A Tangled Web We Weave

Chapter 5-Never Use Anything Given To You By The Weasley Twins

A/N: Here is Chapter 6. Practically all my work has been created in the middle of French, Math and History class. Since I was really based this chapter in a school enviroment, I might as well make it in school. I do not if I'll be doing this with all my chapters though, i was just experimenting with this one. Tell me what you think of it in your reviews which inspire me to write (hint: If you want me to have my chapters longers and have them updated every week, review A LOT). Enjoy!

Oh yeah! The italiszed sentences are Angelina's writing (or supposedly her writing).

And Katie's real name is changed to Katherine Marie Bell. I am starting to suddenly dispise Katharine.


I have never realized what a terrible friend I am. I mean, Katie has liked George for ages and then overnight I start liking him a lot. Probably just because Fred is out of my reach. When I told Katie this she said, "Alicia! You're not a terrible friend!" Of course, she thinks that You-Know-Who is a lost soul who is trying to find his way.

The good thing about me liking George is that Angelina is no longer mad at me. Even though she is probably faking because she obviously cheated on Fredd with Lee. But, whatever, I don't care. It's not very fun and thrilling without her. Since both me and Katie and I are very shy, we need a confident and out-going friend. and also, because Katie is a year younger than me and isn't in any of my classes, I'll have Angelina to talk to. Especially in Potions and Defense Against the Dark Arts. Because I can think of a hundred better things to do than to listen to Snape and Umbridge. The Weasley twins could probably think up a million.

So, I was in Potions classs, writing notes to Angelina, our usual routine. It was our "rebellion against ugly, greasy-haired,boring teachers teaching the subjects that would be cool with a totally hot, goregeous, amazing teachers teaching". Of course, if he was still alive, we would ask Dumbledore to let Cedric Diggory teach all out classes. But, unfortunately, we cannot have him anymore. Our conversation went like this:

God! Snape is soooooo ugly and soooooooo boring! Why can't we have amazing, hot and intellegent teachers at this school?

Because then we would actually like our classes and the administration isn't ready for that yet.

Where is Cedric Diggory when you need him?

Yeah, I know. But, wouldn't we be staring at him during class and not learn a single thing?

Good point, Ali. So, how arethings in Alicia-land?

Good. I think that I'm starting to like George more than Fred though. He's really sweet and funny and is a great guy. I guess he has always been clouded over by my illusion that Fred was better. And the fact that Katie liked him.

Oh, so you'll actually like your boyfriend now?

Bit rich coming from you, Angelina Johnson!

What the hell are you talking about, Alicia Spinnet?

You know perfectly well what I am talking about, Angelina! I saw you snogging Lee and he was feeling you up onlya week after you broke up with Fred!

Wow, Alicia, it took you that long to figure that one out.

What are you talking about?

I've known that you've liked Fred since forever!And hewould like you to if he woke up and realized it!That was why I cheated on him! Why the fuck do you think we've been having an on-and-off relationship? I kept breaking up with him but he always came back and followed me like a little, lost, hopeless puppy! I thought that if I cheated on Lee, he would realize that he didn't have a single chance with me and he would run for comfort with you! But no, he ran for comfort at the wrong friend, and he is only Katie's second choice! I purposely snogged in the boys dormitory when I knew that George wouldn't want to be left alone with Fred and Katie! I purposely went towards out dormitory when you went to write in your bloody diary! Why didn't you tell me about your dad! I'm your best friend! Anyways, I knew that you and George would talk amohg yourselves and then figureout that telling Fred was the best thing to do! But yet again, my plan backfired and you ended up with actually liking George and like Katei, settling for second best! You Alicia Jessica Spinnet, are an insult to women everywhere! We are supposed to be head-strong and fight for what we want! Not settle for second bloody best! I am ashamed at both you and Katie!

So, you were really trying to help Katie and me get the guys we wanted?

Yes, you idiot! What kind of bitch do you think I am?

Well I jus--

And then, Snape picked up our note. While he was bending down, I took a good look at his roots and wondered, did he try washing it? Like ever? But, we knew we were busted. Snape had a reputation for reading the note out loud to the class. One time, Fred and George's older brother, Bill, was writing notes in Snape's class about how he liked this girl called Marcella Durwitz. And then he read it out loud to the class, which included Marcella. In the end, Marcella ended up going out with Bill for two months, but I didn't think me and Angelina would be so lucky. That note contained personal information. Now, the whole class will think that me, Angelina and Katie were sluts that werecheating on out boyfriends and secretly liked their twin brothers/best friends. We were screwed socially at this school. And being screwed socially isn't a good thing when you are on the Griffyndor Quidditchteam with the school's junior mouth, Ginny Weasley, who at fourteen years of age, could burn more reputations than most of the seventh years combined.

So, Snape started to read out note.

"God! Snape is soooooo ugly and soooooooo boring! Why can't we have amazing, hot and intellegent teachers at this school?Because then we would actually like our classes and the administration isn't ready for that yet," he began to read in his cold, drawling voice. Goodbye, social life and Graduation Dance date with George Weasley. "Yeah, I know, he probably called for his mummy when he wet himself. Oh yeah, that's funny! Mummy! Mummy! Little Serverie wet his beddy!" We all cracked up.

While we were laughing out bloody heads off, those of us who tried to calm down and weren't blinded by having tears in there eyes (and believe me, there were very, very few) could see light pink circles appearing on Snape's face. That was a sight we have never seen before on Snape. We saw McGonagall blush when Dumbledore came in and complimented on her teaching (which made us very suspicious over the secret lives of our teachers) but we never thought that we would ever see Snape of all teachers, blush over the seven year course of our magical education. So, yeah we were suprised.

Later when me, Angelina, Fred, George and Lee discussed our Potion class with Katie, I found out why Snape didn't read the real note I sent to Angelina. It turned out thatFred had lent Angelina a bunch of pieces of enchanted pieces of parchment when she ran out during Charms class. She staretd writing the note on those pieces of paper because she needed to get more at Hogsmeade. The bewitched parchment was one of Fred and George's invetions for their joke shop and as they found out, it was successful. To the person who lays their quill on it, they can see the real writing. But if you are an intruder, like Wetty-Pants (their new nickname for Snape if you can't tell), an embarassing secret about the intruder is revealed as we now know. It is brilliant but it cost 10 galleons for a pack. Since my dad died, me and my mom have been tight on money because she had to quit her job at the ministry totake care of Spinnet'sQuidditch Suppliesand we can't afford "extravegant items" as my mother put it when she explained our problem to me. So, we are the next thing to poor. Maybe I can seduce George to give me a pack for free. And Fred to since he apparently likes me too.

A sensation has started all over the school. It has been revealed that Snape used to cry for his mummy when he wet his pants. Of course, we have suspicions that Lee started it, but we won't hand him over to the cruel Wetty-Pants for detention. According to the twins, he makes you sort through the detention cards to keep you from getting into trouble by seeing the punishment other troublemakers have done for their crimes. Fred and George think it awfully inspiring.

I had detention twice. Since the whole thing got out all over the school, Snape's giving the whole class a detention. Me and Angelina had another detention because we were writing notes in class. We had to write "I will not pass notes containing embarassing secrets about the teacher in the Seveth Year NEWT Potions Class and make him read it front of the whole Seveth Year NEWT Potion class" two thousand times. My hand is so sore, I can hardly write in this. But, I cannot abandon my most trusted diary.But, me and Angie were lucky. Fred and George fessed up to the whole thing and both received two months worth of detention. They said that me and Angelina were passing notes on parchement that they didn't know was bewitched that they gave to Angelina when she ran out. That got them two weeks detention. When they asked Snape if he wanted some, he glared at them and gave them another six.

Fred and George haven't come back to the common roomyet. Katie's worried that Snape has done something horrible to them. Everyone knows that Fred and George know this school better than everyone else, so they definately aren't lost as anybody else might be. I think that Snape is keeping them in extra long, so I told Katie that. This is gonna be eight long weeks for her if they aren't here this late.

Fred and George came back. When they did, they gave a piece of blank parchment to Harry Potter. They whispered something to him and he laughed then nodded. I totally think that something's up between those two. Probably because there always is. I went back to an essay I had for Charms and then I felt something warm and cool at the same time on my cheek. It took me amoment to realize that George was kissing me. I could feel myself blush under the spot where he was. Hopefully he didn't notice. Katie told Fred that she was so worried about him and started to snog him. George put something in his mouth and Fred told him to take it out the window while he and Katie were taking a breath. He raced towards the window and Ron and Harry laughed when he said that he hit Malfoy. Fred kept on snogging Katie. I personally so not know what he is talking about but hopefully he didn't do anything wrong. Malfoy is in Snape's house and he would love to give them another two months detention. Luckily, they aren't on the quidditch team anymore or Angelina would go insane.

George was getting sick of having the lovebirds sitting beside us so he asked me if I wanted to leave. I said yes and we left the common room. He took me to the pitch. His broom was locked up in Umbridge's office so we both rode on mine. I felt the free Alicia come back inside me again. But, she wasn't the same as before. Somehow, she felt more mature and grown up. The free Alicia always felt like she did when she was five years old and her Daddy was still okay. Somehow, all that sorrow over the years caught up with her, as well as the joy. She couldn't outfly it anymore. The free Alicia vanished that night I was with George. Somehow, I think me wanting to be with Fred did too.

When we got back to the ground, George kissed me again, like the day that started to tangleup our little group's lovelifes. But, this time, since Fred had escaped form my heart, I wanted to kiss him back. Ifelt love for George. He had always been my friend, but now, he was more. He was the new Weasley in my heart. I kissed him even more.

I just got back in my dormitory. Everyone else is asleep. Just before I change, I look at myself. My blonde hairis messy from flying and having George hold it. My lips are red from kissing. My little bit of make-up is smuged. This is the girl I have become for George. A little while ago, this is the girl I would've liked to become for Fred. The free Alicia is gone, the in-love-wtih-Fred Alicia I have been for so long is gone, all the Alicias I have known my whole life are gone.
