Hogwarts was buzzing in anticipation in the Great hall of what would happen for the first task of the tri wizard tournament later that day.I'm telling you George he was huge, Hagrid would be able to look him in the eyes!" Fred exclaimed, throwing his arms in the air pointing at his eyes ,George looked at him like he was crazy "no way mate I think you're just a lightweight and imagined it." Fred had been telling George what had happened the night before and the scary man that was somehow related to Tilly and George just wouldn't believe him I hardly touched anything and I'm being serious !" Fred said stabbing his spoon into his oats I'm asking Tilly." "No don't!" George raced out of his seat running over to the Hufflepuff Table with fred not far behind him "OH TILLY! I have a question for you !" George said in a singsong voice sitting next to Tilly he hasn't had a good question sense he was six,don't listen to him!" Fred announced standing in between the two Tilly was smiling at them."I don't know if I have the answer but i'm listening." Tilly replied resting her head in her hands smiling at George my dear brother was telling me-''Tilly isn't that your mothers bird?" Tannis interrupted George shaking Tillys arm holding her head,Tilly looked up at the window to see her mothers bird flying sporadically at her all grace gone from last time landing quickly biting her hand"ow what's wrong?" She pulled the parchment off the birds leg that immediately left through the window "what's that about?" Fred and Tannis said in unison looking at Tilly opening the parchment and quickly reading it and gasping covering her mouth "That snitch !" And ran like a gnome was chasing her out of the great hall.Fred snatched the parchment falling from the air and reading the big messy quick handwriting that simply said "DAD KNOWS!HEL IS COMING!-C"
Fred crumpled the paper in hand and ran after Tilly out of the Great Hall spotting her black hair going around the corner "where did she go?" George asked with Tannis behind him "that way!" The three ran after her through the castle into a Hall covered with empty painting before she stopped running huffing against the wall.The twins stopped watching her before she looked up at them "I don't think that waste of a pillow will find me here." She smiled triumphantly as Tannis came huffing in "why y'all going so fast!" A horrible sound echoed through the halls and what looked like a demon with talons was flying right at them "GET DOWN!" Tilly yelled everyone dropped to the floor while Tilly just ducked down.The demon perched onto the banister of the stairs screeching at them "Hel,you old feather head You almost skewered us!" Tilly pointed at the demon with annoyance.
Looking up, Fred could see that the demon was some huge bird with tall feathers sticking up on its head that looked like it could be the size of a first year.Tilly stomped over to the bird and removed the Red envelope from its leg while it tried to bite her "Don't you try stuffing!" Hel turned their head watching as She looked at the letter with horror "just get it over with it so it doesn't explode!" Tannis said slowly getting up off the ground with the twins' help.With a huff Tilly quickly opened the envelope pushing it away from her as it floated up into the air making a mouth and a in a loud booming ragged furious man's voice Boomed "TILLUPA GUHUBBLE ARE YOU KIDDING ME!WHERE YOU THINKING OR DID YOU JUST JUMP,THERE'S SHIT AFOOR HERE AND I TOLD YOU TO BE SAFE AND YOU SNEAK OUT OF SCHOOL,UNEXCEPTABLE!" The kids were covering their ears at the booming voice, the parchment carving into the air and Hel flapping their huge wings."NOT ONLY DID YOU BREAK MY RULES THAT I MADE TO KEEP YOU SAFE YOU BROKE MY TRUST!YOU PUT YOURSELF INTO DANGER AND BROUGHT A BOY WITH YOU!-"
"who are you screaming at?" A sweet happy American accent started talking.The parchment looking at an invisible person in the air " Is that Tilly ,TILLY DEAR ITS YOUR SWEET BEAUTIFUL MOTHER WITH A QUICK QUESTION FOR YOU IS HE YOUR BOYFRIEND ?" "WHAT ARE YOU DOING?" "You don't yell at me. I'm asking my daughter a very valid question." The envelope looked back and forth at one another. George was losing it, laughing at Freds and Tillys flushed red face."DON'T ENCOURAGE HER SHE ENDANGERED HER SELF AND THIS GREEN BEAN!" Fred huffed laying back on the ground covering his eyesSHE SUPPOSED TO BE STAYING UNDER THE RADAR NOT SNEAKING UNDER FENCES!" "Oh sure mr under the radar, how are you sending a howler under the radar ?!" The sound of a door slamming open and a lot of feet running in"are you writing Tilly?" "Hi Tilly!" "Tilly I ate a bug!" "I made him eat it." young kids yelling there hellos making the howler sink and turn as the new voices entered the room the howler began ripping itself up in the air with her father exclaiming "HEL DO THE THING,TILLY NEVER AGAIN ! this is my private study,it's meant to be private!" The prices of paper fell to the ground around Tillys feet.Hel started to fly over to Tilly smacking her head with his wings before leaving with a happy sounding squaw down the halls.
Tilly rubbing her head looked over at them clearly embarrassed, " I'm gonna kill Auden." That set George off again into a fit of laughing "green bean is that you?" He pointed at Fred who looked ready to die from embarrassment "Fred I'm sorry,my mother gets very excited but at least they gave you a nickname,if they remembered your real name it would mean something worse." Tilly helped Tannis up looking over to Fred giving him a quick smile"I don't know Tilly your dad sounded really mad." Fred kicked George who was giving him a smile that told him he would not be forgetting this "that's actually his annoyed voice my dad hardly ever really gets crossed." Tilly shrugged her arms at Fred,George and Tannis who looked shocked at the news "that was annoyed !" They said looking at the parchment on the floor sizzling into dust"your name is Tillupa?".
The classes were cut short ending at lunch for the first challenge and the students changed into there casual clothes excitedly making there way to the Quidditch pitch that was turned into a colosseum of sorts.Tilly was just Finishing putting on her denim overalls looking in the mirror,She had on a funky bright colored long sleeved shirt under her baggy blue denim overalls putting on the brown jacket again.She rushed out of her dorm grabbing her scarf shutting the door behind her as she descended the stairs into the common room where her friends were waiting for her by the fire "finally your done!" Jensen exclaimed getting up "are you sure that's going to be warm enough?" Tannis asked looking at what Tilly was wearing "yes mom,come on lets get some good seats!" The group walked out of the Hufflepuff common room out to the Quidditch pitch filled with kids.
They had to go high up into the stands to find seats along the way Ollie got distracted waving and briefly talking to the people she knew,Tilly looked down into the center of the stadium where the challenge would be, Tilly could see a rocky desert Terrain"hey what do you think there doing in there?" Tilly asked a little louder than usual because she sat at the end looking at her friends Tannis and Jensen seemed to be pondering the same thing while Ollie seemed to just see the terrain."maybe it's a herbology challenge?" Jensen said as Tannis replied "maybe there dulling one another?" The two looked at each other like there answer was crazy.Tilly had a bad feeling about this challenge not only because the school letting literal children fight to death for a stupid trophy for the entertainment of adults and other students that they gave a half day schedule to watch there school mates die in but also because of Harry Potter. what would happen to him he wasn't even the useless random age the Ministry gave the thumbs up too but also apparently she head through the grapevine he hadn't even put his name in the goblet."poor kid" Tilly mumbled not realizing she had said it aloud "what did you say?" Ollie looked over at her "nothing!" "Oh come on dear, you said something, speak up!" Fred said appearing out of nowhere winking at her with his brother "yes in our quick moment of old age we lost a bit of our hearing." George spoke in an old man voice, both twins hunching over waving their invisible canes in the air with knobby knees."what do you want."
Jensen spat looking at the twins with annoyance"we want a seat ,good sir!" Exclaimed George behind Fred "yes indeed,madam are these seats open?" Fred flourished a hand at the seats next to Tilly using the same posh accent George had used "NO!Scram!" Jensen yelled, flipping them off "Jensen, be nice!" The three girls sternly looked at him ,Jensen slowly lowered his hand and looked off at the center with his head in his hand "ignore him,have a seat boys." Tilly awkwardly smiled at the boys rubbing her neck embarrassed at her friends actions.The twins both took a seat and almost just as fast Ron and other kids quickly took the seats next to them filling the row and trapping them in there spots,Fred looked over to Tilly to make some small talk but saw Jensen hiding behind Ollie flipping him off while slicing his throat staring daggers at him"I dont think your little friend likes me." Fred whispered to Tilly smirking at the boys attics,Tilly just huffed shaking her head "he really is harmless,he's just -well" She looked over at Jensen who quickly tried to seem innocent slamming his hands down and elbowing Tannis in her boob starting another bickering match between them "special." Tilly mumbled smiling back at Fred who was laughing.
To say Tilly was disgusted when the first trial was announced was an understatement,Who in their right mind saw a seventeen year old and thought that kid could steal a dragon's egg without dying.The nasty feeling was not leaving her stomach anytime soon "are you ok?" Fred asked him looking at Tilly slightly concerned, catching her off guard "uh-oh um-,"Tilly mind blanked until a gust of cold wind blew against her ears"my ears are just a bit cold." She stuttered out sucking in her lips "so this is the ship I'm sinking on." She thought to herself out of all the things she could say that's what she picked.She was brought out of her thoughts feeling something on her head,Fred had taken off his white knit hat and put it on her "here ya go champ." "Oh no fred I couldn't." Tilly tried taking it off and giving it back to Fred but he wouldn't have it "nope my hat hair has already been exposed, the world now knows my secret and I can never go back." Fred said in a mockingly gallant way running his hands through his long ginger hair to make it look more presentable "thank you for your sacrifice ,Fred. the people of the world will always remember your heroics ." Tilly replied feeling a bit guilty but she placed a hand on his shoulder wiping a fake tear from her eye "did you just make a joke?" Fred smiled down at Tilly who was about to speak but a loud terrifying roar filled the stadium as the dragon was pushed in by a worker distracting the two "there's Charlie !" Ron exclaimed pointing to a very small red dot pushing the dragon in the twins and Ron started yelling his name."Witches and Wizards the first champion to face the dragon is Hogwarts champion Cedric Diggory," the girls in the stadium started squealing and yelling his name "against the Swedish Short-Snout dragon!" The announcement ended and Cedric entered the center the squealing somehow became louder around Tilly who felt a wave of embarrassment and annoyance through her from the girl's around her reaction ,The twins seemed to find the whole experience humorous somehow.
Every champion that had gone had passed the task without injuries; it was just Harry potter left. This was the match Tilly was dreading the most of she had never met the boy but every spell that had been used in the center so far where spells a fourth year wouldn't know it just wasn't fair for him"Last but not least is Harry Potter that will be facing against our most terrible,most gruesome dragon to walk the earth the Hungarian Horntail." The dragons was pushed in the center breathing fire into the air as its roar tore through Tillys to her core,watching the Horntail grab one of the men pushing it in with its mouth tossing it into the air and smacking him across the ring with its tail "he's fine Let the game begin!",gasping Tilly exclaimed leaning over the banister "ARE YOU BLOODY MENTALLY DEFICIENT THAT I'LL KILL HIM!" Her yell was covered by the excited yells in the crowd."I've known Harry for a long time and he always has something up his sleeve,he wouldn't be him if he didn't ." Fred said to Tilly, pulling her away from the banister trying to calm her down"yeah he's survived this long why would he die now." Ollie said , "let's hope so." Tilly said watching Harry walk out of the tent the weasleys went berserk yelling and cheering his name.
The Horntail immediately shot fire at Harry making him jump out of the way behind some rocks,Harry went out in the open again only to be hit with fire and getting smacked into a rock this happened a few times the crowd each time gasping and screaming in fear This happen once again but his wand flying out of harry's hand.Tilly felt a reassuring squeeze on her hand, she didn't realize it but at some point she must have grabbed ahold of Fred's hand during the challenge.Fred gave her a reassuring smile nodding his head the cold must of been getting to him because his cheeks were starting to be dusted in pink.A broom soared through the air as Harry flew up into the air barely missing the golden egg and the blast of flames.He flew up into the air passed where Tilly and her friends were sitting the dragon trying to follow but was stopped by the chain for a moment before it snapped in half like a piece of paper chasing Potter.He flew through the teachers seating and the dragon close behind him its tail cutting in half the seating "way to go dragon!' The Twins yelled clapping.
"Fred ,George someone could be really hurt!"Tilly exclaimed looking at the destroyed teachers stadium in the distance she could see the dragon disappear behind the castle.George was looking around the air with his binoculars,the colosseum was silent very one was on edge looking at the clear blue sky it would be a perfect day if a fourteen year old wasn't being eaten by a dragon."Look!"A girl with brown fuzzy hair pointed at the sky to Potter flying to the colosseum, his broom leaving a black smoke trail behind him.People began to cheer watch him enter the stadium,His broom started to fail he rolled onto the rock that the egg was on picking it up into the air "HARRY POTTER HAS PASSED!" The announcement echoed through the scream and cheers Tilly grabbed onto Ollie jumping in excitement while the twins did a silly dance.

It was a day after the tournament and Tilly was trying to catch up on some homework outside leaning against a tree her books around her.The wind was crisp but that's what kept her wake sleep was hard to come by with the new difficulties of the Hufflepuff common room,including that Ambrosia had started to be more annoying than usual and now her annoying outbursts are now starting to go into Tillys room instead of staying only in the halls,This morning she had woken up to writing on her face "fat ass,hore,man stealer,and etc.." Tilly was late to her first hour removing all of it.Another Thrilling thing to add to this morning was the letter she got from Addy just telling her about probably the same person was sneaking around the house and no one being able to find them,Tilly released a breath rubbing her eyes think about everything."Hello Gubby,how are you today,you look absolutely radiant today ." Tilly opened her eyes jumping a bit at the twins being so close to her not even hearing them come near her "what do you want George?" Tilly asked George who looked at her offended, gasping dramatically, "How dare you assume that I would only come out here to see my nice ,smart, cleaver, beautiful-" "George." Tilly cut him off, shutting her book raising her eyebrows at him while Fred leaned on the tree next to Tilly "ok you got us we need your help."
George said sitting in front of her "we have been having a bump in one of our projects." Fred leaned over at Tilly looking a little bit embarrassed "and we know that you'll be able to figure it out!" "No pressure." They finished one another's sentences "what class is it for?" Tilly asked looking between both boys who started laughing like she had said the world's funniest joke "us doing school work!" "Oh tilly your adorable,no never!" They wiped tears from their eyes settling down and Fred picked up one of Tillys books mindlessly flipping through the pages looking at her with a smile" The project my dear has to do with the joke shop." Tilly looked at Fred fully interested"ok the thing is -" "Pomfrey Is letting people in!" Lee Jordan cut off Fred yelling from the shade of the school waving his hands.
George quickly got up and ran past Lee come on Tilly!" Fred exclaimed taking Tillys hand and dragging her behind him running as they ran to the medical wing.The big wooden door to the medical swung open to show that there was no one else but a boy with shaggy black hair sitting in a bed and some other kids.Getting closer to the group could Tilly recognized Ron hey Tilly what are you doing here?" He asked looking at his Brother and her "oh I don't know,I was talking to these two Numb skulls for one second the next I'm being dragged here." Tilly shrugged her shoulders giving Fred a small glare,the boy just smiled back at her "Well we were in the middle of a conversation and you seemed so worried about Harry here,I thought I would just bring you to see him." Fred had a cheese smile on his face watching Tillys brows come together as she blushed"you should have heard her when that dragon came out," "she was yelling just like mum would have." Fred and George said, Fred making the decision of making Tillys shoulder an armrest"Fred Weasley!This is not appropriate at all. I don't even know him," Tilly exclaimed, pointing an accusing finger at Fred and George before turning to harry with a smile "Tilly Guhubble,Hope you feel better soon,sorry about this." She turned back to the twins going back to being annoyed without hesitation "or anyone in this room besides you two and Ron,I'm going back this is so awkward and my books are still there!later Ron."Tilly finished waving goodbye to Ron as she walked away from the group
"Miss Guhubble is that you?What perfect timing, take a seat right there and I'll give you your potions." Madam Pomfrey stood out of her office pointing to the bed next to Harrys,Tillys jaw dropped and slowly shuffled back to the bed with her head down. the twins watched her sit down on the bed with a mischievous smile on their face "welcome back Gubby." Ron said the boys in the room trying to hold in there laughed and the girl with bushy brown hair walked over to Tillys bed "it's a pleasure to meet you Tilly ,Hermione Granger,Ignore them there a bit slow." Tilly shook her hand, a look of knowing flashed across her face quickly turning to Ron with a crazed smile "this is Hermione,Ron! Oh my gosh you're so pretty! I love your hair!" Tilly exclaimed ,Hermione's face turned into a shade of red at the complement behind her, the twins messed with Ron leaning against him dramatically "Thank you.It's very messy I never know what to do with it." Hermione replied brushing it with her fingers.
Tilly Smiled at her"Oh you're just perfect." The conversation between the two girls stopped as Madam Pomfreys walked out holding two bottles of liquid one had a light blue smoke emanating from the bottle the other was a bubbly purple .She handed both liquids to Tilly "have you eaten something?" Pomfrey asked Tilly who looked to the side quickly " yes ma'am." She replied, taking the bottles and Mr potter you're free to leave your arm, seems to be healing just fine." Pomfrey nodded at both of them taking the empty bottles from Tilly and promptly leaving.Tilly started getting out of bed losing her balance for a moment holding her hands out to steady herself"I'm sorry if this is too personal of a question to ask but i don't think I've seen those potions before what do you take them for?" Hermione asked looking at Tilly oddly "Oh I don't mind it was for Pain relief and migraines,I get them quite often around this time of the month ." Tilly laughed scratching her head answering the question without hesitation Hermione's eyes got wide before she nodded her head standing up"what about right now could cause all of that ?" Ron asked Tilly ,the boys agreeing with him, looking back at Tilly oh I just have really bad period pains." Tilly nonchalantly replied shrugging her shoulders patting down her skirt "eww" "gross" The boys exclaimed gagging.
The group of kids talking and laughing with one another separated into two at the fork in the hallway "bye Hermione." The girls waved goodbye as Tilly headed the other way "wait a moment Bloody Mary ,we still need your help,remember." Fred exclaimed ,walking on both sides of her. "I forgot, could you tell me again ,what you need help with." Tilly replied the boys started going on about what they needed her help on but it just sounded like static from a tv and like she was in another room she suddenly felt really tired and a bit dizzy.She never felt this way after taking the potions ,who would know all Tilly knew was that the dark void was very welcoming and coming very quickly "TILLY!"
*
The world was dark and still Tilly didn't know what happened or where she was but someone was flipping a page in a book maybe .Her head felt like shit but Ollie scratching her back was nice,Tilly tried opening her eyes or moving but nothing happened she was just still.The books page turned again Tilly had to open her eyes she needed to get up the hand scratching her back disappearing "if you stop scratching my back your a whore."Tilly mumbled her eyes still closed the masculine laugh in made her eyes pop open that's not Ollie for sure! Turning around quickly ready to punch whoever was next to her she hesitated seeing a red head laughing both hands holding onto a book sitting on her bed next to her leaning against the headboard "Fred,what are you doing!" Tilly yelled at the boy who sniffed "I'm just a whore reading one of your books while I tried waking you up,which worked by the way,you're welcome ." Fred raised the book in his hand Tillys face going red at the whore comment "what happened?" Tilly wences from a sharp pain in her head as she sat up .
Fred set the book down on the nightstand turning to look at her like he was telling a story to a child "well while George and I were trying to tell you our wonderful plan that would change the world you fainted probably from how awesome of a plan it was,but don't you worry the handsome twin caught you so nothing bad happened,to that pretty head of yours" Fred pointed to himself at the end winking at her"and I carried you down back where we started and it's been a good hour or so!" He finished Tillys face and went red "he carried me here I weigh a ton and a half!" She thought, staring at her sheets "hey are you ok you look like you're burning up." Fred put a hand on her forehead. His hands weren't soft, they were calloused and rough probably from playing Quidditch but they were gentle against her head. "you should lay down." Fred helped her lay down holding her shoulders even though she told him she didn't need his help to lay down; she could do it on her own; he refused and wouldn't have it any other way.There bickering seem to reach Madam Pomfrey who walked out looking every disappointed at Tilly "Miss Guhubble I thought we talked about healthy eating habits,when was the last time you ate?" Pomfrey tapped her foot staring deep into Tillys eyes "L-Lunch." Tilly gulped nervously smiling up at the witch "when?" Pomfrey was good; she knew Tilly too well and she learned her tricks "Tuesday." Tilly looked down scrunching her shoulders together"TUESDAY!! It's Wednesday evening! Miss Guhubble that is not at all healthy !" Pomfret exclaimed she continued on that healthy diets consist of eating food and not just drinking water,while she started making a green potion that looked like a slugs snot.
Tilly knew the drill this wasn't the first time she was in here for this,this was one of many visits but the first from the potions.Tilly was to say the least out of many things embarrassed so if that's what pomfrey wanted she got it especially with fred right there,Tilly looked over at Fred expecting the same look on his face "oh poor baby" "it's mental Illness huh" look everyone else had when they found out about this.when she looked over at fred he had a neutral expression on his face,he just stuck out his tongue at her and gave her a small smile looking back on Pomfrey who was still going on her ramble handing her the green potion to drink.It was sour ,tart and went down her throat slowly before it was empty handing back to Pomfrey who strutted back to her office.the silence in the room was loud it wasn't like Fred to be quiet the boy had a fat mouth and no filter, Tilly could feel her hands Getting clammy looking around the hospital wing" where's George, I don't think I've ever seen you two separated." Tilly quickly said looking around the room " come on Tilly just Because my brother and I spend every day together and never leaving each other sides doesn't mean that we don't have our own personal lives to live,we're individuals for goodness sake." Fred replied looking at Till like she was crazy to think that they weren't "what are you planning?" Tilly raised an eyebrow and brought her legs to her chest to rest her head on her knee looking up at the red head who knew he had been caught.
"Well he's finishing the main ingredient to the potion that I've been trying to tell you about but we keep on getting-" "Miss Guhubble your free to leave pack up your stuff and if your back in here again."Pomfrey pointed a threading finger at Tilly before walking back into her office "see what I mean!" Fred exclaimed exasperated his hands in the air his cheeks blushing as Tilly chuckles.Fred starts to put her books back in her bag as she tried to carefully make her way out of bed stumbling for a moment before Fred grabbed her arm "thank you,what are you asking about?" Tilly looked up at Fred who quickly removed his hand smiling at her and started making there way to the door,she barely reached his chest he wasn't the tallest man she knew but for school he was tall and had to look up at the boy who was carrying her bag"what I've been trying to tell you was that-" The doors to the medical Wing swing open to George with an ecstatic expression across his "It's done,your welcome and your welcome." George yelled excitedly pointing to a red Fred then Tilly holding the door open for them to exit.
"So Gubby, what do you think of our plan?' George asked Tilly who started laughing at the look on Fred's face he looked like he had sucked a lemon "she hasn't heard our plan because I keep getting interrupted!"Fred yelped "oh sorry fred why don't you explain it now,there's no one to interrupt you."George smiled back at his twin and looked down at Tilly giving her a thumbs up "Ok as I was saying-""TILLY YOUR UP!" Tannis runs up and hugs Tilly in a bone crushing hug and Is joined by Ollie and Jensen just taps her shoulder."Can't breathe!" Tilly wheezed tapping on the two girls backs,both reluctantly release her looking at her friends Ollie seem to be relaxing back to herself ,Tannis was crying wiping her face,and Jensen he was calm and collected with a small smile on his face.Behind her she could hear Freds muffled yells and George laughing their feet scuffing and squeaking,Jensen gave the twins a glare "You passed out and didn't wake up!" Tannis cried, grabbing onto both of tillys hands "oh, I'm up now and fine,dont worry about me I had a great nap."
Tilly patted her friends hands Tillys cheeks red from how embarrassed she was again at somehow being the center of attention. "I bet with all the commotion through the night." Jensen said, smirking , laughing at the disgusted faces tannis and Tilly made Ollie knowingly poking them in their sides winking."What's going on in Hufflepuff?" George asked intrigued walking up to the group Fred looked just as interested "Oh nothing much just that some of the girls in Hufflepuff need to get laid already ." Ollie replied nonchalantly, shrugging her shoulders at the twins "what?" They both looked at one another intrigued and confused "ever since the first tournament when Cedric had won a lot of girls in Hufflepuff suddenly found interest in him and won't stop talking About him."Tannis said rubbing her temples in slight annoyance "that's not even the bad part I couldn't give two shits who they wanna snog all night but," Tilly exclaimed very done with the whole ordeal looking at everyone in the group and around them before clearing it safe to say"I woke up in the middle of the night thinking somebody had broken into my dorm room,NO! One of my roommates was just moaning and groaning in HER SLEEP AND I WAS THE ONLY ONE WHO HEARD IT AND WOKE UP!"Tilly growled through her teeth brushing both hands through her hair,the group started laughing "oh poor Tilly did you have to sleep on the couch." Fred asked her in a baby voice making her roll her eyes "yes I did and on my way down the stairs I heard other girls too,C-Cedric!" Tilly moaned Cedrics name dramatically putting a hand against her head in a dramatic pose leaning against Fred's shoulder before jumping up screaming , the laughter seemed to get louder as Tilly started talking about the ordeal but Fred's face was crimson watching Tilly messing with her friends.
" see you guys later in the common room!" Tilly waved goodbye to her friends as they walked away, Jensen waving goodbye and giving the twins a glare before turning the corner with the two girls. The corridor was empty and silent, no one but the Twins and Tilly were there, Fred quickly had a moment of realization " Tilly!" He exclaimed making her jump" the plan is to make a perfume that when a girl wears it they smell nice!" Fred quickly said huffing looking proud of himself for saying uninterrupted that but Tilly just looked at him with a raised brow" isn't that's what all perfume is." Tilly said looking at Fred who looked almost like she had stabbed him in the chest George was only twisting the knife terribly trying holding back a laugh"wow fred such an eloquent explanation!" George had a wide Cheshire grin across his face poking Fred's face "GAHHHH ,do it yourself then obviously something out there doesn't want me to tell Tilly!" Fred declared stomping his foot ,leaning his body against a pillar crossing his arms ,Tilly stood next to him rubbing his shoulder.
George smiled at the two with a smug look on his face "what my brother dear forgets to mention in his moving explanation is that not only will this perfume make girls smell good but that the smell will be what the person smelling loves most making them irresistible !" George said ending with Jazz hands looking at Tilly whose head was cocked on one side her mouth and eyes were silently moving like she was talking to herself in deep thought before popping her head up smiling at the boys "that sounds cool what's the problem with it?" "Well at first we tried to make it by scratch but it kept on exploding or failing badly,but then we realized that we were missing the obvious answer! Show her George." Fred said excitedly looking at George who pulled out a bottle of pink shimmering liquid, Tilly gasped "I know it's shocking but Georgie here actually made a love potion without it going wrong,This is the key to our plan working,we just need you and boom we got it !" Fred exclaimed giving his brother a high five looking over at Tilly to see her reaction,instead of looking excited she looked mad "Tilly?" The twins said, George noticing the same thing as Fred.
"I'm not helping with this." Tilly stated before turning and walking away from the twins "wait why not!" The twins exclaimed running after her "I'm not doing anything that has to do with love potion,I don't even want to be near it." Tilly said, still walking and not looking at the boys, "But we're not going to get caught, mad eye won't know about this!" Tilly stopped unexpectedly her hands curling into fists , the boys almost bumping into her,Tilly looked mad not at the twins but just mad ,Fred couldn't tell what though "This has nothing to do with getting caught,I never want to do anything with love potion again! It's a terrible potion that makes you a puppet for terrible people!" Tilly shouted, staring daggers into the floor, "Tilly?" Fred's hand was hovering over her shoulder but thought better of it and put it to his side"where not going to use straight love potion that would make them go bonkers!" George said like that was the most obvious thing, hanging off of fred.Tilly shook her head at the boysI'm not repeating fourth year again ." She whispered ,fred could tell she was upset but he didn't know what was having this effect on her or what happened in fourth year.Taking the potion from George and shoving him off of him ,Fred slowly walked up to Tilly "I know this could go wrong in so many ways but that's why I need your help to make this work," Fred spoke in a hushed voice and held out the pink potion to her "your the third brain cell in this,I know we won't be able to figure this out without you,please help us."Fred took a deep breath watching Tilly,She just stared at the bottle.She looked up at Fred her eyes looked stressed and wide like she was thinking about a million things at once "you can hold onto the bottle and if it goes too far,we'll burn everything and forget about it,I promise." Fred told her looking into her eyes, Tilly looked back at the bottle and raised a trembling hand to the bottle quickly taking it.
Tilly looked up at Fred "I'm not messing around about this Fred anything we make until it's perfect gets tossed it can't go in the wrong persons hands." "I wouldn't have it any other way ." Fred and Tilly looked at each other before she put the bottle in her bag and started walking away Fred grabs her wrist stopping her "Meet us at the Tree after class is over tomorrow." Fred smiled at her and Tilly gave him a small smirk before she walked off down the hall and out of view.Fred didn't know what happened to Tilly but he did know who ever did this to her he hated.
