Erika's POV 

I was twirling myself around and looked at the mirror

I was twirling myself around and looked at the mirror.

"Wow." Ginny came in. With her beautiful colorful dress.
I turned around and looked at her.

"Wow, Ginny. You look good." I said.
She giggled. "Thanks."

"Hermione and Belle are ready. They're waiting for us." she said.
"Okay, I'll be down there in a sec." I said.

Ginny nodded and left the room.
I twirled myself one last time and smiled.

I sighed and smiled.

"Okay! Let's do this."

I walked out of the common room and met Hermione, Belle and Ginny.
Belle saw me and smiled.

"Daebak, Unnie! Dangsin-eun aleumdawo." Belle said, with her aegyo.
Hermione and Ginny were surprised about that.

Belle looked at them, a little confused.
"What?" she asked.

"Belle...that was cute!" Hermione squealed.

Belle started to blush for what she did.
"Hehehehe...." she giggled, innocently.

I giggled along with Hermione and Ginny.

"By the way, Hermione and Belle. You two look absolutely beautiful." I said.
"Thanks, Erika. You are too. But Belle is the number one beautiful girl." Hermione said.

Belle was into that Blue Dress that she was given a few weeks ago.

"Thanks Hermione. But there's no number 1. We're all beautiful from inside and out." she stated.

Harry's POV
I walked into my bedroom and noticed Ron franking out about his robes.

"Bloody Hell." He mumbled.
He saw me through the mirror and turned to me.
"What are those?! What are those?!" He asked.

"My dress robes." I replied.
"Well, they're alright. No lace and no funny looking collar." Ron said.

"Well, I think your robes are like traditional." I said.

"Traditional?! They're ancient. I look like my Great Aunt Tessy." He said. Then he started to smell himself.

"Smells like my Great Aunt Tessy."

Ron and I went to the Great Hall where the ball was held. And as for Ron, he's been bothering his collar.

"Let it alone." I said.
He sighed.

"Do you think she'll come alone?" He asked.
"Who?" I asked.
"Hermione, of course. Nobody asked her." Ron replied.

"Well, you never know Ron." I said.

"By the way, who's Belle's date anyway? Heard she rejected every boy in Hogwarts." he said.
"I don't know who." I said.
"What about Erika? I'm sure every boy is after as well." Ron said.

I just shrugged.

As Ron and I got down the stairs. Kara noticed me. She smiled and walked up to me and wrapped her arm around me.
"Hi, Harry." she said.

"Hey." I uttered.

Then she noticed Ron. Her smile faded away.

"Weasley." she said.
Ron didn't answer her. Ron's date came.

"Don't you look....dashing." Padama said.
Ron remain quiet.

"Or rather nasty." Kara mumbled.
"Kara." I said.

She rolled her eyes at me and continued cuddling me.


Then McGongall came up to me.
"Mr. Potter, there you are. Are you ready?"Said Professor McGongall.
"Ready, Professor?" I asked.
"To dance. It's a tradition for the three champions or in case five will have to dance first.. Surely, you know about that." She said.
"No, I didn't." I replied.

"Well, now you know." She said.

Professor looked at Ron.
"Oh, Mr. Weasley you may enter the Great Hall with Miss Patil." With that Professor McGongall left.
Ron left with his date as well.

All of a sudden....

"Ugh, it's that mud-blood Granger."

I was about to shout at Kara, but I turned around and saw Hermione.

Erika's POV
"Okay, who's going first?" Hermione asked.

"Well....since you asked, Hermione. You should." Belle replied.
"What? I--I can't." Hermione stuttered.

Belle sighed and gently pushed her.
"Just go."

Hermione sighed and walked down.

"So elegant." Ginny said.
Belle and I nodded.

We saw her smiled and took Krum's hand.

So lucky. I thought.

"Okay, Ginny go." I said.

She nodded and walked down and met Neville.

"Okay, Belle. Go." I said.
"Aniyo, you go." she said.
"Mwoh? Wae?" I asked.

"Because, you're the oldest." Belle replied.
"We're 2 minutes apart." I stated.

Belle pouted.

Oh great. Here come the aegyo. I thought.

"Please.......Unnie." she said.

I sighed at that.

"Not working." I said.
Then she started to bring her hands and brought it to her cheeks.

"Bbuing Bbuing."

Oh Great! I thought.

"Oh fine. I'll go." I sighed out of defeat.

She giggled as I walked down.

"I better see you down there." I said.

As I walked downstairs, everyone's gaze was on me.
"Wow, she's beautiful."

"Wow."

I smiled and my gaze met Harry. He had a smile on his face.

He looks handsome. I thought.

Then his date...Kara Jackson glared at me.

I looked away and met Jace.

He looks....fine. I guess. I thought.

"You beautiful, Erika." he said.
"Thanks, you look great." I said.

He smiled and took my hand.
"Can we wait? I want to wait for my sister." I said.

He nodded with the smile on his face.

Isabelle's POV
I took a deep breath and walked downstairs. I met Erika's glance and she gave me a wink.
I giggled and I'm trying to find my date.

Where is he? I thought.

As I got down the stairs, Erika walked with Jace.
She gave me a 'see you in there' look.

I nodded and walked up to Harry.

"Hey, Harry." I greeted.
"Hey, Belle. You look beautiful." he said.

"Thanks, Harry. You look good as well." I said.

Then I glanced at Kara, who was giving me the death glare. Her dress was...well...revealing a lot.

I didn't even say anything to her.
"So, Belle. Where's your date? Professor McGongall says the Champions have to dance first." Harry said.
"Seriously? We have to dance first?" I asked again.

"Yeah." Harry replied.
"And about my date, I think you're going to be mad at me." I said.
"Why would I?" Harry asked.

"Well...you see." Someone tapped on my shoulder, making me turn around.
Figured out it was Malfoy.

And boy....he looks good.

"Sorry for keeping you wait, Belle." he said.
"It's okay." I said.

"He's your date?" Harry whispered to me.

I nodded.

Harry was about to say something, but Professor McGongall cut him off.
"Places everyone!" she said.

"I need a explanation right after." Harry whispered again.
I nodded, as Harry took Kara in line.

"Should we get in line as well?" Malfoy asked.
"Yeah." I replied.

Malfoy suddenly lend me his arm and I was quite surprised of that.
I smiled and took his arm.

We were right Harry and Kara. And we waited for our signal.
"You know...you look beautiful in that dress." Malfoy whispered.

Try not to blush, Belle. I thought.
"T-Thank you." I stuttered.

Then we heard trumpet playing and the grand doors opened.


~Long Chapter...I think~

~Translation~Aegyo is like acting very cute, like what Belle was doing, trying to let Erika go before her. 'Daebak' means 'Wow!' or 'Awesome' or 'Cool', etc

'Dangsin-eun aleumdawo' means 'You look beautiful'
Bbuing Bbuing is also aegyo.
'Wae' means 'Why' as well for 'Waeyo'They're the same
