Day 4
"I honestly cannot be bothered to trudge through all these lessons." Scorpius groaned as he sat down next to Lily.
"Don't even get me started on the problems of this day!" Albus agreed, nibbling on some toast.
"What lessons have you got?" Lily asked, giving Scorpius a hug.
"The worst ones!" He complained.
"Oh, babe! At least we've got the party tonight. I'm looking forward to it. So, watcha think? Does my hair look more glossy and volumised?" Lily flicked her hair like the TV ads she saw. Tally laughed.
"Oh totally darling. You look fabulous!" Scorpius said, acting camp.
"I reckon you would be a good gay best friend. Helping me choose outfits for parties. Giving me guy advice." Lily thought aloud.
"As long as you have to strip naked to pick your outfits, I can pretend to be gay." Scorpius teased. Lily's mouth gaped open and she shoved him.
"Scorpius, that's disgusting. Please don't talk about my sister like that." Albus grumbled, shifting around on his chair uneasily.
"He's just teasing." Lily defended.
"It's still disgusting. I would like to keep my breakfast in my stomach."
"What's going on?" Dylan asked, sitting in between Tally and Lily. He gave Lily a quick hug, as usual, and awkwardly nodded to Tally.
"Oh dear Lord just hug her." Lily groaned.
"It's really annoying." Scorpius agreed with Lily.
"We all know you like each other, just stop being so annoying." Albus also agreed. Lily grinned like the Cheshire Cat. Another argument won. She loved some competition. Dylan shrugged and held his arms out to Tally, who accepted it happily.
"Thank Merlin." Lily joked, pretending to wipe sweat off her forehead. Dylan poked her, causing a poke war between all of them. Lily was just about to flick some cereal at Albus' girlfriend (who refused to take part) when a teacher stopped next to them.
"Mr and Ms Potter, you are needed in the headmistress' office." He informed. Lily and Albus exchanged nervous glances. The only time they ever got called into the head's office was if they had done something or someone in the family was injured. "The password is Cheeri-owl. You are needed immediately." He told them this then walked off quickly. Lily and Albus jumped up swiftly and ran to the door, shoving anyone who got in the way to the side, causing several people to shout at them. Their complaint fell on deaf ears. Albus and Lily were far too worried to care.
"Al?" Lily puffed, running up the stairs.
"Yeah?"
"I'm scared. What if Dad has been injured? Or Mum? Or Grandma or Grandpa?" Lily slowed down to a walk, placing her hands upon her head to get rid of a stitch. Albus stopped running too, bending over to catch his breath back.
"I'm sure it will be fine. Come here." He opened his arms and pulled Lily into a bone crushing hug. Only when he finally let go did Lily see his eyes glisten with tears. "Grandpa hasn't been very well recently, has he?"
"Don't. I'm sure it will be fine. Come on, the quicker we get here the quicker we find out." She grabbed his hand and pulled him forward. He rolled his eyes but continued to jog up the stairs until they reached the great statue that marked the entrance to the office.
"Cheer..." Albus panted. "I... Owls..." The statue seemed to think for a second before finally letting them through to the stairs. They knocked on the door and collapsed against the wall on either side of the frame, catching their breath. Some 20 seconds later, Rose and Hugo Weasley, their cousins, appeared at the top of the stairs in the same state, along with Louis and Lucy, more of their cousins.
"You're all here too? It must be important then." Lucy huffed.
"It's obviously family things. Oh, I hope it's not Grandpa or Grandma!" Rose whined. They all started talking at once, worrying about what was wrong.
"Have either of you heard from your dad about any missions recently?" Albus addressed Rose and Hugo. They shook their heads.
"Well, that hopefully narrows it down." Lily tried to be positive. "But then again, maybe they couldn't tell us." A worried silence then fell upon the group. Lily knocked on the door again, just to make sure McGonagall had heard them. They heard footsteps come to the door and suddenly it was wrenched open, the hinges creaking loudly.
"What's wrong? Who's hurt?" The group of cousins all asked together. At any other time, they would have laughed, but not today.
"Come in." The headmistress spoke in her thick Scottish accent. They all ran in, shoving past one another to sit in the chairs provided. McGonagall went to her side of the desk and sat down. The cousins all subconsciously linked hands and squeezed them tight. "Now, you have been gathered here today for a family matter." The cousins gasped.
"Who's injured?" Louis spoke up.
"If you would all be quiet, I could tell you." McGonagall warned. "No one in the family is injured."
"So why are we here?" Hugo asked.
"WILL EVERYONE STOP INTERRUPTING, FOR HEAVEN'S SAKE?" McGonagall shouted. They all nodded slowly, terrified of the strict old woman. "Thank you. I have called you in today because a family member had to go to hospital last night." The cousins gasped. "Do NOT interrupt. Louis, your sister Victoire was taken into hospital last night."
"Is she okay?" Louis fretted. McGonagall's nostrils flared, but she did not shout at him.
"She is fine. She went into hospital because she had gone into labour." Lily gasped and smiled happily. "All is fine now, and she has given birth to a healthy baby girl, with a good weight of 6 pounds and 8 ounces."
"Do you... Has she been named yet?" Rose nibbled her lip anxiously.
"No, Victoire and Theodore-"
"Teddy." The cousins all interrupted her at once.
"Will you please stop saying things at the same time? As I was saying, Victoire and 'Teddy' wanted the six of you to name her, as you are closest to them, along with suggestions from James and Dominique." The six cousins nodded eagerly. "They have given you until Monday to think up a name." A hushed chatter came between the cousins as they started discussing. "Don't you have lessons to go to?"
"Oh, sorry Professor. Shall we owl her the suggestions or tell you?"
"Owl them of course. I have nothing else to do with the matter." McGonagall replied curtly then ushered them out of the door. They walked down the long corridor that was the go-between the great staircase and the head's office. When they finally reached the staircase, they all turned to face one another.
"Shall we come up with a joint suggestion or separate?" Louis started the conversation.
"I think a joint one. It would be easier." Rose replied.
"But how will we decide?" Lily interrupted.
"Well, is everyone free on Sunday? We could meet up somewhere then." Hugo suggested.
"The Slytherin's can't, we have Quidditch. We can't miss that either, we need to train for the match next week. With Alex Pucey out for a cracked skull last match, we have a replacement Beater who needs to learn how the team works." Albus obviously had his Quidditch mind on.
"There's more to life than Quidditch, Albus." Rose said, rolling her eyes.
"Oh gee, tell our opponents that we have a Beater who is rubbish. Good one Al." Lily replied sarcastically. "Huey, tell no one." Hugo nodded and pretended to zip up his lips.
"I think we should group together in small groups, maybe one from each family, and Louis and I can go together." Lucy spoke up.
"That's actually a good idea. Well done Luce, you DO have a brain!" Albus teased. They had had this running joke since First Year because in their first lesson together the teacher had made a remark about her missing a brain after she did a spell wrong and burned off her eyebrows.
"Sugar, is that the time?" Lily gasped after she saw a clock on the next floor down. "We've missed half of our first lesson already! Come on Huey, it's Potions first!" Lily grabbed onto Hugo and yanked him down the stairs. He stumbled on an invisible step and had to have the family all pull him out.
"Thanks for that, Lily!" He said sarcastically. Lily ignored him and carried on pulling him down the stairs. Luckily he was more prepared this time and didn't fall over. When they finally reached the dungeons they burst in and stopped to catch their breath.
"Sorry Professor. We had to go to the head's office." Lily panted, quickly sitting down next to Tally. Hugo sat down next to her and slumped his head onto the table. The teacher glared at them but continued lecturing the class on the differences of Horned Slugs and Flobberworms. Lily sighed. It was going to be a long day.
"Just before you leave, class, I do believe it's homework night!" Hagrid, the Care of Magical Creatures teacher, called out to the students running up the grass.
"Oh but Professor, it's nearly the weekend, and it's nearly the holidays, and it's nearly OWLs! Please let us off, just today." Lily pleaded.
"Erm... Well, if you insist. Homework is revision! Have a good weekend!" He shouted, but the class had already rushed to the Great Hall and to their respective common rooms to get ready for the party tonight. Lily and Tally shoved past everyone else, eager to go to the kitchens first for some food. They reached the painting of the fruit bowl, tickled the pear, and swung open the door. They were quickly greeted by around 20 elves, all asking the same question.
"What would you be wanting to eat?" A tiny elf at the front whispered.
"Hello, Bibby! Could we have some sandwiches and some tea and cake please?" Lily answered, walking over to the two armchairs by the fire. The elves nodded and ran off to prepare the food. Within a minute they were running back with far more sandwiches than needed and 2 whole cakes. The girls thanked them and started stuffing their faces. "Luckily these dresses are stretchy!" Tally laughed and agreed. They relaxed on the chairs for over an hour until Albus, Scorpius and Dylan rushed in.
"There you are! We couldn't find you!" Scorpius rushed forward and gave Lily a hug. "I was worried." He whispered in her ear. She smiled.
"We wanted to grab a bite to eat now so we could have more time to get ready." She whispered back, leaning forward so their foreheads and noses touched. Grey eyes looked into green in a very special moment. The others were completely silent in expectation, although Albus was avoiding looking towards them. Tally breathed in hopefully, causing Lily and Scorpius to turn to face her. She sighed loudly.
"Honestly, will you guys ever get together? You're almost as bad as Dylan and me!" Tally exclaimed. Lily rolled her eyes.
"You won't win this. Come on, let's go. We need to make ourselves look beautiful." Lily wrapped an arm around Scorpius and another around Tally.
"You always look beautiful." Dylan said to Tally. Tally laughed and gave him a hug, letting go of Lily. She shrugged and grabbed Albus instead.
"So Al, have you got any ideas for the baby's name?" Lily enquired.
"Well, I've been thinking about it. Do you like Carmen?" He asked. Lily pulled a face.
"That's too... Every day prostitute." Lily picked her words carefully.
"How about Sarah?" Albus suggested.
"Too plain." Lily reasoned.
"Fair enough. Josie?"
"That's quite nice actually. Remember that one. What about Joanna?" Lily asked.
"That's okay." Albus said after some thought.
"Didn't Teddy date a Joanna in his 4th year?" Scorpius interrupted.
"Oh damn, yeah. Not Joanna then. What about Scarlet?" Albus wondered.
"Same as Carmen. Boring and whore-y. I quite like Emma. Remember, she's part Veela, she needs a beautiful rare name." Lily pulled a face at the name Scarlet too. Albus had bad taste in names. She would have to make sure he didn't name his children.
"I love Emma too, but it's not very rare or Veela. Why not Charlotte? Charlie for short. It's French, like Victoire's family, and pretty."
"Charlie is a boy's name!" Lily exclaimed. They walked in silence for a little while, pondering different names. Then Lily had such a great idea she stopped in her tracks. "I've got it! We have two flower names already, in the family. So we need another flower name. We need something French, and we need something beautiful and rare. There's a flower called a Violet, right?"
"It's not French." Tally broke into Lily's deep thought.
"Hang on, I wasn't finished! What do you think of Violette? It's beautiful, rare if you're in England, French, and overall quite Veela, don't you think?"
"Violette... Violette Lupin... I think that's quite nice actually. How about we give them the names Violette and Josie, and let them pick? They will have the other names too." Albus thought aloud.
"Good idea. Remind me to go to the Owlery tomorrow." By this time, they had reached the dungeons and had entered the common room. They reached the top of their respective stairs leading to their dormitories. "What time does the party start, and where is it?" Lily asked.
"Meet us up here at 7. I'm guessing you aren't going to have dinner?" Albus asked. The girls shook their heads. "Okay. See you soon then. It's ten past five already." The girls looked at each other in shock and rushed downstairs. They had less than two hours to get ready? They threw open the door to their dorm, the handle crashing into the wall at the side. They hurriedly grabbed their makeup bags and rushed into the bathroom. They discussed the makeup plans and began to do their makeup on each other. Half an hour later, they were both done, and they both looked beautiful. Tally had pale gold eyes and pearly pink lips, whilst Lily had soft grey eyeshadow and a dusky pink lipstick to match her dress. Lily covered the lipstick in a clear gloss and blew a kiss at herself in the mirror. Tally laughed.
"Next stop, hair. What are you doing with yours?" Lily asked.
"I was just going to straighten it. Maybe French plait my fringe sideways." Tally walked to the mirror and started playing with her hair. "What about you?"
"That sounds nice. I think I will do an updo thing, but leave my fringe out?" Lily made a rough version of the style. Tally nodded.
"That would look nice. Do you want me to help you?"
"Ladies and Gentlemen, for one night, and one night only, may I present Miss Natalya Gorroba and Miss Lily Potter!" Lily joked, pretending to be a TV presenter. Tally ran up the stairs, doing jazz hands. Lily quickly followed, doing a fake Charleston dance. "Whatcha think? Do we look okay?" Lily smoothed down the skirt and ran her fingers through her fringe.
"You both look gorgeous." Scorpius said, kissing Lily on the cheek.
"You look nice." Albus said. Lily nodded and smiled. He opened his mouth but whatever he was going to say next was drowned out by his girlfriend running up the stairs, jumping into his arms and kissing him passionately. She was wearing black 6 inch wedges, black (extremely short) hot pants, and a T-shirt that used to be quite popular when they were very young. It was a burgundy colour and had in white capitals the word 'geek' across the chest. Lily and Tally exchanged looks.
"Ally! Do you like my top? It's vintage! Don't you think I look hot? I thought it would be perfect for me because I'm such a geek!" She squealed. The girls exchanged looks again.
"Come on, we're gonna be late." Albus avoided the questions and grabbed onto her hand. "It's the 7th floor, right, Scor?"
When Scorpius and Albus had said the party was good, they weren't lying. The music was good, and it seemed like everyone in the 3 years had turned up. Even Rose Weasley! Someone had managed to get alcohol, so everyone was even happier than before. Everyone was speaking to each other, no matter what year or house. It was a change, a good change, but a change all the same. By tomorrow, it would probably be back to normal. Lily had long since lost Scorpius and Tally and Dylan and Albus in the group of dancing bodies. She poured another cup of some blue alcoholic stuff. She didn't know the name of it, but it tasted good and made a warm, fuzzy feeling course through her veins. She walked over to a nearby sofa and collapsed into the buttery soft leather. Her heels, which she had used a comforting charm on, still hurt like hell. She wouldn't take them off for fear of losing them, but she would relish the small time she sat down for. She took a large gulp of the drink and sighed deeply. She sat in silence for a minute or so until she felt the sofa dent again with someone's weight. She took a deep breath then put on a fake smile and turned to face them.
"Oh, it's you! Hi!" She grinned a real smile and hugged the boy sitting next to her. "Are you alright?"
"Yeah, I'm pretty good. Are you okay? You looked a little upset." He stole her drink and took a sip. "Ooh, this is good. What is it?"
"I don't know what it's called. It's blue and it tastes good. Go get yourself a cup if you want. Top me up too!" She exclaimed, handing him the empty cup. He nodded and pushed through a group of 6th years to the drinks table. Lily smiled again and leant back into her seat. She loved making other people do things for her. He quickly returned, carrying several cups filled with the blue drink.
"I thought I might as well get loads rather than having to keep going back to the table." He explained to Lily's inquisitive look.
"Fair enough." She said, taking a cup and having a long swig. "These heels are killing." She moaned, pulling them off her feet and massaging her swollen toes. They soon finished the cups and this time Lily went to get a drink. The blue stuff had run out so Lily picked up a bottle of some plain vodka. She was going to leave it at that but her drunken mind made her grin evilly and bite her lip in scheming happiness. She found several slices of lemon that were being placed in drinks and a salt shaker. She hurried back to the sofa and flopped down next to him. She placed the 3 objects on the table and poured them both some cups of vodka. They carried on in this fashion until there was only enough for two cups. This was when Lily's plan came into action.
"Let's play a game. I present salt, lemon and vodka. Drink the shot, lick the salt, eat the lemon. Sound good?"
"Only if you play too." He whispered in her ear seductively. "Where does the salt go?" He asked. Lily poured out two equal amounts of vodka into two cups. She dipped her finger into the vodka bottle and wiped it onto her neck. She picked up the shaker and poured a small amount onto the damp patch.
"Vodka." She ordered. He drank it quickly. "Salt." He licked it off her neck, making the hairs on her arms and neck stand on end and causing a fine line of goosebumps to travel down her back. "And the lemon." She whispered, putting the rind in between her lips.
"Fuck that." He groaned, pulling it out of her mouth and replacing it with his lips. She was slightly shocked, but the drunken haze had settled deep into her brain. She smiled into the kiss and pushed him backwards so they were lying on the sofa, her on top. They made out for some time before they broke apart for breath.
"Why don't we go somewhere quieter?" He asked, sitting up. She nodded eagerly and jumped up, picking up her shoes and pushing open a door that appeared right next to the sofa. She blew a low whistle when she saw the room that was behind the door. It had a large 4 poster bed with a deep carpet that Lily happily curled her toes into. "Wow. So, this is nice." He smiled lightly. She turned to lock the door and pulled him to the bed, where she swiftly began removing his clothes. He was in his underwear in seconds. She grinned and started kissing him again. He pulled off her dress quickly and made a trail of kisses down from her lips to her shoulder. "This bra is definitely in the way." He said huskily, snapping her bra strap. She gasped and giggled.
"Take it off me then." She whispered, leaning forward. He deftly unhooked it and threw it over his shoulder.
"That's much better." He grinned. "What about these knickers? They're in the way too." She slid them off. He smiled and restarted the trail of kisses down past her navel and stopped at her hips. She pulled off his boxers and he kicked them off his feet. He joined his lips back to hers and she shivered with anticipation on what was going to happen.
"This... It's..." She started, unsure of how to phrase her next sentence. "I've never done this before." She rushed.
"It's okay, neither have I. Why don't we just let our instincts take over?" He soothed. She nodded, pleased with his answer and did exactly that. The reasonable part of her brain was telling her to stop, but her body wanted him and the alcohol was confusing her thoughts. She told the reasonable side to shut up and she leant forward to kiss him.
"Just, go slow." She whispered anxiously. He nodded and trailed his fingers down her stomach to between her thighs. He stroked her clit and she moaned. "I'm scared."
"It's okay. Just relax." He positioned himself above her and slowly pushed in. She gasped. Her fingernails dug into his back, leaving small crescents over his shoulder blades. He eased out of her then pushed back in. Lily's breath caught in her throat. They carried on in this fashion until Lily commanded him to get a move on. Limbs tangled together, the heavy breathing growing increasingly louder, messy kisses were exchanged, completely wrapped up in the moment. He managed to hold his orgasm in until she came, moaning loudly in pure bliss. They lay next to each other in silence for some while, content to just breathe in each other's air.
"That... Was... Amazing..." Lily panted. He nodded and pulled her forward for a hug. They stayed in this hug until they both fell into a deep, happy sleep. Little did they realise that tomorrow, when the alcohol cleared, they would have the greatest shock of their lives.
A/N I know I said I wouldn't update for a week until my new phone arrived but it was locked to T-Mobile so I have to wait for ages for it to unlock and I'm bored so I hope you guys liked it! Took me just over a day to write, I think, so I hope you enjoy it! I was too wrapped up and smothered with ideas not to write immediately! Plus I finished day 3 ages ago but didn't go near a computer for a week. WHO DO YOU THINK SHE SLEPT WITH?! :O review saying who you think :D Hope you are all having a lovely Easter, remember to brush your teeth after all that chocolate!
PS anyone who has any of the names suggested and the answer was rude, I didn't mean to offend! I like all these names that's why I picked them! Sadly, I cannot say the same thing for the 'geek' tops.
Question of the day: Who did she sleep with? My only clue is they've been mentioned already!
