"Hailey said she's going to get a restraining order on me if I don't leave her alone," James said as he collapsed into his seat beside Tyler in the compartment.

"Well, yeah, I mean, she's won her money," Fred said with a smirk that made all three look at him with raised eyebrows.

"OK, spill," Dell said wanting to know what all the smirks and smiles were about when the mention of James and Hailey came up.

"Well, I know what James is like, so as soon as you guys made the bet I went and told the twins," Fred said, watching as James face changed to one of shock.

"She knew? The whole time, about the bet," James asked trying to process this factor.

"Yep, and she and Kailey made a bet of their own. Since Kailey already had a boyfriend, they decided it would be Hailey, and she said she would go out with you, but bet she would be the one to break up with you and have you chasing after her. Roxanne heard about it and got in on it too, Hailey won twenty gallons, ten from each." Fred said amused at the look on James' face.

"She – I – but you – some best friend you are!" James said getting up and slamming the door closed behind him making the glass break.

"Come back in here," Dell said, rolling her eyes as she fixed the glass. "You won your ten gallons thanks to her bet, did you not? You wouldn't have otherwise. Finally, the world makes sense again, I knew she wouldn't go out with you for real," She finished ducking the book that was thrown at her.

"So," Dell said as she leaned against the wall, her feet resting on her boyfriend's lap, not so happy that he made her loose ten gallons. "Has Matt asked Dominique out yet?"

"What?" All three boys said at the same time, Tyler in confusion, Fred and James in outrage.

"Has Matt asked Dom out yet? I mean, he's liked her since at least last year, I'd say it's pretty obvious. Don't know whether she likes him, she's a pretty closed book, for all I know she could like Hailey," Dell said, opening one eye to see the boys reaction.

"Dominique is gay?" Only the two cousins said it that time, and Dell rolled her eyes as she closed them again.

"First of all, the term is lesbian for girls, and no, not that I know of, though for a while there I thought that was what was up with Roxanne and why she was acting so weird," Dell said with a shrug.

"Roxanne's gay!" The two once more said at the same time, this time Tyler knowing that fact to be incorrect. Dell gave a frustrated sigh.

"No, I said I thought that was what was up with her, but it wasn't, I was pretty far off actually," Dell mused making sure not to glance at Tyler who she could tell without even opening her eyes was uncomfortable with the topic of conversation.

"Wait, you know what's up with Roxanne?" Fred asked starrring at his girlfriend in shock. Dell froze realizing what she'd said.

"Well….ummmm….." Dell said knowing she had no way to cover up her mistake.

"What?" Asked James leaning forward as Fred stared at her, as she opened her eyes she saw out of the corner of them that Tyler was staring at the ceiling.

"I believe it's none of your business," Dell said before quickly changing the topic. "So, who do you think is going to be Quidditch Captain next year, I personally think it will be me." She got the reaction she was hoping for.

"Oh, no way, it will so be me!" The two said simultaneously as they had been often doing. If they didn't look so different, they could have been twins.

The conversation veered away from Roxanne and the going ons at Hogwarts as the train took them to yet another summer vacation, following it their last year at Hogwarts.
