What was it with men and long hair that made Nymphadora Tonks go weak in the knees?
For as long as Tonks could remember, she had had a crush on Kirley McCormack. Kirley was no ordinary wizard. He was the lead guitarist for the Weird Sisters, Tonks’ favorite band. When she had finally seen the band perform live, Tonks’ crush had been cemented. She had no problem imaging him whisking her away. It was the main reason that Tonks went to so many of their shows. She had an impossible hope that Kirley would see her, fall madly in love and take her way. While it was doubtful that her little fantasy would ever come true, she could certainly dream.
And yet as attracted as she was to Kirley, what was it about Bill Weasley that Tonks found so incredibly more appealing? Next to Bill, Kirley was a pale comparison. She didn’t know what it was. Perhaps it was his job. Curse breaking was not the safest of occupations. Or maybe it was his red hair. Either way, Tonks couldn’t place her finger on it, not that she wanted to mind you.
Tonks had attended Hogwarts with Bill. She had even been sorted into Gryffindor, though not in his year. Of course when Bill had attended, Molly had not let his hair to the length that it was now. Back then Tonks had not paid Bill any more attention than she did any other student.
It wasn’t until Tonks had been reintroduced to Bill at her first Order meeting that Tonks felt her knees go weak. He had certainly changed since Hogwarts with his long red hair and the fang for an earring. Then there was the leather and Bill wore it well. It was all Tonks could do not to stare and oggle him at meetings.
Maybe if she fixed herself up, Bill might pay some attention to her. She knew he liked pretty blondes; his current girlfriend was evidence enough. Perhaps she could change her hair? Tonks’ hair could be any color, length or shape. That would not be a problem the only problem is Tonks lacked what Fleur Delacour had in abundance, which was grace. Tonks was dead clumsy. Usually she didn’t mind it, but when Bill was around it was a different story.
“Tonks?…. Tonks?… TONKS?!”
“Huh?” Tonks turned her head over at Charlie and felt a bit of a blush color her cheeks. It was embarrassing to be caught daydreaming. “Oh, sorry.”
“Thinking about Kirley?” Charlie asked her, an amused little grin tugging at his lips.
Tonks frowned at him. For a moment she wondered how he would look with his knees bending backward. She had let it slip once to Ginny that she thought Kirley McCormack was cute. Unfortunately both Fred and George had overheard that discussion and to hear them retell it they made Tonks sound like she was stalking the poor bloke.
“Yeah,” she was less than thrilled with him and her voice indicated as such.
Charlie however, just continued to grin at him. “Mum’s got dinner ready.”
Tonks rose. Turning around she started to walk forward until her feet tripped over the hem of her jeans and she went falling forward. She would have fallen flat on her face had a strong arm not gripped the back of her jeans from behind. “Thanks Charlie,” Tonks turned to smile her thanks at him, only it wasn’t Charlie. “Er.. Ugh…. Thanks Bill.”
“Isn’t that sweet,” Bill commented good naturedly to his brother. “She’s happy that I rescued her.”
If only, Tonks thought to herself and continued to stare at Bill with her mouth open.
Charlie continued to smile and interjected before Tonks could speak, “You can’t blame her. She was thinking about Kirley again.”
“Ohhhh,” Bill replied and exchanged a snicker with his brother.
With an indignant huff, Tonks wrenched herself free of Bill’s grasp and just looked at the two of them. “Really!” She tugged down the hem of her t-shirt and continued to glare at them. “I just didn’t know you were here Bill, is all. You surprised me.”
“Uh huh,” both Bill and Charlie replied in unison.
“D’you two know that you’re just as bad as the twins?”
“Uh huh,” again they both replied.
She wanted to curse them both right then and there. Charlie first because he looked entirely to amused and smug for Tonks’ liking. Bill would be next because he was simply sexier than any man had a right of being. It would have given her much satisfaction.
“If you don’t mind, I’m going to dinner.” Tonks gave them both a curt nod before turning and heading towards the dinning room.
That Bill Weasley, he was far too sexy for her own good.
