After the Great Hall shock, about Harry being the fourth champion, things seemed to change a bit. Ron and Blair spend like way too much time together, and of course Ron got so mad at Harry that they didn't even talk anymore. Fleur was way too worried to even pay attention to something else besides the tournament. I often wonder why did the Goblet chose her, no wait. Why on Merlin's beard did she put her name in the Goblet in the first place?

I and Hermione were always studying in the library, chatting and catching up. She didn't seem too content to see Ron with Blair all the time, but at the same time she didn't seem to catch on what was going on in between them. On the other hand, neither did I understood what was going on.

Oh, did I tell you that I also had Malfoy as a partner in Potions? I'm starting to believe that the fate is against me or something. At least he is good at Potions, so I don't have to worry about grades in that class.

On our second week we were already preparing ourselves for a test we had to take on Potions. So what else could a Ravenclaw do, other than get ready 2 weeks before the test? Search for her lost Potion book of course.

"Damn it, where did I put it?!" I said to myself while searching and searching everywhere in the dorms and common room.

"BLAIR!" I shouted hoping she could help me. But of course, no answer.

'She must be with Ron. Again. AGAIN!' I thought nervous.

"Need help, Evelyn?" a soft voice came from the door. It was Luna.

"Thank you Merlin! Luna I need your help, I lost my potions book." I said in a desperate tone.

"Didn't you leave it on the desk in the Potion's classroom?" she simply said as if she knew it was there.

Then it hit me.

"How do you always pay attention to everything?" I asked her curiously.

"I'm not. I just look" she said and went downstairs to the common room.

I decided it was best if I went to search for my book before it was too late. When I reached the Potion's classroom, there was no book.

'This can't be real.' I thought while panicking that I couldn't find the damn book. 'But then again, maybe Malfoy has it. Great, now let's go Malfoy hunting' I thought while rolling my eyes.

Searching through the corridors up and down, the Great Halls... I finally found him in the Middle Courtyard. He was walking with his friends, and Pansy too. I cringed as I saw her.

'That girl gives me the creeps' I thought while trying to reach Malfoy. Seeing as he was walking too fast for me to catch up I tried to yell to wait for me.

"Malfoy!" I yelled at first but he didn't hear me. So I tried once again "Malf-" as soon as I reached the porch of the courtyard, a burst was heard and soon I was covered in what seemed to be feathers, sprinkles and… GLUE! And on top of that they were all pink. AGAIN.

The courtyard was silent for a minute before everyone started laughing. Even Malfoy could be heard laughing.

'Just great' I thought while I was afraid to open my eyes because of the glue. I was actually ready to, well, cry. No one was helping me and I just stood there like an idiot.

I could feel the tears that were welling up and before I knew it I was actually crying in front of everyone. The glue was basically everywhere, it was useless to say that I will need a powerful spell to get all of this off, especially from my hair.

Soon I felt a pair of arms picking me up and shushing me, trying to calm me down.

"It's going to be alright, Evelyn. Don't cry, please. I'm sorry." A voice that I knew all too well said.

"We are very sorry, Evelyn. It wasn't meant for you" another voice said. "We're taking you to Madame Pomfrey" he continued.

I couldn't answer seeing as the glue was starting to become more solid and it hurt every inch of my skin.

'This can't be happening to me' I thought, trying to think about something else other than the pain I was feeling.

"I'm so sorry, Evie. Please forgive me. I'm sorry" the voice continued.

I knew Fred was sorry, but that didn't mean he will be forgiven that easily.

May Merlin bless Misses Pomfrey for using a potion which melted all the glue away, though leaving me red skin.

"I'm sorry, honey. But you'll have to wait for the skin to heal itself, I can't do anything about it" she said giving me a small smile. I simply nodded and looked at my red arms. I looked like a firecrab.

'And again 10 points for the Weasleys and their wonderful jokes.' I thought while tears formed in my eyes again.

"I'll leave you two alone for now. But mr. Weasley, you should leave before curfew" she said and left as alone.

I didn't even noticed that Fred was still there. Without George.

'Wow. This is indeed a rare moment.' I thought glaring at him. He seemed really guilty by the look on his face.

"It wasn't meant for you' he started saying.

"I don't care." I interrupted him. "It's dangerous to put glue on someone! Do you not think about it before doing something that stupid and irresponsible?!"

He just shifted on his chair avoiding my gaze.

"Very mature, as always." I added, which seemed to make him angry.

"Look who's talking about being mature" he snapped back. I was actually surprised, it isn't a Fred thing to get angry.

"I don't think you're in the position to talk about it" I retorted.

He snapped out of his chair. "Evelyn, don't you dare use this against me for what you've done before"

"You've got to be kidding me! I never hurt you physically! Look at my skin, at my face! I look like I was skinned alive!" I said tears forming in my eyes. He seemed to regain composure and sat down again, pulling his chair nearer the bed. He tried touching my hand, but I pulled it away quickly.

"It still hurts you know" I whispered not looking at him.

"It hurts me too, Evelyn. You have no idea" he said searching for my gaze. I finally looked at him.

"I don't know…" I trailed off.

"You don't know, what?" he asked

"I don't know why I reacted like that" I sighed looking straight into his eyes, searching to see if he would understand me.

"You could try explaining." He simply stated.

"I-I don't know where to begin."

"Maybe from the beginning?" he said snickering.

'C'mon Evelyn, you have to be honest with him.' I thought while trying to gather up all the courage I had in me.

"I thought I didn't like you anymore. That's the reason I didn't write to you anymore" I finally said it. It's done.

"You could've told me that, not just leave me thinking Merlin knows what" he said with a sad smile. "Can I at least know the reason why you didn't like me anymore?"

"I think I started liking someone else" I said not looking at him. He got tense.

"I guess that's a good reason." He said and stood up.

"Fred, wait. I-" I started saying but he interrupted me.

"There's no need to explain feelings, Evie. It's ok to like someone else. I'm still your friend" he said giving me a sad smile. "I have to go now, I'll visit tomorrow. Good night, Evelyn." And with that he was gone.

"It doesn't mean that I don't like you anymore, Fred" I whispered to myself only.

'Good job. As always'
