After returning to Hogwarts, Darren went to Hermione for the first time and invited her to be his dance partner at the Christmas ball, although a little shy, Hermione still happily agreed, and then put up Darren's dress, because Professor McGonagall said that the dance should wear a dress robe, Darren is an orphan from an ordinary background, no one will definitely prepare for him, looking at her serious appearance, Darren feels very happy.

Compared to Darren and Hermione's lightning speed at which they could find their dance partners, Harry and Ron were as sluggish as sloths, and they were timid and thin-skinned, "Why are they all moving in groups?" Harry asked Ron as a dozen or so girls walked by, looking at Darren and Harry, "How can you wait until they're alone and grab one of them and make a request?" ”

"Rope one on a noose?" Ron suggested, "Have you figured out who you're going to invite?" ”

Harry didn't answer, in fact, even if Harry didn't become a warrior at Hogwarts, with his identity as a savior, he could attract a lot of people's attention, just the next day, a third-year Hufflepuff House curly girl, Darren didn't even pay attention to her, only remembered that Harry didn't seem to have spoken to her before, but Harry was so surprised that he refused without even thinking about it, this stupid boy.

But compared to Harry, Darren's situation is even worse, because he can't tell everyone that he has found a dance partner, in Ron's words, "You're a warrior, you just defeated the Norwegian short-nosed dragon, I dare say they'll line up to dance with you", so, no matter where he is, Darren will always meet girls who come to invite him, hoping to be his dance partner, think about it, even if you don't think about the glory of being a warrior dance partner, just at the Christmas ball, becoming the center of attention is already a great temptation for girls.

Fortunately, because of the financial preparations, most of the time Darren is not in school, and those girls are left to Penelope to deal with, which makes her always complain, and even Hermione has a gloomy face all day long, as if she feels a lot of pressure.

Soon, in the last week of the semester, the school was bustling with activity and noise, and people were spreading rumors about the Santa Ball, and in order to avoid accidents, Penelope told Darren about them, but she didn't believe most of them, for example, Dumbledore bought eight hundred barrels of flavored mead from Rosmerta with three brooms.

However, Penelope said that it was possible that Dumbledore had booked the Weird Sisters, and that as a wizard who was slightly more senior than Darren, Penelope told him that the Weird Sisters were a very famous music group in the wizarding world.

"He's so bad," said Darren angrily when he returned to the Gryffindor common room that night, seeing Ron in the Gryffindor common room, "come and test us on the last day." Ruining the last bit of the semester with a lot of homework! ”

Darren knew what Ron meant, and Penelope told him that Snape had said that they would test their antidote in the last class of the semester, and that some teachers were much better than him, and that Professor Flitwick in Charms class, seeing that his classmates were distracted, simply stopped lecturing and let them play games in class.

"Hmm...... You're actually not working too hard, are you? Hermione looked at Ron from her Potions notes, who was busy building castles with his crackling and exploding cards, a much more interesting pastime than ordinary playing cards, and if he didn't get it right, he could explode at any moment, and Darren felt that wizards' ingenuity was used for such things.

"It's Christmas, Hermione," Harry said lazily, sitting in an armchair by the fire, reading Flying with the Artillery for the tenth time.

"Don't bother him, Hermione, he should rest." Ron said, placing the last two cards on top of the castle, and with a bang, the whole castle exploded, scorching his eyebrows.

"It's so pretty, Ron...... It goes well with your gown. ”

It was Fred and George, who sat down at Harry, Ron, and Hermione's table, and Ron touched his eyebrows to check the extent of his burns.

"I heard...... You guys haven't found a dance partner yet? ”

"Nope." Ron said.

"I said, man, you'd better speed up, or the good girl will be picked out." Fred said.

"And who are you going with?" Ron said.

"Angelina." Fred replied without thinking, not in the slightest bit embarrassed.

"What?" Ron asked, surprised, "You've already invited her?" ”

"That's a good question." Frey said. He turned his head and shouted to the other end of the common room, "Hey, Angelina! ”

Angelina is by the fire with Alya? Spinnett chatted, heard the shouting, and looked over to Fred.

"What's wrong?" She asked aloud.

"Would you like to come with me to the prom?"

Angelina looked at Fred with a measured eye.

"Okay." She said, then turned her face back to continue the conversation with Arya, with a faint smile on her face.

"It's done," Fred said to Harry and Ron, "a piece of cake." ”

After unexpectedly stuffing Harry and Ron with a handful of dog food, the twins left, and Ron stopped touching his eyebrows and looked at Harry through the ruined still-smoking card castle.

"It's time for us to act...... Invite someone! He's right, we don't want to end up dancing with a pair of ugly bastards. ”

Hearing Ron's words, Hermione became angry and stuttered a little.

"I'm sorry, a couple...... What the? ”

"Well—you know," said Ron, shrugging his shoulders, "I'd rather go alone—than find, for example, Eloise. Midgan. ”

"She's been getting better lately - she's actually pretty good!"

"Oh, I see," Hermione said, enraged, "so basically, you're trying to invite the prettiest girl who is willing to accept you, even if she's a complete villain?" ”

"Uh-yes, that's pretty much right." Ron said that Darren quickly shook his head behind him, indicating that he was different.

"Stupid boy! I'm going to sleep. Hermione said angrily, and walked up the stairs of the girls' dormitory, leaving Harry and Ron staring at each other, the two silly boys still not understanding what was going on.

Darren shook his head helplessly, and went back to the dormitory, he has also been tired enough recently, but he doesn't have much energy to take care of these idle things, and time is running out!
