It was the night of the Yule Ball. An event, every Hogwarts student looked forward to. The Ball took place at the Great Hall, which was decorated with snow falling from the enchanted ceiling, Christmas trees, and more winter decorations. Numerous students were already dancing, sitting by their tables, or talking to their friends.

Theodore, together with Mattheo, stood outside the Great Hall. Both were waiting for their dates, dressed in their best suits. After some encouragement from his friends, Theodore asked you to be his date to the Yule Ball. Now, he was looking at the stairs and waiting for you.

“Oh man, why are they taking so long...” Mattheo grumbles from beside him, toying with his bow tie, while also staring at the stairs and waiting for his date.
