Ron poked his head through the doorway to where his bed was. On it lay Majie, beautiful as ever, sprawled out across it, her long hair spread in every direction across his pillow. He continued to look at her in the darkness for a few more moments until trotting back to the common room where his friends and siblings awaited him.
"She's fast asleep." He reported to the boys sitting on the couch.
Fred and George stood up, looking to Lee, Harry and their younger brother Ron. "We're going straight to the Slytherine common room to find Draco." Fred stated. "We're going to teach him a lesson."
"You don't think that Majie will be angry with us for taking things into our own hands do you?" Lee questioned, looking slightly worried, but determined.
"Well I'm sure she won't be thrilled that we didn't go straight to the authorities about it, but she IS a prefect and so she could have done something herself if she wanted to." George said.
"Yes, and Draco needs to learn to stay away from her, or else." Fred finished.
"Right." Lee, Harry, and Ron agreed.
The boys all headed out the portrait hole on a mission to find Draco Malfoy, none of them with a sure idea in their heads as to what exactly they were going to do to him when they did found him. They neared where they believed the Slytherine portrait hole was to find a few Slytherine girls entering, and Draco's loud voice echoing out into the hall from inside the common room.
"Excuse us," Fred and George spoke up to the girls. "Hold that portrait please."
The girls looked confusedly at the group of Gryffindor-patch-wearing boys telling them to hold the portrait.
"You're not allowed in here, go find your own common room." A snotty girl with near slits for eyes and an upturned nose spoke pointedly to the group of boys, while she stood in the doorway.
"Macey." Lee spoke, startling the girl. "Please move out of the way, we need to see someone from Slytherine this instant."
"Who?" Her expression softened a bit after Lee spoke to her.
Lee turned to Fred and spoke softly so that Macey could not hear him. "You guys go on in, I'm going to distract this one," Fred winked at Lee and waved his hand to signal the rest to follow him as he walked past Macey.
Lee leaned into the side of the wall and smiled half-wittedly at the Slytherine girl as she looked on, slightly flustered by the boys, as they walked past her.
Draco's loud voice spoke from inside the common room. "She could barely resist me, said something about how amazing I was in bed and how that Weasley creature could never compare to me-"
"Hey Draco!" Ron called in the direction of where Draco's loud voice echoed.
Draco stiffened in his seat as he watched the pile of Gryffindor boys come into the common room. He looked as if he was deciding on whether he should run and hide or scream for help, maybe even shoot a defiant comment back at them. Crabe and Goyle weren't even there at the moment to protect him. There were just 3 or 4 boys sitting around him listening to his version of what he did to Majie.
"Weasley." Draco nodded, standing up, and the other boys around him followed suite. "What the hell do you think you're doing in OUR common room." Draco said angrily. Iif it wasn't for the fact that Draco was naturally an asshole it would have taken Ron by surprise at his boldness of words after his acts earlier that day.
"Yeah, what do you think you're doing here Weasley Weasleys." One of the Slytherine boys backed up Draco.
"None of your business." Fred, George, and Harry stood behind Ron.
"We're here to see Malfoy, alone." Ron said. Draco looked around at the boys that we're with him. "So unless you want to be involved in his problems we suggest you leave us now, and Draco follow us." Ron said in a smooth, calm tone of voice that shook the normally unshaken Slytherines.
"Why should I follow-" Draco was cut off by Harry who had been quiet until then.
"NOW MALFOY!" Harry shouted. The rest of the Slytherine boys backed away slowly from Draco as he looked around him for help. He looked like he was about to run when suddenly the boys pounced on him. They grabbed hold of him and began to drag him towards the portrait hole. Draco was too frightened to scream. Macey looked at them stunned and backed away quickly. Lee saluted her, turning to follow his friends.
The group scrambled to a dark hallway not too far from the Slytherine portrait and threw Draco to the floor, hard. He gasped looking up at the boys as they circled around him.
"Don't you ever EVER touch my girlfriend AGAIN." Ron began. "You have NO idea who you are messing with-" Suddenly Draco made a grab for his wand, Ron kicked his hand and the wand flew into the air. Ron caught it, despite Draco's struggles, and snapped it in half, sparks flying in the air.
"Majie is one of our closest friends, and we know many more people would have come, but we didn't want to disgrace her by telling people that the dirty Draco Malfoy had attempted to take advantage of her" Lee spoke up, kicking Draco's leg.
"You don't own her" Draco said, spitting at them. This did it; Ron leapt on him. He punched him and beat him until his pretty pale face was nearly entirely black and blue, and his cheek was cut open, a trickle of blood running down it. Despite the stupidity of his move, Draco tried to swing his foot towards the boys. Fred, George, Lee and Harry all then began to kick him and punch him while he withered in pain. He let out several high pitched yelps of pain and was gasping for breath by the time they finally ended the beating.
"If you ever try and touch her again you will not live to see the next day." The boys looked at him bleeding and silently weeping in pain as they turned and walked away a grin on their formerly angry faces. Ron stopped suddenly, looking back at the weeping Malfoy.
"By the way Malfoy you scream like a girl." Ron narrowed his eyes at Draco. It felt good to finally beat the crap out of the thankless bastard.
The boys made their way back to the Gryffindor common room, not caring that they just left a near dead boy in the hallway. They felt powerful, almost accomplished, and at the same time a little guilty. Maybe they had taken things a little too far with what they did. They tried to shrug it off, and separated to their rooms to sleep off their guilt for the night.
Ron entered his room to find Majie hugging his pillow in her arms. He carefully slide the pillow out of it place, putting it under her head, and replaced the void in her arms with his own body. He kissed her nose and she stirred slightly before tightening her grip around his body and falling directly back asleep.
