Adrienne lupin was almost the chosen one. Now, the prophecy states that she is the one who has to die in order for the war to end. what happens when The chosen one ends up falling for her?
this will be a bit of a slow burn
I pulled out the dress that tonks had sent me while Hannah and Hermione were sitting on my bed. it was stunning. It resembled a white and purple Lisianthus, gorgeous and flowing with a low neckline and triangle-shaped cut-outs right at the curves of my waist. It had butterflies in a messy array up the right side that were charmed to flap their wings.

I covered my mouth with my hand "do you not think this is too much?" I asked, looking at the two who were already wearing their dresses and putting on their makeup
"No, Adrienne! you're going to blow everyone's socks off in that, is bloody gorgeous" Hannah said with a grin
"seriously, Harry won't be able to take his eyes off of you," Hermione said, elbowing me in the side
I snuck my nose up as I slipped on the dress, waving my wand to remove my clothes from underneath "I don't care what Harry thinks tonight." I lied
"yeah sure," she snorted. I looked in the mirror on my vanity and ran my fingers through my hair. I muttered a spell to add three inches to my hair, pulling it back into a fishtail braid that filled in the space of the nearly backless dress. I dug through my drawers and pulled out butterfly clips, charming them to flap just like the ones on the dress. I pulled out some pieces of hair to frame my hair along with my bangs, clipping the butterfly clips into the braid. I kept my makeup simple, just eyeliner, mascara and some blush. I looked at the heels tonks sent that was under the dress, just a plain pair of white pumps that made me go from 5'4 to 5'7. I ran my hands over the dress and looked at the other two who were waiting for me to finish "you two ready?" I asked with a nervous smile
"I'm meeting Blaise at the Slytherin common room, he wants to walk in together so you two go," Hannah said, giving both of us quick hugs before leaving
"are you ready?" I asked Hermione with a laugh
"I don't think so but let's go we're going to be late" she chuckled, hooking her arm in mine as we left my dorm. we quickly made our way to the great hall, pausing right before the last flight of stairs. we unhooked arms and looked at each other.
"don't fall" Hermione teased
"I'll certainly try not to" I snickered. I walked down the steps next to her, tempted to lift my dress to walk faster, but sticking with the elegant look. I held my hands in front of myself, fiddling with the rings that I never took off. I made eye contact with Harry, my stomach fluttering like the butterflies on my dress. he cleaned up nicely, wearing a classic tux dress robe, his hair in the perpetually messy state it always was. I watched him straighten his back, his lips parting as his jaw slacked open slightly. I noticed Parvati next to him and I gave her a smile once I reached the bottom of the staircase
"hi harry" I smiled and then looked back at Parvati "You look stunning," I said, giving her a wink.
"wheres your date?" she asked, a small blush appearing on her cheeks at the unexpected compliment
"behind you," I said, looking past her at fleur who was walking towards me. her dress was much simpler than mine but she still looked stunning it was a pleated grey dress with olive green flowers along the neckline and over her left shoulder. her hair was pulled into a low bun with a bit of feather put in it. she reached me and took my hand, placing a kiss upon it "shall we?" she asked, smiling softly
"We shall" I giggled, following her over to where the only champions and their dates were. I felt eyes burning holes in my bareback, making me smirk. I had a small conversation with Cedric and cho before we had to walk into the great hall. I looked around in awe, the light blue winter wonderland was absolutely enchanting.
"I'm not a great dancer" I whispered to her as I placed one hand in hers and one on her shoulder
"Follow my lead," she said, giving me a wink as she led me through the waltz
"you look...stunning," I said, feeling more at ease as we got into the rhythm of the dance
"as do you," she said, spinning me before pulling me flush against her. My face heated up as we separated and curtsied, a sign that the first dance was over.
"I thought you said you were a bad dancer?" she said with a laugh as the music got louder and a mosh pit formed
"I am! you're just an incredible one, so you made me look better than I actually am" I chuckled. after a few songs we decided to take a quick breather. I made my way to where Hermione, Harry, Ron and Padma were sitting together. Just as I got there, Hermione got up and stormed off. I looked at ron with a raised eyebrow "what did you do?" I asked as Padma left him as well.
I sat next to harry with a big smile "You know if you guys actually got up and danced you would have some fun" I teased, looking over at fleur who was conversing with Krum at the refreshment table. she waved me over and I smiled "excuse me, try to have some fun?" I said, pinching Harry's cheek playfully.
after a while and a final dance with fleur, her wanting to get some rest before the next task, I witnessed ron and Hermione yelling at each other
"what is going on with them?" I asked Harry, looking at him
"Why are you doing this?"
"Doing what?"
"galavanting around in that dress, dancing with someone I'm competing against!"
"galavanting around?!" I scoffed "what is with you?!"
"NO! what's with you, Adrienne?! Fleur couldn't possibly be interested in you, she just needed a date. if you needed a date you could've gone with me" his voice bled with jealousy
I looked at him in awe and anger "I'm so sorry that it's possible for someone to genuinely be interested in me. I might not be the prettiest or funniest girl ever-"
"I never said you weren't pretty or funny-" he protested
"well, you sure fucking implied it, harry! you have no fucking right to be mad at me. I was waiting for you to ask me you daft, conceded git!" I hit him in the chest "but you asked cho out. IN FRONT OF ME! you know how shitty that felt?!"
he opened his mouth to say something, but I held my hand up "I don't want to hear it. I thought we might've had something but I see that that was one-sided. not only did you make my night shitty but you did the same to Parvati, so don't talk to me until you've apologized to her." I turned to leave before turning to face him again
"I may not be the chosen one, but I will not be a second choice for you when I'm someone else's first choice." I said, narrowing my eyes at him "get out of my sight." he looked at me before walking in the other direction
I looked at Hermione who was crying on the steps. I sat next to her and wrapped my arms around her "they suck." I said softly, an angry tear finally escaping my eye
