Challenge: Are you Crazy Enough To Do It Challenge

Prompt: 584. (word) Mundane


Bold - Hermione Granger

Italics - Daphne Greengrass

Underlined - Ginny Weasley

Bold, Italics and Underlined - Luna Lovegood


I can't believe you burned down the kitchen! I was gone for five minutes and all hell breaks loose.

Sorry.

Sorry.

No need for you to apologize Luna, you aren't responsible for any of this. The only person who owes an apology is Granger.

But Ginny was-

I know, that's why she's here with me. She's getting the special treatment.

Sorry.

Anyway, now that the two of you have been separated, I do not have to worry about any unexpected fires again. You guys mix the batter and bring it over, Ginny will help me bake and decorate it at her place. Once the second layer is also done, you guys can help decorate it as well.

Can't we bake both the layers together?

Unfortunately, The Burrow's oven is only big enough to fit a single layer at a time. Mrs. Weasley usually uses magic to bake her amazing cakes, so she never had to invest in a larger oven.

Wait, mom uses magic for her cakes?!

Really, is it any wonder why Ginny can't cook?

No.

No.

Luna, not you too!

Get used to it Ginny, you probably won't be getting away from this any time soon.

Fine…

Haha…


Granger, is the batter for the first layer done? Do you want me to check up on you?

I think we're almost done. Luna did a quick taste test and said she liked it.

Good, let me know when you can bring it over. I'll pre-heat the oven so we'll be done earlier.

Alright.


Ginny, do not assume even for a second that I didn't consider that you would try to look at my sheet for gossip. I made a separate one just for today.

Aww… Did your girlfriend say something to make you warier of me?

Wow, I didn't actually think that would be true. I wonder what kind of secrets the two of you might be hiding from us.

You don't have to concern yourself with that.

I believe I have every claim to that, miss Granger; I am your best friend.

Doesn't really make a difference to me, miss Weasley; you will never be privy to such embarrassing information about me or my girlfriend.

What about me?

No Luna, you will not be privy either.

Aww…

Girls, stop it! Nobody will be looking at Hermione and I's actual message sheet. Ginny, you were supposed to mix the pineapple flavoring while I got the first layer out of the oven, are you done with that?

Ginny!

Sorry.

And you two, are you done with the second layer?

Almost done.

Good, I'll be there in a few minutes to take it, once I'm confident Ginny can apply cream onto the cake without destroying it. Meanwhile, Granger can start cleaning that mess we now call our kitchen.

Alright.

Thanks, love.

Ugh… get a room you two.

I would, but someone wants me to bake a cake for their boyfriend's birthday; and my wonderful girlfriend convinced me that I should do it.

You are so whipped.

Maybe, but then again it does make me horny when I think of-

Stop!

Daph!

Haha… You asked for it, Ginny.

I'm sure none of us want to hear any more of that on this sheet.

I would.

Luna!

You look good covered in flour. I do not think you should be embarrassed by that.

No arguments there.

Thank you.

You're welcome. *smiley*

Anyway, is it done Luna?

Yes. *smiley*


Is everything still intact there? Ginny was left alone for quite a while.

There's no reason to worry. I made sure there weren't any hot or sharp objects nearby, she's fine.

Hey! Don't treat me like a child!

What about the cake?

It's nothing magic cannot easily fix.

You were saying something, Ginny?

Anyway, I'm done here. I'll wash up and then come over to you.

Okay.


That turned out better than I expected.

Yeah… my girlfriend is an amazing cook, and so is Luna.

Thanks. *smiley*

Alright, we'll keep that cake here in the Burrow; will that be fine, Ginny?

Yeah, I'm spending the night at Harry's place; so the cake will be left untouched for the night. Come on over at around four-thirty in the evening for the party.

Sure, we'll be there Ginny.


Remind me again, why are you at the pizza place ordering take-out, instead of requesting a delivery?

Because I wanted to eat my pizza hot, and the delivery guy takes forever to reach home.

Then why didn't we just eat out?

Because I can't cuddle with you in public. Seriously Daph, it's like you've completely forgotten my priorities.

Of course not, love. It's just that we could've been doing so much more if you were here in my arms, but now we're not because you're at a pizza place a few kilometers away.

That's another reason why I didn't want to place a delivery order. We'll definitely end up having sex, I do not want to go open the door while I'm loosely holding up the sheets to save my dignity.

Then I-

I'd rather open the door myself, than let some delivery guy see you half-naked.

What if it's a delivery girl?

You're a lesbian; so that's actually worse. Now enough about this, the pizza is almost ready and I'll be home in a few minutes. This entire discussion was pointless.

Not really, I found out that you're much more worried about some girl stealing me away than some guy. Did you ever really consider that I might just have been gay for you? And that I'd just go back to be a mundane straight girl if we're no longer together.

At first, that felt like a strong possibility. But then you quickly proved to me, time and again, that you did indeed prefer the fairer sex.

When did I do that?

The most recent example, you were joking about how you noticed Pansy's 'knockers' in the Slytherin common room.

Hmm… You might be right.

Well… whatever be the case, all of this is completely hypothetical. Because whoever wants to 'steal' you from me, will have to get past me first; and I have no intention to let go of you.

Neither do I.

On another note, it seems our pizza is ready, love; set the movie up, I'll be home in a few.

Don't keep me waiting.


Granger, where are you right now?

Astoria asked me to meet her for lunch before we left for the party in the evening.

How the fuck did this happen? I swear, Tori spends more time with you than she does with me.

Just like my mother calls you every other day, even though she hasn't done something like that with me since my first year at Hogwarts.

Touché. So, is there any agenda to your meets?

Not really. She just doesn't have any magical friends left after the war ended; and you're her sister, so she cannot do any friend-like things with you. That left me as the closest, magical, non-family person who she could be friends with.

Hmm… I guess that's true.

I'll let you know if anything serious comes up.

Alright, love. Say hi to her for me.

I will.

Hey, maybe Tori and Draco can become better acquainted with the Weasley clan. Of course, not immediately, but maybe we can do that slowly like you did with me.

I'm sure they won't have too much trouble with your sister, except for probably, Ron; but Malfoy is going to be a much bigger problem.

Yeah… you're probably right.

Yeah, but we will do it, probably at an even slower pace than we did for you; and I have planned for that.

Of course you have. That's one of the many reasons why I love you.

Good.


Daph, are you ready for the party?

Yes, Granger. All I had to do was change into some jeans, that's not so hard. I even have the gift at the ready.

Good. We're going to be late, so we'll leave as soon as I'm back. Sorry about the delay, I'll explain once we get some free time.

Okay.


A/N:

Sorry this was so short. It was either going to end up this size, or incredibly huge. So I decided to split it into two and upload as separate chapters. The next one will be up soon.

I had to take a two month hiatus to focus on my job interviews. (I got the job!) Sorry about that. The silver lining is that now I'm free for my final semester. Six months of uninterrupted story writing.

Let me know what you think in a review below. I really appreciate those.
