Summary:
Tonks was
walking down the corridor on her way to class when she heard the head
boy yelling at students.
"You will not prank other students
for your own enjoyment!" he yelled.
Tonks, being curious
turned the corner to see Bill Weasley yelling at his little brothers
Fred, and George.
"Fine," one of them replied looking
at his brother with pure disappointment.
"Yeah, we will do it
for others enjoyment," The other brother said before both took
off down the hall way.
She walked up to Bill hearing him mutter
something about bloody idiots which caused her to laugh.
He turned
to see her and gave her a small smile.
"Hey Tonks," He
said walking towards her a bit.
"Hey Weasley," She said
in a joking tone.
He laughed as rolled his eyes as he asked her,
"Want me to walk you to class?"
"Actually, I think
I am going to go help put up some of those Christmas decorations,
everyone can use an extra wand during the season," She
replied.
"Well them lets go," he said nodding towards
the great hall, "it's my free period."
They talked about
the quidditch game between Gryffindor and Slytherin coming up until
they reached the great hall and people started to laugh. Bill looked
around wondering what they were laughing about when one of the
seventh years pointed up and Bill saw the mistletoe.
Tonks looked
up and chuckled as she turned to Bill and said, "Lay one on me
baby."
Bill chuckled and put one arm around her waist and the
other in her hair pulling her closer. She looked at him oddly before
he leaned in close and kissed her. She didn't know what to think, she
felt like her world was lit on fire. She could see her hair change
colour and felt Bill smile as he pulled away. He took a moment to
look at her as her hair changed from red, orange, yellow, blue and
purple after finally settling one pink.
He let out a laugh and let
go of her, "I think I am going to go check on the boys and make
sure they aren't getting into too much trouble," he said as he
turned to leave.
She looked down at her feet but nodded none the
less. Bill turned to look at her and saw her upset which of course he
didn't like.
"Tonks don't be like that," He said in a
pleading tone.
"Like what," She snapped.
"That,"
He said grabbing her by the elbow and pulled her away from the
nosy-bodies watching and listening.
"It's not that I didn't
enjoy that kiss, and your company as a friend,"
He said rubbing a hand over his face.
"I get it," she
said as she tried to turn around. When she did of course, being
Tonks, she tripped over her own feet. Bill reached for her as she
fell and caught her before she could fully land on her bottom.
"You
really don't," Bill said hiding a chuckle.
"Then explain
it," Tonks said as her hair turned a shade of bright red as she
yanked her arm from his grip.
"Charlie," Bill simply
said.
"What about him?" She asked.
"He likes
you, and he said it first so I have to go by the code," Bill
stated as if it were the most obvious thing in the world. Tonks
thought perhaps it was, to everyone but her.
"What code?"
"The brothers code, he likes you so I cannot flirt, or "make
passes," at you," He said with a smile.
"So he really likes me?" tonks asked.
"Yes," Bill said in the most serious tone he could muster.
"Well in that case I'm
going to find myself then better looking Weasley..."
Tonks
said as she turned ran from the now chuckling Bill.
"Merry Christmas Charlie," Bill said shaking his head.
"Oh
it will be," Bill heard a familiar voice say. He turned to see
his little
brother Charlie leaning against the wall with a smile
on his face.
They both started laughing as they started off towards the quidditch pitch.
