Chapter 14:
13. Put mosquito netting around your work area and play tropical sounds all day.
George sat peacefully on his desk in Transfiguration, listening to the soothing tropical sounds that surrounded him. He had fixed a white mosquito net around his and Fred's desk. Fred was spread out on the floor with a towel, snoozing. They had entered the class much earlier than usual so that they could set up without McGonagall around. At that moment, the said professor stormed up to the desk, her teeth clenched and her hands shaking.
"What exactly do you two think you are doing?" she forced out. George placed a finger over his lips and pointed at Fred.
"He's resting, Professor," he whispered. Her mouth thinned so much that it all but disappeared.
"I do not care if he is resting! This is a classroom! Not a holiday! Take this ridiculous thing down and turn those sounds off!"
"Hush, I'm taking a well deserved break."
Professor McGonagall looked as though she had been slapped.
"You don't deserve a break! You haven't done anything to earn one!" she shrieked. The pair had by now drawn the entire class's attention. They all watched eagerly, hoping that George would distract their teacher long enough so they wouldn't have to do anymore work.
"Do you know how hard I worked to set this net up?" George asked indignantly. "Believe me, professor, it isn't as simple as it seems."
"Why didn't you just use magic, Mr Weasley?" McGonagall asked in frustration.
"Because I…bugger!"
