Harry Potter: The Path of Destiny

"Draco should be coming to invite you to the ball in a few days!" Michelle said.

"He...he thought I had agreed to go to the dance with Klum, so..." So he won't invite me again! Besides, she had just asked him to invite other girls. Thinking of this, Nitya felt a little disappointed.

"Krum? Viktor Krum?" Hermione said in surprise.

"That Bulgarian Quidditch player?" Ginny also looked at Nydia in surprise.

"He actually invited you to the dance?" Michelle said.

"No! No, he didn't invite me." Seeing that the three of them mistakenly thought that Krum had invited her, Nydia quickly denied it, and then looked at Hermione, "Krum was indeed in the library yesterday. He came to me, and it was indeed about the dance, but the person Krum wanted to invite was not me, but Hermione. It was just that he was too embarrassed to speak, so he asked me to convey it to him. "

"What? He...he...why?" Hermione said in surprise, "I...I always found him quite annoying..."

"Hermione! That's Viktor Krum! How many girls hope to attend the prom with him!" Michelle said enviously.

"Yes! I saw a girl take the initiative to invite him today." Ginny nodded in agreement.

"He's just a Quidditch player...Those girls only like her because of his fame. I don't think he's good-looking at all." Hermione had not yet recovered from the shock.

"...Listen to what you said, you mean to reject him!" Nidia remembered that Hermione was quite disgusted with Krum before.

Hermione didn't speak, but Michelle on the side was anxious, "Promise him! Hermione, Krum too! If I remember correctly, Ron has been calling for his autograph."

"I also think you should agree to him. This will make Ron realize how good you are, and Krum invited you to the ball every year." Ginny also persuaded Hermione.

Hermione thought for a while, then looked at the other three people. It seemed that they were all expecting her to agree, "Okay... I have to find a dance partner anyway." After saying that, Hermione's cheeks flushed. A flush.

"Yeah! That's great!" Michelle jumped up from the bed happily, "Hermione is going to the dance with Viktor Krum!"

"Please! Michelle, please keep your voice down!" Hermione's face became even redder, "Can you guys not tell anyone else about this for now?"

"Are you worried about being criticized?" Nydia asked. After all, Krum is one of the warriors, and he is also a very famous Quidditch player. As long as you are involved with him, he will definitely become The center point of the topic.

Hermione nodded. "I don't want anyone to make a fuss about this."

"But, if this is the case, then Malfoy will always think that the person Krum invited is Nydia, then Nydia..." Ginny looked at Nydia worriedly.

"Nitya, you can tell Malfoy, it's okay." Hermione said, "But you just need to remind him to help keep it secret."

"I don't want to tell him the truth! Just let him keep misunderstanding!" After the argument, I immediately went to explain to him that I didn't want to lose face!

"What about the prom? Go alone? Or really go with others?" Michelle asked.

"I haven't thought about it yet..." Nydia looked at Michelle and Ginny, "Where are you two? Do you have any plans?"

Michelle and Ginny looked at each other, then shook their heads, and Michelle said, "How about the three of us go to the event together! Not those stinky boys."

"I can't." Ginny said disappointedly, "I'm only in the third year. If no one invites me, I can't attend the dance... I think I may have to go home for Christmas. , maybe that’s not bad either.”

"Go home?" Nidia thought of her father and Olivia and didn't know what was going on with them recently. "Maybe I can also consider going home for Christmas."

The whole next day, Nydia deliberately avoided Draco. She was now in a very conflicted mood. On the one hand, she was still angry with Draco, but on the other hand, she was worried that Draco might not really come to invite him. I was sad to attend the prom, and even afraid that he would actually invite other girls.

"All the girls are looking forward to the Christmas ball with smiles. Why are you looking so gloomy?" Nydia was sitting in a daze under the big tree in the courtyard when Chretien suddenly appeared from behind her. come out.

Nidia smiled reluctantly at Chretien, "Which girl did you invite to be your dance partner?"

"Furong." Chretien sat down next to Nydia, "She and I were the ones who attended most of the dances in the past. Fleur was arrogant and it was hard to find anyone she could like. But there are so many people who want to invite her every time, so I become her professional shield.”

"Are you really not a couple?" Nitya asked doubtfully, "Your relationship seems to be very close."

"We've known each other since we were little, and we have a really good relationship. We may be best friends, but we will never be boyfriend and girlfriend," Chretien explained.

"That's right..." Nidia nodded.

"Why are you alone here today? Where is your little dance partner?" Chretien asked.

"I don't have a dance partner yet," Nydia said a little aggrievedly, "Draco didn't invite me to the dance."

"What do you mean? Could it be that he still dares to invite others?" Chretien frowned and said with a hint of anger.

"No..." Nidia told Chretien what happened.

Chretien touched Nitya's head and comforted her, "I will not let Nitya go to the ball alone. Let that brat regret going."

"Don't do anything else. I have decided to go back to Field Manor for Christmas." Nidia said to Chretien.

"No, you can't miss the Christmas ball. Wait for me here. I'll be back in a moment." Chretien smiled gently at Nidia, then stood up and walked away.

In the boys' dormitory of Slytherin House, Draco was restlessly leaning on his bedside, frowning. His mind kept thinking about what Nitya said yesterday, so did she agree to someone else's dance request because he didn't extend it to her?

"No, I'm going to find Krum!" Draco sat up from the bed.

"What are you doing!" Blaise looked at Draco warily. He had been praying all day long that Krum would not appear in front of Draco, otherwise it would be difficult to guarantee that Draco would not rush up and follow him. He duels. "Krum is considered a foreign guest now, you can't mess with him."

"But I can't sit here and watch him go to the ball with Nydia," Draco said. "Now, just thinking about him possibly dancing with Nydia in his arms makes me want to punch him. "

Sure enough, isn't this exactly what I was worried about! Brace felt a headache, "Actually, I think the key to the matter lies with Nidia. As long as Nidia is unwilling to go to the dance with Krum, then they won't dance together!"

"But she has already promised Krum!" Every time he thought of this fact, Draco felt extremely uncomfortable.

"She can regret it! Girls' minds are always so capricious anyway, so we just need to make Nidia regret it," Brace said. "I think Nidia will definitely want to be with you even more." Went to the dance together."

"Does she still want to go to the prom with me now..." What Draco was originally sure about now became less certain. She got angry and agreed to someone else's invitation, and even asked herself to be invited as well. other people. Would she really rather go to the prom with her?

"How about I go talk to Nitya and see what she thinks now? If we talk directly to you two, maybe we won't be able to say a few words before we start to quarrel again?" Brace suggested.

"Okay!" Draco thought for a while. Indeed, he was in a very confused mood now. The fact that Nidia agreed to someone else's invitation made him sad and angry. If he was allowed to talk to Nidia at this time, I'm afraid it's difficult for me to control my emotions.
