Yo dudes, lets do this! Chapter 14, bring it on! Super pumped with all the reviews guys make me feel appreciated!
Rose's POV
Is it sad that the only reasons I tolerate Mariah and Malfoy's little romance is because 1) I know they will get sick of each other soon enough so might as well just sit back and wait for them to break up and 2) they manage to keep each other busy enough to keep out of my hair? Actually, I should probably throw in a reason number 3: it keeps ditzy Josie out of Malfoy's grimy and manipulative hands. I don't care if they make each other happy, and it doesn't worry me that they might end up married or something because I know there is no way they could survive for that long together without driving each other nuts.
Mariah's POV
All these girls keep coming up to me and telling me how lucky I am to have Scorp as my boyfriend. Technically he hasn't asked me out, or even asked me to the ball yet, lazy ass! But that's beside the point. I don't see what they see in him. I mean, he's mildly babin' and I guess he is the most popular guy in the whole of Hogwarts, but I just don't get hugely excited by him. And I definitely don't get as excited as he gets about me! Speak of the devil….
"Mariah, hey, uh…" the dude is gasping for breath as if he'd just sprinted to my room up all those stairs from the Great Hall.
"Hey, what's up?"
"Do you have a date to the ball yet?" Scorp says and as I go to say "No" he interrupts me. "Good! Will you go with me?"
Narrowing my eyes at him I say, "Okay, but on one condition." Hey, he obviously wants to go with me pretty badly!
"Anythi-" he starts to say and then collects himself before continuing, "Why would I do what you want me to do? I have tons of girls begging me to go with them."
"Then go with one of them." I shrug and start walking away.
"Okay, okay just tell me what it is and I'll consider."
"Good," I smirk at him and say "You're smart aren't you? Do my divination assignment for me. I need to start getting a couple of A's or else Mum will make me go back to Australia, and you wouldn't want that would you?" Oh wow I am such a horrible person, taking advantage of his feelings for me!
"Wha- what?" His jaw drops to the ground. "I can't do that! If I get caught, they might suspend or expel me! Or at least take away my head boy position."
"Ok, I guess Mum will just have to send me home before the ball. Sorry, Scorp."
And then he says yes he'll do it for me. Haha! I'm so good at twisting men around my fingers.
Al's POV
"Hey, Al?"
"Yeah, Scorp?"
"Did your dad, or one of his friends maybe, ever – uhh- help out a friend by doing their work for them?"
"Nope, the would probably have gotten suspended or expelled."
"Oh, ok. Thanks."
And now he's sprinting away. Weird.
"Hey, Al?"
Sigh. "What?!"
"Oh, I was just going to ask if you had a date to the ball yet."
"BEX? Oh sorry I thought you were Scorp again… And no I haven't, why? Do you?" I grin at her. Maybe she's going to ask me to be her date! Though that would be rather odd as she is a girl and I'm a guy and guys usually ask girls not vice versa. But maybe this means she is really keen!
"Yeah, Jacob Drury from Gryffindor just asked me today. Pretty excited! I was worried no one would ask me."
I hope Bex doesn't notice how much my face dropped when she said that.
"Oh, I think it would be impossible for you to not find a date to the ball." Is that too forward?
"Aw, thanks Al! You're such a sweetie!" She says beaming.
I guess not…
Rose's POV
"Al is such a sweetie, Rose! He told me that it would be impossible for me to not find a date to the ball. What a lovely friend he is."
Bex says the stupidest things sometimes. I hope she didn't say that to Al, coz that is the ultimate in friend-zoning. So I guess now I have a date to the ball (YUM!), she has a date to the ball, Mariah and Scorp have a date to the ball and so does Al (finally!). Yeah, Uncle Harry found him a date, Susie Sherwinger from Hufflepuff! I don't know much about her myself, but she can't be all that great if her dad's friend had to find her a date. Then again, Al had to get his dad to find him a date and he's the best so she can't be too bad.
I am so excited to be going with Amos! He is just so amazingly handsome and I still can't believe he asked me to go with him! I think I might pass out with excitement!
I believe I have the dreamiest date in the whole of Hogwarts 3
