Title: Pranks

House: Slytherin

"(Y/N) (L/N)!" Professor McGonagall yelled, holding your breath you walked up the steps to the old, creaky wooden stool and tatty brown hat that would determine your families future views on you. Turning to face the crowd you sat yourself down, staring out at the hundreds of pupils all in black robes on four separate long tables. Hufflepuff, they stood for hard work, patience, justice, and loyalty. Ravenclaw, the house that valued intelligence, learning, and wit. Slytherin, they were ambitious, cunning, they were leaders, and to top it off they're resourceful. Finally, Gryffindor, the house you dreamed for... courage, bravery, nerve and chivalry, all the things you stood for in your everyday life; not just that but your parents would be distraught if you were sorted into any of the other houses.

The sorting hat sat upon your head, taking its time to decide your fate. Your heart beating out of your chest "Hmmm.... I believe this is quite strange... you want to be a Gryffindor in your mind... you've almost trained yourself to believe this is your role..." the hat spoke cautiously, your breathing picked up slightly as you tried to keep your cool. "However I do believe Slytherin may be where your heart truly belongs..." he continued, staring at the ground you closed your eyes 'Please... this is all I ask for...' you thought, your mind void of any thought except for making your way into Gryffindor. All the battles you would fight, all the potions you would brew, every spell you would learn. "right then... SLYTHERIN!" the hat yelled, tears welled up in your eyes as you rose from the seat to make your way to the snake table.

This was everything you'd never wanted, your luck had to be against you. As you found an empty seat at the long table you were greeted by new faces with green ties, staring down at your hands you played with your thumbs. A few announcements were made before you were led by a prefect to your new home, to say the least, you were disappointed but you knew this may have had a greater meaning behind it. Unlike all the other students at Hogwarts Slytherins who lived down in the dungeons, it didn't help that it seemed darker than the rest of the castle down there, your fear of the darkness creeping in on your already anxiety-filled mind.

~Time skip to your third year~

Hogwarts was as strange as ever, last year you had bumped into a strange muggle-born girl you had remembered from the house sorting. Her name was Hermione Granger, she always seemed to be getting into trouble with these two other boys; one of them was called Harry, he was quite charming, his life always seemed to be full of dangerous circumstances that he would drag his friends into. However the other boy was called Ron, he was... funny to say the least, Hermione had told you he never seemed to stop eating. He was related to the twins, the younger brother of Fred and George, both well-known pranksters.

Speaking of the devil, you suddenly felt yourself getting lifted into someone's arms in a bridal manner. Letting out a squeal of surprise you looked up to see Fred who was now running with you in his arms, a mischievous grin on his face accompanied by a cheeky glint in his eyes. It wasn't the first time he had done this, it seemed to occur more often than you'd like "Hello (Y/N)!" he spoke cheerfully running down another long, seemingly endless corridor. "Hi Fred" you sighed softly, it wasn't that you didn't want to see him, in fact, you really did, however, you were more hoping to see Ron of all people. He gave you a small pout "I'm hurt! you haven't noticed anything different about me!" he joked, you hadn't the slightest idea what he was talking about, "What's changed? you're in the same uniform you are always in, your hair is the same just slightly longer than the last time I saw you..." you took a breath in "and you still smell like liquorice snaps" you pondered, Fred looked at you with a raised eyebrow "You make that sound as if it's a bad thing!" he exclaimed, you gave him a dry chuckle.

His run slowly turned into a walk as he approached two figures, paying closer attention you saw it was Ron and George. "So I see you found the princess?" George spoke, Princess was his favourite thing to call you, he knew it always made you flustered to some extent. You laughed softly shaking your head at his remark, a pale blush covering your cheeks before turning to look at Fred with a slight pout "Freddyyyy put me down pleeaasseee" you whined, Fred, laughed quietly before placing you down "Yes your majesty" he cheekily remarked; shooting him a playful glare you turned to Ron, who was way too close for comfort. Stepping back quickly you shot the now blushing redhead a grin, "Hi Ron" you greeted only to get a mumbled "Hello" in return, his vision darting around as he tried to forget the awkward situation that had just occurred.

The awkward situation seemed to calm down after that point, the three of you ended up walking around the castle cracking jokes, but after a while, Ron had gone off to hang out with Harry and George had gone off on some strange quest to get the attention of a girl, leaving you alone with Fred. It was weird but not uncomfortable, you'd had a small crush on him since you two had met. After a short while of walking the two of you ended up at the black lake, it wasn't unusual for the two of you to end up here. It was again normal, except normally you would also be with someone else. Honestly, you and Fred had only hung out together alone a handful of times, you could probably count them on your fingers.

You sat down close to the edge of the lake, peering out into the dark waters ahead as you felt Fred sit next to you carefully leaning his head on your shoulder while you both listened to the sound of the wind rustling through the trees, along with the chirping of birds that incased themselves within them. "I like this..." he whispered, you guessed he didn't get much quiet with his siblings always around and with being one of the biggest pranksters in school that wouldn't help, continuously getting in trouble. "(Y/N) I've been meaning to ask you something for a while now" his voice seemed distant, speaking like it was a dream you'd once had "What is it?" you were curious, he had never really been this way with you. "Right... if you had to choose... out of everyone in Hogwarts who would you want..." you were on the edge of your seat, was this the time? was he finally going to ask you out? "to prank" he looked at you with the same stupid grin he always did.

Sighing internally you thought for a minute "Well... I would be honoured to prank a man such as yourself" you joked glancing at him out the corner of your eye "Oh really?" he spoke stretching out the 'y' sound before chuckling softly "how would you prank me?" he asked, you quickly shook your head giggling "A good prankster never reveals their prank now do they?" the rhetorical question seemed to drive the boy mad. He wouldn't stop asking how you would do it, how you would prank him sometimes even giving examples on how to do it. Starting to get frustrated he pinned you down to the ground, "(Y/N) please tell me" his voice firm, demanding... yet somehow sweet and pleading. Your cheeks began to flush deep red at the position you were in, Fred not seeming to mind as much, instead, he seemed to be enjoying it; a small amount of blush added colour to his cheeks as his eyes wandered up and down your body.

You both stared deeply into each other's eyes, almost as gravity was pulling him down his lips slowly made their way onto yours. Sharing a gentle kiss that slowly turned into a heated make-out session, sparks flew with every movement the two of you made. After what seemed like seconds but was most definitely minutes he pulled away, his hand placed against your cheek gently analysing your face as if it was the first time he had ever seen it. "Fred..." you whispered but you were cut off by the ginger boy "I love you... (Y/N) I've loved you since you first spoke to me... at that moment houses didn't matter anymore... the rivalry that they held was nothing compared to the need I had for you to be in my life" his words were heartfelt, he had spewed his heart out to you... this was the happily ever after you never expected... but lovingly accepted. You kissed his cheek, moving up to his ear "I love you too Fred".
