A/N: The parts pertaining to George will be a lot less frequent after this and they will most likely be filler until we get towards the end so forgive me for the shortness and fillerness of this chapter.
"What?! I have to go to school!? In the summer!?" Fred couldn't believe what he was hearing. "Yeah, Serina and I had planned to carpool to summer school. Just think of it as a jump start on muggle studies." Sedona spoke over the phone. "When does it start?" Fred asked with a sigh.
"It's an honors biology class that starts tomorrow at 7:00 am and goes until 1:00 pm."
"And Serina signed up for this why?"
"She wanted to be able to take easier classes during the school year."
"That makes her sound like Hermione; always wanting to do more work."
"She's definitely a girl of mixed interests and ambitions." Sedona said remembering Serina's outlandish imagination and sense of responsibility about her school work.
"Oh well, I guess there's nothing I can do. I bet Serina is having a much harder time since she has to conceal her identity in the wizarding world which is much harder to do."
"She knows more about wizards than you think so she'll probably pull through ok."
The phone conversation was cut short by Serina's mother coming into the room and telling George to turn off the lights and sleep. "Okay. I'll see you tomorrow then." Fred replied yawning tiredly. "Bright and early. Good night Serina!" George found it surprising that she was calling him by her name even though she didn't have to. He brushed it off as a force of habit on her part and laid down on the high mattress before turning off the lights.
George was awakened by a clattering sound on the shelf full of books next to Serina's bed and saw that it was her phone vibrating. George groaned and pressed the dismiss button on the phone assuming Serina had had it present for her summer school wake up call. As Sedona had told him it was required that he wear the school uniform even to summer school. The white oxford that he wore was baggy and the plaid skirt that it was tucked into extended to his knees, or Serina's he supposed. Sedona was waiting outside in the driveway at departure time and he joined her glad to have the ability to drop the act he had to put on for Serina's parents. George had the biology text book, a pen a pencil and a note book on his lap and lugged it all out of the car with him when they arrived at the large school across from the one he had entered this world from. Sedona gave him the room number and quickly left him to find the room on his own seeing as she was late for her own class and his didn't start for another 15 minutes.
George wandered and wandered through the school and when it was 3 minutes to the beginning of class he was still without a clue as where to go. By the time a student from the class came to retrieve him class had been going on for ten minutes and they had already covered a great deal of chapter 1. He struggled to catch up where everyone else was breezing through except for those with lower IQs who were actually doing worse than him and complaining about it. Once the class was finished for the day, George met Sedona outside her history class and they moved past the traffic across the street to boys high school were they were to meet Sean and Conner in the student activities center. They were sitting on one of the comfy coaches lining the edge of the room and George took a vacant one, taking up the spaces meant for 2 people by lying down.
"Serina must have a big brain if she can keep up with a class like that." George said exasperated. "You wouldn't think it but when you first meet Serina you'll think she's some sort of scatter brain who doesn't worry about classes." Conner explained. "Either way she's good company." Sean said. "Anyway, you better focus, George, because you have four more weeks of that ahead of you." Sedona said. George groaned and shook his head as his face lay embedded in the cushion of the coach with Conner giving him a reassuring pat on the back.
