A/N: Don't you love me?? I got this done super-fast, and I think I deserve a cookie for it. (My friends from school will get that more than everyone else probably) Anyway, as mentioned, this will be from a kids point of view, Eileen Jordan's to be exact. And if you care, her full name is Eileen Lilac Jordan. She's a Gryffindor, and has blonde hair, brown eyes, and dark skin. Her best friends are Robert and William Weasley. Her parents, as you probably remember, are Lee and Katie Jordan. Yes, the former-chaser Katie Bell and the best friend of the Weasley twins and Quidditch announcer, Lee Jordan. But it's not really told FROM her POV, like " I did so and so ", just what's going on with her and her friends. Ok, on with the story! Hormones are a-ragin'! Yee-haw!

Chapter Eight -
I Wasn't Making Out With Anyone!

***************************************************

~Eileen's POV~

" That totally rocked! " Eileen said as her, Robert, and William left Defense Against the Dark Arts class.

" Seriously! " William agreed.

" What was with that Christmas at the Burrow thing though? " Robert wondered aloud. Eileen and William shrugged.

" Wanna go ask Uncle Ron? " William asked. Robert nodded and the three headed towards the Muggle Studies classroom. When they reached it, Eileen peeked in to see if he had a class. Fortunately, he didn't.

" Uncle Ron? " Robert called as they entered. Ron looked up from his desk. He smiled.

" What's up guys, Eileen? " he asked.

" We've just had Defense Against the Dark Arts. " Eileen informed him. Ron raised an eyebrow.

" How was it? " Ron asked.

" Bloody brilliant! " Robert exclaimed. Ron smiled.

" Good to hear. " he said.

" So Professor Potter said we acted just like our dads. " William explained, motioning to Robert.

" So? " Ron asked.

" And we asked him if he knew them and he said he was good friends with our whole family. Said he spent many a happy Christmas in the Burrow. " Robert continued. Ron grinned.

" So what's that all about? " Eileen questioned.

" Me, Harry, and your Aunt Hermione were best friends in our Hogwarts days. Still are. " Ron told them. Their eyes widened.

" When were you planning on telling us that you are best friends with HARRY BLOODY POTTER?!? " yelled William. Ron shrugged.

" You never asked. " They rolled their eyes in response. " I expect he'll come to the Burrow this Christmas. " Ron continued.

" Wicked! " William commented.

" You coming, as usual? " Ron asked Eileen. Eileen smiled.

" What would I do without my boys? " she smiled, putting her arms around the shoulders of Robert and William. They blushed, Eileen snorted and rolled her eyes. She removed her hold on their shoulders.

" Gits. " she muttered.

Ron laughed, " You remind me a lot of me, Harry, and Hermione. " The trio raised their eyebrows.

" And you know... " he continued, an evil glint in his eyes, " I did marry Hermione. " Robert blushed, William choked, and Eileen paled. Ron raised an eyebrow, ' Did I hit that a little too close to home? ' he wondered. Eileen gulped audibly.

" Umm...we gotta go. " she said hurriedly, " We'll talk to you later? " Ron just nodded and tried to repress a grin and stifle a laugh at the same time. The trio hurried off. There was an awkward silence between them as they walked to The Fat Lady.
' What the hell's going on? ' William thought. When they reached the portrait hole, Eileen muttered the password ('Billywig Sting'), and they went inside. Eileen quickly departed up the girls staircase, and Robert went up the boys.
' Something seriously freaked up is going on here. ' William realized. He went up the girls staircase and knocked on the door to the first year dormitories. Melody answered it.

" Hey Mel, can I come in? " William asked. She raised an eyebrow, indicating she clearly did not approve. William pouted out his bottom lip and gave her his famous puppy dog eyes. She huffed and opened the door wider, stepping aside to let him pass. Melody closed the door and went back to a table in the corner where she was doing homework. Allison was in her bed, lying on her stomach with a book open before her. She looked up when the door shut and gave a small shriek before blushing and running off to the bathroom. William gave the bathroom door a puzzled look and glanced at Melody. She gave him a knowing smirk and winked at him. He blushed and glanced at the floor, but looked up when he heard a frustrated groan come from Eileen's bed. He hesitantly went up and stood by the curtain.

" El? " William asked. Their was a sharp intake of breath, and she pulled back her curtains.

" Funny, you didn't mention a sex change to me. " Eileen said loudly. Melody sniggered in the corner.

" Ha. " William said in a clearly unamused, monotone voice. " I want to talk to you. "

" So talk. " Eileen moved over on the bed and he sat next to her.

" What was that? When we were walking back here, and in the Muggle Studies room? " he asked. Eileen shrugged.

" I dunno. " she said lamely. ' Like hell you don't ' whispered a little voice in her head. ' Shut up. ' she told it.

" I do. " William informed her. ' Please be lying, please be lying. ' Eileen silently prayed. " You like Robert. "

Eileen shut her eyes and fell back on her bed. ' Oh (she thought something that caused her mind to scold itself)! '

" So what if I do? " Eileen said finally.

" So I think he likes you too. " Eileen's eyes snapped open.

" Yeah right. I can't do anything. I don't want to ruin our friendship. And if you tell him I will kick your ass. "

" I won't tell him. " William promised, " But you should. I really think the feeling is mutual. " Then he got up and headed for the door. But once he was out the door, Eileen got up and went after him. She caught him by the arms as he was about to head down the stairs.

" What? " he asked.

" So what's with you and Allison? " Eileen asked, smirking. William blushed a deep crimson and bolted down the stairs. She laughed and went back to her room.

" He's gone. " she called in the direction of the bathroom. Allison emerged. Eileen snorted. " You've got it bad. " Allison scoffed.

" As if you're any better, we might as well start calling you Mrs. Robert Weasley by now. "

" She's got a point. " Melody commented from her corner. Eileen sighed.

" Am I that obvious? " she asked glumly.

" Not to everyone else, but to your friends. " Allison assured her.

" Damn it. What am I going to do? " Eileen groaned.

" Jump him? " Allison suggested. Melody laughed.

" Sod off! " Eileen sighed, " Why don't you jump William? "

" I've never met him all alone in a dark alley? " Allison admitted. Eileen looked at her in horror. Melody put down her quill and went to sit on Suzette's bed, across from Allison's (where Allison and Eileen were currently seated).

" Allison, truth or dare? " Melody asked. Allison rolled her eyes, but she was no coward.

" Dare. " she said firmly.

" I'm going to own William and tell him to come over here. " Melody explained, " And when he knocks on the door, open it, and kiss him full on the lips. Then you can just slam the door in his face if you want. " Allison paled, but nodded. Melody grinned at Eileen, then hopped up and scribbled a note on some parchment, then sent it off with her owl, Olympia. Then they waited.

Quite suddenly, there was a knock on the door. Allison gave a small scream and Eileen snorted loudly. Melody just grinned and pointed to the door. Allison gulped audibly, and got up slowly. She walked shakily to the door and grasped the handle. She took a deep, determined breath, and whipped open the door. There stood William, his hand poised to knock once more. She grabbed him by the collar and pulled him towards her. His gasp was masked by her mouth, kissing him, hard. He closed his eyes and grabbed her around the waist, falling back into the hall. They went on rolling around for a good five minutes before Allison pulled away, apparently needing air. She rolled off him and laid beside him. Eileen and Melody were having laughing, coughing fits on their beds. William and Allison got up.

" Umm...I gotta go. " William mumbled. He kissed her briefly before bolting down the stairs once more. Allison stumbled back, shutting the door. She sat slowly on her bed, a dreamy smile plastered on her face.

" I said to kiss him, not molest him. " Melody said. Eileen stifled a laugh.

" He's a great kisser. " Allison announced, the goofy smile still adorning her face.

" Eeew! " Eileen responded, " He's my best friend! "

" He's my cousin! " said Melody, sounding equally disgusted.

" That doesn't change the fact! " Allison replied.

" I bet Robert's better. " Eileen blurted out, slapping her hand over her mouth soon after.

" Bet Matt's even better. " Melody said dreamily, her eyes widening and darting frantically around the room. She groaned, " I have to stop saying my thoughts out loud. "

" So we're all hopelessly in love? " Eileen sighed, " Well, I think Allison definitely has prospects. "

~In the first year boys dormitories~

Robert and Nathan looked up as William walked slowly into the dormitory, his eyes alight, and dark pink lipstick smudged from his neck to his lips to his left ear. Robert and Nathan looked each other. William came slowly over and sat on his bed, laying back and closing his eyes.

" Did we miss something? " Robert asked, eyeing the lipstick smudges. William's eyes snapped open.

" I wasn't making out with anyone. " he blurted out, slapping his hand over his mouth and groaning. Robert smiled and Nathan kept his normal blank expression.

" Who was it? " Robert asked.

" It was the freakiest and best thing that's ever happened to me! " William said, " I went over to their dorm after I got that owl from Melody, you know? " Nathan and Robert nodded, so he continued, " So I go over their and I'm about to knock again, when Allison whips open the door, grabs me by the collar, and totally jumps me! We were rolling in the girls hallway five bloody minutes! "

" How was it? " Robert grinned.

" She's a great kisser. " William admitted.

" I'll bet Eileen's better. " Robert blurted out, clapping his hand over his mouth and groaning. William just rolled his eyes. Nathan got a weird look on his face.

" Bet Suzette's even better. " Nathan said dreamily, his eyes widening after realizing what he'd just said. He turned scarlet and buried his head in his pillow.

" Straight arrow, never-has-naughty-thought-in-his-proper-little-head Nathan Weasley is dreaming about KISSING Suzette Longbottom? " Robert pretended to looked shocked. Nathan sat up suddenly.

" If you tell anyone, I'll bloody well kick your arses! " They just smirked knowingly. Nathan rolled his eyes, " I have got to stop saying my thoughts out loud. " he moaned.
