Chapter 12: What Crush?

After Cedric left I walked over to the gryffindor table, sitting across from Lee; the twins soon followed me, almost like they were cautious to approach me for a second.
"What? Is it forbidden to talk to Cedric or something?"

"No... I thought you'd just sprint past him in your mad dash for food." George trailed off, sitting to my left.

Fred took a seat to my right and said with a less cautious and more smug (typical twin) tone, "I was thinking almost the same thing, but you would have yelled at any of us for getting between you and food. Why didn't you yell at him? Does Lucy have a wittle cwush?" He finished with a smug smile.

He made me blush, but only a little; I had suddenly just come up with a stupid comeback, but it was better than none, "Why would you care? Unless one of you three guys have a crush on me?" I smirked, raising an eyebrow. It was their turn to blush. Which they took, much to my delight.

The boys turned their scarlet faces to look at their food while I giggled at them and ate mine. Professor McGonnogal came around, handing out our schedules, and luckily I only had flying with Slytherin, everything else was with Hufflepuff or Ravenclaw. The Twins' schedules were identical to mine, unlike Lee had everything but flying and potions with the other half of Gryffindor's first years.

I felt a tap or two on my shoulder after my third serving of bacon and fifth serving of orange juice; I turned around to see Sammy, who looked deadly gleeful (like an "I know something you don't" wide, toothy, smug grin) this scared me a bit, so I held on to the bench, nails digging into the wood and braced myself to be dragged to Merlin knows where.

Sighing, I closed my eyes briefly, turning to make eye contact I said, "What do you want Sammy?" And before she could begin to say anything I stopped her with one more statement, "I swear Sammy, if you want me to meet the 'disgustingly cute' couple you complained about for several hours last night, I will strangle you on the spot."

She looked at me for a second like 'what couple?' Then realization settled in and she rolled her blue eyes, "You will eventually have to meet my brother, but that's not what I need to talk to you about."

Seconds later, when she grabbed my wrist and whisked me out of the great hall, I barely had the time to grab my bag of books that Shimmer brought with the post when I forgot it in the dorm and my schedule.

As soon as the sounds from the hall faded and we were far enough away, she looked at me smugly, "I was right last night wasn't I?"

"About what?"

"You having a crush on one of your guy friends! I am specifically referring to the twins!" She whisper yelled getting well into my personal space and uncomfortably close to my face. Pushing her away I sighed,

"Sam; how many times do I have to say... I DO NOT HAVE A CRUSH! Those two are just my first friends I've ever had, nothing more, nothing less." I retorted, still whispering in the silence. ' honestly; that girl needs to stop playing matchmaker with me.' Was all I could think along with 'what if she's right? Could I have a crush on one of them? What would that do to our relationship if I did? Luckily, I don't right? Yeah, what crush? ' I pushed the matter aside as I went to my first day of classes with the twins where we literally got no homework! It was awesome, and it had made me almost completely forget the talk I had with my insane roommate that morning, but that didn't get rid of the thought that was in my mind as I lay in bed that night. ' What crush was she talking about? I don't have a crush. I just met Fred. I could not like him like that yet? Could I?'

I slowly began to wonder the possibility of me liking Fred or George, 'I mean they are my best friend, nothing more. Right?'
