The Potter Triplets: book 1 (a George Weasley love story)

Chapter 7: My first flying lesson

~the next day~
I awoke to Hermione shaking me, "Soph, we need to go to have breakfast". "No, go away. I don't want too, just let me sleep". "How long do you think you are going to sleep?" she asked me. "till forever, so shut up and go away" I told her. I know I'm a cranky bitch, but no one and I mean no one can wake me up in the morning and can get away with it without me saying curse words to them. Then I felt my blankets being ripped of me, then I just curled into a ball to keep warm. Then my pillow was suddenly gone, I swear that someday I'm going to hex her. I still didn't move, so then she just rolled me of my bed. "HERMIONE!" I screamed at her when I had hit the floor. "yes, what's wrong?" she asked me while looking innocently. "You just rolled me on the floor", "yeah, I needed you to wake up. We need to have breakfast before we're late to class". "I'm not coming", then she had a look of mischief in her eyes. Oh no, Hermione and mischief is like Max, Harry and me and no trouble. It's just impossible, it's not right. And my suspicions were right when she said "if you don't wake up I will send Fred and George to wake you. I think you can still remember the last time when you didn't listen to me, do you?" Damn it Mione, "alright alright, don't do it. I'm up". "Great now you can wake Cassidy up", I went to her and said "YO CASSIDY, WAKE UP YOU LAZY ASS." She jumped up at the sound of my voice and fell on the floor. I laughed and she playfully glared at me. We changed and we went down to the great hall to eat. Fred and George saw me and they said "Are our eyes betraying us or is it Sophie who's awake before half past seven in the morning", then they gasped like it was a miracle or so. Well technically it is, I love sleeping. So the chance I would come downstairs before 6:30 is like 1 in a million. "Hahaha guys, I'm laughing my ass of. And now move over before I murder somebody. And with somebody I mean two identical red heads, who are sitting in front of me". They gulped and then they said "good morning miss. Pranking Queen." And they stood up from their bench and did a little bow, "thank you my peasants. Now you may sit". Then they sat, and I sat next to George and Cassidy sat across from us. "Damn Soph, I know you would kill someone but I didn't think it would be the twins. I thought that you would murder Draco, and seriously you would murder someone without me. Oh hell no miss Sophie Potter that's our thing, so we will do that together" Cassidy said while throwing her hand in the air for a dramatic effect. I laughed "Yes miss Quesadilla, I promise you that if I murder someone that you're the first one I call", "If, I think you mean when" she said smirking. Then George lifted me up, "hey Weasley, what the hell are you doing?". "Relax Soph, were not going to hurt you. Were not stupid." "oh yeah, I don't know yet" I said to them sarcastically. They rolled their eyes and then George sat me down between the two of them, "So little one, did we hurt ya?". "Well, You did hurt me. 'Little One' is not a nice term for naming a girl". "Then I'm sorry." "okay, I don't care", "Soph eat a pizza slice" George told me. "Why?" "because you're cranky in the morning". Then he gave me a slice of pizza, and said "better". "Better" I replied to him. We laughed and then I ate the rest of my breakfast, yeah you heard me right pizza for breakfast. Everyone, even the teachers, know about my cranky mood in the morning and Harry and Max told the teachers that I will only calm down when I get enough sleep or pizza. So professor Dumbledore told the house elves to make me pizza in the morning, it's pretty funny if you think about it. Then the mail came and everyone got something, but of course me and my brothers wouldn't get something because the only family we have hates us. Then Neville got an owl from his grandma, the owl had a little package bind to his leg. "Hey Neville, what did you get?" I asked him. He unpacked the box and inside there was a red little round plasma thingy, it looked a bit like a crystal boll from a soothsayer. "I've got no idea" he told me. Then Hermione's eyes lit up and that's when you know that she got an idea, she said "I know what it is, it's a Rememberall." "What the hell is a Rememberall?" Hermione rolled her eyes at my question like it was obvious and Cassidy said "a Rememberall is a clear crystal ball that shows red smoke when you've forget something." "So it's perfect for Neville" Fred said jokingly, I slapped him on his arm "Fred, that's not nice. Apologise to Neville, NOW." He cowered away and went to Neville "Neville, I'm sorry" "thanks Fred, it's okay". Then Neville turned to me and said "thank you Sophie, for being such a great friend". "Aw Neville, of course. Your one of my best friends already, and if Malfoy did something to you again just tell me and I will break all of his bones okay" I said while hugging him. "Thank you Sophie, you're the best friend everyone could wish for." "Yes, I knew it. Take that Cassidy, I'm one of the best friends you could wish for. So if I was you I would be nice to me", she rolled her eyes and laughed sarcastically. I love Neville, he's so sweet, and no not like that he's just like a brother to me like Max, Harry, Ron and Fred. But back to the point, his Rememberall turned red. "You know, I think it's a great present only I don't know what I've forgotten". "Maybe its Trevor, he's always on the lose. It's all okay, you just need to remember to put on clothes and the rest doesn't matter." The others at the table were laughing at my comment and Cassidy was laughing the hardest "What the hell is that for advice? 'You only need to remember to put on clothes and the rest doesn't matter', that's one of the most worst advice I've heard". "Yeah well, when I was at muggle school there was a boy who was late and he came in the class room but he forgot his pants. So the whole year he got bullied, I'm just saying" I said while shrugging. Then it was time for my first fly lessen with the rest of the first years, unfortunately I got this class with the Slytherins. We gathered around on the large field in the courtyard, then madam Hooch came and she told us to stand next to our brooms. We did and then she instructed us to held our hands above our broom and say "up". I did and the broom shot up immediately, just like Max and Harry's brooms. Hermione had a hard time on getting the broom up, but you can't be good in everything. She constantly said "up" but the broom only moved a bit but it didn't go up. Cassidy just didn't work so she gave up, but every time when she would give up I would poke her in her stomach. "Ouch Sophie, quit it" "Uhmm, no" then I went on. "Okay okay, I will try again", then she tried it again and the broom went up. She was smiling like crazy and then she turned to me, then we high fived each other. Malfoy got his broom up too, his lasted a little longer but unfortunately he got it and smiled cockily as if he was the best. God I hate that kid, but when he saw mine, Harry and Max's broom in our hand his smile fell at which I smiled because it was funny. Then Ron tried to get it up and the broom hit him in the nose, we laughed "You know Ron, the broom needs to go up to your hand. Not your nose". "Oh, just shut up you four" he was a little bit irritated and embarrassed. Just a little, and his ears went pink from embarrassment. When eventually every one got his or her broom in their hands madam Hooch told us to step up on our broom. She whistled with her whistle and we all went to sit on the brooms, then she said that when she counted to three everyone needed to mount their brooms. "one, two" she wanted to say three but then Neville shot up in the air. He zigzagged through the air and he couldn't control his broom. Everyone mounted of their brooms and I screamed "Neville". He flew to the tower and fell of his broom, luckily he was caught by his robe to a sharp stick at the window of the tower before he fell. The tower wasn't that high so you would die, but it would still hurt if you fell down from that height. Then his robe was ripping and he fell to the ground, he was moaning from the pain and madam Hooch went to Neville and helped him up, "ah, a sprained wrist. Alright, I'm taking mister Longbottom to the infirmary and if I catch any of you in the air you will be expelled faster than you can say quiditch". Then she brought Neville to the infirmary and she disappeared into the distance. I saw Malfoy picking something up from the ground, it took me a few seconds to notice that it was Neville's Rememberall. "Give that back Malfoy, it isn't yours. It's Neville's" Harry told him while glaring and I of course was glaring too. "I could, but I think it would be funnier if I would hide it somewhere he can't find it" he said to Harry while smirking. Oh hell no, "Give that back ferret boy. This is your last chance" "or what, your going to punch me". "Well, now I think about it. Yes" then I balled my fist and swung it in the air ready to punch Malfoy before Max stopped me. "Calm down Soph, he's not worth it." Then Malfoy mounted his broom and went up in the air, he was a few feet above us and said "Come on than Potters, or are you scared?" he said while faking a scared look. "Me, scared of you? Hahaha, It's more the other way around". He furrowed his eyebrows, I think. It was difficult, he was far away. That's how I want it, but I know that I needed to get back the Rememberall for Neville he's one of my best friends. So I quit with my trail of thoughts and mounted my broom, I saw Harry do the same and we went in the air, it was the best feeling ever well not as good as seeing George for the first time but it was also amazing. "So Potters, you came so your not such chickens as I thought you two were. It's a shame Potter 3 isn't here, I guess he was too scared. Stupid wimp he is" "Listen to me ferret boy, and listen good. He has a name and it's NOT POTTER 3, it's Max you asshole. Now give that back to me and I won't kick your awfully, terribly, horribly, hideous ass". I heard the Gryffindors laugh, even Hermione laughed and mostly she doesn't show any sort of emotions when I was doing reckless things well apart from disappointment and annoyingness. Cassidy yelled "Yes, come on Sophie kick his awfully, terribly, horribly, hideous ass" while bumping her fist in the air. Malfoy glared at her and then he simply said "no", then he threw it till it had passed Harry and I caught it and threw it to Harry. Malfoy tried to get it before Harry but Harry was much faster, and flew down and he had caught the Rememberall in his hands. I was so happy that I didn't have to tell Neville that his Rememberall was broken, I couldn't get it over my heart to tell him. Then professor McGonagall came and she said "Sophie and Harry Potter, come with me", "yes professor" me and Harry said at the same time. Cassidy looked at me and stuck up her thumps for moral support. We followed her through the hall ways and we came at the class of professor Flitwick. She went inside and asked "Can I please borrow mister wood for a minute?" "yes sure, Wood your dismissed" he said. Then professor McGonagall came back with a cute boy, he had brown hair and he was rather tall. Then professor McGonagall said to us "Sophie, Harry this is Oliver Wood. He's the quiditch captain of Gryffindor." He gave Harry an awkward nod and when he saw me he smiled real cute, so so so cute okay Sophie now is not the time to fangirl about a boy. Then professor McGonagall said to him "Wood, I found you an excellent seeker and chaser." He looked at her sceptically before saying "alright, which of them is the seeker and the chaser?" "Harry is the new seeker and Sophie is the new chaser, you had to see them fly it was amazing". Harry and I grinned at each other, she saw and then she wiped the smile of her face and said "Although it was really bad of you two to disobey the rules". "Yes we're very sorry professor but is it okay if we go to lunch now?" I asked her, I was really hungry. Wood smiled and Harry slapped me on the arm. "ouch" I mumbled, "You don't interrupt a teacher like that" I rolled my eyes and then she nodded and said "alright you can go, oh and miss Potter don't forget your detention with Mr. and Mr. Weasley tonight." "Of course not professor, I can't wait to clean the whole room. It's an honour, but that prank we did at the Slytherin common room and Draco was amazing". She really smiled at me and then she turned the corner, "You know, you're the only one who's ever been able to put a smile on professor McGonagall's face" Wood told me. "Really, that's so cool. So I think we need to introduce ourselves again. I know we know each other names now, but I mean to properly introduce ourselves". He smiled again, I'm so glad I live in England this is where all the cute boys live. Then he held out his hand for me and said "my name is Oliver Wood, it's nice to meet you" "My name is Sophie Potter, it's nice to meet you too. But just call me Soph most people do". "Okay, do you got a nickname for me then? Because I don't know one." "Yeah sure, what do you think of 'Ollie'?" "I think it's great" he flashed his smile again. Then Harry coughed next to us and said "My name is Harry, nice to meet you" "it's nice to meet you too, don't you two have a brother?" "yes we have, his name is Max he's our older twin brother. Sophie is my older twin sister". "okay, hey didn't you say that you were hungry". Omg I forgot about food, how can I forget about food. Its like my drug, I immediately ran to the great hall to my favourite twins. "Move over" I said to Fred so I could sit in between them, "damn women. Calm down. We were worried, we asked Ron and Hermione where you two were but she said that you broke the rules again and that you two would probably be suspended. Tell me your not getting suspended." They looked at me hopeful, then I said "I'm sorry. I should've had listened to Hermione, if I and Harry would have just been stayed on the ground then we wouldn't have.... we wouldn't have...." "been suspended" the twins finished for me sadly. "No, then we wouldn't have been able to join the quiditch team" I said proudly. They looked at me stunned and then they picked me up and twirled me around and screamed "your staying here, your staying here" they put me down, and then I said "of course I'm staying here, you can't get rid of me that easily. I love you guys, I can't let you here alone and let you blow up the entire school" I told them while smiling. "We love you too" they told me while hugging me, then I saw Harry and Ollie walking to the table, I waved at them and they waved back. Harry went to sit with us next to Max and Oliver went to the other side of the table. "Sup Harry", "Hey Soph" then I put the food on my plate and began eating. This food is amazing, well I'm just glad that I get food. Cassidy sat across from me and when she saw Oliver smiling at me she turned around to meet my eye and she smirked, "So, did you do something fun today. Well besides threatening Draco to kick his awfully, terribly, horribly, hideous ass of course". The twins and Lee laughed "Wait, you said that to Malfoy?" "Well yeah, I mean he stole Neville's Rememberall". "But yeah, I let professor McGonagall smile. For the rest not so much", "Oh yeah, you didn't meet any cute guys". I really hate it when girls do that, "No, I saw no cute boys" "Okaaaaaaaaaaaaaay" she said while dragging out the last syllable. After lunch I got two more periods and then I was done with school and I could go to the common room.
~time skip to after class~
Luckily my classes are done, it was like they would never end. I wanted to go to the common room, but I thought it was better to go to the infirmary and see how Neville is. Yeah I know he had just a sprained wrist but madam Pomfrey is very protective of the students. When I came at the infirmary I went inside and went to Neville's bed. "Hey Neville, how are you doing?" "Hey Sophie, I'm doing great thanks. It doesn't hurt anymore but madam Pomfrey doesn't let me leave until I'm finally healed. So I need to stay here for the night". "I'm sorry Neville, I should have done something to help you instead of screaming your name and just stand there." "What, no that's ridiculous. You did enough, you cared enough for me to be worried. For a long time I only got my grandma who worried for me, so I'm just glad that you care for me." "Of course I care for you, your one of the first friends I've made. Oh and by the way I got your Rememberall, I only got almost suspended but it's no big deal". "What, you almost got suspended by my fault. You shouldn't have done that. And I already heard what you said and what you did, the whole school knows. And I wanted to thank you, for getting back my Rememberall and for yelling at Malfoy." "Hahaha, it was my pleasure. No really, I liked flying and if you didn't drop your Rememberall I wouldn't have gotten into the team. So thank you" I told him honestly. He smiled and I smiled back, we talked a lot until it was time for dinner and I said bye to Neville. Then I walked back to the great hall and ate dinner, I sat in between Fred and George with Cassidy, Max and the trio in front of us as always. We ate and told jokes and then I remembered we had detention in two hours. "Fred George, we got detention with Filsh in two hours", their faces fell and they said "Damn Soph, we're trying to eat here. Do you mind not ruining our mood." "Nope, that's just no fun at all". "Wait you got detention?" Cassidy asked me. "Yes, why?" "Because I got detention too" "No, really. Why didn't you tell me?" "Because I thought you would be disappointed, well Hermione for sure." "Are you kidding me, I, disappointment. Of course not, I'm so proud of you" then I hugged her. "It's okay, we will get through this. It's going to be okay, but why did you get detention?" she smirked and then she said "I punched Pansy in the face when a teacher walked by". I hugged her, "I'm so very proud of you, you're growing up so fast". Then Fred and George said "you punched Pansy?", she nodded. "Wicked" they both said. Then Dinner was over and we went to the common room to do 'homework' yeah right, we had our books open but we just didn't do it we told each other jokes till my watch made a noise and I knew we needed to go to the detention in the trophy room. This will be so much fun, not.
