Skin Deep • b. weasley (discontinued)

Traitor

I was finally free of the medical tent, they spent 30 minutes just cleaning the blood so they should properly see the damage. I need to shower and change into clean robes so we can get pictures according to Stiles. So I'm going to do just that.

"Okay smile." The photographer says for what feels like the hundredth time. "Okay we're all done here. Congratulations." We take our leave.

"Going back to the Weasley tent?" Stiles asked as he put his arm around my shoulders.

"Yup. Gotta rub my win in Ron's face."

"Our win."

"Same thing Stiles." I say smiling. "Besides 11 out of 17 belong to me, my win."

"Whatever I got more than Mullet though."

"Yes you did." We walk into the Weasley tent to be bombarded with cheers and hugs. "Wait wait where's Ron?" I ask as Ginny attaches herself to me so I have to carry her around.

"Krum caught the snitch." He says dreamily, holding his Bulgaria hat.

"I think your in love Ron." Ginny says and the twins start singing.

"He still lost Ron." I say shaking my head. "But you know who won? Me." Ginny laughs and then Charlie comes and hugs me lifting me up.

"You did it!" He bellows and another round of cheers starts. "To you." He says and hands me a cup of fire whiskey.

"Thank you Charles." I say and chug the drink. "Nyphadora did you see, I won."

"I did see, don't call me that." My cousin replies as she too drinks. There's music coming from the radio Arthur brought and we danced and drank to celebrate our win. The twins come and spin me around a couple times. Before we settle down and start to relax.

"Well guess I'm done with quidditch now." I say my head resting on Bill's shoulder.

"What do you mean?" Ginny asked me.

"I've played and won the World Cup, I see no reason to keep playing." I tell her shrugging.

"But you can't leave the team." Renee protested, Ginny nodded along with her.

"I didn't say for sure, but it's an idea." I say trying to diffuse the tension. "Besides I always wanted to do something with the tattoo charm I made back in Hogwarts."

"I forgot about that." Charlie says. "Do you still have that tattoo?"

"Well obviously Charlie, they're permanent." I tell him sitting up and pulling up my sleeve so he can see the tattoo of my original broom, a comet that flies around my bicep depending on my heartbeat.

"Wicked." The twins say and look at me.

"Not until your 18." I tell them, they sigh. Outside the tent people start shouting and there are faint cheers.

"Seems Ireland's have a good old time." Natalie says.

"As they should be." Stiles says smiling with pride. I get up to go see what's happening and I realize that's not Ireland. I take my wand out of my pocket and run towards the crowds, I heard Tonks behind me, a true auror. I see a death eater heading towards a child and shoot a binding curse at them.

"Hey, do you know where your parents are?" The boy shakes his head. "Alright then let's get you somewhere safe." I look at my cousin and see Renee and Stiles with her. "Renee take him to the woods and if you see any other kids get them too." She nods and runs off with Stiles in tow.

I turn back towards the crow and start shooting disarming spell at the few death eaters I have a clear shot at. I turn trying to see if anyone needs immediate help and bump into a death eater.
