Friendship on Fire | Fred & George Weasley

Reunited.

Hogwarts was becoming increasingly unbearable with Umbridge here. She would give students detentions for the most outrages things. Fred and I..well we kept getting them for snogging in obscene places. Harry could never keep his opinions to himself, and as a result earned a detention almost every other day. The students of Hogwarts were very thankful for my antidote though,and I had numerous students thank me daily. Fred and I were getting along better than ever, and even George and Angelina got together. Angelina had somehow managed to stay in George's room every night without getting caught..I on the other hand wasn't that brave, and it felt weird since they were all a couple years older than me.

"psst Ronnie!" I heard someone yell whisper my name in the great hall this morning. I was finishing a Transfiguration essay that wasn't due for another week. I turned to see Harry and Hermione trying to get my attention a few seats over. I sighed before setting my quill down and sliding in their direction. "What up?" I asked, not meaning to have an impatient tone to my voice. "Ok, Harry and I have an idea..and we need your help" Hermione said quietly.

I looked to Harry, who just nodded with a weak smile. "Ok..." I said trailing off, waiting for her to continue. "Well, you obviously know that we aren't learning anything in defence against the dark arts" she said leaning in closer to me. I just nodded as if it was the most obvious thing in the world. "And, we think." she then smacked Harry's arm to continue for her.

"I want you to help me teach the students about defensive spells" He whispered to me with a sidewards glance. "I am all for teaching the students the things that toad lady is obviously not going to teach..but why me?" I asked them, leaning my head against my arm. I believed Harry completely when he said Voldemort was arise again, and none of the students in this school were learning anything they should be. But I didn't understand why they think I should be teaching? Im only fifteen..

"Your the smartest witch here! Im sure you have mastered spells that the other seventh years haven't even tried" Hermione exclaimed waving her hands around. It felt weird having Hermione give me such praise, when a couple of weeks ago she was hating my guts. I sighed, knowing these two..they wouldn't give up until I helped them.. "Ok ill do it" I said smiling. "we will let you know when were having a meeting" Harry whispered, but before I could hear what Hermione was going to say i almost fell out of my chair when I saw who walked in through the double doors..

My best friend since age two was standing in the doorway looking around the room. Aimee was about as short as myself with shoulder length blond wavy hair and piercing blue eyes. She had those looks that just made guys swoon, and she often took that to her advantage. While I on the other hand, was quieter and more shy around the guys. I probably deafened all of Gryffindor house with the squeal i let out and jumped from my seat and literally sprinted towards my friend.

She must had noticed my presence and followed suit and we soon were running towards each other down the center of the great hall, earning many strange looks from my fellow students. I tackled her in a hug so big it brought us both to the floor. And soon just like old times, we were laughing until we cried. I haven't seen Aimee in months since I moved to London and we both took off to school. And I missed her terribly..she had always been my rock and was like a twin sister to me we knew each other so well.

Finally after we picked ourselves off the floor, we once again hugged..only gentler this time as to not fall again. "What are you doing here!" I squealed into her ear. I was crying tears of happiness to have my best friend with me again. The only female here I actually clicked with was Ginny and I was three years above her. Hermione was never around or busy with Ron and Harry..And Angelina was always with George, and she was three years older then me.

"i got transferred here! I couldn't leave my bestie alone could I!" She said and we took two empty seats at the end of the Ravenclaw table. I got a weird look from Cho Chang, but she turned around when Aimee snapped at her "Oi! Turn around you nutter!". Aimee was small, but she had that confidence that made people listen to her. "This is amazing! maybe were in the same house!" i said trying to find a lion crest on her robes..but instead I found a serpent.

"Sorry love, Im in slytherin..just got sorted" she said happily but with a sad smile we weren't in the same house. "We wont even be in classes together though" I said pouting my lip out. She crinkled her nose, and flicked my lick with her finger causing us to giggle. "Why? don't you have some slytherins in your classes?" she asked grabbing some toast that was abandoned on a plate and nibbling on it. "I do, but im in seventh year" I said giving her a guilty look. "WHAT!" She yelled. I saw Umbridge look like she wanted to come say something, but was intercepted by Snape asking her a question. "You smarty pants you!" she said tickling my side. Aimee was never the type of person to get jealous of someone for anything she didnt have.. I had always been naturally good in school, while she excelled in sports..she is an amazing quiditch player. We were pretty opposite when it comes to alot but the same when it comes to others. I think if anything, Aimee would be jealous I got to leave school early.

"Oh, you need to come meet my friends..and boyfriend" i said smiling and blushing at the thought of Fred. I heard her gasp and linking our arms before we skipped off to the gryffindor table. We walked over to my normal group. Fred was sitting across from George and Angelina, Ginny was a couple of seats over with Neville and Dean, and Hermione, Harry and Ron were in their normal seats.

"Hey love" I said plopping down beside Fred and giving him a kiss on the cheek, Aimee plopped her bum on top of the table. Hermione gave her a disapproving look before ignoring her completely. I guess its good she is in slytherin, otherwise those two would butt heads something awful. "Aimee, this is my boyfriend Fred. Fred this is Aimee" I said introducing the pair. I had told Fred all about Aimee so im sure he felt he knew her already. "Got yourself a babe huh?" Aimee said laughing and shaking Fred's hand. "Oi!" I heard George say and I rolled my eyes at him. "Thats Fred's twin brother, my friend George" I said waving him off like he was nothing. He stuck his tongue out and I returned it. Aimee sat and enjoyed watching me interact with my friends.

She got introduced to everyone eventually, Hermione of course barely said a word..Aimee didn't notice, she was busy having a conversation about quiditch with Ginny. "I like her" Fred whispered in my ear, I gave him a a large smile and a quick peck on the lips before I felt a tap on the shoulder. I turned around to meet the grey eyes of my cousin.

"Hey D" I said getting up and giving him a quick hug. The conversations died down around me, as their enemy was standing near them all. I felt the awkwardness.. Aimee must have to because she soon leaped out of her seat to join me. "Whos this?" she said linking her arm with mine and looking Draco up and down. I saw Draco do the same thing and ended up smirking in the end. "Aimee, this is Draco" I said nodding his way. "No way? Cousin Draco?" He said. i nodded and she lept into Draco's arms startling him with a hug he wasn't expecting. She knew all about him..she knew everything actually, i never kept things from her.

"I feel like I know you already!" She said, he winced as she yelled in his ear but hugged her back eventually. I saw the girl from the train giving her a death glare and sneered before turning around to her breakfast. "Nice to meet you to" He said laughing. "Hey were in Slytherin together! yay I know someone!" Aimee said clapping her hands, causing me and Draco to laugh at her excitement.

"well I would love to show you around" Draco said biting his lip and tilting his head. I rolled my eyes as Aimee started twirling her hair..and I knew my cousin was about to become her latest conquest. I heard her yell a goodbye to me before they exited the room. I smiled at the fact that maybe my year could be a little better knowing my best friend would be here with me...
