Oh Freddie Boy.

Little Secret

A few days had past and she had only seen Cedric in the common room. It wasn't as awkward as she thought it was going to be but she still tried to avoid him as much as possible. She spent most of her time with Fred in her room or in the Great Hall with her brothers. Even with everything that had been going on she still made time to see her family. Scotty spent most of his free time on the Quidditch pitch, he was trying to better his skills for next years tryouts. Quidditch was all he seemed to talk about lately, that and Angelina.

"She's a wicked fast flyer." He would purr, "Fastest I've ever seen! She's been helping me train after classes, she says that I could possibly take her position when she leaves next year."

Addie watched him as he blushed when he talked about her. She could tell that he had a crush on her and if here memory served her right it had been his first crush. Everyone had assumed that Ginny had been his first crush, but he didn't talk about her the way he talked about Angelina. Ginny was his first friend at Hogwarts just like the twins had been for Addie. There was a familiarity with the Weasleys, a comfort in their presence. Everyone loved the Weasleys and the Stewart family was lucky enough to be able to befriend them.

"I'm really hoping that if I can play well in every position then I can be captain... Angelina has been the best coach." He began to trail off, feeling like no one was listening to him. Their little family sat at the same table everyday and swapped stories and jokes while they ate lunch. Charlie and Jude were working on Herbology homework, well, Jude was explaining the assignment to Charlie who had neglected to complete it the night before. Addie had noticed that Scotty was starting to quiet down.

"Hey.. Scott. I'm still listening. I'm really glad that you are taking quidditch so seriously. I'm proud of you." She gave him a slight smile while she reached out to grab his hand.

"I'm just a little worried about how much time you've been spending with Angelina. She is 3 years older than you."

"So?" He snapped, pulling his hand out of Addies grasp.

"So... she's 17 and you're 13..."

"I'll be 14 in a month."

"Okay, still... she's not going to date a 14 year old, that's just weird Scott."

His eyes narrowed as he looked at her, "You don't know that! We happen to spend everyday together, and she always tells me how great of a player I am! And besides, she's not with George anymore." Scotty's voice slightly echoed in the Great Hall. He then lowered his head and let out a quiet sigh, realizing that he was overreacting.

Addies eyes widened as the news of George and Angelina not being together was a shock. Fred nor George had said anything about their break up.

"... I'm not trying to date her anyways. I just like hanging out with her, Ginny likes her too. But we both know that she's older than us... I'm allowed to have a crush Addie."

Addies mind was spinning at the new information.

"Wait... Angelina and George aren't together anymore? And you and Ginny both have a crush on Angelina? Does Angelina know that? I hope you two aren't making her uncomfortable..."

Scotty rolled his eyes, "No, Angelina doesn't know. We don't plan on telling her. We just like playing quidditch with her so we're not going to ruin it by telling her we have a crush... please don't say anything."

"Scott I would never... okay. I love you and Ginny. I just wanted to make sure you were being mature about it... and when did George and Angelina break up?" Addie was genuinely confused, George had left the common room last night because he said he was going to meet Angelina in the library.
