Caterina grabbed Cassies hand, and pulled herself onto the small boat, nervously. As she sat down, she thought about the frightened expression Chance had on his face when his friends had called him over, to join them on their boat. He had taken a deep breath, let out a quiet, "See ya." and strutted over to them, with fake confidence.
Just as she was about to express her thoughts to Cassandra, the two girls heard a loud voice. "You just had to go back for that bon-bon, didn't you, Georgie. Now we have too split up, great going." Even though the words seemed harsh, it was obvious the boy was joking.
"Oh shove off Fred, look there's a boat there, with two spots left," the boy who's name was supposedly George, exclaimed while pointing at the girls boat. " and the one right beside it, has a space for Lee. No need to get your knickers, in a twist." he sniggered.
Fred turned to Lee, "We'll meet up right before the sorting ceremony, alright." "Yeah, yeah, he gets it, come on before someone takes our spots." George whined, pushing his twin towards the boat. "I'm going, I'm going."
As the boys trotted over to the boat, Cassandra narrowed her eyes. The two looked so familiar, yet she couldn't place where she had met them before. It was only when she spotted the small bruise under one of the boys eyes, had she recognized them. Though last time, there was only one.
The two redheads quickly hopped into the small boat, just in the nick of time, as it had started sailing onward. As they settled down, the one that Cassandra had never met before, turned to the two girls with a grin on his face. "Hello ladies, I'm-"
"Quaffle cushion!!"
The other one shouted suddenly, making everyone jump. Cat would have fallen out if it weren't for Cassie reflexes that grabbed onto her.
The three stared at the boy with the bruise in shock, he had wide eyes and was staring straight at Cassandra. When he realized what he had done, his cheeks flushed red, with embarrassment. "I mean Fred my names Fred, Fred-" he spoke with a loud voice, still shouting.
"Weasley, your the one that caught me right? Thanks for that, would have been a nasty fall, and sorry for the whole, elbowing you in the face thing." Cassie cut in with.
The boy looked shocked, "So you remember me?" He questioned.
"Of course I do."
A soft smile appeared on Fred's face and he looked down hoping the girl wouldn't see his blush. "Em, alright then, er, I'm George, if you couldn't tell already were twins." Said George, with a now awkward grin on his face, he wasn't expecting Fred's outburst either. They had rehearsed their introductions, at home the day before, and that was not the way it should have gone.
"I'm Caterina Viotto." Cat introduced herself, with a graceful smile.
"Yeah, and I'm Cassandra Harper, in case you forgot." Cassie chimed in, with an awkward hand movement.
