Chapter 23 – Confused!

"Kev?" Lily asked uncertainly, as the two broke their kiss, and he started placing soft kisses on her neck. "What's all this?"

"Don't you realise?"

"What?"

"I like you, I always did!" Kev said as he looked up and faced her. He saw her blank expression, and asked, "You do like me, don't you?"

"Kev, I..." she started and then realised that this was the moment she had always been waiting for, and muttered, "You know I do."

Kevin smiled at her, and leaned in for another kiss which she accepted. 'At last, he's kissing me!' she thought, as she felt his warm lips catch hers.

Once again their kiss broke and Kevin asked,

"So you wanna, um, become my girlfriend?"

Lily smiled, and blushed as she muttered, "Yes!" Kevin grinned until suddenly his expression changed abruptly.

"Fuck!"

"What's wrong Kev?" Lily asked surprised.

"I can't take you to the ball. I'm taking that Broadman girl. Damn, I had asked her earlier today! Well don't worry, I'll tell her that I can't go with her!" he said, as he leaned in to kiss her again.

"No wait!" Lily said, as she pushed his face back up to look in his eyes. "I had promised Ale that I would go with him. It would be unfair to back off now!"

"Why did you accept to go with him?" he asked angrily.

"Kev, you asked another girl before first, not me!"

"I know, I know, you're right! It's just that I'm jealous of him!"

"You don't have to be," Lily said reassuringly, as she hugged Kevin tightly, "I want to be with you." But a voice in her mind said exactly the opposite.

Next morning, round 5, Lily woke up. She looked around her, and the rest of her friends were still sleeping.

Lily then remembered last night, when Kevin had asked her out. She smiled, as she remembered, but then a strange thought popped in her mind.

'Was she ready to date a guy? Or actually, was this the guy that she wanted?'

"Of course he is," she whispered. "I've always wanted him to be the one, and yet, now that we're together, I feel strange. I just don't feel happy!"

'Could it be that she, Lily Potter, was no longer in love with Kevin? Was that possible? Was she interested in someone else?'

"No of course not!" she told herself, indignantly, "It's only that now it'll be strange to date your bestfriend!"

And with that she tried to sleep again, and her thoughts could not help but falling on one guy … Alejandro.

"Hey Lily!" Dinah, a girl from her dormitory called, as she threw a cushion at Lily.

"Hmm?" Lily muttered, as she rubbed her eyes, and yawned. "What happened?"

"Nothing happened you dickhead! It's just that it's already 7! I met Adriana down in the Common Room! She said that you two, and your cousin, what's her name- um Delicata, have to go shopping for your dress robes for this evening!"

"Hell yeah! I had forgot!"

"Well get up then!" Dinah said as she grabbed Lily's hand and pulled her up.

"Thanks for being my daily alarm clock!" Lily said as she smiled and hugged her.

"No problem! Oh, and by the way! Next time you'll be dreaming about your guy, draw the curtains around your bed!" Dinah teased, as she smirked.

"What do you mean?" Lily asked with a suspicious look.

"Well, you should have seen how you were snogging your pillow!" Dinah said as she burst laughing.

Lily grinned, and said, "Yeah, whatever!"

/-

"Wow! At last Princess Guinevere has decided to wake up!" Adriana teased.

"Shut up bitch!"

"Whatever!" Adriana said as she smiled. "Let's go!"

"Yeah," Delicata said, and the three turned to leave.

"Lily!"

"Yo!" Was Lily's reply and as she turned around she saw Ale smiling at her. "Oh it's you!" she then muttered in a tiny voice and felt uncomfortable.

"Yeah, is that a prob? I just wanted to tell you good morning!"

"Um, yeah of course. Good morning!" Lily whispered as she looked in his eyes, and her heart made a summersault. "Um, dude, I gotta go! See ya!"

With that she turned, and grabbed the other two, and they ran out of the Common Room.

"Bye!" Ale said to no one in particular as he saw Lily disappear. He shrugged, and turned only to see Kevin who was coming down the stairs, eye him in a strange way.

Ale just smiled weakly at him, and left the Common Room for breakfast.

"What's wrong?" Dan asked, as the two were in the stairs. "Keep going!"

"Um yeah!" Kevin answered, as he continued walking down the stairs. "By the way! Heard the news?"

"What?"

"Lily and I are dating!"

"That's great!" Daniel said. "But what about tonight, I mean the ball. Aren't you going with Diane?"

"Yeah, and she'll still go with Alejandro-git. We're still gonna try and stay together for the Ball though."

"Oh I see," Dan muttered, "Well, let's go for breakfast!"

"Yeah!"

/-

"So does this mean that you're going out with Kevin?" Adriana almost squealed as the three were having a Butterbeer at the Three Broomsticks.

"Yep," Lily muttered, as she sipped her drink.

"Aren't you glad about it?" she then asked.

"Of course I am!" Lily snapped.

"But you like that other guy we saw this morning," Delicata continued, "Am I not right?"

"Of course you're not! It's only that I'm going to the Ball with him! I mean, we had planned before that we'd go together, so it would have not been fair to tell him that I was not going with him. He doesn't even know that I'm with Kevin now!"

"And aren't you gonna tell him?" Delicata asked slyly.

"Of course I will!"

"This proves one thing. You do care enough to tell him that you're going out with another. I mean if he was just un garcon normal, you would have not cared at all!" Delicata told her cousin.

"I know, I do care for him! I mean he's a good friend!"

"Lils, you don't have to fake it, I mean if you don't like Kev just stop your relationship!"

"Will you just shut up?" she yelled at the two of them. "Who said that I don't like Kev? I like Kevin and I won't bloody well leave him, got it?"

"Yeah, sure," Delicata muttered, as she shifted uncomfortably in her seat.
