Snow covered Hogwarts.Decorations sparkled.Students whispered excitedly in corridors.
The Yule Ball was approaching.
And one thing became painfully clear:
Every girl in the entire Tri-Wizard Tournament wanted Roy Valvas as their date. Roy's Daily Life: 200 Invitations, Zero Acceptance
Every morning, he opened his dorm door…
And a literal avalanche of letters fell out.
Hufflepuff boys sighed.Slytherin girls plotted.Beauxbatons girls screamed.Durmstrang girls elbowed each other.
Daphne, Hermione, Cassandra, Cho, Astoria, Fleur, and Gabrielle watched Roy calmly incinerate all invitations with a lazy wave of his hand.
Roy:"Not interested."
Hufflepuffs:"BRO CAN YOU AT LEAST PRETEND TO STRUGGLE?!""We haven't even gotten a SINGLE invitation—""—and you're burning 50 a day!"
Beauxbatons girls (dramatically crying):"HE HAS REJECTED US AGAIN—AHHHH!!"
Durmstrang girls (slamming fists into walls):"WHY IS HE SO BEAUTIFUL AND UNAVAILABLE?!"
Even Professors shook their heads.
McGonagall:"At this point he needs a secretary."
Flitwick:"He has more invitations than the entire school combined!"
Snape:"Tch. Annoying."
The Real Scene: His Girls Ask Him
One evening in the Common Area, Daphne smirked.
"So. Are you going alone?"
Roy raised a brow."No. I'm dancing."
Hermione stepped forward shyly."Then… may we have the first few dances?"
Cassandra added, twirling her hair."I want the waltz."
Cho Chang softly:"Save me the second slow song?"
Astoria (jumping excitedly):"I want the cute dance!"
Fleur, beautiful as moonlight, smiled:"Roy, you must dance with me. Gabriel too."
Gabrielle (with sparkly eyes):"Oui! Me too!"
Roy nodded calmly.
"Alright. I'll dance with all of you."
Every girl:
"KYAAAAAAAAAA!!!"
Even the castle shook.
Grayfia Lucifuge Enters
Grayfia, elegant and icy, suddenly appeared behind Roy.
"Roy… might I have a dance as well?"
Roy smirked."Oh? Asking me directly? How bold of you, Grayfia."
Grayfia froze—then—
Blushed crimson.
Students watching:"GRAYFIA LUCIFUGE BLUSHED?! NO WAY—""HOLY MERLIN—THE WORLD IS ENDING!"
Roy:"Fine. I'll save you a dance too."
Grayfia looked away.
"…I would appreciate that."
Roy:"You should smile more. You'll look cute."
Her face turned even redder, and she disappeared in teleport magic.
Students:"She ran away? SHE RAN AWAY???""ROY VALVAS IS TOO DANGEROUS!""He can make demons blush!"
Meanwhile — RON WEASLEY'S MISERY
Ron had a goal:
Get a Yule Ball date.
But fate had other plans.
Ron approached girl after girl…
"Hey, wanna go with me?""No, thanks."
"Are you free for the ball?""Not with you."
"How about we—""No."
Harry tried not to laugh.Even Neville pitied him.
But then…
Ron Went Insane With Confidence
Ron:"I'm going big. Fleur Delacour!"
Harry:"Ron, don't—"
Ron marched toward Fleur.
"Fleur! Go to the ball with me?"
Fleur looked at him…
And said coldly:
"Non."
Ron tried again.
Then—
Ron Tried Asking GRAYFIA
The whole Great Hall went silent.
Ron gulped.
"Grayfia… want to go to the Yule Ball with—"
Grayfia didn't even look at him.
"Declined."
Cold enough to freeze a dragon.
Students erupted in laughter.
"RON ASKED GRAYFIA??""HE'S INSANE!""She said no without blinking!""Even looking at her directly is dangerous!"
Ron turned purple.
Fred & George from across the hall:
"WOMAN, WOMAN, WOMAN—""ZERO SUCCESS! HE SCORES NOTHING!""RONALD WEASLEY — KING OF REJECTIONS!"
Ron became the school's comedy show.
And what about Grayfia?
Many brave (or stupid) students tried to ask her too.
Each time—
Grayfia:"No."
Grayfia:"Not interested."
Grayfia:"I decline."
Grayfia:"No."
Her cold beauty only made her more desirable…
But they didn't know she had already asked her chosen partner.
Roy Valvas.
