Epilogue

Lily walked over at the end of the evening, dressed in a long pearly white strapless dress reaching the floor. Attached to her arm was James in a James Bond-esque black tux. Everyone was silent as they watched them move to the centre of the dance floor.

Bethany, in a pink knee-length puffy dress and tiara, grinned at Tawny (wearing a little green sundress with yellow flowers on it). They'd managed to get the last dance idea approved by Dumbledore and they were waiting to see if Bethany would win the bet.

As the Heads circled the floor, neither of them even thought about getting together, or having a kiss. When it was over, Bethany glared at her hands. “Ugh!” she muttered. “It didn't work!”

Tawny and the boys shrugged. “It was worth a try…” they told her consolingly.

The next day, Lily and James were talking (and occasionally kissing) when James decided something.

“We should go out.”

“Huh?” Lily asked. “Why?”

“Because I want us to,” James replied if it was the most obvious thing. “And we'd be able to kiss properly…”

Lily sighed. “Okay!” she replied. James was amazed that she'd given in so quickly.

“You sure?” he asked. She nodded in reply. “Okay, that's settled. Let's tell the others.”

In the end, nobody won the bet.

Well, I'm sure that wasn't good at all but I really don't care as long as it's OVER!!
