A Black And A Weasley.

Part 5

" I told you!" I called to Fred and George as we left Potions.

" Miss Black do you honestly have the nerve to speak in my lesson. 5 points from Gryffindor." Fred said mocking Snape.

" Professor I have to talk to him he's my partner!" George also said mocking me.

"  Another 5 points from Gryffindor for speaking out of turn." Fred sneered.

"Professor you're being unreasonable." George called smiling.

" 5 points  from Gryffindor. Now silence from you!" Fred raised his voice just like Snape had.

" You're an insufferable pig!" George shouted whilst laughing uncontrollably.

" 5 POINTS FOR GRYFFINDOR AND LEAVE MY CLASSROOM, BLACK!" Fred shouted.

" WITH PLEASURE!" George shouted back both boys were now doubling over laughing.

" Shut up you two it's not funny!" I said whilst grinning.

" Sure it wasn't," both of them smirked. " Hey look its Harry and Ron." Oliver had told us earlier that Harry was our new seeker. Fred and George are Beaters and I'm a Chaser.

We're playing a Quidditch game. Slytherin vs. Gryffindor. I hate playing against Slytherin not because we can't beat them because trust me we can. It's just because they play dirty every time. Suddenly I notice that Marcus Flint, captain of the Slytherin team, had knocked Oliver off his broom with a Bludger!

" Hey Flint! You don't need to prove to us that your an intolerable cow! I mean look your teeth even they want to get away from you!" I shouted to him.

" You'll pay for that Black!" He shouted and came speeding over to me. He didn't stop so I dove down on my broom. Suddenly I felt something hard hit the middle of my spine. That bloody idiot hit me with a Bludger. I quickly slipped off the front of my broom and fell head first onto the ground below.

Everything went black.

" I'll kill Flint when I get my hands on him!" I heard a shout.

" A two month ban from Quidditch, four months of detentions and 150 points from Slytherin can't be enough! He almost killed her for Merlin sake!" Someone else shouted.

" Calm down boys. Just be thankful she is not dead." A soothing voice said.

" But perhaps Professor, the boys are right we can't let this happen to our students." A worried female voice said.

" Even if their parents are disgusting criminals?" A monotone voice asks.

" Severus." The calm voice said sternly. I wanted to open my eyes but I couldn't. They were to heavy.

" Dumbledore, McGonagall what happened? I came as soon as I got your letter." A worried voice asked bursting through the doors.

" Ah, Remus. Shauna was knocked off her broom by a Bludger in their last Quidditch match. She was aggravating the Slytherin captain and he came after her." The calm voice explained.

" I've told her what sort of trouble that mouth of hers will get her in and look what happens." He said with a sigh.

" Another comparison to that father of hers." The monotone voice sneered.  

" Snape. It's been a while." The latest voice said. Then my eyes fluttered open. In front of me I saw Uncle Remus and Professor Snape glaring at each other. Dumbledore and McGonagall were looking at the hostile adults with disappointed looks in their eyes. Lastly, there were my two best friends Fred and George Weasley.

" Do you guys mind, some of us are trying to sleep." I muttered and everyone's gaze instantly shifted to me.

" Shauna! Thank Merlin you're alright!" George started,

" We wouldn't be able to go on without you!" Fred finished.

" You drama queens." I giggled but instantly regretted it as I felt a pain go down my spine.

" Shauna? Are you alright?" Remus asked quickly moving to my side.

" I'm fine Remus."

" Good. Now what have I told you about mouthing off at people?" He asked.

" Urge not this again. He deserved it he hit our keeper off his broom." I told him.

" That's no excuse to insult the boy!"

" It was a pretty good insult Mr Lupin." Fred chuckled.

" Yeah, Hey Flint! You don't need to prove to us that you're an intolerable cow! I mean look your teeth even they want to get away from you!" George said in a high voice. The adults, minus Snape of course, started chuckling.

" Miss Black you'll be able to leave in a week. However you'll need crutches for a few weeks just until you become less frail. I'm sure both Mr Weasleys would be prepared to help you." Madam Pomfrey told me. I looked over to the twins who were both giving me encouraging smiles. 

Time Skip:

It was now Christmas and I was staying at school because Remus was away and couldn't look after me. He sent me a letter explaining everything and apologised. I didn't really mind. I was used to it by now. I understand what Remus has to go through and it isn't fair that people discriminate against him for something that only happens once a month. I had planned out my holidays quite easily. Homework, and prank planning. I can't do a lot considering I'm still in crutches although I'm a lot more mobile now. I hobbled down to the Gryffindor common in my pyjamas. Not many people stayed behind but for some reason I heard a lot of noise coming from the common room. I walked in and saw my favourite group of red-heads and my favourite little four-eyes. I mean that in the nicest way possible.

" Liking the outfit Shauna!" Fred called and after being hit in the side by George. Odd.

" You look lovely Shauna!" George called. Odder.

" Umm thanks?" I said, " Hey, Percy, Ron, Harry." I greeted the others.

" Hi Shauna," Ron and Harry replied whereas Percy replied with a proper hello.  

" What are you lot doing here then." I asked them.

" Well isn't it nice to feel wanted." Fred said whilst crossing his arm over his chest, pouting.

" Aww Fweddie you know I didn't mean it like that." 

" Well anyway Mum and Dad decided to ditch us and went to Romania to visit Charlie." George told me.

" And I would much rather be here than with my cousin Dudley." Harry explained.

" Fair enough." I said patting his back. " Okay Fred, George I'm going to be needing your help with a few things around the castle." I told them with a grin. They returned it instantly knowing what sort of 'help' it was.

Whilst everyone who stayed for the holidays was in the Great Hall we quietly made our way towards the Hufflepuff common room.

" Okay so little Miss Genius how are we going to get in?" George asked.

" You see those barrels? Well the barrel two from the bottom, middle of the second row will open if you tap it in the rhythm of 'Helga Hufflepuff'. Make sure you do it right otherwise we'll be covered in vinegar!" I told them. They nodded there heads.

" How do you know that?" Fred asked.

" I have my ways." I said slyly. They just chuckled and got on with it. Once we got in we were greeted by a cosy, low-ceilinged room. It's decorated in yellow and black, the Hufflepuff colours, and a portrait of Helga Hufflepuff was displayed above a wooden mantelpiece. Around the room there were various house plants. Professor Sprout did love with Herbology after all.

" So where shall we start."
