[HP]Helen Pan

The music of the dance seemed to have been changed again, and the orange lights looked a little funny on the elves who were playing the instruments in a serious manner.

I stood in a corner with a glass of juice wine in a daze, and from time to time I glanced furtively at the brightly dressed girls not far away.Draco left after dancing with me. He said that he needed to socialize with his father, and I'd better talk to those noble ladies.According to him, socializing is the most important thing in the life of aristocrats.But in fact, I have nothing in common with the ladies of the wizard and noble families.

Just as he withdrew his peeping gaze, he suddenly felt a flash of bright yellow in the corner of his eye. Such a color seemed a bit dazzling under the strong light.I blinked my eyes before I got used to the color. I looked in that direction and saw a girl in a bright yellow long gauze dress. I remember seeing her a few times, and she seemed to be a student of Hogwarts. I remember seeing her chatting with Draco a few times, but I couldn't quite pronounce her name.

"Miss Pan."

The brown-haired girl in a bright yellow dress smiled at me. With such a gentle tone and such a soft smile, it is easy to get closer to others.So I subconsciously smiled at her too, "Hello."

Maybe because she saw that I was unnatural, she smiled and said, "My name is Astoria Greengrass." Her brown eyes narrowed slightly, giving off a cute and clever look. It made me feel good about her again.

"Orlov!" Astoria's eyes fell on my neck, and her staring eyes were bright with surprise and excitement.She moved her hand, but soon realized that it was inappropriate to do so, so she put it down resentfully, she smiled at me and winked, and said in a low voice with a little regret, "I'm so sorry, I'm so excited I have long heard that the Pan family has collected such a rare diamond, and I have always wanted to take a look...so I saw it today, so..." At this point, she looked at me and smiled shyly, Head down, a little shy.

"No, it doesn't matter." I can understand Astoria's eyes shining with excitement just now, even though she wears many jewels that are also priceless in my opinion.

You know, it is always easy for women to become greedy when it comes to jewelry.

"Astoria." The few noble girls I just peeked at walked over, and the one in the lead looked somewhat similar to Astoria.

"My sister, Daphne." She reminded me intimately beside me.

In the following time, I got my wish and joined the ranks of ladies talking.

It turns out that I have always thought that women's topics are very single, nothing more than men, fashion and jewelry.But unfortunately, I don't know many aristocrats, so when they are discussing the gifts they received on a date with great interest, I can't intervene, because I feel that if I say that I have received the most white eyes It's embarrassing; when they talk about this season's trends, all I can say is that I don't know much about vintage trends.And when they start putting brands that sound like luxury, I'm even more speechless.

Of course, I also know some luxury goods, but the bad thing is that they are talking about wizard luxury goods.So, whenever they asked for my opinion, I could only haw and haw and wonder if I could convince my grandfather to spend some money in those stores and get a membership so that those wizard brands You can send the quarterly new catalog to my home.

Although I have been trying my best to smile and agree with everyone, I know very well that they probably all branded me-a dull, dull country bumpkin.

As we talked, the meaningful eyes when they looked at me became more naked/naked and presumptuous. I think maybe they originally planned to embarrass me like this, but they looked at me and tried to help me out The Astoria again seemed to me unintentional.I began to feel that I am really stupid standing here now, but I can't leave willfully, because if I leave now, then I will get another adjective and become a - dull, dull , A country bumpkin without a tutor.

At this time, my eyes began to look around anxiously, hoping that someone could say hello to me, so that I could leave these girls naturally.

I began to silently hope that Draco would come back soon.When he just left, he said that he would come back to me in a while, but now I feel as if several moments have passed.

"Helen!"

I heard someone calling me, and when I followed the voice, I suddenly felt that my hair was covered with hairs for a moment.Standing by the floor-to-ceiling windows and smiling at me quietly was my uncle, Alec.

For a split second, I wish I was back home in the city by now, and cranked up the living room stereo to blast heavy metal rock so I couldn't hear anything else.But the reality is always contrary to the ideal, so when Alec waved to me, I still had to say hello to him, because he was an uncle.

"How was school?" he asked me.The moonlight outside the window fell on his body through the bright floor-to-ceiling glass, and the golden hair looked softer, glowing like a dream.The blue eyes look like mechanical gems, but when he looks at me with such eyes, it makes my brain dizzy like lack of oxygen.There was a moment when I felt like I was being stared at by a snake.

"Yes, of course." Suddenly, he felt that the surrounding temperature seemed to drop a lot.I lowered my head and didn't want to meet Alec's eyes. At this moment, I suddenly began to regret, and even began to wish to go back to those young ladies and be a country bumpkin.

"So, how was the book I showed you last time?" Alec nodded slightly, then his eyes flickered and he changed the subject, naturally bringing the topic to the direction I was extremely resistant to.

I glanced up at Alec, then looked down quickly, "Uncle Alec, I think..." Just as I was about to tell Alec that I had no intention of learning the Dark Arts, I was told interrupted.

"Helen, I have been looking for you for a long time, so you are here." It was grandfather's voice.Before I could turn my head, my grandfather's thick palm had already been placed on my head, and he rubbed my hair. The kind of loving strength made people feel reassured for no reason, "Honey, I am happy today. It may not be very comfortable, I think we have to go back sooner." He looked down at me with a little regret in his eyes, "I hope this doesn't disappoint you too much."

"Of course not!" I almost jumped up, full of joy.

"Alec." There was the usual kindness in his grandfather's voice. "Why don't you go and see there! I see all your friends are there."

"Father." Alec's body moved, and there seemed to be some reluctance on his face.He squinted at his grandfather but hesitated to speak, and finally turned and left, the soles of his shoes knocking loudly on the reflective tiles.But before he left, he glanced at me, and that kind of eyes made me feel the dry and cold touch like the essence clearly.

"Helen?" Grandpa smiled at me again, "Shall we go back?"

"Wait a little longer, okay?" I said to my grandfather, then quickly turned around and walked towards the depths of the crowd.

As much as I do want to go home with my grandfather, I have to say goodbye to Draco first.I carefully walked around the nobles talking and laughing with wine glasses, looking for Draco's figure, but the spinning crowd and the blurred lights easily blocked my sight.On the terrace, Lucius was chatting and laughing with a short middle-aged man, but Draco was not by his side.Just when he was hesitating whether to continue searching, the dance music suddenly became cheerful with a tone, and the dance steps on the soles of the people spinning on the dance floor also became brisk.A pearly black on the dance floor flashed in my peripheral vision, and when I looked carefully, I found that Draco was dancing with a lady, and the girl in a bright yellow dress was Astoria.

At that moment, I suddenly felt that such a dance party was boring. I stood there staring at the tip of my shoe and silently waited for the end of the song.

After the song ended, I went up to Draco who was about to walk out of the dance floor. At that time, he tilted his head and said something to Astoria. He didn't realize my existence until I stood in front of him. .

"Draco." I smiled at him and Astoria, staring at him unconsciously holding her hand a moment ago, "Grandpa, he's not feeling well, I have to go back."

"...Yes, is it?" Draco was surprised for a moment, he blinked, took my hand and walked a few steps, "So early? This is just the beginning." He lowered his sound.

"Indeed." I glanced at Astoria not far away, then turned and left.

In the past few days of Christmas, it has been snowing heavily in London. From upstairs, the whole world is a vast expanse of whiteness.Mom and Aunt Kate have been preparing for a long time for the party of my classmate Michael and me. There is always the smell of milk from baking pastries in the house, which makes the whole room warm and sleepy.

One early morning, when I was still in a dark dream, Michael's noisy voice rang in my ears, "Hey! Lazy, get up, get up."

I rolled over and tried to bury my head in the fluffy pillow when suddenly I felt a bone-chilling chill down my spine.The sudden cold made people shiver involuntarily, then opened their eyes angrily, and pulled Michael's cold hand out of the quilt.

"Wow!" Seeing me sitting up quickly, Michael immediately cleverly hid behind the mother who had just entered the room, "Ms. Victoria, your slob daughter is angry, that's terrible!"

"Okay, Helen." Mom gave me a sideways look, and suddenly reached out to point to the clock on the wall, "Quickly check what time it is! When are you going to pick up your friend, that Harry Potter?" Saying that, my mother entered the room and opened the curtains in the room, "I can't wait to see him, God knows how cute he was when he was young."

"Cuter than me? Dear Ms. Victoria, you've made me jealous." Michael pouted at the door, speaking sourly.

"! My dear sweetheart Michael, you know, you are my aunt's sweetheart." As she said that, my mother stretched out her hand and pinched his cheek. The affectionate and loving look made me feel that he was her son.

After breakfast, before the snow stopped, Michael and I went to Diagon Alley to pick up two of his friends—Luna and a Ravenclaw boy I didn’t know very well. Michael said his name was Jack on the line, he is also a Muggle wizard.

When Harry was seen again in Grimmauld Place, he looked even paler and haggard.When he came to answer the door, I was so startled that I even thought I had encountered a ghost.Hermione, Ron, and Ginny quickly followed. They smiled at me, but they all looked forced. www. paipai. fm

"! We can go, everyone is here." Hermione glanced at Michael next to me, then hurriedly put on her coat and went out, "Mr. Weasley was attacked at the Ministry of Magic, and everyone is worried about him So it looks a bit haggard." Hermione explained to me as she walked, "Harry found it in a dream, you know, that kind of ominous dream..." She lowered her voice and added in my ear .
