Thanks to all my reviewers! =P
Lily Rowling Potter Ð Yeah, they did eat food, but I figured that it was a typical Sirius behaviour, so I didnÕt put it down! =)
Vonnie- Happy? I gave you an extra chapter! And for the fiftieth time, Sirius and Becka are NOT going to snog in the astronomy tower in the near future!!! =P (she said this to me at school...)
And if I donÕt put you down here, itÕs not that I donÕt appreciate the comments, but my brother is on the computer, and wonÕt let me get to my reviewers names!

Last Chapter Ending: ÔHey Guys, weÕd better get to the Bella Rouge beauty spa and book for tomorrow!Õ Arabella exclaimed after finishing her sundae.
ÔYeah, youÕre right! Hey guys, weÕll split the bill. HereÕs 4 galleons. WeÕve got to go!Õ And The Angels ran off.
ÔCan we keep the change?!Õ Sirius called after the four girls.
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
ÔOk, weÕve got you down for the goddess treatment, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tomorrow... Alright?Õ Ella asked the Angels. ÔYeah! Sounds good. WeÕll see you tomorrow then =PÕ Lily replied enthusiastically. ÔYes...See you tomorrow,Õ
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
The Marauders paid for their sundaes, then went up to ZonkoÕs. There was no point in wasting their opportunity to prank!
ÔAh, the marauders, I was wondering when IÕd see you again... I have a new series of Dungbombs to offer, would you like to see?Õ Mr Zonko approached the boys.
ÔOoh! Yes please!Õ Sirius replied enthusiastically. ÔFollow me...Õ
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
GodricÕs angels were walking around Hogsmeade, window-shopping. ÔOoh! This shop looks good! LetÕs have a look...Pwease?Õ Arabella begged her friends outside Collectables ÔrÕ us. Lily sighed. ÔAlright,Õ she mumbled as she trudged into the store.
Inside, was an elaborate shelving system, filled with collectable figurines of all sorts. There were muggle figures, moving figures, personality figures, even Ômake your own figurinesÕ kits.
Behind the counter was an old man, who had a hooked nose, dark eyes, and short grey hair.
ÔWhat can I interest you in?Õ He asked, approaching Lily. ÔWe were just looking,Õ she replied defiantly, before striding off to another part of the store.
ÔJust looking eh? Well, can I interest you in the newest figures we are offering? If you give us a photo of someone, we can make a small figure of them, bewitched to portray their feelings and personality.
ÔCool...Õ Becka mumbled. The man then retreated back to his chair, and let the girls look. Arabella decided to take the man up on his offer, and handed him a picture of Jason. (A/N did I mention that he was dating Arabella now?)
Becka went over to the animal figures and spotted two that took her fancy. There was a small, golden fox, and a large, bear-like dog, huddled close together, asleep. When she went to touch the soft foxÕs fur, the Dog stood up, and growled, as if to protect his friend. Becka was fascinated. She quickly scooped up the two figures, and bought them.
Lily went over to the people figures, and spotted something strange. There were two figures, dressed in scarlet, holding hands. The male figure had his arm draped around the female, and the two seemed really happy. The female had auburn hair, and the male had messy black hair and glasses. But what really drew her in, were the faces. They had an uncanny resemblance to *drum roll* Her and James!
Lily gasped. No one else could see this. She grabbed them, and ran to the counter. ÔAh, I see you like the figure of Godric Gryffindor, and his wife, Lady Lily. That will be 5 sickles please.Õ The old man behind the counter slurred.
Lily paid, then shoved them in her bag.
Frances went to the object figures, and saw one of the latest broomstick available.
Ô*gasp* ItÕs the Thunderbolt! ItÕs the best racing broom available to the general public!Õ She cried as she grabbed it. Becka overheard her.
ÔThunderbolts have nothing against the Ice Angel series!Õ She argued.
ÔIt depends on the rider!Õ Frances retaliated. ÔMy angel is the best broom for Quidditch! ItÕs perfect for Chasers, like me, and every other member of the team!Õ Becka cried.
Frances groaned. Both she and Becka had Ice angels, and there was no denying that it was brilliant for chasers. All of the Gryffindor quidditch team had commented on that.
ÔSpeaking of Quidditch... WhenÕs our next training session?Õ Becka asked Frances.
ÔJamie told us to come next Monday,Õ Frances said. ÔCool...Õ ÔWhoÕs the new captain, Becka?Õ Lily asked, cheerily. ÔOh, ItÕs Jamie, Jamie Wood...Õ
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
The Marauders left ZonkoÕs with a bag filled to the brim. Inside, they had several kinds of dungbombs, one that only dispersed itÕs smell if you asked it nicely, one that let off a kind of fog as it stunk up the corridor, the original kind, and one that was a ticking time bomb. The marauders could leave a room, placing a bomb under the desk. In a few minutes, the classroom would be filled with an awful stench, but the teachers couldnÕt blame any of the marauders.
ÔThese time-bombs will be great for potions!Õ James cried happily. ÔMmm...Õ James agreed.
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
The Angels, who had bought everything they needed, then left Hogsmeade, and went back to the common room, (thought you ought to know *author faints*)
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
The marauders were walking around Hogsmeade, when James noticed a little shop. ÔCollectables ÔrÕ us? What a weird name... Hey, LetÕs go have a look!Õ James exclaimed.
Peter stopped in his tracks. ÔN...n...no thanks... You go o...on without me...Õ He mumbled as he turned and ran.
ÔWhatÕs his problem?Õ Remus shrugged. The marauders entered the store, and started to look around. Sirius went to the animal section, and noticed two small figurines. (A/N lolz, just like Becka!)
There was a small, golden fox, playing with a large, bear-like dog... which looked strangely like SiriusÕ animungus form... He scooped it up, and bought it.
Remus went to the quidditch section, and saw the cutest thing. There was a small-scale model of a quidditch field, with players from Gryffindor and Slytherin. Remus picked it up, and bought it.
James went over to the people section, and saw a boy, in quidditch robes, with his arm draped around a young girl, with auburn hair. The boy had messy black hair, and Glasses. He looked strangely like James... but the girl... was it
ÔLily?Õ James muttered, picking the figure up. He went to the counter, and bought it.
ÔAhh... so you like Godric Gryffindor, and his Girlfriend, Lily Evan?Õ The man at the counter asked.
ÔJames nodded, then put the figure in his bag. He wanted answers.
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
Soon, all of the 5th years were back at the castle, after dinner out. The marauders were draped over chairs in the common room. GodricÕs angels were up in their dorm, talking about the ball. ÔWeÕd better get some sleep...Õ mumbled Becka, ÔCause weÕre gonna need our strength tomorrow...Õ
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
Lily was hurrying down the hall. She was late for Divination. ÔTrelawnyÕs gonna kill me...Õ she mumbled.
Suddenly, she collided with someone. She looked up to see James Potter staring back. Lily Stood up abruptly, as did James.
ÔWatch where youÕre going Potter,Õ Lily spat angrily. ÔMe? Why donÕt you Evans? You collided with me!Õ James retorted. ÔYou crashed into me!Õ Lily argued. James stepped forward, and Lily stepped back, into a cold, stone wall.
ÔIs that so?Õ James was so close, that Lily could feel his breath on her neck. Lily leaned in closer, and put her arms around his neck. ÔYes... it is,Õ
Their lips met, and Lily pushed harder. James was shocked, but soon pushed back. James moved his arms around LilyÕs waist. Neither wanted the moment to end.
After an age, both pulled back.
ÔWhat do you have now?Õ James asked. ÔDivination,Õ Lily gasped. ÔGood... it can wait,Õ he grinned, before he took her back into the embrace.
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
LilyÕs eyes opened abruptly.
ÔOh my God...Õ ~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
The angels woke the next morning to find Lily huddled in her wardrobe. ÔWhat happened?Õ Frances asked, rubbing her eyes. ÔI... I... had a b...b...bad d...d... dream!Õ Lily stuttered, before bursting into tears.
ÔWhat about?Õ Becka asked, walking over to her friend.
ÔJ...J...J...James P...P...P...Potter!Õ Lily sobbed. Becka hugged her, and Arabella sat up.
ÔLilz, it was just a dream... What did he do?Õ ÔHe snogged me!Õ The girls gasped.
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
It was a nice day in Hogsmeade. GodricÕs angels had gotten Lily up, and then went to the Bella Rouge Beauty Spa.
Once they had Ôsigned inÕ The girls went into a room and got ready. They were instructed to lie on a massage table each. As they did, as masseuse came in for each of them.
ÔRelax, soon all of your troubles will melt away...Õ
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
James woke up in a very good mood. He had another dream about Lily. This time, they had skipped a class, and snogged in a corridor. James grinned at the thought.
Sirius was also in a very good mood... though no one knew why. Remus was very tired, and tried to convince everyone that he needed 5 more minutes of sleep. James walked down the stairs, and into the common room. He sat down heavily on a lounge when Sirius ran down.
ÔHi James!!!Õ He cried. ÔEr... hi Sirius...Õ ÔItÕs the Ball today! But thatÕs not the only reason IÕm happy!!!Õ Sirius cried. ÔWhy else?Õ James asked. ÔWell... IÕm taking the girl that I have had the biggest crush on since 1st year...Õ Sirius grinned. All of the girls in the common room scowled. Even if Sirius was happy, he wasnÕt going with them, so it was stupid.
ÔRiiiiiiiight...Õ
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
Soon, it was 5:30, and everyone was getting ready for the ball. GodricÕs angels were up in their room, getting dressed, the spa did their makeup, and the Marauders were changing. (Sirius Black... in Lilac robes?! Now this I gotta see!!!)
ÔSirius! Calm down! Everything will be alright! You and Becka will have the best night!Õ James soothed.
ÔI hope... Hey guys! WeÕd better get going!Õ
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
ÔArgh! ItÕs 5:55 already! Where is she?!Õ Amos Diggory paced the entrance hall nervously.
ÒI hope she wonÕt stand me up...Ó He thought nervously. Amos looked up, and saw the marauders near the main stairs. Amos scowled. After a few more paces, he looked up again, and saw that they didnÕt have their dates with them... especially Sirius Black...
At that thought, Amos smiled. Soon Becka would be his again, and with her, heÕd earn back his reputation.
The marauders walked down the main stairs, and waited at the bottom. Soon, four dazzling girls caught their, and AmosÕ, eyes. Lily, Becka and Frances flashed their dates smiles. BeckaÕs faltered when she saw Amos. He grinned at her, and she resisted the temptation to give him the finger.
The girls walked elegantly down the stairs, and joined their dates. (A/N IÕm sorry, but I just canÕt get over the fact... Sirius in Lilac robes?!) Sirius kissed Becka on the cheek, and Amos flared red. ÔYou look like an Angel,Õ Sirius muttered in her ear. Becka blushed. ÔThank you,Õ she whispered back.
They all walked into the hall, and it had been changed greatly. Instead of 4 long tables, small ones, to seat 8 people, had replaced them. Arabella caught LilyÕs eye.
ÔGuys! Over here! We saved a table!!!Õ She cried, waving her hands. The girls smiled. ÔJust like Arabella,Õ they all thought. The six of them (minus that git peter, cause he had to wait for his date...who would wanna go with him anyway?!) walked over to the table, and sat down. The hall was elegantly decorated, with bunches of Holly, and mistletoe, silver, gold, red, green, blue and yellow tinsel, and a Christmas tree in every corner, decorated by the 7th years from each house.
It looked wonderful.
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
ÔJames... should we ask the girls to dance now?Õ Sirius whispered to his friend. ÔER...yeah... maybe we should...Õ
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
Sirius held out his hand to Becka, as Remus did to Frances, and James to an unenthusiastic Lily. ÔMay I have this dance?Õ They asked politely in Unison. Becka and Frances took their dates hands immediately, but Lily hesitated.
ÒWhat it I really am in love with James? WouldnÕt this night just make things worse?Ó She thought.
ÒGod she looks hot tonight...Ó James thought (*author shrugs*)
ÒOne dance... it canÕt hurt...Ó Lily took JamesÕ hand, and they walked onto the dance floor.
The dance was a slow waltz, much to LilyÕs dismay. ÒArgh! IÕm gonna die!!!Ó She thought angrily.
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
Soon the dance was over, and Lily was the first one back in her seat. Becka and Frances followed suit. Sirius and James were hungry. The music that played next, was slightly faster, but still a waltzy type of music.
Amos walked up to Becka, and held out his hand. ÔMay I have this dance?Õ He Grinned. Becka Frowned. ÔThe day Hell freezes over...Õ She replied icily. Amos frowned. He grabbed Becka by the arm, and pulled her onto the dance floor.
ÔListen here. YouÕre gonna dance with me, and like it. Got it? And if you donÕt, this time, I wonÕt let you off as easily...Õ Amos muttered into her ear. Becka kneed him in the groin.
Amos reliquised his grip, and Becka walked back to her table. Unfortunately, Amos followed her. ÔGet back here bitch... IÕm not finished with you,Õ Amos slapped her across the face. Sirius, who was over at the food table, left his plate, and ran over to help Becka. This time, however, Sirius did a James. He tapped Amos on the shoulder, and Decked him. (OMG! Sirius left food to help his date?! Whoa! I must not be thinking straight today!!! =P)
Becka joined in the fun, and kicked him again. ÔI would NEVER become your girlfriend again. Accept it. I found someone better who actually cares about me!Õ She cried angrily.
Sirius hugged her. ÔYou alright?Õ He sat her on his knee. ÔI am now,Õ she grinned, threw her arms around his shoulders, and kissed him.
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
Lily and James were getting into another argument. ÔWas not!Õ ÔWas too!Õ ÔWas not!Õ ÔWas too!Õ ÔWas not!Õ ÔWas too!Õ ÔWAS NOT!Õ Lily hollered. ÔWAS TOO!Õ James bellowed ÔWas What?Õ Sirius, Becka Frances, and Remus walked over to the food table. ÔJames says that I deliberately splashed potato salad on him... but it was an accident!Õ Lily protested angrily. ÔWas not!Õ James cried. ÔWas too!!!Õ Lily replied. Becka held up her hands.
ÔCalm down! Maybe it was an accident, or maybe it wasnÕt, but please donÕt argue about it!Õ Lily poked her tongue out at James.
ÔFine!Õ she picked up her food, and sat back at the table. James picked up his food, and sat on the opposite side of the table to lily, so he could glare at her.
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
Soon it was time for the photoÕs to be taken. It went from 4th year up, and in alphabetical order, by the boyÕs names. When the fifth years were called, Sirius and Becka went up first (Black). Shortly after, Jason and Arabella went up, (Bundaberg) then, Remus and Frances, (Lupin), And the last couple from their group, James and Lily (Potter)
Lily and James were less than ecstatic about having their photo taken, but complied anyway.
Lily said she needed something to throw darts at.
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
Soon, the night was over, and everyone had experienced a great time... everyone except for Lily and James, that is.
James was upset that his new robes had a food stain on them,
AndÉ
Lily was angry that people had proof she went to the Yule ball with James... Damn, she couldnÕt deny it if asked...
Before she went to bed, though, Lily looked at the figurine she had purchased in Hogsmeade of Godric and Lily Gryffindor.
They had their backs turned from one another, and Godric looked as though he had reminants of potato salad on his new robes... just like James.
And Lily... she looked fairly angry with Godric, as though he had accused her of spilling the salad on him... just like Lily (Evans). Lily gasped.
ÔThis doesnÕt mean anything... does it?

~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
ÔHappy Vonnie?Õ Becka asked impatiently. ÔYeah... very!Õ Vonnie grinned.
ÔMake Becka and Sirius snog in the astronomy tower next!Õ Vonnie exclaimed.
ÔARGH!!! They kissed! No snogging... yet!!!!!!Õ Becka stormed off to English. Vonnie grinned.
ÔShe is SO gonna make them snog...Õ
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
*in English*
ÔKira! You go over, and try to find out some of the opposing teamÕs debating points!Õ ÔNo! DonÕt!Õ Bettina cried. Kira got up, and ÔsnuckÕ over to the opposing teamÕs table.
ÔDo you think theyÕre gonna give her their points?Õ Becka asked Bettina. ÔNope... anyway, letÕs keep brainstorming... we wanna win this debate!Õ
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
*Later in Design and Technology*
ÔBecka... Finish your story now!!!Õ Vonnie cried happily. ÔNot yet... itÕs at home on my laptop... canÕt finish it yet,Õ Becka mumbles, watching Kira pretend to be edwardo.
*Turkish march sounds in the background* *Becka pulls out her mobile* ÔHmph! The message is from Bhagya...Õ She groans.
ÔOoh! What does it say?Õ Vonnie cries, clapping her hands. ÔGuess what?! I got an Oscar!Õ Becka mumbles.
ÔDidnÕt you buy that for her from movie world?Õ Vonnie asks. ÔYa... me sleep now... nighty night...Õ
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
*earlier, at Netball practice during lunch time* ÔBecka! Catch the ball!Õ Karima and Elena yell. ÔHey! IÕm trying! DonÕt throw it so high! IÕm not quite tall enough!Õ *ball goes out*
ÔYeah! Go Rebecca! You rock!!Õ Christina calls sarcastically, as her team get the ball. ÔEh Shut up!Õ
*later, when Becka scores a goal* ÔHey, time to bring out our team motto, eh?Õ Christina gives Becka the finger.
ÔGet stuffed Christina!Õ
ÔWhOoO! Our team RoX!!!Õ Bhagya calls happily. *Renee throws the ball at her, and it hits Bhagya in the back*
ÔOh... whoops...Õ Renee blushes. The jumper team (Christina, Bhagya, Monique and Alison) Frown at her.
ÔBags! Are you alright?Õ Becka calls to her friend. ÔIÕm fine!Õ Bhagya, calls back, and walks down to her position.
*the end lunch bell rings* Bhagya and Becka walk out together.
ÔWhat you got now?Õ Bhagya asks Becka.
ÔComputing in D&T... itÕs boring...Õ Becka groans. ÔYeah... weÕve already done it... see you tomorrow!Õ Bhagya calls. ÔYeah... Bye!Õ

(A/N I added a short story in for you! ItÕs a typical Wednesday at my school...and... er... yeah... review! =P)
*Princess Potter runs off to have her shower and go to bed before her mum yells at her for staying up late...*
=P =) =P
Lily Rowling Potter Ð Yeah, they did eat food, but I figured that it was a typical Sirius behaviour, so I didnÕt put it down! =)
Vonnie- Happy? I gave you an extra chapter! And for the fiftieth time, Sirius and Becka are NOT going to snog in the astronomy tower in the near future!!! =P (she said this to me at school...)

ÔWhat about?Õ Becka asked, walking over to her friend.
ÔJ...J...J...James P...P...P...Potter!Õ Lily sobbed. Becka hugged her, and Arabella sat up.
ÔLilz, it was just a dream... What did he do?Õ ÔHe snogged me!Õ The girls gasped.

It was a nice day in Hogsmeade. GodricÕs angels had gotten Lily up, and then went to the Bella Rouge Beauty Spa.
Once they had Ôsigned inÕ The girls went into a room and got ready. They were instructed to lie on a massage table each. As they did, as masseuse came in for each of them.
ÔRelax, soon all of your troubles will melt away...Õ
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
James woke up in a very good mood. He had another dream about Lily. This time, they had skipped a class, and snogged in a corridor. James grinned at the thought.
Sirius was also in a very good mood... though no one knew why. Remus was very tired, and tried to convince everyone that he needed 5 more minutes of sleep. James walked down the stairs, and into the common room. He sat down heavily on a lounge when Sirius ran down.
ÔHi James!!!Õ He cried. ÔEr... hi Sirius...Õ ÔItÕs the Ball today! But thatÕs not the only reason IÕm happy!!!Õ Sirius cried. ÔWhy else?Õ James asked. ÔWell... IÕm taking the girl that I have had the biggest crush on since 1st year...Õ Sirius grinned. All of the girls in the common room scowled. Even if Sirius was happy, he wasnÕt going with them, so it was stupid.
ÔRiiiiiiiight...Õ
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
Soon, it was 5:30, and everyone was getting ready for the ball. GodricÕs angels were up in their room, getting dressed, the spa did their makeup, and the Marauders were changing. (Sirius Black... in Lilac robes?! Now this I gotta see!!!)
ÔSirius! Calm down! Everything will be alright! You and Becka will have the best night!Õ James soothed.
ÔI hope... Hey guys! WeÕd better get going!Õ
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
ÔArgh! ItÕs 5:55 already! Where is she?!Õ Amos Diggory paced the entrance hall nervously.
ÒI hope she wonÕt stand me up...Ó He thought nervously. Amos looked up, and saw the marauders near the main stairs. Amos scowled. After a few more paces, he looked up again, and saw that they didnÕt have their dates with them... especially Sirius Black...
At that thought, Amos smiled. Soon Becka would be his again, and with her, heÕd earn back his reputation.
The marauders walked down the main stairs, and waited at the bottom. Soon, four dazzling girls caught their, and AmosÕ, eyes. Lily, Becka and Frances flashed their dates smiles. BeckaÕs faltered when she saw Amos. He grinned at her, and she resisted the temptation to give him the finger.
The girls walked elegantly down the stairs, and joined their dates. (A/N IÕm sorry, but I just canÕt get over the fact... Sirius in Lilac robes?!) Sirius kissed Becka on the cheek, and Amos flared red. ÔYou look like an Angel,Õ Sirius muttered in her ear. Becka blushed. ÔThank you,Õ she whispered back.
They all walked into the hall, and it had been changed greatly. Instead of 4 long tables, small ones, to seat 8 people, had replaced them. Arabella caught LilyÕs eye.
ÔGuys! Over here! We saved a table!!!Õ She cried, waving her hands. The girls smiled. ÔJust like Arabella,Õ they all thought. The six of them (minus that git peter, cause he had to wait for his date...who would wanna go with him anyway?!) walked over to the table, and sat down. The hall was elegantly decorated, with bunches of Holly, and mistletoe, silver, gold, red, green, blue and yellow tinsel, and a Christmas tree in every corner, decorated by the 7th years from each house.
It looked wonderful.

ÔJames... should we ask the girls to dance now?Õ Sirius whispered to his friend. ÔER...yeah... maybe we should...Õ
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
Sirius held out his hand to Becka, as Remus did to Frances, and James to an unenthusiastic Lily. ÔMay I have this dance?Õ They asked politely in Unison. Becka and Frances took their dates hands immediately, but Lily hesitated.
ÒWhat it I really am in love with James? WouldnÕt this night just make things worse?Ó She thought.
ÒGod she looks hot tonight...Ó James thought (*author shrugs*)
ÒOne dance... it canÕt hurt...Ó Lily took JamesÕ hand, and they walked onto the dance floor.
The dance was a slow waltz, much to LilyÕs dismay. ÒArgh! IÕm gonna die!!!Ó She thought angrily.
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
Soon the dance was over, and Lily was the first one back in her seat. Becka and Frances followed suit. Sirius and James were hungry. The music that played next, was slightly faster, but still a waltzy type of music.
Amos walked up to Becka, and held out his hand. ÔMay I have this dance?Õ He Grinned. Becka Frowned. ÔThe day Hell freezes over...Õ She replied icily. Amos frowned. He grabbed Becka by the arm, and pulled her onto the dance floor.
ÔListen here. YouÕre gonna dance with me, and like it. Got it? And if you donÕt, this time, I wonÕt let you off as easily...Õ Amos muttered into her ear. Becka kneed him in the groin.
Amos reliquised his grip, and Becka walked back to her table. Unfortunately, Amos followed her. ÔGet back here bitch... IÕm not finished with you,Õ Amos slapped her across the face. Sirius, who was over at the food table, left his plate, and ran over to help Becka. This time, however, Sirius did a James. He tapped Amos on the shoulder, and Decked him. (OMG! Sirius left food to help his date?! Whoa! I must not be thinking straight today!!! =P)
Becka joined in the fun, and kicked him again. ÔI would NEVER become your girlfriend again. Accept it. I found someone better who actually cares about me!Õ She cried angrily.
Sirius hugged her. ÔYou alright?Õ He sat her on his knee. ÔI am now,Õ she grinned, threw her arms around his shoulders, and kissed him.

Lily and James were getting into another argument. ÔWas not!Õ ÔWas too!Õ ÔWas not!Õ ÔWas too!Õ ÔWas not!Õ ÔWas too!Õ ÔWAS NOT!Õ Lily hollered. ÔWAS TOO!Õ James bellowed ÔWas What?Õ Sirius, Becka Frances, and Remus walked over to the food table. ÔJames says that I deliberately splashed potato salad on him... but it was an accident!Õ Lily protested angrily. ÔWas not!Õ James cried. ÔWas too!!!Õ Lily replied. Becka held up her hands.
ÔCalm down! Maybe it was an accident, or maybe it wasnÕt, but please donÕt argue about it!Õ Lily poked her tongue out at James.
ÔFine!Õ she picked up her food, and sat back at the table. James picked up his food, and sat on the opposite side of the table to lily, so he could glare at her.

Soon it was time for the photoÕs to be taken. It went from 4th year up, and in alphabetical order, by the boyÕs names. When the fifth years were called, Sirius and Becka went up first (Black). Shortly after, Jason and Arabella went up, (Bundaberg) then, Remus and Frances, (Lupin), And the last couple from their group, James and Lily (Potter)
Lily and James were less than ecstatic about having their photo taken, but complied anyway.
Lily said she needed something to throw darts at.
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
Soon, the night was over, and everyone had experienced a great time... everyone except for Lily and James, that is.
James was upset that his new robes had a food stain on them,
AndÉ
Lily was angry that people had proof she went to the Yule ball with James... Damn, she couldnÕt deny it if asked...
Before she went to bed, though, Lily looked at the figurine she had purchased in Hogsmeade of Godric and Lily Gryffindor.
They had their backs turned from one another, and Godric looked as though he had reminants of potato salad on his new robes... just like James.
And Lily... she looked fairly angry with Godric, as though he had accused her of spilling the salad on him... just like Lily (Evans). Lily gasped.
ÔThis doesnÕt mean anything... does it?

ÔHappy Vonnie?Õ Becka asked impatiently. ÔYeah... very!Õ Vonnie grinned.
ÔMake Becka and Sirius snog in the astronomy tower next!Õ Vonnie exclaimed.
ÔARGH!!! They kissed! No snogging... yet!!!!!!Õ Becka stormed off to English. Vonnie grinned.
ÔShe is SO gonna make them snog...Õ

*in English*
ÔKira! You go over, and try to find out some of the opposing teamÕs debating points!Õ ÔNo! DonÕt!Õ Bettina cried. Kira got up, and ÔsnuckÕ over to the opposing teamÕs table.
ÔDo you think theyÕre gonna give her their points?Õ Becka asked Bettina. ÔNope... anyway, letÕs keep brainstorming... we wanna win this debate!Õ

ÔBecka... Finish your story now!!!Õ Vonnie cried happily. ÔNot yet... itÕs at home on my laptop... canÕt finish it yet,Õ Becka mumbles, watching Kira pretend to be edwardo.
*Turkish march sounds in the background* *Becka pulls out her mobile* ÔHmph! The message is from Bhagya...Õ She groans.
ÔOoh! What does it say?Õ Vonnie cries, clapping her hands. ÔGuess what?! I got an Oscar!Õ Becka mumbles.
ÔDidnÕt you buy that for her from movie world?Õ Vonnie asks. ÔYa... me sleep now... nighty night...Õ

*earlier, at Netball practice during lunch time* ÔBecka! Catch the ball!Õ Karima and Elena yell. ÔHey! IÕm trying! DonÕt throw it so high! IÕm not quite tall enough!Õ *ball goes out*
ÔYeah! Go Rebecca! You rock!!Õ Christina calls sarcastically, as her team get the ball. ÔEh Shut up!Õ
*later, when Becka scores a goal* ÔHey, time to bring out our team motto, eh?Õ Christina gives Becka the finger.
ÔGet stuffed Christina!Õ
ÔWhOoO! Our team RoX!!!Õ Bhagya calls happily. *Renee throws the ball at her, and it hits Bhagya in the back*
ÔOh... whoops...Õ Renee blushes. The jumper team (Christina, Bhagya, Monique and Alison) Frown at her.
ÔBags! Are you alright?Õ Becka calls to her friend. ÔIÕm fine!Õ Bhagya, calls back, and walks down to her position.
*the end lunch bell rings* Bhagya and Becka walk out together.
ÔWhat you got now?Õ Bhagya asks Becka.
ÔComputing in D&T... itÕs boring...Õ Becka groans. ÔYeah... weÕve already done it... see you tomorrow!Õ Bhagya calls. ÔYeah... Bye!Õ
