Chapter 6
Fred Weasley was a collector.
He collected chocolate frogs, he collected pictures of his dream broom (the vintage Silver Arrow), he collected pictures of Victor Krum (though he would never admit it) but above all…he collected memories.
He knew that he would never forget the day that Blaise Zambini had stormed into the Gryffindor common room (noone could figure out how he had done it) followed closely by Shane and the rest. Oh..and that Raoul guy.
Blaize' eye was twitching quite scarily when he finished with his dramatic entrance and finally turned to George.
When he finally finished interrogating George the common room was empty. Only Fred, Angelina and Lee had braved the storm. Even Katie had yelped and fled from the room half an hour ago when Zambini had attempted to transfigure George into a punching bag.
Just when things were calming down and Zambini was giving George the 'If-you-hurt-my-sister-ill-kick-your-arse' talk, in walked the biggest mistake George had ever made, Alicia Spinnet.
Alicia sauntered up to them, smiled at Zambini and said "I hope I'm not interrupting anything but could I please speak to George?"
Fred glared at her and said "sure, speak away…"
"In private" she said, smiling at George, "Please…"
Confused, George went off with her to a corner and they had been sitting there ever since. Everyone else found themselves slightly jobless and were seriously considering a game of exploding snap.
After awhile George rejoined the group and smiling sort of sheepishly he announced that he and Alicia were thinking of getting back together.
Fred nearly passed out….George going back to Alicia!
Zambini looked almost as hyper as he was. What the hell was George thinking? Alicia over Shiara! Where was there even a contest!
He listened to George explain that he wanted to date both of them for awhile and see where each relationship was going. Blah blah blah… Fred could tell that it was Alicia who put those thoughts in George's head. He recognized that stupid evil smirk anywhere. Alicia would do anything to get what she wanted.
"What about Cedric?" he asked
"Cedric and I have realized that we aren't suited for eachother, it was all a big mistake" she said smoothly, smiling at George.
"Didn't seem like such a mistake when you were eating eachother's faces at the party the other night" muttered Lee.
Fred had to agree, George was out of his mind.
He wondered how Shiara was going to react to this. Half the guys here were her friends, this was just not going to be pretty.
This was one extraordinary memory.
Shiara was furious. Pacing the room, she knew her magic was a little out of control when the bottle in Shane's hands exploded across the room.
"Whoa! Shi! Calm down! We'll work this out!" yelped Shane, clutching the shards of his bottle of butterbeer.
Angela sat down on the common room couch and pulled Shiara down next to her.
"Listen, Shi, don't get mad, get even" she said.
"How?" asked Shiara, close to tears.
"well…" drawled Draco, who had come in with Blaise, "maybe you should fight fire with fire…give him a taste of his own medicine"
"how?" asked Shiara again.
"well…maybe you should date someone else too…show him how it feels" said Draco, shrugging.
Smiling smugly over his suggestion, he finished his butterbeer and leaned back peacefully in his chair. Only then he realized that everyone else had been regarding him in a fixed manner.
"what?" he asked, suspiciously.
Shiara sent him an evil smile and said "you know, Draco…you might just have an idea".
Draco felt the beginnings of pride but was still shaken by the way they were all staring at him.
"why are you all looking at me like that? Guys? Guys? ….. YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!"
Shiara grinned at him and said "let the games begin…"
