Yes! FINALLY the ball. Those poor students. They have been waiting for this for WEEKS!!!!
I know that it is short, and has been a long time, but since my last chapter only got like 2 reviews, I believe that it doesn't matter anymore. I have been cast aside like an old shell, waiting for the cruel tide to bring me back to sea...umm, ok...
After Kera and *sigh* Sirius had been found, the group proceeded to the ball. Lily thought she saw Peter there, with a tall blonde girl from Slytherin. She thought that the girl was called Carley, but she only could see the side of her face. Besides, Peter had been busy, she thought. That was what he had told the group, directly after she had turned him down.
That girl. She looked so familiar. She must have been in the paper or something.
Lily gasped! That girl had been in the Daily Prophet for Dark Arts. She had escaped charges for being so young, but still. She wasn't the kind of person you would want to come in Überclose contact with. So what in the world was Peter, their Peter, doing with someone like her. By now Lily had walked far past him. She turned to say hello, but he was gone!
"James!" Lily hissed.
"What?" James whispered back, as much as one could listen with the loud disco-y music being played.
"Peter was here. Didn't you see him?"
"Nope, sorry, Lils."
Lily asked all her friends, but she had been the only one to see him. Lily was getting so frustrated she could scream!
Lily decided to relax, she couldn't see Peter and Carley anymore either.
"Hey! Wait for me!" Lily screamed. Her friends were going to dance, and Lily definitely wanted to be a part of it. She laughed when she saw the males dance, they looked like John Travolta wannabes. Of course, they had no idea who John Travolta was, they would compare themselves to Edwin "Winnie" Godo, the 3 years in a row winner of the Witch's Weekly "Dance like you are a ghost" contest. Or, they might not. Whatever.
Lily smiled when she heard the song playing, it had been her song that she had submitted! It had won! Every ball, Hogwarts would have a contest to see who could write the best song, to be sang by the Grusome Gools, Hogwarts' favorite band!
(An: umm, I tried to write a song, but it came out stupid, so just pretend that it is a lovely song about love and longing and how this guy doesn't know it blah blah blah...)
Lily went to sit by James, who for once wasn't with Sirius, seeing how many cups of punch could be balances on their heads while they sang the Hogwarts anthems and made fart noises with their hands. It was a tradition at every dance, they had started it in first year, when they had sneaked into a dance.
"Why aren't you dancing with your date, Lily?" James asked her. He was surprised that she wasn't dancing, she had been for the entire rest of the dance. And trust me, he had been watching her.
"My date, James, hasn't asked me to dance, you dense boy. And yes, that is a hint."
"Ahh, forgive me, fair lady. May I ask thee for the pleasure that is mine to dance?"
"Yes, Jamie, but don't be a goose, and your chivalrous talk is all wrong, and quite confusing."
They danced through Lily's song, and then the ball was over. Lily was floating back to the common room, when she saw Peter duck down a corridor that had been closed for a while, but was now opened again.
Lily raced to her room, and once she had secured backups of Sirius, James, and Kera, she ran back down to the place where she thought she had seen him go in.
