Valentine's Dismay

Description: It's Valentine's Day in Hogwarts and a ball is being held. Fred and George decide to slip a little something into the punch to liven things up.

Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter or its characters, I just write these stories for pure fun!

The Ball Commences.

"Showtime" Fred grinned as they walked into the ball. Music was playing and the atmosphere was lively. No one was really dancing yet, and several teachers were monitoring the room.

"You make sure no one sees" George whispered before sneaking off to a long wooden table with food and candles on it. A large crystal punch bowl was situated in the middle of the table.

Fred looked around the hall and saw Harry, Ron, Hermione and Ginny enter. He bounded over to them, a wide grin on his face.

"Evening" He grinned.

"Evening" They echoed.

"Where's George?" Ron asked, looking behind Fred.

"He's just getting a drink, he'll be back in a minute, why don't you guys get a drink?" Fred asked.

Hermione looked at Fred suspiciously. "What did you do to it?" She asked.

"Miss Granger I am insulted that you would accuse me of such a thing" Fred pretended to be shocked.

"Whatever Fred" Ginny rolled her eyes, wise to her brothers' tricks.

"Mission accomplished" George grinned, appearing beside Fred.

"Nice, now we play the waiting game" Fred grinned as the twins walked to the centre of the crowd.

"I actually could do with a drink" Ginny told her friends.

"Alright, let's go" Hermione replied.

Snape strode over to the table where the food and drink was held. He inspected the punch to make sure it wasn't a funny colour. He didn't trust some students, especially not two certain red-headed twins.

He thought the punch looked ok and was about to walk over to his original post when he heard a noise. He spun around and saw Ginny Weasley with a huge smile on her face looking right at him.

"Is everything alright Miss Weasley?" He enquired.

"Just peachy…professor" She replied, bursting into a fit of giggles at the last word. Snape was surprised, he had never known her to act like that.

"Very well" He stated and headed off when something hooked on his arm.

"Did anyone ever tell you that you have a cute bottom? It's very…peachy" Ginny giggled, a love-struck look on her face.

"Miss Weasley that language is not appropriate for a student addressing a teacher" He glared.

"It's truuue" She sang. She giggled un-controllably again and moved in closer to him. "Everyone says you're really nasty and miserable but I think you're lovely, you know" Ginny had a goofy expression.

Ron, Hermione and Harry were standing by the table talking when Ron looked over and saw Ginny clinging onto Professor Snape's arm as he tried to walk away. She had a love struck look on her face.

"Guys…why is my sister making googly-eyes at Snape?" Ron asked.

The others turned to look and supressed a laugh.

"It's not funny!" Ron hissed.

"No, you're right, I'll go get her" Hermione smiled before walking over to Ginny and Snape, who looked like he wanted his arm cut off.

"Ginny, will you come with me, Ron needs to talk to you" Hermione told Ginny.

"Tell my brother he can wait, I'm busy with peachy bottom, isn't he amazing" Ginny grinned at Snape, who turned bright red.

"Miss Granger, if you could kindly take Miss Weasley away from me I will award Gryffindor ten points." Snape had a hint of begging in his tone.

"Of course Professor" Hermione took Ginny's arm and pulled her away.

"Bye peachy bottom!" Ginny called after Snape, who practically ran out of the room.

"Oh Hermione isn't he just so dreamy…" Ginny had a love-struck look on her face.

"Ginny what's gotten into you? Have you been drinking?" Hermione asked as they approached Harry and Ron.

"No I have not, Hermione, you should have some punch, it might loosen you up" Ginny replied.

"I don't need to be loosened, I'm perfectly fine" Hermione stated. She let go of Ginny's arm and gasped as Ginny ran out of the room.

"I'm coming peachy bottom!" She called as she ran.

"Peachy bottom?" Harry and Ron looked dumbfounded.

"Long story" Hermione sighed.

And so the fun starts. I think the idea of Ginny calling Snape peachy bottom is quite funny. More couples to come and if you have any requests for couples let me know Review Please Peace x.
