Chapter 3

Normally I'd jump for joy with it being September 1st, especially being here for the summer. But not this year. My fathers decided I'm to be a spy. Learn anything I can about the Order and Potter.

And also the Weasley's.

That's what made my heart thud.

The Weasley's are practically my second family, like they are to Harry. We could've probably got along if it wasn't for the fact we never spoke, and well my father as well I suppose.

So as I'm apparated to the station, I quickly leave Draco, with the intention of finding a lonely compartment to myself. Unfortunately the twins found me. "Hey, what are you doing on your own in here?" Fred asked as he strangled me in a hug.

"I felt like being alone," I laughed ducking out of his arms. He frowned a little and went slightly pink when George looked over at him.

"Well you know you can never get away from us Letty, not when we've not seen you all summer!" George retorted hugging me as well, "How was your Aunts?"

That was what I had told them, so I wasn't known as a Malfoy, or a Riddle. I was a half-blood and my parents had died fighting death eaters so I lived with my Aunt Maggie who I didn't really get along with. Yeah, I'm a bit of a liar, but it's for their own good…kinda. "It was okay, a bit boring to be honest."

"Mum was disappointed that you didn't come over for summer at all," Fred commented.

George added in an undertone, "Not as much as Fred." Making Fred blush even more.

"Well good, you should miss me," I giggled, "I mean it is moi after all!" After I glared at them as they laughed I added, "So how's the joke stuff coming?"

"Great, Harry gave us his tournament winnings, so business is great, we're looking for premises!" George replied grinning.

"Awesome, how much do I get paid?"

"What serious you want to help?"

"Well obviously!"

What I hadn't noticed, until much later, was that Fred was sitting staring at me, in a non-creepy way, and glaring at his twin as we talked, and I had no idea why.

"Oi, George! Come here!" I called as he walked into the Great Hall for breakfast, for once without his twin.

"You rang?" he said taking the seat next to me.

"Why was Fred acting so weird yesterday?" I asked.

"Uh…he was just…feeling under the weather at the time," George replied looking shiftily uneasy.

"Oh I hope he's okay."

"He is, don't worry," George smiled as Fred walked in and budged into the small space between George and I.

"So that Umbridge woman this morning. Defence will be a different experience this year." Fred said as Professor McGonagall passed out our timetables and we got up and began walking to DADA.

"You're telling me," I commented smiling. We sat in our usual seats at the back of the class, me next to Alicia and Fred and George in the seats to our right. "Late on the first day, "I tutted, "Not a good start." My friends chuckled around me before the door opened.

"Wands away class, and books out," Umbridge squeaked as she walked into the classroom. There were many groans and complaints at this but she silence us all with a look.

"Yeah, this'll be a fun year," Alicia whispered to me sarcastically, "I can tell."
