Amelia laughed again and walked over to a table, reaching behind her as she walked and grabbing Liam's hand. She slowly walked with him to a table (a far table, because she like holding Liam's han) and sat down. She leaned the chair back on two legs and smiled at Liam, who was sitting in front of her.
"Ok, so... what do you want to talk about?" she asked.

"Well, tell me abort yourself, your family. Whatever you want is fine with me. Just tell me you hate Snape as much as me, this way I can feel better about hating him," Liam said, not sure what more to say. He was rather interested in Amelia's opinion on things and in her also. He didn't get the chance to talk with people his own age, and especially someone as beautiful as Amelia.

Amelia smiled. Liam was a nice and wonderful person.
"Well, my mum is named Sherrie Richardson, my dad is Matt and my little brother is named Jason," she scowled, "The termite!" she mumbled, "Anyways... i live right next to Jordan!" she shrugged.
"She lives in a glass house!" she smiled, "And hates it!" she laughed. Amelia didn't know what else to say.
"I, uh... I hate Snape too!" she smiled rememebring potions that day, "And thank you for sticking up for me in Potions... and costing us points- PLUS detention... that must be torture!" she laughed.

"Well, just be glad you have a brother. It could be worse, and think about it, if you didn't have him, your life would be more boring," Liam replied.
"A glass house you say? That is odd. I have never heard of anybody living in a glass house," Liam said sounding interested.
"Yeah, don't worry about it. I have been in worse situations before. And besides, it's not like a didn't have a reason for doing what I did, now did I?" Liam replied with hate rising in him at thought of what Snape had done. "I have always been taught to stick up for others, no matter what, and my grandfather makes sure I do."

Amelia smiled.
"Yeah... well Jason can get- grrrr sometimes!" Amelia sighed. She knew life would be different without her little brother... but it would be easier if he wasn't so annoying.
"Yeah I love Jordan's house! it's so cool," she smiled, "It was still sweet of you to stick up for me," she sighed, feeling content. Another slow song started around the Great Hall. Amelia smiled at Liam.
"tell me anout your Grandpa," she said.

"I don't know what there is to tell. He's my grandfather, my fathers father. He has taken care of me since my parents died when i was a baby. He's a nice old man, very good at magic, but I guess he'd have to be to be an Auror. He travels a lot, so I am usually left at home alone with the house elves, or my aunts and uncles homes. He like to pull jokes, even at his old age, I guess that's where I get my since of humor," Liam said without taking a breath. "I love him, I just wish he wasn't so protective of me. I figure he doesn't want to lose me like he did my father. That's all I can think of anyway."

Amelia nodded. She loved her family too.
"My dad flies airplanes! And my mom quite singing to be a house mum..." she smiled, "Me and Jason are all they've got. Grandma and Grandpa died many years ago! both sets!" she laughed, "I never knew my dad's parents. My mum's parents died just after Jason was born. Jason is... four years younger than me! Mum is hoping his Hogwarts letter will come-" Amelia made a voice like her mothers" -Then we'll have all Gryffindors in the family!" Amelia made a face, "Yeah... all Gryffindors... she's forgetting Dad was a Ravenclaw!" she laughed.

"Airplanes? That is so awesome, they are one of my favorite muggle items, and they are so much fun. Yeah, I know what you mean about everybody in the same house. Me whole family, well everyone that can do magic, has been in Gryffindor. The only ones who can't, are the rare squibs," Liam said without a second thought.
"My moms parents died before I was born, but they were Gryffindors, and so was my fathers mom. She died a few years ago."

Amelia nodded, starting to feel slightly bored. She glanced at Liam and then at the dancers around them. It had gone from two fast songs and now a slow song again while her and Liam talked. She sighed, wanting to dance with Liam again. She glanced back at him again and then tilted her chair on two legs again.
"I'll be right back," she said, standing and getting another cup of juice. She then half ran, half walked back to her seat and sat down. Taking a long drink from her cup she set it down and smiled at Liam... again...

Liam noticed that Amelia was getting rather bored of talking. She had just left, and he was thinking about asking her to dance again. When she finally returned, Liam stood up and asked, "Would you like to dance? I know I would." Liam hand was outstrecthed, waiting for Amelia to take his hand and dance with him.

Amelia gladly took his hand and led him to the dance floor. She put her arms around his neck, and started to dance with him.
"I'm really glad to be at the ball with you." She said. A smile crept across her face and a blush arose in her cheeks. Her heart was starting to beat faster again because she was getting nervous.

"Yeah," Liam started, "I know what you mean. I fell the same way you do." By now, Liam was having a hard time hiding his fellings. His checks were beginning to turn a bright red and he was having a hard time speaking. His heart felt like it had grown twice in size and was beating ten times as fast as it normally did. He only hoped that Amelia wouldn't notice these changes in his personality. But, even if she did, he hoped that she understood.

Amelia blushed wildly now. She felt so flattered and yet... so comfortable around Liam. She always was. She could talk to him and be herself with Liam. He was sweat and knew exactly what to say to make her bite her lip and look down, feeling joyfull. She smiled at him and again laid her head on his shoulder.
True they had been dancing most the time but Amelia loved to dance, and true they weren't talking as much as flattering eachother. But she liked him. Telling her feelings to someone was never hard for Amelia, but she seldom ever did. She wasn't embarrassed it was more of, timing. This was the perfect time to tell Liam how she felt, and she did. But if they were in the hallway, that would be bad timing!
"Liam," she said barely a whisper in his ear, "Why do you like me?" she said it so softly and so full of emotion, she felt so small as she thought about it. Maybe he only liked her for her looks? Amelia never thought she was pretty, or even worth being someone's girlfriend before, but if she indeed was pretty... did Liam only like her because of it? Or was it something else? Maybe a bet? She felt a shiver run down her spine at the thought of Liam just asking her to the ball because of some bet... she sighed and waited for his answer.

As Liam was dancing with Amelia, many thought rushed through his head. He did his best to sort through them all, trying to find an answer why he liked her. He knew that somewhere in his brain there was an answer, he just couldn't find it. Slowly, he said, "I'm not sure really. There are so many reasons, saying one just doesn't seem right. I like you because your easy to talk to, you're bright and talented, you are funny, you except me despite my flawes, and because you are the most beautiful girl I have ever seen or will see."
Liam continued to dance for a few more moments before he spoke again. "Why exactly do you like me? I mean, I'm nobody special."

Amelia shook her head. She had many reasons of liking him too. She smiled slightly as she answered, her head still resting on his shoulder, "I like you because you are a intelligent and wonderful boy. I like you because you're sweet and you make me feel all special inside," She blushed.

Not quite knowing what to say, Liam continued to dance with Amelia. He was becoming more nervous every second that Amelia rested her head on his shoulder. He was trying not to step on any of her toes, when he finally said, "Well, I don't think I am all those things, but it is nice to hear that you think so. And, I'm sorry if I stepped on your toes, I am just really nervous."

Amelia laughed and then stood up straight, looking Liam straight in the eye. Her eyes obviously sparkled as she looked into his red eyes.
"Lets go outside," she said with a shy smile.

Liam was looking into Amelia's eyes for several moments, not really seeing anything else that was going on around him. He was glad that he had asked her to come to the ball with him. He was a little nervous by the question that Amelia asked him. "Yeah, okay, we can go outside," Liam said with a small smile.

Amelia felt her heart start to race... why did she want to go outside again? She couldn't remember! She smiled slightly anyway and turned, grabbing Liam's hand. She started to walk outside slowly, her fingers laceing with his. She hoped he didn't mind she did that...
The night sky was clear and starry that night. The full moon was large and sort of yellowish. She smiled as the Moon's radiance filled her soul. She loved the moon. The night was perfect for Halloween. As her and Liam walked she leane dover slightly to whisper:
"I almost expect to see a witch fly across the moon," she smiled at the Muggle Saying.

As Liam followed behind Amelia, he felt her lace her fingers between his. For him, this was a new feeling, but he did not object. As they reached the grounds, Liam looked up at the moon and noticed how beautifully peaceful it was. He looked into Amelia's eyes and noticed that they were even more beautiful than he had realized before.
Liam turned back to see the moon as Amelia spoke. "I could make it happen with a spimple spell, if you like," Liam replied, already reaching for his wand. "But, why did you want to come outside?"
