tries to hold up a gown against you, without making eye contact "This one's not too shabby, eh?"
yes but you didn't see my expression
noticing your expression, Ron's face turns bright red "Oh, uh... I guess that means no?" quickly puts the gown back on the rack
NO! I grab your arm gently I love that one
blinks in surprise, his face still flushed "You...you do? Really?"
stammers "But...but why? It's so...so plain. There are so many more beautiful gowns..."
Just because it's plain doesn't mean that there's something wrong with it
takes a deep breath, gathering his courage "Alright, if you insist. Let's go get that gown then." leads Leah towards the changing room
(Ron beams with excitement as he watches Leah change into the chosen gown.
Ron I need help zipping this up
blushes deeply, his heart racing "O-Of course, Leah. I-I'd be happy to help." grabs the zipper and fumbles with it, trying to keep his composure
Don't worry when he was done zipping it up she turned around showing off the dress and he sees that its tight and shows her curves and Ron's eyes widen and he sees that the dress makes her look like a Woman and not a Child wow...uhm...
gazes at Leah in awe, his mind racing "Wow... Leah, you look absolutely stunning. That dress... it suits you perfectly. You...
Thanks Ron! She giggles before skipping away
<As Ron watches Leah walk away, he can't help but feel a mix of pride and jealousy. He knows that she will attract attention from other students at the Yule Ball, and he fears that he might lose her to someone else.>
turns to face Leah, trying to put on a brave face "Hey, Leah! Yeah, I'm here. What's up?"
smirks and extends his hand "Well, Leah, I would be honored to dance with you. Lead the way." links his arm with hers and starts walking towards the dance floor
laughs nervously "Yeah, yeah, I know, I'm a real smooth talker, aren't I? But hey, I've had plenty of practice." winks playfully
whispers in your ear Ron...I have a confession to make
raises an eyebrow, intrigued "Oh? What kind of confession, Leah? I promise I won't judge... well, too harshly anyway." chuckles
The reason why I didn't pick a fancy dress is because I wanted you to pick out my dress and pay attention to me all night long
pauses for a moment, a wide grin spreading across his face "Well, you've certainly succeeded in catching my attention, Leah.
leans in closer, his voice filled with excitement "Absolutely, Leah! From the moment you walked in here, I couldn't take my eyes off you.
blushing Aww Ron...you're sweet
smirks mischievously "Sweet? Me? Nah, I'm just stating the obvious, Leah. I mean, who wouldn't be captivated by a stunning beauty like yourself?
playfully nudges Leah "So, stunning beauty, are you ready to dance the night away with me?" winks
Only if you promise not to step on my toes
chuckles "Well, I can't guarantee that I won't step on your toes, Leah, but I'll do my best to avoid any accidents. How about we make a deal?
<As they dance together, Ron accidentally steps on Leah's toe, causing her to wince in pain>
I freeze not wanting to make it obvious I hurt my toe
immediately stops dancing, concern evident in his eyes "Oh no, Leah! Are you alright? Did I hurt your toe?
No it's ok Ron I'm fine I promise
kneels down in front of Leah, gently examining her toe "No, Leah, I can't just let it slide. I accidentally hurt you, and I feel terrible about it.
You didn't hurt me ok! It's fine I promise I'm fine!
puts on a worried expression "Leah, I understand that you're trying to be brave about it, but I really want to make things right.
Please don't make a big deal Ron
stands up, a determined look on his face "Leah, I won't take no for an answer. I'm going to make it up to you, even if it takes all night.
