372. Dance partner

In the little club, Ron nudged Harry and motioned for him to speak.

Harry was a little embarrassed, but seeing that there weren't many people here, he mustered up the courage to say, "Field, do you know anything about the Christmas Ball?"

After the last stroke, Field looked up at Harry and said, "Yes, Professor Sprout told us last night. ”

Just last night, when Field and Cedric were in the Hufflepuff Common Room discussing the 'Animagus Second Form', Professor Sprout came to the Hufflepuff Common Room and told everyone about the Christmas Ball.

According to Professor Sprout, the Ballam has always been a traditional part of the Triwizard Tournament and an opportunity for Hogwarts students to interact with the young wizards of Beauxbatons and Durmstrang Academies.

Theoretically, the prom is only open to students from the fourth grade and above (I think it's because students at this age are already developing well and are no longer considered little kids.) Of course, you can also invite junior students to be dance partners. As for whether she wanted to participate, Professor Sprout said casually, and she had no intention of participating in it herself. But she told Cedric that as a warrior, he had to attend, and that he had to bring a dance partner, because the ball was traditionally held by the warrior and their dance partner.

Well, Cedric must have no problem with this, although he is a little silent, but the opposite sex has always been very good, and the love letters received every year have always been counted by stacks. Field, on the other hand, didn't know whether to attend or not, he didn't have much interest in the ball, and he still had a scruple about Rolf's feelings, his best friend was actually a bit of an 'invisible' at Hogwarts, and the low-key and somewhat excessive Rolf seemed to have few friends at Hogwarts, and even fewer of them were women. If Rolf didn't want to go to the ball, Field wouldn't have been.

—————————————————————————————————————

Harry blushed for a while, looking a little like an innocent boy, and said, "Field, what do you say I should do? ”

The phrase, 'You've got experience—' made Field smile bitterly. Indeed, of the group, Field is the 'most experienced', after all, he and Parvati Pettier played a couple for half a year last year, and he receives no less love letters every year.

But, Field, I want to say, but he doesn't actually have the experience of 'inviting girls', and he has always been the object of 'invitation'. But he couldn't say that to Harry.

Field cleared his throat and said, "Harry, to be honest, it's not difficult for you to invite a girl to be your dance partner, after all, you are also a celebrity at Hogwarts, and you also defeated the Hungarian Tree Bee in the match you just completed, now you are very marketable in the Hogwarts girl community, I think even if you don't invite them, they will invite you, now all you have to do is think about who you want to go to the ball with the most, and then hurry up to invite her before you are surrounded by girls." ”

Hearing Field say this, Harry nodded his head as if he had suddenly opened his mind, and then a look of longing appeared on his face.

On the couch next to the coffee table, Ginny looked at Harry expectantly, a little excited, and then saw that Harry seemed to be in a reverie, and the expression on her face darkened.

Field glanced at Harry, then shook his head, he suddenly realized that he seemed to have said the wrong thing, and he remembered that Harry seemed to have invited Zhang Qiu before the ball, and then he was rejected. And now that he said this, wasn't he putting an obstacle between Cedric and Zhang Qiu, if Harry listened to him and immediately went to Zhang Qiu, I don't know what the situation would be?

Well, Field actually had a vague anticipation.

"Okay, Harry's problem is solved, Ron, you have to hurry, this kind of thing is like eating a buffet, you have to be quick and slow. Field said to Ron, who was encouraging Harry to find a dance partner tomorrow morning.

Ron didn't care too much about Field's reminder, he was thinking more about his terrible gown, he didn't want to be embarrassed by it, and he would even not go to the ball if he could.

Soon he didn't think so, though, as Field took out a gown and gave it to Ron.

"My mother originally prepared it for me, but a few months ago my cousin custom-made two sets for me and Cedric from the United States, so I don't need them now, so I'll give you a Christmas present. Field retrieved the robe and handed it to Ron.

Ron was not polite, happily opened it and tried it, and it turned out to be a perfect fit. Originally, he and Field were about the same height, (Ron was a little taller, but he was on the thin side.) Plus this dress is robe-style, so Ron has no problem wearing it.

After delivering the things, Field looked at Rolf, who was putting the materials into the cauldron, and asked casually, "Rolf, are you going to the ball?"

After Rolf finished processing the materials in his hand, he raised his head, looked at the coffee table, and asked Luna, who was holding a copy of "Singing and Singing", "Luna, are you going home on Christmas Day?"

Luna looked up and looked at Rolf with wide eyes, "Are you going to invite me to the ball?"

Everyone looked at Rolf in disbelief.

Rolf's face blushed slightly, and he said, "Yes, if you don't go back for Christmas, I want to invite you." ”

Luna put down the book and slowly showed a big smile on her face, "I'm not going back this Christmas, but I don't really like dancing." ”

With a smile on his face, Rolf said, "It's okay, we'll go sit together when the time comes, and I don't like to dance." ”

——————————————————————————

Well, everyone present was a little dumbfounded, but they didn't expect that they had just learned the news of the Santa Ball, and now there was a pair that had been speed-dated successfully, and they were still two people in the small club that everyone didn't expect.

Now that Rolf already has a dance partner for the Santa Ball, it is only natural that Field will have to find a dance partner, even if he is not interested in the ball in the first place.

While Harry was struggling with what to think about Zhang Qiu's invitation, Field already had a goal, and that was naturally her friend Hermione Granger. Field remembers Hermione as Klum's dance partner in the movie, but now he doesn't think it's Krum's turn.

Field was prepared to find an opportunity to talk to Hermione, and he turned down several girls' offers, including Beauxbatons' Warriors representative, Helen Hathaway.

A week later, in the library, Field shook his head irritably and strode in.

He was looking for Hermione's figure, and he was always afraid that Hermione would be embarrassed, so Field had been waiting for the time when the two of them were alone, but he waited and waited, and after waiting for a week, he still didn't wait for the opportunity. Yes, I haven't been to the little club at all.

Today Field finally couldn't take it anymore, he hated the feeling of 'hide and seek'. So he asked Lavender Brown about Hermione's presence in the library, and went straight for it.

After a round of searching, Field finally found Hermione, who was with Ginny at this time.

"Hey, Hermione, hey, Ginny—" he greeted and stepped forward.

"Hey, Field!" Hermione and Ginny responded with a smile.

"Field, are you looking for books in the library?" asked Hermione, who rarely came to the library except when he was looking for materials.

"No, Hermione I'm coming for you, I want you to be my dance partner at the Santa Ball, okay?"

Both Hermione and Ginny looked at Field in surprise, and then didn't say anything for a long time.

"That, that, Field, I'd say—" Hermione struggled a little, "I can't actually promise you. ”

Hearing this, Field's heart went cold, and he had already guessed what was going on.

"Actually, I already promised someone else, not long ago. I'm sorry. Hermione whispered.

"It's okay-" Field said with a wry smile, he did it entirely on his own, and there was nothing wrong with calling Hermione to stop him and ask directly, but now it's okay, it's yellow.

Just as Field shook his head and smiled bitterly, a voice came from behind.

"Hey, Hermione, hey, Ginny—oh, Field, you're there too. It was Neville who spoke, his hands clasped tightly together, looking nervous.

"Hello, Neville—" Everyone greeted Neville.

Neville smiled hard and said to Hermione, "Well, Hermione, I want to ask if you can be my Christmas dance partner?"

Neville breathed a sigh of relief when he said this, and his whole body relaxed.

Then it was Hermione's turn to get tangled, and she looked at Ginny beside her with a wry smile, and then at Field, who was standing on the side.

"I'm sorry, Neville, I've already promised somebody—" Hermione said.

"Oh-" Neville was stunned for a moment, then looked at Field with a smile and said, "Looks like I'm still a step behind you, Field." ”

Field and Neville have a good relationship, although the little fat man is a little confused, but he is really good, and the two exchange gifts every Christmas.

"Neville, Hermione's dance partner wasn't me, and I was just rejected. Field grimaced Hermione and Ginny's bitter faces.

"Ahh

Instead of feeling unduly disappointed, Neville said to Ginny, who was watching the excitement, "Okay, what about you, Ginny, do you have an appointment on Christmas night?"

Field, Hermione, and Ginny were all stunned for a moment.

"How can you still do this?" Field's heart was messy.

Ginny paused for a moment, then smiled charmingly and said, "Okay, that's it." ”

Neville was visibly distracted, then a little overwhelmed, and finally after making sure that Ginny had agreed, he left in a daze.

"Looks like I'm going to have to get a dress," Ginny muttered, suddenly looking up at Field, "How about you give me one as a Christmas present, and you saw you gave Ron one before." ”

Field's face turned a little red, then turned into a wry smile, he looked at Hermione, who was still embarrassed, and then at Ginny, who seemed to be snickering after a successful prank, spread his hands and said, "No problem, when the time comes, I will definitely turn you into the brightest princess at the ball, and hide everyone's light." ”

This night, Field handed over the size he had asked for from Ginny to Xiaoxi, and it was the first time since the beginning of this year that Field asked her to give something, but she was very excited.

As the days passed, many of the Hufflepuffs confirmed their dance partners.

Justin Finchrie invited Susan Bones, and Ernie didn't seem to have reconciled with Padma last time around, so he invited Hannah Abbott. Stabins invited Fawcett of Ravenclaw. (Fawcett is Ron, Luna, and Field's neighbor in the village of Otrie-St. Ketchpole in Devon.) ）

Field, who originally had girls invited every day, seemed to be forgotten, which made Field very distressed, to be honest, he didn't actually have much experience inviting girls, and now that many girls have been invited, the chance of him hitting a wall will be very high, which makes him even more entangled.

The semester was almost over, but the class was still going on, and that afternoon, after Potions class, Field hastily packed up the materials he hastily packed, and then prepared to rush to the auditorium for dinner with Rolf, who no longer seemed to be as hungry as he used to be, but seemed to have developed a habit of wanting to eat as soon as the meal arrived.

Rushing up the stairs, I had to stop when I entered the foyer, which was crowded with people, and everyone seemed to be looking inside.

"Jean-Jean-" Field thought about eating, and squeezed in as fast as he could.

But when he reached the entrance of the foyer, he stopped, because he saw an interesting scene.

Fleur Delacour was there talking to Cedric.

"Cedric—" Fleur called out to Cedric in French, "why can't you come with me to the ball? ”

Fleur's words were reasonable, and Field nodded silently as he listened. If you want to be serious, Fleur is right, and now in the entire Hogwarts castle, if you want to choose the most suitable wizards and wizards, these two must be the case.

But not everything is as people want, for example, Cedric is very entangled now.

"Fleur, I've already said it, I already have a dance partner, you have to find someone else. ”

Fleur didn't seem to care about Cedric's words at all, and said to herself: "You can push her away, no matter who she is, in terms of beauty, she will definitely not be able to compare to me, as long as you go to the ball with me, I can promise to date you later." I know you have a crush on me. ”

"What a confident Fleur!" said Field, and quietly prepared to walk through the auditorium.

Cedric frowned, and was thinking about how to refuse, when suddenly a voice came from behind Fleur: "Can I invite you?—— invite you to the ball with me - Miss Delacour!".

Everyone around looked over in unison, looking at Fluff Ron, who spoke.

Field had already walked through the doors of the auditorium and stopped with an eerie look on his face when he heard Ron's voice.

Fleur turned around expressionlessly, looked at Ron silently with a scrutinizing face. Ron, who had just mustered up his courage, was panicked by the sight, and then his mind went blank.

Looking at Ron's performance, Fleur let out a soft snort with a hint of disdain. Originally, she heard that someone invited her, but she was still looking forward to it before turning around, and she could still send an invitation to herself in front of herself and Cedric, and the person who wanted to speak must be very confident. But when she turned around to see Ron's expression, her anticipation turned to disdain. This guy is a fool who has been stunned by himself.
