Alina walked down the long corridors, looking around at everything. It was odd being back here after not being around since she was young. Everything felt so new to her and she was slightly scared of getting lost. Of course she never worried about that with her best friends around but she was still scared of what would happen if she did.
Sighing softly, Alina walked over to one of the walls along the side of the dark, abadoned corridor and slid down the wall until she was sitting there. She leaned her head back against the wall and started humming a muggle song she had learned. As the minutes passed her humming though turned into singing, starting out soft and until it began to reach a higher level.
"This time, This place Misused, Mistakes Too long, Too late Who was I to make you wait Just one chance Just one breath Just in case there's just one left 'Cause you know, you know, you know
[CHORUS] That I love you That I have loved you all along And I miss you From far away for far too long I keep dreaming you'll be with me and you'll never go Stop breathing if I don't see you anymore
On my knees, I'll ask Last chance for one last dance 'Cause with you, I'd withstand All of hell to hold your hand I'd give it all I'd give for us Give anything but I won't give up 'Cause you know, you know, you know
[CHORUS] That I love you That I have loved you all along
And I miss you From far away for far too long I keep dreaming you'll be with me and you'll never go Stop breathing if I don't see you anymore
So far away Been far away for far too long So far away Been far away for far too long But you know, you know, you know
I wanted I wanted you to stay 'Cause I needed I need to hear you say That I love you I have loved you all along And I forgive you For being away for far too long So keep breathing 'Cause I'm not leaving you anymore Believe it Hold on to me and, never let me go Keep breathing 'Cause I'm not leaving you anymore Believe it Hold on to me and, never let me go Keep breathing Hold on to me and, never let me go Keep breathing Hold on to me and, never let me go"

George was leaving the crime scene. By crime scene he meant of course the boys' bathroom from which two mad slytherin were coming out, covered in ectoplasm. He couldn,t help it, when he noticed their two feet from under the toilet doors, he felt he just had to do it. A simple spell to begin the year beautifully. Sure would help with that frog as a teachr. Talking of the frog, he was suppose to go to her class in a couple of minutes.
Well, if he had to torture himself, better go immediately. Fred was probably even there by the time. He took a secret passageway. he knew it would lead him in the corridor adjoining the one where the defense against the dark arts classroom was. It was only coincidential if it appeared to be the corridor in which Alina was sitting. And even more the fact that the passageway opened straight against the part of wall she was leaning against.
He startled feeling the body against him. he looked down and saw her. "Is that your new way to welcome someone?" he asked with a smirk. He moved away and helped her stand before the door closed automatically.

Alina jumped when she felt the wall leave her right as she finished her last note. She looked up at George and rolled her eyes. "I swear the two of you will be the death of me one of these days" she said taking his hand and standing up right as the door to the passage closed. She dusted the back of her pants off and looked at him again, raising an eyebrow.
"Shouldn't you be in class George?" she asked pushing him towards the Defense Against The Dark Arts corridor. "You don't have a break this period like me" she said with a smile, looking around just in case Fred was about to jump out at her or something. "Where's your double?" she asked, looking back at him "In class already?" she continued, pretending to be shocked since she knew the two of them were hardly ever on time for class.

George laughed as she said he would kill her someday. He made a fake saddened face, placing his hands on his heart. "I wouldn never dare to do that. It would break my heart into pieces." he said with a fake tone matching his look.
But he had just said that that Alina was already pushing him away. He wanted to say she was darn lucky to have a free period. he would have done anything to not go to DADA with that shrew as a teacher. He laughed again, taking away that face he made. He made her stop pushing and turned to look at her. He raised his hand. "First, yes I do have a class but in fifteen minutes only. Second, yes my double's probably in class already, I had to stop to... well I had to make a stop." he said, not really seeing the point on explaining the nature's call that made him turn back to go to the bathroom. "And finally..." he began, approaching her. he looked serious but suddenly broke in a smirk. "Are you really willing to kick me out already?" he asked her trying to look innocent and cute but way too amused to make it work.

She laughed at how cute he was. How could she ever say she wanted to kick him out. Even though he had fifteen minutes until class she didn't really want him to be late. "You're quite George but I'd rather you not be late to class. I mean that shrew of a woman is teaching now and I don't want her to torture you like she did me" she said showing him her hand which had 'I will not talk in class' etched into it with cuts. "It doesn't really hurt much if that's what your thinking. Well now it doesn't. It did then though" she continued softly, looking up at him.
"Point is I don't want her to hurt you for being late so on you go" she said shooing him towards the classroom. "If it'll make you happy I'll walk you to class even"

George was still on his funny mode. He was smirking, leaving that innocent look. Well until she showed her hand. Then he frowned and took it in his. He looked at the words. 'I will not talk in class', that was what was written. He looked at her, mouth open about to protest when she said it wasn't hurting. Or at least not anymore. "She didn't really did that?" he said out loud. He wondered how she made it appear on Alina's hand. After all, it was her writing...well OK he didn't see Umbrdge's writing, but he saw Alina's and it really looked like hers.
Wow, if she did that to Alina for talking in class, what would she do to him for being late. He raised an eyrbow, looking at her. "Are you sure it doesn't hurt?" he asked, giving her hand back. He then shook his head. "I'm a big boy you know. I can find my class without getting lsot." he said with a mischievous smile on his lips.

"Yes I'm sure it doesn't hurt. If I did I'm sure I would have told you by now. You are after all one of my closest friends" she said with a smile, turning him around and heading towards the classroom.
She laughed though at his comment about being a big boy. Rolling her eyes playfully, Alina looked over at him. "I know you're a big boy" she said shaking her head. "I just don't want you getting side tracked and end up getting into trouble for being late. I'm sure 'I will never be late' hurts more than 'I will not talk in class'" she continued, looking at him. Even though hers had more words she just wanted him to know that this woman wasn't really the right kind of person to be messing with. "Besides you don't want to leave Fred alone in there with her now do you?" she asked with a laugh.

George took her words for granted. If she said it wasn't hurting anymore, it certainly wasn't hurting anymore. Why lying about it? After all, he wouldn't get in trouble for her hurt hand. He would have told her to go to the hospital wing to see if Pomfrey could do something, that was all.
He stopped thinking about it. he looked at his hand. "You're right, my hands are way too nie to have my horrible handwriting on it." he said, yet once again jokingly. But he was always joking, even on things that mattered. And besides, it was a way of saying he would go. He would do what she wanted. He stopped once again, turning to look at her and thinking about it. he imagined poor Fred all alone.
He pointed at her. "You're right, i cannot make him endure this." he said. He waved and walked away. Before turnign the corridor he looked back at her. "Common room after class?" he asked. He knew she would understand he meant if they would meet in the common room once his class over.

"Fred doesn't deserve to endure the wrath of that woman alone" she said with a laugh, waving back at him. She laughed again at his question about meeting in the common room. "Oh I'll be waiting" she said teasingly, winking at him before turning and heading back down the corridor.
Managing to find her way back to the common room, Alina walked in after giving the password and dropped on to a couch that resided in front of the fireplace. Of course the fireplace wasn't burning now but she knew it would be within a few hours when it grew dark and cold. Sighing softly, Alina laid her legs down on the rest of the couch and laid her head down on the arm rest, staying like that for a few minutes before she fell into a peaceful sleep. She had quite some time to wait before her boys would show up.

George laughed at her comments and the wink, although he couldn't see it that well. he waved once again before joining Fred just as the class was about to begin.
During the entire class, George and his twin kept looking skeptically at one another. She was just talking of the NEWTs and handed them a book they had to read. That was all? Just a book? And when should they use spells? Someone in the class asked and they felt she was even more idiotic as she gave her explanation to why no one should ever practice a spell in that class. He sighed. Well that ought to be boring! He opened the book already losing all of his enthusiasm. He knew his twin was feeling the same. They read in silence. Before the class had begun, he had managed to tell to Fred what punishment she gave to Alina jsut because she talked. That just made them unwilling to try it as well...
George felt he was there since hours when Umbridge finally let them go. He walked with his twin outside the class. He explained Alina was probably waiting in the common room. They headed there.
Once arrived George smirked to Fred seeing her asleep. He sat on the ground next to Alina and took out his wand. He made a terrible noise came out of it to wake her up, tring not to laugh too hard.

Alina awoke to the noise he made and swatted the top of his head, glaring at him. "That wasn't very nice. I was finally getting the first actually sleep I've gotten in a week hun" she said looking at him then at his brother, rolling her eyes. "Now if you don't mind I would like to sleep" she said closing her eyes and trying to fall back asleep.
She knew it wasn't exactly safe to fall asleep with the two of them around her like that but she was exhausted. She hadn't gotten any sleep in the last week and it was beginning to make her cranky which wasn't exactly a good thing. A cranky Alina meant a throwing punches and other things Alina which wasn't very safe over half the time. The last time she got like that around them she ended up punching Fred below the belt and breaking George's nose with a book. Of course she didn't mean it, she was just not in a good mood which made them learn not to be around her when she was in a bad mood.

George looked over at Fred. Of course, the hit she gave him on his head was not really hurting. But he knew if they would really piss her off what she was able to do. Fred even more since he talked with a high-pitched voice for a moment after the hit below the belt. And he had to go to the hospital wing for his nose. It wasn't hurting anymore when he ahd gotten there, but there was blood all over his face because of that.
He sat on the couch. He had to push her a bit but still managed to sit on it. "It's true I could have kissed you but I wasn't feeling much prince-like." he said. He wondered what could have made unable her to have a peaceful sleep during the week. He knew he should jsut leave and let her sleep but he wasn't.
He moved his head so his mouth would be next to her ear. "I think your bed would actually be comfier than that couch." he pointed out.

She laughed at his comment, rolling her eyes. "Oh trust me you're no Prince Charming" she teased, closing her eyes again after rolling them again. She did however shudder when he spoke into her ear like that. She wasn't use to him doing that plus the feelings she now held for them made it even worse.
"Actually I know something that's even more comfy" she said sitting up and standing up. She moved like she was going to leave the room then laid back down, resting her head in his lap. "See this is much more comfy and you get to be with me some more. Aren't you luck?" she teased, looking up at him with an innocent smile that wasn't all that innocent coming from her of all people.

George didn't reply at her comment on how he wasn't that Prince Charming. He wasn't expecting her to say anything else. He knew that would have to come if he said that.
He looked at her as she sat up. She said she knew something more comfier. What was it? For a moment he thought of him. And smirked at the thought. Her, jumping on him and pretending to sleep on him. But she seemed about to leave. His smirk erased into an interrogative look. But it seemed it was jsut to tease him for she went back ont he couch, resting her head on his lap and looking at him with an innocent smile. A smile he wasn't finding that innocent.
"Oh lucky me." he said with an overly touched tone. Joking, yet again. He looked down at her. "Why you can't sleep at night? Personally I don't sleep better than in those beds! I always feel like the mat is brand new yet shaped for me." he said. Of course she didn't know but at his house, he was having an older mat. And he could feel the springs at certain places. but a new mat would cost money and money was something they didn't have in great quantity.

"You know you love have me this close to you" she said teasingly, turning so she was on her side and facing them then wrapped her arms around him even though it wasn't very comfortable. She sighed softly and sat up again, moving her arms from around him. She scooted around on the couch until she was sitting in his lap and laid her head against his shoulder, wrapping his arm instead around her.
"There we go. Now I'm even more comfortable than before" she said choosing to ignore his question about why she wasn't sleeping. She didn't even know why she wasn't sleeping so why should she be able to tell someone else that she couldn't sleep. It seemed down right near impossible to her.
