"I swear...you two should be chained and incapacitated for the rest of your Hogwarts years." Vic said, gingerly picking up a jumper and repairing the singed fabric with Ted's wand.

Apparently this counted as an emergency. Thus the wand.

"Noooo!" Fred said, dramatically placing a hand on his heart. "My chair in Minnie's office will be given away!"

James gave a melodramatic snuffle. "And just think of the prankster legacy. It'll be RUINED!"

They both collapsed into mock tears, holding onto each other for support.

"Oh, honestly." Rose huffed. "What a loss. You should be happy. You're the first idiots to get yourself your own chairs in the headmaster's office. It says so right here." she jabbed her finger at her New and Revised Edition of Hogwarts: A History.

"Really? Where? Oh lookie, Jamie-boy, it's official! We've been published as the greatest pranksters of all time!" he scrambled over the seat and plucked the book out of Rose's hands.

Fred and James started eagerly scanning the pages, looking for their names. "Rosie? I don't see our names here." Fred said after a while.

"You have to look really carefully. It's charmed and has one of those finder-spells on it."

"You mean the one where you have to read the entire page and then it pops up in a bubble at the bottom?"

"Why, yes, James, what a surprise! I wasn't aware you'd ever opened a book in your life!"

"Har har har. you're so bloody witty, Rose, why don't you have your own talk show on the Wireless?"

Fred turned to him. "Mate, that was really lame."

"I know. Find the sodding bubble already!"

Ted rolled his eyes and pulled up in front of a Muggle fast food restaurant. "Okay. " He said, turning around and looking at everyone.

"FOOD!" Fred and James said, lunging for the door.

"Oh, no you don't." Vic said, and lightening-quick, magically locking the door. ""Pleeeeeease, Vicky, we're going to die of starvation." James said, pulling a puppy dog face.

"Oh shut up."

"Listen up. Al, will you please stop with the Exploding Snap? Muggle cards usually don't spontaneously combust, remember? Right, so what does everyone want?"

He was immediately met with several voices at several pitches all demanding different things.

"Okay, okay! Forget it. I'm just getting chicken sandwiches and lemonade for everyone."

No one argued with Ted when he used that tone.

"Now remember, no doing anything normal Muggles wouldn't, okay?" Vic reminded them as Ted pulled up to the drive-thru.

"Rose?" He mumbled. "How do you work this thing?"

She unbuckled herself and climbed into the front seat, squishing herself in Teddy's lap and rolling down the window. She stuck her head outside.

"Hello, yes, I would like thirteen chicken sandwiches, thirteen lemonades, and one apple pie please."

The cashier popped her gum and responded in a whiny voice.

"Oh, and make that to go." Rose added, and she withdrew herself from hanging out halfway from the camper.

"Rose, by going into a drive-thru, isn't it guaranteed that we are going?" Mol asked as she pulled her into the backseat.

"Yeah, but I wanted to annoy the crazy Muggle with blue hair."

"Hey! There's nothing wrong with blue hair!" Ted called.

"Yes, but yours is natural. They put all sorts of potions and whatnot to make theirs that way."

"Oh."

There was silence for a few minutes before James burst out, "We never were in here! You just wanted us to read a sodding book!", waving Hogwarts a History crazily above his head.

"Yep," Rose said smugly, and waved her outstretched palm under Mol's nose. "Pay up, Mols."

"And you bet on us?" Fred asked, outraged.

"My dear cousin, you must do what you want others to do to you." She said sweetly, tweaking his nose.

"This calls for revenge." James growled. He reached around Fred and grabbed Al's rucksack, rummaging in it mindlessly.

"Food's here!" Vic announced, pulling the sacks in from the window and distributing them.

James and Fred were very carefully building a house out of the cards, and right when Fred placed the last card on top, it exploded with a massive POP!

There was utter silence for exactly two seconds. Then, everyone started talking at once.

Ted: "What did you do, James?"

Victoire, Molly, Dom, and Luce just shrieked.

Hugo and Albus choked on their lemonade and had to be thumped by Luce and Dom to ensure their survival.

Loudest of all, was Rose. "MY HAIR! MY HAIR IS ON FIRE! OH, I WILL MURDER YOU, JAMES!"

...And they hadn't even reached yet.
