SHOPPING TRIPS & BROKEN HEARTS

GEORGE'S POV

I opened my eyes in the morning and Fred's face was smirking. Here we go. The teasing is set to begin.

"Morninnnn georgie, sleep well" Fred said sarcastically across the room.

"Yeah great" I replied bluntly.

"Sooooo" he pushed.

"Sooooo?" I answered rhetorically.

"What happened last night? Did you make a move?" Fred asked.

"We almost kissed..." I started.

But Fred interrupted immediately "YES GEORGIE FINALLY MOVING ON FROM.. Wait you almost kissed?"

"Sirius walked in" I replied bluntly.

"No way how did he take it, what did he say" Fred pushed.

"How did who take what?" Harry asked walking into the room.

"Bloody hell are you two still in bed" Ron continued.

"Nothing and shut up Ron" I quickly said.

"Hey breakfast is ready" Ginny walked past saying.

Ugh. I got out of bed and quickly jumped in the shower. Where do I go from here? Do I act normal? Do I mention it to Harry? I mean would he really mind.. what if Sirius mentions it. Crap! What do I do now..

ALEX'S POV

"Morning" I said to everyone as I walked into the dining room.

Everyone mumbled morning back, George wasn't here yet. I took my seat beside Sirius, opposite harry and sipped my tea. I was not a morning person.

"Mum, what time are we going" Ron asked Mrs Weasley.

"In an hour, is everyone coming" replied Mrs Weasley.

"Yes please, I've got some books to pick up, I'm thinking of getting a new quill this ones pretty worn out. Alex you're in sixth year now, its a BIG year are you ready? Have you got your books? How you feeling?" Hermione shot out every quickly.

"Errm" I muttered back confused. Which answer do I give first. I looked confused I could tell.

There was a chuckle from the doorway. It was George followed by Fred. He smiled in my direction and Fred just smirked wiggling his eyebrows. He must have got filled in this morning.

"You have to excuse Alex, she's not a morning person you see. Plus she was up very late last night" Sirius commented very sarcastically while raising an eyebrow.

I ignored him and carried on sipping my tea as everyone spoke around me. I was finally waking up slightly and started zoning into conversation slowly.

"Anyone need to go into Gringotts?" Asked Mr Weasley, looking in mine and Hermione's direction.

"No I should be fine, I went earlier in the week with mum and dad" she replied.

"I do, I've not been in a while so I'll pop in when we get there" I added.

"Now now you can't go alone, these are darks times" Mr Weasley replied.

'I'm sure I'll be — I started before I got interrupted by Fred.

"We'll go with her" Fred abruptly said., "Right George?"

"Yeah why not" George replied quietly. He wasn't really paying attention, too busy kicking Fred under the table.

Was he regretting last night? Did he not like me? Maybe it was just a 'in the moment thing'..
