CHAPTER EIGHTEEN
STATIC ELECTRICITY
[18]song: Electric Love by BØRNS
+++++++++++++++Everyone was practicing their disarming and stunning spell, but Lin sat down on the ground and pulled out her sketchbook. She began to draw the scene, kids and teenagers alike pointing wands at each other but happily smiling and laughing.
She made the background the half pillars and mirrors. When it was finished she took a piece of muggle tape and taped it to a wall where their list and a photo of Cedric was and some newspaper clippings.
"Woah." Fred said when he approached her. "I didn't know you were so talented. Blimey, this looks great!"
"Thanks Frederick."
He stepped closer to her ear and whispered, "Do you wanna sneak out again tonight?"
"Sure why not."
After the DA meeting everyone goes back to their own common room but Fred drags Lin away. George stops them.

"Okay! Use protection kids!" George laughs then walks away to follow Lee like a puppy dog.
Fred resumes to drag Lin down the corridor. He leads her up the astronomy tower.
When they get there, a picnic blanket and some lit candles are on the ground.
Lin looks to him confused. "What's all this?"
"I just thought we could have some alone time and to look at the stars." Fred sat down on the blanket and she followed suit. Lin shivered slightly. "Are you cold?" Fred asked.
"Just a little. It's fine." Lin shrugged it off.
Fred pulled off his Weasley jumper. "Here." He handed it to her. She hesitantly pulled it over her head. The bright orange 'F' shown on the front compared to the violet purple sweater. It was oversized on her, but that's just how she liked them. And it smelt like Fred too. Fireworks and chocolate. "It looks way better on you anyways..." He said, more so to himself.
Lin stared at the stars and admired them, wishing she were as bright and beautiful.
"Lin...."
