ELLIE was sitting in the great hall Dumbledore had just announced the students that got petrified weren't petrified anymore. Chase had just sat down at the Hufflepuff table and she smiled when she saw Cedric hugging him.
She looked around the room and noticed that it got much brighter. She smiled and then Jane poked her.
"Theo keeps on looking at you." Jane whispered in her ear. Ellie still hadn't talked to him. Which meant she had to give Fred six sickles and talk to Theo.
Ellie looked over and smiled at Theo and he smiled back at her.
She quickly turned to Luna.
"Did you have a nice first year Luna?" Ellie asked.
"It was wonderful." Luna exclaimed. Then she looked at Ellie. "I would assume you also had an amazing one." Luna spoke.
"Yeah it was pretty good." Ellie replied.
"That's nice." Luna spoke, then she turned around.
"Look I think Chase is trying to find your attention." Luna advised.
Ellie turned to the Hufflepuff table and saw Chase waving at her. She smiled and quickly waved back.
"It was very gloomy without him don't you think." Luna exclaimed.
"Yeah it was." Ellie spoke.
Then she started playing with her food on her plate. She looked over at the Gryffindor table and saw Fred Weasley. He saw her and smiled and she waved. He quickly waved back.
Then she looked away and started having a conversation with Jane.

"ARE you happy Hagrid's back?" George questioned.
"Yeah, yeah it's great." Fred replied looking towards the Slytherin table.
"What's up your butt?" Angelina asked.
"Nothing, I'm just tired." Fred exclaimed.
George just patted Fred on the back.
"Go to sleep, go to sleep, go to sleep little Freddie." George sang, teasing his brother.
Fred quickly glared at him.
"Shut up." Fred shot, George just chuckled.
"Fred you should be happy exams are cancelled." Lee exclaimed.
"Happy? You should be ashamed, these exams are important for your future!" Percy protested.
"Not for quidditch! My dad said they aren't important, only if you want to work at the stupid ministry." Oliver Wood exclaimed.
Percy quickly glared at him.
"You are lucky I don't like violence." Percy spat.
Oliver rolled his eyes and then started talking to Angelina Johnson about quidditch.
"What do you think is going to happen next year?" George asked.
"I don't know, maybe my brother will stop being annoying." Fred exclaimed.
"Hey!" George shot.
Fred just chuckled at him.
"I'm kidding Georgie. I'm talking about Percy." Fred spoke.
George quickly laughed.
"Boys! Be quiet." Percy shot.

"I always knew Lockhart was a fraud." Ellie exclaimed.
"Are you still on this?" Jane asked.
"Yes I told you I'm usually always right." Ellie exclaimed.
"Whatever." Jane shot. "Do you have everything?" Jane asked.
"Yep, the only thing I don't have is this one book I gave to Luna but she's going to give it to me on the train." Ellie exclaimed.
Jane nodded.
"Let's go then." Jane spoke.
The two girls left Ravenclaw tower and walked to where Cedric and Chase were going to meet them.
They found the two boys and Chase ran up to them.
"Hey, I can't believe the year is already over." Chase exclaimed.
"You were petrified for most of it." Jane exclaimed.
"Oh yeah. I forgot about that." Chase exclaimed. Ellie just patted him.
"I can't believe you guys are going to be in your third year. You're growing up so fast." Cedric exclaimed, fake wiping a tear.
"You act like we're children." Jane spoke.
Cedric chuckled.
"I know you aren't children it's just you guys are like my little siblings that's all." Cedric exclaimed. Trapping both Ellie and Chase in a headlock.
"Let go of my head." Ellie spoke.
"Okay." Cedric spoke.
Ellie quickly glared at him.
"Thank you." She shot then grabbed six sickles that were in her pocket.
"Come on we need to get on the express." Jane exclaimed.
Ellie was about to go in then she saw a redhead she knew.
George Weasley.
"Just a second. I'll be right there, save me a seat." Ellie exclaimed.
"I'll be in compartment 24." Cedric yelled out. Ellie nodded and poked the redhead.
"Hey Ellie." George greeted.
"Where's your brother?" Ellie asked.
"Oh he's right there." George pointed, he was with Angelina Johnson and Oliver Wood.
Ellie looked over at George.
"Thanks." Ellie muttered, then she walked over to Fred.
"Oliver could you shut up." Fred shot. Ellie rolled her eyes and tapped his shoulder.
He quickly turned around and looked at her.
"Hey Elle. What do you need?" Fred asked.
"I have to give you these." Ellie exclaimed, and she held out her hands with the six sickles in them.
"Oh thanks." Fred exclaimed, then he rolled them from her hand.
Then there was a shock.
"Hey!" Ellie shot.
"Sorry what can you say I guess I'm a very shocking person." Fred teased.
Ellie just gave him a look.
"Was that not funny?" Fred asked Angelina.
"Hilarious." Angelina said with a stern face.
"You heard it here, it was hilarious." Fred exclaimed.
"You're delusional." Ellie spoke, then she quickly walked away.
***
FRED watched Ellie leave and Angelina stared at him.
"What are those for?" Angelina asked him.
"I'm guessing it was a bet." Oliver spoke.
"It was for a deal not a bet!" Fred shot.
"Well what does she have to do then?" Angelina asked.
"Nothing." Fred spoke.
George quickly walked up.
"Hey did Ellie come here? She was looking for you." George asked.
"Yeah I just saw her." Fred advised, putting the sickles in his pocket.
"Okay then. Ready?" George asked.
"Yeah, let's go." Fred spoke.
The twins went to go sit in a compartment. Fred quickly started playing with the six sickles.
"Georgie." Fred whispered.
"Yeah." George said.
"I just got six sickles!" Fred exclaimed.
"Awesome. Can I get them?" George queried.
"No!" Fred shot.
Angelina and Lee quickly walked in.
"What are you two fighting about?" Angelina asked and she sat down.
"Fred has six sickles and he won't give me them." George exclaimed.
"I have an even better idea. We all split it." Lee exclaimed.
"I doubt I'd be even." Angelina spoke.
Lee just rolled his eyes.
"I'll be right back. I have to see someone." Fred exclaimed.
"Do you want me to come?" George asked.
"No it's fine." Fred exclaimed.
Fred quickly left and looked for Ellie's compartment; he couldn't find it; he did find Daphne Greengrass and Blaise Zabini.
He knocked on their door and Daphne opened it.
"What?" Daphne shot.
"Do you know where Ellie's sitting?" Fred asked.
"Why?" Daphne queried.
"Well because I need to help her with something." Fred exclaimed.
"With what?" Daphne questioned.
"She's in compartment 13." Blaise answered.
"Blaise!" Daphne shot.
"What, you don't need to be so nosy Daphne." Blaise exclaimed.
"Well er thanks. I'm going to go." Fred spoke.
Then he headed towards compartment 13.
He quickly knocked on it.
Chase Green opened the door.
"Can I help you?" Chase asked.
"Yeah I'm here for Ellie." Fred spoke.
"Ellie." Chase spoke. "You're friends here." Chase exclaimed.
Ellie looked up and saw Fred.
"Hey, can we talk." Fred spoke. Then he saw people in her compartment staring at her. "In private." Fred exclaimed.
Ellie nodded and she got out and closed the compartment.
"Yes?" Ellie asked.
"Come with me." Fred exclaimed.
Ellie quickly followed him.
"Where are we going?" Ellie asked.
"To Theo." Fred answered.
"Fred—." Ellie started.
"We had a deal." Fred exclaimed. Ellie shut her mouth and just rolled her eyes.
He knocked back on Daphne and Blaise's compartment.
"What do you want now?" Daphne asked.
"Daphne." Ellie spoke.
"Hey Ellie, what can I help you with?" Daphne asked.
"Really? It's like I'm invisible." Fred complained.
"Oh shut up. What are you even doing here anyway?" Daphne asked.
"I'm here to help!" Fred shot.
Daphne quickly looked at Ellie and she nodded at her.
"Fine, what do you need?" Daphne asked.
"Theo." Fred exclaimed.
Daphne looked at him and walked back in.
Theo came out and looked at him.
"You two follow me." Fred exclaimed.
"Where are we going?" Theo asked.
He quickly walked over to Ron's compartment.
"Ron and Harry. Out!" Fred exclaimed.
"Why? Harry saved the school again." Ron protested.
"You act like I care. Out." Fred exclaimed.
"Come on Ron, we need to go see Hermione anyway." Harry Potter exclaimed.
"Fine." Ron shot. "I hate you." Ron exclaimed.
"Same here." Fred replied.
"In." Fred exclaimed.
He opened the door and Ellie and Theo sat down. He quickly sat next to Ellie.
"You two need to talk it out." Fred exclaimed. "So I am going to wait outside until you talk it out. Got it?" Fred exclaimed. Then he left and quickly stood by the door.
***
"SO." Ellie said.
"So." Theo spoke. "What does Fred mean?" Theo questioned.
"He thinks we should talk because of what you told me." Ellie exclaimed.
"You guys seem to be close." Theo stated.
"I guess." Ellie replied. "That's not the point though. Besides, he's right and we both know it." Ellie spoke.
"Thank you!" Fred yelled.
"Stop listening Fred!" Ellie yelled back.
Theo quickly looked at her.
"So do you need to tell me something?" Theo asked.
"Yeah, we'll kind of. I just want to know something." Ellie advised.
Then she grabbed her wand.
"Muffliato." Ellie cast. "Do you still like me now?" Ellie asked.
Theo sighed for a moment.
"If I'm being honest, yes." He replied.
Ellie thought for a moment.
"Well maybe we should just start as friends and see if anything else happens." Ellie exclaimed.
Theo nodded.
"Yeah, and just so you know. I'm not just some guy who likes a girl, I'm actually a very interesting person." Theo exclaimed.
Ellie chuckled for a second.
"Great, make sure to put that on your applications." Ellie spoke.
Theo smiled and quickly walked out.
Ellie walked out and looked at Fred.
"I'm assuming you talked it out, but did you really have to put a silencing spell?" Fred asked.
"Oh shut it nosy." Ellie shot.
Fred quickly leaned back.
"Does he still like you?" Fred asked.
"Yeah." Ellie replied.
"Do you like him?"
Fred queried with a smirk.
"I don't know we said we'd be friends and see if we'd be anything more." Ellie exclaimed.
"Oh that's nice." Fred spoke.
"Yeah." Ellie replied.
Then she quickly left. She felt weird after she said that to Fred. She didn't know why. Did she hurt him? She was just overthinking things. She was definitely sure of it.
She walked in her compartment and saw Cedric, Chase, and Jane.
"Hey what happened?" Cedric asked.
"Fred made me talk to Theo." Ellie exclaimed.
"Oh, that's nice. Who's Theo?" Chase asked.
Ellie chuckled.
"Chase I have something to give to you." Ellie exclaimed.
She quickly grabbed the box in her bags with her letters to Chase.
"Here. Open it when you get home." Ellie instructed. Chase nodded.
"So that's what Weasley did. I thought he was going to say he liked you." Cedric spoke.
"What?" Ellie queried.
"I don't know It was just my stupid head." Cedric explained.
Ellie just looked at him.
"You're disgusting." Ellie spoke.
"Thank you." Cedric thanked.
"You're also weird." Jane stated.
"Okay when Jane does it it's so mean." Cedric exclaimed.
***
"FRED! You're back." George spoke.
"Yeah." Fred replied. "I had to make a couple stops." Fred exclaimed.
Fred saw the lady from the trolley.
"Anything from the trolley dears?" She asked, politely.
"No thank you—." George started but Lee cut him off.
"I'll have a chocolate frog." Lee exclaimed, then walked up.
Angelina quickly walked in with Katie Bell.
"Your back." George spoke.
"Yeah I am. I'm sure you guys missed me." Angelina spoke.
George just gave her a look.
"She scares me." George whispered.
"I think you're soft." Fred scoffed.
"Rude." George spoke.
Fred rolled his eyes. He thought about what Ellie said.
"I don't know we said we'd be friends and see if we'd be anything more." Ellie exclaimed.
He didn't know why but those words kept coming back to him. It's not like he liked her, it was like he was overprotective. It's not like she even liked Theo. Why was he jealous of him?
He didn't like her, he knew that he didn't like her. She was just a friend. A nice friend.
"Fred!" George shot.
"What?" Fred asked.
"I said excited for fifth year?" Lee asked.
"Yeah, no one will know what hit them." Fred smirked.
