Double Trouble - Fred/George Love Story

Chapter 3

Chapter 3

Skylia's POV

My nose twitched. I recognize that scent. It was Maria. She and Fred were just entering the Ice Cream Parlour. I was tempted to run and join them but Snape and Lucius hadn't finished their talk.

"How on Earth could you suggest that I could have feelings for a student especially a Potter Lucius!"

"Whether you admit it or not Serverus is none of my concern but what does bother me is the fact that all three Potter siblings are alive! You've had plenty of time you dispose of them"

"Oh yes Lucius right under Dumbledore's nose! I am simply waiting for the opportune moment."

"Well let us hope the opportune moment arises soon shall we?!" Lucius barked before walking off. I slid further up against the cauldron. Snape stayed still for a couple of minutes. Then oh so gently under his breath

"He's right. I must regain control over my emotions." Then he too walked off. I waited a minute before I darted off back to the alley and up through the bathroom window. Luckily there wasn't anyone there so I transformed back into normal me. My head was reeling with what I'd just heard. Snape was in touch with Voldermort and the Malfoy’s who in turn wanted Me, Harry and Maria dead! And to top it off Snape was "apparently" in love with a Potter girl. And to think a about half an hour ago I had been so happy. I was about to walk out when Maria walked in.

"Sky! What's happening? George said you'd been in here for ages and I just seen you as Hazel!"

I gave her a look

"I don't mind having a code name while I'm a fox but there's no way you're calling me Hazel!"

"Hazel's a nice name!"

"Auntie Hazel"

"Ohhhh I'd forgotten about her" Maria shuddered "Okay how about...Blackie?"

"You think of some weird names but fine. Anyway we have more important things to talk about. I've had just over heard the most terrible conversation!"

I told her everything about Snape and Lucius and about them planning our "disposal" and of course Snape "emotions" Maria looked she was about to faint or cry. Or maybe both.

"Oh.My.God. I thought when Malfoy said threaten me about that..."

"You've seen Malfoy?" I interrupted

"Yeah outside Gringotts. Anyway he told me to watch out for his mother and father. Oh Sky what are we gonna do?" she cried. She was on the verge of tears.

"Well first we're are going to finish eating our ice creams. Then we're going to tell the boys about this and then we'll meet the others and tell them. Then finally we'll tell Sirius and Dumbledore"

Maria rubbed her hand across her eyes and nodded.

"Okay."

"And Maria?"

"Yeah?"

"Don't worry"

Maria give me a look.

"And you call me weird."
