~The Graduation Party -Part III~
°°°
The Big night has come. Today is the day. The big day. The huge day. The 5 years from graduation’ party day. Not that I am excited. I only have a little tingle in my tummy. And no, I am not pregnant. I just have little anticipation.
Oliver called me yesterday. Oliver, the cute waiter, remember. And he asked me out on a coffee. I couldn’t say no. I mean the man has the most beautiful behind I have ever seen. Anyway I had a great time. I really got to know him, he is an awesome guy. I like him.
Back to the present… Alice was no where seen in the apartment … Again. She clearly said to me ‘Lily tomorrow is the party be home at 5 sharp… do not be late’, and now who is late. If she isn’t here in one minute I will apparate at Frank’s place and burn her magical butt.
~After one minute~
The time has come the burn the witch. I grabbed the torch that they had for emergences like these and apparated at Frank’s. But there was only Frank there watching TV. But where was Alice. This is interesting. Why aren’t they together?
“Hey Frank” I yelled and Frank jumped from his comfy seat. He turned around and glared at me. I just laughed.
“Hey Lily, what is with the torch” he asked confused.
“Oh… I …em… I was just… Hunting for rabbits” I tried.
“Rabbits?” Frank raised his eyebrow. Why don’t people these days don’t believe I’m hunting for rabbits. Off course it‘s not true, but it could be. I could go hunting. Maybe I will go tomorrow. Yes tomorrow ill go hunting for rabbits. And they will see…
“Hey Frank, where is Alice” I asked and sat down next to him on the couch.
“I don’t know, I thought she was with you, she said that she will be the whole day with you” He looked at me questioningly.Alice wasn’t with him and she told me she was. And told him that she was with me. She is hiding something and I will have to find out what.
“Oh yeah, I forgot… She is waiting for me at home… with the rabbits we caught” Man I’m a lousy liar.
“Frank it was nice seeing you here, but I have to go now. Alice is waiting for me… apparently with a bag of rabbits” I finished and apparated from there leaving Frank utterly confused.
Back in our studio apartment I was all alone, without Alice. And I was thinking. Why would Alice lie to us? Was she cheating on him? That couldn’t be possible. She loved him and he loved her. They were together since forever. Maybe they were born together. Back in the Hogwarts days one time I though that they were Siamese twins I soon found out that my idea was impossible and simply nasty… Back to Alice and Frank. But maybe that is it. They have been together forever. Maybe Alice is bored and wants to go out and go wild. But that doesn’t sound like Alice. But nether does lying to us.
“Hey Lily, I'm back” I heard Alice shout from the front door “I was over at Franks and we forgot about the time” she said and opened the fridge and took out a bottle of water.
“Alice is there something you would like to tell me” I asked her carefully. She looked at me questioningly.
“Oh Lily I'm sorry I didn’t mean to spill wine on your favorite shirt. I'm sorry, I’m sorry. Could you ever forgive me” She pleaded with those eyes.
“You spilled wine all over my shirt. Oh my god. I think I'm going to be sick”.
“Oh Lily… Wait you didn’t know about the shirt. Then what are you talking about, because we both know that it wasn’t my fault that your skinny jeans were colored red. How was I supposed to see that red sock when I was doing the laundry”.
Ok I'm officially devastated. Alice has ruined all of my favorite clothes. After I find out why has she been lying to me. I am going shopping with her… And she is buying.
“Alice before I find out, what else have you ruined that is in my possession, please tell me where were you today” I asked clearly irritated.
“Oh, I told you Lily, at Frank’s” She told me uncomfortably.
“Do not lie to me Alice Prewett” I glared and tapped my foot. Oh I like this look of an angry mother.
“Oh ok, but swear that you u won’t tell anybody especially Frank” whispered Alice and sat on the sofa.
“I swear” I said as I sat next to her. She looked at me seriously ant took out a small red velvet box “Oh my god you are going t o propose to me” I jumped screaming.
“Don’t be stupid Lily. I'm not going to propose to you, but I'm to Frank” She said shyly.
I immediately sat down and looked at her “Are you serious?” I asked her.
“Well Frank is shy and if I wait for him I will be an old lady with hundreds of smelly cats around me by the time get gets the nerve to propose to me” She sighed “And this way is faster”.
“Why didn’t you tell me” I asked confused.
“I didn’t want you to know Lily. Today was looking for a ring” She opened the red velvet box revealing a golden ring with some engravings on it “It says ‘Semper simul’ and it means together forever”.
“Aww. Isn’t that sweet.” I said and hugged Alice. “Alice I don’t want to ruin the soft mushy moment, but we have to get ready for the party” I said and jumped up.
“Oh you are right, lets get the party started Lily” She said and ran to the bathroom.
“Oh no you don’t. I'm first Alice. Get back here” |
