"I don't like that one, if you ask me" said a voice from the doorway that
was way to deep to be a girl's. Gabrielle whipped around, her long hair
whipped into the air, and the dress followed her movement as well.
"How did you get up the stairs?" she asked. James held up his broom that he
was holding behind his back. She scowled at him, trying to hide her
happiness to see him. She never liked being mushy. But at after scolding
him she ended up laughing at James anyways. "Wait. Were you here the whole
time?" she asked, her ears going red. He shook his head. She looked for
any clue to if he was lying or not.
Jamie and Shannon stormed into the room. They were talking to Gabrielle,
but didn't look at her. They had the air of two important businesswomen
with too much to do, or even wound up toys. They walked around the room
quickly. They pulled out makeup, jewelry and their costumes, not even
stopping to teach a breath. Shannon called the washroom before Jamie had
the chance to and ran into it with her towels. Jamie unwound and looked
around the room at Gabrielle.
"J-James?" she asked, not believing her eyes.
"Yep." He said.
"How did you get in here?" she said.
"I flew."
"Oh." She said, and then waking up she said. "Shannon is going to kill you for being in here. Especially when she comes out wearing a towel" laughing slightly. James didn't seem like he would mind that, he went and sat on Gabrielle's bed. Gabrielle put her arms on her hips. How am I going to change? She walked to her bed and took the cream one and asked James what he thought. "You have to try it on first," he said playfully. Gabrielle scowled him and went a bit red at the same time (o0o0o a combo!) She held the dress with both hands, still looking at him, then when she heard Shannon come out of the washroom and felt a wave of hot evaporated-water-air from her shower. She took one of her hands and quickly closed the white curtain on her four-poster bed over James, and whipped around to face Shannon. James was too surprised to make a sound, thankfully. Gabrielle held the ends of the curtains in her hands to keep James from popping his head out of it.
"Hey Shannon." She said, trying to act natural.
"Hi Gabby." Shannon said curiously, didn't I say hello earlier? Shannon thought to herself. Shannon went back into the washroom to change and came back in her powder blue fairy costume. When she came out she screeched horribly, pointing at the far end of Gabrielle's bed. James was standing there. Gabrielle and Jamie prepared for the worst. Shannon threw a book at James out of anger, which he caught in his hands. "What are you doing here?" she shouted at him. Gabrielle ran up to her and covered her mouth so the girls in the other rooms wouldn't hear. She told her patiently and quietly, "Shan, he didn't see anything he was on my bed the whole time" she said, noticing that what she said didn't sound the greatest. Shannon gave her a look. "Please don't over react. Please. Please. please." She said pleading. Gabrielle gave Shannon her best puppy dogface. Her eyes were wide open and she tried looking her cutest. She let go of Shannon and Shannon began breathing in and out deeply. Then she stopped, relaxed, and went to the bathroom to put on her makeup. Jamie went after her, smiling at Gabrielle and James. Gabrielle, still holding the cream colored dress, went to the washroom to change. She came out in the dress. When she came out, James was sitting on her bed again. When he saw her he rested his chin on his hand, looking like he was thinking hard, and making it seem this was an incredibly hard decision. Gabrielle didn't move, she looked at James; He stood up and walked towards her. He took her hand and made her twirl around. She rolled her eyes first, but did it nonetheless. "You know." He said after Gabrielle finished twirling, and James let go of her hand. "I think I like this dress."
"You think?" Gabrielle said, raising her eyebrow. It was either he liked it or he didn't.
"Yes, I think so."
"hmmmm" Gabrielle said, going to the mirror. The dress was so long she had to hold it up with her hands in order to walk. "I guess so. Maybe I should ask you for help with my clothing more often" she joked. James laughed.
"I better go before everyone starts looking for me. Think of what Shannon would do when the others would come in here too." He kissed Gabrielle quickly, and walked out of the room. Gabrielle smiled and watched him leave. Then she went to the washroom and sat beside Jamie, who was sitting in front of the washroom mirror, and in front of the counter on a stool. Shannon was sitting on one and now Gabrielle was too. They all started talking about how Shannon and Jamie had been listening in on what Gabrielle and James were saying a moment ago. Gabrielle was made up and ready. Her hair was curled slightly and she had a few braids in her hair, keeping her hair out of her face and making a spot for her tiara to rest on. Gabrielle was exited and scared at the same time. She kept telling herself it will be all right. It'll be All right. She remembered that James, Sirius and she had to go to the ballroom early to set up. She left the dorm room, telling Shannon and Jamie that she'll see them later.
"Yep." He said.
"How did you get in here?" she said.
"I flew."
"Oh." She said, and then waking up she said. "Shannon is going to kill you for being in here. Especially when she comes out wearing a towel" laughing slightly.
