I flung Sylvie's closet doors open and pulled out a gorgeous, black satin dress. It had a diamond buckle in the middle of the torso area on the halter dress. I came down to the knee and matched perfectly with her black satin pumps. She had diamond earrings and a diamond necklace to match. She straightened her long blond hair and pulled the front back.

"Perfect!" I exclaimed.

"Do you really like it?" She asked shyly.

"We'll leave that for Sirius to decide," I remarked smiling. She blushed a deep crimson and turned away. "Let's do Rachel's outfit next," I smiled. She gave me a thankful smile and ran to Rachel's bed.

"Rachel get up!" She giggled. There was no movement. Sylvie let out an ear-piercing scream. Both Rachel and Alice awoke with a start. Rachel's head smashed into the head board.

"Oi!" She shrieked. "What the hell was that for?"

"You need to get ready for the ball!" I announced. Alice grinned and Rachel groaned.

"Do we have to?" I smacked Rachel playfully on the back of the head and slowly she made her way to the closet. As she slowly walked I took out my own dress and returned it to normal size.

Rachel slowly pulled out a silky, light pink, spaghetti strap dress that looked fabulous with her light brown hair. It was tight on the torso and bubbled out on the bottom. She put it on and my mouth dropped open. She looked stunning.

"I'm not even going to look," she replied, "By the looks on your faces I can already tell it looks horrible."

"N-no," I stuttered. "You might want to look." She slowly turned towards the mirror and gasped. The dress hugged her in all the right places and matched perfectly with her complexion. Then Rachel curled her light brown hair into perfect ringlets. Alice was next. She pulled on a baby blue, knee length dress that was tight but looked incredible. Alice put her long, dark hair into a French braid that she lightly pulled over one shoulder. While they all huddled around the mirror re-doing their hair and make-up, I slowly got into my gown and slipped into my emerald satin pumps. I slowly curled my hair into large ringlets, and then twisted my hair up with a large green clip, but left two strands of hair down in the front to frame my face. I put a tiny bit of make-up on and turned to my friends.

"How do I look?" I interrupted. The three of them turned to me and their mouths dropped open. Sylvie wolf-whistled and I blushed a shade darker than my hair.

"Wait till James sees you!" Alice screamed. I looked in the mirror and smiled, hopefully he would think she looked good after all her hard work. A couple of hours went by as they kept re-doing their make-up and gossiping. It was time to go.

"Who's going first?" Lily asked.

"You!" The three shrieked pointing at Lily. She started shaking her head but her three friends pushed her to the door. She slowly turned the knob, and descended down the staircase of the heads dorm where the girls were getting ready. Her hand rested lightly on the railing and simply slid down as she slowly walked. She could see James waiting at the bottom.

I could hear the soft clicking of heels on the head dorm staircase. I jumped up, straightened my shirt, and rushed to the bottom of the staircase. My precious Lilyflower was making her way down the stairs, carefully avoiding tripping on her long dress and high heels. She reached the bottom and I took her right hand and gently laid a kiss on it.

"You look beautiful. Scratch that! You look beyond stunning!" I exclaimed. She smiled that brilliant smile of hers and I couldn't help but grin. I didn't even wait to see my other friends get their girls; I led Lily out the portrait hole. I wanted her to see how amazing the ball looked because of her.

Sorry guys! We had a writer's block! Sorry for the wait, please review to give us some input! Thx!
