Ron?

George pulled Audrey into the common room, Fred and Luna following close behind.

Audrey looked around, taking in her surroundings.
Lee Jordan was on top of a table screaming along to the music, with a red solo cup.

harry was walking around socializing with any girl in site, any girl but Ginny.

Ginny was leaned against a wall, watching harry wishfully.

Hermione was no where to be found, to no one's surprise.

and then there was Ron.

Ron was sitting in a armchair, pushed in a corner to make space, he looked incredible uncomfortable, all alone.

Audrey could relate, she had never been very comfortable in big groups and crowds, let alone a party.

she watched Ron sip something out of a red cup, making a bit of a face, probably fire whiskey.

"cmon Audrey, let's get you a drink," Fred said before taking a long drag of his cigarette that just seemed to appear.

he took her hand and led her and Luna to a table, with every type of alcohol you could think of, fire whiskey of course, but also a lot of muggle drinks as well.

"pick your poison," he leaned down to whisper in her ear, it sent shivers down her whole body. "have any butterbeer? or water?"

"boring, but yes." he sighed, squatting to get the butterbeer from under the table, "Luna?"

"same for me," she spoke is her usual airy voice, obviously Luna and Audrey weren't the drinking type, being pretty young still.

he quickly poured two cups of butterbeer for the girls, before being swept away by Lee and George, leaving the girls alone.

"Luna!" a Hufflepuff girl said, as she jumped up behind luna, and pulled her away.

great Audrey thought, she was alone with a bunch of kids she didn't know, at a party she didn't want to be at.

she sipped her butterbeer as she walked towards the couch, she flopped down with a sigh.

she watched, as the party continued. it was quieter in the corner, but still loud, Audrey's head was starting to throb.

the room smelled of alcohol and sex.

"hey." a boy said, appearing in front of her. he was tall, dark hair, dark eyes, Audrey had no clue who he was.

"hello," she replied softly, "wanna smoke with me?" he said as he set next to her.

"uhm, no thank you." she said politely, moving away for him, this boy was at least sixteen.

"oh cmon," he scoffed, moving towards her. "i don't bite, unless you want me to." gag.

he really could not take a hint. Audrey furrowed her brows together, trying to rack her brain for a way to respond to that.

"hey babe," a hand was placed on her shoulder, she could feel the heat rising to her face.

it was Ron.

"oh hey Ron," she said, looking up at him, now grabbing his hand, catching on to what he was doing.

the boy looked between Audrey and Ron, eyes fixating on they're hands. "this your boyfriend or something?" he scoffed out.

"yeah, you could say that." Ron replied for her, glaring at the older boy.

"whatever," he sighed, storming off.

"thank you," Audrey said, as Ron made his way to sit next to her. "no problem, i know that git, flirts with Hermione all the time."

"i don't blame him," Audrey giggled, "speaking of Hermione, where is she?" she asked, looking down at the floor.

"oh, she's in her dorm," he said, "not the party type."

"me neither, when the twins told me to meet them here i didn't realize it was for, this," she spoke so softly, yet so confident.

"well, we don't have to stay," he said, she finally met his eye line.

his beautiful blue eyes, now dark from the lighting.
freckles standing out, Audrey loved freckles.

her brows furrowed, as she understood what he said. "what do you mean?" she asked.

"i mean, we could go to my dorm."

her eyes went wide in shock, what is he talking about.

"oh, bloody hell, not like that." he chuckled, "i just mean, we could go play chess or something? i have my dorm to myself, it's quiet."

she thought for a moment, what's the worst that could happen?

she then she nodded, standing up.
