"I HATE VALENTINE'S DAY," Lee Jordan had mumbled on Saturday morning at the Gryffindor table, the day before the 14th of February. "I know Hogsmeade today is going to be loaded with stupid couples going on stupid dates-"
"Lee, you're just jealous you can't get any girls to agree to go on a date with you," George laughs from beside him, earning him a good sock in the arm. "At least I'm not going for a girl who hates me—"
"Oi, she doesn't hate me," Fred pipes up across the table, pointing his fork at Lee. Both George and Lee raise their eyebrows skeptically in response. "Okay, she isn't the most fond of me..."
"Yeah, especially considering all that time she spends with Barrett," Lee says, looking down at his plate of nothing but toast. Fred immediately whips his head around to the table across the room, where Willow was of course sitting with Cameron Barrett, Dawn, and Conrad. "Are they even a couple?"
"Not sure," Fred sighs, turning back around quickly after seeing Willow glance in his direction.
"Well, are you planning on asking?" Lee raises his eyebrows, but Fred shakes his head. "No,"
"Whatever then. Have fun watching her slowly drift away..."
"Not talking about this Slytherin again, are you?" Percy Weasley says as he's walking by their part of the table.
"Shut up, twat," Fred sighs.
"Yeah, don't you have a Prefect's table to attend to?" George adds. Percy rolls his eyes. "I'm just warning you. With all this heir of Slytherin going on, you might want to watch who you're associating with."
With that, Percy walks away to the Prefect's table. A few seats down, Olympia Jean had overheard the whole conversation.
"Hey, Fred," She was leaning their way now, speaking just loud enough for them to hear. Fred turns his head, and his eyebrows knit together a bit at this random girl all of a sudden speaking to her. He soon recognizes her to be Oliver's girlfriend.
"Just so you know," Olyimpia slides closer to them on the bench. "Willow and Cameron aren't dating."
Fred glances back towards George and Lee, who's jaws had both gone slack a bit. "Thanks for uh, letting me know... Oliver's girlfriend."
Olympia laughs. "I'm Olympia."
She slides back down to where she had been sitting before, And Fred stands up abruptly. "I have to go get ready for this Hogsmeade trip. I'll see you both later"
