Don't let me down

Chapter 9
I woke up and it was not even 7 o'clock.
I decided to take a long bath, since my roomates were still snoring.
In Hogsmeade Saturdays, I was used to wake up late and let them get ready themselves before. I rarely went to Hogsmeade, so usually there was no hurry.
But in that day I intended to be early for breakfast at the Great Hall. I promised her.
Maybe the bath was too long. Maybe I was overdressed, even though I tried to look casual in Muggle jeans, a navy blue polo shirt and black sweater. I was wearing my best colgne, the one Lily gave me for my birthday.
I went to Owlery and sent her a short note.
"Good morning!
I hope you've had a great sleep.
Same place today?
L."
When I got back to my dorm, the owl had already had a response note.
"Good morning, Earlybird.
I've just woken up and the girls are at war for the bathroom because of Hogsmeade.
I'll change, get breakfast and come back to dorm to take a shower and girl stuff.
Sorry for making you wait.
Same place, two hours from now?
L."
Oh, I was anxious. I tried to hide my dissapointment while I wraped the note and place it into my pockets. Just two hours, it couldn't be so long.
"Lys, why are you dressed up like this? Date in Hogsmeade?"
"I'm not dressed up!"
"So he does have a date..."
"No, guys, I won't go to Hogsmeade and I don't have a date." They could just let me go and come back to whatever they were doing.
"Just for today, we'll give you some breake. Jullian and I do have dates and we are worried enough." Matt said.
"Who are these poor girls?"
"Melissa and Olivia, third years."
"They're beautiful..." Not even close my sweet Lily, but they didn't need to know that.
"And they are ours." Jullian said with anger.
"Jullian, he does have his date. Remember?" Matt wouldn't let it go easy.
"Whatever you say..." Of course I won't tell them about Lily. We don't have anything established yet, unfortunately. Today wasn't even an official date.
"We're ready. Let's take breakfast before we pick up the girls!" Jullian said.
"Are you coming with us?" Matt asked.
"Of course!" Whatever that could make me a little busy and out of worries about what was going to happen later.
When I entered the Great Hall, all I could think of was checking on her. But the guys were already suspicious, and I had to be pretty discrete.
Yeah, she was there sitting with Albus, Malfoy and Rose.
What if Albus knew what happened last night? Lily said Malfoy and Albus were best mates now. What if he thoght I was not good enough to date her?
I was problably delirious. They always had breakfast together, and that day was no different.
She told me before that she would get out of bed, change to regular clothes and would make those girl stuff after.
When I saw her with school robes and a messy ponytail, I couldn't help but think she was the prettiest girl in that Great Hall. Even without all her girl stuff.
We exchanged some short looks. Her green eyes were different today, brighter. I felt like they were telling me she was happy.
"We should get going. I don't want to be late. Are you coming with us, Lys?" Jullian asked.
"Yes."
While we left the brakfast table, I looked at her for the last time and followed my roomates to the Front Door.
Olivia and Melissa, or Melissa and Olivia (I didn't which was who) were already waiting for them in the gardens.
I said "good bye" and made my way back to the castle.
