HALLOWEEN ARRIVED QUICKLY, to say the least. Perhaps it was because it was their last year or maybe things were just that way, but time was moving a mile a minute. But low and behold on the morning of October 31, 2021, everyone was dressed up and best of all, it was a Sunday, so that meant no classes, how lucky. It was as if the universe had planned itself for this year. Lily and the girls were dressed as Disney princesses, per promise. But no, no, they did not try and make it cutesy, this was their last year — this meant going all out. 

So that is how Lily Edwards found herself in a tea-length dark blue dress with a white apron and black character shoes. Her hair was tied back with a large bow and she had put on the makeup to fit the part. She truly looked like Belle. On her way to the Great Hall, after passing devils and vampires and Spice Girls and M&Ms, she found Nyah Thomas dressed very similarly, but in yellow.

Close behind her was Ben, who was dressed as a very dashing Disney prince, which made Lily grin from ear to ear. When she entered the hall, she spotted Anna and Kristoff almost immediately and boy did they look cute. She could tell that Ruby had spent extra time on her hair. 

Though, what she was not expecting was James Sirius Potter, in all his glory in a billowing white blouse, breachers, knee high boots and a proud look on his face. He looked glorious. Behind him, were the other boys dressed similarly, but Lorcan wore a full princely suit and it seemed as if James had the components for one with him, he was just not wearing them. 

Much to her confusion, James looked behind her and held up his finger before winking at her. He then proceeded to approach a first year, who was preciously also dressed as a princess and he got down on one knee. He took one of the rings off of his fingers and mock proposed to her, making her giggle endlessly. 

"I do believe you are the princess I am looking for is that right ...?" James declared loudly to the rest of the school.

"Annabelle," she said, with a grin and a slight giggle.

"Annabelle," he repeated with a sincere smile. He then tried to place the ring on her finger, but due to her small hands and his rather large ones, it fell off immediately. 

"It seems as if it doesn't want to fit, Prince James," she said with a furrowed brow. James laughed lightly at the name she had given him. 

"It appears so, do you think it'll work on Lily?" James asked with a whisper.

"I do think so, she's really pretty," Annabelle whispered back.

"I know, wish me luck, will you?" James said, as he got up off the ground. She enthusiastically nodded. He then headed over to Lily, but as he did, he transfigured the ring to be smaller and thinner.
