A/N-Sorry this has been so long! School has been crazy. But I'm on break and home now, and honestly, all of your reviews is what got me to write this and post it. If it wasn't for all the alert emails I've gotten I probably wouldn't have. But thank you!

AND-Sorry, this is a pretty short chapter. But it's all I have time for at the moment. I wanted to give you guys this now, and probably in the next few days there will be another. Happy Christmas soon!

Lily kept waking during the middle of the night, thinking of the ball and the wonderful things that happened. She was actually notised by the prince! And he wanted to meet her again. But whenever she thought of that, she remembered how he didn't know her name and even if he somehow came to the house, her step-mum and step-sisters would never allow her to see him. A few tears rolled down her rosy cheeks.

"Faerie grandmother," she sighed, hoping she had found the glass slipper. There were few possessions of her mother that she still had. Her step-family had destroyed most of them.

Pop, her faerie godmother appeared.

"Did you find the slipper?" Lily asked excitedly.

"I'm sorry my darling, I didn't," Faerie Godmother said as she walked next to Lilyella, stroking her hair.

A few more tears rolled down Lily's cheeks and she sighed, falling asleep to Faerie Godmother's caring touch and song.

Lily's faerie godmother was not able to retrieve the slipper for her, because as soon as it had been dropped, James grabbed it and put it in a safe place. It was his only connection to the beautiful girl that he wanted, no, needed, to find.

He enjoyed the dance but it was hard to have a good time when the girl with the red hair had left, and she occupied almost his entire mind. The other girls were interesting, sure, there were many as beautiful as her. But she captivated him in a way that none had done before.

He had asked a few people that were there if they knew who she was, but could not get a reply. It seemed that she was more mysterious than he expected. There were two girls that were flirting with him constantly, and from them was the only reply that was not a direct, "No, I don't know them." In fact, the girls, Janine and Petunia were their names if he remembered correctly, didn't really say anything. They just giggled a bit in their sham way and told him she was a nobody.

Nothing could deter him from his search though. After the ball he talked to Sirius and Lupin, asking them to assist him in his search for the mysterious girl. Sirius didn't care as much for helping, more distracted with wanting to rate the girls at the dance.

"Did you see that bird in the sky blue dress? Mate, that's the one you should go for. If you don't, I sure will!" commented Sirius.

Lupin was much more sympathetic however, and agreed to help James in any way he could. James didn't know how he would find the mysterious girl, but knew he needed to.

It had been a long night, and James and the boys decided to catch some sleep. In the morning they'd discuss their possibilities.
