Title: Beth is Britney
Sorry it took so long, I'm a bit stuck lately but hopefully this is ok
Dragonlet: Yeah the Great hall is like a big common room but this place is more relaxed, just kinda like a big living room
Regeane: Thanks dear. I love the radio, It's a whole new way for the girls to tell the guys off
Well here we go. Beth's two days with her irish friends. God love us all
The next Morning, Beth was all packed and ready. Her money safely secured in her pocket, Her Car shrunk and in her bag. She had the spell to enlarge it later. she was currently stood in the Entrance Hall being hugged to death by Ron
'And have a good time and enjoy your self, say hi to your friends for me' He babbled
'I will Ron, but not if you don't stop hugging me, I can't breath'
The boy pulled away and blushed
'Now don't forget we all have mobiles, you ruin a few Christmas presents there'
Beth smirked
'And you have all our numbers, so make sure you ring me, please'
'I gotta go now, Okay' She said before kissing him 'See you in a week. Love ya'
She pointed her wand at her self, muttered the word of the spell and disappeared
Ron looked at where she had stood and smiled softly 'See you in a week'
Beth popped into 'Her' Ireland at 12'o clock on a cold Thursday morning and shivered slightly. She was stood in the back parking lot of the Renvyle inn, her local pub/nightclub and second home. Pulling her new car from her pocket, she enlarged it and patted the silver Toyota silica fondly before making her way round to the front door. Pushing the door open she found it empty save the barperson of the day
'Yo Shazza' She yelled and the black haired girl screamed before turning around
'Beth' She yelled running to hug her friend before slapping her arm 'Where have you been'
'You'll never guess' Beth smirked moving to her favourite spot in the bar
'Where' Sharon pushed going in behind the bar to make Beth's habitual tea
'Hogwarts'
Sharon snorted 'Stop lying Ya muppet'
'I'm not, seriously'
'Sure, sure'
'Fine' Beth smirked taking a sip of her tea before pulling her new phone from her pocket. Dialling in the number she waited a minute before talking
'Hey babe, get the others together and take a photo in front of the school, and the get someone to take a pic of you. Send them on to me. Yes I'm fine' She sighed and listened 'Love you too'
Sharon looked at her amazed 'Who was that and where'd you get the phone'
'My boyfriend, he bought the phone for me'
'And who exactly is your boyfriend'
'You'll see'
Sharon scowled before going to serve one of the regulars who had just entered. Minutes later Beth's phone beeped and Sharon ran over. Beth opened the first picture and handed Sharon the phone
'Omigod, That's Aisling and Sarah, With Harry Potter, who's hugging Sarah and Hermione and Draco, hugging Aisling' Beth smiled grabbed the phone and opened the other picture before handing it back 'And that's Ron, oh god he's fine, never would have thought it. Is that your boyfriend'
'Yep' Beth smiled 'Here let me take a pic of you'
Sharon pulled a pose and Beth quickly snapped the pic before forwarding it to Ron
'I can't believe your in Hogwarts' Sharon gaped 'What's it like'
'It's amazing, I've met Voldemort and Lucius Malfoy, been to Diagon Alley, I'm gonna start work with Fred and George soon, at least George said he'd asked. Never trust those two'
'What house you in'
'Gryffindor' Beth smiled 'Sarah's on the house team, Ron's captain'
'Cool, cool' Sharon said practically bouncing 'Do you ever go to the pub'
Beth nodded and her phone beeped, reading the text she laughed
'What' Sharon asked 'Read it, please'
'Okay, okay "Hey babe, love the pic, say hi 2 Sharon 4 me. Tell her we'll get her over here at some stage. Harry and Draco say hi, the girls have gone 2 class. They think Sharon is well Fit 'Harry's words'. Txt back, love ya'
'Oh' Sharon giggled 'That's so sweet'
'That's so Harry'
'So' Sharon said leaning in 'Tell me all the gossip'
Three hours later and plenty of mugs of tea later Beth left the Inn and headed in the direction of Kylmore Abbey, the school Lorna, Sharon's sister went to. She was gonna pick her up and give her a surprise. When Beth finally made to too the doors of the school Lorna and several of her friends and classmate were practically running from the school
'Hey Lorna' Beth smiled rolling down her window
'Beth' Lorna gaped
'Yep' The girl winked before a new voice rang out
'Bethany Walsh'
Beth winced and Lorna dived into the car as Beth's old English Teacher approached
'Yes Mrs' She began
'Where the hell did you vanish too, a week before your exams'
'I'm in a different school now, got different exams in June'
'Do I look like I care' The teacher bellowed 'You will be sitting your exams here'
'No' Beth told her angrily 'I'll be doing them in England, with my friends and Boyfriend'
'So you left school for a boy' The teacher sneered
'No actually, found him along the way' She pulled the car into gear 'Now if you'll excuse me'
Rolling up her window again she pulled out of the parking space and turned quickly before driving off
'Love the car' Lorna smirked 'Love the way you talked to Maroney too'
'Well I do have exams in June' Beth told her
'And a boyfriend' Lorna laughed
'Yep' Beth said laughing as well 'Unbelievable as it is, I do'
'Well' Lorna asked
Beth gestured to her phone
'Open the file that's says darling. Second last one it think'
Lorna did as told and gaped
'Is that who I think that is'
'Yep'
'Oh wow, so you actually hooked Rupert Grint'
Beth spluttered 'That's Ron, the real Ron, you eejit'
'Yeah right' Lorna snorted 'And next you'll tell me your a witch'
Beth huffed and pulled the car into the side of the road. Taking her phone she flicked through the phone book, checking her watch he smiled and rang the number
'Alright buddy' She smiled
'Yes, I'm fine, tell Ron I said hi back, no I don't want you to pass him the phone. Here talk to my Friend Lorna, tell her who you are'
'Hello' Lorna said taking the phone 'So who are you'
'Yeah right, your Draco Malfoy'
'My don't call me a stupid muggle, you death-eater' Lorna snapped before hanging up
'What a prick'
'Yep, but he's a sweet heart really'
'I can't believe your really dating Ron Weasley'
'Join the club darling'
'Can we go hex Ger' Lorna asked practically bouncing
'No, We're gonna back to the inn. Sharon is waiting, maybe when I'm drunk I'll hex him'
By the time Sharon finished work at eight that night Lorna had left and Beth was quietly sipping a cider
'So' Sharon asked a gleam in her eyes 'What now'
'Now my dear, we get drunk' Beth smirked leaning over the bar
'Yeah' Kevin the bar man asked
'Two vodka and white please, and one for your self'
Kevin nodded and went to get the drinks as Beth pulled money from her pocket
'Here you go my dear'
'Thanks babe' Beth smiled handing him the money
'What's with all the cash' Sharon asked sipping her drink
'The ministry, guess they figured I'd need it. I doubt they know about my alcoholic tendencies' Beth shrugged before making a face, pulling the phone from her pocket she answered it
'Hello'
'Hey Ron, I'm in the pub with sharon'
'Haven't been home yet'
'Because I don't wanna'
'That's nice'
'Yes she was'
'I was driving'
'No I couldn't have'
'Okay love ya baby bye bye' She hung up and turned the phone off
'Peace'
'What was wrong with him' Sharon asked
'He's missing me' Beth smiled 'It's getting annoying'
'Aww, it's sweet'
Beth rolled her eyes and turned her phone back on, dialling a number she put the phone on loud speaker
#Hello# A male voice said
'Hey Draco, what you up to'
#Hey Beth, I'm in my Room doing homework, Aisling is in detention #
'Aww, poor baby'
#So what you doing#
'In the pub with Sharon'
#The cute one#
'Thanks Draco' Sharon smiled
#I'm on loud speaker, aren't I#
'Yep' Sharon laughed
#So your the one who says Bollix# You could hear Draco smile #It's nice to speak to you#
'I thought no one knew who I was'
#Weasel, Potty and Granger don't, Beth only tells me stuff like that, probably cause I'm the only one who listens, I actually have Brain cells after all#
'What has she been saying'
#All good, I assure you, she blames you for most of her drunken saturdays. And also something about a Ger#
Sharon glared at The phone, Said Ger and his friend Mike had just sat beside them
'What exactly did she say'
#To speak in Beth language, you were getting your hole, ya know good for a poke when the telly's broke. Whatever that means#
Beth was stifling her laugh and Ger was glaring at the phone
'Oh really' Sharon growled
#Don't mind her, she was very drunk when she said it, besides she also fancies him#
Beth suddenly stopped laughing
#But she also wants to kill him, is it true his ears massive#
'No, no' Beth said 'So Draco how are the others'
#Fine, Weasley is moping about whining about missing you, but still being annoying#
'Right, anyway, gotta go. Talk to you soon'
#Love ya lady#
'Love ya Dray'
Beth hung up the phone and the two girls turned to look at Ger
'Er, Hi' Beth smiled
'So you fancy me, huh' Ger smirked, obviously he had chose to forget the ear comment
'That was so last September' Beth said waving it off 'Hang on, why do I even have to explain'
She pulled out her wand and smirked
'Obliviate'
Mike and Ger blinked and Beth shoved the wand away quickly
'Hey girls' Mike smiled 'Didn't see ye there, Welcome home Beth'
Sharon smiled and patted Beth's back 'This is gonna be fun'
'Yeah welcome home Beth' Ger smiled
Beth cast a look at Sharon who smirked
'So, guys, how's the craic' Beth asked gulping down her cider, If Ron was bad, Ger was only okay when you had plenty of alcohol on you.
'Grand now' Mike told her 'Nice phone'
'Oh, a present from my boyfriend' Beth shrugged 'Just a little something'
'Boyfriend' Ger snorted 'Don't you meant latest shag'
Beth glared 'Your lucky he's not here to hear that, he's very over protective'
She gulped down her vodka and grimaced 'Sharon, I've got an urge to hire my J.C.B (When ever I drink, my friends say I hire a digger and dig myself big holes)'
'Go ahead, you can always do what you did earlier'
Beth shrugged 'Beside he's not my latest shag, Draco was'
Sharon gaped
'You and Draco'
'Yep, in an alley, he's dating Aisling, I'll be killed if he finds out, actually Draco more likely, I have Ron whipped' Beth smirked 'I was actually saying to Draco that I could probably get away with it a few more times, So many men, so little time'
'You wouldn't' Sharon gaped
'No actually, Doubt I would, Love him too much'
'But you shagged another guy' Ger pointed out
'Not only another guy his worst enemy' Beth told him 'The one guy he hates most in the world'
'Least you didn't do one of his brothers' Sharon smirked
'Fred has a girlfriend, George if only, Percy eww and I haven't met Charlie or Bill, yet'
'Fred, Bill, George, Charlie Percy. What did you say your boyfriends name was' Ger questioned
'Ron'
'And I suppose he has a sister called Ginny' Ger smirked
'Yes he does, Why' Beth asked puzzled before realising 'You've read the books'
'What are you two on about' Mike asked
'Obviously Beth has been smoking some powerful stuff, she thinks she's dating a character from Harry Potter' Ger told him
Mike looked at the girl like she was crazy
'She is' Sharon told them 'Seriously, And she's a witch'
The two lads snorted and Sharon nudged Beth. Discreetly the girl pulled out her wand, Whispering the levitation spell she focused on Ger's bottle of Bud and floated it behind the bar. Ger and Mike gaped at it for a second before pushing their bar stools away from her
'Er, can I have my drink back' Ger asked sheepishly
Beth nodded and floated the drink back to him, she noticed Mike had a tight grip on his pint. She growled suddenly as her phone rang, Hitting speakerphone she all but barked
'Yes Ron'
#Er, just wanted to say good night# The poor boy squeaked
'See what you meant about whipped' Ger snorted
#Bethany, I thought you were with Sharon, who was that and Get me off the damn speaker phone#
'That was Ger' Beth said calmly
#Him# Ron growled #Sarah told me all about him#
'Don't you trust me' Beth asked anger rising
#Beth, it's you#
'Weasley, there is most defiantly a painful curse amongst your presents when I get back'
#And a cold bed for you# Ron snapped
'And that's new is it, Mr collapse after two drinks'
#I'm not the one who had to be physically carried from the pub#
'I'm not the one who puked on Snape'
#You are such a bitch#
'Oh kiss my ring Weasley' She growled before hanging up. Smiling she pocketed the phone
'Now that's the Ron I know and love'
'Your fucking mental' Mike said shaking his head
'Hey Beth' Sharon said 'Sylvia is gonna wanna know your back and Nic'
'Oh man I completely forgot' Beth smiled
'Oh we're screwed' The two men groaned loudly
Sharon and Beth shared a look before cackling madly
The next morning Beth groaned loudly as she rolled over in her bed
'Well well' Her mother said stiffly 'Death awakens'
'What time is it' Beth croaked
'Eleven' Her mother told her 'Now care to explain where you were'
'I told you' Beth grumbled 'Hogwarts'
'I know what you told me, but seriously'
Beth sighed and climbed out of her bed. Sharon was in the spare bed head under a pillow hiding from the light. Beth made her way to the trunk she had brought and pulled out her cauldron and several ingredients as well as a little burner
'Are you on drugs' Dee asked eyeing the cauldron
'No, mother' Beth sighed as she prepared a hang over potion, Lavender had taught her before she left.
'So what are you doing'
'Hangover potion, to get rid of the drums in my head' Beth told her 'And one of the dead over there'
Sharon groaned and pulled the pillow tighter to her head. Beth finished the potion and spooned some into a cup for herself, gulping it down she grimaced before straightening 'That's better'
Getting some for Sharon she went to the girl and forced her to sit up
'Drink it and you'll be fine'
Sharon did as requested and gagged
'That is foul'
'But you feel better'
'Way better, you witches have it a lot easier then us muggles' The black haired girl smirked
'Yes, I think so too' Dee told her 'But if it means you can help around the house so be it'
'Er mom, I'm only here a week, can't exactly drop out of school' She caught her mothers look 'Again. Plus Ron is there and I'm staring to miss him'
'Aww' Sharon giggled
'Have you met his parents yet' Dee asked
'Not yet but I'm friends with his twin brothers and his sister Ginny, I'm going to The Burrow for Christmas. I've met Voldemort and Lucius Malfoy, Though'
'You met Voldemort' Sharon gasped
'Yep, and he's not half as scary as he seems'
Beth phone suddenly rang and she grabbed it and answered
'Hello'
#Omigod Beth it's true, you are home#
'Hey Kinky'
#So, tell me all the gossip#
'How about myself and Sharon come down and get you, Inn tonight after all'
#Class talk to you then#
'See ya'
Beth hung up and smiled at Sharon 'Ready to start again'
'Try stop me' Sharon smiled back
Dee shook her head and left the girls to it, your only young once after all. And it was Beth's own money
Later that day after a good breakfast Beth and Sharon made there way to Leenane to get Sylvia.
'So Noel will be there'
'Why does everyone love my old history' Beth asked
'Well for us it's the last gossip we had on you'
'Last flaming June' Beth grumbled
'So, it was the last time we saw you'
Beth pulled the car into Sylvia's drive way and stopped it 'Listen if he's in there keep it shut, unless it's to gush over how sweet, cute, funny or sexy Ron is'
'Got it, gush over Ron, sure you don't mean Draco'
Beth glared at her friend before both got out of the car.
'Beth' Sylvia roared as the neared the door
'Kinky' Beth roared back hugging the pretty eighteen year old back. 'You dyed your hair again' Beth asked grabbing the red hair
'Scooby did it' Sylvia shrugged 'Well come in, I'm just having some tea, you want some'
'Sure' Sharon smiled 'Hey Wayne'
Sylvia's nine year old brother waved distractedly as he played his gameboy
'Well go into the sitting room, I'll bring you down the cups in a minute'
The two girls went in and Beth suppressed a giggle at Sylvia's Brother Noel all but comatose on the couch. Sylvia entered and smirked
'Miss him did you'
'Not really, I mean while I was in Imperial city or what ever I had Piett and' Beth shuddered 'Xizor, And of course Ron is my boyfriend'
'What is she talking about' Sylvia asked Sharon
'She's a witch' Sharon shrugged 'It's cool'
Sylvia nodded before getting her patented 'I wanna cause trouble look' 'Show me some tricks'
Beth smiled back and pulled her wand from her jacket
'Wingardium Levisoa' She whispered pointing her wand at Noel
Sylvia cackled loudly 'Class babe'
Sharon always the more cruel of the group yelled
'Hey Noel, Wake up'
The man jerked away and looked around in shock, sitting up he bashed his head off the ceiling. The three girls laughed hard and Beth lost her concentration, causing Noel to crash to the ground with a thump
'Ye bitches' He grumbled 'What happened'
Beth was nearly doubled over laughing at him 'You flew Air Fart' She snorted
'Yeah Noel, crack a window' Sylvia smirked
He shot them all a look and sat on the couch grumpily
'I think you made him mad' Sharon whispered to Sylvia, Beth all but choked on her tea
Sylvia smiled and nodded
'Hey guys, fancy a trip to Galway' Beth suddenly asked
'No money, only for booze' Sylvia shrugged
Beth smirked and pulled out the wad of money in her pocket
'Right, Galway it is' Sylvia smiled
'I'll be back in a second' Beth told them, leaving the room.
Beth's phone rang and Sharon grabbed it
'Hello Beth's phone'
#Er, Sharon right. It's Ron#
'Oh hey Ron'
#Where is she#
'Bathroom' Sharon replied
'Oh it's the boyfriend' Sylvia laughed
#Who was that#
'Sylvia' Sharon told him
#Oh Dear God# Came from the back round
'Hey Sarah' Sharon laughed
Beth re-entered and snapped the phone up
'Hey babe'
#Hi Beth#
'Oh Ron, Hey'
#What do you mean, oh Ron#
'I just heard Hey Sarah, sorry. So hows tricks'
#Fine, fine, Just had potions# Several bursts of laughter broke out behind him
'Do I wanna know'
#Sarah charmed Snape's clothes away, He was wearing hot pink boxers# Ron laughed
Beth shuddered 'Didn't want to know'
#I had to see it#
'Okay babe. I'll talk to you later, I'm going shopping soon'
Ron made noise down the phone
#I'll ring tonight then#
'Disco tonight, I'll be very drunk'
#Tomorrow#
'After two'
#Right, love ya#
'Love ya too'
Beth hung up and sighed 'I'm never going to enjoy this holiday if he keeps ringing me'
'Well I think it's sweet that he rings you to see how your doing' Sylvia told her with a smile
'Can we head' Sharon asked
'Sure, Need a lift to work Noel' Beth asked
'I'm not getting in any shit box you own' He told her
Sylvia smiled and went to the front door to see what kind of car Beth had
'HOLY SHIT A SILICA' She yelped
Noel rushed to look before returning 'Give me five minutes'
Later that day the three girls were sat in a cafe bags piled around them.
'So what did you get them' Sylvia asked
'Draco The new limp bizkit C.D, I got Harry the two parodies, The Barry Trotter ones, Got Hermie some jokes to get Fred with, Ginny some muggle make up, Aisling and Sarah about fifty euros worth of magazines so they can get their gossip fix and I got Ron two rings'
Sharon raised her eyebrow
'What'
'There men's rings, A Celtic band, the never ending links mean eternal love and a claddagh, that's for Christmas'
'Is Beth gonna propose' Sylvia smiled
'Bagsie bridesmaid' Sharon squealed
'Yeah, after a month and a half, sure' Beth smiled
'Ya never know, ye seem very serious' Sylvia shrugged taking a drink of her hot chocolate
'Yeah so serious I did my best mate two weeks ago' Beth grumbled
'You what' Sylvia screamed drawing stares 'You slut' She hissed
'Hey she feels bad enough' Sharon warned 'Leave her alone'
'But, I thought after all the trouble that caused before, you'd have learnt your lesson' Sylvia asked
'I know, I know can we drop it'
'Well I suggest you tell him when you get back' Sharon said quietly
'And have what happen, Draco in a full body cast and me, probably worse off, sorry no'
'But you love him her loves you' Sylvia reasoned
'He has a temper' Beth told them 'Now come on, if we wanna get home we'd better get going'
That night found 'The Group' as they were known sat in a booth in the inn. As well as Beth, Sylvia and Sharon there was Lorna, Helen Gordon, Scooby, Nic Kane, Marc, Emmet and Alex. The standard drinks sat before them Three vodka and white, two beers, two bud and white, a bud, a vodka and coke and a bacardi breezer
'I'm drunk' Beth announced
'How can you tell' Sharon asked
'Ger looks good' The girl grumbled 'And twitchy leg is in action, wheres Ron when you want him, Marc, keep your hat on, it's likely I'll start jumping red heads'
'Or blondes' Sylvia smirked
'Urgh, shut up. I want a cocktail' Beth grumbled standing to go to the bar
'Hey Mike' She smiled at the bar tender 'Can I Have Sex on the beach, damn I mean a slow comfortable screw, argh, I mean do you want a blow job' She groaned 'Give me water'
Mike smirked at the girl
'Offer one no, two yes, three definitely and four wouldn't you prefer a vodka'
'Yeah yeah vodka' Beth sighed 'Double'
'You sure you wanna get that drunk'
Beth eyed him 'It's me'
'Double vodka coming up'
He returned with the drink and she handed over the money 'Get yourself on as well honey'
'Thanks love' He smiled before giving her her change
When she sat back down the others were staring at her
'What' She yelped
'Beth it's half eleven and it's dead in here, the whole pub heard your conversation with him' Nichola pointed out
Beth let out a loud groan and her head met table 'I am such an ass'
Saturday morning Beth work up to snoring in her ear
'Hmm, Ron doesn't snore' She muttered turning to look at her companion
'Ah shit' She groaned before extracting herself from the bed and getting dressed, letting herself out she practically ran home
'What's wrong with you' He mother asked
'I'm going back to school' Beth yelped
'What, why'
'I miss Ron and I can't really afford to miss classes'
'Well that's very sensible' Dee nodded 'But do you plan on returning'
'Yeah, Easter probably, we're going to Ron's for Christmas, so Easter, maybe a weekend soon, I'm not sure'
'Well dear, good luck'
Beth rang her various friends and left messages before casting the spell to send her back to Hogwarts.
Once she had talked to Dumbledore and explained her need to study she headed for Gryffindor. She found Ron curled up and the sofa near the fire asleep
'Hey Ron' She smiled shaking him
He blinked a few times before opening his eyes fully and staring at her
'Beth'
'Course' She smiled
'Oh wow, Beth I missed you so much'
'Missed you too hun, missed you too' She sighed hugging him
