[HP] This Evil

The first game of the "Triwizard Tournament" kicked off quickly, and the four contestants were arranged in a tent to prepare before the game, and then played in turn.The task of this game is to snatch the golden egg from the dragon's nest. Krum temporarily blinded the dragon with the "eye sickness spell", and quickly got the golden egg with his hands and feet.Delacour put the dragon to sleep and did the job with ease.Digory diverted the dragon's attention by turning a stone into a dog, and his plan was equally successful.In comparison, Harry's process of taking the golden egg is very difficult.He summoned fire, and rode on a broom to constantly challenge the dragon guarding the golden eggs, hoping to make it look away from the nest of dragon eggs. The dragon's nose kept spouting fire, and Harry's arm was injured. But he succeeded in the end.

The audience cheered. Erin Wilson, a new reporter from the Daily Prophet, sat in the front row of the stands, closely watching the game, and recorded the press release with an automatic quill.

"Where's Rita Skeeter? I heard that she took a long vacation." Daphne approached Catherine and asked, "Don't tell me you don't know what's going on."

"Her, she won't be able to appear in front of us for at least three years." Catherine showed a smug and evil smile, "Her hair has fallen out, and now she can't leave the house."

"What? What did you do?" Daphne cried out, and unconsciously reached out to stroke her hair.

"It's just a small spell." Catherine smiled, and then said with pretended regret, "This spell has no solution, so Skeeter can only wait for the hair to grow naturally."

"You are so vicious." Daphne sighed, "Where did you learn such an evil spell?"

"It's a secret." Catherine played tricks.

This is indeed a secret. That day she left a copy of "The Encyclopedia of Spells of the Eighteenth Century" without authorization, and told Moody that she had never done anything she shouldn't have done, and then turned around and taught herself the "Hair Loss Curse". And used this spell on Rita Skeeter.She figured Skeeter wouldn't tell the others about his hair loss, so she wasn't afraid that Moody would find out she'd read the book to page thirteen.

Catherine felt refreshed after getting revenge on Rita Skeeter, and even more energetic when listening to Professor McGonagall.But today, Professor McGonagall did not talk about transfiguration, but called the students into a large classroom without tables and chairs.

"Hogwarts will hold a Christmas party this Christmas, and we will be dancing the waltz. I hope you can learn it as soon as possible." Professor McGonagall said to the Gryffindor students, and then she turned to the Slytherins , "Entrusted by Professor Snape, your waltz will also be taught by me. Now, listen to the music first."

Daphne laughed "puchi" and whispered, "Can you imagine Professor Snape waltzing?" Catherine and Pansy also laughed.Professor McGonagall paid no attention to them, busy with Ron as her partner, showing the students how to waltz.Half the Slytherin students don't pay attention to their lessons because they have been waltzed by their tutors since they were 12 years old.Catherine also learned for a while, but she was not very good at dancing, but Daphne and Pansy promised to give her private tutoring. "You've got to dance well, or you'll lose all Slytherin's face," Pansy said.

Pansy and Daphne are experts in waltzing. Catherine is already dancing well, but they still sigh and shake their heads, showing a look of "you are hopeless", and continue to increase the intensity of training .Fortunately, Catherine is used to playing Quidditch and her physical strength is very good, otherwise she really couldn't help them toss.

Since knowing about the Christmas party, the most common discussion among girls is dresses and dancing partners.Daphne wondered whether to dance with a Durmstrang student or a sixth-year Slytherin, and Catherine, Pansy, and Millicent were eager to give her advice.Pansy said that she should get to know more friends from foreign schools, Catherine thought that the sixth-grade Slytherin looked better at dancing, and Millicent hoped that the person who invited her was not Hufflepuff.

Catherine was not at all embarrassed about the dance partner at the Christmas party. When Draco revealed the news of the "Triwizard Tournament" to her during the summer vacation, he made it clear: Catherine Ferrara, at this year's Christmas party you can only Dance with me, or I'll tell Professor Sinisella about your copying of Nott's astronomy homework.

Tsk, unreasonable.

Catherine's dress was ready during the summer vacation, and she changed the style of the dress four times, keeping Julie the house elf very busy.So during this period of time, the most she has done is to reject party invitations from various boys.The Slytherin students were okay, it seemed that they had already accepted Draco as her dance partner, so few people bothered her.But the students of Durmstrang and Beauxbatons obviously don't know the news yet, so people will often gather around the door of the classroom where Catherine is studying, trying to invite "Miss Ferrara" to be their dance partner, and then they are undoubtedly dead. Failed.

There were tiny snowflakes in the sky on the night of the Christmas dinner, but this did not stop the girls from wearing dresses enthusiastically.Catherine put on the dark green backless dress with suspenders, sat in front of the mirror for another two hours, put on a fair amount of makeup, and helped Daphne choose a wrist flower.She thought that she and Daphne had dawdled enough, but when she turned her head, she realized that Pansy was still struggling with the color of lipstick. They continued to dawdle for more than half an hour before finally walking to the auditorium.

Draco was wearing a black tuxedo, restrained his usual hippie smile, and stood straight at the door of the auditorium. A few girls from Beauxbatons gathered together and whispered his name, and then they all stopped suddenly and looked at him together. To the entrance of the auditorium.Carrying her long green dress, Catherine carefully walked down the last few stairs, gave Draco a rare ladylike smile, then took his outstretched arm, and walked into the auditorium together.

"I guess we have to admit that Malfoy and Ferrara make a great match, don't they?" Lee Jordan of Gryffindor said to his female companion. "Two vipers make a perfect match."

The opening dance was, of course, done by the four contestants of The Contest, and Harry was so clumsy that Catherine couldn't help but pity the girl he was partnering with.After the song ended, the rest of the students led their partners onto the dance floor.

Catherine held one hand in Draco's hand and the other on his shoulder, and they slowly spun around the center of the dance floor, stepping up and down with regularity.This is their first dance, but they fit together very well, as if they have danced this dance a thousand times, ten thousand times.Bach's "Minuet" was flowing slowly in the center of the dance floor. Draco supported Catherine's waist and stepped up to the right, followed by sliding with his left foot. "You are my Persephone (Note ①)." He said softly, his voice was a little low, like a heavy sigh from a cello. (Note ②)

"Then I must have eaten the whole pomegranate (Note ①)." Catherine stared at Draco's gray-blue eyes, followed his dance steps obediently, with a vague smile on her lips .Her right hand and Draco's left hand were clasped tightly with five fingers intertwined, palm to palm, the temperature was dry and hot.

The last note of the organ fell, and there were fewer people in the middle of the dance floor. Catherine dragged Draco to the long communal table to find a drink.

"Lend Catherine to me for a few minutes." Daphne came over, and his dance partner Jamie Howard was waiting for her not far away.Draco tactfully took a glass of low-alcohol wine to chat with Howard.

"Dancing really well." Daphne said, "I bet Draco will be so fascinated by you today."

"Don't talk about me, how about your Durmstrang male companion, huh? I think he looks like a gentleman." Catherine smiled with her eyes bent.

"It's not bad, the dance is good, but there are too few words, only 'um' and 'oh'." Daphne picked a glass of grapefruit juice to drink.

"He dared not speak to you, and I dare say it took all his courage to ask you to dance."

"I just thought he danced well enough to talk to him - the rest of them danced so badly, did you see Mary Johnson in Ravenclaw? She kept stepping The boyfriend’s feet, and her skirt, I can’t believe it’s a skirt, it’s just a pocket made of sheets.” Daphne purposely raised her voice in the second half of the sentence, because Mary just happened to be on the long table To get a drink, she doesn't know how to wear high heels yet, so she walks crookedly.

Catherine glanced at Mary's skirt and thought it was a little funny, but she held back, "Why do you always have trouble with Johnson?"

"I just don't like her. She is the daughter of a maid, but she pretends to be a noble lady. Besides, she is a bitch wizard." Daphne said, "Poverty can't be covered up. Now Ravenclaw believes she is numbered."

Catherine smiled indifferently, not caring about the gossip about Mary Johnson.

It was already late at night, and the organist played a new piece. Everyone felt a little tired and sat scattered around the round table outside the dance floor to rest. Only a few couples were still shaking their bodies to the music.

Draco took Catherine's hand and walked in the school corridor. He was a little drunk, his cheeks were slightly flushed, but he still maintained his demeanor, walking on the lady's left.The corridor was quiet, the moonlight shone through the glass windows on the ground, and the sound of the organ from the auditorium could be faintly heard.

"Is it cold?" Draco asked suddenly, breaking the silence of the corridor, and before he heard the answer, he took off his coat and put it on Catherine. His body temperature remained on the coat, warm, and on the collar There is also a nice cologne smell.

"You have a really nice dress today," Draco continued, and he leaned Catherine against a wall, forming a small circle with his hands on her shoulders.

"I've been picking out this dress for a long time." Catherine said with a little pride, she raised her head slightly and looked into Draco's eyes, which were so beautiful that she could never get enough of them.Draco looked into her eyes as well, and he saw Catherine's golden brown eyes full of his shadow.Then he slowly and piously placed a very light kiss on Catherine's forehead, like a butterfly landing on a flower petal, being careful not to cause even a little damage to the delicate petals.Catherine's mind went blank, she only felt that her nose was full of Draco's breath, even if I went to hell, I would follow him, she thought.

Note ①: Persephone, the wife of Pluto.Persephone was the daughter of Demeter, the goddess of grain, who was snatched away by King Hades and forced to marry her as his queen.Zeus ordered Hades to send Persephone back, but Persephone ate three pomegranate seeds before leaving the underworld, so he must stay in the underworld for a quarter of the year.In this article, Catherine said that she is willing to eat all the pomegranates, which means she is willing to stay with Draco forever.

This chapter "You Are My Persephone" comes from what Lord Fallon said to Lucy in the British drama "The Fame".

Note ②: "heavy sigh" comes from Du Niang.
