Taken (George Weasley love story)

Taken

~PAIGE P.O.V~

I had Defence Against the Dark Arts with the Ravenclaws first and that was gonna be a blast...stupid stuck up snobs, think they know everything.

Walking through Hogwarts to get to class was easy as pie. All I had to do was follow George which he didn't know about but he'll get over it I suppose.

As we all piled into the classroom I saw an empty seat next to George so I walked up and just sat down, sending my infamous smirk. Sadly it didn't have the effect I was looking for.

"Umm can I help you with something?" He said after a brief and silent staring contest.

"Well," I started, "I just thought I'd sit next to my buddie since I know no one in this class except for you, and I did."

"Uh we're not buddies...I don't even know you." Well that hurt a bit.

"How can you not know me? We met last night...I was wandering around and asked you for directions? Then we went and ate dinner..."

He looked lost and I was getting a bit peeved off at having to repeat what happened. Did a Bludger hit him in the head or something?

"Sorry love, never met you...ohh I know what's happened, you've met George." Yeah this guy needs help.

Obviously seeing my reaction (looking like he was a mad man) he explained how he had a twin brother name George and his name was Fred. This morning George had had gotten into trouble by some guy called Filch and couldn't make the lesson.

"Good morning class, my name is Professor Lupin" aww we have to do work now.

"Today we will be practicing Patronus charms, now this is a very complex spell so I don't want any mucking around today." His eyes lingered on me a tad bit longer than anyone else's and I swear they looked pitiful.

"Everyone chose a partner so you can practice the spell, the incantation is Expecto Patronum, well what are you waiting for? Get too it."

Everyone partnered up with there friends of course and I was the only one left out cause of the odd number of students...oh goody...

"Umm sir?" I half raised my hand in embarrassment and the fact I was to lazy to lift it fully.

"Yes Miss Black?" again with the pitiful eyes.

"Everyone else has partners, so I can't practice." He just seems to contemplate it for a moment and all I want to do is reach over his desk and slap him silly.

"Alright you can practice with me for a bit until Mr Weasley comes in, where would you like to stand?"

Instead of answering I just pointed to a random space and walked over there and surprisingly enough he followed!

About 40 minutes into the lesson I was still practicing with Lupin because it turns out George is in a bit more trouble for having even more Dungbombs on him....

So far I had only been able to produce a silvery mist but I know it had four legs and was fairly big. Lupins was a wolf for some reason but I guess he just likes the animal.

After the bell rang for us to change classes Professor Lupin called me back.

"Paige, could you please come back here at lunch time? I need to to tell you something quite important."

I looked at him strangely but mutters an "ok" just to be nice...he seemed like an alright guy and an awesome Professor anyways.

As I was walking out the door for the second time I heard him muttering to himself.

"I hope she doesn't hate us for this."
