Addie looked next to her, "Fred that's George's seat."
"Bloody hell our own mother can't tell us apart but you can?" Fred switched with George but now there was a twin on both sides of her.
Lottie piped in, "how do you tell them apart? I've never seen you mistake them."
Addie just shrugged not wanting to fess up her secret. "I'm just good."
Lottie was not about to forget about the fun she had planned. "Now to truth or dare!" Right at that moment the train came to a stop.
Addie let out a sigh of relief, "I guess that's a rain check......darn."
George could tell by her sarcasm that Addie really didn't want to play but he didn't know why. "Don't worry Addie there is still the carriage ride."
"George
you are a real pain!"
Addie
was the last one out of the compartment. Fred was going to let her go
in front of him but she had to grab her purse. Stepping off the train
Fred turned around to say something to Addie when she fell right into
his arms. Addie stood up maroon red and turned to Malfoy who had
caused the fall.
"Addie are you okay or should we teach you how to walk?" Fred tried to cheer her up but Draco had a plan of his own.
"Addie is it now? hmm well I obviously can't make a fattie joke," he looked her up and down. "Guess I'll stick with a new one how about Addie's has no daddy."
Lottie came to the rescue of Addie who was torn between crying or socking the twerp. "Draco leave her alone, run along with the first years."
George
and Fred walked beside Addie to the carriages.
"He's
a jerk.""And
our new target."
The twins smirked at Addie.
Obviously the events had not bothered Lottie because she was all ready to play truth or dare. "Lee truth or dare?"
"Truth"
"ug Boring! who is more fun Fred or George?"
"Fred is less serious so him." Lee replied quickly which stirred George. "Addie truth or dare?"
"Truth I guess" Addie knew a dare would end badly.
"Why did Malfoy say you have no father?" Lottie hit Lee in the arm for asking the question.
"Its okay you guys are my friends I should be able to tell secrets I guess. My father is a muggle and didn't want my mom and I when he found out about my mom being a witch so he left when I was 1. Draco is just nosey and knows too much hence the name mouthy." No one really said anything so Addie decided to continue the game. "Fred truth or dare?"
"Dare of course." Addie knew he would.
"I dare you to let me set off the first prank on Draco."
Fred was taken back. "Sure but that's the easiest dare ever." Addie was content with her new accomplishment. There was only time for one more. "George truth or dare?"
"Truth"
"Who is prettier Addie or Lottie?"
"Sorry girls but it's Addie hands down."
Addie was shocked that someone said she was pretty but she didn't blush. When exiting the carriage Fred turned and helped Addie down while whispering, "just so you stay on your feet this time." Fred ran to catch up with the others after giving Addie a smirk and a wink.
Potions was as dull as ever but if Addie ever needed a musical metal melting mouthwash, she would know how. A paper car came cruising by Addie from her far right making her smirk. She opened the cute note carefully by pulling the doors open and the whole thing unfolded before her.
The Draco Dare after lunch. Show me how good you are and I might let you pull other off. By the way George keeps looking at your paper.-Fred
Adeline wrote back explaining her excitement about the prank and teased Fred about his chicken scratch of handwriting and how worse his grades were compared to George's no matter what tactics he used. Addie fixed her note into a squirrel and it gracefully tip toed to Fred. Before the squirrel made it to Fred it went up in flames. Addie's face was mixed with confusion as well as sorrow for the poor paper squirrel.
"Miss Targ, detention this evening for not paying attention, keep your quill out."
Addie spent the rest of the day steaming over Snape's rudeness pay back was surely in his future. The day might have been eventful or pleasant but Addie was holding this grudge against Snape and her temper kept Lottie and the boys away from pestering her.
