Chapter 5
The Flirt
So far the only ones Jennifer had taken a liking to were the Slytherins, the Gryffindors (the girls were mostly Angelina, Parvaty and Lavender. The boys were the Weasley twins, Oliver and Harry and Ron.), the Ravenclaw boys, and the Hufflepuff boys. Hermione hadn't quite liked the fact that Jennifer had begun to hang around Harry and Ron, but she was able to put up with it…for now. It was 5:00 and classes were over. The Gryffindors were all returning to their Common Room, all chatting about one thing or another. "I cannot *wait* for the Christmas Ball!" exclaimed Lavender to Jennifer as they were entering the Common Room.
"Me either! So…who are you going with?" asked Jennifer.
"No one has asked me yet."
"Well…who do you *hope* will ask you?"
"Well…," Lavender thought for a minute, "It would be pretty cool if the captain of our Quidditch team asked me."
Jennifer laughed, "You mean Oliver? *Our* Oliver?"
Lavender was confused, "Yeah…why…you don't…like him do you?"
This set Jennifer laughing. Once she had composed herself she answered, "He's cute but, not my type. So I guess he's aaaaall yours." Jennifer walked to a nearby table and set her books down, not noticing that she had half of the Gryffindor girls right behind her waiting to talk to her.
"Hey Jen," asked Angelina, "Who are *you* going with?" All the girls began giggling.
"Well," Jennifer pretended not to want anyone to ask, "I'm not sure…"
"Oh come on! Everyone knows that Draco Malfoy is going to ask you! It's *so* obvious he likes you. Did you see what he did to you in the halls during Potions?" questioned Parvaty.
"Yeah but everyone *also* knows he's a big flirt. And even if he does ask me I might not say yes to him."
All the girls awed in amazement. "Are you crazy!" exclaimed another Gryffindor girl, Kathy, "He wants you girl! And if *I* were you I wouldn't hesitate to say yes!" At this all the girls nodded and agreed.
"Yeah well you shouldn't always say yes to the first person who asks you. You should wait incase something better comes along."
And that was how the nightly routine which was driving Hermione mad began. Every single night the girls would ask Jennifer a question about boys or their hair or their make up or something girly. It was usually about boys and they would stay up for hours talking. Hermione was amazed that they had the energy to run around during the day when she herself was falling asleep in class thanks to them. Hermione had finally had enough. One day as they were getting ready to go to dinner Hermione said to Harry, "If I have to stay up another night listening to those brainless gits talking about boys I swear I am going to go mad."
Ron laughed, "You sure you haven't *already* lost your mind?" Hermione gave him a look of pure loathe.
"Why don't *you* try staying up listening to Jennifer go on and on and on about the same thing every single night until 4:00 in the morning!" Then she stormed out of the Common Room and slammed the door.
"Actually, I would like to spend the night in the same room as Jennifer. Maybe even the same bed!" Ron and Harry both laughed.

Dinner was over and all the students returned to their Houses. "Hey Jen did you see the look Malfoy gave you during dinner? It's *so* obvious he wants you" said Parvaty to Jennifer as they all sat around the Common Room.
"Yeah Jen. All the guys want you. No matter *what* House they're in." Angelina sighed.
"Well they'll have to control their hormones because I haven't got my eye set on anyone…yet" Jennifer giggled.
Just then the door to the Common Room opened and the Weasley twins carrying a handful of detention slips. "In trouble again I see" teased Jennifer as she went over to Fred who had sat down on an armchair.
"Yup. It happens every day. We're used to it though" answered Fred in a bad boy tone. Then all the Gryffindors began going up to their dormitories to sleep. In a few minutes the Common Room was empty and the only people left in it were Jennifer, Fred, and George.
"Well a bad boy such as yourself *must* be swarming in dates for the Christmas Ball. Isn't that right?" asked Jennifer flirtatiously. George laughed.
"That bloody git hasn't had a single girl ask him yet."
"Well I can tell you that all the Gryffindor and Slytherin girls are expecting the guys to ask them. So that's probably why you two are still single" she replied.
"What ever you say. I'm going to go to sleep. Need to save my energy for more trouble making tomorrow. Night Jen, night Fred." As soon as he left, Jennifer walked up closer to Fred, filling in the two feet of space that had been between them.
"So…who are you planning on asking?" said Jennifer as she sat on the armrest of the chair Fred was in. All the guys had their eye on Jennifer, but the guys who wanted her most were Draco, Fred, and the guy no one knew wanted her or expected to want her: Oliver.
"I'm not quite sure yet. But I've got my eye on a girl" answered Fred while trying to keep his cool. But unfortunately his pants told otherwise. Jennifer was a flirt and couldn't help but lead a guy on. So she sat on his lap and began to whisper in his ear.
"Well whoever that girl is, she's very lucky you're going to ask her," then she put her arms around his neck and looked him in the eye, "You think you can maybe give me a hint of who the girl is?"
Fred began struggling to keep his cool, "Ye…yeah sure. Her name starts with a J. That's all I can say." Then he took a deep breath wishing that she would kiss him. Then she leaned in closer until their faces were merely inches apart.
"Gee…I wonder who *she* could be." Then she finally leaned in and closed the space between them. Fred started to panic and didn't realize what was happening until it was too late. She brusher her lips with his and gave him a peck. Then she pulled away. "What, isn't it me? Oops, my mistake" she said flirtatiously, knowing it *was* her he was talking about. Then she got up and walked up to the girl's dorm. Fred stood there in awe.
"I…am…such…an…IDIOT!" he cursed at himself. "I am so fucking stupid! God dammit how can I be so blind! I should have known she was gonna kiss me!" Then he went up to the boy's dorm and went to sleep. What neither of them knew though, was that Ron had been on his way to the Common Room when he caught them together.
"I cannot *wait* to tell Harry" he said as he ran up to the boy's dorm.
