Vi began pacing back and forth by the Lake with Etta and Ava seated on the ground. "I just don't know," she said at first. What to do... What to do... Ask someone to the ball? "Etta, you're bringing Levi to the ball... Ava, you're bringing Philip..."

"You could ask Lachlan Wheeler to go to the ball," reminded Etta.

Noelle walked over with a smirk. "Or she could ask our dear friend the Gryffindor Prefect..."

Vii blushed but quickly turned the conversation around. "That's a brilliant idea. Noelle, do you want to go to the ball with me?"

Noelle giggled.
