Monday
"Hey Bells!"
Bellina turned around to see Rose Weasley hurrying toward her.
"Hey Rose. What's up?"
"I just wanted to let you know that Uncle Harry said it was okay for you and Scorpius to stay over during the holidays."
"Awesome. That'll let Draco and Astoria enjoy their wedding anniversary in Italy in peace."
"Shouldn't you and Scorp be with them?"
"Nah. This trip was a present from me and Scorp."
Rose smiled.
"That's sweet. Oh one more thing."
"Yea?"
"Operation revenge of the bitchy Slytherin is a go."
Bellina smiled.
"Perfect."
"What the fucking hell!" Steven Dragonii was frustrated to say the least. James looked over at him from his bed. The two boys had sort of made up but things were still tense.
"What?"
"All my frickin boxers are gone!"
James snorted.
"Maybe your girlfriend needed knickers." He said. There was an acid undertone to his voice.
"Leave her alone James." Steven responded tiredly. He continued to search through his drawers in the vain hope of finding his underpants.
"She's been acting weird lately."
"That's nice."
"Why do you hate her so much?"
James sighed.
"We've had this argument before. I don't hate her and I'm not going into this right now."
The dorm room door opened and a pair of nervous looking second years entered.
"Whadya want?" James drawled.
"Um we were asked to get confirmation on a rumor." One of the boys mumbled.
"You write for the Hogwarts Gossip?"
"No. Some Ravenclaw writers asked us."
"What rumor?" Steven asked still looking through his drawers.
"They want confirmation that Steven Dragonii sleeps with a blankie."
"What!" Steven exploded. The two boys backed away, fright evident on their faces. James was fighting the urge to laugh.
"I think you better tell the Ravenclaws that the answer is no."
The two boys nodded at James hurriedly then scampered out of the room.
"What the hell was that all about?" Steven asked. He was seething.
"Beats me bro."
That night at dinner the newest edition of the Hogwarts Gossip held the following article:
7th Year Gryffindor Student Steven Dragonii Sleeps with a Blankie rumor confirmed.
Steven stalked out of the Great Hall with the entire school laughing behind him. Rose Weasley looked over at the Ravenclaw writers and smiled.
Tuesday
"How's the Blankie Dragonii?" a 5th year Gryffindor called out as James and Steven made their way through the common room.
"Fuck off." Steven snapped in response.
Lilly came in through the portrait just as the two boys reached it, a look of mild disgust on face.
"I wouldn't go out there if I were you Steven." She said cryptically as she passed them.
Steven looked at her in confusion before stepping out onto the 7th floor. The corridor was crowded and everyone was in an uproar. There was laughing and looks of disgust all around.
"What the hell?"
James stepped over to a pair of Gryffindors. When he came back he was laughing.
"Who the hell did you piss off lately?"
"What?"
"Your missing boxers are currently all over the school. A pair of Slytherins counted them all. There's a couple hundred of your boxers decorating Hogwarts."
"I don't even own that many."
"Well then they've been multiplying cause each boxer has your name on it in bright pink lettering."
Steven stomped down the corridor fuming while James followed laughing.
That night at night at dinner Steven was rushed to the hospital wing. In the middle of dinner he suddenly started puking and couldn't seem to stop. Several people laughed as James tried to help him out. No one noticed the box of Weasley Wizarding Wheezes puking pastilles on the bench next to a smiling Lilly Potter.
Wednesday
"You just have not been having a good week huh?" James asked as he and Steven headed to their dorm to get their brooms. It would be their last practice before break.
"No. And what's worse is Bellina will hardly talk to me."
James shrugged. He was pretty sure he knew why but he wasn't gonna say anything. That was Bellina's problem.
"This doesn't look good."
James looked up. Rose Weasley was hurrying toward them looking upset.
"Steven!" she called, "Someone's wrecked your stuff."
"What!"
"The dorm is an absolute wreck. Hurry."
Steven stared in horror. His personal things had been thrown all over the 7th year boys' dormitory. Most notably was his broom, or at least what was left of it. The pieces were on the floor and it looked like it had gone through a paper shredder.
"What the fuck?"
Steven kneeled on the floor gathering all the pieces together.
"Where's my wand?" he demanded feeling at his pocket. He knew he couldn't fix it but it was worth a try. Lilly Potter handed him his wand.
"Reparo."
Nothing happened. At least nothing happened to his broom. His wand on the other hand turned into a rubber chicken. Steven looked at it in amazement. Suddenly James started laughing. He was kneeling by Steven's bed.
"What?"
James reached under the bed and pulled out Steven's broom.
"Then what the hell is this?" he asked as everyone started laughing.
No one notice Albus Potter, a Slytherin, place Steven's wand on one of the beds and slip out the door with a nasty little smile on his face.
Thursday
"Every single day this week. And every single damn class today." Steven was once again fuming. Every one of his seats in each class had been covered in muck today. James bit his lip to keep from laughing. After all Steven was his friend even if James was pissed at him. They were heading up to bed after dinner. As they approached the portrait James saw Rose and Scorpius Malfoy talking quietly. Malfoy was holding a box of Weasley's Wizarding Wheezes portable swamp. James mentally shrugged and continued to the dorm. They entered the dorm and stopped short. Steven began letting off a string of curses. James couldn't blame him. His bed was covered in the same muck his seats had been covered in. It looked like a mini swamp.
"I'm getting tired of this." Steven said warily.
Friday
"I don't get it. What the hell have I ever done to anybody?" Steven complained.
"Beats me." Bellina said quietly.
They were walking towards the Great Hall for dinner. It was the first time all week that they had spent some time together, and despite the past week Steven was happy to be with her. The doors of the Great Hall opened on its own accord as they approached it. Somewhere inside a girl was hysterically crying. Above the faculty table was a huge moving picture of Steven Dragonii shagging a 5th year Hufflepuff. The teachers were desperately trying to remove it but their spells just kept going through. Steven stared at it in complete horror.
"Hm," Bellina said coldly," I would say that's what you've done to somebody."
She flicked her wand at the picture causing it to disappear in a puff of smoke. Then she looked at Steven.
"I understand this is shocking so I'll just clarify for you. We are through."
Then she turned and walked out of the Great Hall leaving the cheating arse behind her. James Potter was waiting outside for her.
"So it was you all along?"
"I had help from Scorp, Rose and your siblings." She responded. James nodded suddenly remembering the box of portable swamp.
"How did you get that picture up there?"
"It was a projection from my memory."
James nodded again. Then he walked away, his shoulders shaking from silent laughter.
Read and Review or else Bellina will be after you next… Thank you very much.
