Chapter 10
(AN: OK so it took longer than I thought....sry sry sry again, but my competition is over and I don't have any homework at the moment so here comes a chapter or two!!)
The week went far too fast for Lily, it seemed to be going extra fast that week, the teachers didn't load them up with too much homework, (key word: too much) but they still had some.
On wensday morning, Lily got a package from her parents, it was a costume for the ball, (they had to wear costumes) it was almost the exact same as one of the dresses from Sleeping Beauty (except it was green to match her eyes), one of Lily's favorite fairy tales.
She also found a tiara and necklace with a note from her mother:
Lily dear, these were your grandmother's and she had worn them at her Jr. and Sr. Prom. DON'T LOSE THEM!
Love you, Mom
Lily laughed and put the note down.
'Same old mom.' She thought of how her mother always pestered her about losing things.
She smiled and quickly went up the common room and then to her domitory and wrote a thank you note to her parents for the costume.
A few minutes later Emily joined her and saw Lily's costume laying on her bed.
"Oh wow Lily! That is such a cute costume." She said with a smile.
"You're going to knock James' socks off!" she squealed excited, making Lily blush.
Emily laughed and soon Lily joined her. But their laughter was abruptly stopped when Angel stormed into the room. (I don't think I named her, she's the Minister of Magic's Daughter from chapter one so ya)
"Evans! I have a bone to pick with you!"
Lily frowned, 'Great, just great.'
"Pick away." Lily said, not really wanting to have to listen to this.
Angel stepped up to Lily. "Words gone around that you're going with James Potter to Halloween Ball on Saturday? Is that true?"
Lily smirked. "Yeah it is. Have you found a date yet?"
Splat! Lily smiled as she saw Angel's mouth fell open, in shock.
'The sweet sound of a very larged ego being thrown to the ground.' She thought and turned to Angel.
"You got a problem with that?" Lily asked, smirking.
Angel didn't answer. Lily and Emily laughed and left the dormitory to meet up with the Maurauders.
! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
The days flew by for the six friends and soon it was Saturday, and Lily and Emily were in their dormitory getting ready for the ball which was going to be in half an hour.
Lily was sitting infront of a mirror as Emily did her hair and make up.
Emily had just finished Lily's hair which she had put up into a french twist, and was about to put on Lily's make up.
"I don't see why I have to wear make up Emily. I never have before why would I need to now?"
Emily laughed, "Because Lily dearest. A little bit of make up looks really good on you, and you want to empress lover boy don't you?"
Emily laughed as she saw Lily turn crimson.
It took about five minutes for Emily to do Lily's make up. She put on some light green eye shadow and then some lip gloss and a little blush but that was about it.
Lily was the type of person who looked good with only a little bit of make up.
Emily sqealed with excitement. "You look so cute Lily!"
Lily blushed again and then moved out of the way so Emily could do her own hair and make up.
Lily wasn't that good with the hair and make up so Emily just did hers herself.
! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
Meanwhile in the boys dormitory, James was a nervous reck as he put on his costume(he was dressing up as Prince Charming).
Sirius laughed at his friend's nervousness.
"Relax James, everything's going to be fine."
James didn't seem to hear his best friend and was mubbling to himself.
"What if I step on her toes while we're dancing? What if I trip and spill pumkin juice on her? What if"—
Remus didn't let him finish.
"James! Snap out of it! You're going to be fine! Stop worrying! You're going to be fine!"
James nodded slowly, and calmed down slightly.
"Okay, you're right. Just stay calm."
As Remus was calming down James, Peter turned to Sirius.
"You think James will be alright?" he asked
Sirius smirked, "Yeah, he'll be fine. He always is. So who are you going with Wormtail?"
Peter turned pink, "Lucy Onken from Ravenclaw."
Sirius smiled an d patted him on the back.
"Good job mate!"
Soon it was almost seven and the Maurauders went down to the common room.
Sirius and James waited for their dates as Remus and Peter headed out of the common room to meet up with theirs.
"Who are you going with Padfoot?"
Sirius smiled proudly, "Emily."
James raised an eyebrow. "Emily? As in Lily's best friend Emily?" James asked shocked.
Sirius nodded. "Yep."
James was going to ask more about this thing between his best friend and Lily's, but they heard giggling from behind them and turned, James and Sirius jaws dropped.
There standing infront of them were two angels.
Lily looked stunning in her costume and the green dress defenately brought out her eyes.
Emily look the same in her costume. (She was dressed up in a dress like from Cinderella, except she had added wings to look more like a fairy)
Emily smiled at Sirius' face and walked over to him.
"I'll take it you like my costume?" she said as she took her finger and shut Sirius' mouth.
Sirius woke up from his trance and offered her his arm.
"Would you give me the honour to accompany you to the ball this evening miss?"
Emily giggled and let Sirius lead her out of the room.
James smiled and looked over to Lily, who was still standing in the same spot looking at the ground while fiddling with her hands.
James walked over to her and took one of her fiddling hands and kissed it, which made Lily look up.
James smiled, "You look stunning tonight Lily."
Lily blushed and smiled up at James. "Not looking to bad yourself James."
James smiled and offered her his arm.
"Shall we?"
Lily blused and nodded, and also let James lead her out of the common room.
