Chapter Five: Pranks, Balloons, and Jinxes Part 1
The next morning, I woke up to find that George had fallen asleep in bed with me and his arm was over my body. I heard someone suppress a giggle. I turned my head and saw Harry, Fred and Ron were looking at us from George's bed.
"Oi, what's so funny?" I asked looking at my brother.
"Nothing sis," Harry said trying not to laugh.
George stirred beside me. He jumped up when he realized that we were talking. He saw his brothers and Harry staring at him. He turned a bright shade of red. He grabbed his clothes and walked off.
"So, um, how'd you sleep?" I heard Fred ask George, following him.
I turned to glare at my brother and Ron. "Is there something the two of you wanted?"
"We heard that you and Pansy got into it yesterday and that you were in the hospital wing. I wanted to make sure that you were okay, sis," Harry said.
"Yea, and so are you going to deny that there's something going on between you and my brother?"
"I had a bad dream last night. I didn't want to fall asleep alone. I know that when Harry and I were young, we would fall asleep with each other after having a bad dream. It was my comfort zone."
"You had a bad dream, sis?" Harry asked, looking at me curiously.
"Yeah, did you?"
"Yeah, but I don’t remember what it was about. Do you remember it?"
"No, all I remember from it was a blinding green light."
"Hey love," Fred said, sitting down next to me, trying to hug me.
"Oi, Fred. Bugger off," I told him, pushing him away.
"Bloody hell, how can you tell us apart?"
"I dunno, I guess it's 'cause I'm a twin. Now if you boys will excuse me, I'm going to go change and see if I can find Madam Pomfrey."
I grabbed my clothes from yesterday and headed to the bathroom to change. When I was dressed, I went to go find Madam Pomfrey. I wanted to make sure that I could leave the hospital wing. I couldn't find her, so I went back to my bed and saw that Harry, Ron, Fred, and George were huddled together whispering.
"Secrets, secrets are no fun. Unless, you share with everyone," I told them childishly.
"Did you find Madam Pomfrey?" Harry asked breaking away from the group.
"No, I guess I'll have to wait until she shows up. You guys go on ahead and eat breakfast. I'll just sit here and read my book."
I sat down on my bed, getting out Twilight.
Harry looked at me, wanting to say something, but couldn't find the words. "Go," I said. "I'll be fine. It's not like Pansy will try to hurt me again. I'll be ready next time."
Harry turned around and walked with Ron out of the hospital wing.
"You, too," I told George. Fred grabbed him by the arm and dragged him away.
When they were gone, I grabbed a pen and my diary. I flipped to the end and began writing.
Ideas for Pranks:
Charm the dorm so that it's cold to everyone else but me (talk with Fred and George on that one) Turn Draco's hair black and make it so that he can't turn it back unless I want it changed back *x out this part-Charm quills so that they float unless someone is holding them* Make Babbling Beverage and put in everyone's drinks during breakfast. (except for Harry's)
I was writing my next idea for a prank when Madam Pomfrey walked in. "Good morning, Ms. Potter. How did you sleep?"
"I slept about as normal as I usually do. Am I free to go?"
"Yes, you are. But I want you to come back if you have any headaches, dizziness, nausea, or vomiting. You had a mini-concussion, so I would like to keep an eye on you for the next couple of days. But Professor Dumbledore wishes that you attend your classes. He's already told your professors about your predicament. So, if they notice anything, they will send you to me," Madam Pomfrey said, walking off.
I grabbed my book bag and ran up to my dorm to change my clothes. I was glad that I didn't see Pansy in the dormitory. I don't know what I would've done if I had seen her.
I changed my skirt, camisole, and tights. I put on black tights with lime green polka dots, a lime green camisole, and a fresh skirt, rolling it up like last time. When I walked down to the Great Hall for breakfast, I noticed that George had yet to make it to his table. I went over to Harry, "Hey, how'd you sleep last night?"
Harry looked at me and said, "Why do you ask?"
"No reason," I replied quickly, averting my eyes from his emerald green ones.
He got up and whispered in my ear, "Are you having nightmares again?"
"Yes, it's all so confusing."
"Yea, I'm having them, too. Don't worry, they're just dreams."
"Yea, I know. Well, I better go eat before the food gets cold."
I headed over to my table and sat down next to Pansy. I smiled and said to her coldly, "Next time you touch me, you won't be alive to tell the tale." I turned to my food and began eating.
"Why you little-"she began.
I whipped my wand out and said, "Petrificus Totalus." Pansy froze in her spot, I leaned closer to her and said, "Next time, it won't be a measly little spell. I won't be afraid to use an unforgivable." I walked off towards my first class for the day. I wasn't paying attention to where I was going because I bumped into someone.
"Sorry," I mumbled. I looked up to see a pair of mischievous, brown eyes looking at me. "Oh, Fred. Sorry… hey, where's your brother?"
Fred grinned wickedly, "Let's be glad that you are no longer in the Great Hall."
"Oi, are you two playing pranks without me?!" I exclaimed.
"Don't worry, you'll get in on the action. We're not done with the prank, this is just the beginning. Now, let's go find our partner in crime." We walked down the hall and headed towards the kitchen. Before we could tickle the pear in the painting, it opened and George walked out. He saw me and his eyes lit up.
"Oh, don't you look at me like that. Why did you not let me in on this prank?" I stuck my finger in his face.
George looked toward his brother, his eyes saying, 'Help me.'
"You know, George. Bella sounds just like our mother when she does that, except for the fact that she was nagging at you for not telling her about the prank and having her help us. Bella, darling, you are the best." Fred leaned in and gave me a kiss on the cheek before walking away, leaving George alone with me.
"So what are you two up to?" I asked George before he too, walked away.
"We jinxed the food so that it moves away from you, whenever you try to pick it up."
"Sweet," I replied. "So what's the next part of the prank? Fred mentioned something about this was only the beginning of the prank."
George began explaining the rest of the prank, while walking me towards my first class. "The next part of the pranks is we're gonna have water balloons randomly drop on people in the hallways. In order to do that, we have to go around right before classes are dismissed and jinx the water balloons to do that. If you have to, say that your going to the hospital wing to get a headache potion."
Before George could continue speaking, Draco came up to us. "Well, well, well. What do we have here? A blood traitor weasel with my girl."
"Shove off Malfoy," I told him. "And for the last time, I AM NOT YOUR GIRL. Don't want to be, never will be, not even in your dreams will I be your girl. So why don't you sod off and go find Pansy." I grabbed George's arm and snuggled up to him, while glaring at Draco. "Now if you'll excuse us."
We stepped around Draco and finished our conversation, making sure that we were whispering so Draco couldn’t hear what we were saying.
