"Don't tell your mother you've been gambling," Bill overhead his father say to his twin brothers as his family made their way slowly down the purple-carpeted stairs."Don't worry, Dad," said Fred gleefully, "we've got big plans for this money. We don't want it confiscated."
Bill smirked as his brothers response, knowing that whatever it was that the twins were up to wasn't good.
The Weasley family were soon caught up in the crowds now flooding out of the stadium and back to their campsites. Bill accidentally bumped into several people due to his mind being a little preoccupied by a certain blonde haired woman. He couldn't seem to get her off his mind and he continued to wonder about her. He knew that it was extremely bold to ask her out on a date, even when he hadn't even spoken more than a few sentences to her, but she was a mystery to him.
However, he was just unable to keep himself from having the words fall out of his mouth. He regretted that she didn't have the chance to give him an answer. The screams from the people enjoying the match and the rush down the steps prevented Bill from receiving a response.
Raucous singing was borne toward them on the night air as they retraced their steps along the lantern-lit path, and the leprechauns kept shooting over their heads, cackling and waving their lanterns. The Irish were ecstatic with their win and had no plans of settling down any time soon. When they finally reached the tents, nobody felt like sleeping at all, and given the level of noise around them, Bill's father agreed that they could all have one last cup of cocoa together before turning in.
To make it easier for his father, Bill strolled over to the small counter in the tent and flicked his wand. Cups flew from the miniscule cupboards and landed gently in front of him. Bill began to use the Aguamenti charm to fill the cups with water, his thoughts continuing to revolve around Aquila Malfoy.
"You might want to stop before you flood the whole tent," Charlie said with amusement.
Bill jumped at the sudden disturbance from his mind and turned to Charlie with his eyebrows drawn together in confusion. He soon realized what his brother was referring to when he looked down, feeling cool water beginning to pool around his feet.
"Shit!" cursed Bill, as he waved his wand once again, cleaning up the mess.
Bill continued to make hot cocoa, putting all of his focus on the task at hand, under the watchful eye of his brother. He felt Charlie's eyes follow him as he began to hand out the drinks to the rest of his family, Harry, and Hermione.
The red headed man ambled to the corner of the worn grey couch and collapsed onto the scratchy material. He was soon joined by Charlie who proceeded to stare at him with a curious expression. Bill finally had enough of his brother's ogling and snapped.
