[HP Fred] I was the school belle at Hogwarts
Chapter 79 Is it so easy to invite a goddess?
On December 12th, the first dance class began.
In order to prevent the Yule Ball from leaving the other two schools with the impression that Hogwarts students danced like baboons, the school attached great importance to this dance tutorial and specially arranged a dance classroom, requiring every fourth-year student and above to To participate, of course, those under fourth grade can also come and observe.
In Slytherin dance class.
The tables and chairs have been removed, and there is an empty space in the middle with only a gramophone, and two rows of benches placed against the walls.
Everyone whispered about the upcoming dance class, and for the first time men and women seemed to be distinct.
This is the perfect opportunity. The boys are dreaming about having the opportunity to dance with the girl they like, and then invite her to be their dance partner. The girls are also hoping that the boy they have a crush on will come to them. ,send invitation.
The youthful hormones burn, crackle, and jump like sparks in a campfire...
As the door was pushed open with a bang, the dean took a few strides to the middle of the classroom without looking back.
Although he usually has a straight face, he looked extra serious today, and even looked at each of them with a look of disgust.
As the dean, Snape reluctantly looked at the large classroom with more than a hundred students. It wasn't until everyone became serious as usual during potions class that he spoke, "Dumbledore said you need to have dance lessons. But I think it’s unnecessary!”
"Ballroom dancing is a necessary quality for social activities. I believe that all the gentlemen and ladies here should not be able to do it!"
Well, the hormonal fire in their hearts was ruthlessly extinguished...
The dean had no intention of teaching them, and the students present were too embarrassed to stand up and say that they no longer knew how to do it. After all, ballroom dancing is a compulsory course for traditional wizard families, and saying so would only bring shame to their surnames.
"It's a pity. I was also curious if the dean would have to pull a face if he danced ballroom dancing!" Susie suppressed a smile and lowered her head to joke with Sigrid.
Seeing that no student had any objections, Snape felt relieved. Even if he was cut out, he would not give these brats silly demonstrations of some bullshit ballroom dancing.
Snape asked them to form a team to practice if they needed to, and then left with peace of mind. The dean had left, and Sigrid quickly pulled Susie away, leaving her to know how to refuse if someone invited her.
Sigrid and Susie left, and then the trio of Malfoy, Blaise, and Pansy also left. The wizards watching around them left one after another, as if they were afraid that if they were still standing here, they would prove that they could not even learn the most basic ballroom dancing. None of them are country bumpkins.
Slytherin's ballroom dancing teaching was just a thing of the past, while Gryffindor's was another lively scene.
Basically, more than 200 people from the entire academy packed the classroom to capacity. Even the little wizards in first and second grade who had little hope of being invited cherished this learning opportunity.
Professor McGonagall patiently taught the students the most basic dance steps and emphasized some precautions. Although the girls present couldn't help but gather around and giggle strangely because of Professor McGonagall's teaching and demonstration...
The boys stood to the side. Although they were embarrassed or laughing as they watched Professor McGonagall teach Ron how to dance ballroom step by step, everyone was actually watching very seriously.
"Okay, let's start practicing now. Men and women line up on both sides of me." Professor McGonagall finished the demonstration and looked at the giggling students with a straight face. "This is nothing to be shy about. Everyone has to practice!"
Everyone lined up one after another, consciously standing in a row with the opposite sex who wanted to dance. Fred stood opposite Ginny without hesitation.
He had a feeling that he would be in bad luck if he practiced with a girl other than his biological sister.
Ginny blushed and protested "Fred, I don't want to practice with my real brother! Please!"
Fred said with a smile, "No, think about it, after all, I am your brother who can spend money to subscribe to forums and newspapers for you!"
Ginny raised her head helplessly...Forget it, she didn't have to go to the dance with him anyway.
The two of them walked according to Professor McGonagall's rhythm, and the whole classroom was filled with chaotic footsteps, and occasionally complaints and laughter could be heard.
Most girls learn faster than boys. Ginny has found some skills and started to get started after just one dance, but Fred is not so good.
After being stepped on several times, Ginny finally couldn't help but asked, "Do you still want to learn?" She suspected that Fred didn't listen to Professor McGonagall's teachings at all.
"Ginny, girls need to be gentle, especially when facing the opposite sex!" Fred reminded him seriously, ignoring his sister's accusations.
"If Sigrid knew you danced like this, she wouldn't be gentle!" Ginny whispered back to him.
Okay, he did get scolded a lot on Valentine's Day last semester...but that's not his fault, right? Fred looked around at the boys who looked to be about the same level as him and nodded confidently.
As the Christmas holiday approaches, everyone is busy looking for dance partners. If they can't invite a dance partner, they will be embarrassed to sign on Professor McGonagall's list of students staying on campus.
Harry Potter has been very troubled recently because he has rejected three girls who invited him to the ball, and they all looked cute.
Watching the girls leave in disappointment one by one, although Harry defended with a firm look on his face, "They just came because they saw me as a warrior and wanted to be the lead dancer at the Yule Ball!" But Ron, Dean and others were not impressed by his attitude. Still very dissatisfied with the behavior.
Waterlogging will kill you, drought will kill you, but a beautiful woman comes to you and refuses her cruelly. What a bitch!
Another lady who was really annoyed by being invited as a dance partner was Lindsay Hall. She couldn't understand how she could still be pursued by people after she had been making money in a low-key manner, and she didn't look like a beautiful woman. , from the classroom to the cafeteria to their editorial office, they are simply lingering.
Lindsay rushed into the office and happened to see the Weasley twins sitting idle on the sofa waiting for her. She had an idea and rushed over.
Fred saw Lindsay coming towards them, looking like he was about to make some big move, so he reflexively held the back of the sofa, rolled it up and hid behind the sofa. He was still smiling and waiting to see George, who was watching the entanglement between a man and a woman. He was caught as a young man.
Lindsay rushed over and took George's arm, "I already have a dance partner! It's Weasley!"
The wizard stopped at the door and looked suspiciously at the two completely different people.
George didn't want to get into trouble, so he quickly and secretly withdrew his arm, but Lindsay caught his weak spot. "The money you owe is written off in one go -" George hesitated.
She lowered her head and continued to discuss the terms in a low voice, "I'll cover your dress too!"
"Please, Weasley!"
Fred, who also heard the conditions, lightly poked George's shoulder from behind.
——Hurry up and agree. With such good conditions, what are you waiting for?
George glanced at the wizard staring at them at the door and admitted, "Yes, I just invited Miss Hall this morning!"
The wizard was very sure that the two of them had just formed a temporary group, but he had no choice but to close the door and leave.
Lindsay breathed a sigh of relief and shook off George, "Thank you, I owe you one!"
"You're welcome, don't forget your promise!" Fred interrupted with a smile!
Last time, in order to attract more people to participate in the strike on the forum, they spent a lot of money, a total of 500 gold galleons! The forum share for that month was all spent, and there was not much left for this month. They were here to bargain today.
Lindsay kept her promise and took out a large bag of gold galleons from the drawer. "500 gold galleons, count them!"
At this time, George's displeasure at being bought by his brother disappeared, and he and Fred looked at the big bag with bright eyes.
"No need to count, we are all old partners!" Fred cast a shrinking spell and stuffed the money bag into George's pocket. "Thank you on George's behalf!"
It wasn't until the Weasley brothers left happily that Lindsay collapsed on the sofa and closed her eyes in relaxation...
In fact, I called them here today because I wanted to return the money to them. After all, I have a certain responsibility for what happened to Snake Flower. The gold galleons spent should be used to pay for the advertising fees for her school newspaper and forum!
But it’s not bad to let the Weasley brothers think it’s George’s money for selling himself, at least he doesn’t have to worry about a dance partner!
After saying goodbye to Lindsay Hall, Fred put his arm around George's neck and comforted, "Be happy, brother! You earned 500 gold galleons for us, and you don't have to wear the old dress robes you inherited from Percy or Bill. With a beautiful female companion - you are guaranteed to make money without losing money!"
"Thank you, why don't you go for such a good thing!" George shook off Fred who was digging a hole for himself.
"You know, I have a dance partner!" Fred spread his hands helplessly.
"It seems you haven't invited her yet?" George asked suspiciously.
"Does this still need an invitation? Isn't this a sure thing?" Fred didn't even think about it.
George stopped and said sincerely, "You'd better invite me formally, brother!"
"Merlin's beard!" Fred, who was belatedly aware of this, also stopped, and something that he had not been able to figure out suddenly became clear to him.
When he and Sigrid were dating recently, she never mentioned the ball, and she didn't seem to be in high spirits. He also wondered if they had gone from the so-called running-in period, the passionate love period, to the dull period - Sigrid Have you started to lose interest in him?
Now he was sure that his little girlfriend was definitely having trouble because he had delayed inviting her for so long!
The two of them went to the cafeteria with their own concerns.
In the cafeteria, several Gryffindors sitting together were thinking about inviting dance partners. "Do you think there is any hope for me to invite the school beauty?" Li looked at Sigrid coming in from the gate and asked his companions for their opinions.
"By you?" Dean Thomas almost laughed.
"As far as I know, no wizard has invited her yet! But I'm sure half of the wizards don't have the courage to invite the school beauty. The remaining half of the wizards are waiting like me, waiting for the school beauty to reject an invitation before inviting her!" Li touched his chin and spoke firmly.
"Why?" Seamus Finnigan asked, putting down his cup of pumpkin juice.
"Because no one wants to be the first man to be rejected by the school beauty!" Li replied seriously.
The surrounding Gryffindors laughed and agreed with Lee Jordan's analysis. It was really embarrassing to be the first man to be rejected in public. The popularity of the school belle would definitely make the headlines, but privately... I think... What, you still have a chance to meet the goddess in private?
The Weasley brothers happened to come in from outside at this time, and they came together and said, "What's the fun?"
"Li wants to invite the school beauty, but he doesn't want to be the first boy to be rejected by the school beauty!"
George pushed Fred forward directly, "This is not easy, let Fred be your cannon fodder!"
Fred agreed without hesitation, but he couldn't wait a day longer. What if Sigrid really agreed to someone else out of anger?
Fred straightened his back, "Boys should take the initiative when it comes to inviting dance partners. Let me show you how!"
So, under the watchful eyes of several Gryffindor wizards, Fred walked through the Ravenclaw table and stopped at Slytherin's territory.
When a bit of red invades a patch of green, it's really eye-catching. Now many eyes in the cafeteria fell on the red-haired Weasley.
Fred stopped at Sigrid's place, but his little girlfriend didn't even look at him and continued to eat by herself. He was even more sure that she was angry.
"Cough-cough" Fred said, regardless of the unfriendly looks from the Slytherins around him, "Hi, Stuart, can you be my dance partner at the Yule Ball!"
Fred's voice was not quiet, especially in the cafeteria, which was deliberately silent after noticing his movements.
Oh my God, he actually said it! Still in the most crowded cafeteria, in front of a group of Slytherins who were watching eagerly, it was really courageous. Many people opened their mouths in surprise!
Lee Jordan was even moved by his good brother's loyalty and grabbed George's arm excitedly.
Fred was actually willing to be the first wizard rejected by the school beauty for him! What a touching brotherhood this is!
Sigrid didn't expect Fred to be so aggressive. She thought that at least Fred would be more reserved and invite her out alone before inviting her. Isn't that how other boys invite female companions?
In recent days, she had thought about more than a dozen scenarios where Fred would invite her. Maybe it would be a classroom or an observatory where two people were dating alone; Anyway, it won't be in such a crowded cafeteria.
Sigrid, who was completely unprepared, was blindfolded, and her face couldn't help but turn pink, but she still tried hard not to get too carried away.
In the eyes of others, she became a goddess. She was suddenly invited casually by the cynical Weasley, and she was a little embarrassed and became angry.
Although they knew it was impossible to succeed, everyone was happy to watch the show, especially to see how the goddess coldly refused in front of everyone, and then decisively walked away.
However, the goddess did seem to say something very coldly, and she did step away decisively, but she didn't seem to mean to refuse...
--Um?
"As you wish, Weasley!"
--What does it mean? Did she agree?
She, Ju, Ran, agree, agree?
——So it’s so easy to invite a goddess?
This was the collective voice of all the wizards who had thought of inviting Sigrid. They watched the goddess leave without looking back, and then watched Fred return to Gryffindor territory with a victor's look on his face.
The Gryffindors all welcomed Fred back as warmly as they welcomed a warrior who defeated the fire dragon. After all, it was so satisfying to snatch their goddess away from a group of venomous snakes. What a great achievement!
"Fred, can you tell her that you were just demonstrating?" Li Ye clapped his hands symbolically, and then pulled Fred to stop talking.
"This is so disrespectful to a lady. You warned me before, have you forgotten?" Fred shook his head and looked embarrassed.
Li let go of Fred dejectedly, with rows of "what ifs" running through his mind.
So, why did he wait?
