Harry Potter and the Disasters Of Love

Hermione's POV:

Quiet turned into silence, as Ron, and his anger and hurt drifted away. Everyone stared at each other in shock, Ron, Lavender, not together... It just didn't seem right, or acceptable. And for him to leave it the day before Valentine's Day too... Honestly, I know I tell him to do his homework, but he needs to get his priorities straight!

For the rest of dinner we all sat wordlessly thinking about things that were on our own minds, even One Direction who didn't know Ron or Lavender that well yet.

We all noticed a flicker of movement from the front of the Hall and we all glanced up. Once again Dumbledore had joined us for a meal, twice in one day so far, highly unusual for a man who ate all his meals in his study.

"Ahem," He said, whilst McGonagall hurriedly tapped her glass with a piece of cutlery, trying to get everyone's attention, "I have an announcement to make. After alot of consideration me and the rest of the staff have decided to give you a little treat due to the fact it is nearly half term, and it is Valentine's Day tomorrow... We thought maybe a Valentine's Day Dance should be in order," He said with a soft chuckle to himself.

All the boys groaned, all the girls squeaked with excitement. Me? I wasn't sure what I was feeling. I was excited because I appreciated the time off, and I loved dressing up and making myself look nice, but on the other hand who would I go with? No-one would want to go with the geek from Gryffindor.

"And boys you will have to be traditional, and ask the young lady that you wish to attend the ball with to the dance... And make sure it is in advance, I know what you are like, leaving it to the last minute," He continued, pointedly looking at Harry, who blushed, while the rest of the males in the Great Hall either groaned more, or starting looking round, eyeing girls that were candidates for them to take to the dance, "Boys use that courage that is inside every one of your hearts. The dance will be held this Saturday night, the day after Valentine's Day, at 7pm, so be hasty and don't mess about boys, or the best girls will have flown off like a butterfly to a different type of flower. That is all, get back to class,"

Everyone got to their feet, girls chatting about what they would wear, and boys giving girls calculating glances.

All the One Direction boys sighed, "Well, I imagine lots of girls'll want to go with us guys...." Liam said, and I nodded, looking at all the girls staring at them, then giggling when they even moved their heads a quarter of an inch....

Draco's POV:

Well, I thought it was bad before the dance, when it was just Valentine's Day, but oh no Pansy has just gotten worse. She is talking really loudly with Kate, our fellow friend in Slytherin, about what she is going to wear for the dance... If 'someone' was going to ask her... Pffttt! How pathetic! Poor Kate can't get a word in edge ways, and she's normally louder than Pansy.

I walked into Divination with Kate, Pansy and Blaise. There was a mixture of different houses in this class, so instinctively I hated this one the most. Who wants to be around Hufflepuffs anyway?

I sat down at a table with Blaise, making sure there wasn't enough seats for both Pansy and Kate, so I could at least try to clear my head. They sat down just a table in front of us as the rest of the class filed in, including Cho Chang, Ernie Macmillan, Hannah Abbot, Harry Potter, Ron Weasley, Hermione Granger, Liam Payne and Zayn Malik.

Kate's head swiftly turned as she took in the One Direction boys, and at the same time Zayn turned to survey the classroom. Their eyes locked. Zayn walked across the classroom to a table next to me and Blaise, subsequently walking directly past Kate. He bent over and whispered in her ear, "I've always liked naughty girls," winked, and continued on his way.

Kate blushed. Pansy glared enviously.

I don't understand, one second she wants to be with me, and the next she is jealous because another girl is getting more attention than her.

But I do understand why Zayn thinks Slytherin pupils are naughty, we have always had a bad reputation. But I am going to try and renew that reputation, tomorrow, when I tell the person I love... That I do in fact love her.

Harry's POV:

The One Direction boys are such a laugh! I understand why loads of girls fantasise over them, I'll have to give their music a try too.

All of us lads sat down for dinner that evening in The Great Hall.

"So what are your relationship statuses then?" I queried them all.

"Single and ready to mingle," Harry said, that cheeky grin plastered on his face.

"At this particular moment single, but I hope to not be for much longer," replied Zayn, who had just joined us.

"Single," answered Niall, "But I have an eye on a girl I think could be my princess," He blushed as the rest of the boys offered their congratulations.

"You see, Niall has never had a girlfriend since before we have been in a group together!" explained Louis who then told me that he had just recently broken up with his girlfriend, but thinks he has an eye on another girl, like Niall.

"I do have a girlfriend," said Liam, who told me that him and Danielle had been going out for nearly a year, but he would probably ask a girl to go to the dance as friends.

"So, who is everyone taking to the dance?" said Ron, who you could tell didn't want the question to be directed back at him, but he wanted to try and make conversation to take his mind off things.

Niall and Louis then said they would try and get their princesses, Liam and Harry said they weren't sure and Zayn surprised us all by telling us he already had a date, Kate, from Slytherin, who was in Divination with me, Ron and Liam.

We all wished each other luck and went our separate ways after finishing our meal, wondering what tomorrow would bring, Valentine's Day.
