Weasley Wizarding Wheezes and a Book
Chapter Three
Hermione woke up and wondered what she had been so confused about last night. Then she remembered. It was George. She had been so confused by his actions and his words last night. He had talked to her as if she was older maybe his age and it was the first time he had not pulled a prank on her. But, she imagined, that would be over when she went downstairs this morning. He would go back to being a prankster this morning and what they had established last night would certainly be lost. Or maybe he was playing a joke on her, pretending he had liked her. But, then again, George's enthusiasm for books and Fred's hatred of them had seemed so genuine. She groaned and rolled over to come face to face with-
"'Ello, Hermione," Ginny chirped.
"Ginny," said Hermione weakly, "How long have you been in my bed?"
"Since I heard your snoring stop."
"I do not snore!"
"Ah, yes, that may be, but you do drool."
"What's that?" came George's voice from the doorway. "Hermione snores and drools?! Ack, alas! What is this world coming to?" And without another word he pranced off downstairs singing "Bookworm snores! Bookworm drools!" in what Hermione thought was a perfect imitation of Peeves.
"So," Ginny said, "What's up with you and George?"
"I dunno!" groaned Hermione. "I mean one minute he's perfectly compatible and the other minute he's putting a Ton Tongue Toffee in your orange juice!"
"Ah," began Ginny wisely. "That's George for you. George was the twin who was more prone to mood swings, why once he would open all the closet doors to put pixies inside and then realize that it was stupid, go invent something, and come back to the pixies. Fred was the one who was more balanced; he always went through with all of his tricks."
"Ginny! You're not helping!!"
"C'mon," she said hastily changing the subject. "It's time for breakfast." They dressed and hurried downstairs to get their plates before any of the Weasley boys got their food since they seemed were capable of eating as much as Dudley, yet not gaining any weight. But, when they got there, the only Weasley boy was Ron.
"Hurry it up!" cried Mrs. Weasley. "We need to get your things from Diagon Alley." They hurried and left without a word from the twins or even an apparition pop.
Five Minutes Later
"Are they gone?" whispered Fred from the stairs. George peeked around the banister.
"Yep! C'mon, let's go." They leaped the stairs and went to eat the food Mrs. Weasley had kept out for them.
"I hate being secretive."
"What?" said Fred in mock surprise. "Is this the twin with whom I made dozens of Weasley Wizarding Wheezes and kept secret from our mum for two years?"
"Shut up! This is different. You can't get killed from any of our experiments, but you can get killed after being inducted to the Order."
"Dad was right, though. If we tell mom before we're inducted than for sure, she'll lock us up even if we are of age." George sighed.
"I guess so."
"Yeah? Well, I know so." Seeing his fidgeting brother, he sighed and said, "George, it can't be that bad. Besides we'll always have each other."
"Yeah, yeah, you're right. We'll always have each other." Fred grinned and patted him on the back.
"George, I've got great plans for getting us a home on our own! See, Angelina and Katie have an apartment together, so what if we went and roomed with-"He stopped when he saw George shaking his head profusely. "What's the matter?"
"No, no, no! I know what will happen. Alicia will move in to stay with them. Lee will move in to stay with us. You'll get with Angelina, Lee will get with Alicia, and I'll have to get with Katie."
"What's wrong with Katie?" asked Fred.
"Nothing's wrong with her, but I rather see her as a sister than as a girlfriend."
"But, George! Remember that blissful sixth year when I went with Angelina, Lee went with Alicia, and you went with Katie! It was like the chaser girls with the troublemaker boys! It was nice!"
"Nice?" George scoffed. "That was all, it was nice, it was pleasant, and it was so expected! And besides, Katie only went with me because I was a replica of YOU! I want a love more than just nice and pleasant and I want a love where I'm not overshadowed by being a prankster! I'm more than that, Fred!"
"Oh," said Fred weakly. "I didn't realize."
"You're right! You didn't realize and no one else did either!" George snapped.
"Oh and how were we supposed to realize that?! It's not exactly as if you gave off the impression you were more than a prankster if you get what I mean. It was more as if you wanted us to be one person! You acted like you wanted to go out with a chaser girl."
"Well maybe going out with a chaser girl," he said that word with such despite that Fred recoiled a little, "your whole life is what you want! Maybe you don't mind having Angelina think I'm you, but I do!" Immediately after he had said that, he wished he hadn't. "Fred, I-I'm sorry. I didn't mean-"
"Will you shut up?! I love Angelina and she loves me and we have a bond that nothing can break and she thinks you're her brother. That's the only way she sees you, George! When I fought with Ron or Perce or Bill or Charlie and you hated getting in the middle of it, she was there! She was there for me, and I was there for her when Lucius Malfoy found she was against You-know-who and escaped Askaban and came and raped her before Dumbledore pulled him off and sent him to Mad Eye Moody to decide what should become of him. I was there, George! I love her!"
"I'm sorry. Let's just forget we ever had this conversation." Fred nodded and then suddenly grinned.
"George, I was going to tell you, I set you up for a blind date!" George groaned.
"With whom? And it better not be Katie!"
"I can't tell you who or else it wouldn't be a blind date! You're supposed to meet them at the Hog's Head tomorrow at seven o clock." George groaned. "Whoa!" cried Fred. "Look at the time!" And they both dashed to gather their things and apparated off.
A/N: I'm not going to put in about how they get inducted into the order because (pick your answer) 1. It's supposed to stay mysterious 2. I have NO idea (and if you picked answer 1, you're fooling yourself)! Sorry if this was short! And thanks again to the Bee-U-tee-ful reviews.
