The Accident (A Harry Potter Love Triangle)

Chapter Nine

Fred, "I want her first!"

George, "No, me!"

Me, "Boys..." But they don't hear me, they're to busy playing Rock Paper Scissors to notice someone walking in the door.

Fred again, "Yay! I get Heather first!"

"Get her first for what?" asks Neville, who just walked in with Mr and Mrs Weasley.

"Uh.." the twins says in unison.

"Get. Her. First. For. WHAT??"

"Um, chess?" I say faintly.

"Uh-huh, sure, and I'm the Minister of Magic." Neville says as he whips his wand out of his pocket. But the twins are just as fast, and before you know it, Me, Neville, the twins, and Mr. Weasley all have out wands out. Mrs. Weasley looks shocked.

"Boys! Heather! Put those wands away this instant!" Yells Mrs. Weasley. We hear footsteps on the stairs. Hermione and Bethany have just run into the kitchen. Then comes Harry, wearing unzipped jeans and a tee shirt, and Ginny, only wearing her tank top and skirt... and one sock? Mr. Weasley glares at Harry.

"I'll have a word with you later."

"Now, boys, what's going on?!" demands Mrs. Weasley.

"Heather-" starts Fred

"-being the slut she is-"

"was going to-

"-provide us with some-"

"-entertainment-"

"-while-"

"-our sister screwed-"

"-her brother," finishes George. Their parents glare at Ginny, and back to Harry, then at me (I feel myself go red), and finally at the twins. Everyone is silent. Then Beth asks Hermione,

"What's a slut?"

"A person who... well... a Heather."

"Oh."

Then Neville speaks.  "Heather, I came here to declare my love for you, in the form of this ring-" he holds up a beautiful diamond ring "-but you obviously don't love me and therefore don't deserve it. So good day to you all..." He walks out the kitchen door into the yard. Seconds later I hear a crack. Tears are pouring down my cheeks like a waterfall.

"Neville?" I squeak. I run out into the yard. He's gone. Sobs shake my body as I lay in the summer's green grass. No one comes to comfort me.

I had just lost the love of my life.
