Hey, I have nothing real important so ramble about so I'm just going to give out the chapter!
Tuesday 21st In the Hallway.
I left the Common Room. It was getting too insane. Fred and George's little brother, Ron, and Hermione Granger keep fighting over a bloody cat and a rat. I mean really who cares if the cat ate the rat? Personally, I think it would make Ron's life a heck of a lot better if he just tossed the damn thing out the window. You can never trust evil wizards now a days. The rat might be on the imperious curse or something! It might stuff itself down Ron's throat and suffocate him!
Should I tell Fred and George about my theory?
Katie has a theory?
Katie dose have a theory.
It's Alicia if you didn't know.
But how could you, Mr. Notebook, how could you know?
Katie, maybe I should take Mr. Notebook, and keep him for a few days. You seem to be getting a little bit attached
I am not!
You named it!
You're mum named you!
Actually it was my dad.
But do you see me point?
Oh, the frustration kicks in.
No, I don't see your point. And I'm not stupid. You're getting frustrated. I can read, Katie, if you didn't remember.
Well you weren't supposed to see that. You're SUPPOSED to read around it.
…
Okay, so she got up and moved over next to George. Hmm, I should be doing my Transfiguration Essay, shouldn't I? But I've got all of break to do it! Why waste valuable messing around time by doing an essay?
"George! What are you doing?" Alicia shouted. I had to look up. I mean if you hear Alicia shout and then a huge clang then you know exactly what is going on if it involves the twins.
But if it doesn't then that means you've just got hit with something metal, courtesy of out feisty friend Alicia.
So, anyway, I look up and I see Fred and George having a sword fight, each of them in their own suit of armor. And then there's Peeves, who's commenting about it all. I think the twins are the only ones in the whole school who have the same view in life as Peeves…
Anyway, about Peeves' commenting, it's making Lee a little on the edgy side. Who knew he was so controlling?
"It's Weasel against Weasel, which rat is going to win?" Peeves was saying.
The twins glared up through their helmets and I chucked my shoe at him, wanting him to leave. If you insult my friends, I take off my shoes. That's the only reasonable way to solve things.
Okay, I guess there's more then that but that's besides the point.
Peeves actually leaves, buuuuuuuuut he takes my shoe with him, the bloody poltergeist!
George fake stabbed Fred and Fred fell to the ground, wheezing.
I laughed at that and I shivered. Stupid foot. Now it's cold. At least I'm wearing socks. But really, Hogwarts hallways are always cold. It drives me crazy. And in the dungeons! You can practically see your breath! It's insane!
"Guys, my foot is cold!" I complained.
"You shouldn't have thrown it at Peeves, then," Alicia said coolly. What? She's still ticked off about that? Wow, she must not be very happy at the moment. Duh, Katie.
Hey, a shadow just fell over my head. And a smaller one fell over Lee's.
"Team," came the voice of Mr. Quidditch Captain, Oliver Wood. "Come on, practice."
The smaller shadow was Harry, in case you were wondering.
Wait! Did he say practice? Now? I HAVE NO SHOE!
We were all moaning and groaning and not getting up off the floor. I mean, come on! What kind of freak captain man gives us practice over break? I should punch him.
"Ow. Bell, when we get out there, you're doing an extra lap," Wood said. I didn't punch him. I was too lazy to stand up. So I swung my leg over and kicked him in the shin. And he glared at me and said that. You know, before Quidditch season he was so nice and he wouldn't harass us. Sometimes he would even compliment us. I know! It's shocking, isn't it? But now he won't talk to us unless it's to inform us that there's a practice or that we shouldn't eat chocolate because it will kill us and then he won't have his Dream Team any more. We are pretty good, though, if I do say so myself.
Harry looked all ready to go find the snitch in… wait. It's SNOWING! It's like a freaking blizzard out there!
"Oliver, what the hell is your problem? It's a freaking blizzard out there!" Angelina said, basically saying my thoughts out loud. Creepy.
"Exactly, we hardly get to practice in this weather," he said, looking determined. "What happens if it's like this during a game?"
"Like you said," I said, now standing, "we hardly ever get this weather."
I was going to hit him in the head but I didn't want to face another lap. I swear, the man's like a rock. He never cracks.
"Come on, everyone up," Oliver said, picking the twins up by the collars of their robes. Such a demanding captain. And to think, I actually got him something for Christmas.
Okay, so it was just a book called Ease Up On the Team but that's besides the point! And so maybe I did leave a little side note in the cover that said something along the lines of Hey, hey Oliver! Read this, memorize it, live it. And then when you become Captain for Puddlemore then just forget about it because they need some work.
Okay, well I didn't put the 'they need some work' thing in there because Oliver loves that team and he'd make me run laps for weeks.
My point was that I got him something and he should at least be nice to me. But then again he doesn't know I got it for him. Gah, stupid brain.
Anyway, he basically dragged all seven of us (Lee came too… I think he was just bored, I have no idea what he's going to do anyway…) out onto the pitch. Well, more so to the locker rooms. Angelina tried to reason with him… it didn't work. She now has to run an extra lap with me.
Yes, he makes us run laps. In the snow. We don't even need leg strength! Well, I suppose to kick off from the ground we do… but that's besides the point. Not to mention we have to run in three feet of snow! Bloody Mr. Quidditch Captain!
It took us a while to get down to the pitch, though. I still didn't have my shoe because the bloody poltergeist decided to light it on fire. Yeah, we saw him on the way down there. I made Lee give me a piggy back. But anyway, we saw Peeves on the way down there and he was crackling like mad and lit my shoe on fire! Then he dropped it in front of us and pranced away.
I jumped off of Lee's back and went to grab the shoe but about five hands caught me around my waist. Two were Lee's, two were George's, and one was Angelina's. Well, she actually grabbed the back of my shirt. Eh, close enough!
Apparently my friends love me enough to stop me from catching myself on fire. Go them!
Alicia extinguished it with her wand (and I thought she would have let it burn…) and George picked up the soggy, burnt remains of my shoe.
Well, I'm not putting that thing back on. My foot will freeze. Oliver and Harry both gave me a weird look.
"Bloody poltergeist," I muttered. The both got knowing looks on their faces. And I could see them trying not to laugh. That's just… okay, I can see the humor in this.
Oh fudge! Not the minister… But Oh fudge! I didn't get Harry a gift. Gah! I'll have to send away for something. How about that … uh… I'll get him… socks! No, who wants socks? I mean, yeah, they're nice when you don't have on shoes and all… but … gah.
What about a shamrock pin thing for Ireland. It'd go good with his eyes…
Anyway, I was still half shoeless so I made Lee give me a piggy back ride all the way down to the lockers. I think I might have tennis shoes in there somewhere. Well, I must have some in there. And if not, then… well I'm screwed because I'm not going to run laps barefoot!
Running Laps (is NOT fun when we should be flying!)
He's making all of us run five laps. And Angelina and me have to do six for physical abuse and mouthing off. Psh, I'm so going to kick his butt again. Well, for the fist time. The second time I kicked his shin….
So me and Ang are on our last lap. And we're pretty much dying. It's freezing cold, one of my shoe's is too big (I borrowed it from Fred) and we have to run in three feet of snow.
I know, I know. I'm supposed to be the super awesome, never gives up, will kick your butt if I had to Quidditch player. But I'm really cold!
Not to mention the twins and Lee are laughing it up from the stands. Which I bet are warm. (We made Oliver heat up SOMETHING on the pitch. Go figure, he makes it the stands… Gah.)
Once me and Angelina were done, our pants were soaked up to our knees and we were shaking like crazy. Seriously! I thought my arms would fall off and my teeth would fall out because they were all chattery and what not.
That night, in my dorm, all nice and warm and warm in my bed!I'm going to kill Oliver the dictator Wood. I'm surprised we're still alive, let alone not sick! I swear, if I'm sick over the entire break I'm going kick some Wood ass! (a/n: Being sick over break is not fun by the way.)
He made us fly, in a blizzard, around the pitch ten times in under a minute. Do you know how hard that is when the winds are against you? It's pretty damn hard, my friend.
Then, he made me, Angelina, and Alicia do all these pointless drills. I swear one of them was to avoid a crazy monkey on steroids. But then again it was hard to hear through the wind and all.
Christmas EveMost of the presents are wrapped. I've just got Oliver's and Lee's left. I already sent Harry's up to his room with this cool hippie house elf I found cleaning. He was so cool. Looked slightly drunk, though.
Leanne's passed out on her bed. She's exhausted. It's only eleven but we've been up to a lot today. I had to help her and Debbie sneak into Hogsmade because they both forgot to get something for their parents. We were there until three in the afternoon.
Then I had to wrestle the twins so they wouldn't go upstairs. They both wanted to see what I got them. Oh, I forgot to add that while we were in Hogsmade I bought them all Honeydukes. Man, I went all out this year. They'd better appreciate it.
But anyway, it took threatening to chop of their hair to get them to stop because they know I'd do that. Okay, well not really because I like their hair long. But that's besides the point again.
After the twins came Lee's begging. He was on a bended knee. A little first year came up and asked if I was getting proposed to. They're so naïve.
Then I had to listen to Alicia giggle about what she thinks George got her. Angelina, thank Merlin, smacked her with a pillow before we had to listen to her for more then an hour.
Then we had to eat dinner. I hadn't eaten all day and everyone was bugging everyone about what they got each other. I know! Chaos!
Eventually, I had to sneak upstairs and away from our pirate gang to go and wrap their presents. I know, it's not safe to leave them unwrapped for this long because someone's bound to search. But I didn't care. I have a very busy life.
Not to mention the guilt trip my mum sent me.
Dear Katherine, Yeah, my full name. I haven't used it in a while. I almost forgot what it was. Ha!
It's such a shame that you won't be here for Christmas. You're father and I are so upset that you're not coming. Our two oldest children don't want to spend time with us. At least we have the others.
Well, I hope you have a very enjoyable Christmas away from your family this year. We send you our love.
Love,
Mum and Dad
See what I'm saying about the guilty trip! I mean, come on! The first paragraph alone is enough to make someone feel bad. She'd better like the necklace I got her. Otherwise my summer is really going to suck.
So, after writing back to my parents and explaining to Lee the brother situation, I snuck upstairs.
But, before all of that, we all had a snowball war. It was girls against guys, which was a pretty unfair advantage seeing as all of the girls were chasers. I mean, yeah, Fred and George could deflect the snow with their arms but we can whip it at their heads. Ah, the goodness of Quidditch skills.
So we basically killed the boys. I think we even left a few bruises. I nailed Lee right in the eye and George in the ear. There were many more then that but those I'm pretty sure left marks. But Angelina's was the best. She got Fred right in the forehead. He literally did a back flip behind their 'fort' and landed right in fresh powder. Which was pretty awesome because the snow went up in a poof and slowly fell back down. That was rather amusing.
And now it's eleven thirty and I need to sleep because the twins like to wake people up early on Christmas and if you don't get up then there is cold and white washes in your future.
Christmas NightToday was so awesome. I was banned from bringing my notebook with me, and boy am I glad. Mr. Notebook would have gotten completely ruined if I had brought him. I swear, it was insane.
Well, first off, it seemed that the twins set their alarms for four thirty. And there was no way in hell that I was going to get up at four thirty. They came marching proudly into my room. And it was me first because I'm younger and my dorm room is on a lower level then Angelina's and Alicia's. Those lucky leprechauns,
So they came in. It went something like this:
"KATIE YOU LAZY BUG GET UP AND LETS GO!" George shouter. Why Lee wasn't with them, I may never know but the lucky dog must be still sleeping. Gah.
"Noooo," I moaned into my pillow, snuggling more into my blankets. They won't win because I'm a tired girl with a good arm. Even though I think those two cancel each other out… Oh well.
"Yes!" Fred shouted, taking my pillow off of my head.
"Fred, it's Christmas. People like to sleep in on Christmas!" I protested, putting some blanket under my head. Warm. Yum.
I glanced up and saw George raising his eyebrow at Fred. Yeah, yeah, I know. I should be excited to get up, get presents, and fool around all day but noooo.
"No they don't, Katie," George said, pulling away my nice warm fluffy huge blanket. They are so going to pay when we're in breakfast or something like that. "Grab her feet Fred."
WHAT?
And Fred grabbed my feet and George grabbed my arms and they carried me in my gray pajama bottoms and my big blue top down to the Common Room where they tossed me on the couch. I landed on something. Well, someone.
"Hello there, Katie," Lee said from underneath me.
"Sorry Lee!" I said, jumping up.
"Nah, it's alright. I was just sleeping," Lee said with a yawn. I don't blame him. It was only quarter to five in the morning. I need friends that sleep in.
"You and just about everyone else in this bloody castle," I complained, leaning on his shoulder. So tired. Not fair.
After about a minute of silence we heard, "I'M NOT GETTING UP AT THIS HOUR IN THE MORNING FRED WEASLEY!" And then we heard a thud.
That would be dear, sweet, lovable Angelina. Let's just say she's not a morning person. And I'm pretty sure she kicked Fred.
"George Weasley, if you don't give me back my blanket I'm going to throw you out the window," Angelina again. I wonder how Alicia's doing…
"Wow, Angelina sure puts up a fight," Lee commented, staring into the stairwell.
"Tell me about it," I said, thinking back. "There was this one time when Oliver decided to wake everyone up at two in the morning for Quidditch practice. It's a good thing he had his broom because she shoved him out the window."
"Did she really?" Lee asked, looking at me with a raised eyebrow.
"Well, ish. She pushed him and he was halfway out the window before the twins caught him. But, I guess that's what you get when you decide on two in the morning Quidditch practices." I shrugged. That was a very chaotic morning.
Alicia walked down the stairs with a blanket in hand. LUCKY!
"Mornin' guys," she said with a yawn, sitting next to me on the couch. Thank God. I wonder if she'll share.
"Morning," I said, looking at her blanket. Boy does she look tired. "The twins wake you up too?"
"Dumb question, Katie," Lee said.
"Well, no they went for Angelina first," Alicia explained. "And she basically woke up everyone else in out dorm so I just decided to leave. But the last thing I saw was Angelina yelling at the twins about leeches in their pants or something."
"She is good at threats," I said thoughtfully as Lee cringed. Ha, leeches in pants. That could have been plan E or something like that.
"ACCIO BLANKET!" we heard from upstairs. And then another crash.
This went on for several more minutes before she surrendered and came downstairs with two satisfied redheads behind her. She grumbled and grumbled and sat next to Alicia. I feel so blanketless.
"Accio blanket," I said, summoning my nice warm blanket. It flew towards me and then landed over my head. Sleep. Finally. Lee gave me a jealous look. "Would you like some blanket too, Lee?" I asked with a grin.
He took it gratefully and the four of us sat there glaring at the twins.
Present Time This was very, very messy. We each did one at a time and made the twins go first because at the moment we didn't really care. But, Fred and George looked ecstatic.For some odd reason, they opened mine first… which was at the bottom of their fairly big pile. Maybe it was the wrapping paper I used. I charmed it to flash. Ah, the power of being magic.
They loved the hats and jammed them on their heads. Then they ate a lot of the chocolate I gave them. Then they demanded that Alicia went next. And this went on and on until we all opened all of our presents… That took about an hour so when we were finally finished it was six in the morning. Yup, the twins are in for a morning wake up call.
I ended up getting a Weird Sister's shirt from Angelina, a charm bracelet from Alicia, they twins went together and bought me a butt load of Zonko's stuff, and Lee got me chocolate, a necklace with this awesome little heart on it, a Quidditch book, and a bear hug. I loved every bit of it. Ew, now I'm getting all sappy. Stupid Lee. Oh yeah, Oliver gave me a list of plays that we needed to practice before out next game. Oy. Isn't he just a loveable captain?
BreakfastThere was a huge breakfast this morning. Like, insanly huge. Like, not even Kevin could eat it all huge! And Kevin eats a lot. A lot a lot. A lot a lot a lot. Wow, I have this weird habit to just keep rambling. Darn.
Anyway, the six of us walked down to the Great Hall at six thirtyish to eat breakfast. The sky looked really nice this morning. I guess it's because it's Christmas and all. Maybe.
"Katie, pass the toast," George called to me from across the table.
I chucked two slices at his head. It's only partial payback. Speaking of payback, did I mention mine and Leanne's hair is back to normal. I kind of miss the red. It was starting to grow on me. But when it was black it was horrible. This little second year with a camera took a picture and called it 'Girl in Depression'. He's going to grow up with goats some day. Because, I like photos and art and stuff… but he just kind of ruins it for me.
I gave him a grim look and he just took another picture so I walked away.
Anyway, back to the present! (Which is actually the past now that I think about it because… where I am now it's nighttime and everything.)
George caught a piece in his mouth. That's just not right! He's not supposed to turn this into a game! So, I chuck my juice at him. Whoot! Maturity! It's one of the best feelings in the world.
The others all looked at me.
"I- uh- well you see- uh- HAPPY CHRISTMAS!" I shout. Good cover up Katie. They'll never suspect a thing.
Angelina, thank Merlin, understands me (and apparently she's the only one who does) and she pulled a cracker off the table and gave one end to Fred. They both pulled. Fred got a Rudolph nose and Angelina got a leprechaun hat.
"Now, that's the Christmas spirit!" said Mr. Dumbledore. I don't think I've ever heard any one call him Mr. Dumbledore before. How weird. I wonder why I said that… Eh, oh well. Just let me rephrase that. "Now, that's the Christmas spirit!" Dumbledore said, standing up. That's a lot better, and a lot more descriptive.
So, the remainder of the students staying at Hogwarts, with the exception of a few boring Slytherins, took a cracker from the table and shared it with someone. Hats went flying everywhere and random things bounced out. It was very festive.
The GroundsThe twins dragged us out onto the grounds. This time I had both my shoes thank Merlin. My poor foot wont freeze this time… I hope. Because, it was nice and all to give me his shoe, but Fred's was just a tad too big and snow kept getting stuck in there and Merlin is it annoying.
Now, the twins wouldn't tell us what they were up to, but I had a hunch.
Okay, so I didn't but I could say I did.
Deary, you're just plain clueless.
I am not! Who asked you?
No one dear, but I have some great news.
And that would be? I'm kind of busy at the moment.
I'm getting married
WHAT! MORE ALIENS IN MY HEAD? I forbid you to do so.
We won't always be in your head deary. The one I'm marrying has a nice place in some mad of Germany.So… you're saying that you'll be around less?
Yes. And that I'm getting married!Congrats.
(My uncle's engaged! How cool is that! HuzzaH!)
Anyway, we all cautiously followed the twins outside. They were looking around and they brought us to the hill that's above the lake. You know, the one with the trees and that nifty rock. Yeah, that one.
They brought us there and charmed snow stuff on us. They are really good with a wand. And they don't even pay attention in class. I must suck at life… Because it always comes back and bites me in the butt. Gah.
Then, they went behind the tree and came out with three wooden sleds. THOSE THINGS ARE SO COOL! Lee, Angelina, Alicia, and me just watched as they set them down in front of us. I bet if we stayed like that any longer, our faces would have frozen off… If that makes any sense at all… Well it does to me anyway. I guess you just had to be there.
Anyway, we all paired off. It wasn't a big surprise of who went with who. The usual Fred and Angelina, Alicia and George, and I got stuck with Lee. Hehehe, just kidding. They threatened me to go with him. I mean, who likes him anyway. The kid smells.
And I'm guessing that you guessed that I was lying. Well, I hope you did because I was. Anyway. Fred and Angelina went first because they were the boldest of us all. Ha. I heard Angelina scream all the way down. It was quite amusing actually.
Then Alicia and George went. She was covering his eyes the whole time. So he couldn't really steer. They ran into a tree… but not dead on. Like, you could hear the side of the sled scraping against it.
"Do you want to sit in front? Or do you want me to sit in front?" Lee asked as Fred and Angelina made their way back up here and George and Alicia were almost done.
"It doesn't matter," I said. I don't care. I hate choices. I guess that's why I always do horrible on multiple choices. Damn.
"Well, pick one. I hate picking," Lee whined. Oh, so I'm dating a whiner, now am I? Well, two can play at that game Mr.!
"So do I!" I complained. "Have you not seen my multiple choice test grades? They're horrible!"
"Fine, fine," Lee said. "Rock paper scissors and… the winner… sits in the front."
"Okay," I agreed.
We did rock paper scissors. I won. Oh dear. He trusts our lives in his hands. I have to steer. This won't turn out that good.
Once Alicia and George were safely out of the way, Lee pushed the sled a little and jumped on the back.
You never know how steep a hill is until you're sliding down it at unknown speeds. But I smiled the whole way.
Especially when Lee whispered that he really liked his gift and he was glad that I liked mine.
After the rush was over, and the hill finally stopped, we slid out onto the lake. I did not know that this would happen. Did I even mention my fear of ice with water underneath?
I didn't?
Didn't think so. Well, you see, when I was about four, Kevin and me were ice-skating on the pond behind our neighbors house. Our neighbor, who's name I forgot, came and started jumping around us and Kevin told him to stop. But little what's his face decided he didn't want to listen to Kevin. He didn't listen. He fell in. Let's just say he was under the defrosting charm for quite a while. And his mother wasn't too pleased either.
So, as we slowed down near the middle of the lake, I freaked out and grabbed Lee's hair. I'm pretty sure I flung my hands behind me and took what I could. It was pretty skillful if you ask me.
Then, because of my insanity and stupidity, Lee gets all worried like I'm a mother going into labor. Hey, I think I'm getting better at similes and metaphors… I still can't tell which is which though…. I'm not? Eh, who cares? Anyway, Lee starts talking. "Katie! Are you okay? Merlin, what's wrong? Ow! My hair! Katie! Katie stop screaming!"
So, I was too freaked out to do anything. Fred, Angelina, Alicia, and George ended up sledding down the hill to find out why I was screaming when the sled stopped moving.
"Ice. Break. Shiver. Drown." Yup. That's what I said. I'm just so talkative.
We ended up going back to the Common Room shortly after that. Great, I ruined the fun. Aren't I just a pleasant person to be around? Maybe I should just turn into a hermit and get my … uh… I'll but a pigeon and he can bring me food everyday. No one will have fun ruined by Katie. And why does fun ruined by Katie sound like a designer name? Wow, I'm losing it.
Common Room, on our way to dinner"Alicia, come on!"
We're all (and by all I mean me and Angelina waiting for Alicia) sitting here starving and Alicia decides that she wants to look nice for George. I think someone might have a crush. Unless they're already dating. No one tells me anything around here! I always hear about it from some freak first year. Oy.
"I'm coming!" Alicia yelled.
"Why would she care so much?" I asked, looking at my friends. "I mean, I don't dress up for anyone." Good thing the twins and Lee were already down there.
"That's because you've already got what you want," Angelina said to me. Merlin, when did she become so smart?
"Oh," I said, looking down at my sweat pants. I always buy bigger sized and cut off the elastic band. (Gah, I hate the elastic band!) It annoys me.
After dinnerNothing that exciting happened in dinner. George almost choked on some Christmas cake. Yes cake. Hogwarts gives us cake on Christmas. Why? I'll never know… but they do!
Lee and me left early to walk up to the Common Room together. Yeah, aww, I know. Okay, well we didn't leave early. The twins had something planned and Lee said that we shouldn't be around to see it because it might get a little bit messy. So we left.
We walked, sat on the moving staircase because it changed twice while we were on it, and we finally reached the Common Room where there were only a few sixth years in there.
Me and Lee jumped at the chance of claiming the couch. We hardly ever get the couch. We only got it this morning because the twins are crazy and woke us up at six thirty. Which reminds me… I need to get revenge on them… Which reminds me again… I still need to get revenge on Lee.
Anyway, Lee sat on the couch and I sat next to him. He put his arm around me.
He's so warm. And he smells really nice. Like, really nice. It makes me want pie. So nice, and warm, and cuddly. I never ever ever want to move.
We sat and talked about the days event and the good old times when I was just a wee little first year and Fred and George decided to prank me. Okay, so that wasn't as good but still.
Eventually everyone else came up here and we actually had a civil conversation for a change. Well, after they all changed. For some reason they were all covered in green paint. But at that moment, all nice and warm and snuggled up, I didn't really care.
It's just that perfect feeling of being warm, comfortable, and full of food. I love that feeling and never want to let it go.
Man, I'm getting too sappy. One of these days I'm going to smack myself or… or something.
It was getting late and we all got up early so I was about to make my way to bed. I stood up, and as soon as I did I got cold, and walked over to the staircase.
Fred took out his wand. Hmm… I think he might turn George's hair blue. I heard them plotting about it.
Lee shot up once he realized I'd moved and ran over.
"Hey, Katie," Lee said, holding my arm.
I stifled a yawn and turned back to him. "Hmm?"
"Look up," he said with a boyish grin.
I looked up and saw… cabbage? No wait… yes! It was cabbage!
"Cabbage?" I asked, looking at it.
Lee rolled his eyes and turned to Fred. "I told you! Mistletoe! Not cabbage! Mistletoe!"
I started laughing, as did everyone else, as Fred replied, "This was the closest they had!"
"Oy," Lee said.
"Ah, Lee," I said. And, pretending that the cabbage was mistletoe, I kissed him.
I finally win.
A/n: Whoa. That was a pretty long chapter. But I had to get everything in. Sorry if you don't like the length. But I didn't want to split it into two. I even left some stuff out. Eh, well I hope you liked it! Review:p
