A/N: This is a joined writing story. My friend and I write the twin's P.O.V's. We did the sorting scene just for the fun of it…
Emmalyn's P.O.V.
I gazed around the Great Hall as several students were sorted into their houses. The strict Professor's voice snapped me out of my daze.
"Lawley, Emmalyn."
Collective gasps were head around the hall. The Lawleys had been thought to have died out sometime after our parents' disappearance. I sighed and walked up to the stool, where I sat down and placed the ratty old hat on my head.
'Oh a challenge.' A voice flitted through my head. I felt myself automatically put up barriers as I thought, 'Are you in my head?'
'How else would I be able to sort you?"
I sighed and lowered some of my barriers, never all.
'Hmm a love of knowledge and courage. Oh yes, you are brave, but you're cunning as well. Oh dear, where to place you? Maybe Ravenclaw?'
I snorted slightly, 'Great, stick me with the nerds.'
I was slightly surprised at its chuckle.
'Ok, that narrows it down to two houses. House of the brave or house of the cunning..'
The hat thought, mumbling to itself every now and then, for several minutes. I gazed around the room and my gaze landed on Sydney, my twin, who was still in the line. Behind her where two cute red-headed twins with mischievous grins that could rival mine and Sydney's.
'I think I got it!' exclaimed the hat in my head.
'You can't be in Gryffindor because you'd chew them up and spit them back out. And where would we be without our Gryffindors? It must be..'
"SLYTHERIN!" I smirked as I slid off the stool and handed the hat to my twin as the professor called, "Lawley, Sydney."
Sydney's P.O.V
I walked up to the stool and placed the hat on my head. I grumbled as the hat slid down to my ears ruining my spiky, blood red hair. I heard eh voice of the hat start speaking.
'My, another set of twins. You're smart and mature, I would say. There is a deep rooted sincerity and kindness under this dark image. Where should I put you?'
'I have a twin. Where the hell do you think I'm going to go? Shout Slytherin and leave my head.'
'Well, we do have a rather rude one, you're definitely a …'
"SLYTHERIN!"
I took the hat off my head and went to sit beside my twin before turning to watch the two red heads that were behind us. The sorting ended and the headmaster started talking. When he sat back down at the head table, food appeared on the four house tables. I turned to Emma and smirked.
"What do you think? Is this better than home?"
Emma glared at me and I laughed. I put some food on my plate and began eating. From a short way down the table, I noticed a dark haired boy who was the same year as Emma and myself. I looked down at my food again and then head someone speak.
"I heard that the Lawley's were non-existent. So, where'd you two come from?"
I looked up and saw the guy smirking at Emma and I. Emma was quieter than me, but I knew that if she got the chance, she would bitch the boy out. So, deciding we didn't need that, I smirked at the boy.
"Really now? I thought all the Flints were pompous gits that were great cowards?" I said mockingly sweet.
"Why, you stupid bitch! I wasn't insulting you!" Flint said in anger.
"Oh, really? Sorry my interpretation stated such," I said with a whole new attitude.
"What's with the hair?" the chick next to Flint asked snottily.
"Why?" Color too intense?" I asked eyeing a strand of my hair.
"It makes you look like those filthy red-headed Weasleys."
I glared at the girl then smirked. I took out my wand and pointed to my hair. My hair changed color and style in less than a minute. I heard a collective gasp from the rest of the hall and heard Emma laugh.
"Is this better?" I asked referring to my neon green Mohawk. The chick next Flint glared at me and went back to eating. I smirked in triumph and went back to eating.
Emmalyn's P.O.V
The girls remark about the red-headed Weasley's made me think of the other twins. I looked up and saw them sitting at the Gryffindor table.
"At least they're not in Hufflepuff,' was my last thought before the girl began to rant about Sydney, just loud enough for us to hear. I looked over at Sydney, who just rolled her eyes. I tried to ignore the annoying girl but my anger was steadily rising.
Finally I couldn't take it anymore, I rose from my seat and sat across from the girl as she was saying, " I bet she's a bloody lesbian."
I felt my anger increase but I contained it and put on a look of disgust.
"Oh my god. You have like no clue." I used my best valley girl voice.
"Aren't you like her twin?" the girl asked.
"Yeah and I like so have to like tell you something." I gazed at their expectant faces and let my cold fury show on my face. When I continued speaking my voice was normal and cold venom could be heard in it.
"No one messes with my sister. So you better back off before I do something irrevocable."
This entire time Sydney had been quiet but I could see a slight smirk on her face, she had probably known what I was going to do the entire time. Sometimes being a twin had it's downs, especially for surprises.
I gripped my wand under the table and whispered under my breath. I smirked as her hair became red and freckles adorned her face. I got up and began to walk away before pausing. I looked back and said, " No one messes with a Lawley."
5 years later, the train
The train stopped and the lights flickered off. We gazed over at the Golden Trio, who were just as confused as we were. I looked over at Sydney and she nodded.
"We'll go see what's going on." I said as I stood. We left before they responded. In the hallway I looked over at Sydney.
"You thinking what I'm thinking?" I asked.
"Well it depends, what are you thinking?"
"Some twin you are," I mumbled under my breath, receiving a glare form Syd. " I was thinking dementors."
"Oooohhhhh… Yes."
I nodded but never got a chance to respond because we were distracted. A few compartments ahead Draco ran screaming out of his compartment to the one across from his. I ran to the compartment he entered completely worried, Syd not far behind.
"Draco are you alright?"I asked as I entered the compartment. I halted mid-step as I saw the inhabitants of the compartment, Fred and George.
"What the fuck are you doing here?" Syd's voice asked from behind me. They rolled their eyes and said,
"This is,"
"Our compartment."
"Whatever," I snapped. I kneeled in front of Draco, "Dray, hun, what's wrong?"
"Dementors." His reply came from behind his hands. His face was buried in his hands and from the way he shoulders shook I could tell he was crying. It hurt me to see Draco like this, he was like a little brother to us.
"Did you just,"
"Call him hun?"
"Yeah," I answered distractedly.
"Why?" asked Fred, yes I could tell them apart. I rolled my eyes but before I could respond Syd did for me.
"She calls everyone hun, no need to worry." I could tell she was implying something. I made a mental note to ask her later. I took out some chocolate from my pocket and handed it to Draco, who nodded his thanks. I stood up and turned around to look at the twins and found myself less than a foot away from Fred, who was about 6 inches taller than me.
Sydney's P.O.V.
I rolled my eyes and smirked as I watched the transition between Emma and Fred Weasley. I glanced over at Fred's twin, George and blushed. Of course the other Weasley was watching me. I turned away and scowled.
"Let's go," I demanded of Emma.
"Uh..oh..yeah." Emma stuttered out while blushing. I shook my head and walked out of the compartment. Emma walked out with a trembling Draco following in her wake. The three of us went to the compartment that Draco had run out of and entered. There weren't any dementors inside and the three of us sat down.
"Dray, are you feeling better now?" Emma asked.
"I-I think so," Draco said, still trembling slightly.
"Don't worry, Dray. Here," I said as I gave him another piece of chocolate.
"Thanks," Draco said taking the chocolate and eating it slowly.
"What was with you and Fred?" I asked turning to my twin.
"What do you mean?" Emma asked as if she was oblivious.
"You know what I mean. What was up with you two in the other compartment?" I demanded.
"Nothing was up between us, but because we're on the subject, what was that between you and George?" Emma asked folding her arms.
"What do you mean?"
"Now, who's playing stupid?" Emma laughed.
"Shut up and I don't know what you're talking about."
"I saw George watching you. Your blush was very cute, by the way.," Emma smiled.
"Look, I was just wierded out okay?"
"You are lying. We're twins for goodness sakes."
"Fine, all right. Yes, I did notice George watching me and yes I may have a small crush on him, " I finally admitted.
"Ha! I knew it. So, how are you going to approach him?"
"I'm not going to"
"Don't be a pansy. Just talk to him."
"Yeah? I'll do that the day you talk to Fred."
"Damn you!" Emma laughed. The train began to slow down as it approached Hogwarts.
Emmalyn's P.O.V.
I turned my attention to a very curious Draco.
"How are ya hun?" I asked nothing that he trembled every now and then.
"Fine." He said, while staring out the window. I sat down next to him and placed an arm around his shoulders.
"Want to tell me what the memory was? It'll help to talk about it." My voice was soft and reassuring. Draco turned and looked me straight in the eyes with his pain filled ones.
"It..It was about my dad. And when he found out about my crush." Draco threw a pointed looked at Sydney and I, we nodded our understanding. He sighed and continued.
"I could hear every scream, every threat. I remembered the angry gleam in his eyes..And I felt the pain of…the beatings." I stiffened up at the mention of the beatings but quickly relaxed and pulled Draco into my arms.
I opened my mouth to say something comforting but couldn't because the train jerked to a stop. Draco and I barely managed to not fall but Sydney, who had been standing, was now on the floor with an annoyed look on her face.
She stood up and brushed off her robes while grumbling about morons who can't drive. I looked at her and an idea came to me. I turned to the window and leaned out of it slightly. I pointed my wand at the last carriage and whispered, "Scondia."
I cloaked it so all other students, except us and Fred and George, would pass right by it. I turned towards Sydney and took a deep breath.
"Lets make a deal."
Sid looked at me suspiciously and asked, "What's the deal?"
"When I start making moves on Fred you have to make a move on George."
Sydney smirked and I know she thought I'd never get the guts to talk to Fred.
"Deal." she said. We touched the tips of our wands together and said "Premas." A bright light erupted from our wands and we absorbed it. I glanced out the window and saw the twins enter the last carriage.
I smiled and said, " come on or we'll miss the carriages. We hurried to the last carriage, all others had their doors closed already. I looked in and smiled at the twins.
"Can we ride with you? All other carriages are full." The raised an eyebrow at my smile but nodded.
I smiled again and entered, sting down next to Fred, not bothering to fix my skirt which had ridden half way up my thighs. I saw Fred's eyes glance down at my lap and smirked. Syd had been forced to sit next to George and looked uncomfortable. I could see Draco smirking at her uneasiness.
"So, you planning any surprises during the welcoming feast?" I said to Fred.
"Nah, decided to give the first years a false sense of security." He replied.
I laughed and responded, "Wicked." I smiled my most alluring smile and watched him blush. I looked over at Sydney who was trying to fight the deal. If she didn't give in soon the magic would take over. That and refusing is extremely painful.
The carriage stopped and we walked to the Great Hall together. When we got there I linked an arm through Syd's and Draco's.
"See ya, Fred." I said, deliberately making my voice sound husky. I winked at Fred and turned around to the Slytherin table. I walked to the table, swaying my hips seductively. I could feel his eyes watching me the entire time, and I couldn't help but smirk.
Sydney's P.O.V.
"I'm going to get you for that," I hissed at my twin
Emma laughed as we made our way to the Slytherin table. The sorting ceremony began and I watched the two Weasley twins whisper to each other. George smiled at his twin and I felt my stomach flutter. I heard Emma giggle and I turned to glare at her.
"Remember, you have to do it," Emma said smiling.
"Yeah, yeah. I know," I scowled.
The sorting ended and the feast began. I ate little because my stomach hurt. I sighed when the feast ended and stood from the table. My stomach gave another pain and I moaned.
"I'm going to the infirmary," I said to Emma.
"Are you alright?" Emma asked.
"Stomach pains," I said as I left the hall.
I walked down one of the corridors and bumped into someone. I nearly fell, but I was grabbed by a strong pair of arms that wrapped around my waist. I looked up and blushed when I saw George. He was watching me curiously.
"Are you okay?" he asked.
"Yeah, I'm fine. Sorry about knocking into you."
"Don't worry about it. Where were you going?"
"I was going to see Madam Pomfrey," I said laughing nervously.
"Do you want me to go with you?" George asked in concern.
"No, I'll be fine," I grimaced.
I unwound from George's arms and attempted to go to the infirmary. I felt another sharp pang and than I was on the floor. George rushed over to me and picked me up. I wrapped my arms around his neck and leaned my head against his shoulder.
"You're going to be fine," George said as he took me to see Madam Pomfrey.
"Thanks, George," I murmured as I kissed his cheek.
George blushed and avoided my eyes. I continued to lean my head against his shoulder as we walked in the infirmary. Madam Pomfrey tsked and told George to put me down. George set me down and backed away as Madam Pomfrey checked my temperature.
"You may leave, Mr. Weasley. Ms. Lawley will be fine," Madam Pomfrey stated.
George nodded before looking at me and waving goodbye. I smiled and mouthed thank you. George smiled and left. Madam Pomfrey checked over me and said I had a simple stomach ache. She gave me a pepper-up potion and sent me back to Slytherin.
