A/N – This is just an idea that suddenly popped into my head in the car and I had to write it… I won't update to it as much I don't think, but I might. I wrote this three times as fast as any of the other chapters to stories… so yeah… anyway, hope you like it! It's kind of quickly moved but it's just a little fun thing for me XD Review if you want!

Ginny sat quietly in the loud Great Hall, clad in dark emerald green dress robes that clashed perfectly with her hair, and a silver mask with small emerald stones encrusted around the edges, waiting desperately for the night to end.

Her best friend, Colin Creevey had practically forced her to come tonight, and now she was extremely bored. It had only just struck nine o'clock, and she was here until midnight, when she had to leave to finish a paper which was due the following day. Why had she agreed to this? I must be crazy, Ginny thought to herself, I should get my head examined.

Ginny was washed over with slight relieve when she spotted her friend approaching her.

"Hey Ginny, having a good time?" he asked cheerily.

"No," she said bluntly, "I'm bored as hell. Can I leave yet?"

"No no no, Gin! You have to start socializes, I swear, you'll be a hermit before you're twenty."

What was so good about a masquerade ball anyway? How would she be socializes anyway? Wasn't the point to not know who everyone was?

Ginny rolled her eyes, "I've been here two hours and still haven't socialized one little bit."

Colin shrugged, "Maybe you should ask someone to dance."

Ginny opened her mouth to retort, but Colin just waved and turned back to his dance partner.

The fast paced song that had been playing slowing faded off and a slower song came on. Ginny recognized it, and smiled a bit, having always liked this particular song.

She looked around the Great Hall, not noticing the tall boy in black dress robes standing before her, with a smirk on his face.

"Would you like to dance, m'lady?" he asked, holding out his hand and slightly bowing to her.

Ginny looked up at him, slightly surprised, and turned a light shade of pink, "Umm, sure," she said, taking his hand.

He led her to the center of the dance floor and he placed his hands comfortably on her hips. Slowly she slinked her arms around his neck and they began dancing gracefully to the music.

"What's your name?" he whispered in her ear. His voice was deep and masculine, somewhat husky.

Ginny giggled, "I can't tell you. If I did, there would be no point to this masquerade."

Her voice was sweet and soft, like music to his hears. He only grinned at this, "Tell me something about you."

"What do you want to know?" she questioned with a smile.

He thought for a second, and noticed that her hair smelled strongly of vanilla and apples, an odd, but sweet scented mix.

"How about… your favorite color."

"Hmmm," she said softly, "Purple. How about you?"

"Green," he said simply, "Favorite class?"

"Well, I would say Potions, but I hate Professor Snape," she said, "So, I'd have to say Herbology. I want to be a Healer."

"I see," he said, "A worthy goal."

The song ended and they slowly broke apart. He looked into her eyes, a dark brown and smiled. She looked into his blue eyes and blushed, then looked away.

"Want to dance again?"

"I don't know," she said hesitantly. The truth was, she did want to dance again. She enjoyed this boys company.

"Aww come on," he said, "I don't want to dance with my date again."

She laughed genuinely, "Alright."

The next dance was a tango, Ginny's favorite. They danced fast paced and swiftly, getting many long stares from their surrounders. They danced perfectly together; their bodies seemed to meld to each other perfectly.

They continued to dance with each other the next few dances, until, smiling brightly and breathing heavily, Ginny took a seat. The boy sat beside her, not letting go of her hand, "What a workout," she said with a large breath.

He smirked, "Want a drink?"

She nodded and he disappeared into the crowd, Colin soon replacing him, with a broad grin on his face.

"Found a Prince Charming, eh?"

"No," Ginny said, still breathing heavily, "He just offered to dance and –"

"For eleven dances?" Colin asked with an eyebrow raised.

Ginny blushed, "He was nice, so I… well I'm having fun."

"Well, I'll go then. See ya."

The boy she had been dancing with returned with two goblets of pumpkin juice. He handed her one and sat down.

They talked for a couple hours about anything from school to family to what was happening in the wizarding world. Ginny had found herself beginning to like this boy, and she didn't even know who it was. He was funny, nice, and from what she could see, handsome, but half of his face was covered with a mask.

At 11:30 he looked around, "Want to take a walk outside?"

They had danced a little more, talked, danced, and talked some more, and now, all worn out, he was ready to relax with this girl he had been around for the good part of the night.

"Sure," she smiled happily.

Once they were outside, he slipped his hand into hers. She blushed slightly but continued walking.

"So," he remarked, "It's almost midnight."

"Yes, so?"

"So, at midnight we take off our masks," he grinned, "and I finally get to see the beautiful face behind your mask."

Ginny giggled and blushed, "Maybe."

He just smirked, "Tonight was really nice."

"Yeah," she agreed, "It was a lot of fun."

They walked around the lake until it was nearly midnight before he stopped and looked at her.

"Are you ready?" he asked.

She laughed, "It's not midnight yet."

"So? Let's do it a little early. Won't hurt any," he smirked.

"Alright," she agreed, "You first."

He smirked and let go of her hand, reaching both of his slowly to his mask and lifting it over his head of shaggy platinum blond hair, revealing two large icy blue eyes and pale skin.

Ginny Weasley was standing before none other than the Draco Malfoy, Slytherin Prince.

The clock chimed midnight and Ginny was frantic. It couldn't be. She had spent the whole night with Malfoy? He had been so nice… She knew it couldn't be true.

"I-" she stuttered, "I have to go," she rushed out quickly and turned around, running as fast as she could toward the building.

"Wait-!" he called after her, but she was already gone.

Thanks for reading! Review if you want, hope you liked it!
