Chapter 6

"Hey Luna. What are you doing?" I asked the blonde third year Ravenclaw. People thought she was weird, but I find her quite a good person. It was that people thought she was a little bit ditzy and she usually talks about magical creatures that don't exist. We all have something that makes us unique and I figured that this is what made her unique.

Luna turned and smiled her dreamlike smile at me, "Oh. Nikki, I'm just looking for the nargals. They have seemed to have stolen my potion's book again." I giggled at her. I knew nargals didn't take her stuff. Some Slytherins probably stole it from her and hid it.

"Don't worry, Luna. We'll find your stuff before dinner." I said smiling. I was going to have to hurt those Slytherin, who decided to mess with her. They just better hope that I'm still in a good mood when I get around to dealing with them, or they might just end up in the Hospital.

We began to walk towards the Black Lake. It was kind of peaceful, except for the fact that everyone was hanging with the other students that came for the Triwizard Tournament. It was a little disheartening. The first task was going to be tomorrow and Harry is working on something with Hermione.

I sighed and sat down on the ground under the tree. Luna sat down next to me. "Nikki, is there something going on with you and one of the Weasley twins?" I stiffened.

"What are you talking about Luna? I'm friends with the twins. I'm best friends with George though." I said quietly. I wonder how many rumors where already going around the school. There was nothing going on between anybody. Nothing between George and I, and nothing between Malfoy and I.

"Well, there's rumors going around that you and George are secretly dating." she paused to think. Luna probably is thinking about whether or not she saw something. "Nikki, there is something that you need to know. Boys and girls can't be best friends without one falling for the other. Do you know what I mean?"

I nodded my head. What she said did make sense... It kind of shocked me. That would explain the weird feelings I have been getting around him. Had I fallen for him? I started blushing really bad, because I knew the truth. I had fallen for him. There was no way that I was going to tell him that. It would ruin our friendship.

I stood up and Luna stood up with me. I gave her a hug, "Thanks. I have to go and do something. We'll go get your potion's book later alright? Bye!" I started running back to the Castle. I was surprised that I hadn't realized it sooner though and I was supposed to be the top witch in our year. Wow, was I slow.

I ran to the Fat Lady. "Chocolate Frogs!" I yelled from down the corridor. She swung open and I ran right in. I was panting. It was like I ran a marathon. I never ran this much. I hated running with a passion.

The group turned around and looked at me. I plopped down between Harry and Hermione on the couch. I looked around to see if the Twins were around. When I thought it was safe to say that they weren't around, I turned back to face every one.

Hermione looked at me, "Nikki, are you okay? Your face is really red." I quickly dropped my head so nobody else in the common room could tell.

I started playing with the end of my hair. Hopefully Ron and my brother would know better then to say anything stupid right now. "I figured it out? Does that make any sense Hermione?" I said whispering. Everyone that could hear me mouth's dropped open.

Hermione grinned, "I knew it! You should go and tell him!" I opened my eyes wide in fear. I couldn't believe that she just suggested that I should tell George I like him! She has officially lost her mind. I can't just go up to my best friend and tell him I have a major crush on him. Hermione was supposed to be the smart one, not the stupid one. That was Ron's job.

"Wait are you saying that you like George?" my brother exclaimed very loudly. I turned and glared at him. Harry was being so stupid. Didn't he know to keep his mouth quiet? No he just had to open his mouth didn't he? I swear sometimes I don't know how we are related. He could be so dense sometimes.

"Shut your mouth!" I hissed at him. I didn't need the whole House of Gryffindor knowing that I had a crush on one of the Pranksters. That would be very bad and rumors would start running around the whole school. I just didn't have time to deal with it. There were already rumors going around that we were secretly dating each other. I just didn't have the time to deal with all this drama.

Ron rolled his eyes, "I can't believe you like my older brother. Well at least I can that I'm glad that it ain't Perce though. I just still can't believe this." I let out a sigh. I was expecting that Ron was going to yell at me and call me loony. So I it wasn't that bad.

I sighed and Hermione looked at me seriously, "Now that you realized this... What are you going to do about it? You just can't keep it quiet." Oh she didn't know me to well did she? I could keep something a secret from anybody I wanted to.

"Hermione, there is no need to do anything about it. It's probably just a stupid crush, that I'll get over it in a couple weeks. Plus there's no way he can feel the same way as me." I said rolling my eyes. It was the truth. There was no way that George felt the same way about me. So why bother get my heartbroken.

"Who's this he?" a voice asked from behind me. I jumped slightly into the air. I turned around to see the twins standing behind the couch. Fred was smirking knowingly. Fred hadn't asked who he was. It had been George who asked... This was not good.

"Awkward..." Ron muttered under his breath. I shot a glare at him. He was going to give me away if he didn't shut that mouth of his. Maybe I just will have to shut it for him with a prank... What could I do...

I started twirling my wand around nervously, "Oh nobody important. Nobody that you guys need to know... It's nothing." My hands started to get clamy. I dropped my wand on the ground because it had slipped out of my hands. I bent down to pick it up quickly.

"Mhm. Sure Rainey. We'll believe you this time. Next time though we want to know who this he is." Fred said smirking at me. Like I would tell him that I had a crush on his twin. He would be the last one to know about anything. Fred would just go straight back to George and tell him everything. That was the last thing I need right about now.

I rolled my eyes at him. He just had to be so immature at times. It was so annoying. "Whatever... I have things I need to do. Things like not being around you, Twins." I said in mock angry. I just couldn't be around George.

"Aw, Nikki! What did we do to you? I don't remember saying anything to you or doing anything to you." George said in mock sadness and hurt. Or that's what I thought. That's the point though. He didn't say anything or do anything to me, he just doesn't like me like that. I wasn't about to tell him that though.

I headed for the dormotory stairs. I climbed them and went to Hermione and mine's room. We of course shared with other girls, but we just didn't get along with them to well. They usually were never in the dorm room anyways. They usually were to busy chasing guys around.

I flung myself, put my head in my pillow, and screamed on the top of my lungs. I hope that muffled out most of the sound. I didn't need those dang boys trying to run up the stairs and turning them into slides. That would be very bad for us.

I began to cry. I didn't understand why, but I guess I just need to cry. There was no set reason to cry, it was just everything in general. The door opened slightly. Somebody sat down on my bed. "Nikki, it'll be okay. Everything is going to be okay. I promise you that." Hermione said. I sat up on my bed and hugged her.

"Hermione... I'm just so confused. I mean I know that I like him and everything. I just don't understand why I started liking him or when... It just like happened..." I said. It was strange. When I was in the Common Room, I was fine with it and I wasn't so emotional.

Hermione rubbed my back trying to calm me down, "It was bound to happen. To one of you or both of you. You guys were always together and he was always there for you. It wasn't something that just happened out of the blue. We actually saw it coming in our second year. Fred was the first one to say some to George about it." So they saw it coming... They didn't bother to warn me about this.

I moved away from her and sat up straight on the bed, "So I've basically fell for somebody who won't ever feel the same way as me. This totally sucks." I sighed. Could my life become anymore complicated then it was already? Merlin knows what will happen next.

Hermione sighed also, "I didn't say that. I don't know how George feels about you. Maybe you need to tell him and see if he feels the same way as you. It's the only way you'll find out anything. You have to take take charge because you know how oblivious those red headed Weasley boys can be." I giggled quietly to myself. She was right. Those Weasley boys could be so thick headed some times. Oh and she forgot to say have emotional range of a teaspoon, but that is still to much for them.

I smiled, "Your quite right, Hermione. They are thickheaded and oblivious." She smiled at me. I just would have to get over this crush. I needed to find a boyfriend. Who in their right mind would want to date me? Harry, Ron, George, and Fred would kill any boy that comes in a foot distance of me. Oh and don't forget Sirius. He's just as willing to kill those boys.

"See! You just have to find the funny in things that make you upset. Plus, your one of the pranksters. You can't be upset. What would that do to your rep?" Hermione said beginning to grin at me. She was right, I couldn't be down over something so stupid.

I got up and headed for the door, "Your right, Hermione. I got to keep smiling no matter what... Now I have some Slytherin's butts to kick. I'll see you guys at dinner." I left the room grinning.
