Double The Fun {George's Side} [book 1]

Chapter 8

I walk down to the dungeons towards the potions classroom.
I step through the doors and instantly realize I'm the only forth year in this class.
I look around the room and see one of the twins, I walk over and sit next to him, since he's the only person I recognize in here.
He doesn't look like he's very pleased with being in this class, especially since the other twin isn't here.
I pull out my advanced potions book and begin to flip through it.
"Any specific reason as to why you're sitting next to me?" he asks, I look up from my book and realize it's George.
"I don't know anyone else here." I say with a small shrug.
"Fair enough." He says, looking back down at the table, and I go back to my textbook.
When Snape walks into the room he immediately looks over at me questioningly.
"What are you doing here Miss Tracy?" Snape asks me, a sneering at me.
"I'm in this class Professor." I state calmly as I look up at him.
"I should have known." He states dully and walks up to the front of the classroom to start the lesson.
--------------------------------------
We were told to make an Ageing potion.
I was almost finished with the last step and we were only through about a quarter of the class.
I look over to see George having some trouble, still on the second step.
"Need any help?" I ask him quietly, as I look over his shoulder.
"Um....yeah.." He says quietly. I move the ingredients he was working with and began to help with slicing them and throw them into the now boiling cauldron. After a little over twenty minutes, George and I are both done.
"I think I found a way for Fred and I to enter into the tournament." George says with a small mischievous grin on his face, looking at the now finished potion.
"I doubt it will work." I say smugly. "The Goblet wont allow you two to enter just because of an Ageing potion."
"We'll see about that." He says cockily, a smile making its way to his lips.
We both begin to clean up our tables when I notice a girl on the other side of the room staring at me strangely, almost glaring at me. I look at her for a moment and then I remember who she is, Katie Bell, one of the Gryffindor Chasers. I look over to George and smile.
"I noticed you aren't very talented with potions." I say, trying to be as nice as possible.
"That's an understatement." He says with a laugh.
"Would you like me to tutor you?" I ask. "We could work on some of the less advanced potions."
"I practically just met you." He says, in a joking matter.
"George." I say, probably sounding annoyed.
"You knew which twin I was?" He asks, seemingly calm.
"Yeah." I answer, a little confused at the question.
"It's the first time someone has been able to tell the difference." He states sadly but at the same time happily.
"I have to admit, it wasn't very hard if you actually take a moment and look at the two of you." I say. "Fred is a bit more of a ladies man, while your a bit more of a gentleman."
"Thanks." He says with a small smile. "I'd love it if you tutored me."
