Lily POV

"Lils!" I heard a harsh whisper. 

"Lilyyyyy!" Another harsh whisper.

"Wha- bloody hell, Ally. And you too Mar." I whispered back. 

"Whatever, you're awake. Now get up!"Mar whisper-yelled.

"What t-time is it?" I said, yawning halfway through my sentence. I got up and flattened the sheets on my bed. 

"Irrelevant. Anyways, come on." Alice said.

"Wait, won't we wake Mary and Dorcas up? You know, the roommates we seem to not give a shit about." I whispered. 

"Nah. Last night, while you were off in the library on a little rendezvous with little Jamsie Potter, Ally, Mary, Dorcas and I were plotting how we would get ready. They should be waking up in a bit." Marlene shrugged, grabbing my arm. "C'mon, let's go shower."

"What time is the Yule Ball anyways?" I say as I grab my shampoo. 

"It's from 8pm to midnight." a new voice says.

"Dorcas?" I said in confusion. 

"Yep, its me. Lumos." Dorcas said as a small ball of light appeared at the tip of her wand. Dorcas was very pretty. She had dark skin, thick braided hair, hazel eyes and long eyelashes. 

"You guys have got to be more quiet." A quiet mutter said. It came from Mary, who could honestly be Marlene's twin if Mary didn't have brown eyes, as she has blue eyes. 

"I call dibs on first shower!" I yell suddenly.

"Don't be thick, Lils. There's 4 showers. You can bathe in your fancy ass prefect bathroom." Marlene said sarcastically as she grabbed a fluffy white bathrobe with rubber ducks on it. 

"Fine, I'll use that bathroom. See you guys in like thirty minutes." 

I grabbed my bath stuff on the way out of my dorm as well as a casual change of clothes. After all, I couldn't walk around the castle with a full-length blue gown at three in the morning. As I was reaching the common room, I heard a familiar sarcastic voice. 

"Am I to believe what I just saw? Ickle Lilykins sneaking out of Gryffindor tower at three forty nine in the morning?" Sirius' sarcastic voice rang out.

"Can a bitch not go shower in peace?" I retort back. 

"Why the hell are you heading towards the boys' showers then? James isn't even up yet."

"What does James- oh, Sirius Orion Black get YOUR MIND OUT OF THE GUTTER!" I say loudly, but not quite yell. Acting quickly, I pull out my shampoo bottle and wack him in the head.
