I Thought You Were American! PV | L. Choi Closed

This year, Koko decided she wanted to get out of the Common Room. She had been quite the hermit for a while, and after the debacle that was her move over the summer, Koko supposed it would be a good idea to venture around the castle on her own time, not just when she actually meant to go somewhere.

She meandered aimlessly through the corridors, a gentle smile fluttering on her lips as she forgot the summer and the year before. She was in the present, and her happiness was a butterfly - it would fly higher and higher, and she would not stop it.

She spun into the ballroom before realising where she was. The room, as always, was elegant, and Koko felt out of place in her trousers and T-shirt.

Koko stared at the ceiling in a slightly-out-of place wave of awe. She almost never entered this room, and now, she was beginning to wonder why. There was something so, well, magical about it. She was thinking more of the Muggle definition of 'magical', but she supposed 'enchanting' would be a better word.

The walls, too, were bewitching in the way they curved and glittered and gleamed. Perhaps this was truly the room that made Hogwarts a school of magic. If only Koko had been smart enough to wander by here more often last year.

Granted, last year she was too busy hiding from all of the horrors the school boasted. Sometimes she wondered how these terrible things got in, but more recently, she had been trying to avoid thinking about it.

She really hoped the ballroom was spider-free.

Before Koko really knew what she was doing, she was spinning around the deserted ballroom. The clicks her heels made against the polished floor echoed throughout the room, and as each step propelled her, she began to properly dance - except she was on her own.

A proper dance needed a partner, after all -

- so Koko kept spinning, her gaze trained towards the ceiling and her hair spiralling behind her, hoping that maybe someone might find her and perhaps ask for a dance.
