Chapter 8:Before The Ball
"I can't wait 'til the ball!" Gwen squeaked as she entered the dorm.
"What Ball?" Asked Lily from behind a pile of homework.
"The Back To School Ball. Haven't you heard? Only Fifth, Sixth and Seventh years are allowed and it's supposed to be the best.
"Oh that ball. Yeah, and I have a date."
"Who are you going with?" Cloey asked coming out if the shower. That exact moment Lily asked "When's the ball?"
"Next Friday, there's no classes!" Gwen replied.
"That's great! I hope no one bugs me bout my date." Lily added quietly.
"You never answered my question. Who are you going with to make you all excited usually you aren't this excited."
"Aisidsus" She mumbled.
"Who?" Lily and Cloey demanded.
"Sirius okay. Sirius Black!" She shouted. AT that moment Bella came in.
"What about the infamous Black Gwen?" She asked.
" I'm going to the ball with okay!" She still screamed.
"Okay calm down. Good caz I'm going with Remus." She blushed.
"What is it with you people. These are the marauders we're talking about! You have all betrayed me. At least Cloey is with me.
"Actually, I'm going with Peter, I figured he be the only one to ask me, and he hangs out with the Marauders." She babbled.
"Fine, Fine, I might as well Tell you since mines no worse than yours! I'm going with Severus Snape, he's better than Potter." She stormed out and bumped into James.
"What do *you* want?" She asked rudely.
"Dumbledore wants us in his office , something about the Ball. Come on." He started to walk.
" I hope you know I'm furious with you. You ruined my relationship with Josh just for your own sick pleasure."
"You didn't even love him did you?" James asked quietly.
"That's not the point. You made it seem like me and you had an affair of something!" People were starting to stare.
" He didn't deserve you." James said to himself. Luckily for him, Lily didn't hear. Finally they arrived at Dumbledore's office.
"Ms. Evans, Mr. Potter, I need to tell you a little ah, some news lets say. You two still don't seem to be getting along. The other teachers and I have decided we need to use drastic measures. From now on you will have every single class together. You also must go to the dance together. That is All." They were shocked.
"Wait, hold on, there is no way I can stand that much Potter! It's impossible."
"It ain't gonna be no picnic for me either.(hahahah)" James countered.
"I already have a date too." Lily whined.
"Oh and another thing this will be a secret, no one should know that you are forced to do this. Not even the others. I feel it would be best if you told everyone you were er a couple." He turned away clearly indicating dismissal.
*This is crazy! What will people think.* They both thought as they left.
"Wait, hold on! Does this mean we have to act like- like a couple!" Lily realized when they got to the Fat Lady.
"Yep." James smiled, this was gonna be fun!! (not like he's admitting he likes her, more like he thinks it will be fun cause Lily hates it.)
They entered the common room holding hands. (hey! they HAD to) Everyone in the common room stopped and looked at them.
They walked over to their friends. Everyone was silent.
"Why is everyone staring?" Lily asked feigning innocence.
"Maybe, cause Lily Evans and James Potter are -are acting like a couple." Gwen said incredulously.
"Maybe because we are." James smiled. This was way too fun. It was like the biggest prank of the year.
"Wait, when did this happen?" Asked Sirius.
"This afternoon. We were sick of fighting so, we decided we should get together. Well, if you all don't mind, I would like to go up to bed, it was a long day. Tomorrows Saturday, we can go shopping for the ball." With that Lily kissed James (on the cheek) and went up to bed. Seconds later James went to his bed. When they were both gone the group discussed the new couple.
"Well, that was completely out of the blue." Sirius commented.
"I definitely wasn't expecting that." Gwen agreed. Peter was in the hospital wing.
"Yep, very odd." Cloey agreed.
"Does anyone else think something funny is going around." Remus asked.
"I do, I mean when do two sworn enemies beside to go out?" Arabella agreed.
"Are you doubting they really are going out." Asked Cloey.
"I don't know, but we need to investigate." With that they all went up to bed. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
