FanFic Enthusiast I am soooo sorry it took so long! I've been so busy with school work but now I will be able to post more often. My flight was great! I thank you so much for your patience and comments, but now I give you, Chapter 12:
Days and nights went by since Mia's and Harry's brakeup, filled with misery. Sometimes Mia cought Harry looking at her but then he quickly turned away and pretended to be absorbed in conversation with whoever was next to him or absorbed in a book. As every new day came and went, Mia knew that it was getting closer to Harry's kidnapping and death.
People have finally gotten used to Mia's 'smiling and crying' at the same time and stopped pointing and whispering behind her back. Ashley and Pansy kept on trying to get it out of her but everytime 'Mia' came up with new excuses to tell them and they finaly decided to 'drop it' as 'Mia' said.
One day, everyone was to wake up to find notices on the common rooms notice boards, sighn's that there was to be a Hogsmade visit that weekend. Everyone was very ecxited to buy there gowns for the end-of-the-year Yule ball. Ashley herd Mia sing once and went straight to Professor Mcgonagall, who was in charge of the ball, and told her how nice she sings and imediatly Mia oppionted the job to sing. Since 'Mia' did not one to sing at all, Ashley convinced her to sing at least one nice song.
On saturday, the day of the Hogsmade visit, Pansy woke up her and Ashley and within one hour they were making there way down to the village. The three werte chatting very happily about which girls got asked already to the ball and who they wish would ask them. 'Mia' didn't say much as usual. her crying stopped and instead she would cry only at nights. She heard Hermione Granger and Ginny Weasley talking to each other in the hall one day on the way to the great hall for lunch and coulden't resist listening to their conversation. The few words she managed to hear was that Harry didn't have a date to the ball yet and he better make a move on. Her spirits lifted a little and since then she only cried at nights and very rarely during the day.
"Mia, What do you think, should we go to 'clothes for every occasion' or 'Dress clothes for you'?"
"Um, I don't really care. I just have to do the shopping fast because I have someting planned for today." The two girls gave her questioning looks but 'Mia' just waved them off. "Nothing special," 'she' said. So the girls decided to go to 'Dress clothes for you'. They entered the shop to find it filled with hogwarts girls alsow bying gowns for the ball. Ms. Pesteny was busy helping the shoppers with the fitting of the gowns, so the girls decided to look at the gowns untill she was free. 'Mia' moved the rack around and saw gowns in all diffrent colors, in all diffrent styles and meterials, one navy one a little lighter, one pink, one red, one green amd many more.
"What do you think of this?" Asked Ashley, holding up a green sleeveless silky gown that fell down to the floor and had a very low neck.
"Its beautiful, it even matches your eyes!" Pansy exclaimed.
"Mia, what do you think?"
"It's very pretty. Go try it on."
