TW: eating disorder
-
"HARRY Potter!" Snape shot.
Ellie turned around and saw Harry Potter stumble in the potions room.
"S-sorry." Harry apologized.
Snape glared at him and pointed for Harry to sit next to Ellie. She was sitting in the back because she didn't want to handle the awkwardness with Jane and Micheal. Considering they still haven't admitted their feelings.
Harry quickly sat next to her and he dropped a book next to Ellie's foot.
He went wide eyed and looked at her.
"Sorry." He quickly apologized.
"It's ok." Ellie exclaimed, and she grabbed the book Harry dropped. It was a picture book with a picture of him with Ron and Hermione.
She handed it to him and he smiled at her.
"Thank you." He spoke.
"No problem." Ellie replied, then got back to writing her parchment.
Harry looked over at her for a second.
"You're Ellie right?" Harry asked.
"Yes." She replied.
"George and Fred talk about you all the time." He exclaimed.
"Really?" Ellie queried.
"Yeah, Fred talks about you more though. It seems like he cares about you a lot." Harry said, then got back to quickly writing the notes so Snape wouldn't yell at him.
"It seems like he cares about you a lot."
The words were repeating in Ellie's head.
She didn't know why. Fred is and will always be just a friend. Right?
Then why did the words keep repeating?
Ellie just quickly went back to her work and then the bell rang.
She couldn't wait to see Daphne and Blaise.
Ellie walked to the ancient runes room and saw Daphne and Blaise waiting for her.
Daphne smiled at her.
"Hi Ellie." She greeted her.
"Hi Daphne." Ellie replied, with a smirk on her face.
Blaise looked at the two girls.
"What are you two plotting?" He questioned.
"Nothing." Ellie said.
"Honestly Blaise just because we're both smiling doesn't mean that we're plotting something." Daphne protested.
Blaise just looked at the two girls again.
"Whatever you say, Daph." Blaise spoke, then he walked in the room.
Ellie was about to walk in but Daphne grabbed her.
"Daphne!" Ellie shot.
"Do you know what day it is?" She asked.
"Monday." Ellie answered, then tried to walk in but Daphne grabbed her again.
"Yes, but besides that it's Valentine's day!" Daphne exclaimed.
"Okay, can we walk in the class now?" Ellie asked.
Ellie quickly walked in towards her seat and Daphne followed.
"What's she going on about?" Blaise asked.
"Valentine's day." Ellie replied.
Blaise looked over at Daphne.
"What's so special about that holiday anyway?" Blaise questioned.
"It's not what's special it's about what's hilarious." Daphne exclaimed.
"Huh?" Ellie queried.
"All the people are sad because they aren't dating anyone." Daphne replied.
"But you aren't dating anyone." Blaise spoke.
Ellie scoffed.
"Some girls are fine without dating Blaise." Ellie exclaimed.
Blaise just rolled his eyes and started writing down his notes.
While Ellie was writing down the notes her professor was handing out their grades from a test.
Then Ellie got hers.
A poor.
Her eyes widened and she shoved it in her bag.
"What did you get?" She asked Daphne.
"I got a dreadful, but I don't care." Daphne replied.
Then she looked at Blaise.
"I got a poor. The test was bloody hard." Blaise explained.
Ellie sighed for a moment.
She was relieved that she wasn't the only one who failed but she still felt awful about it.
She was just disappointed in herself. And she had been feeling that a lot lately.

"FRED!" George shouted. Then ran up to his brother who had just fallen off his broomstick from quidditch practice.
"Ow." Fred groaned.
"You'll be okay Freddie! Just hang in there!" George exclaimed.
"Elle?" Fred queried.
"Oh no! How hard did you fall that you think I'm Ellie Smith!" George shot.
Oliver Wood quickly ran towards Fred.
"Okay Fred I'm going to pick you up now." Oliver shouted.
Fred just glared at him.
"You know I can hear you right?" Fred shot.
Oliver rolled his eyes and tossed Fred over his shoulder.
George stood behind Oliver.
"Freddie, are you okay? Should I get Percy?" George rambled.
"No it's fine, I think I just need to be in the infirmary." Fred informed George.
Harry Potter looked at Fred with a worried look on his face.
"Are you okay Fred?" He asked.
"Yeah, I don't know why Wood is carrying me though considering I'm taller than him." Fred teased.
"Not the time for jokes." Oliver shot.
Then the entire Gryffindor quidditch team headed towards the infirmary. Which earned looks from many people.
Madam Pomfrey looked at Fred for a moment.
"You should probably stay overnight. It's a small sprain on your ankle, but I'm sure you'll be fine." She advised. Fred nodded and leaned on the bed.
It was now just Fred and George. George and Fred.
"Hey Fred." George spoke.
"Yeah." Fred replied, playing with a string from the blanket.
"I think it's funny that you thought I was Ellie earlier." George admitted.
"Yeah it was hilarious." Fred muttered.
George gave Fred a small smile.
"Fred." George spoke.
"Yeah." Fred said, looking up at George.
"You would tell me if you ever liked someone right?" George asked.
"Yeah, why?" Fred queried.
"Nothing." George spoke.
Then he got up.
"I have to go eat dinner. I'll be back okay." George advised.
Fred nodded and quickly got under the covers. George looked at Fred for a moment and smiled at his brother and quickly left. However he was not going to the great hall yet.

ELLIE was helping Luna with some of her work. Then George Weasley stumbled in the library and looked at Ellie.
"You." He pointed.
"Hi." Ellie spoke.
Luna quickly smiled at him.
"Can you do me a favor, and I'll owe you." George said abruptly.
"It depends on what the favor is." Ellie replied.
"Well Fred's in the infirmary and I was wondering if you could watch him while I have dinner in the great hall." George explained.
"Is he okay?" Ellie asked quickly.
"He's fine, he sprained something I think." George spoke.
"Okay, um Luna I'll see you later." Ellie exclaimed. Luna nodded at her and handed Ellie her bag.
Ellie quickly followed George.
"You don't owe me for anything." Ellie exclaimed.
George smiled at her.
"You really care about Fred don't you?" He asked.
"Yeah, he's my friend." Ellie replied. "Why wouldn't I go check on him." She added.
George smirked for a moment.
"Okay well he was asleep when I left so be a bit quiet when you walk in." George informed her.
Ellie nodded and headed her way to the infirmary.
When Ellie walked in she saw Madam Pomfrey stare at her.
"Where's the boy twin brother?" She asked.
"He went to go eat so he told me to come." Ellie told her.
"Okay well I can't really say much to people who aren't family. But I just checked his ankle and it seems much better." She informed Ellie.
"Okay thank you." Ellie spoke, then went to sit at the chair George had pulled up next to where Fred was.
Ellie sat there for a moment and took out a book and started reading.
Then she glanced over at Fred after a few minutes. He started to open his eyes and he looked at Ellie.
"Hey." He spoke in a very raspy voice, with a smile on his face.
"Hi." Ellie replied, with a smile on her face.
"Where's Georgie?" Fred asked.
"He went to eat and he'll be back soon." She told him.
Fred just looked at her for a moment.
"What are you doing here?" He asked.
"Well George told me you were here and he asked to cover for him. But even if he didn't ask me too I probably would've come anyway." Ellie advised.
Which caused a grin on Fred's face.
"So how are you feeling?" Ellie asked him.
Fred smirked for a moment.
"I'm in agony Elle I think I may die." He joked.
Ellie rolled her eyes.
"Don't joke about death Fred." Ellie spoke.
Fred just shrugged for a moment.
"I'm okay. Really. You don't have to stay here." Fred advised.
"I know. But I want to." She explained.
He smiled again.
"How was your day?" He asked.
"It wasn't the best but I'm sure I'll be fine." Ellie exclaimed.
"How come?" Fred queried.
"I got poor on ancient runes." She exclaimed.
Fred thought for a second.
"Can I see your paper?" He asked.
Ellie grabbed the horrendous paper and handed it to Fred.
Fred laughed.
"This is hilarious, no wonder you got poor." Fred exclaimed, with a laugh.
"What?" Ellie queried.
"You wrote some jokes on here." Fred spoke.
"No I didn't." Ellie said.
Fred quickly looked at the paper.
"Look." Then he pointed to parts of the test.
"I don't see anything-." Then she thought for a moment. "Someone must have hexed my paper." Ellie muttered.
"You really think that?" Fred asked.
"I mean it's the only possibility. Do you really think I would write whatever you saw on my test?" Ellie queried.
"Yeah I should've thought about that but-." Ellie cut him off.
"Do not say it was because of your injuries." Ellie shot.
Fred quickly closed his mouth and fake coughed.
"Well, tell your professor just in case." Fred advised.
Ellie nodded and put the paper back in her bag.
Ellie thought for a moment.
"Who do you think would do this?" Ellie queried.
"Theo." Fred muttered.
"No, he wouldn't do that. Would he?" Ellie queried.
"It's a possibility Elle, I mean the boy has liked you for years practically. Of course he'd be mad." Fred explained.
"Why would he be mad?" Ellie asked Fred.
"He's probably mad that you hang out with me a lot. Remember all the rumors?" Fred asked.
Ellie nodded.
"Maybe the rumors are still going around, and he thinks they're true which is why he's probably mad." Fred exclaimed.
"Probably." Ellie replied.
Madam Pomfrey walked towards them.
"Good news I have a potion that will fix your ankle, however it will be sore for a few moments." She told Fred, and then handed him the potion.
Fred smiled and grabbed the potion from her.
Madam Pomfrey rolled her eyes at him. Fred drank the potion and almost gagged.
"How much do I drink?" Fred questioned.
"The entire thing." Madam Pomfrey shot and walked away.
Fred looked at Ellie.
"This is gross." He spoke.
"Stop being a baby or I will force you to drink it." Ellie shot.
"You are a huge help." Fred muttered, Ellie glared at him and Fred just groaned. "Here goes nothing." He spoke.
Then he chugged the potion.
Ellie stared at him for a moment. Fred looked at his ankle and then he felt something then he felt a sharp pain. And after a second it was gone.
Ellie gave him a worried look.
"Are you okay?" She asked.
"I think. Could you help me stand up?" He asked.
Ellie sighed for a moment and nodded.
She walked towards him. He sat up and she held out a hand for him to grab. He grabbed her hand and stood up. Ellie adjusted so that he could grab her shoulder. He quickly grabbed and then he stood.
They both looked at each for a moment. Fred was about to say something but Ellie looked down.
"Fred you're standing." She spoke.
"What?" He muttered, then he looked down and smiled. "I'm standing!" Fred shouted, a smile on his face.
"That's great. Now come with me while I go yell at Theodore Nott." Ellie exclaimed.
Fred's eyes widened and then started following quickly.
"Elle wait up. My ankle is sore." He panted.
Ellie stopped for a moment and waited for him.
"Okay, now can we walk slowly?" He asked.
"Calm down Fred it's not like it's broken." Ellie shot, then she quickly started walking toward the great hall.
Fred tried to catch up quickly. He smirked for a second but then followed her.
Ellie stopped when she was at the door and waited for Fred.
Fred walked over at her.
"You okay?" Ellie asked.
Fred nodded.
"Yeah, you're just really fast right now. Even if I could walk normally." Fred exclaimed.
Ellie looked at him for a few seconds.
"Okay let's go." Ellie exclaimed.
"Are you sure about this?" Fred asked.
"Positive." Ellie said.
Then she walked in the great hall and started heading to the Slytherin table and Fred quickly followed her.
Ellie spotted him sitting next to Daphne and Blaise.
She started to head towards when Draco Malfoy saw her walking there.
"What are you doing half-blood?" He queried.
Ellie rolled her eyes and didn't look back at him.
"Zip it Malfoy." Fred shot, giving him a glare.
Then Ellie stood right in front of Theo.
"Hey Ellie." Daphne greeted.
"Shut it." Ellie shot.
Daphne's eyes widened and Blaise smiled.
"Someone's in a mood." Blaise whispered.
"You too Blaise!" Ellie shot. Blaise smirked for a second.
Then Ellie looked at Theo.
"Hey are you-." Theo started but then cut him off.
"Did you or did you not hex my paper so I failed!" Ellie shouted causing stares from all over the great hall.
Fred stood next to her with his eyes widened.
Theo quickly stood up to face her.
"Look I'm sorry but I-." Theo tried to explain himself but she didn't want to hear him finish.
"I don't want to hear your excuse Nott!" Ellie shot. "What you did was messed up and I can't forgive you!" She didn't know if she shouted or not.
Fred touched her shoulder for a moment.
She looked at him but quickly faced back to Theo.
Theo looked at her and frowned.
"I'm sorry but can we talk about this in private?" Theo asked.
"No. I don't want to talk to you ever again." Ellie spoke.
"Over a joke?" Theo asked.
Then she slapped him. Her eyes widened, she didn't know what got over her.
Fred was just as shocked.
Then he glared at Theo.
Ellie just quickly stormed off and started walking to the girls bathroom and hid in a stall.
Then she just stayed there.
"Elle." Fred called out. "I know you're in here I saw you." Fred spoke.
Ellie sighed and got out of the stall and walked towards him.
"Are you okay?" He asked.
"I don't know. I can't believe I did that." Ellie admitted.
"I was shocked. I think some teachers may come looking for you though. Actually just Professor Lupin. I think he was the only one in the great hall." Fred rambled. Then he looked at her. "What are you thinking?" Fred asked.
"I'm thinking people are going to start talking to me." Ellie exclaimed.
Fred had a genuine laugh for a moment.
"What?" Ellie asked. Then she thought for a moment. "Did you actually not see anything and you lied to me?" Ellie asked.
"No! Elle I wouldn't lie to you." Fred advised. Then he touched her shoulder and looked at her in the eyes. "Trust me." He said. Ellie just looked at him.
"Ellie Smith. Fred Weasley." Lupin spoke.
Ellie knocked Fred's hand off her shoulder and she looked at Lupin.
"There you are. Mr.Weasley could you let us be for a moment?" Lupin asked.
Fred nodded and quickly left.
Lupin looked at Ellie.
"Are you okay? That was quite a scene Ellie." Lupin queried.
"I'll be fine. Am I in trouble?" Ellie asked.
Lupin chuckled for a moment.
"Possibly, but I talked to Mr.Nott and he admitted so he has detention." Lupin explained.
Ellie smiled at him.
"Thank you Professor Lupin." Ellie thanked him with a smile.
"You are very welcome." Then he pulled something out of his pocket. "Have some chocolate. You deserve it." Lupin explained.
She gave him a sly smile and she took it from him. Then she ate it.

"FRED." George shot, as he ran towards his twin brother.
"Hey George." Fred spoke.
"Is Ellie okay? She seemed tense when she ran out." George asked.
"She's fine, we should get going to the common room." Fred exclaimed, then started heading to the common room. He started walking at a fast speed and George was trying to keep up with him.
Fred accidentally put pressure on his ankle and he stood there for a second and George caught up.
"Fred slow down! You're going to hurt your ankle again." George shot.
"The faster I get to the common room is better trust me." Fred muttered.
"Okay fine." George spoke, giving Fred a look.
The boys got to the common room and people looked at Fred.
He groaned and went up to the dormitories and closed his privacy curtains.
He stayed for a minute and then George walked in.
"Are you okay?" George asked.
"Yeah, I just didn't want to hear people's annoying questions and comments." Fred told him.
George gave Fred a smile, and the two boys sat in silence.
"Fred." George said, breaking the silence.
Fred looked up at him.
"Yeah." Fred spoke.
"Do you like Ellie?" George queried.
"Yeah she's bloody brilliant and a great friend. Why wouldn't I like her?" Fred exclaimed.
George shook his head.
"No Fred I mean do you fancy her?" George asked him.
"No! George stop being ridiculous." Fred shot.
"I was just asking, calm down Fred." George spoke.
"Sorry." He apologized.
"It's okay Freddie." George advised.

"YOU are so lucky Professor Lupin likes you! Do you know how much trouble you would have gotten in?" Rosie shouted at Ellie.
"Look Rosie I get that you're mad at Ellie but don't yell at her. I would've done the same thing if one of the Weasley twins did that to me." Brandon told Rosie.
Ellie just sat next to Brandon quietly.
"Exactly she's turning more into you each day!" Rosie shot.
"Is that really a bad thing. I mean I'm a good student. I pass Rosie. It's okay to let anger out. I mean you're doing it right now." Brandon exclaimed.
Rosie rolled her eyes at him.
"I know and that's because I never thought I had to yell because you two were being irresponsible." Rosie spoke.
"Well I'm sorry I cared about my grades and I confronted someone." Ellie muttered.
Rosie just scoffed.
"You overreacted Ellie and you know that." Rosie said to her.
"No I didn't!" Ellie shot back.
Brandon just stared at the girls with wide eyes and they started getting attention from the common room.
"I know why you're acting like this how could I be so stupid. It's Fred." Rosie spoke.
"Rosie." Brandon said sternly, shocked how she was acting like that.
"Leave Fred out of this." Ellie shot.
"Why he's a bad influence I mean you hang out with him a lot. You've obviously picked up stuff from him and his brother." Rosie spoke.
"What!" Ellie shot.
"Okay Rosie now you're being ridiculous." Brandon spoke.
"I'm not! I mean don't you hate the twins!" Rosie queried.
"I don't hate them necessarily." Brandon spoke, then looked at Ellie who was glaring at Rosie.
"So you're taking her side?" Rosie queried.
Ellie just rolled her eyes.
"You know just because you broke up with Jake doesn't mean you have to be angry with the world." Ellie shot.
Brandon's eyes widened.
Rosie was about to say something but then she stormed off.
Ellie just sighed and sat down on the couch.
"Are you okay?" Brandon asked.
"I know what I said was rude but I wasn't over reacting when I was yelling at Theo." Ellie told him.
"I know. And I don't know why she acted like that but Ellie, can I ask you something?" Brandon asked.
"What?" Ellie queried.
"Do you like Fred?" He asked her.
"No!" Ellie shot.
"Then why did you stick up for him Ellie?" Brandon asked her.
"Well I stood up for him because he's my friend. I'm not going to let her say that he's the reason I yelled at Theo. It was because I was upset." Ellie explained.
Brandon smiled at her.
"Okay Ellie, but was that grade so bad to slap him?" Brandon asked.
"I didn't even realize I slapped him until I did." Ellie told him.
Brandon just smiled at her.
"I'm going to go to my dorm, I'll see you later." Brandon advised.
Ellie nodded and he left.
And she just sat there alone.
