Chapter 13:
"As you are aware Midge Grundy cannot go unpunished for her role as 'the love potion bandit,'" said Professor Dumbledore peering down at Lily and James from his spectacles.
Professor McGonagall had called them to Dumbledore's office shortly after 11:30. And at that moment James and Lily were sitting across from Dumbledore as he spoke of retribution for Midge's crime.
"So after careful consideration Professor McGonagall and myself have decided to remove Ms. Grundy from her current position as Head Girl. We thought that the willingness to poison a fellow student was not a characteristic that a Head Girl, which is a position of great prestige, should have."
"She shall be replaced by Ms. Evans, if Ms. Evans accepts our offer." At this Dumbledore looked expectantly at Lily, a smile playing upon the corners of his lips.
Lily grinned, "Of course I'll accept!"
Dumbledore nodded his head, "Excellent."
Dumbledore then directed his gaze towards James. "This also concerns you because, upon arriving at this decision, I had called Mr. Lupin to my office to tell him of the removal of Midge Grundy, and the possibility of Ms. Evans taking her place." Dumbledore smiled at James rather cheerfully. "He said that in the case that Ms. Evans accepts the responsibilities of Head Girl he shall resign, and shall allow Mr. Potter to take his position as Head Boy."
James gaped at this announcement. Remus had honestly loved being Head Boy. He knew that it would look very good on job applications, and he needed all the help he could get being a werewolf and all.
"I'll do it," said James. The idea of having a private room with Lily was just too enticing.
"Lovely. I'm sure that the fact that you two are currently dating did not sway Remus' decision to step down," Dumbledore continued, a twinkle in his eye.
Lily blushed at Dumbledore's knowledge of her love life. James, however, was wondering if Dumbledore knew that he was visualizing having sex with Lily in their new private rooms at that very moment.
"Your belongings have already been moved to your new rooms and your password is 'Filch.' I thought it was appropriate since that is how you came to have your positions."
"So I'll let you go now as I know you have plenty to do before the dance.
And if I do not have the opportunity to tell you later I hope you have a lovely time tonight."
As Lily and James got up, James caught a distinct wink from Dumbledore. "Oh God," thought James, "He knows…and he approves." James then exited the room behind Lily trying to rid himself of the image of 'Dumbledore the Pimp' getting it on with a lot of big breasted women.
OOOOOOOOOOO
Upon entering their private quarters Lily and James were greeted by a lavishly decorated room of gold and red. It had a bright and cheery atmosphere to it. There was a fireplace placed in the center of the wall that was facing them. The pictures on the walls on both sides of the fireplaces showed lions in different stances. To the right was a door that read 'Lily' and to the left was a room that read 'James.'
James turned towards Lily, pulling her by the waist so that she leaned up against him. "So first night, my room or yours?"
Lily laughed, giving him a light smack on the back of the head. "I have to make sure all the preparations for the dance are going accordingly, and then I'm getting ready with Audra in my room."
James pouted. "Well, what am I suppose to do?"
"Practice some dance moves. When I come back I want to be dazzled by some John Travolta-esque moves."
"Can I see what you're wearing?"
"What? NO! It's bad luck to see me before I'm all ready."
"I'm sorry Ms. Evans I didn't know we were getting married."
Lily looked at James with a mock scathing look, "You should be so lucky."
"Well I just wanted to be sure that we matched."
Lily laughed. "You're such a fruit."
"Oh just pretend I didn't say anything!"
OOOOOOOOOOOO
Lily and Audra were just finishing getting dressed in Lily's room. It was only 5:00 o'clock, but as the 7th years were allowed to go and eat at Hogsmeade they needed more time.
Lily was adding a few more curls to her hair with her wand. "Audra, you never did tell me who you are going with to the dance with now that you broke up with He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named?"
Audra grinned, "Where was I? I had no idea I was going out with Voldemort all this time!"
Lily sighed, "You know who I mean."
"Yeah, but you can say his name. It's not forbidden. Though I am thinking of giving him an Indian name. Like 'One-With-Little-Penis-But-Big-Ego.'"
"Poor Sirius!"
"Poor my ass! Anyway, back to whom I'm going with. I want it to be a surprise, so you'll have to wait and see."
If Lily had not been busy giving herself a final look over in the mirror she would have seen a devilish grin on Audra's face."
OOOOOOOOOOOOOO
James and Sirius were preparing in the James' room. It had only taken them an hour to prepare, including showering and making their dress robes into tuxedos.
James looked at his watch, "Sirius hurry up. It's 5:00."
"One sec." Sirius began applying after-shave to his face and then reached for a bottle of cologne. He then asked, with an admirable front of nonchalance, "So…Who's Audra going with."
James quickly glanced at his watch again. "Er, I don't know."
"It's not that I care." However, the fact that Sirius had now applied at least 15 large squirts of cologne to himself, contradicted that statement. "I mean, I'm taking Nicolette Grady, and she's hot, so what do I care?" At this Sirius applied several more squirts.
James looked amusedly at his friend, "As you said you don't care I'm guessing you don't care."
Squirt.
"Damn right I don't care."
Squirt. Squirt.
"I mean Audra, she's annoying. She always wants to do physical stuff, and sometimes I want to talk about my feelings."
Squirt. SSS-QQQ-UUU-IIII-RRR-TTT.
"Since when have you wanted to talk about your feelings?"
"Shut Up James! That's not the point!" said Sirius vehemently.
Squirt.
"Okay," said James trying not to point and laugh at his friend.
"I mean, Ashley and I are going to PARTY!"
Squirt.
"I thought you said you were going with Nicolette?"
"Oh, whatever James. WHATEVER!"
James sniffed the air. "You know whoever you're going with, she's not going to want to party with you when she can't even breathe because you reek so bad."
Sirius inhaled, and almost choked. "I guess I put on a bit too much."
Sirius took out his wand and performed a freshening spell on his clothes. He then walked up to James. "Alright James, this is it."
Sirius looked at himself in the mirror once more. He looked sexy and by the smug look on his face one could tell that he knew he was. His hair fell gracefully in his face, and his black tuxedo emphasized his muscular but sleek physique. He straightened out his navy blue collared-shirt. He had opted against a tie, and his shirt was unbuttoned enough to reveal a bit of chest hair peaking out.
However, as good as Sirius looked James could have given him a run for his money. Though his hair was still untidy it looked rather appealing when added with his black tuxedo. He had on a simple white collared-shirt, and a forest green tie that Lily had got him for the occasion. The color of the tie emphasized the bits of green in his hazel eyes.
James opened his door to the common area he and Lily shared. "See you later, Padfoot."
Sirius acknowledged him with a wave of his hand and went to get his date.
James knocked at Lily's door. "Lil, are you ready?"
Audra opened the door. "Mr. Potter," she said in an exaggerated voice, "May I introduce to you the elegant and beautiful Ms. Lily Evans."
James looked expectantly at the door, and even though he expected Lily to look breathtakingly gorgeous, as she usually does, he was completely knocked out by her radiance.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
End of Chapter! He, he. You'll have to wait until the next chapter for the dance. Sorry, I know I promised it to you last chapter, but I lied. I know I'm an ass. It's just that I wrote this and it was already several pages so I decided to break the dance and whatever this chapter was about into 2 separate chapters. Anyway, for all those people who told me that Lily and James are the Head Girl and Boy, well here you are. I know it was a pretty gay twist, but hey, I though I'd be different. Finally, Thanks a million for all those who have reviewed this story so far. I know it's taken me forever to update, but life has been hectic and I haven't gotten many reviews the last 2 chapters so I've considered dropping the story, but I decided against it. SO PLEASE
REVIEW! PLEASE. PLEASE. PLEASE. The more reviews I get the quicker I'll update. Peace Out.
