Chapter Five: A Deal
"Well, did you finish your reading?" Angelina asked a nervous and pouty George.
"Erm, well, you see Ang..." George began, fumbling around for an answer. He wasn't as smooth as his twin when it came to quick answers. That's why Fred did most of the talking and George most of the thinking.
"Just answer the question. Yes or no?" Angelina cut him off, saving him the trouble of coming up with an excuse she wouldn't believe anyway.
"No." he stated.
"How many did you finish, Georgie?" Angelina sighed, although not completely surprised. It was George, anyway.
"Five and a half of them, but Fred was badgering me and..well, I didn't want to tell him about this and I had a hard time explaining why I was reading knight books..." George sighed, putting his head in his hands.
"I don't want to do this, Angie. This is stupid beyond belief." he sighed, his head and hands shaking.
"Five and a half isn't too bad, Georgie. Don't worry about it. And...well, what to do about Fred..." She was stuck. What would they do about Fred? George would be humiliated into not going through with this if Fred found out.
"How about a deal?" George said, slowly, after a few moments.
"What kind of deal?" Angelina replied, both curious and apprehensive. She stared at George and he stared back.
"I'll agree to stick with this, if you ask Fred out." he grinned at the shocked look on Angelina's face.
"What?" she asked, stupidly.
"I'll agree to stick with this, if you ask Fred out." George repeated, slower this time.
"Georgie, you're...you're crazy." Angelina replied, looking away.
"No, you are. You must think we're stupid. We've seen you drooling over my brother, and well...I've read Fred's Journal." George stated. She laughed, nervously.
"Fred keeps a journal?" her voice shook as she spoke. Her words came out carefully and softly, as if she was unsure of every word leaving her mouth. It was as clear as the sky was blue that she was trying to change the subject.
"Yeah, but no changing the subject. I know you too well for you to try that, Angie." George said, watching her as she blushed a deep crimson.
"Who's noticed?" she said, finally, resignedly.
"Well...let's see, Katie, Lee, Ali, Kori, Kaly-"
"Kaly? Come on, Georgie! Kalypso never notices anything! She wouldn't know she had a nose if it wasn't right in front of her overly large eyes!" Angelina practically shouted.
"Essie, Alaysia, Miya, Kylob, Jamie, that little first year that's always doing you evil witch's bidding...what's her name?" he continued.
"Katherine?" Angelina muttered, moodily.
"Yeah, Katherine. Let's see, who else...I reckon Harry, Hermione, Ron, and Ginny all know. And those two girls in Ron's year...Parvati Patil and Lavendar Brown, they're gossips. They must know. Umm, Trish, Sheena, Stephanie, Claire, Laura, Kelly, Erik, Cam, Ryan, Michael, and Andrew. And, well, everyone else." he finished.
"You are so lying." she said.
"Wanna bet?" she didn't reply, so he went on. "So, do we have a deal?"
"Deal." Angelina whispered after a couple minutes of deep thought.
A/N: HAHA! You gotta love it! Oh, what a tangled web we weave, eh? Fun cookies right here. I cut this chapter here, but it will continue with Georgie and Angie's Friday night meeting next chapter...DARN! I promised Spanish, didn't I? Grr...it never works the way it should...next chapter? Promise promise promise!
Vinyl Records- LMAO! I know how you feel! When I get an inspiration I just want to write and write and write so that when I've got the block, I've got chapters lined up. Lol. Writing is much more challenging than it seems. And, yes, they are taking the knight in shining armor thing literally. Yes, Angelina is crazy. Yes, it will get crazier, lol.
Angel de la Luna- YES! You just HAVE to love Georgie for trying! huggles my Georgie Writing him makes me love him even more than I did before! Lol. I'M SO SORRY! I had this written forever ago and ready to go, but forgot to put it up! Grr. Life's been hectic. I'm attempting to get Tom Felton's autograph via my friend from England and I had to wire her the money and I had to babysit(which I'm not supposed to do on weekdays) and blah de blah de blah. But, here you go! And, if I don't put Spanish in the next chapter...umm...well, I dunno but I swear I will! I couldn't fit it in here...oo, I know where I'll put it in next chapter. So it WILL be there. Hope you enjoyed this even with it's lack of Spanish :(
