The Potter Twins

9.

The silence that surrounded the two wasn't exactly comfortable, but it wasn't particularly uncomfortable either. Every now and then Draco would curse under his breath about Buckbeak, which only made Hailey upset. Hagrid had told him that its not safe to just walk up to a hippogriff without bowing, but he did anyways. Maybe the scratch that Buckbeak had left in his arm would leave him with some dignity and common sense. There were just entering the building as Draco decided to break the silence between them.

"So you and Blaise huh?" He said giving the girl a smirk which only made her give him a confused look back to him. She quickly tightened her grip on his arm and threw her other hand behind his back, hoping it would make it easier for the two to get up the stairs.

"What about us?" She asked as she struggled to get him up the stairs. She doesn't know why he couldn't walk himself, after all Buckbeak had only scratched his arm. Its not like it made him uncapable of walking.

"You guys seem.. close." He says as they reach the floor that the hospital wing was on. She looked up from her feet and gave him a quick glance before walking him to the hospital wing.

"Well yea, were bestfriends." She says giggling, ignoring the fact that Draco had whipped his head down so he could look at her.

"No I mean, you guys have been really touchy. Do you guys like each other?" That's when she couldn't help it no more and started laughing. Draco having the opposite reaction just stood there confused.

"You really think that we like each other.. ahaha." Draco furrowed his eyebrows and looked up, his eyes meeting the eyes of the one and only Madame Pomphrey aka the school nurse.

"Ahh, what do we have here?" She said turning her attention to the girl that was currently struggling to keep Draco standing up right.

"Just a small scratch on his arm. Hes just being a drama queen." She says shrugging her shoulders lightly, causing Draco to stick his tongue out and blow a raspberry at her. The girl smiles and walks Draco to one of the beds, in which he sits down and waits for Madame Pomphrey to tend to his arm. In order to prevent anymore talk, Hailey left the Hospital Wing and quickly headed to the Gryffindor common room awaiting for the arrival of her brother. Although it seemed like forever it had only taken him ten minutes to finally get up to the portrait and meet eyes with his sisters. They greeted each other and Harry had invited her into the common room. Although Harry got looks and glares from some of the other house members they decided to shrug it off and go on their ways which made Hailey feel a little better. Harry had dismissed himself to his room so he could put his things away, so Hailey just sat down on the sofa by the fire. She stared at the flames as they bounce carelessly until her two favorite red headed twins plopped themselves down next to her.

"Do you notice something out of place Georgie?" Fred asked his brother with a goofy smile which caused Hailey to smile as well even though her eyes didn't leave the flames that lye in front of her.

"ah yes well of course I do. Who wouldn't notice a small pecky git just sitting in our common room Freddie?" Hailey's mouth drew open in an 'O' shaped as she pretended to be hurt.

"Im so offended." She said clutching her heart and pouting at the two. They looked at the girl that sat between them as she looked at them and smiled.

"Only joking you bum." George says mirroring her expression and elbowing her playfully.

"Of course, you know we love you.. after all.." Fred says looking around the common room and lowering his head to her ear level. "You are our favorite potter after all." He said with a wink and jumped off the couch. "well, we have some professors to prank isn't that right George?"
