Lucianna was nervous.

This party was for her, and that caused her a great deal of anxiety. The spotlight would be on her and that's one thing Lucianna hated.

She had elected to wear a red wrap skirt alongside a black band tshirt she had robbed from her dad. It was simple but that's all she wanted; she didn't want to draw attention to herself. Alongside this outfit she wore her necklace that Fred had brought her, her black military style boots and her mothers ring. Her hair was simply, straightened; she looked at herself in the mirror, she wish she could look like Hermione at times, her hair was beautiful. The big waves and the way it framed her face was something Lucianna craved for. Then it hit her. She could have it.

She took a minute and closed her eyes. As she did her hair started to curl, not into tight curls like Hermione's but turned into what many would consider beach waves. "Wow." A voice rang out, Lucianna turned round to see Ginny standing there looking incredibly impressed. "Lucianna, your hair looks so cute! I love it!" She exclaimed, earning a chuckle from Lucianna. "Thanks Ginny!" She replied.

"You ready?" Ginny asked, her face twisting into a mischievous grin. Lucianna smiled and nodded, "let's go then, got a party to enter!" Ginny exclaimed while walking to Lucianna and linking her arm with hers.

As Lucianna had wandered down the stairs a loud chorus of "happy birthday," rang out and music started to fill the room. There were lots of students in the common room, most sat on any surface available while others stood around.

Fred had quickly walked over to Lucianna and wrapped an arm around her and quickly the two had joined in with a small group of people dancing. They all swung their arms and legs in stupid manners, not caring how they looked. Lucianna and Fred laughed and giggled with one another. They both felt so care free.

"I'm going to get a drink!" Lucianna shouted at Fred over the music. Fred nodded and replied "okay, I'll come with I need to sit!" He laughed. The two bopped and weaved through the hoards to teenagers. As they did so Lucianna spotted a familiar face. It was Seamus.

"Sea-," Lucianna went to shout his name when all of a sudden, Seamus was pinned to a nearby wall by Dean and their lips connected. "Well good on him!" Fred whispered in Lucianna's ear, "go on!" Lucianna heard George who was stood nearby shout, while sticking his fingers in his mouth and whistling. Lucianna smiled. She knew they would end up together or at least making out.

The party was in full swing, and Lucianna was in high spirits. Fred had gone to get them more drinks, so Lucianna was perched on the side of an arm chair while Dean and Seamus were sat on a table nearby.

"So, are you two?" Lucianna asked while pointing to Dean and Seamus. Her voice was laced with mischievous laughter; Seamus blushed while Dean laughed and laced his arm around his shoulders. "Yep!" Dean exclaimed, while staring at Seamus who couldn't help but blush. "I mean, took him long enough to get the hint that I was interested." Dean laughed while Seamus gently elbowed him in the ribs. "You didn't exactly make it easy!" Seamus professed, while Dean screeched with laughter. Dean then grabbed Seamus into a light headlock and kissed the top of his head, making the shorter boy blush even more. Lucianna smiled, she was happy for them.

"Lucianna there's a letter for you," it was Ron. As Lucianna stood up, Ron pushed a white envelope into her hand. "Where did this come from?" She asked, Ron shook his head. "A first year asked me to give it to you, said they were given it by another student." Lucianna nodded and thanked Ron. She tore open the envelope. Inside contained a letter.
