    “Are you kidding?” I stop in the middle of the kitchen. Spin around. My face is pulled together in disbelief. “You’ve spoken to me maybe once in the two weeks I’ve been here. I hardly even notice you anymore.”

    “Okay, hold up,” he says, turning to block my path. “We both know there’s no way you haven’t noticed all of this” — he gestures to himself — “so if you’re trying to play games with me, I should let you know up front that it’s not going to work.”

    “What?” I frown. “What are you talking abou—”

    “You can’t play hard to get, kid.” He raises an eyebrow. “I can’t even touch you. Takes ‘hard to get’ to a whole new level, if you know what I mean.”

    “Oh my God,” I mouth, eyes closed, shaking my head. “You are insane.”

    He falls to his knees. “Insane for your sweet, sweet love!”

    “We won't be seeing you,' Fred told Professor Umbridge, swinging his leg over his broomstick.

    'Yeah, don't bother to keep in touch,' said George, mounting his own.

    Fred looked around at the assembled students, and at the silent, watchful crowd. 'If anyone fancies buying a Portable Swamp, as demonstrated upstairs, come to number ninety-three, Diagon Alley — Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes,' he said in a loud voice, 'Our new premises!'

    'Special discounts to Hogwarts students who swear they're going to use our products to get rid of this old bat,' added George, pointing at Professor Umbridge.

    'STOP THEM!' shrieked Umbridge, but it was too late. As the Inquisitorial Squad closed in, Fred and George kicked off from the floor, shooting fifteen feet into the air, the iron peg swinging dangerously below. Fred looked across the hall at the poltergeist bobbing on his level above the crowd.

    'Give her hell from us, Peeves.'

    And Peeves, who Harry had never seen take an order from a student before, swept his belled hat from his head and sprang to a salute as Fred and George wheeled about to tumultuous applause from the students below and sped out of the open front doors into the glorious sunset.”

    “Fred and George, however, found all this very funny. They went out of
    their way to march ahead of Harry down the corridors, shouting, "Make way for
    the Heir of Slytherin, seriously evil wizard coming through ......

    Percy was deeply disapproving of this behavior.

    "It is not a laughing matter," he said coldly.

    "Oh, get out of the way, Percy," said Fred. "Harry's in a hurry."

    "Yeah, he's off to the Chamber of Secrets for a cup of tea with his fanged
    servant," said George, chortling.

    Ginny didn't find it amusing either.

    "Oh, don't," she wailed every time Fred asked Harry loudly who he was
    planning to attack next, or when George pretended to ward Harry off with a large
    clove of garlic when they met.”
