Juliets yells and cheers were nearly the loudest ones in Hogwarts. She'd sure to lose her voice after she'd yelled her heart out when Cedric got past the dragon and got his egg. He was happy, smiling, and the sight made Juliet do the same as she continue to yell in joy and amazement. The Diggory boy caught her eye, sending a wining smile as the girls behind Juliet had a giggle fit, thinking he'd looked toward them.

"There's no way, Hermione, look at her." Ron said as he watched Juliet smile and clap for Cedric as he was praised, "A banshee, it's not possible. Juliets quite nice, and gentle, and smells like vanilla."

"You don't even know Ron, you could always just ask her." Hermione said annoyed. With the boys not talking she seemed to have to take both their drama just for herself. While Harry went on about Sirius and the tournament, all Ron could talk about was the possible outcome of Juliet being a banshee like Seamus said, "Even if she was, you'd still love you."

"Like hell I would." Ron said with a scoff, "I couldn't, evil creatures they are."

"They aren't evil, you said it yourself." Hermione said as she nodded to Juliet who looked anything but evil, her jacket and hufflepuff scarf around her neck tightly as she smiled.

"There's no way." Ron repeated himself, looking away quickly as Juliet caught his eye.

Within no time Juliet was in the Gryffindor section, making her way through the crowds of people to squeeze in next to Ron, "Ron, Hermione, nervous?"

"Nervous for what? Who's gonna die?" Ron asked in a panic as his voice shot up a octave as his greenish blue eyes widened in fear. Hermione wacked his arm quickly as the blood rushed to the Weasley boys face.

"No one I hope." Juliet said as she looked out at the arena, "Harry is next, isn't he?"

"How should I know? We aren't speaking." Ron said bitterly as Juliet hummed.

"Oh yes, how could I have forgot?" she asked, hearing if multiple times in the past.

"I reckon you're glad Cedric is okay." Hermione spoke up to switch the subject fast between the two before Ron had the chance to embarrass himself once again.

"You reckon correct, ten points to Gryffindor!" Juliet yelled as Hermione laughed while Ron cracked a grin as she pumped her fist into the air.

"Your voice is going to be blown, Juliet." Hermione warned her with a laugh as the Gryffindor stands cheered when Harry came into view. Ron's position changed as he held his breath tightly, despite the arguing the two were currently doing, Juliet could see he was worried. Taking her chances, the Knightly girl squeezed his hand under her glove covered one that he held onto so naturally, like he'd done it a million times before without hesitation.

Harry had succeeded and got part the Dragons much like Victor, Fleur, and Cedric did. From the note Hermione slide under Juliets door that night, it was safe to say Ron and Harry were thankfully friends once again. Juliet was thankful for that in a way, it felt like a whole damper was on Hogwarts when Harry and Ron where angry with the other.

"So, do you think we should wear yellow to the Yule ball? Or would that look to full of ourselves? No doubt Draco will be wearing green, of course, but would yellow be too much? I mean, I know we need to match of course, but maybe yellow isn't the right color." Juliet seemed to rant as she met Cedric outside, finding him sitting on the bench.

The Yule ball had been announced earlier this morning to the Hufflepuffs and Ravenclaws, currently being spoken to the Slytherins and Gryffindors. Juliet figured her and Cedric would go together, everyone expected it even, they did almost everything together.

"Sorry?" Cedric asked with a frown of his perfectly knitted eyebrows, sitting his notebook down by his side.

"The Yule Ball. We'll obviously need to match, but I wanted to run it by you before I send in our measurements to Mum." Juliet spoke as Cedric had a sudden look of guilt on his face as Juliet frowned her eyebrows, "Whats the issue with your face? Glue your eyebrows together?"

"I kinda already asked someone, Julie." Cedric said, his look only got more guilty as he watched her face fall, "And she said yes."

"Oh." Juliet said with a clear of her throat and faked a quick smile, something she was better at then she'd like to be, "Of course, sorry, I just assumed..."

"Maybe I can make arrangements, if you want." Cedric spoke quickly as he rose to his feet.

"No, no, don't worry about it. Guys fall at my feet, i'll find one." Juliet said with a clear of her throat as she waved him off before heading back into Hogwarts as her smile fell and jealously spread through her chest.

Hufflepuff professors were just as frightened over Snape as students were. They'd often times send their students to deliver their messages or something they'd borrowed. Sadly, Juliet pulled the short straw and was headed toward the class.

It was relatively quiet, only a few whispers from the Gryffindor table. Juliet gave Hermione a small smile on her way out, the fellow muggle born looked angry but offered Juliet a smile anyways. A group of Slytherin cat called Juliet as she walked past, making it known she had walked in to everyone else.

"Quiet." Snape spoke with no expression as he continued to read over the journals. Pansy gave Juliet a dirty look, mumbling the words mudblood under her breath while Blaise chuckled at her words. Draco avoided all eye contact with Juliet and has been ever sense she'd showed him a ridiculous amount of affection when she was unknown he was the farret.

"You could always ask Juliet." Fred pointed out with a grin toward Ron, the topic still on the two forth year boys needing dates.

"Blimey, you've gone mad." Ron said as his face flushed, "She'd never say yes."

"You two are friends now." Harry pointed out as Ron gave him a annoyed look, "Okay, sorry."

"She is pretty, isn't she, Ronnie?" George asked while watching Juliet speak quietly to Snape and hand him the note her professor order her to give with shaky hands.

"Bloody hell, course she is." Ron said with a half smirk, "Bet you five gallons shes already got a date to the ball.

"You don't have five gallons." Fred said with a look toward his younger brother, "Nows your chance, Ronnie, ask her."

"No way in Merlin." Ron said as he ducked his head when Juliet walked past them.

"Your loss." George said with a shrug as he turned, "Juliet, hey, Juliet."

Juliet passed next to the Weasley twin with a blink, "Hi George. Hello other Weasley twin, Harry Potter, Ronald."

"Hi." Ron's voice was soft and quiet toward her as Harry offered her a smile.

"Going to the Yule Ball, Julietey?" Fred asked her with a grin, using the nickname.

"Probably not, I don't know." Juliet said with a faint frown, she'd still been rather upset about earlier and has avoided Cedric at all cost.

"Do you wanna go with me?" George asked as Ron's mouth fell open while Fred looked with a smirk, "To the Yule Ball?"

Juliet was red in the face, a color that looked insanely beautiful against her dark skin. Snape snapped his head up as he heard the voices, fixing his eyes on Juliet who was still here, "Get back to class, Miss Knightly."

"I'd love to." Juliet smiled down at him from where she stood, "What color should we wear?"

"Now." Snape spoke with a knowing look her way.

"Red." George answered her with a grin as Harry hide a laugh with a cough at Ron's face.

"Miss Knightly, do not make me say it once more." Snape threatened as Juliet smiled widely.

"I'm going, Professor Snape." Juliet said as she hurried out of the room with a squeal and a large smile on her face.

"Don't you speak to me." Ron threaded his brother with a glare that was impossible to take serious.

"You said you didn't wanna take her, Ronnikins." George said, him and Freds laugher only fueling Harry to let out his own.

"Shut up, Harry." Ron threaten with the same glare and look in disbelief as he rose from his seat.
