A/N: Apparently there's more insanity. Damn penguins. Anyway, WARNINGI! *bright lights flash and siren goes "Neener neener neener!!!"* There is mild slash in this chapter. It just hints at it… don't worry, there's no details, no lemony freshness, none of that. In fact, it might not have been slash at all. But of course, anyone with hormones will see that it slightly is. But anyway the chapter isn't centered around it, and I would be very sad if you didn't read it just because of that part… but hey it's all to your discretion. I neeeeeeeeed reviews for my veins filled with radioactive rubber pants! DO NOT DENY MY VEINS! Hehe… Poor poor Fred… I really do love him, he is my soulmate (Well so is George and Orlando Bloom and Legolas… but that is soooo not the point!) and I'm doing this to him. L
Disclaimer: MINE!!! You don't believe me, do you? *sniffle, cry, wah wah*
Chapter 7: In The Beginning…
The next morning as Lilith was eating breakfast; Fred came up behind her, put his hands on her shoulders, leaned down, and whispered in her ear, "I'd much appreciate it if you didn't mention last night's events to anyone."
Lilith swung around, yelling at the top of her lungs and poking Fred in the chest with her forefinger, "Oh I bet you'd like that, wouldn't you? You'd like it if I didn't tell anyone that you tried to force yourself on me, you insufferable jerk! Well guess what! NO ONE messes with Lilith Snape and gets away with it!"
With that, she burst into tears and ran out of the Great Hall towards Gryffindor Tower.
Severus stood up and stalked over to Fred.
"Don't you ever… even… think… of touching either of my daughters ever again. One hundred and fifty points from Gryffindor!!" he shouted, lifted Fred off the ground by his shirt collar.
"Y-y-yes sir…" Fred stammered as Snape dropped him to the ground. And yes, he peed his pants.
Fred sat back down, not paying any attention to the yellow puddle on the floor, and flashed a weak grin to the other Gryffindors, trying to act as if the whole display hadn't happened.
Angelina looked over to him and said with tears in her eyes, "How could you? You said you LOVED me! Lilith was right. You are an insufferable jerk."
Angelina ran out of the hall, also heading towards Gryffindor Tower.
Just when Fred thought it was all over and he was safe, George stood up to say his piece.
"I can't believe you, Fred. Lilith and Angelina are both very nice girls. Do you understand what kind of hell you just subjected yourself to you? No? Let me lay it out for you. One, the whole Quidditch team is going to hate you for what you did to Angelina. Two, all of Gryffindor is going to hate you for what you did to both girls and for losing one hundred and fifty points from the house, before we even had any points. Three, all the Snapes are going to hate you for what you did to Lilith. And two of the Snapes are your professors! Four, albeit she is a Gryffindor, all the Slytherins will hate you because Lilith is a Snape. Five, you will never get a date again unless the girl is a Muggle from America or something. Six, Mum is going to get wind of this, and she and Dad are going to be furious. And you know what? I'm ashamed to be called your twin. I'm going to go tell Lilith and Angelina now that it is almost time for Care of Magical Creatures and apologize on your behalf for your actions. With Charlie standing for Hagrid as professor, this is sure to be a good lesson, and I don't want the girls to miss it. Oh, and Fred? Try to refrain from speaking to me in public again," George said as he stormed out of the hall. It was the most his more outgoing and exuberant twin had ever let him say at one time.
Ten minutes later, the seventh and fifth year Gryffindors and Slytherins gathered together by Hagrid's hut for their first Care of Magical Creatures class. Charlie had chosen to keep holding classes there, hoping not to change things too much.
"Some of you may know me and others may not. My name is Charlie Weasley. I was previously working with dragons in Romania. However, this year Professor Hagrid had some very pressing business to attend to and Professor Dumbledore asked me to step in. Today we are going to start a unit on sharrs. I have decided to combine the fifth and seventh year classes for this unit. You will find out why when I deem it necessary to tell you. Now, can anyone tell me anything about these magnificent creatures?" Charlie said, beginning the lesson.
Hermione, of course, began frantically waving her hand in the air.
"Yes, Hermione?" Charlie said, calling on her.
"A sharr is a light brown kitten-like animal with a pointed snout and two delicate white fluttery wings. They are only found in high, rocky places, they love sunshine, and they are very shy," Hermione explained.
Charlie then brought out one of these creatures, and everyone ooohed and ahhhed over its utter adorableness.
"This little booger's name is The Cuteness," Charlie said, as a few of the Muggle-borns snickered.
Charlie's voice droned on and on, but Rory didn't hear a single word of it. In fact, she wasn't hearing anything at all except for the pounding of her own heart. She could taste the dryness of her mouth and was suddenly aware of every nerve in her body. She had never believed in love at first sight before. But that was all before she laid eyes on the second eldest Weasley boy.
Her mouth hung open to the ground. Draco reached over and closed it for her. This was to no avail, however, because gravity kept pulling it downward again every time Draco closed it, until it all became very redundant and drool began seeping out of the corners of her mouth and down her chin.
Later that day, Draco followed Lilith into Gryffindor Tower and snuck up to the fifth year boys' dormitory. He knocked on the door and Ron Weasley answered it.
"What is it with this Weasley charm?" Draco yelled. "Rory Snape is head over heels for Charlie, Lilith Snape OBVIOUSLY likes George, even though Fred refuses to see it that way and George is just oblivious to the whole thing. Last year a VEELA fell for Bill… How come the Weasleys get all the hot chicks?!?! I should be getting those girls. I'm good-looking, I'm Slytherin, and I'm rich!"
"You really want to know how we do it?" Ron asked.
"Yes! I demand to know!" Draco replied, stamping his foot.
Ron grinned; he had been waiting for this moment for a very long time.
"Okay, but don't say you didn't ask for it," Ron said as he pulled Draco into the empty room.
Twenty minutes later Draco came stumbling out into the hallway wearing a pair of old, faded blue jeans that looked as if they had seen a few previous owners, a maroon sweater with an "R" knitted on the front, and a dazed, goofy grin. He swayed down the stairs, and collapsed on the Common Room floor.
Lee Jordan looked up from the new invention that Fred had been showing him, trying to bring him into Weasley Wizard Wheezes since George now wanted nothing to do with him. What he saw came as a bit of a shock.
Draco Malfoy was passed out on the plush maroon carpet of the Gryffindor Common Room, wearing what looked like Ron Weasley's jeans and sweater. His hair was all mussed up, whereas it was usually slicked back with way too much Sleakeasy's. His face was all flushed, his lips were swollen, and he had… bite marks… on his neck. So Lee picked Draco up, and carried him up the stairs to the fifth year boys' room.
"Um, Ron," Lee said as he opened the door and stepped in. "I think you'd better take care of your… um… toy. Give him a chocolate frog or something."
Lee then dashed out of the room, completely disturbed and disgusted.
A/N: Hehehehehe!!!! I can just SEE Draco passed out on the floor and Lee finding him. I promise you will get plot the next chapter. Oh, and the "sharr" comes from The Seven Songs of Merlin by T.A. Barron, in the Lost Years of Merlin series. They're really good books and they have a bunch of cool magical creatures in them. And I thought sharrs sounded sooooo cute! I want one! Oh and "The Cuteness" comes from Master of Disguise. For those of you who haven't seen it… it's awesome! Ok now, cookies for my lovely reviewers. (There's too few of you! I WANT MORE, DANG IT!)
kippinator: Well… I shall try to keep it PG-13. But knowing me, some language will seep out every now and then. And this fic will only be hinting at slash, which is more than I can say for some other stories I've written… hehehehe… I have a feeling I'm going to have a lot of fun writing about Lilith and Rory's antics. Although, I swear I'm going to have plot in here somewhere! If you like pranks and giving the twins a run for their money, go to my website and read Succession of the Dragon. It's about Alena Black (Sirius' little sister) and Crystalline Snape (Severus' little sister). They're War Mages. The story has no plot whatsoever… it's all just random insanity. It's rated R for language and sexual content. Slash is included. And we're still working on the site so images and stuff aren't up yet. I'm gonna shut up now!
Elfmoon87: Of course he did. Hehehehe… But even though there's a plot, things will continually get crazier in the Snape family. *Wink wink* ^_^
