A night of dancing and a very romantic dinner followed, but whilst Lily and Hannah were enjoying themselves, Clare was left nursing a broken heart and Carolyn was wondering if there was any point to love – two days ago she had been asked out by one of the fittest lads in school yet she had turned him down as she had her eye on someone else, but he wasn't interested in her. She was left alone and looking rather obnoxious.

Carolyn was sitting in the girl's dormitory alone. She was thinking about Cian, the way he looked and his accent just made her want to faint. He had dark brown hair and chocolate brown eyes and he had the most gorgeous Irish accent. He was a Hufflepuff 7th year and the only downside to him was that he was more interested in two of her best friends – Clare and Rachel. She began to sing to herself

I can show you the world

Shining, shimmering, splendid

Tell me, now when did you last let your heart decide?

A whole new world

A new fantastic point of view

No one to tell us no

Or where to go

Or say we're only dreaming

Tears fell down her cheek, she didn't even know why it made her cry, it just did.

Peter was sitting in a room near the dungeons in a small, dark corner. He hated hanging around with James, Remus and Sirius lately as they were always with Rachel, Hannah and Lily and they were girls! Girls who didn't even know him or even like him for that matter. If only there was a way to split them up.

-

Rachel was in the Ravenclaw Common Room, thinking about James and the little challenge she had given him and was wondering if there was a point to it. She knew that James would crack first but what she hadn't counted on was her feeling guilty about giving him it and what made it worse was she didn't even know why she was feeling guilty.

-

"We best be getting back." Remus whispered to Hannah

Hannah nodded

"And I'll think we can leave them to it!" She added, jerking her head towards Sirius and Lily, who were dancing.

Hannah took a piece of parchment out of her jeans pocket and a pen and wrote

H and R

"I really enjoyed tonight." Hannah said

"I'm glad!" Remus grinned. "And what was with the shorthand?"

Hannah shrugged

"I didn't want to disturb them."

Remus chuckled

-

"Where have Hannah and Remus gone?" Lily asked

"Dunno." Sirius answered, looking over "But there is parchment on the table."

He walked over and read the little note.

"They've gone back."

"Then it's just us then." Lily said tenderly

"I suppose it is." Sirius smiled, and dipped her body. He leant in and kissed her sweetly. He brought her back up again and just stared into her eyes. They seemed to mesmerise him, the way they sparkled and the warmth they had.

"I guess we best catch up." He murmured against her lips

"I guess."

Sirius blew out the candles and switched off the music and linked his arm with Lily's. The walked out of the building, which, in the darkness just looked like an ordinary derelict building. They made their way back through Hogsmeade and through the passage back to Hogwarts. When they were back and were in the Common Room, Sirius put his arms around Lily's waist and rocked her slightly. He caught sight of Remus and Hannah asleep by the fire and said

"They look cute together."

Lily giggled slightly.

"They're one of those couples that you wouldn't associate them being together."

"Mmm." Sirius murmured.

Lily yawned

"I'm going to bed, I'm so tired."

Sirius smiled

"Alright. Night."

He kissed her on the cheek and she headed for the girl's dormitory, Sirius followed suit and went to bed about half and hour later. He couldn't stop thinking about how beautiful she was and how lucky he was to have her.
