Part 10- Official
George's POV"Tell everyone what?" I heard someone say.
I looked up to see Angelina. I put my hand through my hair and tried to laugh, making my voice come out as a stutter.
Angelina's smile was broad, her eyes sparkling down at us. She put her hands on her hips and sighed. "Well you two? Something you need to tell me?"
"Like- like what?" Alicia asked, trying to sound calm and casual… it wasn't exactly working for her.
"Oh, like why you two were both out together and came in late that one night… why you two are all the sudden nice to each other… why you two are kissing in a pile of leaves." Angelina said smiling.
"You make it sound so trashy." Alicia commented.
I tried to laugh. "So… no need pretending we don't know what you're talking about?" I asked.
She shook her head. "No… but the others don't have a clue. To me, it sounds like big news."
Alicia jumped up. "We don't want exactly everyone knowing."
"But you were planning to tell me? And Katie?" Angelina asked, looking hurt.
Alicia sighed. "Yes… but only you two."
Angelina then turned to me. "And you couldn't keep this from your brother for too long, no?"
I shook my head.
"And anything you and your brother know about, Lee knows about, yes?" She asked again.
I shook my head yet again.
"Seeing as though this means that George would have let Fred and Lee find out, and you would have told Katie and I, then there is no need hiding it, because in fact: We all know." She said.
Alicia shrugged. "Caught me there." She said.
Angelina nodded. "I'm off to tell the news then!" She said happily.
She bounded away leaving Alicia and I very quiet.
"So… its official I guess." I said.
"What is?" Alicia asked.
I gave her a cocky grin. "Our relationship."
She laughed. "Oh its hardly one, George Weasley." She said.
She helped me up from the ground.
"You know you want me." I whispered into her ear.
I saw her shiver and then she replied, "You wish." She pushed me back into the pile of leaves.

"So what are you now? Boyfriend and girlfriend?" Lee asked, pulling a sweater over his head.
"I wouldn't go as far as calling it that yet…" I said feeling my stomach churn with nerves.
"So what are you then?" Fred asked jokingly. "Make-out partners?"
I gulped. He was right. Were we boyfriend and girlfriend?
"I have a feeling your nervous about the idea of that." Lee said.
I looked over. "What are you talking about? Nervous that I might be a boyfriend to Alicia?"
"Yes." Lee said simply. "The thought of you having a steady and adult relationship with the girl of your dreams is nerve-racking and scary."
"You should not be able to walk this earth." Fred said staring at him.
I laughed. "Lee, that's ridiculous." I said, pulling on my sweater as well. Inside, I knew he was right.
………………………
I sat down at the dinner table. Fred sat directly across from me with a smile on.
"What?" I asked as Lee sat down.
"She'll be at dinner." Fred said, mocking me.
I sighed. "Give it up."
Katie ran in jumping up and down and then giving me a half-hug.
"I knew you guys were right for each other," She mused, "Especially since she used to stare at you all the time. Oh you guys are so cute together!"
"Katie," Fred began, "you're going to make me vomit all over my food."
Angelina sat down. "What's that mean, Fred? Not mature enough for a relationship of your own?"
"Burn!" Lee said through a mouthful of food.
I didn't bother to pay attention to the rest of the conversation, because at that moment Alicia had walked through the front doors of the Great Hall, carrying a mountain-high stack of books and holding a quill in her mouth, staring down at a sheet of paper. I watched her walk down the hall. She was beautiful.
She sat down beside me and threw her books out in front of her. Lee pushed them aside to the left so that he could see her.
"What's with all of this?" He asked.
Alicia sighed. "Pile of homework." She said shortly, grabbing some food and starting to eat it quickly.
"And the reason for the rush?" Fred asked.
Alicia swallowed and scribbled something down on the paper. "I've got to finish it all tonight."
I realized I hadn't said a single thing since she got here, so I said the first thing that was on my mind.
"You look good." I said.
She smiled at me. She then looked around and noticed everyone staring so she gave me a thank-you look and said simply, "Shut it, Weasley."
I smiled. "Couldn't help noticing I was being sarcastic, Spinnet." I said, looking back down at my food.
"Couldn't expect anything more than that." Alicia quipped, chugging her pumpkin juice and then scribbling down some more words.
I looked at Fred and he was just staring at me and Alicia, as well as everyone else.
"This is the relationship at it's best?" Katie asked.
"What do you mean?" Alicia asked.
Katie smiled. "Relationship jitters. The first week you have a boyfriend, you are always so sweet and excited. Its called the relationship at it's best for some people. I sure hope this isn't its best." She said.
Alicia shrugged. "Katie, I have a lot of homework… I cant think about what your saying." She then grabbed a muffin and placed it on the top of her stack of books, grabbed them all again and said a quick 'bye', leaving out the Great Hall.
"Hogsmeade is soon." Lee said.
Angelina immediately plunged into a conversation about a new clothing shop that opened, and Fred began a usual talk about the joke-shops, while I listened intently and added in things, informing Lee about all our research.

Next chapter is going to be a bit different… it's pretty much all about Alicia's thoughts as she sorts them out. But anyways, I hope you guys will like it, and please review, I'm enjoying writing this, are you enjoying reading it?
P.s. sorry about the delay, I had a lot of things to do including a lot of play practices 'cause the performing night was about two days ago, and I won the award for 'Best Supporting Actress' (cause I wasn't a main character, the guy in the play was the main character, who I happen to fancy in and out of the play. See, my character was the girl who was in love with him, and eventually he commits suicide.) anywho, enough about that, I just thought I'd apologize for my late update. Not a usual for me, I know.
