Chapter 7. Safeguards
A handful of witches and wizards danced on the tiny dance floor to a loud and fast Weird Sisters' song, the trio joined jumping and swaying spiritedly. After a couple of songs the potion seemed to kick in resulting in the twins slowly invading Anna's space until they both exchanged a look and Fred proceeded to grab hold of her hips, pushing himself towards her and kissing the left pulse point of her neck, while at the same time George pushed behind her and began stroking up her arms and kissing her right shoulder.
Anna's eyes widened before slowly burring each of her hands in their ginger locks and pulling them back, sweetly. "Ok guys, time to go, she stepped out of the twin sandwich and pulled out her wand quill and notepad again. "Dancing increases effects."
They proceeded to pay the tab, and apparated back in the twins flat once more.
Both twins still seemed to be under the increased effect, their hands seemed unable to stop caressing her arms, back and waist.
Anna sighed looking slightly annoyed but knowing well enough it was the potion's effect. She liked the twins, she really did. She could even consider them her friends, and Merlin knew she didn't have a lot of those, she even though they were quite attractive. She knew it was time to test the safeguards, she just had to be a damn professional about it and not make a big deal out of it. She had even already kissed them once upon a time.
She exhaled loudly. "Might as well get over this part..." She turned to her left where George was entranced caressing her arm and took his ginger locks in her right hand pushing him down towards her mouth crashing their lips together. George only too eagerly responded, quickly taking her waist and pulling her towards him hungrily. The truth was Anna had only ever snogged Noriyuki Sato this hotly before and even with her extremely high tolerance for alcohol, she felt drunker than she ever had before in George's arms. To her surprise she felt a second set of hands and lips on her arms and shoulders. Fred. She slowly remembered her job, testing the safeguards, right, she wasn't going to be able to do this with both at the same time. She pulled out her wand, turned around and pushed Fred back with a spell making him whimper and fall back into a chair, she followed it up with a Petrificus Totalus before sweetly trying to explain. "Sorry Fred, you'll have to wait your turn."
She turned back to George resuming their snogging and proceeded to let her hands slowly slide down his back. Once her hands were dangerously close to his rear, the twin took her hands in his, pulling them sweetly away. She smiled against his mouth, frankly impressed by their magical skills. She felt more confident now, placing her hands on George's chest and started sliding them down slowly, once again once she was in close proximity to his manhood, his hands appeared to stop her in their tracks. She was actually finding this kind of fun. She suddenly stopped kissing him and pushed him towards the bed, straddling him only to find him subtly denying access to sit on his crotch.
"Impressive" She smiled.
Every move she made to try to get him to touch her breast, bum or crotch, were deflected, and even when she tried to rub herself on his leg, he pulled her off softly.
Anna laughed "Really guy's if you've put half your wits into something more productive you would've already won the Slime & Potion Concoction Award, this is amazing."
George was still smiling up drunkenly at her holding her waist while she tried to straddle his leg.
"Ok, last test…Please shag me George." She said as overly acted as humanly possible.
Suddenly George's eyes widened, and he quickly carried Anna off him and to her feet before he shook his head groggily. "It worked didn't it?" He asked, smiling.
Anna beamed. "Better than I ever thought, you guys really are brilliant!" She said excitedly.
"Um what are you gonna do with Fred?" Asked George kind of apprehensively looking at his petrified brother.
Anna turned to look at Fred who could only blink, pensively. "I'm not sure, he displayed a higher effect than you."
George sat up on the bed. "That's cause he likes you more." He said nonchalantly.
Anna walked towards Fred watching him intently. "I figured as much, I wanna test how long the potion lasts on him."
"Well this was an 8 hour batch, by morning he should be back to normal if you don't activate the safeguard." George explained.
"Mmm, I'll use a sleeping charm on him, and test him out in the morning, but it would be better if I stay over to observe him." Anna said looking at Fred's pupils once more.
"I'll take the couch. You can use my bed." George said, pulling out fresh linens from a closet.
"Thanks" Anna smiled.
She proceeded to levitate Fred to his bed taking off his shoes, belt, jacket and shirt and charm him to sleep before she lifted the petrification curse.
"Do you mind if I shower? You guys kind of drooled on me." Anna asked George before heading to the washroom.
"Go ahead." George said chuckling.
"And could I borrow a shirt or something I could sleep in?" Anna said popping her head out of the washroom.
"Sure." George said, tossing her a shirt. "And Anna…"
She caught the shirt expertly. "Yes George?"
"Thanks again for doing this." George said with a genuine smile as he took off his shirt.
"Anytime George, never a dull moment with you guys." Anna said from behind the washroom door.
