Reality Bites Harry Potter

Operation: Sabotage

So Blaise, Theo, and I are heading back to the common room after our detention with Snape. "I can't believe you got out of cleaning." Blaise grumbled, folding his arms. I just grinned.

"You have Shay to thank for that." I said shrugging.

"Oh, Susan told me RoR earlier," Theo said thoughtfully.

"What could she have found out within two hours!?" I asked in total disbelief.

"I have no idea." He said shaking his head. Blaise was walking ahead a bit and stopped, causing Theo and I to stop.

"Um, can I talk to you Blaise?" I heard Fred ask. I stopped Theo and held my finger up to my mouth, signalling him to be quiet. He nodded.

"Sure...?" Blaise answered. "What do you want to talk about?"

 "Well, Angelina just asked me out on a date, but I don't feel comfortable going by myself. So would you tag along with us?" Fred begged. I could tell Blaise was shocked. I'm sure that was the last thing he was expecting to hear.

"You want me to tag along on your date?" Blaise asked wide-eyed.

"This is the first date I've ever gone on, so please?"

"Can I think about it?" Blaise asked, sounding uncomfortable.

"Yeah, since I just asked all of a sudden." Fred said, sounding sheepish.

"I'll let you know as soon as possible," Blaise said.

"Thanks, mate." Fred said before we heard him walking away.

"What. Was.That?" I asked wide-eyed, when I was sure Fred wasn't anywhere near us. Blaise shook his head.

"I honestly have no idea." Blaise said sighing.

"You have to do it." Theo said suddenly.

"W-What!?" Blaise asked wide-eyed. "Why?"

 "Because we need to make sure that this date doesn't go well." I said frowning.

"But I don't want to have to go by myself." He mumbles, shaking his head. "That'd be way too awkward."

"Then go with Susan." Theo suggested, shrugging.

"Eh?" Blaise said blushing lightly. I grinned.

"Yeah, it'll be fun! You don't have to worry, because Theo and I will go too!" I said reassuringly.

"We are?" Theo asked surprised.

"Yes, we have to make absolutely sure that this goes badly." I said rolling my eyes. So it'll be like a triple date! I'm actually excited for it. It's too bad I won't be able to tell Shay about it. Oh well, I can always tell her about it later.

"Do you think this is what Susan was talking about?" Theo asked curiously.

"Probably," I said shrugging.

"H-Hang on! I'm not okay with this plan!" Blaise said frowning at us. He was still blushing too.

"What do you mean?" I asked, confused. "You get to hang out with Susan. That's not a problem is it?"

"Well, no, but," Blaise said looking unsure.

"But nothing." Theo said rolling his eyes. "It's obvious that you do have some feelings for her, right?"

"N-No..." Blaise said adverting his eyes. I rolled my eyes.

"Blaise, it's no use lying to us." I told him shaking my head. Blaise sighed.

"Fine, yes, I have a crush on her." He muttered looking down. I smiled.

"Then this is your chance to get to know her better!" I said optimistically.
