For The Love of Pranks! I Love You!

Believe me. He's innocent!

"Evey...It's time to get up love." Why must the twins be able to get into my room? I hardly got sleep last night and I am not a morning person, it's a deadly combination.

"No...too..early." I say as I bring the duvet up to cover my face from the noise and the sunlight.

"Evelyn Black." The boys say with fake authority. "Don't make us use our devises and sheer brains to wake you up."

I snort in laughter at the thought of them using their brains, which earns me a slap through the covers and a "shuddup" from the two. Also they better not use any of their pranking gear. I will seriously kill them, I've seen them wake Ron up with some of their stuff and it isn't fun for the victim.

"You wouldn't dare." I say still buried. "Coz you know I will get you boys back, when you're least expecting it." My room got really quiet while they thought this over, they're smart last time I got them back for a prank their skin was lime green for weeks.

"C'mon Paws, Mum's making breakfast and we're starved, also Harry's here. Please come down?" Fred begs and I can hear George scoff in the background but it makes me laugh knowing that taking the nice approach was all Fred's idea.

"Fine fine. I'm up already anyways." I say flipping the duvet off me and swinging my feet around the side of the bed. Sighing as I move my brunette hair out of my face, and seeing both twins looking at me.

"What?"

"You look like hell Evey." George says and Fred elbows him in the gut.

"Thanks Georgie, I hardly slept." I say my words dripping with sarcasm. "Now if you both don't mind, I'd like to get changed so I don't look like hell." I say with a glare at George and I now notice that Fred has a frown in his face and like he's about to ask me why I didn't sleep. Oops, I totally forgot.. Well I'll havta tell him sooner or later. So I mouth to him that I'll tell him later he nods and they both leave me to change.

I meet the twins on the landing and we hear Ron talking about their trip to Egypt again.  The twins started to pick on Ron while I said hello to Harry and apologize for my short hello yesterday. He doesn't know he's my god brother and I guess Remus wants to keep it that way.

"So how're we getting to King'sCross tomorrow?" I ask Fred who just shrugs his shoulders, but apparently Mr Weasley heard and told us we are going in Minstry cars.

"Why?" Everyone asked at once. And George got a cheeky smirk on his face at the opportunity to torment Percy.

"It's because of you Perce. And there'll be little flags with HB waving around." And Fred with a snigger joins in.

"For Humongous Bighead of course." And everyone except Mrs Weasley and Percy had to stifle their laughter. After breakfast most of us still had to buy our school stuff so we went and did all that boring stuff and came back, on our way to the rooms Fred and George decided to nick Percy's Head Boy badge. We hurried into their room which is, thankfully, right next to mine and they started changing the words on it.

"What should we make it say George?"

"Hmm.. Prat Boy?" We all giggle at that name.

"No no. Know-it-all Boy?" That was a good one too, but then I got an idea to maybe combine the two.

"How about Bighead Boy?" At that the twins looked at me for a second before we busted out laughing so hard we were crying.

"It's perfect! And that Paws is why you work with us. We are all geniuses!" By that time we could hear Percy yelling at Ron for 'taking' his badge. Which makes us laugh harder until there's a knock at the door and we all get quiet.

"Paws you go open it. If it's Mum, she likes you best and won't suspect anything!" George whispers while pushing me towards the door. I smack his hands away while poking my tongue at him and he does it back which makes Fred laugh. So I get up and open the door by the second knock, and open it to find Harry, you can hear the three of us release our breaths thankful it wasn't Mrs Weasley.

"Hiya Harry. What can I do for ya?"

"Hi Evelyn. Um well I was just uh wondering if you lot knew what happened with Percy's badge?" I feel Fred come and stand behind me to show Harry the badge.

"We've got it, we've been improving it!" Harry gives what seems to be a forced laugh and leaves back to his room.

"What's got his wand in a knot?" Fred says disappointed he didn't get the reaction he wanted. I have a feeling it's about my dad coz Mr Weasley did talk to Harry privately but it's just a guess.

"I think I might know." I say looking down at my hands.

"What is it Paws?" The both say at the same time.

"Well, you both remember when I talked to your dad last night right?" They nod so I just continue. "Well he told me-he told me that my dad has escaped Azkaban... And the Profit says it's likely he's after Harry and myself..." The twins look shocked. I let it all soak in letting one of them speak first.

"Is that why you seemed so out of it at dinner?" It was George who spoke first Fred still looked like he was trying to understand it all.
"Um yeah.." Still not making eye contact. I feel so bad for not telling them right away but I just couldn't.

"Why didn't you tell us after he told you?" I could hear the hurt laced in Fred's voice and it hurt me too.

"I-I couldn't. I had to get a handle on it myself. I mean how would you react if you were just told that after twelve years your father had escaped an inescapable prison? To come after you and your god brother-" I clasped my hand over my mouth, eyes widening, welp Remus is going to be upset.

"WHAT?! Harry is your god brother?!" They shout in unison, I have to shush them before I answer them.

"Yes, but hush up! I told Remus I wouldn't tell a soul, but I trust you both with my other secret so I can trust you with this."

"Does Harry-"

"No he doesn't know, and Remus doesn't want him to know until the times right. That's probably why he seemed freaked out around me coz 'my dad's after us blah blah blah'-"

"You don't believe he's after you and Harry?" George asks while looking at me like I'm mad.
"No I don't. I swear I'm not mad, so don't you say anything George. Remus and I both believe him to be innocent, but people won't believe us so we keep our opinions silent."

"Thats why you didn't argue with dad or anything? But because people think he's mad it ruins your mood yes?" Fred asks finally putting it all together. That's why I can trust these boys, they know exactly how I feel and we've known each other forever, therefore we can tell our secrets to each other.

"Yeah pretty much.." Before I knew it I was tackled into a ginger sandwich, making me laugh and hug both my boys back. We had to go to bed soon after that seeing as we head off too King's Cross in the morning, but I'm excited for Hogwarts. Pranks, Moony is my teacher, and more Pranks! Not worrying about OWLs until later. Should be a fun year!
