The next morning was a bright and beautiful Saturday. No morning could match up to it, the sun was shining, birds singing, and not a cloud was in the sky. Too bad none of the Charleston kids were awake to see it! None of them (except Steven, a morning person) even thought about waking up until lunchtime.
At 11:00, Hermione, accompanied by Harry, Ron, and Steven, opened the curtains of Eve's bed. They all began talking very loudly. All the good this did was, Eve groaned and smacked the snooze button on her clock and rolled over, fast asleep. Hermione turned around to the guys; "She turned me off!"
They tried it again; Eve whimpered and turned to her clock with out noticing the others in front of her. Eve realized it wasn't on, then she slowly turned to look at them and jumped.
"Walkin', talkin' Jesus! You guys scared me!" she exclaimed, falling back onto her pillow. "What time is it?"
"A little after 11, we thought you might want lunch, so we're giving ya some time to get ready." Steven declared
So Eve pulled the covers off of her, revealing a Juliet style nightgown; it had a tight, shaped high-waisted, sleeve-less, embroidered top and a long flowing skirt. The dark red material brought out the Reddish tent in her Mahogany colored hair.
"Are y'all gonna sit there an watch while I get ready or something? She asked, slightly amused
"Planning on it." Replied a hopeful looking Ron. She giggled as she put on her makeup and brushed out her hair.
She went in the powder room and changed, when she came out, Hermione was looking at her makeup; Ron was going threw her drawers; Steven was sprawled on her bed; and Harry was looking in her trunk. Most people would probably be mad at people going through their stuff, but Eve didn't care-she was a major snoop too and had already gone through Parvati's stuff and was almost through Lavender's. Eve merely walked to Hermione and offered her a make over. Then she went to Harry, who was looking at her notebooks and papers.
"Ya wouldn't wanna read those," she warned as he opened one up, "probably boring."
"What's in it?" he asked
"Basically my outlook on life since the 7th grade. Their informal diary's, I was never one of those `Dear Diary` types" She replied, "it begins with this one." She said pointing at the red one he was holding. "That's from the middle of 7th grade, it's really depressing, as I was in depression, that I didn't come out of until the beginning of 8th grade, or that one." She replied, pointing to a pink one, one or two behind the first.
Taking out the first one, he settled on a chair and began reading. She walked over to where Ron was standing, examining her underwear drawer.
"Like 'em?" she asked as he picked up her "Tinker Bell" panties. Blushing madly, he dropped them and hastily closed the drawer. She then strolled over and sat on her bed, where Steven was playing with her stuffed animals.
"Remember him?" Eve asked, nodding to the ratty toy bunny he was holding.
"How can I not?" he asked, laughing "You wouldn't go anywhere with out him for years! But his ratty-ness doesn't compare to my teddy bear."
"You still have T. McBear?!?" she asked, laughing
"Of course! He's up in my dormitory"

The day and following week dragged by, and the next Friday, the Charleston kids met in the Slytherin common room at midnight.
"How was y'alls' week?" asked Eve
"Good" they all grunted
"That's good, any new gossip?" everyone perked up from their earlier status.
"Pansy Parkinson slapped Draco Malfoy yesterday!" squealed Heather
"Yeah! She was all, `you like some other slut and wanna dump me, you'll be sorry if that's true! ` And he was all `we were never going out! ` And she slapped him across the face!" added Chessy
"Golly gee, I do wonder who she was referring to?!?" asked Chase, almost too sarcastically, looking at Eve-who blushed as red as the hearts on her boxers (she was sleeping in boxers and a tank).
Before long, they had all fallen asleep in the Slytherin common room.
At about 2 a.m., Eve woke up shivering. But it wasn't the cold that had woken her up; she had the strange feeling of being watched, sure enough, two dazzling silver eyes were staring back at her. Draco Malfoy was kneeling in front of her. Before Eve could say anything, he took off his sweatshirt and slipped it over her head.
"Thank you" she whispered
"You're welcome" Draco whispered back and softly kissed her on the cheek before pushing her back down so she was laying on Steven again.
* * *
Eve woke up the next morning to the sullen face and hooked nose of Severus Snape.
"AAAHHHHHHH" Eve screamed as he loomed over her and hugged Steven closer, who was woken by her scream.
"What do we have here?" he asked smiling, " two Gryffindors, Ravenclaws', and Hufflepuffs', all out of bed all night long. MUHAHAHA!"
Luckily, they didn't get into trouble because of their quick exit. Eve and Steven sprinted to the door, while Chase and Jeff took the chimney and Dan and Debbie went through a tapestry.
They ran all the way back to Gryffindor tower, parted at the dorms and Eve didn't stop until she dove under the blankets on her bed. As it was about 5, she didn't have much trouble getting back to sleep.
She woke up again at 11 to lovely 4 star entertainment: Lavender's glass shattering singing was echoing from the shower room.
"She's so lucky, she's a star, But she cry, cry, cries in her lonely heeaaart, thinkin: If there's nothin' missin' in my life, then wwhhhy do these tears come at night?"
Eve got up and dressed. She left wearing a dark red T-shirt and hip-hugger jeans with her robes partly open for clear view of her outfit. When she got down to the common room, everybody was already there. Hermione looked up from her game of chess with Ron.
"Good, you're up. I was about to go up and drag you out of bed." She said as Eve sat down with her wand and one of Parvati's copies of TEEN WITCH. She was teaching herself a preserving charm for makeup and hair when she noticed Harry wasn't there. As she was wondering why, a snowy owl she noticed to be Hedwig dropped a small note in her lap. She opened it and read:
Eve,
I was wondering if you would come up to my
room for a few minutes. I have something to
ask you.
Harry
She folded up the note and put it in her pocket, stood up and, with everyone watching her closely, made her way over to the guys' dorm door. When she got there, she knocked and Harry let her in.
"Hello" he said
"Hey, what's up?"
"Nothing much, I was just going to ask you.ya see, I really like you and.um.I was wondering.if you would.well." he took a deep breath " will you be my girlfriend?" Eve was so startled by the question that she had to grab hold of Dean's four-poster to keep her balance.
"Never mind, forget I asked." He exclaimed, seeing her immediate reaction. But Eve found her voice and composure.
"Well, if circumstances were not what they are, I would forget you asked. But seeing as how I like you too, I'm choosing to remember and accept your offer. If it's still open." Eve said.
Harry, realizing what Eve had said, ran over and wrapped his arms around her waist, pulling her against him. She could hear his heart beating, her head against his chest, in their tight hug.
They walked into the common room together, holding hands.
