Everyone had get in bed early since they knew they'd have to wake up early, but they didn't get very much sleep. Harry was lying on a cot next to Ron's bed, staring at the ceiling, then he rolled over on his side. Ron had his arms behind his head and was also staring at the ceiling. "Hey Ron." Said Harry. Ron rolled over on his side.
"Yeah?"
"You think Hermione's dad is a bit. scary?" he asked, and Ron snorted. "What's so funny?"
"Any moron can tell her dad is scary.." Ron began. "But in my eyes, he's my mom when she found out Fred and George were blowing things up." He shuddered at the sudden thought. Harry gave a laugh. He was just about to ask another question, when there was a loud explosion that shook the whole house.
"PIG! Get out. RON!" Fred screamed out his room door. Ron jumped up to lock his room door, but Fred and George beat him. They grabbed their brother in a headlock and George let go of Pig.
"He ruined out newest experiment, Ronald." He snapped. They were obviously upset since it wasn't often they called Ron by his full name. That was something that their mom did when she was mad. Ron was about to say something smart, when Mrs. Weasley, followed by everyone else that was presently in the house, came and stood in the doorway to see what was going on.
"Ronald, Fredrick, and George Weasley!" she yelled. Fred quickly let go of Ron. "The three of you, in the kitchen. NOW!" she ordered. Everyone moved as the three were marched out the room, their mom muttering things under her breath.
"Is this what ever night here is like?" asked Mrs. Granger nervously as Mrs. Weasley's yells were heard from the kitchen. Mr. Weasley nodded causally and went on his way back to bed, but didn't get far.
"AUTHUR!" she yelled and he cringed. Percy had just came out of his room, ready to yell up the stairs for his brothers to quiet down, when his mom came stomping up the stairs, the twins and Ron close behind her.
"What's going on?" he grumbled as Ginny and Hermione made their way back down. They heard Mrs. Weasley begin to scream at her sons and husband all at once. "Never mind." He said quickly, and went back to bed. AS a punishment, Mrs. Wealey dragged the four red heads down into the kitchen and faced them.
"I want you to clean my entire kitchen. Make it look brand new.. The muggle way." She told them sternly. They all stared at her with open mouths.
"Mum, no!" announced Fred. "We didn't mean to wake you."
"That's not the point. I hate that you boys want to waste your lives with a joke shop. and your father encouraging it."
"Then what am I here for?" asked Ron.
"You were a part of the noise and you knew about the project." She said. Ron scowled, then glared at the twins out the corner of his eye. "Well, get started. I'll have to get everyone back to bed now." She said, and left.
"I told you not to make any explosions if you were going to work on your projects." Said Mr. Weasley sternly to the twins.
"It s all Ron's fault." Muttered George, beginning to scrub the counter tops. Leaving bubbles all over.
"You asked to use Pig. I would have thought you were smart enough not to do anything with him around." Muttered Ron. After a while, they were no longer arguing and began to talk about things and tease each other, Fred and George beginning a bubble fight. Hermione had just entered to see the four Weasleys lying on the ground, soaking wet and sleep. She sighed and noticed they weren't too good at what they attempted o clean.
"I'm sure if I help a little, they'll be ok." She said, pulling the dish towel out of Fred's hand and began to clean up the mess they made a few other things. She had just returned to Ginny's room and was about to fall asleep when she heard Mrs. Weasley leaving her room. She later heard her talking gently to her boys and saying tat she was proud of them and would give the twins back their little experiments if they behaved for the next two weeks and got high scores on their N.E.W.T's. Hermione smiled to herself and fell asleep with a thought of how cute Ron looked when he was sleep.
