Love my reviewers/followers/favouriters lots, thanks guys xoxox
Day 3
"Why can't you wake up early? I need some help with what to wear tomorrow!" Tally shouted, shaking Lily violently. Lily grumbled and rolled over. "Wake up Lily! Wake up!" She kept shaking Lily until Lily was sure her eyeballs would fall out of her mouth.
"Go away you awful woman. I'm trying to sleep." She mumbled, her voice hoarse.
"No, you have to get up right this instance!" Tally moaned. "Today is full on beauty day, we want ourselves to look perfect for tomorrow evening!"
"Isn't my natural beauty enough?" Lily grumbled. "What even is the time?" There was a pause as Tally checked the time.
"7:48 Am. Too late! Hurry up and get out of bed! We are gonna be late for lessons!" She started pulling Lily's duvet away from her. Lily's only response was to bury herself even deeper underneath the covers apart from one arm, which she used to make a rude hand gesture at Tally. "Charming. Now get the hell out of bed before I hex you."
"This isn't helping my beauty sleep!" Lily whined, slowly sitting up.
"Good morning, boys!" Tally and Lily said at the exact same time. "Oh my God." They said again. "That is so cool!" Still completely in tune. "Stop now!" They both exclaimed, laughing.
"You two spend too much time together." Albus and Scorpius both mumbled through mouthfuls of breakfast. They both looked at each other in surprise and started laughing with Tally and Lily.
"You four are so weird." Dylan muttered, patting a space on the bench for Tally. She hopped over the bench and sat down, giving him a small hug. "Good morning, beautiful." He whispered in her ear. She smiled and giggled.
"Lily, come sit here!" Scorpius shoved Albus along to create a space in between them. She nodded and slid onto the seat.
"Ooh, pre-heated, thanks Al!" She said, piling large quantities of food onto her plate. "I'm so bored of this diet."
"Why are you on a diet! You're basically anorexic!" Scorpius put his hands round her waist to prove it as his hands nearly touched.
"You have big hands." Lily stated. "It wasn't exactly a diet, so much as eating fruit for breakfast and fruit for snacks. But I missed bacon." She said, picking up 5 rashers of bacon and stuffing them all in her mouth at once.
"You're skinnier than this fork, yet you're such a pig!" Tally prodded her with a fork.
"Holy fork! That hurt!" Lily moaned, rubbing her arm.
"Oh I see what you did there. You're a funny kid." He tickled her side and she shoved him so hard that he fell backwards off his bench into a poor Hufflepuff first year. The whole of the Slytherin table and most of the other houses burst out laughing at the supposedly 'cool' kid humiliate himself.
"Don't tickle me! I've warned you before!" She laughed, helping him up. "Come on, lessons start soon."
"Lily!" Dylan hissed, throwing a scrunched up ball of parchment at her. She jumped and stopped staring into space.
"Miss Potter, if you please, stop daydreaming when I ask you questions." Professor Flitwick squeaked.
"Oh, sorry Professor." She mumbled.
"What I was asking you to do is perform the spell we have been practising over the past few weeks." Damn it. Professor Flitwick knew she had trouble in Charms, and he often picked on her.
"Erm, okay then Professor." She cleared her throat and held out her wand. She carefully remembered the tips Scorpius had taught her and performed the spell. Flitwick fell off his chair.
"My my! Miss Potter has done it! She's the best in the class!" He said in surprise. "How are you cheating?" He narrowed his eyes in suspicion. Lily's mouth opened in a perfect O.
"Professor! That's not fair! Lily has been working on this for a while! She's put all her hard work into perfecting it and you've picked apart her work and accused her of things she didn't do!" Tally stood up, defending Lily.
"Tally, it's fine, just leave it." Lily hissed under her breath.
"No it's not fine Lily! It's out of order! You've been practising this spell for ages and he just accuses you!" Tally shouted.
"Tally, just drop it. It's fine, I can see why he's accused me, but honestly Professor, I've just been practising lots." Lily blushed profusely and hid behind her hair. The whole class was staring at her, which is the one thing she hated.
"Miss Gorroba, for this outburst I am taking away 5 points from Slytherin and you will be seeing me after class to arrange a detention." Flitwick said carelessly.
"Now I have to protest Professor! She was just defending Lily, and she had a right to!" A Gryffindor exclaimed, and to Lily's surprise, the rest of the class agreed. Lily blushed even more, turning positively scarlet.
"I hate this." Lily muttered to Dylan, who was stretching out in the desk next to her. He laughed and agreed.
"It's the perks of being famous, love." He joked. Lily rolled her eyes and poked him.
"Oh my gosh, look at my tanlines!" Lily exclaimed, pulling the straps of her bikini off her shoulder.
"Look at mine!" Tally exclaimed, pulling the side of her bikini bottoms down slightly. She was nearly as white as Lily underneath her bikini, but on top she was almost toffee coloured. They had decided to catch a little bit of sun after school before it started raining again.
"That's not fair. You have Spanish blood in your veins, it's only understandable." Lily defended, poking Tally. "So, what shall we wear tomorrow?"
"Well, I was thinking, not too dressy. Maybe shorts and a nice top?" Tally pondered. "Here are my options." She rifled through her suitcase, throwing all shorts and tops she had with her onto the bed. Lily flopped down onto the bed and started going through the choices. When Tally had found all of them, she spread them out along the bed to help Lily pick. "What about..." Tally gathered a pair of red shorts and a black short sleeved shirt. "These?" She asked.
"Oh good Lord no. How about this, with, erm, this?" Lily held them up. Pastel pink shorts with a white vest.
"Too pale. This and this, maybe?" Black shorts and a green lacy top. "No. That colour would suit you, but not me. If the top was a dress." Lily agreed.
"Oh! I just remembered! I have the perfect dress for you! I bought it for your birthday this year but forgot to pack it in the Autumn term!" Lily jumped up and ran to her case, pulling out a dress with lots of different blue and purple and white colours. It was one shouldered with a three-quarter length sleeve and in a bodycon style, ending around the mid-thigh. It was mainly a turquoise colour but it had purple and white hues. The print looked like lots of brush strokes with the occasional snake print. It was a soft, swimming costume fabric.
"Oh Merlin, it's beautiful! I'm trying it on right this very second." Tally exclaimed, snatching the dress from Lily and pulling it over her head. She tugged the hem straight and looked in the mirror. "Oh my gosh. It's the most beautiful thing ever. Thank you so much. Best birthday present ever."
"Yeah, one dress is so much better than a whole villa in the south of Spain." Lily teased. For her 16th birthday, Tally's dad had bought her a villa in Spain, to mark her growing responsibility. Tally's family was rich. Tally's family was as rich as the Potter family was, without a doubt.
"Okay, maybe I'm exaggerating a little bit. But it's stunning."
"You look gorgeous in it." Lily agreed.
"Maybe I've got a chance with Dylan if I look like that." Tally said wistfully. "Anyway, enough about me, what are you going to wear?"
"Well, unless we find something better, this." Lily pulled out a dusky rose coloured dress and slipped it on. It had a sweetheart neckline but had a mesh extension for the thick straps (tank top style) and also to make the neckline end higher. It had a big black strip of fabric round the waist that looked like a belt but didn't actually suck anything in, only make Lily look like she had an hourglass figure instead of being a ruler. The skirt was very short and started at her waist, ruffling out to her upper thigh.
"Babe, you look amazing! It gives you a figure! My baby girl has grown up!" Tally exclaimed dramatically, pretending to wipe away tears of joy. Lily shoved her playfully.
"Don't you start, you're as bad as my actual mother!" Lily giggled. "Right, now that's decided, we need to start doing our faces. Shall we use the new face masks Weasley's Wizard Wheezes started selling? Uncle George gave me a few." Lily rummaged through her toiletries bag until she found them. "Don't worry, it's Wonderwitch products, not the pranks. Do you want strawberries or pineapple?" Lily waved the two packets in front of Tally's face.
"Pineapple, definitely!" Tally grabbed the packet and started applying, as did Lily with the strawberry.
The rest of the evening passed smoothly with the girls using various beauty objects to ensure they looked their best at the party to come. They made sure they didn't leave the room, and had a complete boy-free evening, and they enjoyed that a lot. They talked about everything under the sun, until they were even closer than before, which they honestly thought was not possible.

PS: The reason they weren't at school the last two days was because there was an incident that got most teachers called to the Ministry so there were no lessons for 2 days :) and because it was sunny the teachers that were there let the students spend all of the time outside :D
