I was barely alive by the time Ray came charging back into the rooms I was just making a rather zombie-fied shuffle back to my bed (I managed to forget my duck slippers so my feet were freezing) with my morning cup of tea, cause the second she walked in she walked into our shared dorm I received a bag to the face while the squealing girl ran and belly flopped on GG's bed.
So while she was doing that at the sound of my skull hitting the wall behind me startled Alex awake…my good she looks like a permed bush baby…
Who kept looking at my cup of tea, well the bit of it left in the cup and not spread about on my arm leg and rather soaked Iron Man pyjamas (don't judge me peasants!)
Evidently we both looked weird because when GG (who was hearing all the latest Ravenclaw gossip) looked over she rolled off of her bed with tears of laughter in her eyes.
Meany.
Ray looked over as well but instead of rolling off of the bed laughing she looked kind of panicked and I couldn't figure out why well for a minute I couldn't figure out why but then the world turned black.
…
I noticed three things when I woke up, one I was still not wearing my duck slippers, and two I was without my light up arc reactor pyjama top (which I'm still proud of mastering the skill to sleep in these, as the light keeps going off in the night. Subtle tip: Eye Mask)
And three: the place I was currently sat in STUNK of antiseptic, I mean it literally reeked.
Wait did I finish cleaning the floor?
Well yeah…I did get to class *check*
Did do a little flirting*check*
Did watch Seamus and Ray form another explosion*check*
Well then where the hell am I? It was then I noticed GG sat at the end of my hospital bed.
"Cap I'm just gonna get this" Abstract arm wave above my head *double check* "out of the air, why am I in the medical ward?" it was then I noticed my Captain was lovingly eating ALL of my get well soon sweets.
Game on bro, game on.
It seems my GG has lightning reflexes on the Quidditch court but in real life, well she kind of sucks it's easy to tell by the way she went a flailing as another two chocolate frogs went sailing through the air.
The fact I'm currently in a hospital did not stop her from grabbing one of the chocolate frogs off of the floor, then bitch slap me round the face with it, gotta say though the girls got a god damn hard hit; is this why when on holiday no own will help her practise with her boxing training?
"Alright…sorry about that" She I don't know she seemed to deflate after that and I soon found out why, there were deep dark circles under her eyes she looked so tired.
"GG when did you last sleep?"
"When you went down I thought I thought I'd apply our pact about if someone gets hurt on the Quidditch pitch to all of your injuries, and trust me there are many"
With that here cheeky grin reappeared, and yeah I think we all stick by that pact no matter what it states if one of us gets injured the rest wait by their bed until they are ready to go back to lessons or at least the dorm room when one of us is with them until they are up on their feet again.
Wow this is kind of depressing, but it's nice to know they care so much.
Oh god I'm going to cry, ok breath Annalise you're a Slytherin not some wet cloth Hufflepuff! Wait…where are the others? Evidently my confused face is very obvious as GG started talking as soon as the thought crossed my mind.
"Ray is currently at the mercy of Snape who banished her to the Forbidden Forest and Alex, well I don't know she got really upset when you went down and just had a lot of coffee well at least I think it was coffee she did get a little weird after…hmm not sure really"
"But we all know she doesn't drink?"
"Yeah that's what I was saying!" it was at this time with her arms swinging above her head like a helicopter trying (and failing) to take off. Just as I was about to tell her about my amazing inference the doors to the medical wing cracked open just slightly it was easy to tell from this that it was not Ray or Alex coming to pay me a visit as both of them would flung the doors back on their hinges screaming "Is she alive!"
Just because they are so lovely like that no, when the door opened it revealed two rather glowing sets of red hair…self-conscious glance back to my own hair nope its still a bloody red colour.
Phew.
Wait; is that a good or a bad thing? Unfortunately I had not time to freak out with panic as a rather deep voice echoed through the otherwise quite wing (rather startling the nurse who was on duty at the time)
"Hello sleeping beauty how are you on this fine afternoon?"
"Feeling like crap, you know even worse than the time Ray managed to release a noxious gas in Snape's lesson you know how it is" The dismissive wave of my hand in front of my face swiftly stilled as I caught site of the bouquet of yellow roses Fred held in his hand. OH MY ARE THOSE FOR ME, CRAP MY FACE IS ON FIRE.
DON'T LAUGH AT ME PEASENT!
But there was a sweet smile on his face one I couldn't help but smirk *grin* back to him well, I was smiling till GG's elbow tried to burrow between my ribs into my lung.
"What the hell G?"
"What you looked kind of dazed I was just checking you were ok!"
A scathing look of disappointment seemed to sum up my feelings pretty well at this moment at this time, GG once again showed just how much she loved me by raising the chocolate frog she had earlier hit me round the face with and eating it. Whole. I mean like legs and everything it was kind of freaky to look at, I think the twins agreed as Fred began to give an awkward chuckle while George gave her a look that held shock, horror and a small amount of what was that?
Pride? How can you be proud of something like that?!
After that moment it got slightly awkward and even GG (who was about as intuitive as a Mountain Troll no hard feelings bro at times seemed to notice) so we all just sat there, staring at each other.
"Well why don't we go do something else? You know I do love sitting within the most uncomfortable group of visitors ever I would love to stretch my legs" I stood up THANK GOD I'M NOT IN A HOSPITAL GOWN OR THIS COULD GET AWKWARD!
But seemingly fate was being a troll so with that thought in mind I somehow managed to drop slightly to the side suffering from a major case of head rush, luckily GG was there to catch me although it did get slightly weird when she started singing "AND IIIIIIIII WILL ALWAYS LOOOOVE YOOOU" and petting the side of my face.
I mean it's more normal in my animagus state at least then I am cute and cuddly, I mean as I said before im not that short in regular life. Swift punch to the gut sorted that out.
"Alright with her on the floor wheezing what do you guys want to do?"
Fred started to lower the bouquet of roses with a grin on his face, his eyes quickly flicked back to George who had adapted the same facial expression.
"Well actually we already had a plan in place of something to do if you were starting to feel better"
…Was it normal to fear a raised eyebrow because the expression currently adorning his face I'm pretty sure will haunt me for the rest of my life.
"What is this incredible plan then?" As I pulled GG up by her elbow into a standing position both twins grins increased till I thought they were going to split the boys faces in half, now that would definitely be an image that would haunt me for the rest of my life.
"Balls…"oh crap now we're giggling.
"Shut up he's going to hear" the giggling died down once GG had hissed this at everyone else currently in residence under the round red velvet covered table's…god that would look weird on the address area of a letter wouldn't it?
"You think you've got it bad your Slytherin's" (synchronised snicker from me and GG at the well-known Slytherin chat up line) "If he sees us he's going to have us hung drawn and quartered!" Why are they all hissing? Has Spoopy been training them or something, well that wouldn't actually surprise me at all.
"And it not even Snape's classroom!" ok that was definitely not a hiss more of a squeak, maybe Captain Twerk's been at this training thing as well, anyway I could only just make out George's shape as he was curled on the other underside of the table with Fred closer to us, well I say us GG was in front of me as I was currently cradling many crystal balls close to my body FOR A SCHEME MIGHT I ADD THAT WASN'T EVEN MINE!
Anyway hooking the bottom of my t-shirt (what you don't honestly think we wear the robes all the time do you be serious) under the balls (tee-hee) I quickly hooked a single finger under the red velvet currently acting as a curtain that was saving our asses I peeked out and saw Snape with one eyebrow raised contentedly glaring at our chosen hiding spot well. Nothing else to do here might as well go in for a penny in for a pound *Live long and prosper hand* It was at this point one of the crystal balls I was holding slipped from my grasp and went on a rather long journey rolling out from under the table and creepily slowly rolling down the steps to the main floor of the Divination classroom, this is when we die then. It was nice knowing (most) of you.
Snape's eyebrow somehow raised even further up his face, I don't even know how before he gave a slight shake of his head and…wait what? Did he just, yes yes he did he did just chuckle and maybe there was even a ghost of a smirk upon his face but I couldn't honestly tell you for sure.
I was still in shock when GG called "Ok douche bags we're out of here" this was before she pulled me out of my spot under the table by my ankle not really putting too much care into her movements considering she was currently pulling me down a flight of stairs, I was still too much in shock to move but I did repeat "ow!" every time my head crashed into the next step.
When finally (!) we reached the bottom of the stairs GG grabbed my free hand and dragged me into a standing position, I turned to the twins who looked rather like they couldn't decide whether to laugh or question the whole stair fiasco just then.
"Alright lead us to your secret lair or wherever we are going"
Saying this made Fred laugh and George turn a light shade of pink (Adorable baby!) any the Fred decided to graciously take the lead shouting over his shoulder
"This way ladies and that includes you Jeanna!" hmm to pee or not to pee with laughter as G went after Fred with murderous intent aglow in her eyes, god did he just shout I should probably cheek on him. That was before a rather shaky hand caught the top of my arm. Turning I saw George stood there still sporting a faint pink blush…oh no. He's not going to say he loves me is he? God if he does I'm gonna puke, and I've only had tea so far today so it's mostly gonna be bile. Ok that's a gross thought even for me.
*Cough*
"Yes George can I help you?" Well I sound like a douche (nothing new there then!) shut up brain!
"umm sorry, I just wanted to ask if Alex is ok I mean I saw her running through the courtyard earlier, and she just seemed off is all" Ahh he just did that little shrug thing that so cute! I opened my mouth to answer when GG shouted down the hall "That if you stay in there much longer you'll get a reputation like Ray!"
I ran. Like a bat out of hell.
Once we were all walking in a group, well it was more like a formation of sorts really as Fred took a forward position to lead us all to our final destination GG stood to my left and George at my right while I guarded the crystal balls in the middle, we look like some crappy mafia.
But I feel the sniggering ruined the effect, and it got worse when GG turned to me to question "Why do you look like you are about to wet yourself?"
"Cause I kind of have to go, what about you captain what's your excuse?"
GG snorted and turned to start talking to Fred who had enquired why we were discussing my incontinence, I quickly whipped to my head to the side to talk to George while the others were occupied "She's fine sweetie" WHATS WITH THE USE OF ENDEARMENT BAIN GOD LOOK AT HIM HE LOOKS LIKE A TOMATO! "She just doesn't like blood so this morning might of thrown her off her game a bit" Ok brain first the3 endearment now the grin what are you smoking!? (Everything you smoke idiot!)…this is probably a bad sign that I'm now answering myself.
…
"Ok what the hell?" why do I sound so damn excited? I honestly sound like giddy had a baby with helium voice that what this sounds like! I haven't sounded this excited since I first found out that Captain Twerk can be used as a missile in a fight, one of my best discoveries actually that when did I found that out again? OI! Focus we were shocked remember brain? Anyway there were four golf bags resting there each with a few clubs in, I would name them but I honestly have no idea what their called.
Why would I?
Fred proceeded to swagger up to the golf bags; for a Gryffindor that boy does have swag you can't take that from him. He picked a club up (again I couldn't tell you which one it had a handle is pretty much all I can tell from it) twirled it around for a few seconds in his hand before grabbing the head of it and swinging the handle up in my direction.
Whoever says it looked like I was going to crap myself through fear is lying…I was almost in tears though, ALMOST.
"Drop the balls!" sweetie they hit the floor before you opened your mouth! And the Z formation snapping commences!
"Don't get her excited" now for the evil eye turn towards GG whilst the twins were in fits of hysterical laughter. I turned back to them slitted my eyes put my hands on my hips and put my feet at shoulder width apart(with both chest and butt slightly stuck out) you know a pose that is both kind of sexy but at the same time I could probably castrate them both with just my glare.
Deep breath in. Oh now they look panicked.
"I can't golf" was all that I uttered. At this George just seemed to sort of deflate or something while Fred gave off another loud bout of laughter, which GG quite happily joined in with.
…
Well this isn't awkward. At least there's nothing going on down there with him or I would probably discover a whole new shade of dark red with the colour my face would go. I say this because Fred was currently pressed up against my back teaching me how to swing, and you know not to be big headed or anything I must say I'm pretty good and by pretty good I mean like a bo-WHY JEANNA CANT YOU JUST LET ME CELEBRATE NOT SUCKING AT A SPORT FOR JUST A FEW MINUETES!
I say this because just beside me GG is currently taking out at least three first years a minute using the crystal balls as ammo, why did she have to be so god damn god at sports!? I've only taken out like three over the past half an hour and that's with help! It was at this point Fred chose to lean down and whisper to me
"You know if you frown like that for much longer I'm pretty sure the lines won't leave your face" well played good sir neutral expression activate! "Anyway you just need to find a target and focus on it completely to hit, so just look out in the field and find one then we shoot" Ok I can do this with that I scanned the field I obviously wasn't going to get any of the first years trekking back from Hagrids lesson now as GG and George had scattered them with their precision hits, so um who was I going to ge~
WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT!
It was just like this black shape charging across the field with Draco going after it. Hmm Draco.
"I want to hit Draco" I said pointing out where he was to Fred who was still behind me.
"Oh god yes!" With that I (Fred actually) positioned the club and the ball so it would definitely catch Draco it little way ahead, I was told we had to hit him this was as he was still running.
Ok, three…two…ONE!
For three whole seconds then I thought I was going to puke, until he hit the ground. Then I just screamed with excitement! I kind of launched myself into a hug with GG who was so shocked she almost dropped me, luckily though her reflexes seemed to be working this time around as she managed to grab me before I went down, then with a shaking hand I pointed out a fallen Draco on the field.
Then I did drop, and drop hard.
By the time I managed to jump back up GG was already halfway down the hill, rolling my eyes I charged after her with the twins (who had finally finished whooping with glee) in hot pursuit when we finally reached Draco he still hadn't moved from his spot. We kind of just stood round him not really knowing what to do thankfully George was there to Poke Draco in the side a few times.
This although seemingly harsh seemed to do the trick and wake him up a bit.
While Draco was still blinking blearily in the afternoon sunlight, GG demanded what he was chasing across the field (yay I wasn't the only one who'd seen it then!) at this Draco blushed, and im pretty damn sure it reached the tips of his ears when Ray charged over asking why none of us were already looking for Alex.
Why would I be…wait random black shape…oh crap yeah her animagus is a freaking Black wolf. (Only slightly less cool then mine I must say)
GG turned to me with a serious look in her eyes after gently dropping Draco's head back onto the floor, had she been cradling it since we first got here? "You've to change" Putting her finger on my lips to silence me when I began to argue "We could find her so much more quickly!"
"Yeah we probably could…IF MY ANIMAGUS WASN'T A BABY PANDA!"
