So, we near the dance...OH YEAH, and, I changed the chapter titles once again. The oddness and random lyrics just weren't what I wanted, so I picked a song that I thought fit fantastically, and used THOSE lyrics, in order from the beginning of the song as chapter names. See if you can guess the song title and artist. And, if you can, tell me what you think of the song.
Chapter 23
Saturday's atmosphere was thick with excitement and anticipation as the students congregated in the Great Hall, waiting as patiently as they could for Filch to check them all off on the long list of students with permission to enter Hogsmeade. The Odds, Harry, Ron, and Hermione were all standing together, slowly edging to the front of the line.
"I WONDER IF THEY'LL HAVE A LEMON SHIRT?" said Bita excitedly.
"Yeah, and maybe they'll have them in lemon sizes so you can buy one for all of the lemons," said Rachelle.
"YEAH!" said Bita.
"Don't encourage her!" said Tiffany in a frustrated way. "Bita…have you heard from the lemons lately?" she added gently.
"Well…no…WAIT, YES," said Bita.
"Really?"
"Yes."
"How did you do that? Because, I mean…THEY'RE DEAD!!!!"
"NO THEY AREN'T!!! I saw them in the park. Playing with the birds."
"Uh huh. Which park?"
"NO WAIT! I just remembered. They're at a family reunion."
"Bita, they were eaten by Waffle Pudding."
"NO! Waffle Pudding wouldn't eat them. If, for some reason, they AREN'T at the reunion, they're probably being held captive. I don't know why they would be. They're at the reunion."
"Ok, Bita, TRY to think. Why would I lie?"
Bita glared at Tiffany and said, "Maybe you work for Waffle Pudding and he just WANTS me to think that all of the lemons are dead."
"UGH! There's no point in trying to convince you any more…I give up," said Tiffany, turning away.
A few minutes passed and the two trios continued to inch closer to Filch.
"GUESS WHAT!" Rachelle suddenly said to Harry.
"What?" asked Harry.
Rachelle turned away and stared at a bug crawling along the floor beside her left foot.
"Um…Rachelle…?" asked Harry, looking confused.
Rachelle continued to ignore him. Tiffany rolled her eyes and explained, "It's ok…she just does that sometimes…"
"Oh…" said Harry, still looking confused.
Finally, the group made it to Filch, who glared at them, but checked them off on his list.
"Where should we go first?" asked Tiffany when they were in Hogsmeade.
"Look at the clothes I guess…then we can go eat," said Rachelle.
"Ok," agreed everyone else (worth importance).
The six entered Madam Malkin's Robes for all Occasions and saw that the robes had, indeed, been replaced with muggle clothes.
"OOOOOH!!!!!!!" said Bita as she found a yellow shirt.
Hermione began to examine a green long-sleeved shirt and Ron began to look at a pair of cargo pants.
It only took the group twenty minutes to pick out what they wanted for the dance and they were ready to find a place to eat lunch.
