Ch.2 Truth and Hair
The first month of school went by quickly. Classes were interesting for the most part, as this being their sixth year no classes were required. Everything went pretty normal, until the middle of October when students began to prepare for the Halloween dance.
"I can't wait to go to the dance. It's just a week from this Saturday!" cried Torri one evening.
"You just can't wait to buy new dress robes!" Lily accused laughing.
"I'm getting mine at Gladrags this weekend," commented Marie. "How about you guys?"
"Me too," said Lily. "I baby-sat all summer to earn enough money for some nice ones. I'm so glad there are no little kids around here!"
Torri exchanged a look with Marie. "Lils." She said in an exasperated voice. "You like baby-sitting. Quit complaining!"
"I am not complaining!" Lily cried, her voice rising.
"Geez, don't freak out about it!" said Torri scornfully.
"I am not freaking out!" shouted Lily defensively. "Why can't you ever be nice?"
"What is your problem?!" Torri snarled.
"You are!" Lily yelled. "Just stay away from me!" She gathered up her things and ran to her dormitory as people turned to stare.
Lily threw herself on the bed barely containing tears of frustration and rage. Mostly she was mad at herself. /Why do I always loose my temper!/ she thought. She knew Torri was her best friend in the wizarding world and that Marie was a close second. But sometimes it seemed like Torri and Marie were her older sisters. They would patronize her and sometimes she felt like the odd one out. She also knew that by tonight all would be forgiven whether she wanted it to or not.
She felt so confused. Between her odd feelings for James, her fights with Marie and Torri, and the things going on back home she felt as though her brain was as messy as the junk thrown underneath her bed. For the fifth time that week she reached into her nightstand and pulled out the letter. It was from Julie, her best muggle friend at home. They had been friends for forever. Lily couldn't help but feel Julie needed her at home. Julie's boyfriend, Paul, had been pressured into dumping her, and the next day had asked her out again. The thing that worried Lily was that Julie had accepted. It felt wrong to Lily, but there was nothing she could do while she was at Hogwarts. She sighed and refolded the letter, ready to go back downstairs for dinner and talk to her friends.
The weather was chilly and they had to bundle warm for the walk to Hogsmeade the next afternoon. The girl's first stop was at Gladrags. There they spent a few hours trying on robes. When they finally left it was nearly time to leave, they had just enough time to stop for some butterbeers in the Three Broomsticks.
Marie entered first and chose a table near the fireplace. It was also right beside the table occupied by the Marauders. Lily saw this and sat down with an odd look on her face. She decided to ignore the boys and began talking about the dance and their purchases. They had had tons of fun trying on robes together and Lily was glad to have such great friends.
The rest of the week passed quickly with the excitement of the upcoming dance. By Friday night everyone was so wound up there was no chance of sleep. Lily, Torri and Marie gathered on Torri's bed for a late night chat. The conversation wasn't picking up well and everyone agreed to play a round of Truth or Hair. "Tomorrow night's the dance which makes 'hair' even more of a risk," said Torri with a grin.
Truth or Hair was the wizarding form of Truth or Dare. Truths were just questions you had to answer truthfully. But if you chose hair the person who asked you could do whatever they wanted to you hair. Usually you could fix your hair magically. usually!
"Marie, truth or hair?" Torri asked.
"Uhh, truth." Answered Marie looking uncomfortable.
"O.K., who do you like?" Torri questioned.
Being somewhat tan Marie's blush was hardly noticeable, but it was definitely there. "Uhhh. OMG! I don't want to tell!" Marie panicked.
"You have to tell us," said Torri in an irritated tone.
"This is really embarrassing!" Marie insisted.
"Come on! We're not going to tell anyone!" said Lily. She was getting bored.
"Alright. Sirius Black!"
"Really!" exclaimed Lily. "He doesn't really seem like your type."
"Yeah," agreed Torri, "you seem too conservative to like him!"
That was the only interesting confession. Everyone already knew Torri liked Don Artnoid, a Gryffindor 7th year. The majority of the questions were ones Torri and Marie asked each other and, although Lily ended up with purple tipped hair, she began to get upset and annoyed. Luckily, Torri asked her the next question. "Lils- truth or hair."
Lily decided on a truth. Torri asked her the usual. "So Lils, confess! Who do you have a crush on?" "No one!" claimed Lily. They pestered her about it for a while, but finally saw she was getting angry and gave up. Lily felt guilty lying to them and maybe this was why when they asked her if she'd rather date Severus Snape or James Potter she decided to go to bed.
In bed Lily couldn't sleep. She hadn't really lied. She didn't really like James. And besides, it wasn't her fault she couldn't trust them. She knew if she told the secret would get out somehow. Even still her sleep was fitful.
