Alina walked out of the library after spending a few hours in there studying for an exam she had. The end of the year was rolling around quickly, thankfully she didn't have any huge exams like OWLs or NEWTs this year. She would go crazy if she had one of those to study for like her friends or boyfriend.
Heading past a group of Gryffindors, Alina caught a few whispers that had to do with some big plan that was happening this afternoon but she didn't pay too much attention to it. Continuing down the corridor, Alina looked up when she heard running footsteps. She smiled at Lee who was running towards her and opened her mouth to say hello when he hugged her tightly, mentioning something about hoping to see her again outside of Hogwarts.
Frowning, Alina watched him run off and continued down the corridor, her head filled with thoughts about what was happening and why Lee was saying goodbye.

George prepared everything with his brother. They made sure all of the fireworks, and that portable swamp, and every other pranks they wanted to unleash for their great escape from Hogwarts was ready. He felt a bit bad however that he didn't tell anything to Alina. He had wanted to say goodbye to her but he didn't see her around. Little he knew that she was in the library. If he had the marauder's map again, maybe he would have tried to find her. But they gave it to Potter years ago.
Now the last of their preparation was to know the location of their broomsticks, a thing Peeves and Lee went to see themselves. They still had some time for they wanted to wait at an exact moment, when it would be less expected and annoy the most that Umbridge lady. So in the meantime, George wandered in the corridors, looking normal as if nothing was planned.

Alina made her way up to the common room, pushing her way past this person or that person, trying her best to get up the crowded staircases. She had no clue why there was so many people around but her head was filled with too many questions for her to really worry.
Coming closer to the common room, Alina was about to give the password when Fred popped out, giving her a hug just like Lee had done. He also gave her a note then ran off in search of Lee. Alina frowned once more and walked into the common room, putting her stuff down at a table. She sat down at said table and read the note, wondering why after reading it, it seemed that everyone was leaving.

George walked back into the common room after a moment. He wanted to see yet again if his stuff was all packed and ready to go. He found out there was a large commotion. Everyone or so were going all around the castle for the last studies for the O.W.L.s or the N.E.W.T.s.
When he emerged into the common room, quite empty surprisingly, he froze where Alina was. He gulped wondering what he should say and how he should act with her. They decided to tell not a soul of their plan, but he felt it was selfish of him not to put Alina in the secret. He came to her and cleared his throat so she'd look at her instead of a note he didn't know about.

Hearing someone clear their throat near her, Alina looked up, seeing it was George. She looked back down at the note, reading the last bit about how he was sorry they had to leave her behind. She froze a bit, reading that line a few times before looking up at George once more.
"How could you go and plan all of this without telling me?" she asked blankly, standing up, the note clutched tightly in her hand. "You and Fred are leaving because of Umbridge and you don't tell me? How could you?!"

George startled as he heard her. He wasn't expecting Fred to tell her. He put a knee on the ground so he'd be abel to look at her face. "We decided to tell no one, in case of a leak of information." he said, truly sorry that she took it like that. In fact, they didn't mean to tell Lee, he just found out cause they were sharing the same dorm. "... I wanted to tell you." he said in attempt to be forgiven for this.

She looked at him, turning her head quickly. "Sure, whatever" she whispered, turning her body completely around and running for the girl dorm stairs. She hurried up them and into her dorm room, throwing herself onto her bed. She then started crying softly, not caring that a couple of the other girls were in there, staring at her. She knew George was probably beating himself up now but she didn't care, well yeah she did care but not enough to get up and go down there to see him.

When she jumped and ran to her dorm, George followed her not even realizing where she was going. All he wanted to do was stop her. But as he tried to climb the stairs, it turned into a slide and he fell down in the common room.
Now with a wounded butt, he walked to the couch by the fireplace and dropped himself there. he had been so eager a few moments ago but now he felt bad for Alina. He never thought she was to react like this. He thought he could go without telling her and then see her at Diagon Alley and explain to her they wanted to keep it secret to make a good surprise. She would forgive him and their relationship would go back to where they left it. But now he wasn't sure if it would. He wanted to apologize to her and the sad face he was making was able to prove it to anyone in the common room. He looked like a five year-old boy who just made a mistake and was really sorry as his parents scolded him. He jsut wanted to fix things up and he had two hours for it because they were leaving in that many time, right for the O.W.Ls

Alina stayed up in her dorm room for quite some time, crying softly into her pillow. After about a half hour though, Alina was unable to cry anymore, all she could do was lie there and stare at the wall next to her bed. Sitting up on her bed, Alina looked around her room for a few minutes, thinking then stood up.
Leaving her dorm room and heading downstairs, Alina found George by the fireplace and walked over to him, kneeling in front of him. She placed her fingers under his chin and made him look at her, a soft sigh escaping her lips. "If you're leaving, then I'm coming with you" she said softly yet sternly.

George startled at what she said. "What!? NO!" he said, standing up quickly from her words. He made her stand up as well in rfont of him and shook his head. "You can't leave, you must stay. Even Lee might return back later, we didn't mean to drag him into this. You didn't even finish school!" he objected, not noticing that he hadn't either for he didn't pass the N.E.W.Ts. "Fred and I, we have everything planned. We'll have a place to stay and a business opening right after we leave." he said, again to try to convince her to stay.

Alina starled when he yelled at her, causing the tears to once more appear in her eyes. "Fine. If you won't allow me to go with you then we're through" she said hurtfully, shaking out of his grip and running out the common room entrance. She passed by Fred and Lee, not even acknowledging them as she ran down the corridors, not paying attention to anything.
It wasn't until she ran into Umbridge, literally, that she noticed anything. The woman grabbed her to keep herself from falling then asked her what was wrong and why she was crying. Alina didn't answer her. Instead she gave her an angry glare which made Umbridge give her detention right then. She grabbed Alina's wrist and took her to the DADA class room which was nearby. She threw Alina down at a desk and had her start writing lines, not caring that she was wincing from where the lines were forming on her hand.

Once agian, George startled. He tried to call her but she wasn't hearing anything. Now he looked more pitiful than before. He explained everything to Fred adn Lee who wanted to understand. Fred apologized for what his note did and pushed his twin to run after her. They still ahd enough time for George to try to fix things. When he looked around and asked people where she was, he heard about Umbridge and the incident. He sighed, knowing Umbridge's detention could be long. But hopefully she was in charge of the O.W.Ls and so would not make her suffering that long. She needed to be in the Great Hall at least thirty minutes before people entering, to prepare everything. So George waited patiently for Alina to come out and make her talk to him.

It didn't take long for the message to appear on her Alina's hand thanks to her pale skin. She left the classroom looking down at the 'I will not glare at professors' writing on her hand. She quickly dropped her hand though and walked away from the classroom once more not noticing anything around her. She wasn't exactly in the best mood right now. Everything in her life was falling apart and she had no idea what she could do right now about it.

Seeing her passing by, George grabbed Alina's hand and made her come intot he small narrow space he was waiting on for her. Without letting her say anything, he kissed her. About this passionate kiss, he pulled back so she'd see it was him. "Why you want us to be through? This won't change anything the fact we leave." he whispered just in case people could hear them.

Alina felt someone grab her hand and didn't have anytime to yell at the person before George kissed her passionately. She froze, not even responding to the kiss until she saw that it was George. Turning her gaze at what he said, Alina sighed softly. "George you're leaving me. I know the end of the year is like in a couple of days but you're still leaving me. It hurts, it makes me feel like you don't love me enough to stick this through with me" she said softly, sniffling as tears formed once more in her eyes.
