Chapter 6
The next day, Bo, Alice and Lily were walking down a corridor (it was a Saturday morning) when James Potter came in their way. "Lily, can I talk to you? Please?"
James Potter, begging?
Lily sighed "Okay. I'll see you later, girls." Bo and Alice were out of sight.
"Lily, I need to know something. I need to know if you like me. I know the dance changed our feelings for each other, but I can't live without you, Lils. I've changed for you. I love you so much Lily, but if you say you still 'hate' me, I promise I'll leave you alone but I need to know what you feel about me." James finished his speech, making Lily look down. She was on the verge of tears.
"Lily?" he asked softly, lifting her chin with his hand.
"I will never hurt you. I will never look at another girl the way I look at you. I will ask this one last time. Lily, Will you be my girlfriend?" Lily was crying from happiness.
"Oh James! You don't know how wrong you are! I can never hate you!" she shouted before kissing him, making him surprised and pleased.
Pulling away from the kiss, Lily replied "Yes. I'll be your girlfriend." James grinned and kissed her. Little did they know, Alice and Bo never actually left.
Later that day, in the evening, the girls were sitting along with Natalie in the Gryffindor common room. They were sitting in a circle, getting ready for the oath. Alice pulls out a knife and sits along with the girls, and chants "We shall protect, love, respect, and be true sisters for each other." She smiles at Lily, who was sitting next to her.
"We shall smile when happy, we shall cry when sad, and frown when mad." Lily looks at Bo, who's next to her to continue.
"No man would ever come between us."
And Genevieve says firmly "Let us find the loves of our lives." Alice nicks her hands with the knife and passes it on to Lily, and so on. They join hands, with their blood flowing on each other's hands.
Sarah later finishes "Now our blood flows through each other as is done for all eternity, loyal forever, we raise our voices in the words"
They all scream out, including Natalie "The Pink Ladies shall unite!"
"Bless the newcomer, Natalie Potter!" Genevieve screams. They dance along as Indians just for the fun.
"Well, after that's done, we can play Truth or Dare!" Lily smiled. "I'll bring the truth serum." Genevieve said, running to her room. Sarah muttered a spell which made a small record player flying to her.
"Good thing I got the records." Bo smiled, handing them to her. Jimmy came in, running to Bo. "Jimmy! Long time no see." she said sarcastically. A big Labrador came into the room, making the girls squeal.
"Oh, is he lonely?" Sarah scratched behind the dog's ear.
"Maybe it's a she!" Alice insisted. Lily pulled out the serum from the dog's mouth, looking at the girls.
"Genevieve must have gone to the bathroom, so she probably gave it to the dog." Bo lied, making up a reason. They started to play the game.
"Lily, truth or dare?" Bo asked her.
"Truth" Lily said, taking a sip from the serum.
"Tell us ladies, is it true that you're actually James Potter's girlfriend?"
"Yes. How did you know?" Lily paled.
"Well, let's just say" Bo looked at Alice "- we never left you guys alone" Alice grinned
"You spied on me?!" Lily said, throwing a cushion pillow at Alice. They others laughed as well.
"Well I really like him" Lily blushed. Sarah grinned, while petting the dogs.
"Bo, truth or dare?"
"Truth, Nats" Bo said, taking a sip from the serum. Natalie smiled.
"Is it true that you like a certain Sirius Black?"
"Oh yeah! I don't like him. I love him" When she realized what she said, she covered her mouth with her hands quickly.
"Did you hear that? She loves Sirius!" Sarah laughed.
"BO AND SIRIUS SITTING IN A TREE, K-I-S-S-I-N-G! First comes love, then comes marriage-" the girls were cut off by Bo pouncing on the girls. They were wrestling. They were just sitting around. They had enough from the game until Lily cried out, "Bo I dare you to do Rizo's song about Sandy from 'Grease'!" "That would be so funny!" Natalie laughed. "Fine then Ladies. I shall do the dare." The girls conjured a purple buttoned shirt, a short blonde wig. "Oh! You gotta take your pants off!" Alice smiled. Bo took them off, making the girls wolf whistle.
The song boomed from the record player, and Bo sang:
"Look at me, I'm Sandra Dee
Lousy with virginity
Won't go to bed 'til I'm legally wed"
She sang, lifting her ring finger
"I can't; I'm Sandra Dee"
Lily got in her way when she sang
"Watch it! Hey I'm Doris Day
I was not brought up that way
Won't come across,
Even Rock Hudson lost
His heart to Doris Day
I don't drink (no)
Or swear (no)
I don't rat my hair
The other girls shrieked "EWWW!"
"I get ill from one cigarette"
The girls fake coughing
"Keep your filthy paws"
Bo sang, while pushing Genevieve's paw away from her lap
Off my silky draws"
Would you pull that crap with Annette?
As for you Troy Donahue,
I know what you wanna do
You got your crust
I'm no object of lust
I'm just plain Sandra Dee
Elvis, Elvis, let me be!
Keep that pelvis far from me!
Just keep your cool"
The girls were very shocked to see the Labrador transform into Genevieve. They didn't understand what happened.
Genevieve sang "Now you're starting to drool
Hey Fongool, I'm Sandra Dee!"
The song ended with Bo and Genevieve laughing. "You should see the looks on your faces!" Bo couldn't breathe from laughing.
"You're an animagus?" Natalie asked. Genevieve sighed and nodded.
"Since when?" Alice asked, pulling Bo up from the floor.
"Well, Bo and Lily knew about this since our 2nd year. So I'm an animagus since then." Genevieve informed.
"Are you registered? Natalie asked. Genevieve shook her head.
"I have a little secret myself." Sarah muttered. "I'm a werewolf." she bit her lip, on the verge of tears. Natalie gasped. "I was bit when I was 6 years old." She cried and continued "I was wandering around in the forest, and I didn't hear my older brother shouting to me. And I ran away as soon I saw the werewolf, and I fell and hit my head. The next time I opened my eyes, I was in the hospital with scratches and about 2 big bites. And that's when my life changed. I later discovered that my father had bit me. I didn't want to tell you because I didn't want any sympathy, any sympathetic looks from others but I know that I can trust you."
"We already knew but we didn't make that oath for no reason." Sarah looked at to see Alice smiling and Genevieve nodding.
The night was memorable for the girls. Bo revealing her love for Sirius, Lily telling about her and James, Genevieve as a dog, Sarah saying she was a werewolf. And also the fun things: Lily stripping to her undergarments to a Blondie song, Sarah dirty dancing and shouting that she likes Remus. Unfortunately, so did Natalie. They had no idea that the Marauders were watching the whole night under James' invisibility cloak.
