CHAPTER FIVE
The weekend had finally arrived, and nerves had overtaken Angel. The girl was simply a wreck, pacing back and forth through the common room while her friends stared at her strangely.
"Lilith!" Daphne called out, breaking her from her trance. Angel hugged her and turned to face her. "Stop freaking out, you'll be fine."
This hardly relaxed Angel, but it was nice that her friends were trying. The brunette girl next to Daphne then added, "Now let's make you look HOT!"
Angel laughed slightly at her friend; she was ever the fashionista. Pansy took Angel by her hand and dragged her up to the dorm, with Daphne staying behind with the girls.
Pansy and Angel talked to each other as the former rummaged through the latest cupboard. "Girl, I love your outfits. Seriously, you need to go shopping with me sometime."
Angel giggled and agreed. She had never been shopping with a friend before, unless you count buying Hogwarts supplies with the Weasleys. Then again, they weren't really her friends.
Angel inspected herself in the mirror and smiled genuinely. She loved what Pansy had done with her. She turned to the mentioned brunette and twirled, Pansy complimenting her.
The two walked down the stairs of the dorms and entered the common room, catching sight of their group of friends.
"Oh my god! I love that dress on you!" Daphne squealed at her newly acquired friend.
Before she could answer, she was picked up by Draco and walked off. "Draykins! Put me down!"
Draco took her back up to her dorm and dropped her on her bed. He looked at her before saying 'no' and chucking a jacket at her.
Although it annoyed Angel, she had a warm feeling inside. She felt loved knowing that the boy was just being protective, like a brother would.
Angel pouted dramatically but didn't make a move to take it off, only storming off back down the stairs.

An hour or so had passed, and students had already started to leave Hogwarts for the first Hogsmeade Weekend. Angel couldn't leave the school without raising suspicions, so she had resorted to sneaking away from Hogsmeade when she and her friends got there. The girls had agreed to be her alibi, so she was ever so grateful for them.
Now, as Angel walked through the streets of the small town with Daphne and Pansy, they talked loudly in excitement for what Daphne and Pansy called 'Lilith's date', although every time they had said this, the girl would protest loudly.
Angel smiled at the two girls, giving them a quick hug each. "Okay. I'm going to go now, but have fun today and thank you so much for being my alibi."
Pansy laughed at the girl and replied, "Well, of course, my dear."
