But, there are four new kids, and a set of them are twins, one you'll know if you read Trouble Continued, and the third showed up in the last Chapter of Trouble continued. So read on and tell me what you think.

"I'm dying!" John lifted his head up and looked at Chris with a scowl as his friend exaggerated over the injuries from their Auror training. His dad and Harry had been taking their training to the limit and it was harsh. John was actually surprised that Jessica was actually surviving this training. At that moment, Jessica entered John's room with potions for their injuries. She rolled her eyes at Chris who was sprawled across John's bedroom floor.
"Really Chris, it's not that serious." She informed. The sandy haired boy sat up and glared at the girl in front of him.
"You're just saying that cuz Mr. Weasley and Mr. Potter are going easy on you! Let me tell you Jessica, when those death eaters come after us, they aren't going to give you special treatment because you're a girl."
"And I never said they would. Fact is, I'm further ahead of you big strong men in both intelligence and fighting skills, so John's dad has no choice BUT to give me special instructions so I don't hurt any of you." Both John and Chris stared at her in shock. John didn't know how she could be ahead of them. When they were in school, they were nearly on the same level, having fought the same battle together.
"Since when are you more advanced in magic!" John accidentally blurted out. Jessica rolled her eyes and sat at the end of John's bed, grabbing hold of Chris's arm and working on a burn.
"Simple. Ever since we graduated from Hogwarts. I took some lessons from dad since if he was to go on a mission I would be able to protect my mom and Darnel."
"That does make sense." Muttered Chris and cringed as the potion sizzled on his skin.
"Course it does." Both boys muttered. Jessica rolled her eyes. "Besides, what do you have against a female knowing how to take care of herself?" she asked. The boys were silent and Jessica grabbed John's ear and Chris's hair. "WELL!?"
"We think its great a female would want to take care of herself without the help of big strong men!" the boys announced. Jessica let both of them go and crossed her arms, glaring at the boys.
"That's what I thought." She muttered. Chris sat on the floor rubbing his scalp and muttering under his breath.
"Guess you won't be marrying or dating anytime soon." Jessica blinked and John quickly moved away from them. They argued like his Uncle Harry said his parents you to fight.
"What is that supposed to mean, Christopher?" she asked sharply. He looked at her and shrugged.
"It didn't mean anything. Its just that you're so bent on being independent that you may just forget about happiness and possibly. a descent boyfriend."
"You aren't serious are you?" asked Jessica, causing the boy to go red.
"Yeah I'm serious!" he snapped and stood up, pointing an accusing finger in her face. "You're scaring off every guy that may want to ask you out with that attitude of yours! That's why you and Marcus didn't last long." Jessica scowled up at him and stood up, though she was still shorter than him.
"How is it that I'm scaring them off when none of them have even made advances? Unless of course he's too much of a coward to make an advance and is just ranting because of it." Chris went red and continued to glare at her.
"You guys. maybe we could have a conversation where I could actually be involved?" suggested John, sitting in the corner of the room with his hand raised timidly.
"No way John. This isn't over until Chris admits something." Said Jessica, placing her hands on her hips.
"Admit something?! What is there for me to admit to?!" he ranted.
"Admit that you hate to see me with other guys and you quite possible like me for more than a friend. We aren't kids any more Chris!" yelled Jessica. John shook his head.
"Why should I admit to something that's not true." asked Chris quietly. Jessica held her breath before grabbing the boy in front of her by the front of his shirt, catching both him and John off guard when she slammed him against the wall.
"HEY! What the hell are you doing!" yelled John.
"What am I doing? There are plenty of guys out there for me to spend time with, why should I waste it all on you Finnigan?" she asked and pushed away from her. She grabbed her bag off the room floor and shoved Chris out of the way before opening the door. "I'll see you guys tomorrow." When she had left, John turned to Chris who was sitting on the room floor with his head hanging.
"How long do you think she'll be mad at you this time?" asked the Weasley boy, Chris shrugged, not looking up.
"I dunno. but you think I should have told her the truth about how I felt about her?"
"I think you should have told her first year."
