Hugo POV…

I looked around the room to make sure my parents were not in the sitting room before I floo called Lily. All was quiet in the house, more so since Rose moved out with Scorpius in the beginning of the summer. I knew that Rose would never walk in the middle of the day because she was at her healer training. It was my parents who would walk at any time of the day. I grab the floo powder off the mantel.

"Potter House," I yelled in the fire after I threw it in. My head went spinning in the fire. It landed in the Potter's sitting room. I looked around and didn't see Lily anywhere; there was a book on the side table next to the couch on the far side of the room. Across from the couch were two chairs with an end table between them. I was about to call for Lily when she walked in and closed the door behind her. Aunt Ginny must be home because the lock clicked.

"Lily," I hissed to get her attention. Lily's brown eyes spun to look at me.

"Hugo," Lily looked back to the door to make sure her mother was not walking by. "What are you doing?" Lily got down on the floor.

"You told me to call you today about the party that Andrew Zinc is throwing tonight." I rolled my eyes telling her that this was her idea. She was the one who wrote me to call her. Now she's yelling at me for calling her.

Lily looked back to the door before speaking. "Zinc's parents are out of town tonight and he is having a party for all the seventh years. The party starts at eight. I'll come over later and we'll leave from there."

"Great see you later." I pulled my head out of the fire and looked at my own sitting room. I leaned back and took a look around the room. Dad's chair was in the corner with the wireless on the table next to it. My mother's favorite rocking chair was in the corner with a tall lamp. Under the window was our couch, the coffee table in front of it. I got up and went to get something to eat before I had to finish packing so I can be ready for tomorrow.

Dinner was a quiet affair; it was only Mum and me. Dad had to work late. Mum kept on asking if I had everything pack for tomorrow and if I finished my homework for the summer. I don't know how many times I told her that I had everything ready. I think she was sad because this was my last year at Hogwarts and it made her feel old. I tired not to look at the clock to see the time for me to leave. I offer to clean up and Mum liked this and went into her office to do some work.

I was changing my shirt when I heard the floo. I ran downstairs, not before I heard not to run in the house from Mum. Lily smiled when she saw me roll my eyes. I went to my mum office. "Mum, I'm leaving with Lily." I said from the doorway.

Mum waved it off. "Be back by eleven." I nodded but she didn't see. Lily and I left soon after that.

Oops

You could hear the music down the street when we apparated there. Lily and I traded smiles as we walked up the street to Andrew Zinc's house. We saw some of our classmates walking the same way, we said our hello's and walked with them. There was light coming from every room in the house; people were coming in and out of the front door. Andrew was standing in the hallway greeting his guests. He greeted everyone like they were friends since first year.

"Hugo, Lily, I'm glad you could make it. The drinks are that way," Andrew pointed to the left, it looked liked the kitchen was that way. "The dance floor is to your right." He pointed the other way. The music was coming from there.

"Thanks for inviting us." Lily said before she saw one of her friends and made her way over there. I nodded my agreement and went to find the drinks. I greeted people I knew, I saw one of my friends snogging his girlfriend in the corner.

There were drinks aplenty, from muggle drinks to the famous firewhiskey. "You should try the stuff in the orange bowl. I don't know what it is but it is good." I found Amanda Longbottom standing in front of the drinks. Her blond hair was in a ponytail and her brown eyes were glazed over.

"Thanks." Amanda has been a friend since we were babies. If we were always in the same room, we would greet each other and make small talk. We were closer before Hogwarts, we started to go our separate ways when I got sorted in Gryffindor and she went to Hufflepuff. I haven't seen her since I went to get my things for school.

We made small talk, I would ask about her family and she would ask about mine. We had drink after drink; I lost count after the fifth one. We were making jokes about the people here. I don't know what made me do it, maybe it the alcohol or her laugh but I had to ask.

"Would you like to dance?" Amanda's brown eyes looked up at me like did I just ask her that.

"Sure." I grab her hand without the drink in her hand. I made my way through the people who were in my way. The dance floor had very little light; I could not see were people were. I think I saw Lily in some corner with one of her friends.

There was a slow song on and I pull Amanda in my arms. She put her hands around my neck; I put mine on her waist. Her head was on my chest, if she was sober, she could have heard my heartbeat. I pulled her as close as I could get her. I felt the need to kiss her; I was just about to lift her head when the song changed. We let go of each other and took a drink before we were dancing to close to each other.

I leaned my tall fame down to her ear. "Do you want to get out of here?" I asked her. I felt her nod. I pulled her off the dance floor and out the door. The hot August air or was it September, I haven't look at a clock since I left home. I reach for my wand in my back pocket and took us home.

I took us into the backyard, all the lights are off, Dad must have come home at some point and they went to bed. I grab Amanda's hand and led her in our kitchen. I made my way around the room in the dark. I found the stairs somehow and took us upstairs, stopping a couple times before I got dizzy. I pulled her in my room and closed the door before I pulled her into my arms and kissed her hungrily. Soon most of our clothing was off before I pulled her on the bed and threw the rest of our clothes off. I shagged Amanda Longbottom that night.

oops

"Hugo! You need to get up." The pounding on the door woke me up or was it the pounding in my head. I tried to get up but my head hurt too much. I felt a warm body next to me; I open my eyes to see blond hair on the pillow next to me. I finally able to sit up and glance at the clock on my desk, to see it's was nine in the morning. I found my boxers before I woke up the blond next to me. I had to get her out of here before Mum or Dad found out.

"Hey," I shook her shoulder. She turned around to look at. I saw her brown eyes and knew, "Amanda, we have to get you home."

"Hugo, what are you doing in my room?" Amanda said before rolling over and went back to sleep.

"Amanda, you are not home. You are at my house and you spent the night here." I didn't tell her what we did last night because it could scare her.

Amanda sat up and the blanket started slip before she grabbed it and pulled it up. She looked around my room to find my dresser on the wall opposite my bed. My desk in the corner, her eyes finally landed on me. Her eyed widen and her cheeks turned pink. "Oh, what time is it?"

"A little after nine," I said. She looked at me to leave; I sighed and left the room. I heard my parents' voices coming from the kitchen; I would have to get Amanda out by the front door. I heard the door open behind me. Amanda stood in her clothes from last night. She nodded and I took her down the stairs to the front of the house. I let her out and went to get ready to leave for the train. We are in the car by nine-thirty and making our way to King's Cross.

Amanda's POV…

My house became clearer as I made my way towards it. I looked in one of the window to find Mum running around the house looking for something or someone. I make my way around the house to the backdoor and open it quietly. I slipped in and saw my dad sitting at the table drinking a cup of tea.

"Hello, Amanda." Dad said without looking up from his paper. "Your mother has been looking for you all over. Where have you been?"

"I was at a friend's house." I said, trying to get out of the kitchen but I ran into my mum.

"Amanda, are you ready to go?" Mum acted like I was just getting something to eat. I nodded and ran out of the room. I went upstairs to grab my things but my two younger brothers were standing in front of my door.

"Mandy, we missed you at breakfast." Nick said. "Where have you been?"

I push them out of the way. "None of your business," I close my door in their faces. I change and grab my trunk so we can leave for the station. On the way Nick and Simon kept on asking me about last night.

All I remember from last night was getting to the party with my friend Beth. I went for the drinks and she went to find her boyfriend. That left me by the drinks looking as people came in. Hugo Weasley found me with his red hair falling in his blue eyes and we started drinking together. I remember him asking me to dance; I could hear his heart beat when I put my head on his shoulder, Hugo's tall frame leaning down to my ear asking if I wanted to leave the party and go to his place. I went with him; I knew what was going to happen. I woke up in his bed with his chest right in front of me; I saw what quidditch did for him and let's say that I was very luck.

"Amanda, we're here." Mum said I saw that everyone was out of the car beside me. I got out, it made my head hurt. I close my eyes before Dad hands me my trunk. We walk through the station to platform 9 ¾.

I left my family when we got to the train; I went to find an empty compartment to find some quiet place to sleep after the perfect meeting. I went back to say goodbye, I saw Hugo standing with his parents with his aunt and uncle and Lily. He turned towards me, our eyes caught each other. I felt color rise in my cheeks. I turned away after ten seconds. I kissed my parents goodbye and went to the perfect compartment.

You could tell who the new perfects were, they all looked nervous by being there. I took a seat next to the window to rest my head on. I closed my eyes to get away from the light. I felt someone sit next to me, I didn't look up to see who it was. The Head Boy and Girl came in and told us what we had to do; I knew all this from the last two years. We finally got to leave and I went back to my empty compartment.

I closed my eyes and was going to go to sleep when the compartment door opened. I opened one eye to find the boy that I didn't want to see for the rest of my life.

"Can I sit here with you?" Hugo Weasley asked. I motion with my hand that he can take the seat across from me. "Thank you. Everyone in my compartment is being loud and I can't get rid of this headache."

I didn't want to ask, but I did. "Don't you usually sit with Lily and your friends?"

"Yeah, some how they got the hangover potion and decide to play exploding snaps." Hugo said he didn't open his eyes.

"We don't have to talk about last night?" I asked. Hugo opened his eyes.

"Not if you don't want to." Hugo said. I nodded and Hugo closed his eyes. I nodded and followed him. We spent the rest of the train ride sleeping.
