Let's Start the Ball |fred

[Fay Swane]

Today was the big day, today was the day where she would rock out Hogwarts for the first time. Today would also be the day where Fred would have Christmas gift. The past weeks she could barely see him other than in classes. She was busy and he was busy as well on his side. She had to get most of the teacher’s approval for her plans and most of all, Mcgonagal’s approval. Surprisingly, she agreed. Her arguments seemed to be solid enough for the old lady to allow her to do something like this. She was glad. She said that she wanted to cheer up the students from the hard work and the annoyance of Umbridge. It was sad but Fay was speaking the truth, she clearly noticed many students going down and she had to cheer them up in a way or another. She couldn’t think of a better way than this.

It was the evening, the last evening before everyone would go to their houses for Christmas. Fay grinned as she was sitting in her Ravenclaw table with her fellows. However, she was dressed differently, a black and red goth dress along with a Christmas hat; everything to be noticeable by students that would walk by her. The only one who was aware of her plan was her twin brother and the one she had gotten for her bans...as well as the few teachers not including Snape and Umbridge.

Everyone was chatting lowly as usual, keeping things to them and looking downer than usual. This teacher surely knew how to kill an ambiance that used to be once, wonderful when Albus Dumbledore was around. McGonagal stood up and raised her hand thus catching the attention from Umbridge and most of the students. “One of our students had made a surprise for everyone here, as a Christmas gift.” Fay smirked, it was her turn to light up the house. She stood up and walked to a scene that was there since a while, the teachers allowed her to have it, even if Umbridge questioned people about it here and there, tonight she would have the answer. The students involved in her little gift stood up as well, preparing the scene for the microphone and the guitars, as well as the battery and others instruments needed. Fay grinned at Umbridge making the woman frown and grunt with a high displeasure. “Good evening students of Hogwarts~ This year, we are welcoming a new teacher and headmistress; Dolores Umbridge. She brings to Hogwarts a different point of view, a view to the ‘right path’ that the school should take, according to the ministry of magic.” Her ramble continued, raising everyone’s attention until she grabbed her guitar. She grinned at Fred as she spotted him in the room she had told him that after her little ‘gift’ she would be at the pitch. Just before leaving for Christmas knowing that the lady wouldn’t appreciate the little surprise she had for them.

[Fred Weasley]

Fred was rather sleepy on this last school day of the year. Last night, with George and Lee, he worked on his pranking project. They finished the first models of fireworks. Now they needed to do mass production, in one word, make many of each model. It was long and demanding, besides the fact it was, every now and then, blowing up in their face. Lee and his twin didn't look any brighter than he was. Of course, Fred had noticed Fay. He found her rather sexy in that goth dress. At least it was showing her curves. And that Christmas hat was the funniest.

He ate in silence, not in the mood for anything. He'd be going to his family for Christmas and the twins would have to be extra careful with their mother. They didn't want the woman to sabotage their plan. But they had to work even during the holidays if they wanted it to work. They were also working on pranks for their shop which would open soon, a thing no one knew. The puking pastilles were now operational but the twin were working on a more challenging project: portable swamps! They hoped for it to work for it was still in process of realizing it right now.

Fred wondered what McGonagall was talking about when she said a student wanted to make everyone a surprise. He didn't think about Fay, he just thought they would want to hang themselves after some student did a bit of ass-kissing on Umbridge. He was quite shock to see Fay stand up but then he recalled her 'prank' he and smirked, finally awake and ready to see what she had in mind. She wasn't the only one to stand and Fred frowned, wondering why she did not include him in the secret. A band formed around her with guitars, drums and all. Fred liked her opening statement, wondering what she'd be saying. He recalled she had told him she wanted to do her prank today and to meet her at the pitch afterwards. But with all the work of last night, he completely forgot. now, though, he remembered everything and was more thane eager to see what she had in store.

[Fay Swane]

Fay’s grin turned into a smirk as she finished her rambling on this note. “This is why I’m offering this gift to students who worked hard.” To deal with the annoying Umbridge. At first, Umbridge was thinking it was going to be a Christmas song, which was why they all had a hat on their heads. She turned around, thus showing off a bit of her cross tattoo she had on her back and one of each of her arms, one was angel black wings and the other was a rose. She was going to make it epic. She lifted her hand up saying the ‘one two three’ as the battery girl (they were all females in the band) tapped on her wodden sticks, the lead guitar started and the lightning changed in the direction of Fay’s band.

She smirked as she began to sing and play the guitar along with the other girl. Umbridge’s smile turned into a frown. What was that? There, she caught everyone off guard. Perfect, it’s what she needed. Not to add that she knew how to act on scene, doing kicks, and such, punching in the air and acting all rock like. Before she did her guitar solo, she even got many students to stand up. Oh yeah, she was surely born to be a rock star!

[Fred Weasley]

Fred saw Fay's tattoo on her back, on at least a part of it. he tilted his ehad to see more. She did tell him she had a huge cross on her entire back. Who would ahve thougth a Hogwarts student would have this many tattoos. It was better than piercing, he thought. He also had a rather good view of her tattoos on her arms and found them a lot more romantic then he thought she'd have. Well, black wings was making the angel a little less romantic but the rose.

He soon had to stop contemplating her for she started. He knew it couldn't jsut be a Christmas carol like the ghosts sang so many times. It had to be funnier, edgier. The music was hard and rock. Not the type Unbridge expected by her facial expression. Fred smirked. This face was worth millions. Fred stood up quickly, with his twin and all of hsi friends, to encourage her. The rock n' roll show was starting and soon everyone was standing up - except teh slytherins of course, party spoilers - and cheering to her. Fred had no idea she was this talented. Umbridge was unable to control them all and Fred took it as an opportunity to get on teh table and jump to the closest one from teh stage. He was soon joined by others who started dancing. He 'accidentally', while on the slytherin table, kicked a plate of food on Alyx, Fay's brother. But he didn't care, he was rocking with the crowd.

[Fay Swane]

A few seconds later, the show ended. She smirked saying Umbridge standing up. She quickly grabbed her wand. Peeved arrived right in time to splash the oh so ‘poor’ lady with water balloons, it even had it’s Christmas touch; they were red and green! Of course, she had made sure that their band members had their way to escape the soon to be yelling fit. She casted the Accio spell to have her broom in hand, which arrived quickly.

“Merry Christmas Hogwarts~” She mused zooming out of the Great hall. Every teacher then stood up to bring calm back up to the room. She was sure that Fred was now far from disappointed by the little surprise she had given to the school’s students. What? She swore in her song~? Well..perhaps she had forgotten to tell this to the teachers. Ah well~ She flew to her dormitory; all of this was so exciting! She got her winter coat and wore it, knowing it was snowing outside and grabbed her guitar-knowing that Umbridge might want to burn it, the rest of the luggage was already waiting for her at the train station, she was to leave the school soon.

She flew out of the window and landed in the Quidditch pitch. She looked at the dark night sky, grinning to herself as she was satisfied with what she had done.

[Fred Weasley]

Fred, with the help of others, made everyone do an ovation to the band. When Peeves appeared with his water balls, he laughed but rushed outside the Great Hall. After this, Fay was better to run away and she asked him to meet het at the pitch, he had a little walk to do. He went looking for his winter coat, gloves and hat before leaving. There was snow otside, he liked Fay but didn't feel about dying of hypothermia for her.

As he walked to the pitch, his broom having been confiscated earlier this year, he heard a broom flying above his head. He lifted it just to see Fay's silhouette as she flew to the pitch. Soon, they'd ahve to go if they didn't want to miss the train, but they still have plenty of tiem for a little chat.

He arrived at the pitch after her. "That was brilliant" he said to announce himself as he walked in.

[Fay Swane]

Fay’s heart was still racing from all the excitement that this had caused. After that evening, she knew that she would become a rock star. Look at the success she had had! Okay, Slytherins didn’t stood up and all but she was sure they liked her music! It was the spirit of Fay Swane speaking! Grinning stupidly to herself, she still looked up at the sky, as it started snowing a little. She opened her mouth to catch a snow flake and heard Fred Complimenting on her little gift.

She closed her mouth and turned to look at him with a grin. “I am glad you liked~ I thought that someone had to speak to Umbridge in the name of students you see~ Though, I forgot to tell to the teacher I swore a little in my song…oops.” She mused with a smirk. “It was worth the wait uh?” She asked teasingly as she approached him, holding her broom and her guitar in each of her hands.

[Fred Weasley]

Fred noticed Fay was catching snowflakes with her mouth. He grinned at it. He did that too when he was younger, come to think of it, who didn't? Percy, probably, this guy was not human. He found also funny how she acted around, like a kid excited to open her Christmas gift. This was a hard one to get Fay Swane, one day a sleepy head, rock star the next. But perhaps it was the reason he liked her so much, she was absolutely unpredictable.

"Totally, that was awesome. And I'm not surprised you manage to get Peeves' help. He always had a thing for troublemakers." he said as he approached Fay, now only a few inches away from her. "I got something for you." he said, looking through his pocket. He pulled out a piece of paper with scribbles on it. "It's my address, if you want to write during vacations." he explained before she could even look at it and get the answer by herself.

"And for me..." he said, pulling out another thing for his pocket. He now had a branch of mistletoe in his hand. He placed it above their head, shaking it slightly. "Mistletoe alert." he added with a mischievous grin, expecting the kiss that went with it.

[Fay Swane]

Fay grinned; she was pleased that she was able to do something of the twins’ level. She bowed at him as he complimented her. She would probably get complimented by other students when she’d come back but teachers…it would be another business. Luckily she had McGonagal on her side; that meant she wouldn’t be kicked out of the school. This lady had more power than Umbridge, which made her wonder about why she wasn’t the substitute for when Dumbledore wouldn’t be around.

She looked at Fred curiously as he said he had something for her. Oh! He thought of her for a gift! How sweet~ she smiled and grabbed the paper, seeing his address. “Is that an invitation to your house?” She said looking at him suspiciously, though, grinning at the same time. She liked teasing people when they did that, some people didn’t take this but she knew Fred wouldn’t mind that kind of questions.

What that wasn’t all? What for him? She blinked, seeing the mistletoe and smirked as he shook it above their heads. “You know, you could’ve just asked me if you wanted a kiss~” She mused. She stood there though, for a good two minutes, before leaning in quickly and pecking his lips. “ Merry Christmas~” She said taking the Christmas hat out of her head and placing it on Fred’s.

[Fred Weasley]

Fred laughed when she asked if he invited her to hsi house. 2Well, I thought about writing but if you think you can manage the entire Weasley family, it's up to you." he said with a grin. He guessed Ginny, Charlie and Bill would love her. Percy, not at all but he wasn't there anymore. At the thought of his mother's face, he believed it could be quite interesting to invite her to his home. First Christmas without Harry, perhaps it would cheer Ron up a little.

Fred was still smiling when she pecked his lips and laughed as she gave him her hat. He pulled it off to take his own off first, then placed teh Santa one on his head, placing his knitted cap on hers. "Finally my mom made something sexy out of her needles" he said teasingly, knowing she'd understand she was the one he considered cute and not that hat.

[Fay Swane]

Fay grinned honored that she was invited in the so warm Weasley family. People thought of them lowly because they didn’t have the money, or just because they were called Weasley but she thought they were admirable; they were all united and that’s what all that mattered in a family. At least, in Fay’s eyes. Even if she seems close with her twin brother right now, it wasn’t always the case in the past. In fact, they were rivals even if it was hard to believe if she said that to Fred at the right moment.

She smiled at Fred as he placed his hat on her head and chuckled at his comment. “I think it’s cool!” She said with a grin. “My mother couldn’t even make a scarf.” She said with a small laugh.

[Fred Weasley]

Fred chuckled when she talked of her mother and how she had no talent at sewing. Praise was Molly's talents for it otherwise the boys wouldn't have moer than one shirt and one pair of pants. It wasn't easy every day to have little money. For their prank shop, Fred and George had to borrow a large amount of money from Gringotts. Until they paid back entirely with interests, their little shop was the bank's property. It sucked, but an apartment and a shop on Diagon Alley were so expensive.

He heard bells as students were asked to get to the train station. He sighed a little, thsi was the end of it. "Just write anytime you want." he told her before benting over and kissing her again, a little longer than her before. The he started to walk away to get with everyone to the train.

[Fay Swane]

Fay smiled at Fred as she finished speaking. It was a nice Christmas gift she had gotten herself this year; a boyfriend! She frowned as she heard the bells as well; that meant it was time to go. She was rather surprised that they didn’t find her yet, she thought they would run after her to get the hell out of her in detention or something. Looks like McGonagal managed to get her out of trouble, for now.

She blinked as he leant down to kiss her again, but longer this time. She smiled and nodded. “Don’t worry, you won’t even notice I’m not around~” She mused teasingly before jumping on her broom and zooming in the direction of it. She would have to be sneaky if she didn’t want to be recognized by other students…or she could try to have them help her sneaking up in the train before Umbridge found her, she had the feeling that the lady would be there, waiting for her to show up.
