A/N: The final segment of my entry to the Magic Number competition! Fred, using the prompt Not That Kind Of Party. Enjoy!
"Fred! Come on! I'm going to be late!" Percy thundered down the stairs, banging on the door of the twins' bedroom.
"Why do you want me to come along to your dumb 'party' anyway? I mean, really Perce, who's party would you go to?" Fred said as he poked his head out of his room.
"Well..." said Percy, clearly trying to avoid telling Fred something, "It's not so much a party as it is a...ummm...meeting."
"I'll pass," Fred said. "Again, I ask: Why do you want me to come along anyway?"
"Well, if you must know, Mum's making me drag you along. Honestly, I'd be perfectly happy if you just stayed home. I don't want you to ruin this for me."
"So...I guess I'm not going then," Fred remarked.
"I suppose not. However, we need to come up with a way to ensure that mum won't find out that you're not going. Between you and me, it's not that kind of party. Actually, its a meeting that aids young witches and wizards in becoming better role models." Percy gave Fred a meaningful look, as though throughly understanding that Fred would have been utterly miserable at any meeting with such goals.
"Thanks Perce," said Fred, clapping his elder brother on the back. "I'll tell her something...You'd better go, you don't want to miss your party." Fred gave a little smirk, slowly closing the door.
Percy sighed, and continued down the stairs, and out the door. Fred, he reflected, wasn't all that bad. Not in the long-run, at least.
A/N:So I originally wanted to go out with a bang here, but I was in a bit of a time constraint. Hope it doesn't show too much. A little view of a perk in the relationship of Percy and Fred. :) Review please!
