'Ahahaha, you already lost before you even got to try' I laughed pointing to her as everyone else started laughing. She got up and ran out the Great Hall in tears.

'You know, Riddle. You take things way to far' Malfoy said running after her.

Apart of me felt jealousy. Why does he always defend her? I didn't even do anything, it's all her fault! Not mine?!

Soon, breakfast finished and we had a meeting in one of the other halls.

McGonagall was there along with Snape and Filch. Filch was toggling with the music player. I sat on the girls side, I was with the Gryffindor's sadly. I saw all the Slytherins and Gryffindors on the other side. Girls and Boys either side.

'The Yule ball has been a tradition of the Tri-Wizard tournament, since it's inception..on Christmas Eve night we and our guests gather in the great hall for a night of well-mannered frivolity. As representatives of the host school I expect each and everyone of you to put your best foot forward, and I mean this literally because the Yule Ball...is first and foremost, a dance' McGonagall announces

Oh you have got to be kidding me. A dance? What about the tournament. I can't even dance!

All the girls around me started to chatter excitedly as I opened a book and started to read. I didn't really want to listen so I'm reading about dark spells because I awkwardly slipped into the restricted section. I found something about a rare piece of magic. A Horcrux.

McGonagall then silenced the grunting of the boys and squealing of the girls.

'Silence! The house of Godric's Gryffindor and Salazar Slytherin as commanded the respect of the wizard world for nearly ten centuries, I will not have you in the course of a single evening besmirching those names by behaving like babbling bumbling band of baboons.' She said

I listened but didn't look up from my book. It was going to help me more than some dance. Plus Salazar probably would be doing what I was doing instead of going to the so called Yule ball. What pathetic thing to call a dance. It's not 1800's

'Breathe! Inside every girl a secret swan slumbers longing to burst forth and take flight' McGonagall's footsteps came towards us

There was no swan inside of me. More like a viper.

'Inside every boy, a lordly lion prepared to prance. Mr Potter'

I looked up from my book as she went over to Potter who sunk down in his seat

'Yes' he says lowly

'Will you join me please' she asked

I started sniggering as I got glared from the Gryffindor girls. He then stood up and took McGonagall's hand.

Everyone started 'oo' as Potter looked around urgently

I tried to contain my laughter until I got stopped by Snape

'Miss Peverell-Riddle will you join me please' he drawled

I froze as people stared at me smiling because they liked to see me embarrassed.

'Why?' I crossed my arms objectey

'Because I'm sure Mr Potter will need a partner' he said

I looked surprised

'Your joking.' I rolled my eyes

'Stand. Up.Now. Miss Peverell-Riddle' he exclaimed sternly

'Only because I'm forced to dance with one of my worst enemies, honestly you love mocking me' i sneered before jumping up and walking to the centre

I stared at Potter who was opposite me, I glared with hate.

'Now Mr Potter, please put your hand on Miss Peverell-Riddle's waist' McGonagall instructed as I looked shockingly at her

'Absolutely not' I pushed away

'Miss Peverell-Riddle the quicker you do this the quicker you can forget about it' Snape looks at me

'Where' Potter asked

'Her waist' McGonagall nodded

I scoffed before turning back. I felt Potter's hand hover over my waist and grip it. My breath hitched, nobody's even laid a finger on me before.

I then heard someone whistle at us as I turned to see who it was. But McGonagall stopped me, she forced my arm to be extended onto his shoulder as I stood awkwardly.

'Mr Filch if you please' Snape orders

I then heard the music intoxicate the room

'One two three, one two three, one two theee.' McGonagall shouted

I stepped forward and Harry stepped back, we surprisingly glided around the whole room. I kept a straight face. He then stopped and spun me around before going into a waltz. It was like the dance of enemies. The tension between us was very noticeable.

He then grabbed my waist and picked me up and spun me around before we made our final pose. I bowed and he bowed too.

I heard many people start to clap. That was one class waltz.

I went forward and shook his hand before leaving. Now, it was the only thing people wouldn't stop going on about
