Hogwarts Life as Ash Potter (A Harry Potter/George Weasley/Remus Lupin FF)

Chapter 7

When standing in the row to Hogsmead Mitch started a conversation with me. 'Eh... Ashley? Would you go to the ball with me?' He was staring at his shoes and it was all pretty sad. 'I'm sorry Mitch, I already said yes to someone else. Why don't you ask Alicia? She seems to like you!' Mitch nodded sadly but walked over to Alicia. I saw that Alicia said yes and gave a thumbs up to Mitch. It was almost like all the dates were set today because Lee asked Sophie, Fred asked Katie and Angelina asked George.

George said no and she already knew Fred had said yes to her friend so she started to send evil glances at me. I look at George who also noticed it and was frowning. 'It's pretty scary.' I told him. He nodded. 'It is.' Angelina asked Tom in the end, the only boy left over. It wasn't really the only one but he seemed pretty OK, so I guess that's why she asked him. The evil glances didn't stop however. Great.

Sophie and I split up from the boys and started to search for the perfect dress. I got one pretty quickly, a red one with golden details. I absolutely loved it and Sophie told me that it matched my hair. We also found a dress for Sophie pretty quick after we found mine, a white one with red details. It were kind of twin dresses but in other colours, if you know what I mean. We bought our dresses but we still had plenty of money left.

We went to the Three Broomsticks, a local cafe where we decided to meet up. Fred, George and Lee were already there, they probably bought the first thing they saw. Boys. We went to Zonkos and I was absolutely amazed. It's so cool to run a shop like this! And imagine that I was actually helping Fred and George doing that. I'm so cool! 

We bought plenty of Mudbombs and a parchment that if you wrote the wrong password would scream 'GIT!' For 10 minutes. It was actually quite funny because without any employee we wrote random words at the parchment. The first words written would be the parchment so as soon as someone would buy it, it wouldn't work. We're so funny.

As it went darker we went back to the castle and we were all pretty hungry. I decided to now tell them where the kitchens were. When we entered the kitchen Fred and George were all excited and Lee jumped around. Sophie said 'When did you find out?' I looked at her a smiled. 'Couple weeks ago. What do you think 'bout that strawberry cake I got then?' She started to slap me as I laughed. I walked towards an house elf. 'Can we please all have some french fries with a lot of mayonaise? 

A few minutes later I was sitting there being happy because of my food together with Lee, but the rest never ate it before. When they tried, however, they loved it. 'Why don't they have this in our world?' Sophie whined. I smiled at her. 'Why do you think Muggles exist? You stupid bastard.' Lee now looked at me. 'Watch out, young lady. We're talking about my beautiful date right now.' I just laughed together with Fred and George as Sophie blushed. Typical.

Later that evening, when we went to dinner, Dumbledore announced something which brightened my day. I don't know why everybody needed to know, but who cares? He told us all to be silent and said 'Jason Youri has been condemned to 19 years of jail because of abusion, attempt of murder and murder.' I started to smile. Not like I did before, a real, bright smile. 'I would like you all to think of what this man has done to Ashley. Bad things like this happen in this world. Think about it.' Okay, there was no need to tell my name and he should know it.

Everybody was now staring my way, thinking of what Dumbledore said. 'Abusion and attempt of murder.' George looked at me. 'He abused you?!' He yelled. This guy is creepy when he's angry. 'And that attempt of murder was also on me. He kind of Avada Kedavra'd me but I dodged it.' I told him. He mouth fell open so did a lot of other people's. Oops, everybody heard that. 'He send you the killing curse and you dodged it?' He asked in disbelief. 'No, I didn't and I'm dead. You can ask McGonagall, it was actuall pretty cool. I have dodging skills.' He looked at me as if I'm crazy, so did the whole Great Hall.

Sophie got my back there. 'We should be happy that he's condemned-' Fred stopped her. George started talking again, looking at Sophie. 'You are now saying we should be happy that that Jason attempted to kill Ashley and abused her?' I groaned at the Ashley part and said 'No need for that, George. She's just trying to help me. You should be angry at me and tell me I shouldn't have dodged that spell. Because it's fairly true.' With that I closed my mouth and started to eat.

Everybody was still looking at me and when I finished I looked into George's eyes. They were filled with tears. 'Are you actually telling me you wouldn't have mind if you were dead?' Everybody was wanting to hear my answer, teachers included. 'Yup, I am.' Everybody looked at me with shock. Did he want the truth or not? Dumbledore's twinkling eyes weren't twinkling and Lupin's eyes looked like they would fall out of their sockets. Snape was looking at me with concern while the other teachers just had a look of concern on their faces. No need for that, it's just me people.

George gasped. This was clearly not over, and I didn't mind. I was just being honest. 'What did that Jason guy do?' That part shouldn't be brought up. I look at Fred who asked that. 'Abuse me.' I said, in a Duhh tone. 'But what did he do?' I frowned. Was it that important what he did? 'You know, the usual.' He looked at me as if I had totally gone mad. I sighed. 

'Kick me, slap me, hit me with for example beer bottles which were broken, cut me with a knife if he was too lazy to move to much, that sort of things, you know.' Everybody was now looking like I was dying. Jesus, people calm down. Everybody was waiting for me to end up 'Yelling words at me, telling me to die that sort of stuff. Making me drink alcohol so that he the next morning could command me around while I had a killing headache. Ehm, not giving me food for days because he said I was too fat already, which is also fairly true, pricking me with needles just to see blood flowing and well...' Everybody was staring at me. Did they need to know? But who cares?

'Let's just say I'm not a virgin anymore.' George looked at me with pain in my eyes. 'Sorry George.' I whispered. And then I ran towards the Astronomy Tower. I was going to do something I should've done long before. But what about the Halloween Ball? Angelina, was the answer. He could go with Angelina, he wouldn't be lonely. I climbed all the stairs and went up the Astronomy Tower. George followed me but I quickly closed the door behind me. I know he was bad at Alohomora.
