Safe || Fred Weasley x Reader (ON HOLD)

~24~

y/n pov:

Fighting against his grip was no use, he was much stronger than I was.  Harry looked over to me with a questioning look.  He was confused onto why I was trying to get away from "Professor Moody".  

Trying to avoid Harry becoming nervous or scared as well I settled down and continued to trail behind the imposter all the way to his office.  Knowing I had my wand with me was the only thing that kept me somewhat calm. 

The imposter shoved Harry and I into his office and quickly scrambled to a wooden crate of glass jars; he began searching through them anxiously as if he was trying to find a full one.

I was closely examining the man and his behavior but was pulled out of my train of thought when he grabbed both Harry and I's forearm, pressing down on the fresh-cut peter Pettigrew had given us. 

"Your blood runs through the veins of the dark lord," He says in a sinister tone.

Harry and I both winced in pain and pulled our arms away aggressively.

The now morphing imposter had his wand pointed at us getting ready to what I could only assume to kill us.

The door burst open and the imposter who has now revealed himself as Barty Crouch Jr was thrown back into the hair next to Harry and I.

I quickly grabbed Harry's arm pulling him behind Professor Dumbledore and Professor Snape.

Dumbledore opened the chest that sat in the corner of the office and we all slowly crept up to it.  Sure enough at the bottom of the now-open chest sat the real Alastor Moody.

Dumbledore ordered McGonagall to go send an owl to Azkaban and tell them that they are missing a prisoner.

"I'll be welcomed back a hero" Barty spat.

Snape pointed his wand at his neck in a threatening way warning him not to speak.

Dumbledore checked that Harry and I were alright and sent us back to the common room.

Harry and I didn't say a single word to each other on the walk back to the common room; today was not a day to be celebrated but a day we wanted to forget.  I had watched Cedric die right in front of me, I had come face to face with Voldemort and Harry had fought him.  Nothing was going to ever be the same and I think deep down we both knew that.

We both walked into the common room and we were met with four saddened faces.  Fred, George, Hermione, and Ron looked at us their eyes full of sorrow. 

The second I made eye contact with Fred I burst into tears, it had all finally hit me. Voldemort was back, Cedric was dead and I did nothing to stop it.

Fred immediately rushed to me wrapping arms around me in a comforting hug.  I sat there crying in his arms for what felt like forever but was really only 5 minutes.  

"He's back," I say in between sobs

"H-he's gonna hurt us" 

All of my friends were now surrounding me trying to speak words of comfort but I know deep down they knew it too.

"I just want to go to bed," I say wiping my tears.

Everyone nodded in understanding.

I began walking but not before turning around and grabbing Fred's arm.

"Come with me please, I need you" 

"Of course love, anything for you," He says.

Fred and I make our way up to my dorm and yes even though it wasn't allowed, today was different.  I needed Fred with me right now.

I got into bed, pulling the covers over my body.  

Feeling the mattress sink slightly I looked over and there he was my perfect boy Fred Weasley.

He wrapped his arms around me as I lay on his chest. Fred had a way of making me feel safe he had a way of making everything feel okay even if it wasn't.

"It's okay, I'm here now. I promise I won't let anything happen to you, I can't lose you" He whispered.

I kissed him lightly before slowly drifting off to sleep.

I woke up the next morning and Fred was already gone, he must have left due to the other schools leaving Hogwarts today.  We had to say goodbye to them.

I slowly dragged myself out of bed throwing on a jumper and kept on the grey sweatpants I was wearing before.

I walk out of the common room and into the courtyard where everyone was saying their goodbyes.

I didn't really have anyone to say goodbye to so I just scanned the crowd for any familiar faces.

My eyes met a familiar pair of brown ones.  My heart skipped a beat as I made my way over to him, no matter how much time I spent with Fred he still always gave me butterflies.

"Hey Freddie," I say my tone full of sadness whilst wrapping my arms around his torso.

"Goodmorning my love," He says snaking his arm around my waist and kissing my forehead. 

After everyone had said their goodbyes the only people that were left in the courtyard were Me, Harry, Hermione, and Ron.

We stood there in awkward silence before Hermione broke it.

"Everythings going to change now isn't it?" She said sounding just as upset as everyone else was.

"Short answer, yes," I say with a sigh.

"But as long as we have one another, we will always have one constant in our lives and that's something I truly find comfort in, " I say while wrapping my arms around my three friends.

We all knew something bad was coming, we could feel it but for now, we had our summer to forget about all of this and just be normal teenagers for once.  I will get to see my dad and everything will feel normal finally.
