Private to Ginny
I know this is weird to be addressing it to you but I think you're the only person who'll be even vaguely nice.
Now no crap about whether or not Theo's right for me, please, I've got other worries tonight.
I'm so scared I'm going to mess things up for the ball. I think my dress is okay, and I've tried it on plenty of times, and I do think I look quite pretty in it. But pretty for me, you know? And I really want to feel good about myself this night, whatever happens with Theo. I'm just worried about what he's going to think and what the other girls are going to say.
The thing is, to be honest, Pansy's not exactly a stunner herself. But she gets away with it. I don't think I have the confidence to do that.
I really want to feel happy with the way I look but I'm scared that I won't, and I don't want Theo looking at me wishing he'd gone with someone else.
