A/N: First off, I'm sorry if this chapter was bad or short. And I know some were looking forward to this chapter so I hope I didn't ruin it for you.

Disclaimer:I don't own anything dealing with 'Harry Potter.'


"You can't hold that against me! I was a child! A foolish, foolish child!" she exclaimed quietly.

"I was younger than you and I didn't even mess up," he said. "And you're still foolish," he added.

When Rose was nine and Hugo seven, he wanted to play a prank on their parents when he found some muggle prank items in the closet. What item did he choose? A whoopee cushion, of course. He put one cushion where their father usually sat during dinner and one where their mother typically sat. Rose stood in the background laughing. Once dinner came around, Rose was excited to see what would happen. So excited in fact, that she kept giggling every time one of them got ready to sit. Ron and Hermione put one and one together and found the two whoopee cushions.

"But I've changed! I promise!" Rose said. A little too loudly at that. The adults turned their attention to her again.

"What are you two talking about?" asked an amused Harry.

"Oh, this speech this girl said to Hugo," Rose lied. Hugo glared at her when Ron spoke up.

"You had a girlfriend, Hugo?" Hugo shook his head.

"It was Albus," he said, pointing to the middle Potter.

"It this true, Al?" Ginny asked.

Al's eyes grew larger and his hand came up and pointed in James's direction. "It was James!"

"I didn't mean to do it; it was a complete accident!" James yelled out suddenly. An awkward silence initiated.

"What didn't you mean to do?" Ginny finally asked. James looked confused.

"So you guys aren't talking about – never mind," he said, turning a faint pink. Slowly, the chit chat began again, but occasionally someone would shoot the three boys odd glances.

"Thanks a lot, Rose," Hugo said, but even he had to admit that was hilarious. Rose just smiled.

"Hey, what can I say?" she said in a fake pompous voice. She tapped her fingers against her left cheek and ate the last bit of risotto on her plate. She rinsed it down with some butterbeer and turned to Albus. "Okay, I won't bug you guys anymore until your dumb prank," she whispered. Al grinned and winked.

"It won't be so dumb when you see what it is," he said. "Now we just have to wait until my mum is done with her risotto," he attached after he saw his mother was still eating. The second the last bite was in her mouth, Hugo jumped up and grabbed the plates near him. When they gave him an odd look, he explained.

"Can't wait for afters. Come on then, Rose." Rose nodded slowly and helped him pick up the plates. "Ah, pumpkin cheesecake," he said when they stood at the table with three platters of the cheesecake. They each grabbed one platter and them on the dining room table. Rose grabbed the last platter and Hugo grabbed the three cans of whipped cream and she might have noticed it, but she thought she saw him grin a little. They settled down in their seats and waited as their mum cut one platter in equal sections before doing the other two. Then the three cans of whipped cream were passed around: James had one, Rose and Al's parents shared one and the Malfoys claimed one. After she sprayed some cream on her cheesecake, Rose waited. And waited. And waited. When nothing happened following that, Rose calmed down a little and bit into her cake.

Maybe they forgot she thought, but even that idea was farfetched. There were only twenty-five minutes left of the dinner was when it happened. If only Rose had saw the tip-off. Hugo grinned at Al who turned to Lily and secretly moved his thumb down his chin. The tip-off. Lily nodded and glanced at James getting another slice of cake. Her hand shot up and grabbed the can resting by her brother's plate.

"Hugo!" she yelled and she threw the can at Rose's brother before anyone had time to intercept it. Hugo caught it and grinned. Al leaned down and grabbed something to his right; a can of whipped cream.

That's why Hugo was crouching down by the door and that explains that 'clunk' noise! She connected the pieces.

"Hugo, Al, what are you two doing?" Hermione asked.

But they didn't hear her. Hugo yelled, "Take this, James!" and was spraying the cream at his oldest cousin. Al followed his lead and laughed when Lily got herself a can and was joining in. Rose didn't want to mess up her outfit, but it did look fun, so she grabbed the can by the Malfoys and joined in. Four against one. She heard a faint pop and saw that her father and uncle had disapparated.

They probably don't want to deal with the wrath of mum she thought, but just like that they were back. And they were carrying four more cans of 'Light and Fluffy' each. She grinned.

"Come on, Draco, Astoria, Scorpius! Don't just sit there; join in!" Ron yelled and he began spraying Al and Hugo while Harry got Lily and Rose. They hadn't actually thought the Malfoys were going to join, but there they were: spraying each other and whoever was spraying them. Ginny had seized one of the cans Ron and Harry had left on the table and it looked as if she was getting the contents in her husband's hair. Somewhere in all of this James had also collected a can and was getting back at Hugo, Al, and Lily, but he still had a considerable amount of cream all over him.

Rose even made sure to spray Lily a lot. It made her feel better, even if by a little. She felt someone behind her and had turned and squirted whoever the person was.

Scorpius.

She was going to apologize when he grinned and happily got her back. Why would she need to apologize anyway? Everyone was hitting anyone that was there.

Or so that was what she thought before every can of whipped suddenly stopped spraying. She looked at the table and saw one person hadn't picked up a can. Doing the math, you could see that all the Potters, Malfoys and three-fourths of the Weasleys had a can. That one-fourth missing was standing up at her seat with her wand in her hand and was looking absolutely livid. How could they forget she was there?

It was silent except for a sudden plop noise; some of the cream in her hair had fallen off and hit the floor.

There was a sound coming from behind Rose. It sounded very familiar . . . Rose's face paled when she figured out what the noise was.

And someone still had the audacity to laugh?!

A/N: Not the best chapter, but I hoped you liked it. :) And yeah, their prank wasn't so much a prank, but still. I promised that the adults wouldn't be sitting there and talking about boring stuff the whole time, so there you are, even if they weren't mentioned that much. There's still about two chapters left! Please: Review! I want to know who you think is laughing! :)
