Disclaimer - this world I play in is not mine…and I play fast and loose with JKR's cannon….the last two books are especially ignored.
A series of drabbles some super short….some not as short…just a bit of mindless fun with Percy. Mostly . Who knows maybe they will somehow grow wildly out of control.. I honestly don't see that happening but ya' never know. Thanks to my pals online and in real life for helping come up with the titles for each chapter.
Percy's Diary,
My Journal by Percy I. Weasley
My Free writing experiment….
The few drabbles will be called….
The Accidental Boyfriend
A Fool's Fate
Exceptional Mediocrity
Maybe I am Playing for the Wrong Team
So without further ado…
The Accidental Boyfriend
My youngest sibling caught me being kissed by Penelope Clearwater.
Ginny thinks it's terribly romantic. She believes I was quite desperately snogging with a fellow prefect in an abandoned classroom. She wants to know all the details of our relationship. I can't convince her of the truth. She says my hands were all over Penny.
And to be honest, my hands were all over Penny. I was trying to get her mouth off of my face.
This is quite a disaster.
I spent the last summer writing to her because we were both young and confused and trying to find out who we really are before having to start living true adult lives. It was great to have someone to commiserate with for once.
She thought I was trying to court her!
She told all her friends we are dating.
Yes we spend a lot of time together. We talk about everything under the sun and stars.
I admit to holding her hand.
I may have brushed her blonde bangs off her face a time or ten.
I gave her a small Christmas gift. But it was nothing deeply personal. Dad had given me a muggle day planner. I had found it quite useful especially when I enhanced it with a few charms. She said had been having trouble keeping study groups, prefect patrols, extra credit, homework, and life in general organized. It wasn't an especially romantic gift.
I wasn't looking for a girlfriend.
Honestly, this is the last year of our Hogwarts education it is no time for romantic involvement!
Fred and George think I am asexual.
Sometimes I think they are right.
There is a little cubby hole excellent for hiding…ahem…I mean studying behind a tapestry near the Ravenclaw open study area on the fifth floor.
While I was hiding Penny and her very best friend entered the room. I could hear them giggling and dragging some of the heavy cushions around the floor. They dropped the cushions in front of my tapestry. For a moment I thought I had been discovered and would be dragged out to join them.
Fortunately I had not been discovered. However I did learn some interesting information.
Penelope Clearwater thinks I am going to ask her to marry me the day we leave Hogwarts. Apparently I plan to make some sort of grand announcement of our engagement in front of our families when we arrive at platform 9 ¾.
I hate being made a spectacle of…why would I make a spectacle of myself?
I have to convince Penny to break up with me.
I don't want to get married yet.
I also don't want to break her heart.
I didn't even know that it was mine to break!
Why me.
