The next morning Emilia got woken up by a humming sound. As she slowly opened her eyes, she saw Fred in front of her. He was changing into his work outfit.
She silently turned around slightly to look at him. His brown trousers where already fitted around his hips. But his back was out in the open.

Emilia realised he had never seen him shirtless. Not even at Quidditch practice in the summer. For some reason it had never occured and now she realised what she missed. 
Yeah, George and him were twins. But it was different seeing Fred like this. It made her feel some type of way. 
He had light freckles all over his back. His trousers were still hanging low and she saw the black line of his boxershort. 

She bit her lip as she watched him put on his blue blouse. His shoulderblade muscles flexing as he let his arms fall again. Clearly starting to button up the blouse. 
Emilia sat up and that's when Fred looked around. 
He slight smirk came upon his face.
He was halfway done with buttoning his blouse and his abs were clearly visible. Emilia couldn't resist looking down and up again to meet his hazel eyes. 

"How long have you been up?" he smirked. 
"Not that long." she said with hoarse voice. 
Emilia's face went red the moment the words left her mouth. 
"I-I should probably go change.." she stuttered, as she was about to stand up and leave the room. 

But Fred was having none of it. 
"How about you stay. It's not like you've never seen George shirtless." he said smartly. 
"Well, Fred, that's different." she argued, but it didn't really help. 
"Oh, please tell me more, Emilia." he laughed amusingly, as he put on his brown blazer. He didn't take his eyes of her for a single second. 

Emilia simply shook her head and walked out of the room. She knew Fred was still looking at her and maybe she walked just a little more seductive. She heard him chuckle softly, before she entered the bathroom to brush her teeth and take a quick shower.

That's when she realised how tired she was. It was eight in the morning and she had only slept three hours. She saw the huge circles around her eyes and groaned loudly. At this moment she had no clue were she put her make up and she wasn't gonna have time to go search for it. 
She quickly put a drying spell over her hair and put it in a bun, before she wrapped her towel  around her body. 

She quickly walked into George his room, hoping nobody would be there. 
She was lucky for once and put on some clean underwear. Then she chose a blue outfit to match Fred. Emilia thought Fred would definitely like that. 
She grabbed a navy blue blouse and fitted black jeans. 
And just as she about to put on her blouse, somebody walked into the room. 
"Oh my-" she yelled, hiding her body with the clothing items in her hand. 
"Oh shit!
"Fred, go away. Wrong room, wrong damn room!" she yelled, as she heard the door close again.

She groaned loudly and quickly put on her outfit. When she turned around, she saw the photo of her family again. Lee and George never moved it and that made her smile slightly. She kinda hoped they turned it around once in a while. As she didn't knew exactly what they were up to. 
She looked at her parents. Happily alive, just a few years before it all happened. 
She smiled half-heartedly and nodded. Someday she would find out why this all happened. She was gonna make sure. 

As Emilia opened George's door a few minutes later, she was greeted by Fred. He was leaning against the wall, next to his own bedroom door. 
He still had the same attitude as he did when she woke up. So Emilia decided to play with him a little bit. 

"You liked what you saw?" she teased him. To her surprise he was taken back by her words. Then his gorgeous smirk came back on his face. She was starting to like it on him. 
"I barely saw anything." he admitted, licking his lips slowly.  "But what I saw, I liked." 
He wiggled his eyebrows, as he quickly grabbed his doorhandle and disappeared into his own room. 
"Come back here, you coward!" she said, although her heart was racing. 
She went after him and when she opened the door, he grabbed her by her waist and pulled her in. 

"I've been waiting for this." he whispered, holding her as close as possible.
"I see you matched my outfit.." he noticed. 
"I thought you would like it." she whispered seductively, as she pushed her hands onto his chest. 
"I do, very much." he admitted. 

He was now so close to her that his lips were practically on hers already. 
"But I like you better without." he smirked, before he pushed his lips onto hers.
She moved into him, making him slightly bend over. The kiss got heated quickly and Emilia completely forgot what happened yesterday in the shop. 
She moved her hands onto his cheek and discovered his lips with her tongue. 
"We need to work soon.." Fred whispered in a hasty breath. 
"Shut up." she said quickly, before she lead him to the bed and pushed him down onto it. 
He smiled, as his tongue played a game with her that she never experienced before. 
But they got harshly interrupted by George who was on the other side of the wall. 

"Fred, Emilia. You better come soon! I can't open the shop on my own!" he yelled annoyed. 
Emilia started giggling and looked down at Fred. 
"You heard him." he said slowly. 
His thumb was on her lower lip, as he slowly moved it downwards. 
"We should go." he said, out of breath. 

He was staring at her like there was nothing more beautiful in the world. And maybe for Fred that was the case anyway. 
And she was staring at him as if she had just discovered the greatest dessert in the world. 

"Okay." she mumbled. "Yeah, let's go." 
She stood up, straightening her clothes as she opened the door. 
"Yeah, uh, I'll be coming soon." he said, his cheeks turning red slowly. 
Emilia hold back her laugh and nodded at him. 
Before she left the room, she winked at him. To which he groaned loudly. 
"Emilia!" he yelled after her, but she was already long gone. 

"Where is Freddie?" George asked, when she came into the living room. 
He was ready to head over to the shop. 
"He will be coming soon." she laughed. 
George shrugged and opened the door for her. That's when he realised what might have happened. He looked at Emilia, his eyes wide open. 
"I did nothing!" she said quickly, but she couldn't hold her laugh. 
"Unbelievable!" he said, following her downstairs. 

Emilia watched as George opened the shop and followed George inside. The lights flickered on immediately. 
"Lee can't join us today, Emi. So I want you at the desk. Some heavy boxes came in yesterday. Fred and I will be unpacking them and most of it probably needs to go to the storage later." 
Emilia listened as George told her the plans of the day. Tuesday usely weren't the busiest days, but they needed to make sure every costumer would be happy. 
So if there wasn't someone at her desk, she needed to make sure everybody in the shop was pleased. 
Luckily Emilia still knew how to work her magic around costumers.

Five minutes later Fred came into the shop. Even though he looked very pleased with himself, she suddenly noticed how tired he looked. 
He walked up to her, planting a kiss on her cheek. Luckily George was nowhere to be seen. 

"Have you slept at all tonight?" Emilia asked, after she brushed her hand through his wild hair. 
He shook his head, smiling as if he just got caught stealing candy. 
"Are you serious?" she asked, not believing him at all. He had been joking all morning. 
"I am. I wanted to make sure you felt okay and didn't get another nightmare." he admitted. 

The serious look on his face made her realise he wasn't actually joking. 
"That is very sweet of you, Freddie." she sighed. "But next time just go to sleep okay." 
He looked down at her and nodded. 
"Thank you." she said, stroking his cheek with her thumb. 
"No problem, Emi." 

A big smile came upon her face, as he took her hand and squeezed it softly. And that's when the butterflies in her stomach started flattering around like they wanted to escape really badly. 
She didn't know why, because even though he was staring at her it wasn't really different than before. 

Then she realised what it was. The caring and the lust all at once. She loved how he cared for her, but she absolutely loved it even more when showed it with his lips and his hands. 

"I'd definitely do it again for you. Staying up, I mean." he smiled. 
He gave her quick kiss, before he took the stairs two steps at once and disappeared in the office. Leaving her with a big smile on her face. Maybe Fred wasn't so bad after all. Or atleast she hoped.
