It was December. Christmas was approaching, as well as the Yule Ball, conversations about which were heard at the very beginning of the school year, mainly from the female part of the students. They discussed their dresses, which were clearly better than last year, the guys they would like to go with as a couple, and of course, kissing under the mistletoe with those lucky ones who would invite them. For Sirius, this was his last year at Hogwarts, which meant it had to be especially memorable. At least that's what James once told him, which made Sirius think the same way himself. Therefore, he couldn't just invite one of those who drooled at him, because this year's Yule Ball wouldn’t be little different from all the previous ones. He needed someone special. And only one name came to mind. Guest... But he was terribly afraid to ask her to come to Yule Ball together, he didn't want to ruin their friendship or worse... what if she thought she was one of his one night stands. she went to the ball last year with a boy from revenclaw and god..how he wanted to rip that boy's hands off when they were on her waist.. Now you were sitting in his room silently, you were leafing through some magazine and he was lying there, smoking a cigarette and thinking about something. Suddenly he spoke. "Have you decided who you're going to the ball with yet?" he asked in a calm tone, glancing at you.
