They went into the common room and saw Dumbledore and McGonagall sitting in one chair…snogging. "EWW!! Professors! EWW!" Fred George said covering their eyes. "The horror…the horror!"

"Hey! Didn't I see you with Snape by the Shrieking Shack?" asked Oliver.

"Snape? You told me that I was the only one!" Dumbledore said backing away from her.

"Well, I have to do SOMETHING for money! They pay us teachers less then we deserve!" McGonagall explained.

"Well, then, Minerva, I'm breaking up with you!" Dumbledore said storming out of the common room. "I've spent too many hours crying over you!" he yelled.

"Albus! Sugar-pie!" McGonagall said chasing after him.

"Don't you sugar-pie me!" Dumbledore said. By this time, McGonagall was on her knees and clutching Dumbledore's robes. "And you can have these socks back too!" he yelled taking off socks that had little stars and hearts on them.

"Not a word to anyone. Fifty points each of you if no one says anything!" McGonagall said as she went chasing after Dumbledore.

"Ewwwwwwwwwww! Ewwwwwwwwww! " was all Fred and George could say. "Too much! Too much! Ewwwwwwwwwww! I'm never sitting on that couch again!" they said twitching.

Hermione just stood there with her mouth open saying something that sounded like, "My role-model! She's a slut!"

Everyone else about died. Then, Lavender and Parvati went up to their room and came back down with two books. "Here, these are for you," they said to Oliver and Harry.

Oliver and Harry were dumbstruck. They held in their hands, the revised copy of Quidditch Through the Ages and it was theirs! "I thought you didn't like Quidditch, Lavender, I was wondering what you were doing with this book," Oliver said turning the pages. "Wow!" he said looking at the Nimbus 2001's page. "This broom is amazing! It can reach up ninety miles per hour!" Oliver said as he went on one of his Quidditch modes.

"Well, don't I even get a 'Thank-you'?" asked Lavender.

"Yes, of course. Thank-you sweetheart," Oliver said kissing her.

"Awwwwwwwww…." said Fred and George pretending to wipe a tear from their eyes. "So sweet…our little Ollie-kinns is finally hitting puberty and finding out that there is a world outside of Quidditch."

"Shut-up, Weasley!" Oliver said.

The next few weeks went by in a haze. Then, it came time for Christmas Holidays. Oliver, Fred, George, Hermione, Ron, Harry, Parvati, and Lavender were the only Gryffindors who stayed behind. During Christmas, Oliver and Lavender spent a lot of time together. Oliver even taught Lavender how to play Quidditch.

One night, Oliver, Ron and Harry fell asleep in the common room. Lavender, Parvati, Hermione, Fred and George came into the common room. They saw Oliver, Harry, and Ron asleep on the couch and Fred said, "Ewwwwwwwwwww! Ron is sleeping on the couch that McGonagall and Dumbledore did it on!"

"I have an idea…" Parvati said as her and Lavender dashed up to their room and got all of their cosmetics and brought them down to the common room.

Then, without a word, Fred and George grinned. "Wicked!" they said as they picked up some lipstick. "I wonder what this tastes like…" Fred said as he bit off a small piece. "Ewwwwwwwwwww!" Fred said as he spit it out.

"Fred! That was my favorite! You have to buy me some more next time we're in Hogsmeade!" Parvati said.

"What so special about it? Can't you just go to a Muggle store and buy some?" asked Hermione.

"That isn't just ANY old lipstick! When you put on that lipstick, it automatically matches what you're wearing!" Parvati explained as she hit Fred over the head.

"Ouch!" shouted Fred, He looked over at George who was fascinated with the pink eye shadow and started putting it on Ron's lips.

"Uhhh…George? The EYE-shadow goes on the EYE lids!" Lavender explained.

"Well, I'm not a girl, how should I know?" George said looking very confused. "Why do you girls bother with all of this stuff anyways…it's not like we notice it!" George said as he looked at Lavender and Parvati who were giving him looks of death. Then, they looked at each other and nodded and tackled George.

Then, Fred pulls them apart and says, "STOP! STOP! STOP! Stop the madness! You'll wake them up! This could be the funniest thing that I have ever seen in my "adult-life" and I don't want you three to ruin it! Fred! I would have expected YOU to understand! Don't you want to see Ron with make-up?" George said as Fred, Lavender and Parvati were calming down.

"Yes…okay…let's get to work," Fred says.

A half an hour later, they were done, Oliver, Ron, and Harry had had makeovers, including their hairstyles. Harry had about thirty little ponytails sticking up all around his head, purple eye shadow with black lipstick. They had used blue eye shadow with sparkles for blush and they drew a little moustache and goatee with Parvati's damaged lipstick. They also painted his fingernails a princess pink.

Oliver had tie-dyed, spiked hair, with gold blush on his lips (applied by Fred and George) little Quidditch goals posts on his forehead that was applied with Parvati's damaged lipstick. They put gold sparkles on one eye, and red sparkles on the other. Then, Lavender put lots of red lipstick on and kissed Oliver on both cheeks. (Parvati did the same with Harry.) Then, they painted his nails red with gold tips.

Now, Fred, George, and Hermione had lots of fun with Ron. Hermione put corn rolls in Ron's hair, leaving little whispies. Fred and George (who didn't know what the hell they were doing) put black lipstick on Ron's eyes and red and gold sparkles on top. Then, they put powder on his eyebrows and eye shadow with sparkles on his lips. Then, Hermione wrote, 'I am the mighty Ronald Weasley! Bow down to me!' on his cheeks with black lipstick. Then, Fred and George painted Ron's nails with Parvati's damaged lipstick and Ron had multi-colored nails.

"Okay Parvati, Lavender, and Hermione! Go hide whatever you use to take off this makeup and nail polish!" Fred said.

Then, they woke up, Lavender, Parvati and Hermione were holding mirrors over Oliver, Harry, and Ron's faces. So, when they woke up they screamed. "What the bloody hell is this?" Ron yelled.

Fred and George had a Muggle camera that Hermione had brought. Fred and George had bewitched the camera to work on Hogwarts grounds. They took pictures of the three boys in makeup. Then, Harry jumped up and started chasing after Parvati. She ran through the portrait hole and down the corridor.

Oliver jumped up and started chasing Lavender all around the common room. Then, they ran off and Lavender checked over her shoulder and ran into Dumbledore. "What are you two doing?" he asked as he looked at Oliver's face,

"Ummm…nothing…" Oliver said trying to cover up his face.

"Young love…I remember that…I used to be in love once," Dumbledore said, tears welling up in his eyes. "Minerva…MINERVE COME BACK!" he said running in the direction of McGonagall's office.

As Harry was chasing Parvati down the Potions corridor, Parvati ran into Snape, who said, "What are two young Gryffindors such as yourselves doing inside…on a day like this?"

"Hmmm…what were you doing with Minerva at the Shrieking Shack?" Parvati asked.

"How do you know?" he said as his lip curled with anger.

"Oh…we have our ways…" Harry said.

"Okay…five points to Gryffindor if you don't tell!" Snape said starting to sweat.

Parvati and Harry looked at each other and started screaming, "Professor Snape and Professor Mc-"

"Okay! Okay! Five points EACH!" Snape said.

"Professor Dumbledore! Professor Dumbledore!" they started yelling again.

"Okay! Okay! Fifty points to each of you!" said Snape.

"Okay, Professor!" Parvati said. “We won't tell anyone.

Then, Snape ran off towards McGonagall's office yelling, "I LOVE YOU MINERVA! MINERVA COME BACK TO ME!"

"Ewwwwwwwwwww!" Harry said as he took Parvati's hand and led her back to the common room. On the way back, they saw Oliver and Lavender holding hands and talking about something. "Having fun, Oliver?"

"Yes! I am having lots of fun!" Oliver said, grinning, kissing Lavender's hands

"You actually left the common room like that?" Harry asked looking at Oliver's hair and face.

"I left the common room? What about you?" Oliver said laughing.

"Ha! Ha! Ha!" Harry laughed as he looked at Oliver's tie-dyed spiked hair.

Then, a few days later, on Christmas morning, they were all down in the common room, when McGonagall, and Snape came through the portrait hole. "Which one of you did it?" McGonagall said looking very much like a mad hippogriff.

A/N: Who did what? Was it Fred and George like it always is? UH-OH!!! Find out in the next chapter!!!
