I sprinted down the halls, running to get to Potions. I had woken up late, for the first time because last night I had been planning a game of Seven Minutes In Heaven in the Room of Requirement. I had invited thirty people, including five girls and five boys from Ravenclaw, five girls and five boys from Hufflepuff, and ten Gryffindors; Fred, George, Angelina, Oliver, Lee, myself, Katie Bell, Agatha and Amanda, two fourth years, and Zach, one of Oliver's closest friends.

I ran into Potions class and sat down in my spot when Snape wasn't looking. He turned around and glared at me, but ignored the fact that I was late. Angelina gave me a helpful smile, and scooted a bit closer so that I could copy her notes.

Snape continued with his usual, boring lectures. The class seemed to last for hours upon hours. I reached into my bag and wrote on a piece of parchment paper the details of the game tonight and slipped it into the hands of a few of the Hufflepuffs and Ravenclaws that I shared class with. The note got passed around the room, avoiding Slytherin completely until finally it made its way back to me. I grinned and shoved it back into my bag trying hard not laugh out loud at Snape's ignorance.

"Miss. Pure, can you tell me the second step in making a Confusing Concoction?" Snape demanded. Of course, I had no idea what he was talking about, so I shrunk lower into my seat.

"Um, sir, you should probably ask someone else," I said quietly.

Snape looked satisfied, "Well, five points from Gryffindor for being unable to pay attention in class. I suggest you start listening." he turned toward a Slytherin who answered correctly.

"I don't give a damn, Snape," I muttered so only I could hear.

After class, I headed towards the Gryffindor table where my friends were waiting.

"Don't forget, RR tonight for the game," I whispered so the prefects wouldn't hear about it.

"Yep, we'll all be there." Fred said, looking around at everyone, who nodded.

"Good. It'll be the best we've ever had." I smirked and began to eat in silence.

"I drew a blue card. Which lady's blue?" asked Lee, turning and grinning around. Angelina gave a small smile and stood up and the two of them entered the small closet in the middle of the room.

I grinned at Oliver. He was up next. I raised and wiggled my eyebrows causing him to laugh. The thirty of us sat there laughing and talking until the seven minutes were up, and Fred threw open the door. Angelina and Lee were rolling around on the floor, crying tears of laughter. I couldn't help but giggle at the hilarious sight.

"Alright you two, get out!" called a sixth year Ravenclaw, Ryan, who was shaking his head, a small smile etched onto his face.

"Alright, I've drawn a purple out of the deck!" called Oliver. He looked at me and I turned a bright pink and stood up.

"Me!" I said, giggling.

"Well let's go, Pure." He said, taking my hand and leading me into the closet, but not before I catch a grimace on George's face.

We got inside and sat on the bench in the middle of the closet. Oliver wrapped his arms around me and pulled me closer to him.

"Have I ever told you that I think you're beautiful?" He murmured.

I laughed, "We're in the dark, crazy!"

"So?" He asked, bringing his lips to mine.

George's POV

I grimace as Oliver grabs Liz's hand, and Liz's eyes flicker to mine momentarily, but soon we are separated by a closet door. I clench my fist and Fred nudges me.

"You really should tell her how you feel," he whispered.

"No, I can't. She has Oliver, in case you haven't already noticed." I replied, glancing at the timer. Six minutes until I could throw the door open.

"This is killing me, Fred." I said, laying down on the floor, head in my hands.

"Not as much as it kills me to see you like this." he replied looking at me.

"Well, at least we'll die together, then," I said, closing my eyes for a second. ((OMG I HATE MYSELF FOR THIS))

We stayed there in silence as I tried to get rid of the images of Oliver and Liz together, in the closet. Four minutes. I kept staring at the clock. The seconds ticked by, slowly, trying to kill me. Three minutes. I sat up, looking at Fred, biting my lip. Two minutes. She's only 14, why do I think she's doing something inappropriate? One minute. Because he's older than her. Thirty seconds. I stand and walk over to the door, pretending to be a devil, intending to throw the door open. Zero. I throw the door open and see Oliver and Liz, mid kiss, his hand on her thigh and behind her head. Her arms are wrapped around his neck, but I am the only one to see this. They quickly untangle themselves, both blushing a deep red. I keep the scowl off my face, and instead, I smirk and wink at them.

"Hello." I say and turn around and sit down, them following me and sitting down in their respective seats. "Stay away from her, bastard," I say, quietly enough so only I can hear. Liz was like a sister to me, but now, I'm beginning to fall for her. I shake my head and watch Fred pull out a yellow card and he enters the closet with a brown-haired Hufflepuff. He leaves me, and I am left alone with my thoughts.
