A/N: Yay! The weekend! That means more chapters; I'm aiming to write at least 5 chapters this weekend. No promises! But I've been dying all day to write about the ball, Thanks again for all your reviews! Special thanks to Feenix Child {For doing a really good job at yelling at me to write more chapters} and Dr. Huff-Puff {For reading my reading all my chapters and keeping up with updates, I love reading you're reviews, they make my day} Thank you! Warning: Another crappy chapter.
"Oi, Red or Black?"
The hours flew by amazingly fast and before long it was only an hour and a half left until the ball actually begun. The girls were bouncing with excitement up in their dorms, fixing make-up, styling hair, choosing dress robes and making themselves look beautiful and glamorous.
Alexis and Emma took a few seconds examining the two dress robes Katie held in front of her. The red one had lacey frills around the lining adding a fashionable touch and the black one, plain and simple with silk material.
"Black" Alexis and Emma chanted together, grinning at their in tune response.
Katie shrugged and darted around the corner to get changed. Much to Emma's surprise, Alexis was applying make up, only small bits of it though. No one would of ever thought a tom boy like Alexis would be wearing make up. She applied her lipstick in the mirror, leaning close to the glass making sure she made it prefect, yet unnoticeable. She caught a glimpse of Emma staring at her in the mirror and quickly wound down the lipstick and snapped the top on. "Don't say a word to anyone"
Emma smiled and nodded in agreement. She didn't exactly want to go to this ball. A waste of time really, but she felt bad if she 'stood up' Jake after agreeing to go with him. So the decision was final, she would go. But what to wear?
Strolling over to her wardrobe causally, she flung opened the wooden doors to stand in front of a line of neatly hung up clothes, all belong to Lily. She browsed through the lot coming across two pairs for black school robes, some jeans piled neatly on the wardrobe floor, muggle tops (the kind she would normally wear) and then finally, the dress robes. Surprisingly, she had a selection of four to chose from. But she automatically fell in love with the long silky deep red dress robes. But was it too much?
"That's prefect, it'll go well with your hair" Alexis said, obviously spying on her as she went through her dress robes. Emma unhooked the coat hanger off the robes and held up against her body, staring down at what the dress looked like.
"I dunno, Isn't it a bit much?" Emma asked cautiously.
"Nah, its fine. Trust me. James would think you're perfect in a rubbish bag"
Emma blushed a slight pink, looking away quickly as she did so. Alexis noticed this but didn't say anything.
"Lexi! Lils! Help!"
Alexis and Emma looked up at Katie as she re-entered the room looking stunning in her black silky dress robes. She posed as if she was a top star model and blew kisses to her two member crowd. "Is this sexy or what?"
Alexis rolled her eyes while Emma laughed. She admitted, she did look very pretty and Remus was bound to love her. Emma took her own dress robes and made her way to the bathroom to get changed when Katie stopped her.
"My god girl, have you got make up on?"
"No" Emma said truthfully
"WHAT?! Come here you" She dragged the girl down and pretended to strap her down to the girl in front of the mirror. She grabbed Alexis's lipstick and desperately placed it on her pink lips while Alexis blushed her cheeks to bring out a rosemary colour in her cheekbones. Emma frowned, but since her friends weren't letting her leave without being pampered, she smiled and enjoyed the company of her newest best friends.
