Chapter 26: You Want Me To WHAT !?!?!
Then next day was Monday. Everyone was talking about the ball. The Slytherins were upset about the muggle theme but everyone else couldn't wait. Lily, Gwen, Arabella and Haley didn't talk about anything else. After classes they were all in the common room.
"Are we planning anything for the ball?" Sirius whispered to James hoping the girls wouldn't here. They did.
"Sirius Orion Black, if you try anything at the Ball I will NEVER talk to you again." Gwen scolded.
"What, innocent me? Play a prank? You must have me confused with Ferdonan." Ferdonan was a Ravenclaw goody-too-shoes. Everyone snorted.
"Sirius do you promise, no pranks?" Gwen said sweetly, sitting in his lap and smiling seductively.
"Marauders Promise." He and Gwen then proceeded to makeout.
"Oh please, get a room." Lily said throwing a pillow at the couple. She went back to doing a potions essay. She threw her quill down in frustration.
'This is insane, who gives a shit who made the first Sleeping Potion!" She looked at the group. Her eyes fluttered to James and she smiled.
"Oh James, your good in potions."
"Yeah, your point?" He acted dumb.
"Help me! Pretty please, with a cherry on top?" She begged.
"I don't know, why should I?" He teased.
"I'll love you forever!"
"Oh fine, just give it here, I'll write it!" He gave in.
"Yay! Your the bestest." She gave him a hug.
"I know."
Later that night:
Everyone had gone to bed except Lily and James. Lily yawned.
"I'm really tired, I'm going to bed."
"Wait, Lily I have a to talk to you." James said seriously.
"Yes?' She said sitting back down next to James,
He took a deep breath. "Lily, I know your with Evan, but I can't stop thinking of you. I never got over you last year and I can't stand it anymore. I love you Lily! "
"James, I'm sorry, I-I " She ran up to her dorm crying.
'What have I done?" He asked himself.
Lily ran up to her dorm. Bella, Gwen and Haley were sleeping. She lay down on her bed. She couldn't sleep though. She got out her journal and began writing. She wrote a song.
It was around 11:30 when I realized I miss you,
sitting at home all alone thinking what did I
just do, feeling was strong coming on and I knew I wanted you,
something inside me held me back,
boy you got me scared of you.
[Chorus 2x]
You got me afraid to let my love go.
Is it my heart that I should follow.
Got me afraid to let myself go.
Got me scared of you.
[Verse 2]
If I let go I don't know if my heart will remain strong
cause you the type that just might give
right and get me strong I couldn't be just a girl
that you're seeing once a month cause if it
goes down better believe I'm gonna be your only one
[Chorus 2x]
[Bridge 2x] Should I let it go,
Should I let it go no no no no
Should I let it go,
Should I let it go no no
no no no no
[Chorus 2x]
[Bridge 2x]
She read it over. Yes this was right. She was definitely scared. She fell into a dreamless sleep.
The next day was the day of the Ball. Lily avoided James who looked very sad. Everyone noticed but they didn't ask. Sirius had a feeling he knew what happened. Remus, Gwen, Haley and Arabella could only imagine and were worried. Evan on the other hand was very happy that Lily was avoiding James.
They sat down to breakfast when Dumbledore stood up.
"I have a very grave announcement to make. Do to a blizzard in America our band can not make it here. We will have to cancel the Ball if no one can come up with an alternative plan. I am very sorry for the disappointment." Everyone moaned sadly and tried to come up with a plan to keep the Ball from being canceled. Lily was so deep in her thoughts she didn't see the Marauders and Gwen and Bella conversing. After about fifteen minutes they all got up and made there way to Charms. Lily was taking notes when Bella handed her a note.
Bella-We came up with a plan!
Lily-What is it?
Gwen-Well, it has to do with you.
Lily- Me? How can I help
Sirius-Well, you have a great voice, remember that time on the train last year, and
Lily-I don't like where this is going.
Remus- Just listen to us. We know u can sing and you are always writing songs.
Lily- I can not
Gwen- You can't lie Lily, we know you too well.
Lily-Just tell me the plan!
Sirius-Maybe Remus should explain, he's the most persuading
Remus- Thank you Padfoot. Anyway, so we want you to sing for the Ball.
Lily- You want me to WHAT!?!?!
Remus-Sing at the Ball, your really good and I heard Dumbledore telling Sprout that the Blizzard was ending and the Band G-town or whatever might be able to make it a little late, but just in case you can sing.
Lily- NO way!!
Sirius- Pleaseeeeeeee! I'll do anything!
Lily- Really *evil look* anything?
Sirius- I know what ur thinking. I'm not doing that!
Lily-That's the only way I'll sing.
Remus-Just do it Padfoot, how bad can it be?
Sirius- Bad *shudder*
Gwen- Please Siri, I'll wuv u for eva!
Sirius- Fine, but your evil Lily! The devil in disguise!
Lily- Why thank you!
