Chapter 47
It wasn't for another hour that Lily allowed James to leave the library. Afterwards, he agreed that if had been very beneficial to him to spend the morning studying, but at the time he was just frustrated at not being able to go flying with his friends. He met Sirius and Remus outside the Great Hall for afternoon tea and the three of them sat at the opposite end of the table to the girls.
"So, how was studying with darling Lily?" asked Sirius obnoxiously.
"Shut up." James mumbled as Remus and Sirius sniggered.
"Ahem."
The three of them turned to look at Dumbledore, who was standing up trying to get the attention of the students.
"As you know, with the ball taking place tonight, all afternoon classes have been cancelled." He waited for the cheers to stop before continuing. "This hall will be out of bounds from now until the start of the ball in order to give the prefects a chance to decorate."
The hall erupted in chatter as Dumbledore sat back down.

"Lily, are you going to tell us what you're wearing tonight?" Yvonne asked.
Lily looked down her nose at her friend. "You'll have to wait and see."
"Aw, come on!" whined Helga, who had brought her things to the dorm. "It had better not be anything green."
"Oh, well, since you guessed it, I suppose I can tell you." Lily said. "It's green with silver lining."
"What? Are you mad? Slytherin colours? Snape might think she actually likes him or something!" Yvonne said with a shudder.
"Hey, I was joking! Calm down! My dress is not green!" Lily said in a soothing voice to an hysterical Yvonne.
Yvonne glared.
A/N I'll try to get another one up tonight. We'll see.
