Chapter 523: Kyle's dark history

Chapter 523 Kyle’s Dark History

 The next day, weekend.

Early in the morning, Kyle sat at the table eating breakfast with a solemn expression.

"What's wrong with you?"

Cedric asked curiously: "Looking at you, it feels like you are about to compete in the second event."

“Honestly, I’d rather start the second project today.” Kyle sighed and said, “By the way, can you dance?”

"Yes." Cedric said casually: "My father took me to dances several times before, and I learned it specially... What, don't you know how to do it?"

 “Why do you all think I should be able to dance?”

Kyle took a bite of bread in annoyance, "If I could, I wouldn't have to worry so much."

"Pfft..." The muscles on Cedric's face tensed up, trying desperately not to laugh out loud.

 This was the first time he saw Kyle showing such a troubled look, which was so interesting.

"It's... not difficult." Cedric tried to make his voice sound the same as usual, "Just follow the music... I just saw the latest notice in the foyer, saying that Professor McGonagall will be there at ten in the morning. Find a club that holds a dance party and you can go check it out."

“You said that, in fact I was the first one to sign up.” Kyle said.

Cedric laughed harder and covered his mouth with his hands to prevent laughter from coming out.

 Actually, he didn’t want to do this, but for some reason, his mind was filled with images of Kyle frantically stepping on his partner’s shoes at the dance, and he couldn’t help it.

There was no other way, so Cedric could only excuse himself to look for Qiu, quickly left the table and ran to the Ravenclaw table next to him.

Kyle had been thinking about the next club, so he didn't notice anything wrong. He just thought he wanted to invite Qiu to the dance.

 The news that there will be a dance at Christmas has spread, and now everyone is talking about it. There are more students than ever registered to stay in school, as if everyone except those first years has chosen to stay at Hogwarts.

Girls gathered together in small groups, excitedly exchanging opinions and discussing what to wear on Christmas night.

The boys also behaved seriously, and Ryan put a brooch on his clothes. Kyle had never seen him wearing this before.

After a while, a girl with curly hair came over.

 “Kyle, can you go to prom with me?”

"Oh...Sorry." Kyle came back to his senses and said, "I already have a dance partner."

 “Is that so?” The girl looked disappointed when she left.

She was not the first. In the next ten minutes, several more girls came over, from every college, but they all got the same answer.

Kyle originally wanted to wait in the auditorium until the club started, but seeing the current situation, he gave up on that idea and got up and went back to the common room.

 …

At ten o'clock, Kyle came to the auditorium on time, and Connor and Cedric also came.

“You can dance, why did you come with me?” Kyle asked, looking at Cedric in confusion.

“Ahem, it’s nothing.” Cedric pretended to be calm and said, “It’s just that I haven’t danced for a long time and I want to get familiar with it again so as not to be embarrassed later.”

Kyle nodded, said nothing more, took a deep breath and pushed open the door of the auditorium.

 This place has been decorated in advance by Professor McGonagall. The long table has been moved to the side, leaving only rows of chairs. There are already many people sitting on it.

When Kyle walked over, his steps were extremely heavy, as if he was under a leg-locking spell. And somewhere he couldn't see, Cedric and the Weasley brothers were suppressing smiles, their faces full of anticipation.

After they arrived, Professor McGonagall closed the door with her wand and said: "Dancing is very simple... it's smart. There is a swan living in every girl's heart, and there is a leaping lion in every boy's heart..."

 It is no exaggeration to say that these were the most difficult two hours for Kyle so far.

 In fact, dancing is not difficult, at least it is much simpler than what Newt taught, but the problem is that before he learned to dance, Professor McGonagall called him up to give a demonstration...and then stepped on her three times.

Kyle could even clearly see Professor McGonagall's increasingly darker expression, as well as the undisguised laughter of Fred and George next to him.

 It doesn’t take much thinking to know that they will not let go of this dark history of theirs for a long time to come.

In fact, in the next few days, Fred's favorite thing was to imitate Kyle's clumsy movements and step on George's feet while eating.

In this regard, Kyle could only pretend that he saw nothing, mainly because he had no other choice. Who made him fall in love with these two friends?

 It is worth mentioning that the professors at Hogwarts seem to want to show the best of the castle to people from the other two schools.

So a few days before Christmas, the handrails of the castle stairs were covered with icicles that would never melt.

The twelve Christmas trees placed in the auditorium are also decorated with various baubles, from shiny holly berries to hooting golden owls.

It's just a pity for Kyle that this time the professors don't seem to be planning to let the ghosts serve as Christmas tree decorations anymore... He always thought that was the most interesting thing.

A Christmas tree filled with ghosts is sure to impress guests from far and wide.

 As Christmas gets closer, the castle becomes more lively. The girls always act together, and every time one of them receives an invitation, the others all burst into laughter.

 After a Charms class, Kyle met Harry in the corridor, but he didn't come to see him.

"Uh...Qiuzhang, can I say a word to you?" He held the hem of his robe with both hands and said nervously.

 “Of course, just tell me if you have anything to do.”

"Uh... can you just... go to the ball with me..." Harry asked hesitantly, his voice was so low that Kyle almost didn't hear what he said.

"I'm sorry, Harry." Qiu shook her head, "I already promised Cedric..."

Kyle was surprised to find that Harry's face was turning red at an incredible speed, as if someone was taking a brush and applying red paint to his face.

"Oh, okay, that's okay," Harry said casually, then turned around and left quickly.

 “I’m really sorry.” Qiu said again.

But Harry didn't hear it. In just a blink of an eye, he disappeared around the corner of the stairs.

Kyle smacked his lips and could only say that he was indeed the most talented seeker in Hogwarts. He was really fast.

“It’s always been like this lately. I really hope Christmas can come soon.” On the way to the auditorium, Qiu looked at Kyle and said, “Strange, why didn’t I see anyone inviting you?”

 “It’s just not there anymore,” Kyle said.

There were quite a few people who invited him a few days ago. After Professor McGonagall's club, several senior girls offered to teach him how to dance... but Kyle refused.

 At the level of their three-legged cats, Professor McGonagall is nowhere near as professional. He now has to be trained alone by Professor McGonagall and Professor Flitwick for three hours every day after dinner, and sometimes Nearly Headless Nick will also provide guidance.

This ghost who always likes to toss his head like a fan is actually quite accomplished in dancing...but when there is a head-tossing movement, it will be a little more scary.
