HP meets at Hogwarts

"The Yule Ball is a traditional part of the Triwizard Tournament and is only open to students from Year [-]+, but students from Year [-]+ may invite a junior student if they wish. The Yule Ball requires the dresses mentioned in the Opening List robes," Professor Snape said with a straight face, in his usual icy tone, but he tolerantly ignored the loud and excited students in the common room as he spoke, "the dance will be held in the Great Hall at eight o'clock on Christmas night. Held, ends at twelve midnight."

As soon as Professor Snape left, the excited and noisy voices became unscrupulous.

After listening to it, Ann went back to the dormitory with Fanny. After all, Ann already had a candidate for a dance partner, and Fanny knew that there would be a dance in the Triwizard Tournament when the school started, so Fanny was not surprised.

The next day was Tuesday, but the atmosphere in the school could be said to be extremely lively. Last night, the deans of each school announced the news of the dance, which directly caused students above the fourth grade to be concerned about everything about the dance. □□Everything was chattering non-stop. Of course, the students in the fourth grade and below were also very enthusiastic. They either actively or passively hoped to participate in this dance.

After the Triwizard Tournament had been suspended for so long, it started again at Hogwarts. In addition to the closed study at Hogwarts, large-scale entertainment activities were extremely rare. This dance became the top priority of all the students for a while.

Ann bit the bread and yawned and came out of Slytherin's girls' dormitory with Fanny. To be honest, she didn't sleep well last night, because Pansy, Miris and Talia almost discussed who they were going to invite for half the night. , and it was accompanied by giggles. Of course, Pansy had stated from the very beginning that she wanted to invite Malfoy, but this did not prevent her from discussing the handsome guys from other colleges in the slightest.

"Their enthusiasm for this dance is really high..." Ann said vaguely while biting a piece of bread.

"Hey! Of course, Ann, this is the Triwizard Tournament dance, and it is most likely the only dance we have had in our seven years at Hogwarts. Although I have attended many dances, this I'm really interested in the next ball... I don't know how the professors will use magic to decorate the castle..."

"If they hadn't made a lot of noise last night because of discussing this ball, I think I would cast a silent spell on them. Speaking of which, Professor Dumbledore has ordered the Weird Sisters to accompany the Christmas ball for this ball."

"Really? That very famous music group on WWN (Wizard Radio Network)? Ann, why are you so sure?"

"Because of a small mistake that happened during the summer vacation, the Weird Sisters received a few songs written by me. They wrote me back with an owl the other day. They liked the songs and learned that I was studying at Hogwarts. , they want to take advantage of this invitation to play those songs at the ball. But I declined..."

"What? Why did you refuse?" Fanny became excited. "These are the Weird Sisters...Many wizards like them very much..."

Because I wrote the score and lyrics of those songs based on the songs in my memory, and they are not original at all. The original creator Taylor is still a child according to his age. Oh, I don’t know if there is Taylor in the United States in the wizarding world. What about this person.

"Because... All in all, it's a rejection. If I become famous at the dance, I can't stand it." Ann waved her hand.

"Ann, sometimes it's really hard to guess what you're thinking..." Fanny said with a little regret.

Ann shrugged, "Sometimes I don't know what I'm thinking... Well, it's not time to discuss philosophical issues, hurry to the History of Magic classroom and find a better place to catch up on sleep..."

But Ann and Fanny's journey to the History of Magic classroom was not smooth. As soon as they reached the first floor of the castle, a fourth-year Ravenclaw boy ran up to Fanny with a flushed face and invited Fanny and He went to the ball together, which Fanny declined politely and with a smile.

After the boys had left, Ann teased Fanny, "Fanny, I think what Pansy said last night was right." Listen, Fanny, you're going to be in no trouble, every house must have Someone who wants to invite you.'”

Fanny shot Ann an annoyed look, but then she was relieved immediately, and she shot back with a smile, "Ann, who received more than a dozen cards at the Valentine's Day card send event held by Lockhart, I think it is also applicable." Is it because of this sentence?"

Not long after Fanny had finished speaking, a Hufflepuff fifth-year boy rushed out from a corner of the corridor, nearly knocking them both over. He had come to invite Ann to the Yule Ball, and Ann was very polite. And politely declined.

After the boy regretfully walked to the place where his friends gathered, Fanny covered her mouth and started giggling.

Ann said in surrender, "Okay, don't make fun of each other, let's go quickly, or we will be really late..."

But in the end the two arrived at the classroom by stepping on the bell. Along the way, Fanny met four people who invited her to the ball, and Ann met two.

Sitting down in the last row of the classroom, An waited to catch her breath, took out the history of magic, said something to Fanny, and fell asleep with her chin propped up.

Ann didn't notice that Hermione, who was sitting in the front row of the classroom, looked back at her, but Fanny noticed, but Hermione was very fast, she just took a look and then looked away.

It feels like something is going to happen.thought Fanny, with a twitch of a smile on her lips.

The bell rang for the end of get out of class, and Fanny closed her notebook and pushed Ann's arm.

"What time is it?" Ann asked sleepily.

"History of Magic get out of class is over, it's time for lunch!" Fanny deliberately emphasized the word "eating".

Opening his eyes, An looked around the classroom first, and there were Slytherin or Gryffindor students standing up and walking out of the classroom.

Stretching, Ann put the books in her bag, stood up, and walked out of the classroom with Fanny.

"There is no class in the afternoon. After lunch, I will go to the library with you, Fanny?"

"Aren't you going to the greenhouse this afternoon?"

"No need, those newly planted magic plants grow very stably, so you can ignore them for a while, and I still have some questions. I want to go to the library to check the books, and write my ancient magic text homework by the way."

Ann and Fanny talked and went to the restaurant, but after going downstairs, Fanny was blocked by a sixth-year Slytherin boy. He wanted to invite Fanny to the Christmas ball, and Fanny was still as polite as she was in the morning. Refused.

"The boy just now is not bad, and he is a senior in our college. I have met him a few times in the common room. He seems to be a pretty good person. Why don't you think about it?" Watching the boy go away, Ann asked curiously.

"It's pretty handsome, but actually I want to go to the dance with students from Beauxbatons or Durmstrang..." Fanny said seriously.

"Aha, let me guess. I think you want to talk to them about their schools? Especially the Durmstrang school?" Ann looked as if I had seen through her.

Fanny nodded with a smile, "I've always been curious, there's nothing I can do~ Besides, isn't the Christmas ball just for exchanging the friendship between the three schools?"

"That's right, if I have the opportunity, I would also like to learn more about the education system and policies in other parts of Europe. You know, most of the time the things in the book can only be used as a reference..."

The two of them reached the entrance of the restaurant while talking, but at the entrance of the restaurant, the two of them had to stop again.

A fourth-year boy with a familiar Ravenclaw face stopped Ann, but the other party blushed and did not speak for a while. Ann glanced at the other party and took a step to the left, intending to pass through, but the boy and Ann took a step almost at the same time , stopped Ann, and the atmosphere was awkward at lunch time when there were people coming and going.

Ann gave Fanny a helpless look. Fanny suppressed a smile and expressed with her eyes that Ann should solve it by herself.

"Hello, what's the matter? If it's okay, I'm going to eat in the restaurant." An said politely and distantly, looking at the boy who was as tall as her.

"Yes, yes..." The boy nodded hurriedly, as if he was afraid that An would walk away in a second, but after he uttered two words, he fell silent again. In the cold weather, cold sweat broke out on his forehead .

Some of the people around who stopped to watch the excitement laughed out loud.

This undoubtedly made the boy even more nervous, his face flushed like a boiled prawn.

"if..."

Seeing this scene, An opened his mouth and planned to make a quick decision. After finishing speaking, he had accepted the invitation of others and rejected the other party.But as soon as she said two words, the boy spoke.

"I think... I think..." The boy blushed and didn't dare to look directly into Ann's eyes, but when he looked away, he saw the people around him, and he didn't know what to say for a while up.

God, you interrupted me, you should hurry up and say it, no matter the meal time is here, there are still people watching, if you don't see your familiar face, you should have attended class together, I would have entered the restaurant long ago.

"I think..." The boy took a deep breath, as if he had made up his mind, but the laughter of the people around him started to grow louder, and the boy panicked for a while, "I want to borrow the notes from the Transfiguration class from you." ..."

Finally, I said that I must remain calm, politely refuse, and must make it clear that I have accepted the invitation.But wait, what did he just say?Notes from Transfiguration class?

Ann's face darkened all of a sudden, while Fanny froze in place with an incredulous expression.

And the boy seemed to realize what he said in a panic just now, with a regretful and terrified expression.

"I'm sorry, I don't want to borrow it!!" An said coldly, without even looking at the boy, she walked into the restaurant.Fanny followed behind Ann, her expression changed from unbelievable to holding her mouth to hold back a smile.

But not everyone was holding back their laughter like Fanny, Malfoy and Pansy almost laughed all the way from the restaurant door to the long Slytherin table.

Standing on the edge of the long table, Malfoy even patted the table, "Hahaha, this is so funny, Stoker, someone hesitated at the entrance of the restaurant for a long time to borrow notes from your Transfiguration class! Hahaha, this is definitely the funniest joke I've heard this year, oh no, since first grade..."

"Hahaha, Draco is right. To be honest, that boy seems to be a Ravenclaw student who took Transfiguration class with us. What does he think?"

Hmph, laughing, laughing, choking you to death while drinking soup, and that familiar boy, curse you for not being able to find a dance partner. ． ．With a cold face, An cursed silently in her heart.

After thinking about it, Ann felt aggrieved for a moment, so she looked at Fanny, but she found that Fanny was pursing her lips and trying to hold back a smile, but her eyes were already full of smiles.

With a snort, Ann turned her head back, picked up the knife and fork, and stared at the empty plate. Within two seconds, as if corresponding to Ann's mood, the long table was full of food.
