Christine woke up lying in her bed. The sun poured in through old Victorian windows. The manor in which her father and grandfather lived was so different from everywhere else in America. Then again her father was the man Secretary of Magic to the President and he had always cared for British things. She swung her feet out of the bed letting them hit the soft carpet. Today she was going to the Burrow to stay with Fred and George. They were really excited. She was going to help them look for a place this summer, even move in with them, as this was her last year at Hogwarts. She would go back of course to help Dumbledore. The one thing she really looked forward to was seeing Harry again. When she first met him of course she had had a boyfriend, she had been going out with Oliver Wood, but she thought Harry cute in a little kid kin of way. But ever since last year Harry had changed so much since his fourth year. He was stronger and smarter and definitely maturing into a handsome and hot young man. She looked into the mirror as she combed her hair. "I do believe your falling for the English man." She said to her self .she laughed and got dressed. She wore low-rise boot cut jeans and a shirt that said 'I have been VERY naughty.' she walked down the stairs and into the kitchen to find her father and grandfather eating and reading the paper. "Morning Christine dear." He dad said. "Morning dad." Her grandfather looked at her and smiled. "Morning." He said hugging her. "Morning papa." Marcus put the paper down. "Your clothes...?" she smiled. "Already there...Fred got them yesterday....remember." He nodded. "Have fun." She then walked out side and apparated to the Burrow.
In a flash she was standing in front of the house. A smile appeared on her face. It wasn't as glamorous as her mansion but she loved it because it was small and you could always find everyone. Ginny Weasley walked out the door with her hair up. She saw Christine and smiled. "Hey." She said running over to her and hugging her. Christine hugged her back. "Have you been growing?" Ginny laughed. "Mum says I take after Fred and George with height." Christine laughed. "I hope that's the only thing a family only needs two trouble makers."
"What's wrong with that?" A voice asked. Christine recognized it perfectly. She turned around and hugged Fred. "It's good to see you again." He smiled and hugged her back. "Good to see you too." George cleared his throat. "Don't hog her Fred." Fred let go and George swept Christine into a bone crushing embrace. She laughed as he swung her around. "George your hurting me and making me dizzy." He laughed and put her down, blushing slightly. "Sorry." Fred laughed. Mrs. Weasley walked out with Ron behind her. "Oh Christine dear it's so good to see you again." She said hugging her. "Now mum's being a Christine hog." Everyone laughed. "Oh hush up George.....Well come in dear....You'll be staying in Fred and George's room, your fine with that right?" Christine nodded. "Yes." Fred and George linked arms with her and they walked into their house. They lead her up the stairs too their room. She wasn't surprised to see it that clean. She sat down on George's bed since it was closest to the desk that the twins had now sat down at. "How's the business?" Fred looked at her. "Great. We think we have a flat above our shop. Tomorrow will you come and look at it with us?" He asked. She nodded. "I wouldn't miss it for the world....can I still move in with ya'll?" George looked at her like she was crazy. "Of course you can move in with us." She laughed. "When are Harry and Hermione coming?" George stood up and sat on the bed next to her. She looked at him. "They are coming tomorrow." She nodded and lay back on his bed. "So whose bed do I get?" Fred and George looked at each other. "Well...Um..." George said he was flustered, his old girlfriend was lying on his bed; he knew he still had feelings for her. She looked at him. "Fred can sleep on the floor and you can sleep in his bed." She nodded. "But I like your bed George." Fred laughed. "She likes your bed George." George looked at him, Fred knew what was going on in his head right know. "I'll sleep on the floor then." Christine looked at him. "You don't have to." He shook his head and waved his wand. A bed appeared in-between the other two. "I'll sleep on that one." There was a knock on the door.
"Fred, George, Christine...Dinner's ready dears." Christine stood up. Fred did too and walked out the door. Christine looked over her shoulder at George. He was still on the bed. "Need help getting up?" He laughed and nodded. She walked back over to him and pulled him up. They walked out bumping shoulders and laughing. Mr. Weasley smiled at them as they walked down and into the kitchen. "Hello Christine dear." She smiled. "Hello Mr. Weasley." She then took a seat between Fred and George. Ron across from her. "Ron how have you been?" He looked at her. "Fine. Have you gotten any letters from Harry?" He asked sounding concerned. She shook her head. "No I haven't" Ron looked around. "I just got the one that said he will be here tomorrow....That was yesterday." Christine smiled. "I'm sure he is fine then," Ron nodded. "But what about the whole time he hadn't written?" Christine shrugged. "I don't know there must have been a reason." Ron nodded although he didn't seem too convinced. Mrs. Weasley placed the food on the table. Christine smiled. Everything about this place felt more like home then the mansion she lived in. They ate and then Fred, George and Ron took her to the clearing where they played Quidditch. She sat down and watched them. "I'm getting better." Ron said a smile on his lips. Christine laughed. "Let me see." Ron nodded and Fred and George moved into take a shot. He blocked it with ease. She smiled. "Good but your no Oliver." Ron laughed. Fred shook his head. "Of course you would be thinking about Oliver. Has he talked to you?" George was messing with Ron. Christine nodded. "Yeah we met over the summer. Sort of sad I broke up with him, but he would have wanted kids way before I did and I didn't want to tie him down to wait" Fred nodded and went over to see what George was doing to Ron. Christine stood up and followed him. She shook her head. George had dressed Ron up as a girl. Ron had his arms crossed. Christine laughed as she hit George's arm playfully. Fred took a picture. "I'm showing everyone." He said happily as he ran into the house. Ron looked really scared and embarrassed at the same time. George laughed and made the clothes disappear. "You're so dead." Ron said standing up and getting ready to jump on his brother. George looked at him and apparated into the house before Ron could get him. Christine laughed. "I hope Hermione doesn't see that." He said." Knowing your brothers, she is going to see it tomorrow." Ron hung his head as he and Christine walked inside the house. Ron was met with a chorus of laughter even from his mother, who when she saw Ron's face tried to stop laughing. "Fred....George that wasn't very..." She didn't finish because she had started laughing again. Fred and George were beaming. Ron shook his head and walked up to his room. Fred and George grabbed Christine and took her to their room. She sat down on George's bed as George sat down in the bed he had conjured up in the middle and Fred sat on his. "So you really want to move in with Fred and me." She nodded. "Yeah you guys are my best friend. I also don't want to live with me dad and granddad any more. It is boring" She said laying her head onto the pillow. Fred and George looked at each other and smirked. They went to George's bed and started tickling Christine. She laughed. "Stop." She said between laughter and gasp for breath. "Say Fred and George are the Sexiest men alive." Fred said George laughed. "Fred and George are the Sexiest men alive." she said. They stopped tickling her. "You really think so?" She laughed and lay down. "I'm tired thanks to you too." Fred lay down in front of her, his face facing her and George lay down behind her wrapping his arms around her. "Then we go to sleep." Fred said in a baby voice. Christine giggled. The twins didn't even act like adults like they were supposed to. She closed her eyes and the three ended up falling asleep.
In the morning Christine woke up with George behind her and Fred's head on her waist. She giggled and slipped out of George's arms. She then laid Fred's head onto George's waist. She snapped her fingers and her clothes changed. She then walked down stairs. She heard Mr. Weasley, Mrs. Weasley and someone talking. She walked into the kitchen and saw Harry talking with them. She smiled. Harry looked at her; Christine felt her heart try to escape her chest when those bright green eyes looked into her blue ones. Harry walked over to her and hugged her. "How have you been?" He said breaking the hug and looking at her. "Great what about you?" Harry laughed. "Bored as Hell." He said softly so Mrs. Weasley didn't hear him cuss. "Harry, Christine you can go for a walk if you want. My lazy children won't be up for a while." They giggled and walked out of the house. Harry looked around. He knew this place was so peaceful. He looked at Christine as the wind blew her hair behind her. He smiled, she was beautiful. Christine looked at him. Harry blushed slightly. Christine giggled and then walked to the clearing. Harry followed her, his mind racing, he knew he had feelings for Cho but what were these feelings for Christine had he not felt them before because she had been with George and now that they were broken up he was figuring out he liked her. She sat down at the base of a tree and Harry sat across from her. "So looking forward to this year?" She asked him. He looked at her. "Yeah. I can play quid ditch again." Christine laughed. "That all you care about." Harry laughed too and shook his head. "No...The only real fun thing to do there." Christine nodded her head. "So what about you?" He asked. She looked up at him from playing with grass. "Not really it's my last year so..." The sound of footsteps caused Harry and Christine to look around. They stood up and both took out their wands. Harry stood in front of Christine, sort of protectively. Hermione and Ron walked out of the trees. "It's alright guys we aren't going to hurt you." Hermione said laughing. Christine and Harry laughed. They put their wands away and sat down and Hermione and Ron did. Hermione and Christine started talking. "So how do you like being a Prefect?" Hermione smiled. "It's nice but Ron is annoying." Christine laughed. "Christine who is the head girl and head boy?" Christine looked at the ground playing with a blade of grass. "I'm the head girl. I don't know who the head boy is." Hermione smiled. "That's so great." Ron and Harry finally joined them. They had been talking in a corner. "Christine is head girl Ron." Hermione said still beaming. Harry and Ron smiled. "That is great." Christine laughed. "Yeah sure you say that now but at school I'm going to be so stressed out. So if I snap at you then I'm sorry." Harry laughed and leaned up against the tree beside Christine. "Hey I've snapped at them." He said laughing harder. Ron made a face and so did Hermione. "Not funny." They said. Fred and George then walked into the clearing. "Hey Christine ready to go see the flat?" She looked up at Fred and stood up. "Yeah." Harry and the others looked at her. "Flat?" Hermione asked eyeing the twins. "Yeah Fred and I are moving out and Christine is going to move in with us after she is done with school." Christine nodded. "Or I'll move in when ya'll do." Fred looked at her. "Really?" She nodded and Fred hugged her followed by George. "Okay well we have to go." They then apparated to Diagon alley. Christine looked around and Fred and George grabbed her hand and lead her to their new joke shop. She smiled. "It's great guys." George laughed. "Wait till you get inside." He unlocked the door. He walked in and Christine followed him. Fred followed her.
Christine looked around and gasped. It was amazing. The floor was multicolor tiles that flashed. The ceiling was bright and then changed colors. George smiled at her surprise and then led her to the back. Fred stayed down stair. George led Christine up some stair. He then unlocked a door that lead to the flat. "Close your eyes." She tilted her head at him but did what he said. He opened the door and took her hand gently in his. He led her in and the scent of lavender floated to her and tickled her nose. George looked around. He smiled. "Alright you can open your eyes." she did and gasped at what she saw. The place was already furnished with furniture. It also had roses and candles. But they weren't any kind of roses. These roses George had bewitched to be in Christine's favorite color, blue. She looked around and then looked at George. She knew he had done this. She hugged him and then kissed him. George kissed her back wrapping his arms around her waist. Her arms snaked around his neck and her hands went into his hair. When they broke the kiss George smiled at her. "I want to go out with you again....I still love you." She looked at him and smiled. "I....want to go out with you too." she didn't say she loved him because she didn't want to hurt him if she really didn't because there were the feelings for Harry that she was having. George didn't notice that she didn't say 'I love you.' He smiled and swung her around again, kissing her. She kissed him back. "I want to show you your room." She nodded and her lead her to the room. The room was beautiful and George had made sure everything Christine liked was there. She walked to the bed and touched the silk and satin sheets. She smiled at George as he sat down next to her .He put an arm around her waist and stroked her hair. She leaned her head on his chest. Fred walked in. "Yeah. You're going out." Christine and George smiled at him. "Well I'm going to get something for us to eat from moms when I go get Christine's clothes which would be now." He then apparated leaving George and Christine alone again. Christine then stood up George looked at her. "I'm going to go get my school books." He nodded and kissed her cheek. Walking her to the door. She walked down the stairs and out the joke shops door. She then walked to the bookstore. While she was in there she saw Maddie. She smiled and walked over to her making sure Draco wasn't around. "Hey Maddie." She said. Maddie turned around and the scowl she usually wore changed into a smile. "Christine hey...finally move away from your dad." Christine nodded.
"Awesome," Maddie laughed. "PAR-TAY at... uhh... where do you live, anyway?" Christine smiled and said, "With Fred and George Weasley! Actually... George and I are back together." Maddie saw Christine blush and laughed.
They went on chit chatting about their summers. "Dull as usual, eh?" Maddie laughed. They went on and got their books and such. They had just paid when who else to walk in the bookshop but Draco. He saw Maddie and flashed her a sexy smirk. Maddie blushed a bright pink. She had liked him at the end of their 5th year, but she had never realized she still had feelings for him.
Draco walked up to Maddie and gave her a hug and a quick peck on the cheek. "Hello Mads!" Christine realized she shouldn't seem to be friends with a Slytherin. After all, she was a Gryffindor and Slytherins rarely associated with people from other houses. So Christine walked out of the store and waited for Maddie to come out.
Once she finally came out of the store, Christine made sure Draco couldn't see them. "So??" Christine wasn't the patient type. "Well, nothing really happened. Just said our hellos and other nothings." Maddie started to blush thinking about him. "Uh-huh," said Christine. "Suuuuure." George walked over and smiled at Maddie. "Hey." He said wrapping his arms around Christine's waist. Maddie smiled. "Hey. So how did you ask her out again?" George blushed and said, "Well, you can ask Christine about it. Well, I have to go back to the joke shop. See you later, sweetie." He then kissed Christine's cheek before walking off. Maddie looked at Christine and tried hard not to start laughing. Christine just shook her head. "Come on let's go get some ice cream." They headed over to the ice cream shop. On their way there, Christine was looking around as she was barely listening to Maddie talk about Draco. She turned her head and looked down a small alley, she then gasped, Draco had Pansy up against the wall, kissing her. Maddie looked at Christine and then followed gaze to see Draco and Pansy. She gasped; she then looked down at the ground and walked off slowly, feeling her heart break. Christine looked at her and then caught up. "Well what do you expect from Malfoy he is scum." Maddie looked at her then looked away, her eyes were tearing up. Christine sighed. "I honestly don't know why I still have feelings for him." Christine laughed slightly. "Don't let him get you down, most boys are assholes." Maddie laughed feeling a little better.
They then arrived at the ice cream parlor. Maddie grabbed a table in the back and in the corner. Christine walked over with two ice cream cones. She handed one to Maddie as she sat down. "We can get back at him you know, George would LOVE to help." Maddie laughed at the thought. "I don't want to be cruel; He is one of my best friends." Christine laughed as she finished off her ice cream. "You are a Slytherin....you are..." She stopped and stood up. Draco and Pansy walked in. Christine walked away to another table, with some of her other friends. Draco and Pansy walked over to the table Maddie was at and sat down. Pansy in Draco's lap. Maddie looked at them and then looked down. Draco looked at her and was about to say something when Pansy crushed her lips into his. She then looked at him. "I have to go." He nodded and she got out of his lap. As she left she gave Maddie a death glare. Christine looked at them over Will's shoulder. She then looked at Will hearing Grace Nag at Jack.
Draco stood up and moved his chair next to Maddie. He placed an arm on it to get her to look at him. "What's wrong?" He asked, he placed his hand under her chin and picked up her head gently, so that she was looking into his dazzling blue eyes. Christine looked over at them again and was surprised to see Draco so loving. Maddie just shrugged. "Nothing, just don't want to go back to that damn school." Draco could tell she was lying. He took her hand in his. "Your eyes are telling me you're lying." She looked at him and then looked down again. Her eyes started to tear. Draco looked around a little nervous, he didn't know what to do when a girl started to cry. He placed a hand gently on her back and patted. "It's alright." He said softly, next to her ear. Maddie felt a shiver run down her spine, as his breath touched her skin. "Just tell me whets wrong?" He said a pleading look in his eyes. "I can't because, it's girl stuff." Draco sighed. "Alright, but when you want to tell me you can.....I have to go." He kissed her cheek before leaving. Draco then stopped, he turned around. "I know what will make you feel better." She looked at him and then at Christine. Christine smiled and nodded her head. "Go." she mouthed. Maddie smiled and stood up. Draco took her hand gently in his and led her out. "Where are we going?" She asked. Draco turned to look at her, a smirk playing on his lips. "You'll see." he then made a blindfold appear and put it over her eyes. "Not fair." She whined. He laughed and continued walking. "Alls not fair in love and war." She shook her head. "This isn't a war or." She stopped because she ran into Draco. "Weasley." Draco snarled. George and Fred looked at him. Christine was by George, his arm around her. "Hello Malfoy." George spat. Maddie became uneasy. Fred walked to where he was next to his brother and Christine was behind them. "Did we not hit you hard enough last time?" Fred growled. Malfoy laughed coldly and a shiver ran up Christine's spine. 'He is so creepy.' She thought. She then looked at Maddie behind Malfoy, blindfolded. 'That guy is weird, what is he going to do to Maddie?' George then grabbed Christine's hand and he and Fred walked off. Draco glared at them and then started walking again. "What was that about?" Maddie asked. Draco laughed. "Just the stupid Weasley twins, god I hate them." He then stopped and walked her through some doors. He led her up some stairs and through yet another door. He then stopped and she heard the springs of a bed sag. "You can take off your blindfold." She did and looked at Draco weird. He smirked and patted the bed, telling her to sit down. She did and then felt his hands on her shoulders. He started to massage her in an attempt to calm her down. After what seemed like forever, he stopped. "Thank you," Maddie said. "Not a problem. Hey, now where's my back rub?" Draco laughed. She got up and sat down on the bed behind him. She started to massage his shoulders, when all of a sudden Pansy burst into the room.
"What is this?!" she screamed. "It's nothing!" replied Draco. "I was just helping Maddie feel better!" Apparently that wasn't good enough for Pansy. She ran over to them and slapped each one across the face. "Pansy! I can exp-" Draco was cut short as she slapped him yet again. Maddie just wanted to seem invisible as their argument got louder and worse. "I leave you alone for one hour and here you are cheating on me?!" Pansy was furious! "For the love of god! I wasn't cheating on you!" Draco yelled. Pansy turned a deep red, as she was full of rage. "Don't give me that! We're OVER!" Then she stormed out of the room slamming the door behind her.
"I'm sorry you had to see that," Draco sighed. Maddie was still slightly in shock. Then she quickly snapped out of it. She walked over to where he was sitting on the bed to comfort him. "I'm so sorry Draco. You're a wonderful person. She was just mad because we gave her the wrong impression. I mean, honestly, how could she not love you? You're practically perfect in every way." Maddie couldn't believe she actually said this to him. "You really think that?" Draco replied. Maddie sighed and told him yes. She had explained that she had liked him since the end of their 5th year, but she didn't want it to create tension between them. "That's why I was crying earlier," Maddie said looking at the floor. "I couldn't stand seeing you with her. It just hurt me so bad." Draco felt so bad. "Mads, if only you had told me. I'm so sorry I had to make you go through that." Draco realized a tear fall to the floor. "Maddie... Look at me." She lifted up her head and looked into his eyes. Her heart was racing so fast; it was as if it didn't have a beat. He leaned over and lightly kissed her on the lips. When the kiss ended, they stared into each other's eyes for what seemed an eternity. Then he kissed her again, only it was more passionate this time. As their lips parted, Draco asked her to go out with him, and of course she responded with a very excited yes. Then Maddie had to leave and tell Christine everything! So she left, but not before she gave Draco another kiss. "Where are you going off to? Running away from me so fast?" Draco played. "I'm going... somewhere..." Maddie laughed and walked out the door closing it behind her. She leaned back against the door and let out a sigh. 'Finally. He's mine! EEK! I'm so excited!' She thought. She ran down the steps and out the other door. She rushed off to find
Christine and saw her walking with Fred and George. Christine noticed her walking towards her and told them she'd see them later. "So?? Where did he take you?!" Christine exclaimed. Maddie quickly told her the whole story with a huge grin on her face. "AHH!! I'm so happy for you!" Christine shouted. "Wait, where have YOU been, missy?" Maddie laughed. Christine blushed. "None of your business." Maddie pursed her lips; she then looked at Christine's neck. "Is that a hickey?" Christine put a hand to her neck, she looked down. "Maybe." She said shyly. Maddie shook her head. "I don't even want to know what you and George did." Maddie then laughed at the look on Christine's face. "Good..." Christine said, "Well I have to go...See ya later Maddie." Christine then walked off. Maddie nodded and walked back to Draco's room
Christine walked to the joke shop and then walked in. She saw it was VERY busy. She walked behind the counter and then behind George. She wrapped her arms around his waist. He smiled and looked at her. "Hey babe." She rested her head on his back as he helped the costumers. "You gave me a hickey." She breathed. He looked back at her. "Really? I gave you a love bite?" He whispered. She nodded and he felt it against his back. He smiled and then finished helping the last person.
When everyone was gone, George picked up Christine and carried her to the flat bridal style. She looked over at Fred who was laughing. She then looked back at George; he looked at her and smirked. She blushed and closed her eyes. He opened the door with his foot and then closed it. He laid her on the couch, he kissed her lips. Christine kissed his lips wrapped her arms around him. George hovered over her. He ran his hand up her shirt; he then went to take it off. She took his hand. "I'm not quite ready." He nodded and sat down on the couch putting her head in his lap. He combed his fingers through her hair; she smiled a him and took his hand in hers. She kissed his palm. Fred walked in and looked at them. "Well I'm going to bed." Christine looked at him. "Night Freddy." She said. He smiled. "Night Christine, Night George...You two don't stay up to late." George grabbed a pillow and through it at Fred. It hit the back of his head, when he turned around George pointed at Christine who was playing with George's shirt. Fred just shook his head and walked to his room. George stroked her face; he then ran his index finger over her lips. "I can't believe I went half the summer not being with you." She giggled. "Yeah well I was bored to. I missed the pranks." George laughed and Christine smiled. She loved the way he laughed; she was beginning to forget her feelings for Harry. She yawned and stood up. "I'm going to bed." He looked at her and smirked. "Want some company?" She laughed and kissed his cheek. "No I'm a big girl." She then walked off down the hall. George watched her and smiled, "God I'm lucky." He breathed as he stood up and walked to his room. He passed Christine's room and resisted the urge to go in and sleep next to her. He walked into his room and took of his shirt. He then laid on the bed and fell asleep.
