LISTEN ALL HARRY POTTER FANS:
My brother was watching Nick News and he called me in because something of Harry Potter was on. So of course I rushed out there forgetting about my drawing I was working on. It turned out people are getting angry with Harry Potter just because in the Bible it says witchcraft comes from the DEVIL! I mean, the book is there to be imaginative not learning about the devil! If you don't like the book, don't read it! I mean, they were throwing the books in FIRE! I was screaming my head off at the TV! That got me so angry! There are other things out there with witchcraft like Sabrina and even Horror stories and movies and yet they pick on Harry Potter! URGH! ::takes deep breaths::
A/N: Ok, after all my babbling up there I am going to type in the 7th chapter. Thank you all my reviewers! KEEP REVIEWING!
Disclaimer: Everything except the plot and some characters belongs to me. Everything else belongs to the wonderful J.K. Rowling whose NOT representing the Devil in her books!
Chapter 7: Who's THAT New Girl?
"So do you like my plan?" Lily said sleepily, to James who was also sleepy.
"Yeah, I guess so," James yawned making Lily yawn.
"I better go now, I don't want to keep Arabella waiting too long." Lily got up and grabbed her bag before going out of her room. James sat on Lily's bed for a few minutes then collapsed down and instantly fell asleep even though it was in the afternoon.
Lily looked at her watch. Her eyes turned slightly bigger as she realized that she was one minute late. She was never late even a second.
Lily burst through the Charm's room, panting.
"ImsosorryImlateArabella," Lily gasped in one breath.
Arabella was sitting on a desk up front, cross-legged. She looked shocked at Lily's sudden outburst but still seemed to understand each word clearly.
"Lily, your only," she looked at her own watch then giggled, "one minute late! Come on now, breathe and tell me your surprise for me."
Lily grinned. She looked like some kind of maniac. Arabella hopped off the desk and started backing up slowly.
"I don't think so," Lily then said a spell so that Arabella was tied up on a chair. She then walked over to Arabella.
"Sorry Arabella, I know you told me you don't like wearing makeup but it's for your own good."
Arabella's one eye widened like it always does when scared and was about to open her mouth to protest but Lily put a sleeping spell on her so she wouldn't move around.
Lily giggled at how much fun this was going to be.
First Lily put foundation on Arabella's face after washing it with a cloth. After that she put clear gloss on her friend's full lip deciding it would look good with her blond hair. Putting light pink eye shadow on Arabella's closed eyes, Lily started humming a song. For some reason she didn't seem tired now.
While putting on black eyeliner and mascara around Arabella's eyes, Lily thought of how scared she was yesterday. She couldn't even think straight. Lily was just glad James didn't harm himself. She would have really killed herself if anything happened to him. Lily put some natural blush on the other girl's face and giggled.
Wait till Arabella saw her new self. She would definitely love makeup after this.
After that, Lily did Arabella's long, blonde hair. First washed it with a spell and then dried it too, with a spell. After that was done, she French- braided the sides to her ears and braided it regularly in the back and tied them together. Then Lily placed one pink tropical flower in the back.
Looking down at Arabella's baggy muggle clothes she shook her head and grabbed a denim, short skirt and a pink, belly tan-top that had tropical flowers on it from her bag. Using her wand, she changed Arabella's clothes while looking away.
It wasn't a school day and they could wear anything they wanted.
Lily started to remembered this morning as she woke up to see James sitting in the chair by her bed asleep. He looked so adorable with his head lying on the side of her bed.
Lily gently shook him awake. James looked up, his glasses askew and his hair going everywhere.
"Thank you James." Lily whispered, slyly smiling at him.
James's lopsided grin appeared and he asked, "Why are you thanking me? I should be thanking you for letting me know that Snape could have died. God knows what could've happened then. My friends and I might have been expelled!"
"Well, for bringing me back up to my room," Lily blushed and looked down.
After that, Lily took a long bath, got dressed in a long dress and told James her plan for Arabella. Now here she was, opening Arabella's eyes to put blue contacts in even though she had brown eyes. A sudden flashback was brought to Lily's head.
It was the summer after her first year and she was lying on her bed, crying her eyes out.
Everyone made fun of her for being fat and having big, granny glasses.
"Lily," a soft voice spoke from her doorway, "are you ok? I have something for you."
Lily turned to her mother, wiping the tears from her eyes, "What?"
Her mother sat on the end of her bed and handed Lily a small package, wrapped up. Lisa, her mother, smiled as Lily unwrapped it. Lily gaped at her mother and wordlessly hugged her.
There laid a pair of clear contacts in the box.
Lily was about to break down crying but thought better of it. Instead she turned her attention back to Arabella. Lily backed up to survey her work and nodded in approval. Lily said the reversal for the sleeping spell.
"Lily please don't put makeup-" Arabella stopped in mid sentence as she looked down. She gasped in shock.
"Li-Lily do you have a mirror with you?"
Lily nodded and used her wand to undo the ropes. Then she pulled a full- length mirror out of her small bag. Arabella didn't even ask about that and turned her attention to the mirror.
Arabella went in circles looking at everything Lily done.
"Wow, that doesn't even look like me! Thank you Lily, I'll never forget this day!" Arabella ran to a smiling Lily, and hugged her.
"Well, let's go show Remus that you're no dork!" Lily punched her fist in the air, then grabbed her bag and put everything in it, and marched out the door, with Arabella at her heels.
As they entered the Great Hall, considering it was almost dinnertime, everyone in there turned to see who entered. There were several gasps, some opened mouth, and even a few fainted.
Remus looked tired and worn out until he saw Arabella. His eyes went big and his mouth parted slightly. Lily was about to laugh at Remus's expression, but stopped when she saw the uneasiness on Arabella's face
"It's okay Arabella, hmm, let's make up a new name. Arabella's too long. What about…Bella. It has a nice sound! Now, take a few breaths and calm down. Look at how the guys are looking at us!"
BELLA looked around, and then started blushing when she realized WHAT they were looking at.
"I don't know Lily," Bella started but was cut off when Lily gave her a push towards the Gryffindor table.
"Just ask him if he wants to go for a walk around the lake or something! Now go!"
Bella slowly walk over to Remus and sat down. Lily watched as both of their faces turned red by the second. Remus nodded and Bella and him walked out the Great Hall. Lily smiled and thought that her job was done.
Looking around, Lily blushed as she realized everyone was staring at her. Mumbling something no one understood, she walked over to her table. Before she had a chance to sit down, a pair of strong hands covered Lily's eyes.
"I have a surprise, just say it's a thank you." A voice whispered in her right ear sending Lily into shivers.
The male voice led her somewhere Lily had no idea of. The hands let go from around Lily's face.
Lily gasped at what she saw. There in front of her was a blanket with different sorts of her favorite foods. Music played from somewhere above. Lily turned around and gasped again. There was James looking much better than he was in the morning, the nap apparently did him good.
He was wearing bellbottoms (A/N: ::laughing my head off:: It's hard picturing guys wearing bellbottoms, but they did back then!) and a striped white and blue t-shirt.
He grinned at Lily's shocked look.
Tears welled up in Lily's eyes, "All of this is for me?"
James sat down on the blanket and nodded, then patted the spot next to him.
"For you," James whispered.
Lily sat down as tears spilled down her face, "No one has done anything like this for me, other then my…parents."
"It's no problem, really. Please don't cry."
Lily wiped the tears from her eyes and looked briefly across the lake to see Bell and Remus talking to each other.
Looking back at James she could tell he was trying not to look in her eyes.
"James, I'm not going to read your mind, I don't want to invade your privacy. I don't have to read your mind, to tell what you're thinking right now."
James slowly turned and smiled at Lily.
"I knew that, just testing you out."
"Yeah…right." Lily giggled.
"Would you like some chicken?" James asked fumbling with the basket, blushing. What was Lily doing to him? One minute he was Mr. Cool James and then it was like he started stuttering in front of her, blushing, and tripping over himself. Next thing you know, his knees are going to wobble when they kiss! Wait, rewind that, when they kiss? James shook his head making Lily laugh. James came out of his trance and look at Lily questioning.
"I do want my chicken sometime."
James blushed again and handed her the basket then grabbed himself one. They ate in silence for a while just eating different foods, slyly glancing at each other out of the corner of their eye, and listening to the soft music.
James finally got the courage and asked, "Lily, would you like to dance?"
Lily, nodded blushing. It seemed as if by every second she turned an extra shade of red.
James stood up and offered his hand to Lily. She accepted it and stood up also.
"James, I never danced with a guy before." Lily started playing with a piece of loose tread on her dress but was stopped when James took both of her arms and placed them around his neck and then placed his arms around her waist.
Lily started twitching remembering when they first bumped into each other at Madame Malkin's but soon calmed down and looked into James eyes. They swayed like that, looking into each other's eyes. James placed his forehead on Lily's.
In the background, the sun started setting; it's different colors of orange reflection the lake.
It seemed as if nothing could ruin this moment, Lily thought wondering how all of a sudden she was in James's arms. They didn't need to kiss to know what the other was feeling. All they had to do was look into each other's eyes.
Lily now knew she never had to look into his eyes to read his mind. His eyes already said everything.
