I woke up the next morning with a smile on my face. Last night was a blast. Fred and George sneaked in some butterbeers and I provided the music. I showered and changed before my rommates were awake. "Good morning world and all who inhabit it!" I greeted as I opened the curtains of Hermione's, Ginny's, Katie's, Alicia's and My dorm.
"SHUT UP! I'M TRYING TO SLEEP!" Katie said muffled from under her pillow, trying to cover the bright sun.
"YEAH! IT'S ONLY-" Alicia checked the time and said "WOAH! It's already 8!?"
"Huh? We're missing breakfast?!" Ginny questioned.
"SHOOT! I never get up this late!" Hermione panicked, running to the bathroom.
"Well, I tried waking you up but you guys kept trying to kick me!" I exclaimed as I started making my way to the Great Hall to get my schedules and the girls rushed to get everything the had to do done.
"Hello Ms. Reyes." George mentioned, kissing the back of my right hand.
"Yes, pleasant morning today isn't it?" said Fred, doing the same.
"D'you get your skeds already?" I asked, taking a sip from my orange juice.
"Double potions with Snape." Said the twins in unison. "It sucks."
I went to Professor McGonagall to get mine. I read it and it said I had Herbology first sub. I was going back to the gang until I heard an all-too-familiar voice saying,
"Well, if it isn't Mudblood Reyes!" Malfoy said with a smirk, his goons behind him and Abby wrapped in his right arm, smirking as well.
"Shut up, Malfoy. You are just a sad little boy that hides in the company of these two trolls here." I said, referring to Crabbe and Goyle, the mutts.
"You're just jealous because I'm with the most handsome, smartest and best guy in school." Gloated Abby.
I pulled out my wand and pointed it directly to Malfoy's face. "You better stay away from me or I'll put your goons in detention." I was the youngest Head Girl of the school and proud of it.
"Fine." Malfoy stated but I saw him pulling out his own wand too. "STUPE-"
"Stupefy!" a male voice shouted and Draco was stunned. Kingsley, Crabbe and Goyle ran away leaving Draco. I looked at the boy who saved me, none other than Fred Weasley. "Are you alright, Bella?" he asked with concern.
"Yeah. Thanks." I gazed into his Chocolate eyes as he gazed into mine.
"Ahem," said a high-pitched, mousy voice. I turned around to see Professor Umbridge looking intently at Me, Fred, and Malfoy, laying on the floor. "Go to professor Dumbledore's office. Both of you. NOW."
We walked and talked about the look on their faces when Malfoy was stupefied on our way to Dumbledore's office. "Fizzing Whizbees" I said and the stairs opened up. Fred and I swiftly walked up the steps and opened the oak door as we met Albus Dumbledore's eyes.
"Why, hello Mr. Weasley and Ms. Reyes!" He said with kindness and glee.
"Hello, Professor Dumbledore!" We said in unison.
"Please, dear children call me Albus." He requested. "I heard that you, Mr. Weasley, stunned Draco Malfoy?"
Fred looked a little nervous then responded shakily, "Yes, sir."
"I see. You do know that you can get in trouble with his father now, don't you?"
"Yes, sir."
"And that your father can also get in trouble with the Ministry?"
"Yes, but he was insulting Isabella!"
"Yes, Professor! He was only defending me!" I stated, helping Fred defend his sentence.
"Dear, I am not angry. I understand the nature of your anger, both of you. I just want to let you be warned. No more interfering with Mr. Malfoy, alright?"
We both sighed with relief. We weren't in trouble. "Yes, Albus." We said at the same time.
"Good. Now, run off or you will miss your second subject. I will send a note to Professor Sprout for you, dear Isabella and I best find that you skip your Potions lesson with Professor Snape, Fred, as I believe he might scold you." Said the headmater with kindness and concern in his eyes. We left the room with expressions of relief.
"Goodbye, love. see you later." I went off to my next lesson, Transfiguration as Fred went to the common room. I felt something strange at the pit of my stomach when Fred hugged me and kissed me on my forehead. It felt like I wanted it to last forever, like I didn't want him to let go. It felt really wierd to me.
"Good morning class. We shall get started right away as not to waste time. Grab your teacups and start with the animation spell." Professor McGonagall sat on her chair reading a spell book.
"Where have you been? " Hermione whispered to me, holding her animated teacup.
"Nowhere. Albus wanted to see me." I stated.
"That's Professor Dumbledore. You should know that. You're Head-"
"He wants me to call him Albus so, ignore it."
~Later on that day, walking to lunch~
"So how're lessons so far?" asked Fred, arm around my waist.
"Alright." I blushed looking away.
"What's this? A little lovebug crawling around here?" Ron asked smirk on his face. Fred and I immediately pulled away, blushing. George pulled me away from the gang.
"You like my twin brother, don't you?" He asked me. I put on an innocent face and retaliated,
"No! As a friend, sure. But no more than that." *Actually, I did like him. REALLY like him.* I thought. But, I can't tell him that. It'll ruin the friendship we have.
"You're lying!" Claimed George, arms crossed on his chest. "I know you like him, don't hide it."
I was too hungry to be held captive by George Weasley behind a pillar but I still hid it anyway. "No, I don't."
"I will find out." He walked into the great hall and I did the same. We all sat again in our usual spots, having a great time talking about random things.
"I have to go. I left my Skiving Snack in my dorm and I heard History of Magic is even WORSE. See you later!" Fred mentioned, getting up and walking out.
"Will you pass the pitcher of Iced Tea?" I requested for George to pass it to me.
"Sure." He put it under the table.
"Uhhh... what are you doing?" I asked him.
"Nothing." He replied mischeivously and passed it to me.
"Okaaayyyyyyy..." I poured some into my goblet and took a sip. George whispered something to Ron, Harry, Hermione and Ginny,a second later they all looked at me.
"Hey, Isabella, what's your patronus again?" asked George.
"A beagle."
"Do you like magic?"
"Yeah."
"What's your favorite animal?"
"An elephant."
"Do you like being head girl?"
"Yup."
"Do you like Fred?"
"Yeah." I was shocked that I said this in front of them. My hands over my mouth I nudged George on the ribs hardand shouted, "GEORGE! YOU PUT VERITASERUM IN MY DRINK!?"
"Yes, love. Told you I'd find out." He stated proudly.
