A/N: I am so sorry for being MIA. I had midterms, and then the PSAT, and so I was extremely busy. Sorry! But here it is. I'm not sure I did the prank justice, but I'll let you guys be the judge of that. Enjoy!


Rose had a brilliant idea.

Well, she always had brilliant ideas. But this was one of her better brilliant ideas.

She had her epiphany in the middle of eating a rather luscious slice of honeydew melon. It was halfway in her mouth, with the juice dripping down her chin and staining her top.

"Rose! Stop eating like James!" Molly hissed and threw her a napkin.

Rose tilted her chin up, and tried to thank Molly, but only succeeded in spraying Molly with drops of juice. "Fank hoo."

"Your-Welcome."

Rose swallowed and said, in a more dignified accent, "I have a way to get back at James and Fred for drawing on Hugo."

"Oh! Spill."

Rose excitedly outlined her plan to Mol in hushed whispers, occasionally pausing for breath.

"Sounds brilliant."

They set out to prank the prank-masters. Mols snuck a few packets of honey from the jar next to the waffle-maker as they were leaving the breakfast area.

Then, Rose stole the key for James' room from Teddy's jacket, which was conveniently hanging on the back of his chair.

The two excused themselves from breakfast early and went up to James and Fred's room and quietly closed the door behind them.

"Which bed is James'?"

"Dunno. Maybe we'd better put it on both to make sure."

"Yeah, okay."

They carefully tore open the packets of honey and spilled them on all four pillows. The pillowcases were cream-colored to begin with, so the honey wasn't really visible. Then, they stood back and admired their work.

"Excellent. Now let's execute part two."

Rose ran and hid in the bathroom, under the sink, while Molly ran out of the room and into their own to fluff up Rose's bed to make it look like she was sleeping. Then, she grabbed a magazine and attempted to look casual.

About five minutes later, James and Fred strolled in. Rose could hear murmured conversation, and then a loud creak of bedsprings.

Someone had taken the bait.

And then-

"Bloody hell! What is this, all over my hair? Merlin's pants, it's all sticky and gross!"

Rose had to stuff her fist in her mouth to keep from giving herself away, she was laughing so hard. James' voice sounded unusually shrill.

"Ugh, this stuff is worse than your Dad's new test product, Freddie." James complained as he ran into the bathroom and hopped into the shower without taking his clothes off, for which Rose was eternally grateful. She didn't know how to Scourgify her brain.

Rose could hear the water rushing now, and James singing off-key. She strained to hear the door open, a metal click, and then, silence. That meant Molly had come in and whisked Fred away.

Slowly, Rose crept out of her hiding place and rummaged around for the can of shaving cream. Not that James was old enough, he carried it around just to show off.

Rose quietly shook the can and stealthily approached the shower door. Oh, revenge was sweet.

"I can see that you want to, and darlin' believe me, I really do but AAHHHHHHHHH! Rose, you stupid idiot!" James shrieked at an extremely high pitch.

Rose dissolved into giggles at James, half naked and covered in shaving cream, screaming like a little girl.

Molly had perfect timing. She burst into the room, half-carrying, half-dragging Fred, who was bound and gagged.

"We out-pranked the prank masters!" Mol said, and high-fived Rose.


So...how was it? Good? Bad? Let me know! Also, I have a challenge up, if anyone's interested, there's a link on my profile.
