The Reign of Lovely Terror

"Andy, I have some Valentines ready to hand out," I said to my dwarven partner.

"Lad, they wouldn't be from or to those four boys that you're staring at, would they?" asked Andy

"you know what? Now that you mention it, they are." I feigned shock. "Funny that ey." 

"yes, very funny," Andy said with a smile. "Looks like they already know the funny Joke." he turned to me. "Which one first." 

"the redhead" I stared down at Ron.

"Okay, you take the lead," Andy said.

I smiled sweetly at Ron and walked over to the Gryffindor table, looking for the bushy-haired girl. Once I got to Hermione, I smiled down at her.

"Hermione Granger, This is a love song requested by a flaming hot dude" I winked at her and quickly looked to Ron, then back to her. Ron's face had gone pale. 

I started to strum softly; I thought of a song that I knew had made all 12-year-olds squeal and shout in the early 2010s.

•What makes you beautiful by one direction• acoustic cover by Boyce Avenue•

♫You're insecure Don't know what for

You're turnin' heads when you walk through the door

Don't need makeup to cover up

Bein' the way that you are is enough♫

I sang softly and sweetly with a charming smile. 

♫Everyone else in the room can see it

Everyone else but you♫

I smiled and looked around; I noticed a lot of girls' faces staring at me and Hermione was red as a tomato.

♫Baby, you light up my world like nobody else

The way that you flip your hair gets me overwhelmed

But when you smile at the ground, it ain't hard to tell

You don't know, oh-oh, you don't know you're beautiful

That's what makes you beautiful♫ 

I finished the song after one verse with a soft solo and another.

♫You don't know, oh-oh, you don't know you're beautiful

That's what makes you beautiful♫

there was fast clapping coming from the Gryffindor girls.

"Again, requested by the flaming hot dude", I said and turned and walked past my friends, who were now terrified. As I passed them, I whispered, "One down, three to go."

Andy had actual valentines to give out, so I followed him and played some music as he read out the terrible pomes of school children. "All right, next is Miss Tina Cross." 'oh crap,' I thought.

We found Tina with her group of friends. I stood rigid and played as Andy delivered a silly poem about her bass, making some kid's heart boom boom boom. It was very difficult not to laugh.

"Who next on your list, boy," asked Andy. I looked at my timetable. It was a school day, but I had been given the day off to do this. I have no idea why, but it was signed by Dumbledore.

the Slytherin had a history of magic with the Hufflepuff. 'perfect'

"my roommates had a request" I smiled "there currently in a class that wont be interrupted with us being there." so i led andy to the history of magic classroom.

Professor Binns didn't even notice us enter, but everyone else did; the boys went pale. Especially Grant and Tim. They shook their heads as the reaper had come for their lives. I slowly nodded to them. 

"Miss Hanna Abbot and Susan Bones, this was requested by two cool cats", I said loudly; most of the boys sighed in relief, but the girls in question looked confused.

I stood in front of the girls and played it sweetly

♫Oh, her eyes, her eyes

Make the stars look like they're not shinin'

Her hair, her hair

Falls perfectly without her tryin'

She's so beautiful and I tell her everyday♫

I let my magic free here and made love hearts and pink petals of light fall on the girls.

♫Yeah, I know, I know

When I compliment her, she won't believe me

And it's so, it's so

Sad to think that she don't see what I see

But every time she asks me, "Do I look okay?"

I say♫

With a little push of the wind, I sent the hearts twirling into the sky and filled the classroom.

♫When I see your face

There's not a thing that I would change

'Cause you're amazing

Just the way you are

And when you smile

The whole world stops and stares for a while

'Cause girl, you're amazing

Just the way you are

Yeah♫

I slowed the song as if I was finishing, then looked at Grant and Tim and winked.

♫Her lips, her lips

I could kiss them all day if she'd let me

Her laugh, her laugh

She hates, but I think it's so sexy

She's so beautiful and I tell her everyday

Oh, you know, you know

You know I'd never ask you to change

If perfect's what you're searchin' for, then just stay the same

So don't even bother askin' if you look okay

You know I'll say♫

Roses grew from the edges of classroom desks.

♫When I see your face

There's not a thing that I would change

'Cause you're amazing

Just the way you are

And when you smile

The whole world stops and stares for a while

'Cause girl, you're amazing

Just the way you are♫

The swirl of hearts and petals flowed towards Grant and Tim, then swiftly came back to the girls and faded as the song did.

♫girl, you're amazing

Just the way you are

Yeah♫

"Two cool cats requested this song," I said and left with the biggest grin on my face. Professor Binns continued his lecture as if nothing had happened.

During lunch, we got given another list of valentines to hand out, and I looked it over. "I'll do Harrys", I said to Andy.

"he's the last one, right?" Andy asked, and I nodded. "Are you sure this is a proper one written by someone?"

"yeah, I'm sure Ginny won't mind," I said.

"Well, I say you are quite good at love songs. There were a few requests for you to play some," Andy said.

"You turned them down right," I asked, "because I can do them out of revenge, but I'm not embarrassing myself for no money." 

"yeah, yeah, we already had this argument." Andy waved me off and ate his sandwich; the argument was I was getting four galleons to play back up to for the dwarf. If they wanted me to take the lead, I would need the money from the request. They shut it down quickly.

--

We found Harry exactly where I wanted in front of the queuing first-years, including Ginny.

I snuck up on Harry. "Hello, Harry", I said behind him, loud enough for everyone to hear. "I come with a with a poem from a lovely lady". *ahem*

"His eyes are as green as a fresh pickled toad,

His hair is as dark as a blackboard.

I wish he was mine, he's really divine,

The hero who conquered the Dark Lord."

"Please don't," Harry said as people laughed at his embarrassment.

"Oh, Miss Weasley, you are here too, good; this song is requested to be played for you."

•Teenage Dream by Boyce Avenue•

♫I think you're pretty

Without any makeup on

I think you're funny

When you tell the punchline wrong

I knew you got me

So you let your walls come down, down♫

I sang softly, standing right next to Harry, who was turning red, as well as Ginny.

♫Before you met me

I was alright, but things

Were kinda heavy

You brought me to life

Now every February

You'll be my Valentine, Valentine♫

Harry tried to leave, but Andy grabbed him and made him stay.

♫Let's just talk all through the night

There's no need to rush

We can dance, until we die

You and I, will be young forever♫

I smiled and spun as I started to sing the chorus.

♫You make me feel

Like I'm livin' a

Teenage dream

The way you turn me on

I can't sleep

Let's run away and

Don't ever look back

Don't ever look back♫

Harry was really struggling in Andy's arms.

♫My heart stops

When you look at me

Just one touch

Now baby I believe

This is real

So take a chance and

Don't ever look back

Don't ever look back♫

I winked at Harry and slowed the song to a stop, Repeating the line and looking at Ginny.

♫Now every February

You'll be my Valentine, Valentine♫

Harry finally struggled free, Tom Riddle's diary spilling out on the floor. I stared at the evil thing along with Ginny. Harry quickly scooped it up and ran. 

-A/n-

There was a lot of Boyce Avenue here because I was looking for acoustic versions of the songs, and they kept coming up.
