I had served my detention with Snape the night before for my unfinished homework, he made me write lines again, dammit. I swear that man was going to break my wrist one day. But it was behind me now, it was Saturday night, and it was late, everyone had gone to sleep except Harry, Lavender, Ron, Hermione, Fred, George, and I. And if that wasn't fun enough, we had decided to play Truth or Dare.
"Lexi, Truth or Dare?" George asked, a evil look on his face.
"Truth." I responded simply, there was no way in hell I was taking a dare from him.
"Have you lost your virginity, if so, with whom?"
I turned slightly pink. "No, I have not." I said, I then turned to Ron, a smirk playing on my lips.
"Ron, Truth or Dare?" I asked.
Ron gulped. "Tr-Dare." He said, I could tell he regretted saying it afterwards; after all, I was Fred's girlfriend.
"I dare you to kiss the next person to walk through the portrait hole." I told him with a smirk on my face, and he turned 10 different shades of red.
We waited 5 minutes until the portrait hole opened up, everyone held their breath. The person who had just entered the common room was, Ginny, Ron's baby sister.
We looked from Ginny to Ron who eyes were the size of dinner plates. I burst out laughing and then everyone followed, expect for of course Lavender.
"Well, go ahead and go do your dare Ron." Hermione said, wiping tears from her eyes from laughing so hard.
Ron gulped and walked over to Ginny. I watched him, smiling like an idiot, this was better than cable. Ron held Ginny by the shoulders and kissed her. The lot of us burst out laughing again as we heard Ginny retreat up the stairs and Ron come back to join us.
"I hate you." He said glaring at me, wiping his mouth.
"Yeah, get in line." I said between a few laughs.
He rolled his eyes. "Anyways, Lavender truth or dare?"
Our gazes were now fixed upon Lavender. "Uh—Dare?" She said uncertainly.
Ron smiled. "I dare you to kiss me." Lavender happily accepted and kissed Ron.
I rolled my eyes. "What kind of fucking dare is that? She sucks your face off all day long for Merlin's sake." I looked over at Hermione who was glaring at the two, obviously not enjoying the sigh of them snogging.
Thankfully, they pulled apart.
"Okay," Lavender said, looking around the circle. "Lexi." She said an evil smile on her face.
"Dare." I said before she could even ask me. What was the worst dare she could do, anyways?
"Then I dare you, to kiss Harry." She told me smiling her ass off.
Harry's and my eyes widened in shock. "WHAT?"
"You heard me." She told us happily.
I looked at Fred who seemed uncomfortable. "It's just a dare...it means nothing." He told me. It sounded as if he was trying to convince me and himself of that.
I was so pissed at her, I was waiting for the moment everyone started screaming because there was smoke coming from my head.
"Well Harry," I said. "I'm waiting."
"It's your dare." He spat back. I groaned. And went over to him, I closed my eyes and kissed him. I didn't like the way it felt, but I kissed him for my dare. Immediately I pulled away from him.
"Love you." I heard him murmured into my ear
I stared at him for awhile. "Uh..."
I made my way back over to Fred quickly and gave him a peck on the cheek. But the sad thing is, I couldn't stop thinking about that kiss, it felt so...so...so normal.
I looked among the group to pick who I was going to ask. I saw Hermione not looking at me, so I chose her.
"Uh, Hermione truth or dare?" I asked, still deep in my thoughts about the kiss.
Hermione looked at me with surprise, probably thinking 'why did she pick me.' "Truth."
"Is it true...you and Viktor Krum...had sex?" I asked, watching her steadily turn different shades of red.
"We snogged, once, but we never had sex." Hermione stated, I smiled widely at this, then my gaze flickered to Ron, who looked as if he might explode.
"Harry, truth or dare?" Hermione asked, regaining her natural color.
"Truth." Harry said, I knew why. He didn't have much to hide from us, and after the kiss, if he felt the way I did, doing a dare was out of the question.
"Is it true that you still love Lexi?" She asked, smiling at me.
My eyes widened. "Hermione!" I screamed, causing everyone to look at me. I looked at everyone who was staring at me; I blushed a little bit then looked away.
"Well, Harry do you?" I heard Fred ask him.
"Uh...yes." he said truthfully.
Why can't this guy just lie for once? I thought. Always have to be an open book, to us. Shit crackers.
"Interesting," I said. "Okay, WHO'S NEXT?" I asked, avoiding the subject of Harry.
"Wait, I thought Harry was over you." I heard George ask me.
I shrugged. "Anyways, Harry pick someone to go next." I ordered him, trying the best to avoid eye-contact with both, Fred and Harry. I grabbed Fred's hand and again told him that I loved him, and again I wondered if I was just convincing myself of that.
"Fred, Truth or Dare?" Harry asked a smirk on his face.
There was a pause."I can't imagine you could come up with a good dare, so truth." Fred finally said. I snuggled closer to him, my head on his shoulder, and our intertwined hands resting on my lap.
His emerald eyes, filled with jealousy suddenly."Why did you ask out Lexi?"
We all sat there, speechless, staring at Harry. I glared at him.
"Because I've always liked her, and so I asked her out once she was single, and I realized I didn't like her, I realized I loved her." He finished, kissing my forehead. I smiled at him and I felt my cheeks grow hot.
Fred turned toward his twin brother."George, truth or dare?"
"Dare, of course." George happily said.
"I dare you to run outside of the portrait hole, naked."
I let out a chuckle, as George began to stand up. "Fine." He said, beginning to pull his shirt off.
"WOAH, HOLD YOUR HORSES THERE!" I said, as George was about to strip in front of us. "Don't strip in front of us, strip like outside."
We all nodded in agreement. "Fine." George groaned, and exited the portrait hole.
"Who wants to make sure he does the dare?" Ron asked, chuckling.
"I will." Fred said, standing up and exiting the common room.
The four of us sat there, and waited for the return of the twins.
"So Lexi," said Lavender. "How was your kiss with Harry?"
I glared at her. I was really pissed off at Lavender that goes without saying.
"Yeah, Lexi. How was it?" Harry asked with a smirk. I growled quietly.
"Boring!" I shot back, giving them both death glares. Ron chuckled.
"Sorry, mate." Ron said, trying to hold back laughter.
We were all quiet, trying to hear George, but we were unsuccessful. Then both Weasley twins came in, both fully clothed, Fred had a superior smile on his face, and George was an unnatural shade of red.
I covered my mouth with my hand. "Merlin, George, I've never seen you that shade of red before." I said with a laugh."Did you get caught?" I asked as everyone broke out in fits of giggles. George just sat down, and looked at the ground. Fred nodded, still smiling hugely.
"It's not real Truth or Dare unless you get a detention out of it." Fred said with a laugh.
"George." I started "Who caught you?"
George was quiet for a few moments, then spat out one word. "McGonagall."
We all laughed. "Well it's your turn." I said threw laughs.
"Lexi, Truth or Dare?" He asked with an evil smirk on his face.
"Truth."
"How did it feel when Harry kissed you?"
It all went silent, and I looked him straight in the eye and said "It felt boring."
"Oh, dear Lexi, I can tell when you are lying." George said with a smile.
"How!" I asked with concern.
"Well I know now."
"I never admitted to anything." I defended.
"You didn't need to admit it, I could see it in your eyes. So now you must do a dare."
I gulped; I was really going to hate him after this. George stopped to think, pretending to stroke an invisible beard. I rolled my eyes, crossing my arms impatiently. "Well?"
George's eye lit up, and a smile was now on his face. "Since I had to run outside naked, then I dare you to..hm...maybe I don't know, strip down for us."
My eyes widened. "W—what?" I asked in disbelief.
"You heard me, but only until you're in your undergarments and until the end of the game you must stay that way." He said with an evil grin, I glared.
It's just a dare. I thought mentally. I took a breath and stood up, and took of my t-shirt revealing a black lace bra and I took off my short showing my black panties. I sat back down on the ground and noticed all the guys looking at me. I groaned.
"Happy, George?"
"Not as happy as young Harry looks over there." He said with a smile, jerking his head toward Harry's direction. I groaned, and hid my face in my hands.
I looked up from my hands."I really hate you, George." I said, glaring at him. I was starting to hate this game, and regretted agreeing to play.
"It's your turn, Lexi." Ron said, staring at me. I rolled my eyes.
"Ron, Truth or Dare?" I asked.
"Truth." He said with uncertainty.
I looked over my shoulder at George. "Do you know when he is lying, too?" I asked.
"Lexi, don't insult me. He's my brother. Of course I do." George answered. I looked at Fred, who was continuing to observe my mostly naked body.
"You look very happy over there, Ron. Do you like my choice of clothing at the moment?" I asked. Ron gulped, and gave a nervous look at Lavender, who was steaming.
"N-No." He stuttered.
The twins stood up and pointed at Ron."LIAR!" Fred and George called out at the same time. Lavender stood up and slapped Ron, she stormed up to her dorm.
"Good riddens." I said. "Now, Ron you must perform a dare for lying." I told him. I tried to think of a good dare but I couldn't, then George whispered an idea in my ear. I smiled, and laughed.
"Ron, your dare is to kiss Hermione."
Ron looked at Hermione then me, with a cold look. Hermione was blushing a bit. "Well, look at the time." Ron said, looking at an invisible watch on his wrist. "'Night everyone." He told us, before rushing up the stairs.
"Coward!" I yelled at him.
"Then there were three." Hermione said, hugging her knees to her chest.
"Yeah, so since Ron bailed. I'll ask...Harry. Truth or dare?"
"Dare." Said Harry courageously.
"I dare you to kiss Hermione." I said, not able to think of anything better. Harry, pretending to be fearless, bent forward and kissed Hermione.
"How was it, Harry?" I asked with a laugh.
"Not nearly as fun as kissing you." He said smiling; he didn't know when to stop, did he? Maybe, I should just put duct tape on his mouth, hm...yeah that would work perfectly fine.
I curled up closer to Fred, but then felt weird because I was still only wearing my bra and panties.
Hermione was a deep shade of red, and was getting up.
"I'm going to bed. Good night, Lexi." She said, reaching forward to give me a hug, then made a face and walked the other way.
I looked at the remaining people. Fred, George, and Harry. This should be quite fun or terrible.
"Your turn, Harry." I muttered, not sure if I wanted to keep playing, but was not going to wimp out like everyone else did.
"Lexi, Truth or Dare?"
"Isn't that against the rules? Asking someone who just asked you? And isn't odd everyone is asking me only!" I asked, crossing my arms across my chest.
"There isn't a rule book." Harry said smugly.
I groaned. "Dare." I said, I mean com on how much worse can it get?
"Hm, I dare you to I don't know run down the hall, like that." He said to me, an evil smile spread across his face as he pointed to my 'clothing'.
"Fine." I said fearlessly. I stood up and made my way to portrait hole, the boys following behind me.
"Please don't let me get caught." I said to myself quietly. I took a deep breath then made a quick dash down the hall, and back in flash. I held onto Harry's shoulder breathing heavily.
"Damn your fast." He said.
"I was on my school track team before." I said catching my breath.
We then made our way back to the common room, and sat back down on the floor in a circle.
I looked at Harry who had a satisfied grin on his face. "Harry truth or dare?"
"Woah, wait. Why do you guys always ask each other and not us?" I heard Fred ask from beside me.
"Because Fred, they love torturing each other." His twin explained.
"Harry will ask one of you guys next, okay?" The twins nodded at me.
"Dare." Harry repeated again.
"I dare you to go down to the dungeons and ask Snape if he is a virgin."
Fred and George laughed. "We taught her well." George said with a laugh.
We all filed out of the common room, Fred and George shielding me, because I was still lacking clothes. We hid around the corner and watched Harry knock nervously on Snape's office door.
The door swung open, revealing Snape in his black cloak."What is it, Potter?" Snape asked coldly.
"I was just wondering, sir. Are you a virgin?" Harry asked in a curious tone. Snape's eyes widened in surprise, and then they were blazing with anger.
Fred and George put their hands over my mouth to keep my laughing from being heard.
"Detention, tomorrow night." Snape said through gritted teeth, and was closing the door.
"But wait! You didn't answer my question!" Harry called, but the door was slammed to a close before Snape could respond.
We ran back to the common room. Harry and I gave the twins a couple of truth, and a couple of dares. About after one in the morning Fred and George announced they were going to bed, so I assumed the game was over. I kissed Fred goodnight.
"George said you were lying." Harry stated. "How did you feel when you kissed me?"
I looked at him for a minute; he was waiting for an answer. I put on my shorts, and grabbed my shirt."You just don't know when to stop, do you?" I asked, annoyed.
Harry shrugged, I tried to push passed him, but he grabbed my elbow. Suddenly I felt Harry's lips on mine once more. I thought in my head it was wrong, that I was with Fred. But the kiss just felt so right. His hands ran through my messy hair, feeling him pull me closer. Harry pulled away and smiled at me. I just frowned, feeling horrible, and guilty.
"Why'd you do that?" I asked, knowing it was partly my fault. "This is wrong, Harry. We're just friends."
"Are we Lexi?"
"YES! We are! I love Fred, and you just have to except that, stop trying to make me feel something everytime you surpise kiss me and stop tempting me!" I told him angrily.
"So you're tempted?" He said smirking.
I felt my jaw tighten, practically making my chin go numb and I groaned loudly. I stomped up the stairs, and slammed my dorm room door behind me.
Stupid Harry, makes everything so damn complicated. Why couldn't he let me be? Always have to reel me back in when I'm just starting get away. Bloody hell.
