Disclaimer: I don't own any Harry Potter characters. I only own Tracey, the tiara of Valar and a few house elves! Yay!

Flashback on previous chapter:

"May I have this dance?" James asked Lily while Sirius did the same to Tracey. The only girl who thought he had a too big ego. Surprisingly, she accepted.

James held tight to Lily as they moved. She planted a kiss on his neck. James nuzzled his head into her hair and knew it couldn't get any better than this.

Chapter 6

Tracey's POV

I couldn't believe it. I had actually accepted Sirius's offer to dance. I mean, you can't get any more pigheaded than that bloke.

Lily and James had looked so cute together. It was like they were in a world of their own. And to think that before, Lily had thought of him as an annoying piece of gum at the bottom of her shoe. Now, on the other hand, she loved everything about him from his obnoxious friend Sirius to James's little bottle of dork shampoo.

Don't get me wrong, James is a nice guy, but after being best friends with him and Lily for like forever, you learn everything about them.

His timetable: Get up, ask Lily out, have breakfast, ask Lily out, annoy Lily, ask Lily out, class, ask Lily out, class, ask Lily out, lunch break, ask Lily out, and so on.

His dreams: Lily, Quidditch, Lily, Quidditch, Lily, Quidditch, Lily, Quidditch, Lily, Quidditch, Lily, Quidditch, Lily, Quidditch, and so on.

Quite boring actually. Not that I'm not Quidditch obsessed. I am more obsessed about Quidditch that everyone else. I can play in any position, but I like Seeker best. James, shoot goals, Sirius, hit big hard mentally ill balls, Me, catch tiny little golden balls, avoid being hit by mentally ill balls and put up with Sirius asking me out countless times until I want to smash his beaters club into his perfect nose. That's quite a good idea actually.

Her timetable: Get up, turn down James, have breakfast, turn down James, ask me to tell James to stop annoying her, class, turn down James, class, turn down James, lunch break, turn down James, and so on.

Her dreams: how annoying James is, lipstick, how annoying James is, bras, how annoying James is, clothes, how annoying James is, magazines, how annoying James is, make up, how annoying James is, and so on.

I prefer James's dreams. Who wants makeup? Anyway. Lily forced me to get dressed up for the Kris Kringle and made me wear a slinky silk gown which supposedly went well with my complexion, makeup, which would bring out my Asian features and dimples and Lily twisted my hair up into an elegant shiny bun.

Trust Lily to know everything, after all, she is the beauty queen of Hogwarts and the know-all in charms. Though I am extremely good at Transfiguration if I may say so myself.

Still, I felt rather odd when everyone stared at me, and Sirius's face darkened with jealousy. I had come single of course. No way I would go as a couple with anyone unless as just friends.

Anyway, Sirius and I were dancing to a slow song. My face was heating up because of all the jealous looks girls were giving me.

"Do you want to go for a walk?" Sirius asked suddenly.

I was caught off guard. "Um, sure," I replied uneasily. Some sixth sense signaled something would happen.

We went out into the cool air and strolled to a willow tree by the lake.

"Tracey?" Sirius asked. I blushed, "Sorry, must have spaced."

"Um, Tracey?" Sirius asked again.

"Yeah?"

"You know how I've known you like forever, and you're Prongs's best friend?"

I nodded slowly not sure where he was leading.

"Well, Tracey," Sirius said coming a bit closer. I froze. My heart was pounding and I was nervous. No boy had ever been so close to me in this way. I mean, James had kissed me once when we were snotty-nosed little kindies, but this was different. I was kind of enjoying tenseness in the air.

"Tracey ," he said yet again "I-I really. I really like you. I would love you if love wasn't so much more deeper and serious."

I could swear my heart missed a beat. Make that three beats.

Sirius moved closer than ever. I could feel his hot breath on my cheek.

"Well isn't that sweet?" sneered a voice.

Sirius and I sprang apart.

"Mind your own business Snivellus," I snarled.

"Ooh, the pretty Asian mudblood has a complaint," Snape commented.

"TAKE THAT BACK!" Sirius bellowed sticking his wand out.

"You couldn't harm a flea you son of a #& " swore Snape.

Snape blinked and turned into a ferret. "Nice!" said Sirius admiringly.

I grinned and whispered into Sirius's ear. We marched up to Hogwarts with identical evil grins towing a very unhappy levitating ferret.

When we reached the Great Hall, we were met with Lily, James and Remus also with evil grins.

"Hi," I said nervously.

They all took out their wands. Remus transfigured a marble statue into mistletoe and Lily levitated it until it hovered above me and Sirius.

Blushing furiously I turned Snape/the ferret to look in the opposite direction and pecked Sirius on the lips.

Lily, James and Remus all groaned. "Kiss her," he pleaded Sirius.

Sirius grinned handsomely and before I could do anything dipped me and kissed me deeply. My face was like a red spotlight. Students walking past all stopped and chuckled at my expense.

When we pulled away for air, my face was still burning crimson and more to distract anyone than anything, Sirius and I went on the stage licking our lips.

"Students what you will witness toda-" Sirius began.

"Oh shut up." I snapped. Giggles ran through the audience.

"Sirius and I were taking a walk," I said, "And we caught Snivellus, erm, spying on us. So we decided because we had to suffer from the misfortune of being closer by a mile to his greasy form than we would have liked, we would he would put on a show for you youngsters. So, may I present, drumroll please, SNIVELLUS THE AMAZING BOUNCING FERRET!"

I drew him on stage. "Now watch very carefully," I instructed as Sirius put on some classical music. "Up, down, up, down." I commentated to the beat of the music, "Up, down, up, down-he seems to be enjoying it- up, down." And indeed the ferret was letting out squeaks of agony from being hit on the ceiling and floor.

I noticed that some of the teachers were looking less than thrilled so- "Up, down, up, down, up!" I transformed him into his ugly, original form and dropped him from a fair height.

BOOM!

Several teachers ran to fuss over the dazed student while Sirius and I bowed to a chorus of encores and applause.

"Run!" I whispered as an amused but serious McGonagall approached.

"Three, two, one, GO!" Sirius cried. We sprinted towards the doors together. Students moved apart as they came.

"Bet you three sickles I'll beat you!" I gasped.

"You're on," replied Sirius.

We dashed through the doors and slammed them shut behind us.

"You owe me three sickles," I said.
