crashing down // Fred Weasley

My My a Marshmellow

Fred's POV:

"She loves you." Lee laughed before lying back into his bed.

"I do not." She mumbled from underneath my quilt.

I just laughed slightly. She really wasn't planning on moving, i can't just leave her there. What would Kenneth think in the morning. I got slowly out of the bed a pulled the quilt of her. She was curled up into a ball with her eyes squinted closed but i swear i could see a smile on her face even though it was flushed red. I wrapped my arm around her back an another round her knee's, smiled to my brother and left the dorms carrying her down into the common room.

I dropped her onto the couch and smiled before walking off back to my dorm. "Night Sophie." I whispered and headed to bed.

The next day i woke up to the sun peering through the boys room. The snow was still falling, no doubt Sophie would want to try and revive Derrick. She's so cute though it's funny. What? Cute? No. She's Ron's best friend's twin, i can't feel that way about her. But every time I'm around her there's that feeling. That feeling i can't explain, but I've never felt it before with anyone. What feeling was it exactly. How did i feel about her. How did she feel about me?

"Good your up." George said entering the dorm.

"Morning to you too brother." I smiled getting out of my bed and throwing on one of my clean tops.

"Have you seen Lee?" He asked pacing back and forth.

"Do i have to remind you, I've only just woke up." I laughed. "Coming for breakfast?"

"Yeah yeah i'll be down in a minute." He said waving his hand. "If you see Lee, tell him to stay away from Sophie!"

"Why what's happening?" I asked stopping in front of the door.

"She's driving me insane." He laughed throwing himself on the bed. "She keeps asking me why I said I'd kiss Lee, convinced I like him or something."

"She's not going to stop you know." I said turning the door handle. "I'll see you at breakfast."

I made my way down the spiral staircase and into the common room, no one else was here. The whole common room seemed like it had been evacuated. Weird for a Sunday. But then again, it's Christmas soon. People are probably in Hogsmeade shopping. Christmas soon, the Yule ball. Everyone is going mental trying to ask people, but who am I going to ask. I could ask Angelina as a friend or, I could ask Sophie. But she'll probably say no, probably going with Diggory. Why does she like him so much? I know she says there not dating but clearly there's something going on, there always with each other.

As I circled the corner towards the Great Hall I heard a very familiar laugh from the other direction. I poked my head around the corner and to my unpleasant surprise I was met with the back of a very tall, very blonde Draco Malfoy. But that wasn't the bad part. The bad part was he was with Sophie. And they were laughing. He was being nice to her? I can't really blame her for talking to him considering non of us told her about him but what was going on? And this close to the Yule Ball. Malfoy's probably just looking for a date, using the new girl move. Not cool.

Normal/Narrator POV:

"How do you recon it happened then?" Draco giggled alongside Sophie.

"Honestly." Sophie sighed. "I haven't got a clue but I mean it's not all that bad."

"Oh really." Malfoy exaggerated.

"Other then it being terrifying it's quite good fun." Sophie laughed.

She wasn't really expecting to be friends with Draco especially after the way his father spoke to Harry the night of the World Cup but he wasn't like his dad. Others may have thought he was but he wasn't. He was nice, he was like a marshmallow for instance. He was burnet and dark on the outside, but on the inside. He was just as good as everyone else. He was such a softie he just needed someone right to share it with, he needed someone to trust. Draco Malfoy was really kind, and super sensitive but he kept up high walls. Much like Sophie, that's why she understood him so well. She knew what it was like to be afraid to let people in, and she wasn't going to go and judge someone because of others opinions.

"Well it was nice talking to you, but I'm hungry so I'm gonna head for some brunch." Sophie nodded with a smiled.

"Brunch?" He asked raising his eyebrow.

"Well a clash between breakfast and lunch." She laughed. "See you later marshmallow."

"Marshmallow?" Draco laughed. "Why call me that?"

Sophie shrugged. "All my friends need a nickname and I don't know that one suits you."

"Friends?" He asked hesitantly. "You wanna be friends with me? Your brother hates me?"

"Lucky I'm not my brother then."
