May i have this dance?
After I bowed the audience's cheers and applause more, soaking up every moment of my newfound fame and prestige. As the last the crowd cheers fell away and everyone went back to their own dinner and drinks, Hermione and Ron walked up to me once again.. "Congratulations Y/n " Hermione said with a sligh smile on her face "You look incredible" i looked at her.. i would prefer being with her, however i've got rejected.. "thank you, so you are!" i said as i bowed a little, as i looked like a real princess with the crown on my head and the champage glass filled with champage in my hand.
Hermione smiled and bowed in return, just then, Draco walked up to meand bowed elegantly "Lady y/l, would you like to shere a dance with me?" he asked as his voice dripping wiht chivalry.. Hermione rolled her eyes slightly at the sight, but she was glad that i appeared to be enjoying myself. She knew that i liked Draco's attention and felt like a princess as he led me back onto the dance floor.
"i would like to yes" i nodded as i put my hand in his "Enjoy the rest of your night Hermione" i smiled at her, Hermione smiled and nodded softly to me. "Have fun, y/n" she said before walking away but i sweard i hear her voice a litte lower like she were sad.. Draco and I began to dance again, i felt like a true princess yet again, the way he held me made me feel safe and protected, the way he looked at me made me feel beautiful.. but i couldn't help bit ask myself: what could have been?
i looked back at hermione who were sitting looking sad.. "Hey draco, how about you ask Pansy for a dance, it won't hurt" He was quite taken back by my comment, he looked a little confused for a moment not knowing wehther follow my advice or not. Finally, he nodded with a smirk "You're right" he said "Why don't I ask Pansy to dance next, im sure she would love it" he let out a low chuckle as he looked at me raised an eyebrow "go boy.." i smiled giving him a little wink and a push-
Draco's smirk grew as he turned around and walked towards Pansy, just as i predicted Pansy's face lit up she saw him walking towards her. Pansy was one of the most attractive and popular girls in my year, and she was hoping to dance with Draco.. of coure my number one was Hermione, and no one can change my mind.. As Draco approached her, Pansy smiled softly and waited him to ask her. Draco looked at her with a cocky smirk "Would you like to dance with me? he said, his voice dripping chivarly. Pansy's face turned bright red with excitment as she nodded her head
i smiled at them and nodded as i looked back to Hermione and took a deep breath and walked up the her "Hermione" i asked as i stood behind her, i was taller than her because of the heels. She turned around as she heard my voice. She looked like She wasn't expecting me to be behind her, so she tilted her head aside in confusion, in my opinion it was the most adorable thing she did in that moment, i felt melting on the spot and i jsut smiled at her softly "yes, y/n, what's up?" she said as she looked at my eyes..
i took a deep breath in as i looked at her as i spoke clearly " May i have this dance with you, my lady?" i asked as i held my hand out for her. Hermione looked at me with a suprised expression "what?" she asked, obviously confused about what i were asking "a-are you sure you want to dance with me? I dont want yout to regret it. After all, i know how much you like Draco, I don't wanto you to be disappointed or uncomfortable" She looked at me with a worried expresion, waiting for my answer. It was clear she wanted me to be happy, and she didn't wanted me to feel like i couldn't speak with her truthfully.
"We both want to dance with someone else in the moment, and i know i've been rejected by you once, however i'm pushing my luck" She looked at me for a long moment "All right. If this is what you truly what you want, i'll dance with you" she said, the corners of her mouth turned up slightly into a soft smile. She had to admit, She felt touched by my request. After all, she knew that the idea of dancing with someone you had been rejected by might not have been fun prospect, there i was, going out of my way to dance with her. it meant more than i could possiby know...-
