I was walking with Ron and Harry in the courtyard as they were fussing over getting dates for the Yule Ball.
"Why do they always have to travel in packs? How are you supposed to get one alone to ask them?" Harry asked me.
As I opened my mouth to speak we walked passed a group of Ravenclaw girls, including Cho. Suddenly my green and black scarf became very interesting to me. Cho smiled at him and the girls were just waiting.

Harry stood there awkwardly and backed away. Once we were a good distance away I said,
"Honestly Harry, you've slayed dragons. If you can't get a date who can?"
"I think I'd take the dragon right now." Harry replied glumly. I giggled.
. . .
Later that day, during my free period I headed into the Great Hall where Harry, Ron, and Hermione were doing work at the table.
I walked over to them and sat down across from Hermione and next to Fred. I pulled out my potions journal to finish my essay and I noticed Ron turn to look around the room.
"This is mad. At this rate, we'll be the only ones in our year without a date."
At that moment, Snape was walking past and slapped Ron across the head.
"Well, us and Neville!" Ron whispered to Harry who chuckled slightly. "But then again he can take himself."
"It might interest you to know that Neville's already got someone." Hermione retorted.
"Who?" I mouthed with a furrowed brow.
"Ginny" she mouthed back. I nodded.
"Awww." Ron groaned. "Now I'm really depressed."
Then, Fred handed over a note to Ron. From upside down I could read it said, "GET A MOVE ON OR ALL THE GOOD ONES WILL HAVE GONE!"
Ron handed the paper back to Fred. "Who you going with then?"
Fred took a crumpled piece of paper and bit his lip, quirking his eyebrows towards his younger brother. He picked up the crumpled piece of paper and threw it at Angelina Johnson. It hit her on the shoulder and she turned around pissed.
"What?" she mouthed angrily.
"Do you wanna go to the ball," Fred mouthed while reenacting dancing in his seat. "with me?" He pointed to himself with his thumbs.
"The ball? Yeah, alright." she whispered back nodding.
I smiled as Fred winked at Ron.
"Well Hermione, you're a girl," Ron said turning to Hermione. Oh no.
"Oh well spotted." she retorted. Harry nudged Ron to stop. Snape hit Harry and Ron on the back of their heads.
"Come on. It's one thing for a bloke to show up alone. For a girl, it's just sad."
