AN: School starts up again on Tuesday, so I will try as hard as possible to
get a few chapters typed and saved so that it won't be forever and a day
for you all. As annoying as it is on me to deal with it, I take it
sometimes it's hard for the readers to deal with an author that doesn't
update (Heck, I know it is). I should be able to get one or two typed up my
Mon. and then I can have them up at random points in
time.http://www.deardiary.net/show/diaries/71530/
For update on how goes the story, go there. LoL.
Chapter 11
Hey,
I got I the/I perfect dress. I won't say anything about it here, for fear of someone finding it. I want it to be a complete surprise. Maybe, I MAYBE/I I'll let Siri look at it.definitely maybe though. I can't have people knowing what I'm going to wear. Did I just say that? That is something I would never expect to some out of me. I've never been so excited about a dance before.. Could it be the person that I'm going with? I think so.
Well, I will say the color, but only here and only to Siri. It's the perfect shade of blue. It matches my eyes perfectly, as well as Siri's, so I think that will be wonderful to see. In pictures at least. Breaks over, to Transfiguration I go.Animagus is a form of transfiguration.Maybe I should pay special attention in that class, I sill gotta convince Siri that I can become and Animagi with him.

Cayte rushed to Transfiguration, just making it to her seat when the bell rang. "Whew," she sighed, leaning onto Sirius in a mock faint. The class laughed and Sirius put his arm around her. "What were you running from?" he whispered into her ear. "Writing, time got away from me," she said.
Sirius kept whispering things, and as much as Cayte wanted to listen and flirt and do those types of things, she remembered what she had written about Transfiguration and Animagi. "Sirius, I'm trying to hear what she's saying," Cayte whispered, sounding a tad bit annoyed. Sirius got worried, was Cayte still mad at him for his not wanting her to become an Animagi with him. He loved the thought, cherished it really, but it just wasn't right. It would be like guys night out with a girl tagging along. Not gonna happen. She can't still be mad, can she?
The Transfiguration lesson went on that way, Cayte listening intently, hoping for some clue as to how to become an Animagus, and Sirius wondering how to convince Cayte not to become one.
After the class was over, Lily and Cayte went off one way, while the Marauders went another.
~*~
The days until the dance were passing very quickly and before anyone knew it, it was the day before Halloween. A Thursday that seemed like it passed slower than a one legged turtle (AN: wow.interesting analogy), but alas it was dinnertime and Dumbledore was standing up to make an announcement.
"Students and Teachers, tomorrow is the Halloween Dance that we have all been looking forward to. I trust that you cannot wait? Well, I know you are all very much looking forward to going to classes and such tomorrow, but seeing as the occasion calls for you all to dress up, I am calling off classes." There was a loud uproar from the students, once they quieted down, Dumbledore continued. "I do this mainly because so many of you students, especially the female half of you, would say that it was not fair of me to call up such an event on a school day. You will all have to day to do the necessary things to prepare for the night. Students may visit Hogsmead to prepare, though only with special permission from your Head of House. Thank you." No one could hear a thing except for noisy chatter going on between the students. Several stood up to go owl in for appointments, others just to go to their dormitories. Lily and Cayte were some who got up to go to a different place.
~*~
Cayte had happened upon the secret room in Hogwarts a couple of months ago, but had yet to tell anyone but Lily about it. She had been heading towards the front doors to go to the lake, when she stumbled and fell. One of the paintings called out to her, asking if she were ok, she then began a conversation with it and the painting invited her in. At first Cayte was startled but then the painting had said that it was just a secret hide out, located inside the painting. Cayte said she would go, and the painting told her what to say.
Now Cayte and Lily often disappeared there to discuss matters that they didn't want someone else over hearing. They came here especially in the time of Ashley, and now they were thinking of telling Melanie about it, they liked her, and were glad Remus had found someone bearable.
"I can't wait to see what you guys think when you see the dress," Cayte said, walking up to the painting on the main level. "Semigro postis," Cayte said, and they watched as the painting literally opened up for them, just as a door would had they said it to that, then as the opening grew bigger so that they could both walk inside.
The room was as big as one of the dorms, with a fireplace, and an intricate dome ceiling that was carved with various pictures and shapes.
"Then why don't you just show it to us now?" Lily asked anxiously, sitting down in one of the soft arm chairs, and lighting a fire in the fireplace.
"Because, I want it to be a surprise," Cayte said, she almost let it slip that she and Sirius were going together but she caught herself before she mentioned it.
"Oh come on, you aren't even going with anyone, why does it matter what dress you wear, no one has to match it," Lily said, rolling her eyes at the pitiful idea of not letting others know what you wore.
"Yeah, but you aren't letting anyone know except for Melanie and I, and that's only because we were with you when you got it."
"That's different. Don't ask how, but trust me it is."
"How?"
"I told you not to ask, and I have no idea.."
The girls both fell into a fit of laughter, they fell out of their chairs and started to roll on the ground. Then they realized how silly they were being and it got even worse. Soon they were interrupted by the familiar voice of the painting, "You must quiet down, dearies, someone will hear you!" When that was said, they quieted down and climbed into their chairs. They sat and talked for awhile about the day to come and what they would do. They were planning on doing each other's hair, as well as Melanie's, and they would each do their own make up. Before they knew it, it was time they left and went to the commons room so it didn't seem too suspicious.
~*~
In the commons room, they found that after they had left, many of the teachers didn't like Dumbledore's idea, and wanted to hold class, but (thankfully!) Dumbledore insisted. Sirius gave Cayte a certain look that told her he needed to talk to her privately. She told Lily she was running up to her trunk to get a book, hoping Sirius would get the clue to follow. He did, and told the rest of the group that he was going to bed early, and he planned on sleeping late (he especially pointed this out to James, who had a tendency to get him- as well as the rest of the boys- up at the crack of dawn). He ran up the staircase, and found Cayte waiting just before the girls dorm.
Sirius made a sweeping motion with his hand, suggesting that they go in to talk, but Cayte shook her head. 'The place is crawling with dresses and things that he should definitely not see.Sirius looking at all of our underclothes.'. Sirius then made another motion with his hand, telling her to follow him. Soon they were in front of the boys dorms. Sirius walked in and towards his four-poster, but Cayte remained outside the door. She had never been in her before, and she had never really thought she'd enter. Sirius looked at her, stood up and walked to the door.
"What? You never questioned my going in your dorms," he said, picking her up and carrying her to a chair. She laughed into his shoulder. It was just like him to do something like that to get what he wanted without realizing how strangely romantic it seemed to her.
"What's up?" Cayte asked, still laughing.
"I wanted to know if I could borrow your.. er.. what's it called? CD player? With the Greatest hits of Sting & the police CD."
Cayte gave him a puzzled look. Why was he suddenly taking interest in Sting, * and the police*? "Yeah, I guess. You have to give it back to me tommorow though, the girls and I will need some form of entertainment while we get ready," Cayte got up and headed towards the door. Sirius followed, but stopped right before the doorway to the girls dorms, she hadn't wanted him in there before, she wouldn't now. Cayte re appeared in the doorway with the CD player and CD. "Here, have fun.?" Sirius laughed, then made sure that no one was looking, and kissed her on her cheek.
Cayte giggled and blushed. "What have you never been kissed before or something?" Sirius asked. At that Cayte looked at her feet and, though it didn't seem possible, turned a brighter shade of red. "Oh my God, you really haven't? Wow," Sirius laughed, and Cayte got mad. "Don't make fun of me 'cause I'm sixteen and I've never been kissed before!" she said.
"Hey, I wasn't, it's just that I've never been someone's 'first kiss' before. IF you can call that a kiss," he trailed off. He smiled at her and said good night and headed up to his dorms.
Cayte started picking up the dorm room, putting 'unmentionables' away, and folding clothes, hiding dresses, and other things to make the room look like it was a room. A knock came on the door. "Come in," Cayte called. Sirius walked in with a confused look on his face. "Umm.How does this thing work?"
END FOR NOW! Sorry, I'm just having the worst trouble. I have the feeling that, like my friends, school seems to be an inspiration to me when it comes down to it. I just can't get out the motivation to get the story going. Next chappy is the dance, so it might be Sunday or so before it comes out. I never got it typed up due to the above reasons. Sorry if some of this chappy sounds stupid, or is confusing, email me if it does. In particular, I'd appreciate it if Ciria would email me. Just wanna chat so-to-speak. The email is on my bio but I'll list it again (beccablack57@yahoo.com). There you are now EMAIL ME!!!! REVIEW!!!! I have realized recently that there was
A~ no disclaimer, that has been added to chapter one, if you want you can read it but its very boring.
B~ CD players etc. most likely weren't around in 1976..oh well, its fan fic.
