That Damn Weasley Charm II G.W

Chapter 2- Two years later

Its been two years since I was sorted into my house. And to say that being sorted into Slytherin didn't change the friendships I had before the ceremony would be a lie. That's not to say we didn't try to still be friends because we did. It's just hard to be friends with people that your other friends bully and make fun of you know?

None of that matters right now because at this very moment Aunt Narcissa and Uncle Lucius are helping my cousin Draco and I get our trunks onto the trolleys at Kings Cross Station.

"There's not a doubt in my mind. I'm going to be placed in Slytherin just like you Violet." Draco says as we walk towards platform 9 ¾.

"Oh come now Draco, never mind the sorting ceremony, take your trolly and go through the barrier." Aunt Narcissa said. Draco grabs ahold of his trolly and rushes towards the wall as the rest of us watch to make sure no muggles have noticed. Aunt Narcissa follows behind Draco, then it's my run, and finally, Uncle Lucius follows behind.

It's a quick goodbye for me, given I have done this before. I haul my trunk into the train and make my way towards the unofficial Slytherin car. Draco isn't too far behind me. Instead of finding a compartment on the rest of the train, he forces himself into the same car as me and instantly goes over to his friends Vincent Crabbe and Gregory Goyle.

The train pulls away from the station at exactly 11 o'clock. I politely excuse myself from a mindless conversation I was having with a girl in a year above me and walk out of the car in search of a bathroom. I tie my hair up into a ponytail haphazardly and try to push open the bathroom door.

"Angie just went in there, but she shouldn't belong." A familiar voice says from behind me. I smile to myself and turn around.

"Alright there Weasley?" I say smirking at George. He smiles down at his feet and leans on the wall.

"Yeah been good, you?" He looks up at me and butterflies fill my stomach. Definitely not what I need right now. Soon the two of us are sitting on the floor of the train, catching up, talking about everything and anything that has been happening in our lives. Completely forgetting about the bathroom.

"did you hear? Harry Potter is at Hogwarts this year?" George says to me in a half-whisper.

I nod eagerly, George passes me half of a licorice wand before he takes a bite of his half. "My cousin Draco will not shut up about it. He's been going on and on all summer. But I seriously doubt that the boy who lived is going to want to interact with the likes of the Malfoys." I take a bite of the candy wand.

George swallows his candy hard before responding. "You have got to stop doing that Violet. You are more than a name. If you weren't you wouldn't be clogging up the hallway with the likes of me." It gets awkward after that. We just look at each other for a long time.

"Sorry dears please could you go back to your compartments I have to drive the trolly through." The trolly lady says from down the hall. I immediately stand up and straighten out my skirt and blouse. George clumsily stands up from his cross-legged position on the floor.

"I should probably get back. Draco will wonder where I have been and then tell his father all about it." I say as the trolly lady makes her way between us.

"Or you know, you could come back to my compartment. I know Fred and Lee would be delighted to see you again." George says sheepishly, his hand rubbing the back of his neck.

"If I didn't know better Weasley, I would think that you just wanted to spend more time with me," I smirk at him and step across the hall so I'm standing beside him. "I really can't right now, but I hope you know I would if I could. I promise you I'll try and figure out how to spend more time with you lot this year. Stay at Hogwarts for Christmas and things like that." Before he could respond I quickly pecked him on the cheek and rushed back towards my car. I turned around just in time to see George's face flush and a smile spread across his face like an idiot.
