Author Note: I'm sorry for the late update. I haven't quite decided where the plot will go and hence it took a bit of time to write this chapter up. Hope you enjoy!
Freakiness and live4dance thanks for those amazing reviews! Do review!
Here you go!
"Sirius Black! What do you think you're doing?"
Bewildered, Sirius whirled around his cool stance lost for a moment, he heaved a sigh of relief as he saw his dark haired, hazel eyed friend looking at him in utter amazement.
"You scared the shit out of me, mate," he retorted, "Don't you dare do it again!"
James' eyes widened, "Yeah whatever. Obviously my best mate has no manners," he started, "and of course thinks that getting into my and trying out my clothes is something I should not reprimand him for!"
Sirius rolled his eyes, with black wavy hair which he kept long enough to tie in a ponytail and brown eyes, he was every woman's fantasy.
"I could not find anything to wear," he defended himself. It was James turn to roll his eyes, he opened his mouth to say something but decided against it, and so he just shook his head.
"What! It's Wen's birthday party today!"
James said nothing as he settled down on a plush leather chair, "You're going to go?"
Sirius gave him a look, "Of course, I am," he exclaimed, "And so are you !"
James sighed and shook his head, as he rose to take a file and proceeded to flip through its pages. When he noticed Sirius giving him a blank look, he said, "Not in a mood to party, dude. I have enough things to worry about."
Sirius' blank expression changed into one of astonishment, "A twenty year old young handsome man who doesn't want to go to a party which will be full of hot, sexy, jaw dropping girls!"
James looked up from his file, a slight smile tugging on his lips, "Padfoot, I got stuff to do. You know what my father expects of me."
Sirius rolled his eyes, "That's like the only god damn excuse you ever make!"
James glared at him incredulously and raised his eyebrows, Sirius on noticing his expression immediately jumped to his defense, "Seriously Prongs! Try thinking of some new excuses once in a while."
James' glare did not falter, and to add to effect, he narrowed his eyes, "Not funny, Padfoot."
Sirius let out a sigh of exasperation, "it's no good talking to you. You don't know how to have fun anymore."
"We've grown up now."
Sirius gave him a look, "Yeah, you sure have." There was a pause.
James bent down into his file again, as Sirius stared off lost in thought. "You and me, we used to have a blast at school, but now you've changed so much," he said, his eyes still on the wall.
James slammed the file down on his desk, "You're such a drama queen, Sirius!"
Sirius glanced up to look at James, whose face had now broken into a proper smile.
"We're on then?"
James rolled his eyes and glared at Sirius' outfit, "What am I supposed to bloody wear when you're in my clothes?"
The club was packed. Packed with beautiful girls with long legs and beautiful dresses that must have been worth more than all of Lily's life savings put together. Packed with handsome young men, who seemed to be able to charm every girl around them, who were probably heirs to millions and millions of dollars. There they were dancing in their glory while Lily rushed from person to person taking their orders and preparing their drinks She couldn't help but feel a little jealous, more than a few times her eyes would dart longingly towards those girls and she would find herself wishing to be one of them. One of them. It seemed to Lily that being one of them would be the solution to all the problems in the world, having those charming young men court them, having rich daddies and mommies – who made sure that their daughters received the best education. Education. The word made her cringe – that was the reason that she was here serving these people just so that she could only be able to pay her tuition fee for college. Her thoughts would occasionally be disturbed by someone demanding a drink or with Sheena saying something to her.
Sheena had told her that the girls would be rude to her – or as she had put it, abrupt. She didn't think so, she interacted with no one at all and she found that it was very easy to be ignored by everyone. All she had to do was get them their drinks and smile at them a bit, or not. It wasn't as if they noticed it or anything. Not that she cared, she was here for the money and she was fine with them ignoring her all they wanted – it just made her job easier. It was nearing 10 o'clock and the intensity of her customers had greatly lessened. A few drunks flocked to Sheena, she saw when she glanced at Sheena to see how she was doing. It was then she saw it.
She was tall, elegant, and to put in one word – beautiful. Her hair was pulled up in the form of a complicated little twist and it was deep chocolate brown. Her eyes were blue – a dark inky blue and she was very fair. She was wearing a lilac dress bordered with silver and it brought out her skin beautifully. It came up to her mid thigh and there was subtle slit on the right side. Lily gaped at her – she had come across many pretty girls but this girl was exceptionally gorgeous. Sheena noticed her expression and she couldn't help but smile.
She edged closer to her, and startled Lily when she whispered into her ear, "That Lily, is Wendy White. Our very own birthday girl."
Lily closed her mouth, but said nothing. She interlaced her fingers and said in a low voice, "I didn't think she would be this lovely."
Sheena giggled, as she brought out two wine glasses and served some white wine.
"It's in her genes." She pushed one towards Lily, Lily raised her eyebrows. Sheena nodded absently, as she brought her wine glass to her perfect red lips
"Her bloody rich genes," she sneered. Lily couldn't help being amused a bit at her friend's hostility towards the pretty girl. She shook her head lightly as she too brought the wine glass to her lips.
It seemed that it was time to cut the cake. Cake! Lily couldn't believe it when Sheena told it to her. What 21 year old cut a cake? Apparently, this one did. She stretched a little, to catch a glimpse of the cake, the crowd was surrounding Wendy now and it was very difficult to see past it. Sheena had told her that it was a chocolate 7 tier cake. Now, Lily had seen cakes – she had seen big cakes but she had never seen a 7 tier cake! How the hell can it possibly be made?
In her curiosity to see Wendy and the cake, she didn't notice a handsome boy with messy dark hair come up to her counter, and stand in front of her, tapping his foot incessantly. "Lily." "Lily!" "LIly!" "LILy!" "LILY!"She realized that Sheena was saying something to her, she turned at Sheena who was frantically pointing behind her with an alarmed look on her face. She turned to see what she was pointing at – and somehow ended up pouring her wine right onto a dark black suit. She drew back in surprise, terrified at what she had done – only to guiltily look up and meet the gaze of the most beautiful hazel eyes she had ever seen – gleaming with anger.
I hope you all liked it! Please review!
