Ginny Weasley hopped enthusiastically to the astronomy tower.
She's wearing her blue sundress and hummed happily along the way.
When she's about to make a turn from sixth floor, Neville Longbottom stand on her way and stopped her.
"Neville! You startled me!"
"I'm so sorry Ginny.. I didn't mean to..."
"It's okay. Umm... I have to go now Neville, bye"
"Wait Ginny!"
"Yes Neville?"
"Willyougowithmetotheball?"
"What?"
"Will you.. go with.. with me to the.. the ball?"
Ginny stunned.
Wait, what?!
"Neville, why'd you asks me?"
"Umm because you're pretty. And I thought that you would like to go with me. Just as friend"
Ginny groaned inwardly. What will Draco think about this? Will he get mad? Of course he'll get mad Ginny! You're his girlfriend!
Ugh! But I don't want to let Neville down! Besides he asks me nicely. And just as friend.
Yeah but Draco will go ballistic if he knows you're not going to the ball with him.
Is he even gonna asks me?! I'm not sure. We have agreed to keep our relationship a secret. Surely, he can't take me to the ball now can he? Because people will know that we're together.
Yes but he still your boyfriend. You should talk to him first
No. He's not the boss of me! I can do what I want! Besides, it'll be just as friend with Neville.
"Okay"
"Really?!"
"Yes. But only as friends" Ginny stressed the word friends and Neville's face beams in happiness
"Of course! Just friend! Thank you Ginny! You're so nice"
"It's okay Neville. Don't mention it"
"Thank you Ginny"
Ginny smiled at him
"Well, that's settled. Is there anything else you want to say Neville?"
"No Ginny"
"Okay. Well I'll be off now. I have somewhere to be. Bye Neville"
"Bye Ginny. And thanks again"
"Don't mention It. Bye Neville"
Ginny continue to walked to astronomy tower
But, Draco Malfoy suddenly get in her way and he looks terribly angry. Ginny shrieked and clutched her heart
"What was that about?!"
"Draco! You startled me!"
"What. Was. That??!"
"What was what? You give me a fright! Why did you have to stand in the middle of the corridor?!"
