The other Black

Chapter ten.

I look at the sign "Adam's home for orphans". The Christmas holiday started and I had to go back to the orphan house. I can stay at Hogwarts but then I would have got questions about why I don't go home and I not in for that. I open the door and miss Adams I already waiting for me. I completely ignore her but she pulls me back 'where do you think you're going?!' she hit me in my face. 'Walk away like that?! You should be happy that I didn't come to Hogwarts.' She hits me again. 'upstairs now! And I don't want to see you anymore!' I take my trunk and walk to my room. I open the door and look around. I never disliked this room. I had the biggest one of the whole orphan house. I got my own fireplace, my own bathroom, a double bed and a seating area. Not that I ever have friends over to site there but oke. I close the door behind me, start unpacking the stuff I use and put some clothes in the wash. I look at the clock it is half-past six. I walk to my desk and look at the calendar. A smile appears on my face the Haringey Huskies are playing a home game tonight, time to sneak out. I hear a knock on my door when I open it there is standing a tray with a plate and a glass of water. I take it, sit down and start eating. The food isn't horrible but it is better at Hogwarts. After I finished dinner I start looking for my Haringey Huskies sweater. I find him and put it on. it is a warm and nice sweater but not so comfortable as my quidditch jersey the one we wear during practice or in Wood's case all of his free time. It a kind of tradition that you wear your boyfriends practice jersey if he is playing in the quidditch game. Never really understood that but if people like it I would be the last one to stop them. I take one of my ripped jeans ready to go. I check if there is somebody in the hallway when I lock my door. I take my purse and open the window when a loud noise fills my room. There is another loud bang and a lot of dust. Trough the dust I see two gingers standing in my room with a big grin on their face. 'Fred?! George?!' 'Hey Sky' they say in sync. ' what on earth are you two doing here?!' I quickly check if someone is coming. 'also nice to see you' Fred jokes. ' this is an orphan house for girls Fred! Boys are not allowed!' I shake my head laughing. ' you two are real pair of idiots. But let's go' I walk to the window. ' where are we going' George asks ' An Ice Hockey game.' 'A what?' 'I will explain on the way okay?' they nod 'oke now watch and learn.' I sit on the frame, grab the downspout and climb down. The guys repeat it. I walk to the closest bus stop and check when the bus comes which is 5 minutes. ' what is ice hockey Sky?' Fred asks. 'It is a muggle sport. You play it on skates on the ice. you got a rubber disk what is called a puck and you have to shoot the puck in the goal with your stick.' They look ad as if I just learned them how to make a plane. ' come on guys this isn't rocket science, I will explain it better if we are there.' I stand up because the bus stops. ' come on boys.' I step in. ' three tickets please.' I say while I gif the bus driver the money. I walk to the back of the bus so we can site with the three of us. ' how did you even get the idea of coming to the orphan house?' 'well you told us you never really liked it there,' George starts. ' and then George remembered that you once told about the fireplace in your room.' Fred goes on. ' so we tried it out when mom and dad went to bed.' 'you guys are mental.' I laugh. ' but if miss Adams finds out I'm dead.' They laugh thinking I'm joking but I'm not. Miss Adams hates it if there are boys in the house or coming to one of us. One Vincent tried to pick me up. When I returned home she was blazing. She used the Cruciatus Curse on me. She does that often When I'm not listening. The pain never diminishes. 'Sky?' I ear a voice say withs gets me back. 'yeah?' 'you oke?' George asks. I nod. 'why shouldn't I?' 'you just seems far away.' 'oh yeah, that was nothing.' He nods while the bus comes to a stop. I stand up. 'come we are here.' The guys walk behind me and their eyes widen when they see how many people there are. I laugh 'welcome in the muggle world.' We walk to the entrance and both guys are holding my shoulder scared to loos me in the crowd of people. 'hey Skyler good to see you again.' Philip who sites behind the ticket counter. 'Hai Philip it is also good to see you again.' 'one ticket as usually?' 'no, I took two friends so three tickets please.' Philip gives me the tickets good sheets as always. 'thanks Philip' I give him the money and walk towards the hockey ring. I see Fred and George look around them a bit of angst in their eyes. 'It is oke guys just calm down. We are just gonna sit here and watch the game.' They nod. We take a seat and over 10 minutes the players enter the ice. I smile when I see number 9. His name is Finn. He is three years older than me he is 18 now. We played together. We both played in the first youth team. I was there already when I was nine the only girl and Finn was the only one who treated me like one of them. the others didn't until I played the first game with them and I could show what I'm made of. I quit when I went to Hogwarts. Finn's Brother is a muggleborn so Finn was the only one who I could tell about going to Hogwarts. The first Christmas holiday after I went to Hogwarts we meet up a couple of times but then I started to become more rebellious at school and in the orphan house so I wasn't allowed to leave my room any more. That is when the contact and close friendship watered. When I heard he made it to the first team I was so proud. I tried to come to so many games as possible just but that wasn't easy. The horn sounds what means that the games begins. I still love the sound of a stick hitting the puck. I look at Fred and George whose eyes are focused on the puck. I got them a little flyer with the basis of Hockey. The rules the player and stuff like that. They seemed to enjoy their selves and I'm happy about that. They are my best friends and I don't know what I should do without them. the evening flies by and before we know the game finished. The Haringey Huskies won and the three of us had an amazing time. We walk towards the exit when I hear someone yell my name. I turn around and see Finn. Still in his hockey equipment. I run towards him and hug him. He lifts me up and spins around. 'it is so good to see you Sky.' 'it's good to see you to Finn' I laugh and he puts me down again. 'you played so well. Congrats on your win!' 'thank you, how is Hogwarts?' 'fantastic I want you to meet some people.' I turn around 'Fred! George! Come here!' they walk to us. I see the look on George's face almost looking jealous. 'guys this is Finn we used to play hockey together. And Finn this are Fred and George my best friends.' Finn gives both guys a hand but George seems less interest. Finn and I talk for a bit when the twins point out that the bus is leaving soon. I say a quick goodbye to Finn and promise him to send him a letter soon. We take the bus home and when we are back in my room the twins leave. The days after the day twins came to visit me every evening. Today its Wednesday and the twins are here again. We are so busy talking and laughing that I'm not noticing Charlotte is listening at the door. The moment she hears the voice of Fred she runs down to get miss Adams. I'm laughing about something George said when the door burst open. A very angry looking miss Adams is standing I the doorway. For a moment I stop breathing. 'Fred George go. Now' 'oh no they are not going anywhere' miss Adams says and she takes out her wand. Fred and George get up making their selves ready to leave. Miss Adams walks closer and point her wand at them. I jump in between. 'no-... please don't hurt them.' 'get out the way she says with an angry voice. I shake my head. 'no!' she waves her want and a deep cut appears on my cheek. 'I say it one last time Black. Get out the way!' 'no! Fred George go!' I see Fred disappear in the fireplace. 'CRUCIO' Miss Adams yells. The curse hit my body. I scream out of pain while I collapse on the ground. I can see George shocked face just before he disappears.     

A/N  

hello guys, 

I'm sorry for not updating for a while. I have been really busy with school and work so I didn't have time to write.  

I was also wondering what you think of the story so far and do you guys think if rose should end up in a relationship with Fred or-....?  I'm not sure yet so let me know. 

I'm sorry again. 

love, the Dyslectic Dutchman
