Fred and George Weasley were, of course, the Pranksters. That was their given nickname by many of their friends and admirers. Yes, they were proud to say they had admirers.
Fred would come up with a little joke, George would add on something more exciting, they would both pull it off without anyone getting hurt. That's how the business went.
Eventually, they started making products, such as: Pucking Pastiles, Nosebleed Nougat, Reusable Hangmen, Skiving Snackboxes, Extendable Ears, and more.
"Hey Fred, we should start a business with this!" George exclaimed to his twin brother. They were sitting in chairs in the Gryffindor common room, making lots and lots of Skiving Snackboxes. They appeared to be very popular.
"Of course! Why didn't I think of that?" Fred replied.
"Because I'm the smarter one." George said cheekily.
"Well at least I'm the handsome-er one."
"Yeah, right."
Just at that moment, Hermione Granger walked in. She looked very angry and marched right up to the twins. They looked up at her and gave their best innocent-looking smiles.
"What have you two done?!" Hermione growled.
"Whatever do you mean, my good lady?" Fred replied, putting on an air of speaking to a queen.
"I mean, that kids have had nosebleeds and been puking a whole lot! And I know you two have been making products like that!"
"Dearest Hermione, we would never do that, why would you think that?" George asked, imitating the voice Fred had used earlier.
"You have to stop this at once!" Hermione said.
"Maybe we will," Fred started.
"Maybe we won't." George finished with a sly smile. Hermione let out a shout of frustration and marched upstairs into the Gryffindor common room.
"At least we won't have to worry about her when we start a business in Hogsmeade." Fred noted. George nodded and kept working.
A few months later, the twins were getting ready for their exams. They were seventh years, taking N.E.W.T.s. They were working hard to study, but they were working twice as hard on their project. They had started packing up on lots of their products.
Nosebleed Nougats and Puking Pastilles were no longer being given to first and second years who wanted to get out of work; The students could not be found playing Hangman multiple times; and no one was listening to conversations they shouldn't have been, hence Extendable Ears.
Fred and George reassured everyone that soon enough, there would be a shop in Hogsmeade called Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes where they can get the products. They had made many more than really needed, but they knew the products would go fast, everyone loved them so much.
"Exams are very close, Mr. Weasley and Mr. Weasley." McGonagall scolded. "You should not be spending your free time making these little jokes. You should be studying!"
"My, my," George whispered to Fred. "Hermione's exactly like McGonagall."
"Yeah." Fred whispered back. "Definitely."
Exams came and went. The Weasley twins did fairly well and got at least Acceptable in everything.
"Well George, I think we did well."
"Yes we did."
"Although, I think we should have gotten E's in everything."
"Yes, you're right, Fred, we Exceed Expectations just by showing up to exams."
A/N: Thanks for reading! I came across a little thing that said something like "Fred and George Exceed Expectations just by showing up to exams." So I decided to make a little one-shot about it! :)
I hope you enjoyed it and I hope it was funny enough for a Fred and George one.
Please review! Stay tuned and stay safe!
