"CES GARÇONS, JE LE JURE" Ginger mumbled approaching the Gryffindor common room. Opening the large door to enter with the password George had told her, her attention was met with two boys furiously speaking with each other.
"I can't believe that damned toad of a woman!" One twin spoke completely agitated.
"She can't possibly be serious! I mean, a lifetime ban from quidditch? She's completely loony if she thinks that's okay!" The other shouted disregarding the minor injuries Draco gave him.
"Wait, McGonagall kicked you off of the team?" Ginger made her presence known. The two twins noticeably straightened their composure attempting to mask their anger from Ginger but it was all too much.
Harry stood from his seat beside Hermione after being silent the entire time, "yeah, she did." He crossed his arms over his chest.
"Well, surely it can't stick once she's gone? I mean why would they continue the ban after she leaves? She has no real power over that, does she?" Ginger reasoned.
"Yes, but what about us?" George motioned between himself and his carbon copy. Ginger turned her head confused but realized as soon as he spoke again. "We only have this year until quidditch is over for good for us! Harry still has time, we don't!" He projected his anger out on her and her eyebrows furrowed at his raised tone towards her.
She understood why he was upset. Why all of them were upset. But she wouldn't ever stand someone speaking rudely to her. "George," she raised her eyebrows at him expectantly, "I completely understand that you're angry and why." He nodded like it was the most obvious thing ever and she pointed a finger at him, "but don't think you can take that out on me," she said as calm as can be.
His eyes softened at her words. He truly hadn't registered that he was directing his anger out on her and he felt terrible for it. His anger still wavered after he took a seat near where Harry once sat, but he couldn't help but feel a little irritated with himself for raising his voice at the girl who only ever wanted to help him and be around him.
"Point is, Umbridge is a joy sucking toad who needs to be gone as fast as possible." She fiddled with the bandages around her arm, a slight pain going through her as she did so.
Just as she finished her sentence, the portrait entrance of the common room swung open with an eager Neville coming through it. The four teens stared at him expectantly as he caught his breath, chest heaving and hands on knees doing so.
"I...I found it," he breathed out. They looked between each other wondering if anyone knew what he had been talking about. No one did. "The room...the Room of Requirements" He finally said. Their eyes widened simultaneously.
"Take us now," Harry said, advancing towards the door quickly with Fred, and Hermione who had taken hold of a clueless Ron as he descended down the stairs from his dorm.
Ginger skipped to the door with them but halted when she only counted two redheads and not three. She swiveled on her heel to gaze at George who was still sitting in his spot. She stepped forward to him eagerly pulling him up by the wrists ignoring the pain it brought her, "George, come on!" Her voice brought him out of his daze as he stared at her blissful and excited face.
She dragged him to the door but he stopped in his tracks, "I'm sorry," was all he said. She tilted her head at him confused. "For raising my voice," he added.
She craned her head back with her mouth forming and oh shape. "I didn't take it to heart you know," she reassured the boy resting her hands on his toned biceps. "I understand you love quidditch and are upset, I was simply saying that I wanted you to take a moment to calm yourself before releasing your anger out on anyone." He nodded pursing his lips.
"Now come on!" She returned to her eager state and he allowed her to pull him along like an excited child. He wouldn't even dare tell her to calm down or slow down though. He'd never want to ruin her happy mood. In fact, he found it a bit adorable for her to get excited over little things. Letting her ramble on about book plots, dissecting every little detail about it and telling him about it. He was way over in the deep end of his feelings for her and he had no intention of ever coming out of it.
