The Order

Chapter Ten

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,
