Months passed Diana, George, and Fred fell into an easy rhythm of life. She would wake up early, make everyone breakfast, she went to practice, they opened the shop, when she came back, she'd find dinner on the stove, the boys were closing the shop, she'd wash up, and the three of them would eat dinner together. A couple times a week Fred would invite Mariam to join them, she was practically there fourth roommate at times. 

"Ready to go?" Diana asked Mariam. She shut her locker, Mariam stood up from the bench, looking up at Diana and nodded. 

"Yup." She slung her bag over her shoulder, taking her wand out of her pocket. 

"Diana, Mariam. You guys looked good out there." Alex said, his eyes lingering on Diana, Mariam glanced at Diana from the corner of her eye, Diana ignored the look. 

"Thank you, Alex." Diana said, she glanced at her wristwatch. The twins were waiting for them, with a hot dinner that Diana was craving so bad at the moment.

"So tonight, we're having a party-"

"Is that safe? With everything going on?" Mariam interrupted; Alex nodded.

"We're having a party; password protected no death eater is going to be able to get in. It's accessed through the floo. You two are invited. The password is apples to apples, if you want to come." 

"Apples to apples? What kind of password is that?" Mariam asked, Diana chuckled.

"It's that board game remember?"

"Exactly! No death eater is going to figure out the password is a muggle board game." Alexander smirked; Diana laughed.

"Smart." 

"Anyway, I have to get going, have to set up for the party, but come to the party. I really hope you guys come." Alexander said the last part to Diana, putting a hand on her arm, before he walked out of the changing rooms. Mariam looked around dramatically, Diana knew it was to make sure no one was in the locker rooms before she said for the thousand time.

"He likes you." 

"Please, he does not like me." Diana huffed; they've had this conversation a hundred times before hand. 

"Yes, he does! How do I get it through your skull! Diana, I hope you come." She dramatically put her hand across Diana's shoulder, and then her arm. 

"He didn't do that!" Diana laughed, pushing Mariam's hand away. 

"He basically did. He likes you!" 

"Okay come on, we're going to be late for dinner." They took out there wands, and apparated at the same time in front of 'Weasley's Wizard Wheeze's.' Mariam opened the door for both of them, the store was empty, George was behind the counter, shutting down the register for the day.

"We're closed-Oh it's you two. How was your day?" He asked, before kissing Diana on the cheek. 

"Good, I managed to perfect the move I was telling you about." Diana grinned, 

"We were invited to a party today." Mariam added, Diana saw her looking around the shop, probably looking for Fred.

"What party?" George asked, he shut the register, took his wand out and locked the front door of the shop, before the three walked upstairs.

"It's one of our teammates. He invited us," 

"Do you guys want to go?" George asked, Diana shrugged.

"I don't know if it's safe, but I wouldn't mind getting out of the routine we've built just a little." They opened the door, the smell of potato soup, roasted chicken, and mashed potatoes filled the room.

"Ugh, that smells so good. I'm starving." Diana said, she put her bag on the ground. Mariam kissed Fred hello. 

"So, party yes or no?" Mariam asked,

"I say let's go. They swear it's super safe." Diana shrugged.

"Okay, I guess we're going."

Diana wore a pair of tight grey boot cut trousers with a tight black off the shoulder shirt, putting her hair in a bun. George wore a black short sleeved shirt with brown straight pant trousers. They stood in front of the fireplace after Mariam told everyone the password, one by one they through the floo network. 

Diana stepped out of the fireplace last, into Alex's flat. It was a large bachelor pad, it had brown hardwood large black leather couches, facing a large fireplace. A large kitchen, and a hallway which obviously led to the bedrooms. 

"Diana! Mariam! I'm glad you two could make it. Who's this?" Alex said, he walked over glancing between Fred and George.

"Oh, these are our boyfriends. This is Fred and George Weasley." Mariam said, pointing to each of them. Alex shook both their hands, before he looked at Diana again.

"Well, you guys can get any drinks you'd like. I'm so happy your here." He said the last part to Diana again, she forced a smile on. George tilted his head back, looking down his nose at Alex, which was easy considering George was at least a good 4 inches taller than him. He didn't like him.

"Diana I can get your dri-"

"Fred and I can get our girls drinks. Are they in the kitchen?" George asked, he put his hand on Diana's back. 

"Oh, sure. It's right of there." George followed Alex into the kitchen. There was a counter filled with different kinds of drinks. There were several different sized cups, and bowls of different food.

"Fred! George!" Oliver shouted; the twins looked up. Oliver Wood walked over, clapped both of them on the back. 

"Oliver, I thought we'd be seeing you here." George grinned, Oliver jumped on the counter, clearing a little tipsy.

"I haven't seen you two in forever! I think the last time I saw you two was during the quidditch world cup." Oliver said, he poured himself another cup of firewhiskey. 

"That was fun, I think you had just joined puddlemere united." Fred said, he poured two cups of firewhiskey for himself and Mariam. 

"I did, know look at me. I'm close to being captain you know. Just don't tell Alex that, I think he has his eyes set on being captain." Oliver whispered; George glanced at Alex from across the kitchen. He was holding a large glass of firewhiskey as he talked to a guy that George didn't recognize from the team.

"What do you think about him?" George asked, he poured himself a cup of firewhiskey, and leaned against the counter. 

"Everyone on the team talks about how big of a crush he has on Diana." Oliver said, before he smacked his hand over his mouth. George gripped the cup so tight it was crushed in hand, firewhiskey leaked over the side. 

"I shouldn't have said that."

"Why?" Oliver looked at the cup in George's hand, George threw the cup into the sink. 

"Fred, can you get Diana one too. I need to talk to our dear friend Oliver." George smacked Oliver on the back, almost making him slip off the counter before Oliver caught himself.

"Fred, don't leave me." Oliver whispered; Fred shook his head.

"Good luck with that buddy." Fred said, he poured a third cup of fire whiskey for Diana before rushing off. George could see Oliver watching him for help.

"What do you mean he has a crush on Diana?" George hissed under his breath. Oliver looked like he wished he could be anywhere else, everyone knew when George didn't usually blow his fuse but when he did, he could be the scariest man in the room.

A/N- I'm sorry I didn't update this story earlier, I was having a lot of writer's block for this one, but I think it's finally getting better.
