Chapter 7: Beginning Prank Week, Third Prank Day

James Point of View:

I woke up at 8 o'clock. Louis would be awake and Fred would stand up in 30 minutes. I stretched and noticed that it is nicer to wake up with George on my side. I smiled at that memory. With her I got the nice warm feeling inside me. After I got ready I made my way through the Common Room to get myself breakfast. On the Gryffindor table I could see Louis and Rose having a conversation and on the Slytherin table Al and Lily were sitting with Scorpius Malfoy and Linda Zabini. I made my way to my best friend and sat down next to him. As I put lots of food on my plate I wondered where George was. Normally she would be sitting here and waiting for us. We had classes today. First thing today would be History of Magic at 9 o'clock. I smiled that was perfect we could sleep a little in the lesson. Louis would make notes and George would just sit there and looking at the blackboard. Someone was sliding in the bench beside me and I turned to look who it was. Fred and George had arrived and Fred was sitting now on my left. I looked up to George who looked a little out of breath but otherwise she looked normally.

"Where were you? I thought you are awake at 6 o'clock." I asked her and filled her plate with the food.

"I was awake but you know also that I like to run in the morning and I had taken Fluffy with me and Hagrid was outside and we talked. As he said I had to head up I looked at my clock and saw that it was already late." She shrugged her shoulders and ate her breakfast. The owls had already arrived and she took the Daily Prophet from Rose and began to read.

"Hey! That is mine!" Rose said but George just looked over the paper stuck her tongue out and disappeared behind them again. My dear little cousin just sighed and got a book out.

After we were all ready we went to the classroom from Binns. During the two hours Fred and I tried to throw so many paper balls at the head from a Ravenclaw guy as much as possible. The next class was charms were Flitwick was expecting us.

"I want you to learn a few healing spells. In the O.W.L.s you will need them..." I didn't listened to him anymore. But George was sitting on the edge on her chair. I know she wanted to be a Healer. She would be the best I was sure. I remembered how we met her. In the train compartment she was so quiet that we totally forgot her. But after her help with Filches office and the prank I couldn't be without her anymore. She was so important to all of us. We were friends after the first prank but she was always so quiet at first. But the day were we got best friend was really clear in my mind.

Flashback:

The three of us were totally nervous. Today was the Try-Outs for our Quidditch team. We all wanted to make it and went down without George. As she wasn't down after 15 minutes we looked after her. We found her standing across from three girls who sneered down at her. Fred saw her first.

"Hey, George! There you are, we thought maybe you'd ditched us! You know today will be the try-outs. Don't you want to cheer for us?" Louis put his arm over her shoulders.

"Don't you like us anymore, Georgie dearest?" Fred said and she laughed. It wasn't her normal one. It was like she tried not to scare us. Well I was scared now. The three girls looked at us as we would jump them every moment.

"Who are you?" I asked them. I didn't liked the fact that George was not herself. I turned at her and saw unshed tears. Now I knew that something was wrong. I got angry. My mom always said I got the temperament from the Weasley side of the family.

"And what did you do to her?!" Out of the corner of my eyes I saw Louis and Fred looking at her too. Fred and I moved so that she was behind us.

"Who are you?" The smallest girl asked.

"We are her best friends, and anyone who makes her cry will have to face our pranks!" I rolled my eyes at the childish response from Fred but saw a smile on the face from George.

"We have the misfortune to be related to her." One of the older girls spat out. I could barely control my anger.

"Maybe you have the same blood but she don't belong to you anymore. She is now a member of the best family in the world: The Potter and Weasley family." I said proudly. Then the girls went away and I looked at her. She started to cry and I hugged her. Louis and Fred followed and we were a wall for the world. We exchanged a look. And we all were sure that we wouldn't want to see her cry again.

"James! Come we have to get to Potions! Or Professor Nott will give us detention and deduct points!" George had shaken me out of my memories. I nodded and followed her to the dungeon. Something was different with her. She had changed from the small and shy girl to a... well she was still small but she wasn't so shy anymore. Yesterday were she was fighting with us I thought that this was the best feeling ever. Seeing her smile so carefree was great. Potions went quickly over and soon we were sitting in the Great Hall for lunch.

"Hey George I wanted to ask if the date is still on." I choked on my food. WHAT! She had a date with Logan Thomas? I turned around to see her smile up at him. Something deep inside me went crazy as I saw the brat looking at her like she was some piece of meat. This wasn't good. And when did they agreed on a date? I saw over to Fred who looked like I was feeling.

"Of course. Did they have set a Hogsmead week-end already?" She asked and I felt like someone had hit me in the stomach.

"Well yeah in three weeks would be one. It's early this year isn't it?" I didn't want to hear her answer and turned out the conversation. As the scumbag was finally gone I turned to my best girl friend.

"You got a date?" Louis asked her.

"Yeah. I told you that I fell down the table?" We all nodded.

"Well I fell in the lap from Logan and he asked me out!" She looked so happy but that didn't soothed me.

"Why are you going out with him?!" I hissed at her. I didn't even know why I was so angry. But the look on her face made me mad.

"What?" She asked quietly.

"YOU CAN'T GO OUT WITH HIM! HE IS A PLAYER!" I cried out. It was true he was as bad as me and Fred. She got angry too. The whole hall listened now.

"SO WHAT? YOU ARE A PLAYER TOO! DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY GIRLS I HAD TO FIGHT OFF BECAUSE YOU DUMPED THEM? HOW MANY TRIED TO ATTACK ME BECAUSE OFF YOU AND FRED? I DON'T WANT TO HEAR THAT YOU ARE CRITICIZE HIM WHEN YOU ARE THE SAME! AND WHY ARE YOU SO ANGRY ANYWAY?"

"I JUST DON'T WANT HIM TO GO OUT WITH YOU! DO YOU WANT TO BECOME ONE OF HIS SLUTS?!" I knew this was too much. She looked with hurt in her eyes at me.

"Why? James please. Please say me WHY THE BLOODY HELL I SHOULD LISTEN TO YOU WHEN YOU CALL ONE OF YOUR BEST FRIEND A SLUT!" She got angry again. I couldn't answer her. I didn't even know why I was so angry.

"You know I thought you would be happy for me. This is my first date. And I will not let it get ruined because you have some sort of grunch against him. Best friends would be there for their friend. Even if they don't like it they would be there. And if something bad would happen. They would comfort each other. Maybe we aren't the friends I thought we were." And with that she went away. Louis and Fred gave me a dirty look and in this moment our prank started. The clothes from everyone changed. The Gryffindors wore Slytherin green and silver, while the Slytherins wore now gold and red. Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw had changed too. A banner came from the ceiling.

"HOUSE UNITY! We are one school let's behave like that!" It was the idea from George. She was always so peaceful and saw in everyone the best.

"Maybe we should first work on the peace in the own house." Fred said and with that my other best friends turned away and ran after George. I sighed and sat down, my head in my hands.
