A/n: Fred never died in my eyes. I choose to ignore it. That's all.
Prompt: "I can't sleep."
"Fred... Fred... FRED!"
"Merlin's beard, George! What the-?" Fred was startled out of his sleep by his twin brother jumping onto his bed right in between hisself and Angelina.
"I'm going to make some tea." Angelina groaned, being in a relationship with Fred also included George. He sat up in the middle of the bed as Fred gawked at him, expecting him to at least move to the chair or the floor. Instead, he sat right there in between Fred and Angelina like a child who'd had a bad dream.
"I can't sleep." He said quietly. Fred rubbed his sleep eyes and groaned.
"Yes, brother, we've established that."
George looked up onto the ceiling taking the cup of tea out of Angelina's hands. "Thanks, love!" Angelina's jaw dropped open, as she made the tea for herself.
"I-" she groaned, "ugh. What's wrong?"
"Claire." George sighed through a hot sip of tea.
Angelina and Fred looked at each other and groaned. "Georgie, mate, we've been through this." Fred rubbed his back.
"She's getting married tomorrow. I can't stop thinking about her. I should be the one she's marrying." He hissed, jumping to his feet and handing the cup of tea back to Angelina. He paced the room furiously, running his hands through his shaggy red hair. He'd let it grow since they left Hogwarts. Angelina and Fred were married and they all three lived in the flat above the shop. Claire was George's sweetheart all through their time at Hogwarts, mainly flirting. They began an actual relationship right before the war. George wanted to marry that girl, he knew that from the start. Nevertheless, following the war, the shop got busier and Claire's training as an auror took a toll on the relationship. They broke up.
It had been two years and she had met a man at her job, Thomas, who was a muggle born wizard the same age as Charlie. They hit it off instantly. Claire hadn't heard from George in quite a while, so she moved on. Thomas fell quick, hard. Claire, eager to start a family like the rest of her friends, settled for Thomas and accepted his marriage proposal. She couldn't lie... George frequented her mind everyday.
"George, it's been two years. You had two years to get her back and now that she's getting married, you want her? She's happy!" Angelina growled. She had witnessed how heart broken they both were over each other. She knew that Claire loved George and George loved Claire... but, she was happy. Angelina enjoyed seeing her friend happy and was slightly angry that George wanted to ruin that.
"You know just as well as I do she's not happy with that git." Fred chimed in, earning a smack on the arm from his wife. He was not helping her argument.
"Leave her be, George." Angelina said once more. George froze in his steps.
"I've not stopped thinking about her. For two years... it's constant. I was just too stubborn to admit it. I don't want her with anyone else but me." He said through gritted teeth, not angry at anyone in particular; he was angry he wasn't going to be the one standing at the alter tomorrow.
"Crash the wedding." Fred said with a sneaky smile. George's eyes lit up with excitement, Angelina's with terror.
"No, absolutely not. You two don't get any ideas-" Angelina tried to beg, but it was too late. The twins had a special connection and she could already see the ideas going back and forth.
"The wizbangs..."
"We could give Thomas a puking pastille.."
"Angelina's invited, there's our way in-"
"Do not drag me into this." She hissed, "George, if you are insisting on crashing the wedding.. you better know what you're going to say to her. Wizbangs and a show are not going to win her over."
"Don't worry, love." Fred beamed, throwing an arm over his wife. "Georgie here is good with words, I'm good with actions." He grabbed her waist and jerked her down, warranting a giggle.
"Okay. I'm leaving on that note. Be ready, first thing in the morning. We have some planning to do." George grinned evilly.
