A/N: I've promised to make chapters A LOT more longer {Thank Feenix Child}, so this one will be quite a long one, Enjoy! The drama shall begin now...
Excitement buzzed through the halls as the girls made their way down the corridor that lead to the large wooden oak swing open doors that opened the Great Hall. Emma was satisfied with her looks, after both Alexis and Emma swearing she looked stunning. Her deep long red hair was neatly pulled up onto her head with fashion, with the odd strands of hair falling beside her face. Matching red eye shadow that dashed up her eyelids with the same rosemary colour blush blended into her cheeks. Her lips, also blood red, mixing nicely with her snow white skin. The features on her face were most definitely attractive. As she strolled along side her friends, her deep red strapless dress followed behind her, not finding it difficult to walk on high heels, unlike Alexis. Alexis had chosen an ocean water blue coloured dress after the battle with Katie how she refused to let her go to the ball in jeans and a top. Katie grabbed Emma arm and leant close to her as they approached the doors.
"How exciting!" Katie said in a sort of high pitched voice. She glanced frantically around at the students waiting for their dates at the doors. "Where are they?"
"And I thought us girls had to be fashionable late" Alexis grinned, noticing none of the Marauders had arrived yet. The trio of girls stood in a small huddled circle, not far from the doors awaiting the boys to arrive.
Katie and Alexis got into another argument straight away about Alexis's hair if it was too over done or now. Katie loved it but Alexis thought it was way too much for the ball. Emma, ignoring her friends, scanned other student's faces to see if she recognized anyone. Her green eyes stopped on the dull and depressing face of Severus...Ashley. Surprised to see her at the ball, she wondered if she was able to get a date. As the same position as Kiara, she also wondered if she wanted to go with someone the same sex as her...after all, Severus wasn't exactly the most popular/best looking male in the school.

"Come ON! We're already 10 bloody minutes late!"
"Blame Andrew, he flooded the bath room"
"I forgot I left the tap on..."
"Dudes, my shirt won't tuck in!"
"Forget it; Fix it when we get there"
The four Marauders skidded down the halls of Hogwarts, running desperately down empty corridors and jumping steps down the stairs. Trust these four boys to be late for their dates. Jake couldn't help but feel ashamed he had kept Emma waiting for him, though he had to keep telling himself it wasn't his fault. After all, why was he so worried over what Emma thought of him?
"Almost there!" Scott puffed as they slowed to a jog as they reached the hall that lead to the Great Hall.
Kiara was hanging behind the group, desperately trying to tuck her white shirt into her black pants. Though she wasn't doing a great job of it, her top buttons were still undone and her hair was as messy as it would have been any day. Jake smiled at her lack of attempt to scrub up for the evening.
The group slowed to a stop as they reached the oak doors that stood slightly open for other students to slip in and out of. Spotting their dates to one side of the hall, Jake and Scott went to greet their dates while Kiara stood lazily with Andrew, waiting for Alexis to approach her.
Jake was quite amazed at how...beautiful...Emma looked this evening. He normally wouldn't have noticed this, not being attracted to her in any way. But since his character was, he had to act like he was interested in her. Smiling politely, he nodded in greeting and lifted his hand to scratch the back of his neck nervously. "You look...nice"
"I know you don't mean that" Emma smiled, taking his arm lightly as she drove him towards the doors, following Katie and Scott, looking very pleased together.
Jake shrugged at his poor attempt to compliment her. Little did she know, he meant it more than anything.
Alexis stood fed up with staring at Kiara, waiting for her to walk over to her as any other male would have done so. Alexis rolled her dark brown eyes at his rude behavior, she stomped over to him, stumbling slightly on her high heels, her anger rising when Kiara sniggered as she did so.
"Remember this was a dare" she muttered bitterly as she took her arm like every other couple had done so and walked with her, leaning on Kiara slightly for support in her lack of stable walking.
"I didn't need reminding" Kiara answered back clearly, trying to hide the smile slipping onto her lips. Andrew trotted behind them, amazed at all the students in one place at one time.
The Great Hall was beautifully decorated, with orange pumpkin lanterns hovering about 20 feet above the student's heads on the dance floor. The four house tables wore now no where to be seen and the obvious dance floor spaces was in its replacement. Candles lit the room, giving off a bright warm welcoming to everyone who had attended. Right at the front of the hall, above the staff chairs was a large banner with the words "HAPPY HALLOWEEN"
It looked like most of the school had attended the ball. The hall was flooded with different coloured dresses the females had nicely dressed in for the evening, and the large mass amount of black that lurked amongst them of the males dress robes.
"I must say..." Scott said to Katie as their eyes gazed around the hall. "You do look lovely this evening"
Katie blushed and smiled, obviously very flattered, unlike Emma. Something haunted all them that tonight weren't exactly going to be the pleasant night they all expected...
A/N: How's that? Told you I would make it longer! Its 11:51PM and I'm on a role baby! goes to write another chapter
