I waited for George excitedly in compartment 13. I was completely on my own as Angie was getting the train down from her short holiday in Scotland and no one else would arrive at least until then, in about fifteen minutes time. George didn't keep me waiting long. I saw him coming along the corridor with purposeful strides. He threw the door open and I leapt up at him, his hands wrapped around me instantly. I felt one sneaking up the back of my top and the other straying down to my lower back, the down lower.
We were completely wrapped up in each other, physically, mentally, completely. Only awoken from one another by a knock on the compartment window. Luckily we had thought to shut the blinds as when we came back to ourselves and realised what we were doing we noticed that we were in a position that I would not have chosen, although I could feel that George thought differently.
We were lying across the seat with George on top of me, my legs wide and his in-between. We were now broken apart but our arms still wrapped tight around each other, bringing us so close that there was no closer and breathing raggedly. After a moment I detached my arms from George and made an effort to sit up. My movement seemed to wake him slightly as he got up off me and allowed me to get up.
After a few moments trying desperately to fix my now incredibly messed up hair I called the others in. The others were Fred, Angie and Katie who all knew exactly what we had been doing, despite not having been told and my best efforts to fix my hair.
"Hey Fred! Nice holiday?" I asked him after hugging Katie in greeting. Fred chose not to hug me but just nodded quietly and sat down next to the door, as far away as possible from me and his twin. I was sure he didn't mean anything by it but twincest really creeps him out and I'm sure he knew even better than Katie and Angelina what I had been doing with his twin brother.
The journey passed a little awkwardly but fortunately when Lee arrived he didn't know what had happened so he was able to ease the atmosphere with his usual jokes making everything a lot better. I spent the journey sat next to George as a pose to on his lap this time. Firstly because I didn't want to freak Fred out even more, but also because I was a little unnerved at the position I had found myself in with George.
I was more than a little worried about what might have happened had our friends arrived a few minutes later. I knew what George wanted to happen, I wasn't stupid and I knew that the picture I had sent him for Christmas really couldn't have helped, but I still wasn't sure how I felt. I think George sensed my nervousness as he wrapped an arm around my shoulders and pulled my closer so that I was leaning on him. I smiled up at him, not wanting to look him in the eyes directly.
Both twins have very expressive eyes and it's wise not to look into them unless you're prepared for what they might have to say. I knew that I was no means prepared for some of the emotions I might see in my boyfriend's eyes so I carefully avoided looking.

I was just as unaware as Alicia exactly what position we had gotten ourselves into until we heard a knock on the compartment door, but I suspected I probably had a little more to do with it than she did. When I came back to myself enough to get up and get off her I felt a little guilty. I know I hadn't meant for that to happen but if it weren't for my brother and our friends with their excellent sense of timing I can't say I'm entirely sure what would've happened. Even though it didn't happen I can tell I freaked her out, I really hadn't meant to do that to her, I'd promised myself I wouldn't pressure her.
When she sat down next to me I could practically feel how uncomfortable she was, great, make me feel even more guilty. I put an arm around her gently, wanting to make sure she was still okay. She allowed me to pull her to me for the rest of the journey so I'm hoping that means it's okay. We didn't go any further, partly because I didn't want to freak her out and partly because Fred looks seriously freaked already. Not saying it's not fun freaking him out sometimes but I think we did enough for today already.
I noticed that although Alicia seemed perfectly fine she refused to look me in the eye. She told me once that I have hugely expressive eyes and she doesn't have to see my face to see my emotions, my eyes tell her better than my face could. My eyes don't lie either. Unless it's to a teacher. Now she was just making me feel incredibly guilty and a bit scared, but honestly, if she had looked into my eyes she would've just seen me looking guilty and apologetic. I deliberately didn't look Fred in the eye because I knew he'd just tell me that I'm always too apologetic.
That's the problem with our pranks; we mastermind them and neither of us thinks of people getting hurt or upset. Then we carry them out and afterwards we think about it. Then Fred still doesn't care because it was worth the laughs and I must say I agree with him, I still care though. Damn being the sensitive twin.

I really shouldn't have expected to be able to just go to sleep when we got back to the dorms after the feast. I got into my pyjamas and tried to get into bed and shut my hangings, only to find my two best friends holding them open. "Spill." Ordered Angelina sitting down on the end of my bed. If I had hoped for some sympathy from Katie I was sorely mistaken as she just grinned at me and shook her head before throwing herself down onto my feet next to Angie.
"Ah, shit! Katie that's my bloody foot!" I swore at her, moving the now injured foot out of harm's way. "What do you want me to spill?" Angie smirked, she actually bloody smirked at me!
"Oh come on Lis, you know we want to know what happened earlier on the train before we all got there." She said, still smirking. I sighed, there was nothing else I could do. With that look on Angelina's face there is nothing at all you can do but just do as she says and spill. I looked at Katie again pleadingly but she just giggled.
"Fine, I'll tell you." They grinned at each other and leaned in as I described the day's event. "I'm serious Angie, you might have a high opinion of Fred but no one on this earth could possibly kiss better than George. He's a bloody good kisser, a fucking good kisser seriously."
I finished my account then looked up hopefully for them to leave. Katie got up but Angelina grabbed her wrist and yanked her back down onto my bed. "If that's all Alicia, then why did your hair look like hippogriffs have nested in it?" She had me there, this was confirmed when I blushed. "Ha!" she crowed at me, "Knew there was something more! Come on Lis, spill it all or we'll find out by less preferable methods." I didn't need to raised eyebrow to get that she would not be above force-feeding me veritaserum or doing something equally unethical to find out this seemingly crucial piece of information.
Blushing scarlet I told her about the position we had found ourselves in, much to both of my friends' amusement. "You are joking me!" Angelina choked out after her giggle fit, which Katie and even I had joined in on, had subsided. I shook my head,
"No Angie, I'm telling the truth. I didn't mean to get like that," this renewed Angie and Katie's giggles so I hit Angelina over the head with a pillow, Katie was more subtle with hers, before continuing, "I was just kissing him with no idea of anything else then you banged on the door and we both sort of woke up and we were like that."
"Oh come on Katie, there is no way in hell you managed to get lying across the seat, with George on top of you, straddling him if neither of you wanted it." Angelina told me sounding very sceptical.
"I didn't say neither of us wanted it, just that I didn't mean it to happen. I'm still not sure how I feel about it personally." The three of us exchanged a look,
"And George…?" asked Katie slowly, I shrugged. I've always thought honesty with your friends, however evil they may be, is best whatever the answer to whichever question. "I'm fairly sure I know how George feels." There was silence in the dorm, I bit my lip. For another minute or so there was silence, the Angie broke it by bursting out laughing.
"What?" I asked, indignant. Here I was with a serious problem and all my best friend could do was laugh at me?
"I'm sorry Lis, it's just, you act like you really weren't expecting it or wanting it!" she said, trying to supress her laugher. I just looked at her, perplexed. When had I ever mentioned that I would like to go shag my boyfriend?
"Oh come on Alicia! You did send him a naked picture of yourself!" Suddenly Katie, who had been gazing tiredly into space, sat up so straight that she promptly fell off the bed.
"You did what Lis?" she yelled at me from the floor. At any other time I would've laughed at this but I was too busy staring shocked and indignantly at Angie who was laughing at Katie for me.
"I did not send him a naked picture of myself!" I yelled at her, making her laugh even louder.
"Okay then babe, what were you wearing?" she giggled as Katie got back on to the end of my bed. I bit my lip again,
"The sexy underwear he got me for Christmas." I muttered, blushing absolutely crimson and staring at my lap. Angelina howled with laughter and Katie fell of the bed again.
"Why is it that I spend two weeks, just two weeks in France and all of a sudden you're getting lingerie for Christmas and then posing in it to show your boyfriend?" She spluttered over Angie's witch cackles as she climbed back onto my bed again.
"Well, you remember our Halloween costumes?" I proceeded to tell the story of exactly why my lovely and incredibly thoughtful boyfriend had bought me lingerie and then how I'd decided to show him I appreciated it. By the end I was bright red again, Angie was cackling again and Katie was giggling with her hands over her mouth in a mixture of horror and amusement.
"And you're still trying to tell us you don't want it?" Katie asked me. Now this was surprising, I was used to Angelina saying that kind of thing but having Katie say it was just a shock.
"Katie!" I yelled at her, even Angie was looking surprised but Katie just grinned at me.
"Come on Lis! He sends you the sexiest underwear imaginable then you not only keep it and actually try it on, you put it on and take a picture of yourself in a sexy pose! Please, I know you and Angie are more experienced in these matters," Angie took a small bow, "But even first years have enough experience to know you want it too!" Damn. Okay, they'd won.
