I looked around at the beautiful icy ballroom it was a gorgeous sight, even though i was here with the Malfoy's maybe this would be somewhat of a decent night i looked around as we walked in I spotted Arthur Wesley and soon enough George Wesley had been walking over to his father with drinks, he seemed to be the only Weasley child there humph i thought this was interesting to me why he was the only one there but i guess i would find out Narcissa looked towards me.
"go have fun go mingle! this is a ball after all maybe you'll meet a cute boy"
"thanks" i replied to her nicely since she was being overly nice to me it was weird so then i took a shot and walked over to the Weasley's and smiled,
"Hello George!"
"Scarlet!!!"
He hugged me so tight i thought i was going to explode i chuckled as i looked at his ball attire it was well gentlemen like his hair was always the same but he cleaned up very nice in a suit and bow tie his father was smiling at us i could see it from the corner of my eye, George had pulled away and looked at his father and I was blushing my skin was heated i was getting embarrassed i had no clue why but i was George looked at me again did his cute little smirk.
"Dad this Scarlet Snape she's a slytherin at Hogwarts but she's the nicest ever"
I couldn't stop blushing i wasn't that good of a person i knew this i was quite terrible but i guess he just didn't see it,
"Scarlet this is my dad Arthur"
I smiled shaking the gingery man's hand smiling
"it's nice to meet you sir"
"Likewise Scarlet"
George looked at me and it looked like a light bulb clicked into his prankster skull,
"Scarlet you're father isn't apart of the ministry why are you here?"
I sighed
"Well as you both know it's Christmas eve well my parents well they both got letters they both had to go rushing off to something so they dropped me off with my mums aunt and uncle they sadly just so happened to be the Malfoy's so the Malfoy's brought me along to this because there was no where else for me to go"
His face immediately changed to sadness he gave his father a look I sighed and smiled at the same time i knew there was no possibility of me going back with them instead of the Malfoy's, I looked around the room as George spoke
"Can you excuse my father and I for a second"
I nodded as they walked a far distance away from me so i couldn't hear them George looked to me and back to his father and sighed beginning to speak like an adult to his father.
"Dad it's Christmas eve I can't let her spend it with them of all people that's not a family! that's a death sentence to that girl!"
Arthur sighed
"son you are right but that means we need to talk to your mother and siblings and Hermine"
"Then let's send her an owl and ask her before the ball is over Tonk's is her mum after all she won't care"
"fine son i'll run to my office and send your mum an owl now go spend time with her and keep her distracted well i go do this"
"yes dad"
George walked back to Scarlet preying his mum will allow it he did like her he didn't want her to spend Christmas eve with them he sighed and stood beside her with a smile on his face,
"Scarlet would you do the honors of dancing with me?"
I turned shocked my dress was not the best but i loved it and George just seemed happy enough seeing my face as he smiled, i smiled back i had a feeling this was going to be a fun night just as he asked me a nice slow song came on it was so cheesy but so perfect at the same time,
"That sounds amazing"
He took my hand leading me to the dance floor i smiled following him in my heels i giggled as he pulled me right to him putting his hands around my waist as i put mine around his neck laying my head around his chest, as we slowly danced around just small little steps we took slowly it felt so peaceful with him there by my side it felt so perfect, soon the song ended i didn't want to let go as i tilted to my head i saw nothing but Draco scowling i sighed.
Arthur walked to his office in the their was no people anywhere to be seen so he got to his office quiet quickly looking on his desk for a peace of parchment paper to write on as his common brown owl sat in its cage he smiled and finally found a piece pulling it out he wrote to his wife,
"Molly,
At the ball we have ran into Tonk's daughter George seems to really like her its Christmas Eve and the way i understand it both Tonks and Severus got pulled into two emergency's and couldn't leave her home alone, understandable She is currently staying with the Malfoy's I do see this as unfair i have heard the story of here this is her first family Christmas, and she's with the Malfoy's i do wish to bring her back and so does George if it is okay with everyone else. We are doing okay here the ball will be over very soon"
He sent off the letter immediately sitting in his desk chair doing some catch up work to pass the time, George and I kept dancing have fun we put a puking pastel in one of Malfoy's drink waiting for it to kick in Draco walked over to us smiling,
"well well the blood trai-"
He stopped speaking and vomit went all over me i screamed as it went everywhere i was so disgusted, George looked shocked more then anything, Narcissa ran over to see my dress covered in her son's vomit she couldn't speak i wanted to puke my self it was so disgusting.
"I'm so sorry my dear"
She took me to change and gave me the ugliest brown frayed dress to wear i came walking back in and George ran over taking off his suit jacket putting in on me he looked at me and smile,
"Just wear my jacket"
Arthur got an owl back from Molly his wife reading it out loud to himself,
"Arthur everyone here is okay with it no one should have to spend their first Christmas with the Malfoy's so please bring her come and i will start to make a bed for the girl we will all see you soon"
Arthur nearly was running to the ballroom just to get there before it ended he saw Scarlet in an ugly dress with Georges suit Jacket covering the dress, he had no clue what happened in the half hour he was gone but he didn't think he wanted ti know, but he was going to ask anyways he walked up towards George and Scarlet looking at both of them,
"What happened?"
"Draco vomited all over her so Narcissa gave her that ugly dress so i gave her my coat to cover it up dad what did mum say"
he sighed feeling terrible that it had happened that way,
"She said yes so tell the wonderful lady whats going on now well i deal with Narcissa and get your clothes"
He smiled brightly as his father walked away
"you're coming home with us for Christmas Scarlet we talked to my mom she said you could come stay with us instead of the Malfoy's"
my heart rose this was amazing news as Arthur walked up to Narcissa she smiled he looked at her and sighed
"well we are taking Scarlet from you she's going to come spend Christmas with us do you mind if i get her clothes from you and that will be that"
Narcissa looked offended to him as she spoke snobby
"Her parents entrusted her to us for Eve she's staying with us"
"She's coming with us after your son just vomited on her if your child was feeling sick you should of just kept him at home"
He grabbed the bag of clothes i used a spell to bring my things from the Malfoy's it popped into my hands as George grabbed it carrying it for me, he smile putting and arm around me as Arthur looked at him smiling,
"Everyone ready to go?"
"MEEEEEE" i said excitedly
George nodded to his father as we walked out of the Ministry and too a baby glue flying car this was new to me as George opened the car door for me, i giggled as we all got into the car i smiled as Arthur pulled out of the ministry and we drove in the air for about thirty minute's it was a nice calming car ride George sat in the back with me i guess to make me more comfortable,i kept looking out the window as i felt someone grab my hand i looked over to George as he was holding my hand i smiled at him it felt good as the car hit the ground i knew we where here the Burrows.
I smiled climbing out of the car as George and Arthur lead me through to show me where i was going i was greeted by Molly Weasley their mother,
"Hello dear it's our pleasure to have you"
She hugged me motherly and smiled Ginny Ron Fred and Hermione just smiled and waved since they knew me i slightly felt over whelmed by everything so i decided to take a breather outside, i walked out and leaned on the rail as i felt hands around my waist and i head on top of mine it was George he spoke so softly,
"I know everything right now is over whelming but you'll get use to them"
I could tell he was smiling i sighed this was going to be a little hard for me and i knew it he spun me around so quick i didn't know what hit me as i felt warm soft lips upon my own, he... he was kissing me i couldn't believe it George Weasley kissing me i wanted to faint.
