"That was awful! What are you, frogs on brooms? I expected more from you all. Did none of you practice over the summer? Doesn't matter, go get changed. " Madame Houch scolded the Gryffindor Quidditch team at the first practice of the year. It was after classes and the day was unusually hot. It was Fred and George's seventh year at Hogwarts.

After being scolded Harry, Fred and George walked towards the showers.

"What shit, we flew everyday!" George whispered as they walked away.

"It's just the first practice in awhile I guess," Fred tiredly replied. He just really wanted to get out of his robes and in a cool shower.

"I just want to get back to playing," harry added. He wanted to get his mind off of the events of the summer.

George looked up in the stands to see herminone sucked into a book And cho Chang eyeing their little group as they walked by.

"Ay Harry, cho's looking at you," George whispered to Harry. No one really knew the situation between Harry and cho but it sure seemed complicated.

"Oh, uh ok," he paused,"I'll see you guys before dinner. " he gave his broom to Fred and he ran off without another word.

"Weird," Fred and George said at the same time and continued walking too tired to talk anymore.

When they got to the showers they were all taken so they had to wait. While they waited they stripped down to their underwear. They sat down on the stone benches, the cool tile felt ice cold against their hot skin.

George laid on his back and moaned,"oh my god that feels fantastic."

Fred laid down on the other bench and felt instantly better. They both relaxed and listened to the sound of the showers running.

"'Mm George?"

"Yeah?" George replied with closed eyes.

"We need to go to hogsmead soon," He stretched.

"What? We went last week!"

"But we had a bunch of failed experiments this week so we need more."

"Fine, we can go tonight but this will have to be it for a while, that Umbridge lady has everything guarded." He sounded almost timid at this suggestion.

"What, are you getting scared that we'll get caught? Georgie, if we get caught we'll get detentions like every time we get caught."

George sighed,"alright whatever..."

Fred realized something wasn't quite right with his twin. He sat up, "George, what's wrong?"

He didn't answer and exhaled hardly.

Fred became very worried, it wasn't like him to keep things from him.

"George-" Fred started but Dean walked out off the shower.

"There's a shower if you want it," he offered then went to get changed.

Fred pulse quickened and he moved to sit next to George. "What happened?"

"I can't tell you on school grounds" he answered quietly.

"What? You're being ridiculous, can you just tell me?"

George sat up so he was face to face with Fred, "No." They exchanged a look that confirmed it would be discussed later. Fred held in his further questions and nodded. He put his hand on George's back as a comforting gesture but George just stood up and got in the shower with out a word. This actually really pissed Fred off that he was was giving him the silent treatment but he was hoping it was for a good reason.

If it wasn't, he was going to beat him up.
