Me and Theodore walked aside each other down trail that everyone in the camp was set to go on today. I was explaining to him what happened yesterdayβ I left out the part about the plan really being about him, just because I was mad at Ivy does mean that he should.
"Well, shit and I thought sharing a room with Potter and Draco was hell" he said underneath his breath, shaking his head to himself.
I dryly laugh and catch the red apple I threw in the air. The have a whole bunch of them in the mess hall so I just take it upon myself to take one everyday and toss it around. I'm not going to eat it because I absolutely hate apples.
I was kinda surprised that Theodore wasn't even a little shocked when I told him about me having a thing for girls, it was like he already knew.
"OI! Rebekah!" A voice calls. I look back and Dean Thomas is running, attempting to catch up with me. A friendly smile grows on my face
I stop in steps in attempt to make it easier for him.
I heard Theodore grumble something before walking off. He wasn't the biggest fan of me being friends with Dean Thomas and was happy when we stopped talking.
"Helloβ" I began to greet him, trying to contain my laughter due to the smell of
Muggle herbs being on him.
"Rebekah" He interrupted me loudly with a large smile and threw his arm around my shoulders. "We're having a party us Gryffindors aβat the poolβ well, you should come, it starts at eleven but your friend over there we'll ...he's not invited"
He thought he was whispering the last part as he pointed to Theodore, who obviously heard him by the way he looked back and scowled.
I sent him an apologizing smile before turning back to Dean Thomas.
"I'll think about it, but if I decide to go can I bring Badeea with me?" I asked, looking up
at him with hopeful eyes. Well I can't bring Theodore obviously and the only other person here I'll consider my friend is Badeea.
"Of course! You just can't bring Nott" Dean Thomas shouts and everyone in a three feet radius looks back.
I burst into a loud laughter because I was more than sure that Dean was beyond high. He gave me a hard tap on my shoulder before running off towards the group of hufflepuff boys in front of me.
My hands wrapped around my chest and my apple dropped to the ground. Merlin it was below zero degrees and these bastards have
us walking a trail, lovely.
"Okay everyone, find your partner and ask them questions that's on the parchment paper, when the whole paper is filled out return back to this spot" Professor Sinistra explains in a calm voice.
I don't know why but I've been looking
forward to the time during this trip when we were assigned to hang out with our partners,
I'm not really sure why but I have.
The heavy footsteps approached me and I turned to look over my shoulder. He had on a red jumper that had his initial on it and some dark blue jeans.
"Where do you think we should go?" I questioned him lowly as I looked around
to see everyone going in some part of the woods.
A little smirk grows on his face. "I already have a spot for us, this way c'mon Moons" a little confusion grew on my face when he started walking the opposite way from everyone else.
The two of us started walking, he walked a little bit ahead of me because he had to lead the way.
After fifteen minutes of walking I started getting a little suspicion on to where he was taking me.
"Your not taking me this far away from the group to kill me, are you?" I asked, half serious and half joking.
"Me want to kill you... never" He bantered, looking back and sending me a mischievous smirk.
The two of us arrived at the grassy area that had verity of colorful flowers growing in it.
Aside it was a sparkling blue lake that had a waterfall.
"Iβit's the middle of the winter..how the hell" I bewilder softly as I look around at the beautiful lake.
"I mean, I am a wizard Rebekah and although most spells are complicated to me this one was rather simβ"He begins to explain.
In the middle of him speaking I took off my jacket and black jeans, I came to the conclusion that I was probably freezing cold because I hadn't wore a shirt under my jacket. I slipped off my black uggs and snatched off my beanie.
"You are going to be freezing cold" Ron chuckled as I jumped into the lake. Making water splash onto his feet.
I'll admit, jumping in a lake when it was snowing outside probably wasn't the
brightest idea but I've done dumber things.
"Yeah, your right I probably am going to be freezing after but are you really going to make me swim alone, Wan Wan?" I say with a smirk, mocking the name that Lavender Brown calls him making him scoff and roll his blue eyes.
He clicked his tongue and looked at the water.
I could tell that he was thinking if he should get in or not, then he shakes his head. "No, you should probably get out as well before you catch cold" he says in a serious tone.
I was more than sure that I was already going to catch cold, so it's not any point to to get out now I mean.
"Fine" I spit out, very quietly that you'd only be able to catch it if you were actually listening to me.
He reached out his hand to pull me out, I let out a deep sigh before grabbing onto it. In a instant I yanked myself back, it doesn't take him long to come alarm about what I was trying to do.
"Wait, Stop Moons!" He yelled as he tried to take my his hand out of my grip but I didn't budge that easily.
I pulled myself further back making him topple over into the water with a loud splash. My lips curled up into a satisfying grin as I watched him move under the water from above.
He then comes up and inhaled deeply, attempting to catch his breath. He wipes his face before looking at me as if I was insane making me laugh out.
"Look..now we'll catch cold together" I whisper softly, pushing his hair out of his face so that he could see the the smirk on mine.
His mouth opened but he didn't say anything,
I could tell that he wanted to say something, probably anything that I would find rather offensive.
"Merlin, I can't even swim" he complained under his breath.
I looked at him as if he was stupid. "I swear you can be so dumb, stand up, Ron" I hissed lowly as I rolled my eyes.
He scoffed and slowly stood up, only half of his body was now in the water. He looked down with a raised eyebrow before shrugging.
Confusion filled my face as he dived back into the water and I slightly stepped back. If he couldn't swim then why the hell was he going back inside the water?
He came back to the surface with something in his hand. My face was slowly going back to its normal blank expression.
"Pretty" I mumbled, with a soft smile growing on my face as he showed me the blue stone.
"Yeah, it is" he said underneath his breath as he stuffed it inside his pocket. "We should probably answer those questions, although this is a trip we're still getting a grade for some of this stuff"
With that he swam over the land and stepped out of the lake and used the drying spell to
dry his clothes. He plopped himself onto the ground and pulled the parchment paper out.
"Okay so the first question is what's your partners favorite color" He questioned me,
his eyes still on the parchment paper.
"I like um... blue, any shades of it, sapphire, navy, sky blue, turquoise" I responded as i focused on twirling my arms under the water.
Ron writes down my answer on the parchment with a quill that I didn't even know he had.
He ran his hand through his hair before
looking at me.
"What do you like to do in your free time?
Well, other than dropping your knickers" he mumbled with a smirk on his face.
Freckled face bastard.
I send him a harsh look. "Fuck you okay,
on a serious note I like drawing and reading"
I hissed.
"What's your favorite spell?" Ron clicks his tongue and I shrug.
"I don't think I have one, well... I have one I just don't think it's a rather appropriate one"
A smirk found my lips mid sentence.
Ron rolled his eyes. "What's one thing that you've always but can't have, oh I know the answer to that..me" he says sarcastically with
a grin.
I sucked my teeth and rolled my eyes at his cockiness. If being honest, If I wanted him
I'm sure that I could easily have him.
"Go fuck yourself, alright?" I spit with a cold look on my face. "And the correct answer is actually... well, there is not answer I'm rich enough to buy anything I want unlike some"
He scoffed. "No way, there has to be something that you want but can't get because money can't buy everything"
I thought about it for a split second before shrugging, there was something but I wasn't going to tell him, or at least I thought I wasn't.
My mouth has this thing when it says things that I don't want too.
"I'd probably kill to have my mum come
back home, but I know that'll never happening because she's somewhere in France happy
with her new husband Todd and new daughter Freya" I say with venom dripping from my voice.
"So why don't you go and visit her?" Ron questioned me, putting the parchment paper down on the ground.
"Because she never liked me, even before
she left, like most people she liked what I represented my name sort of, She liked
to tell her everyone that her daughter was
the brightest witch of her age, But she didn't like me y'know, she favors Nate"I explain.
He raised his eyebrow and sighed. "Yeah sort of, my mum well I think she doesn't like me much because she wanted a girl, Like she always compares me to my brothers..don't tell anyone I said this but I think she likes Harry better than me, but I don't doubt that she somewhat loves me"
I was kind of shock to hear this, my whole life I thought that the Weasley were this lovable family and although I'd never say it out loud when I was younger I always wished that my family showed as much affection as they did.
"Yeah, I don't think my mum loves me" I humorlessly chuckle. "My dad... well, he might just a little but definitely not my stupid mum"
An comfortable silences comes upon us.
I never felt okay with telling someone the whole situation about my erratic mother until now, why would I feel comfortable telling someone who probably doesn't even favor me.
"The sun is about to set, do you think we should start heading back to the meeting spot?"He asked me and I slowly nodded.
I stepped out of the lake and then I quickly regretted getting inside in the first place,
I really think that I was about to die from how cold my body was.
My hands grabbed for my wand cast the drying spell, but that didn't seem to work I was still beyond freezing. I put my clothes and slipped my shoes back on and then the two of us was on our way back to the meeting spot.
"Are you alright Rebekah?" He looked down at me with concern on his face as I had my arms wrapped around my chest and was shivering.
I nodded in response, completely lying I was no where near alright. I felt as if I was about to turn into an ice cube.
A wave of confusion came over my body when I felt him pulling me towards him. When I felt the warmness from his body coming onto me it quickly left. My arms wrapped around him as one of his wrapped around my shoulders.
The two of us walked like this the whole way until we got to the meeting spot, when he unwrapped his arms from around me I could feel a frown growing on my face but I quickly shook it off and walked over towards Badeea.
