but then go back to glaring at Krum. Eventually it was coming to an end and they played one last song. "Wanna dance, it's the last song?" I asked Harry knowing that he most likely would say no. "Sure, why not?" He answered awkwardly and stood up. He reached out his hand and I gladly excepted it. He led me onto the dance floor and we danced goofily making each other laugh. It was as if no one was there.

But of course someone had to ruin it. "Lexi why are you dancing with Potter?" My brother asked. "Because he's my friend. And besides I wasn't bugging you when you were dancing with that Parkinson girl. What's her name again? Ohh yeah Pansy." I said cooly. "Harry let's go. It's getting late." I said dragging Harry behind me.

I also grabbed a drunk Ginny and Dean behind me. Didn't want to leave them out there like that. Once we entered I put Ginny to bed and Harry put Dean to bed. We met back downstairs. I plopped into one of the chairs and we talked about random things like usual.

In the middle of talking we heard the portrait hole open and close. I stood up and in a mock voice said, "Where have you been?" It turned out to be Hermione and she got the joke. "You know talking to friends." She replied. "A little more than a friend I would presume." I said wiggling my eyebrows. She rolled her eyes. "We aren't dating we're friends that wanted to get to know each other better." Then we heard a disgruntled voice come from someone on the stairs. "Yeah he's way to old for you anyway."

I looked at Hermione and saw a look of hurt flash across her face but it was quickly replaced by a look of anger. "Well at least Viktor had the guts to ask me and not as a last resort." We glared at Ron as Hermione walked up the stairs to the dorm. "I'll see you guys later." Was the last thing Hermione said to us before disappearing.

We all looked at Ron. "Really you just had to ruin her night!" I screamed at him."I'll talk to you guys later." I said before going upstairs after Hermione.
