Who was Lillian Albus McGonagall? No one really knew her, she was always the one studying or playing Quidditch with her brother, or playing pranks around the school at Hogwarts. But that wasn't what people actually knew her for, she took the blame f...

Lillian's POV
It was finally the day, I hadn't exactly been dreading going to the Yule Ball. However, I've never been to something so fancy and had fun before. When I was doing things for my mother, she would always make me watch and see how much fun she was having, then punish me after if the slightest thing went wrong. Funnily enough I got invited to sleep with Ginny and Hermione in there dorm, I made my own little bed on the floor and we all had a sleep over together, so we could get ready the next day for the Yule Ball. Nobody yet had seen our dresses, I was sneaky enough to hide it in the girls dormitory away from prying eyes, because know for a fact one of them would likely try and wear it.
I yawned rolling around in my bed as the sun come through one of the many windows. I also heard the others toss and turn, as if they were also waking up from a good night sleep, all of us agreed to get to sleep at a decent time so we weren't so cranky today, and I happily agreed. To be honest with them, I never get a good night sleep especially in the boys dorm. It's either a mumbling Lee, a snoring Fred or a sleep talking George. Which George on the other hand, was quite cute when he spoke in his sleep, but sometimes I'd much prefer to just get a goodnight sleep and dream of the good things ahead.
I sat in my make shift bed on the floor, and yawned again stretching out my arms. I glanced over and noticed Ginny hanging off the bed awake, but barely function.
"Nice look Ginny" her face contorted into a glare.
"Oh shut it McGonagall, I'm trying to sleep" I scoffed at her and shook my head.
"Ohh shut it Weasley, you just want more sleep to look good for Neville" she shot up in her bed and looked down at me with her mouth agape.
"you.... You want to look good for George" she tried so hard to come up with a comeback, but for she miserably failed at it.
"of course I do, he is my boyfriend" she slouched in defeat and a smile reached her face as she smoothed down her messy bed hair. We both broke out in laughter, and following that so did Hermione.
"I have a feeling that this is going to be a great night" Hermione piped in as our laughter died down.
"Me to" Ginny agreed
"Me Three" and then I piped in as well. We both broke out in laughter, and I smiled that for once I didn't have just guys as friends, but I also had some girlfriends and I knew deep down inside that we'll all have a good life. But not before the worst of times come.
For the rest of the day, Ginny, Hermione and I ran around like our lives depended on it. I guess getting ready for a ball is very much time consuming, so far I had done both Ginny and Hermione's Hair and Makeup and well both of them were patiently waiting for me so they could go crazy with my hair and makeup.
"Now sit your ass down, I have a masterpiece to create" Ginny pointed at a vanity which was in there dorm and I sat down in front of the mirror. It was like magic, but with your hands, she tugged and pulled, but the finishing piece was amazing. It was a very simple, elegant up-do and she added baby's breathe for extra touches. Ginny then moved onto my makeup, and it was very simple, because I knew for sure I didn't want to distract from the overall look I was going for. The makeup ended being a nude lip, with a light shimmer pink shadow and mascara to add definition to my eyes. We all looked at each other with much accomplishment, because I was surprised I could pull something like this off.. I'm not usually the one going to Balls.
"ohhh my bag... I can't forget that" Hermione zoomed off across the room to find her purse and I waited patiently as the two looked yet again like headless chickens. I laughed to myself as I watched them in amusement.
"come on you two, the boys will be waiting near the great hall..." I smirked at the two as they looked up at me.
"ohhh don't give me that look Elizabeth.... It's not like that" I snickered as Ginny riled herself up.
"Oh just shut it women and lets go" they both laughed and followed me out of there dorm and down the common room, for some reason though as we walked down the dorm stairs I felt this weird sensation inside of me.
"Nervous" Hermione's voice piped up beside of me as we walked together through the common room portrait.
"Just a little...." I smiled shyly looking down at my heels as we walked through the corridors.
"no need to be nervous... it's just George" I rolled my eyes at her and laughed lightly.
"Just George...." I giggled a little at the thought that it was just George, but he made me fall into a million pieces. He was my rock in away, and never have I felt like this for any one. "It isn't just George... his my everything" I said the last words just above a whisper, but Ginny seemed to hear the words that left my mouth.
"I so hear the wedding bells" a girly squeal left her mouth as we all made it down to the stairs in front of the great hall, and my heart beat was going through the roof.
I looked down at myself, and caressed the soft fabric of my dress and as my foot took its first step down the grand stair case towards the great hall, I look up and my eyes meet George. My heart stopped as his eyes met mine, and that melting smile of his took my breath away.
