'The yule ball has been a tradition of the Triwizard 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.'

Dracos face was filled with boredness. You smiled and him and he smiled back.

'As representatives of the hosts school I expect each and every one of you to put your best foot forward... and I mean this literally because the yule ball is first and foremost a dance.'

There was talking through the room. Everyone was asking each other who they were going to ask. You just looked at Draco who rolled his eyes at a remark of Vincent.

'Silence!' McGonagall spoke.

Silence filled the room.

'The house of Godric Gryffindor has commanded the respect of the wizard world for nearly ten centuries.'

Always those Gryffindors...

'I will not have you in the cost of a single evening besmirching that name behaving like a babbling bumbling band of baboons.'

Gorge and Fred whispered something and then repeated babbling bumbling band of baboons three times. You sighed and rolled your eyes.

'Now to dance is to let the body... breathe. Inside every girl a swan of slumbers, longing to burst forth and take flight.'

Of couse... Draco grinned at you. Ron made a comment which you could hardly understand.

'Inside every boy a lordly lion prepared to prance.'

You smirked at Draco who rolled his eyes.

'Mister Weasley.' McGonagall spoke while walking towards him.

'Yes.' He spoke softly.

'Will you join me please?'

He got up slowly and walked with McGonagall. This was going to be good.

'Now, place your right hand on my waist.'

'Where?' He asked.

You grinned with some other students.

'My waist.'

Fred and gorge whistled at Ron and students started laughing and talking.

'One, two, three.' McGonagall spoke leading Ron over the floor.

You couldn't help but laugh and your friends joined in. It looked so awkward.

'Everybody come together. Boys on your feet!'

You got up with the rest of the girls. No boy was excited to get up. Draco was the first one to get up. Everyone looked at him and he offered you his hand. You smiled and grabbed it. He led you to the floor.

'Show me that secret swan of slumbers.' He whispered.

'Sure, if you show me your inner lion.' You smirked.

You started dancing and weren't ashamed at all since you both knew how to dance. He turned your around and you smiled at him.

'Very good! Very good! Who's going to join?'

Slowly more students joined in. You heard people complain about standing on each others feet while you and Draco just enjoyed. You smiled and the music stopped.

'Keep practising and don't forget to ask someone! You don't want to be going alone. Class dismissed.' McGonagall spoke.

You tangled your fingers with Dracos and left the classroom.

'So how are you going to ask?' Vincent asked Gregory.

'I don't know man...'

You looked at Draco who smiled at you.

-

'Guys... have you seen Draco? After the yule ball practice he disappeared.'

Gregory and Vincent looked up from their plates.

'No, we thought he was with you.' Vincent spoke with his mouth filled with food.

'I'm going to look for him.' You sighed while getting up.

Gregory grabbed your wrist.

'Draco can take care of himself. First eat.'

'Gre-'

'Sit.'

You sighed and sat down. You grabbed some food.

'Why can't I just look for him?'

'You don't want to... believe me.' Vincent spoke.

Gregory hit him with his elbow making Vincent gasp in pain.

'You know what he's doing?! Tell me!'

Gregory looked at Vincent and shook his head.

'We can't tell you.' Vincent sighed. 'But you'll find out soon.'

You sighed and took a bite of your chicken. What in wizards name could he be doing? Why didn't he tell you?

'He's not doing anything dangerous.' Gregory assured you.

'Just tell me, I won't tell him that you told me.'

'We can't... sorry.' Vincent spoke before shoving a huge piece of meat in his mouth.

You took another bite of your chicken and sighed. Gregory looked up and then pushed his plate away.

'Let's go guys.'

'I'm not done yet.'

'So you don't want to see Draco?'

You sighed and got up.

'Follow us.' Vincent smiled.

You followed them.

'O wait... We have to cover her eyes.'

You looked at them in confusion. Gregory put off his scarf and covered your eyes with it. He grabbed your arm.

'Just trust me.' He spoke.

He slowly led you through the corridor.

'Watch you step.'

You stepped a bit forward and felt the snow press together under your shoe. The cold wind made a small chill rol down your spine. They led your through the snow. Then they stopped you and Vincent got rid of the scare.

'Bye.' Gregory smiled and they walked away.

You looked around and saw that you were standing next to the tree near the lake where you would always sit with Draco. It was surrounded by candles and the sky was covered in stars.

You looked around and suddenly someone offered you a rose. You turned around and saw Draco. You took the rose with a blush and some students gathered around to see what was going on.

'Draco-'

'Will you go to the yule ball with me?' He asked without hesitation.

You smiled.

'Of course I want to go to the yule ball with you.' You smiled before kissing him.

He pulled back and smiled at you.

'You didn't have to do all this. I was already expecting that we'd go together.' You blushed.

'I wanted to ask you in a special way because you're a special person.'

-

You were having breakfast in the Great Hall. You took a bite of your toast and yawned after you swallowed it.

'Someone's tired.' Gregory grinned.

'Just a bit.' You sighed before rubbing your eyes and trying to wake up.

You took a sip of your pumpkin juice and owls started flying in. You looked up and saw your house owl with a huge package. It dropped it right in front of you and immediately flew away. There was an envelope on top. You grabbed it and opened it.

Dear Y/N,

Here is a small gift for you. It's a dress for the yule ball! Have fun there and we'll see you during Christmas!

Your parents.

'O my gosh... my parents send me a dress.' You smiled.

'Seriously? My parents refuse to send me anything. I have to buy my own.' Gregory complained.

'May I see?' Draco asked.

'Yes, when I arrive at the yule ball.' You grinned.

Draco sighed. 

'Come on love... Please.' He begged.

You shook your head and grinned.

'I'm sorry but I want it to be a surprise.' You explained before kissing him on the cheek.

'My mother send me something as well...' Vincent spoke. 

He opened the package and took out a black suit. He looked at it.

'It isn't as ugly as Rons dress robes.' He grinned.

You looked at the Gryffindor table and saw Ron holding a dress like outfit.

'Are that dress robes?! Looks like a dress to me.' You grinned.

Ron shot you a disgusting look and you smirked in response.

'Will look beautiful on you Weasley, fits your girl like appearance.' You joked.

You heard Slytherins grin around you.

'You can also just ask your sister if you want to wear dresses.' Draco smirked.

'Shut up Malfoy. I'm sure you'll look more horrible that I will.' Ron tried to insult him.

'Do you really think a boy in a dress will look more stunning then a Malfoy in a high class suit? Don't be ridiculous.' Draco grinned. 

Hermione sighed and Ron put the robes away and closed the box in an angry way.

'Calm down Ron, they're not worth it.' Harry sighed.

You chuckled and took a bit from your toast with an enjoyable smile.

'What are you sm-'

'Ronald stop.' Hermione sighed.

You grinned and shook your head. You just loved teasing the Gryffindors.

'Nicely going Y/N!' Vincent grinned.

'I'm in a good mood today, like to tease some Gryffindors.' You smiled.

Draco looked at you with a small blush and a cute smile. You smiled back and his cheeks got even redder. He quickly took a bite from his toast and you grinned.

'I'm sure you're dress will be amazing Y/N! If your parents bought it for you.' Gregory smiled.

'Can we shut up about the dress... I'll only get more curious.' Draco sighed.

'I'm sorry Dray... but a surprise from time to time can be fun.' You smiled.

'Wait... what did you just call him?' Vincent asked in confusion.

'Dray.' You simply answered.

'Is that something new? Can we call Draco Dray?' Vincent asked.

'Are you my girlfriend? No. So can you call me Dray? Hell no. I call Y/N love or beauty, but you don't have to right to call her that.' Draco explained.

Vincent immediately shut up and shoved some food in his mouth. You grinned and continued eating...
