Bianca stood outside of the common room, turning over the bottle of Polyjuice Potion in her hand. She wasn't sure she wanted to do this anymore; what if Tessa suspected? She already felt guilty enough for not being able to talk to her as soon as she arrived, but what if Tessa somehow found out about it all? "Oh, Jane, come quickly," she whispered, perfectly manicured nails digging into her palms.

Jane came running a minute or two later. "Sorry I'm late. I had to run all the way down from the towers," she puffed, taking a moment to catch her breath.

"Are you ready for this?" Bianca asked quietly, shifting on her feet and handing her the bottle. "Remember that you'll have to welcome Tessa back and ask her how everything was. And act like I would."

"Yeah, I think I am," Jane said with a quick nod. "How long do you think you'll be?"

"Just forty-five minutes. Anything more, and they might get suspicious. That should give me enough time to snoop around a bit, put things back in order, and get out before anyone really notices. We'll meet back here exactly forty-fie minutes after you enter the party."

"Sounds good. I'll make up some excuse like I had to go to the bathroom or something. Wait, when I drink the potion, will I have makeup on and everything? Because it would look really suspicious otherwise."

"Of course. The potion is good for about an hour. Fifteen minutes to do your makeup will be enough."

"Alright. I guess it's now or never, huh?" Jane took the vial of Polyjuice Potion and uncorked it, cringing at the smell.

Bianca turned around, murmuring the password into the wall and leading Jane into the common room. "I'm going to need to give you some clothes, and fix your hair... maybe fifteen minutes wasn't enough after all. We need to be faster."

"As long as I look like you would, it doesn't matter," Jane told her sister, draining the vial. The taste nearly made her gag. Soon enough, a peculiar feeling began twisting in her stomach. Her features didn't have to change much, thankfully, but it was still weird, especially when wearing her glasses made her head hurt and she had to take them off.

Bianca dug through her trunk, finding a nice change of clothes and handing them to Jane, along with a hairbrush. "Be fast, and then we can do your makeup and go."

She nodded, making her way to the girl's dormitory to change. Jane reappeared a couple minutes later, hair smoothed and shiny. "My old clothes and the brush are in your trunk, by the way."

Bianca sat her sister down, makeup kit already opened at her feet. The Slytherin worked in grim, nervous silence until she was sure that Jane looked perfect. Applying makeup to her own face from a third-person point of view was surreal, but past attempts had already made the astonishment pass long ago.

"How can you stand all of this stuff?" Jane asked eventually. "The most I've ever done is mascara, lip gloss, and some foundation or concealer or whatever it is. And even that felt like a lot."

"I like it," Bianca answered, shrugging. "I think it feels nice."

"It looks nice, don't get me wrong. Actually, this is one of the first times I've felt pretty, really..." Jane paused, shrugging off the comment. "I guess I'm just not used to it."

"Don't be like that, of course you're pretty," Bianca sighed. "You're the prettiest girl I know, in fact. I mean, you even have a boyfriend and everything."

"Really? You're not just saying that because you're my sister?" Jane might've teared up if it weren't for the fact that she would ruin Bianca's work by doing so.

"Of course not, Jane," Bianca said softly, taking her sister's hand. "I've always thought you were beautiful. Even in that time that... that we didn't really..." She sniffled, glancing away from her sister.

Jane leaned forward to hug her sister tightly. "Thank you, and... I'm sorry, Bianca, for spending so much time away and not talking to you and getting a boyfriend and letting the novelty consume me for the first couple of weeks..." she rambled. "I'm glad it's not like that anymore... I missed you."
