Fifth Year:

"This is my last warning, if you forget anything here, I'm not going to bring it back for you." I threw Roxanne her black shoes as she packed her stuff.

"Well, that's nice of you."

I continued brushing my wet hair. Luckily the whole slime was gone after using shampoo four times.

The door suddenly burst open and, Fred and Albus entered the room.

"Have you ever heard such a thing called knocking ?" I asked.

Fred ignored me and stared at Roxanne. "Rox, could you please tell Albus that the blue t-shirt with black blood prints on it is mine?"

Roxanne couldn't even open her mouth when Albus joined the yelling.

"For the last time, Fred. They are mine. I bought them three years ago!"

"No! I bought it last summer with Roxanne!"

"Okay, okay! Stop yelling!" Roxanne yelled.

Teddy and James were passing the room when they saw the three yelling and decided to watch the show.

James' hair was also wet, which meant he probably just got out of the shower.

His blue band aid was still on his forehead, his eyebrow was also a little bruised now.

My small bag was next to me, so I leaned and took out a cream from inside.

"Potter!" I called and he turned his attention to me. "Use this!" I threw the cream and he managed to catch it, only using his one hand. I showed my one eyebrow to make sure he actually understood what I meant.

He looked at the cream, than back at me and nodded.

"Fred are you sure it was last summer?" Roxanne asked.

Fred laughed. "I am sure , Roxanne. It's my shirt!"

The door bell rang which made me get out of my trans.

"I'll get it." I ran downstairs without looking back, away from the drama.

The bell rang again and I groaned.

"I'm coming. Gee, wait a little."

I opened the door, looked at the boy standing in front of me with a smile on his face, and closed the door again.

As I turned to go back upstairs, the bell rang again.

I rolled my eyes and prayed that he will go away.

But he didn't.

After several knocking, ringing the door bell, and Fred shouting "FOR GODRIC SAKE, LILY OPEN THE DOOR" from upstairs,

I opened the door.

"What do you want?" I asked without any emotions.

"My Lily flower is that the right way to talk to me?"

"You're right." he smiled as I closed the door to his face again. "Better."

"Haha" he knocked on the door again. I banged my head on it a few times before opening it.

"How can I help you Rogers?" I heard footsteps behind me.

"Who is it, Lils?" Roxanne whispered.

"Just Rogers. I'll deal with it, you continue packing up." I whispered back with a half smile.

She nodded and left.

"I heard you're leaving early." He looked at me up and down. His black hair was a bit longer but his expression was still the same.

I looked at him with a confused face. "Did you put cameras in my house or something?" I looked back and checked the ceiling.

He chuckled and patted my shoulder. "No, not yet. Would you like to grab a coffee before you leave? We will miss each other ..."

I looked at him up and down with my eyebrows raised. "Are on something?"

Maybe he's high.

"No? So what's your answer?"

"Is it like ... a date?" I asked disgusted.

"Of course it is."

"Then no." I tried to close the door but he held the knob.

"What if it wasn't a date? Would you say yes then?"

"No."

"Oh come on, it will be fun. We can go to the cinema or something."

"I said no."

I heard someone coming down the stairs. I looked behind to see James and Hugo. They looked at the door and I just shrugged my shoulders saying it wasn't important.

He smiled and pulled out his muggle phone. "So what time should I pick you up?"

I rolled my eyes. "Never. A no means no. Are you thick or something?"

"Why not? I promise you will like it."

"Bye Jake." I slowly closed the door as he kept telling me how the weather was perfect for a picnic date.

I locked the door behind me, just in case, and went back upstairs to join the others.

*****

"I'll see you two tomorrow then" I gave Luna and Rose a hug before they disappeared in the fireplace.

I said good bye to Fred and Hugo, and they went after the girls. Roxanne gave me a bone crashing hug and played with my cheeks for a good five minutes before disappearing in the green fire. 

And now there was only Albus, James and Teddy was left. Albus smiled and gave me a hug before whispering so no one else could hear. Which, he did a terrible job with.

"You know I'm the better Potter, right? It's not too late to come back from your terrible mistake..."

As we broke away from the hug, James smacked him in the head, which made him enter the fireplace faster and leave. 

"One day without you..." Teddy sighed as I turned to hug him too. "Sounds like hell." I rolled my eyes and gave him a hug.

He entered the fireplace and waved one last time. "The Burrow!" Green fire covered the fireplace and Teddy was gone.

"One day without you..." James mimicked. "Sounds like one way ticket to Heaven." 

I sighed and looked at him up and down. Roxanne found a spell to make the big purple bruise on his eyebrow go away. And it actually worked.

"Are you trying to give Mrs. Weasley a heart attack with leaving that band aid on your forehead?" I pointed the blue band aid that was still on his head.

"Actually, no. But it makes me look cool. I might keep it for tomorrow-" I cut him off.

"Let me guess, and use it to get attention from girls?"

He clapped his hands twice. "Exactly."

He put his trunk in the fireplace and turned back to me, "Are you sure your parents are coming back today?"

"Yeah, they sent a letter earlier. All good."

He nodded, "The Burrow!"
