"Uh, yeah. I stopped going to classes a while back. Believe it or not, that's not good for the GPA. I had, like, a 26 average or something," I said like it wasn't a big deal.
"Damn, that's not great," he admitted. He rounded the corner into Percy's room. I could hear Percy fighting with the twins in their room. "Why'd you do that?" he asked teasingly.
"My dad died," I answered honestly.
"Oh, shit. I'm sorry," he said and his face dropped.
"It's alright," I dismissed. "Seriously, stop looking at me like that."
"I can't help it," he said.
"You're making it worse. You look like a wounded puppy," I whined. "Don't be like everyone else. I'm sick of people treating me differently because of this whole thing. Treat me normally."
"You mean, like flirt with you a little bit?"
"Well, I, uh," I stuttered.
He grinned at me. "You're blushing."
***
Seventh-year Y/N Y/L/N is what the professors would call a prime example of wasted potential, with an impressively bad 26% average. As far as she's concerned, she is past academic redemption. However, Dumbledore and McGonagall decide to introduce a new opportunity for struggling students, a scholarship that covers a trip abroad.
Y/N is desperately in need of this scholarship if she wants to graduate from Hogwarts, but she is struggling through more than anyone knows.
The only thing that is keeping her going is the family she's found with the Weasleys. They're an odd bunch and that's exactly why she fits in. Because she doesn't.
Things are simple with the Weasley family. That is until she crosses a line with one of the Weasley boys, a path that can never be retraced.
Y/N finds herself trapped in a web of lies that she had created. One spark and everything she has worked for could be gone in an instant.
And she's playing with fire.
