The eleven girls sat around Roy's bed, eyes sparkling with anticipation.Some sat on chairs, some on the floor, some right beside him on the mattress.The room felt warm—expectant—like the air itself was waiting.
Hermione spoke first.
Hermione:"Roy… could you play something… romantic?"
Daphne smirked softly.
Daphne:"Something that comes from your heart."
Grayfia sat closest, arms crossed but eyes gentle.
Grayfia:"We want a song meant for us.Not the whole school."
Roy looked at their hopeful faces.
He took a slow breath.
Then summoned the keytar again—golden magic shimmering off its edges.
Roy (thinking):Alright. A song fitting for many hearts… something simple but warm.Something from my old world they've never heard before…
He placed his fingers on the keys.
And began to play.
Roy Plays: "Baby" — Justin Bieber (Romantic Ballad Version)
But Roy didn't perform the upbeat version—he slowed it down, turned it into a soft, tender ballad.
The notes came out gentle, soothing—almost glowing with emotion.
When he sang:
♪ "You know you love me…I know you care…" ♪
every girl froze.
They had NEVER heard a song with this kind of rhythm, tone, or feeling before.
A Muggle tune from Roy's past world…but here, it sounded magical.
Emotional Reactions Hermione Granger
Her breath caught.Her cheeks turned a deep rose.
Hermione (thinking):How does he make even simple words sound… intimate?Why is my heart beating this fast?
A small smile tugged at her lips.She hugged her knees, trying to hide her flustered face.
Daphne Greengrass
Daphne stared at him with widening Slytherin-blue eyes.
Daphne:"So unfair… even his voice is perfect…"
Her cool, controlled façade cracked for the first time.She looked genuinely soft.
Astoria Greengrass
Astoria's hands trembled.This was the first time she'd ever heard a romantic song live.
Astoria:"It feels like… butterflies…"
She had sparkles in her eyes the whole time.
Cassandra Vole
Cassandra leaned back, breathless.
Cassandra:"Roy Valvas, you are too dangerous…"
But her lips curved in a dreamy smile.
Cho Chang
Cho's eyes grew misty.
Cho:"This song… it's like a confession…"
Her heartbeat was so loud she felt the others could hear it.
Luna Lovegood
Luna swayed side to side, enchanted.
Luna:"This song reminds me of falling stars and warm tea."
She looked at Roy like he was a celestial being.
Ginny Weasley
Ginny clutched her chest.
Ginny:"Why does this sound like he's singing directly to me?"
She quickly looked away to hide her blush.
Fleur Delacour
Fleur froze.
A Veela—enchanted by someone else's charm.
Fleur:"Mon dieu… his voice…it bypasses even Veela magic…"
She stared at him like she was seeing royalty.
Gabrielle Delacour
Gabrielle teared up.
Gabrielle:"It's so sweet… like warm chocolate…"
She hugged Astoria tightly.
Grayfia Lucifuge
Grayfia did not blush.
She deeply flushed.
Her silver eyes locked onto Roy like she couldn't look away.
Grayfia (thinking):This boy… no, this man…He doesn't even realize how irresistible he is…
When Roy sang:
♪ "And I'll be there…" ♪
Grayfia's heart skipped.
She bit her lip—not in embarrassment, but because she was losing control.
Clara Valvas (Grandmother)
Clara had been expecting to simply supervise.
Instead, she gasped softly.
Clara:"This child… where did he learn such a romantic style?"
Her heart softened with pride.
The Last Line… and Silence
When Roy sang the last soft verse:
♪ "Baby, baby, baby… oh…" ♪
The room fell into complete, stunned silence.
The magic faded.
The golden glow dimmed.
The keytar disappeared.
But the atmosphere stayed warm—like the song still lingered in their hearts.
Roy blinked awkwardly.
Roy:"…Did I overdo it?"
Every girl at once:"YES!"
Hermione was wiping her eyes.Daphne was touching her flushed cheeks.Grayfia turned away, hiding her expression.Fleur was clutching her heart dramatically.
Cho:"Roy… that wasn't just romantic."
Hermione:"That was… beautiful."
Daphne:"That was unfair."
Grayfia:"That was too alluring."
Fleur:"That was a love spell."
Roy panicked.
Roy:"It wasn't a spell!"
Luna (dreamily):"It felt like one."
