[HP] Riddle's Spirit Behind

To Eleanor's disappointment, Tom doesn't seem to be planning on going to the ball.

"I have other things to do. Going to the ball is a waste of time," he said dryly, not even taking his eyes off the book in front of him.

"Well, I'll go by myself," said Eleanor angrily.

Tom suddenly closed the book, and he looked up at Eleanor thoughtfully, "No, you shouldn't go either. I suddenly had an idea that you should do that with me tonight."

"What are you going to do?" Eleanor asked in surprise.

"I'll let you know when the time comes," said Tom curtly. "We'll meet here at 08:30 in the evening."

"I didn't say I was going," said Eleanor, a little unhappy. "Why are you always like this—you never listen to my advice. It never occurred to you that maybe I would rather go to the ball." ?”

Tom raised his eyebrows slightly, with a faint smile on his face, "Really? You want to go to the dance more?"

Eleanor crossed her arms, "Yes."

Tom's smile softened a little.He stood up from the chair, and whispered in Eleanor's ear, "08:30, don't forget. I'll be waiting for you."

After he finished speaking, he turned and left.

"I'm not going. I'm going to the ball," thought Eleanor stubbornly.

But all afternoon she was distracted, wondering what Tom was up to that night.

After dinner, some students began to move to the underground classroom.

"Welcome! Children, welcome!" Professor Turner of the Muggle Studies class stood at the door and greeted the students with a smile. He placed a jar with a pink bow in front of him, "Girls, don't forget Put your names in this jar!"

"Good evening, Professor Turner." Eleanor greeted her with a smile, "Uh...you look very handsome today."

Professor Turner tugged at his golden bow tie, coughed lightly, and said with a smile: "Oh, thank you, Eleanor. Now, write your name on this card and put it in this jar. All alone All the girls who come to the party do it."

After entering the basement classroom, Eleanor couldn't help being taken aback, thinking for a moment that she had entered Madame Puddife's teahouse.

The basement classroom is filled with flowers, mistletoe hangs near the ceiling, hundreds of pink candles float and golden cupids flap their wings.On closer inspection, those cupids are actually fairies with golden skin.

"They really put in a lot of effort." Eleanor heard a voice behind her say.

She turned and exclaimed in surprise, "Wow! Bu, you look so—"

Abraxas wore a dark brown gown and a stylishly pleated shirt, and his hair was well done to make it look smooth and lustrous.

"You'll absolutely surprise the girls," Eleanor said.

"Thank you." Abraxas accepted Eleanor's compliment with a smile, "By the way, have you seen Avery?"

"Not yet," Eleanor replied.

Just then, Avery pushed his way through the crowd.He bent down and took a few breaths, then looked up at the two of them, "I can't believe that so many people came today. Don't they have anything else to do?"

"Yeah, there weren't so many people at the Halloween ball." Eleanor looked around and said.

"Shh." Abraxas suddenly made a silent gesture.

"Welcome everyone to this year's Jar Ball." Professor Turner said loudly, standing beside him was Professor Flower in a purple floor-length dress.

"Look, Professor Flower looks stunning." Eleanor whispered to Avery beside her.

"If she didn't leave us so much arithmetic and divination homework, I'd praise her too," Avery murmured.

Eleanor suddenly giggled.

"The Jar Ball is a traditional Hogwarts event, but unfortunately it was canceled 60 years ago." Professor Turner continued, "This year, after Teresa and I worked hard, the school finally agreed..."

Eleanor began to wander again.

Probably because too many people gathered in the room, she felt a little difficult to breathe, as if a stone was pressed against her chest.

"Are you okay?" Abraxas suddenly whispered.

Eleanor shook her head, "I'm just a little dizzy...I think I should be fine."

Professor Turner finally finished what he was going to say, and then asked all the boys to go to the jar in front of them and feel for a note.

A fourth-grade boy touched a note with a girl's name written on it.Then, at the urging of Professor Turner, he walked up to the girl and bent awkwardly to invite her to dance.

"Great, now we have our first couple." Professor Turner said with a smile, "Next one, hurry up."

"Go, Avery, go draw a card." Abraxas urged Avery.

Reluctantly, Avery is pushed next to the jar and draws a card.

"Clauris, Cloris Parkinson." He frowned and read the name above.

Eleanor, who was leaning against the wall drinking lemonade, watched in amazement as Avery walked up to Cloris.Cloris looked Avery critically up and down, then held out his invitation like a queen.

"I didn't expect the two of them to be a good couple." Abraxas walked to Eleanor and said with a smile.

"Yes." Eleanor said.

She watched as Avery stood next to Cloures with an uncomfortable expression on his face, looking extremely nervous.Cloris was a little taller than him, and impatience was written all over her face.

"Maybe the two of them can really be together." Abraxas said half-jokingly, "Besides, the Parkinson family and him can be regarded as a good match."

"Maybe." Eleanor said lightly, and at the same time thought to herself, the premise is that Cloris really doesn't like Mr. Martin anymore.

Abraxas turned his head and stared at Eleanor's face for a few seconds, then suddenly smiled and said, "I think I have to draw a card too. Maybe I can draw a beautiful girl, what do you think?"

He strode up to the jar, reached out and pulled out a card.He whispered the name on it, "Eleanor Alford."

Eleanor's eyes widened in surprise.

Abraxas walked up to her and said with a smile: "Sometimes such a coincidence happens." After he finished speaking, he bent slightly and stretched out his right hand, and said politely: "May I ask you to dance? Miss Alford?"

Eleanor put her hand in his, imitating his tone and said solemnly: "Yes, Mr. Malfoy."

Soon the first dance music begins to play.

This is a light and traditional dance music, and Eleanor likes this style very much.While dancing with Abraxas, she couldn't help looking over his shoulder in Avery's direction curiously.

Avery was not as good at dancing as Abraxas, and he accidentally stepped on Cloris's skirt several times.

Cloris' face was livid, his lips were drawn into a thin line, and he looked like he was about to explode soon.

Eleanor couldn't help laughing quietly.

"What are you laughing at?" Abraxas asked curiously.

"Look back at Avery and the others." Eleanor whispered, "Clauris looks like he wants to eat people."

Abraxas put his arms around Eleanor's waist, and then skillfully made a spinning motion.

"Don't look at them, we're dancing now," he whispered, laughing.

Eleanor stuck out her tongue, "Okay."

She looked into the eyes of Abraxas, and suddenly said: "By the way, where is your fiancée?"

"She's dancing with someone else," Abraxas answered succinctly.He stared at Eleanor intently, and said after a moment of silence: "I saw you and Tom that day."

"What did you see?" Eleanor suddenly felt her heart skip a beat.

"I saw you two kissing," Abraxas said. "How long have you been together?"

Eleanor's cheeks became hot immediately, "Okay... Now that you saw it. We started with Christmas."

Abraxas said "Oh", and he was silent for a moment, "But Tom didn't come today."

"He has other things to do," said Eleanor.

Abraxas still stared at Eleanor, "Do you like him, Eleanor?"

Eleanor opened her mouth, her face felt hot.She is not used to admitting that she likes a boy in front of others.

Abraxas sighed suddenly, "The answer is obvious."

They continued dancing in silence.When the song was about to end, Abraxas suddenly said: "If—I mean, if one day, that guy Tom hurts you, you have to remember that you still have us. We will definitely take care of you Teach him a lesson."

Eleanor laughed at once, and she said sincerely, "Thank you, really. But I think—"

At this time, she suddenly felt that the scene in front of her eyes became a little blurred.She felt dizzy for a while, and her body shook suddenly.

Abraxas was startled, and quickly supported her.

"Are you all right, Eleanor?"

"I think I'm fine. But I need to get some air," she whispered.

With the support of Abraxas, she walked out of the classroom, leaned against the wall and took a deep breath.

The dizziness came and went quickly, and she soon felt less uncomfortable.

"I feel better," Eleanor said.

"But your expression doesn't look like 'much better' now." Abraxas looked at her worriedly.

"I'm really fine." Eleanor said with a smile, "Go back quickly, or your fiancée will be kidnapped."

"She will take care of herself. But you, are you sure you don't need me to accompany you back to rest?" Abraxas said.

"Yes, it's not that I don't know the way back to the dormitory." Eleanor teased.

Finally, at Eleanor's insistence, Abraxas had to go back to the ball by himself.

Eleanor returned to the common room alone.

She yawned and planned to go back to her bedroom to sleep.

She had just walked to the door of the girls' dormitory when she was suddenly hugged from behind.

"Ah!" she screamed in horror.

"Hush, don't be afraid, it's me," Tom whispered in her ear.He kissed her earlobe, "Where did you go, you came back so late?"

She glanced at the wall clock in the corner, it was a quarter past eight in the evening.

"I'm not late." She muttered disapprovingly.

"I've been waiting for you here for a long time." He whispered, then turned her body around and kissed her on the lips, "Let's go."

She sighed, "Tom, I will accompany you to what you want to do. But you have to promise me one thing first, that is, you will not scare me like you did just now, and next time you invite me to do something Before doing anything, ask for my opinion."

"It's two things," Tom sneered.

"Well, it's two things." Eleanor shrugged, "Do you agree?"

"Then you have to promise me something else in exchange," said Tom, smiling.

Eleanor looked at him warily, "What's the matter?"

Tom reached out and stroked her cheek gently, "You'll know." He grabbed Eleanor's arm with his other hand, "Come on, we're running out of time."
