After what felt like hours of trying to get Fred to study, Everly found herself getting flustered at every small move that Fred would make but tried her hardest to not make it noticeable.

However, Fred himself had been trying his best to get her to stop studying. He tried everything from shooting glances at her, making obnoxious sounds to even teasing her. But it didn't work, seeming as how Everly's complete focus was on the notes laid out on the table in front of her.

Fred had grown impatient. He thought he would make his way over to try and find something in the library to distract him until she finished.

"I'm gonna take a look around" He recalled as he got up and placed a kiss on Eve's head.

She motioned her hand giving him a thumbs up. Not pulling  away from her studying.

Fred then made his way over to some shelfs behind the table where he previously sat.

Everly continued on with her studying, trying her best to remember what each thing meant when suddenly, she felt someone sitting besides her.

"Back so soon" she says thinking it was Fred.

"What do you mean? I just got here" a familiar voice responds. She looked over at the voice noticing that it wasn't Fred, it was Nick.

Before she got to respond, Nick had reached over to her meeting their lips in a slow kiss.

Forgetting their exchange from last night, Everly sat still in pure confusion. Their kiss from the night before soon started making it's way back to her mind.

"Get away from her!" She heard someone yell as Fred suddenly appeared from behind a bookcase. Hastily making his way over to them.
His hands clutched besides him, his face  formed into a scowl.

Nick quickly stood up looking straight at him. "Not you again" He mutters under his breath. Everly soon began to feel the tension fill the room.

As soon as Fred got closer to Nick, he grabbed a hold of his shirt collar with his fist. Rising Nick slightly, meeting his face closer to his own while staring deep into his eyes. Anger plastered in them.

"What do you think you're doing?" Nick growled. Reaching his hand out and placing it  against Fred's chest, trying to push him off him but Fred's grip only tightened against his collar. 

"I'm doing what I should've done the moment I saw you with her last night" He replies.

I stood there in complete shock. Not fully processing what was about to happen in front of me. I was pulled out of my shocked state when I heard Fred's fist colliding with Nick's jaw.

"Fred Stop!" was all I managed to get out. Fred then shot me a look. The look of pure anger on his face scaring me.

While Fred was distracted, Nick had taken this as an opportunity of getting out of his grip. Pushing him hard, making Fred fly back and collide with the bookcase behind him. A few books falling out to the floor. At the commotion, people began surrounding them. The sound of someone yelling "FIGHT!" over and over again.

Fred swung at Nick once again, hitting him hard on his nose this time. Nick wiped his nose, a smirk on his face as blood smeared all over his hand and began rushing down his nose and onto his blue shirt. I noticed as he tried taking a swing at Fred but he soon dodged it. However, soon swinging with his other arm and colliding his knuckles against Fred's cheek.

Before Fred got to make his next move, I ran in between them. Knowing that neither of them would harm me, pushing their chests with my hands. Trying to get them as far apart as I could. They only looked at each other over me yelling a few profanities back and forth.

In a matter of seconds, Madam Pince came running behind the bookcases yelling for both of them to stop. When she got there, she had noticed that the fight was now over.

As she got a glance of their faces, her eyes widened at the amount of blood that was now coming out from Nick's nose. "Oh my Godrick, you get straight to Madam Pomfrey" She says motioning to Nick. "And you-" She says pointing her finger at Fred. "Whichever one you are, You will go tell Headmaster Dumbledore about what happened here!" She exclaims.

"Right everyone. Move along, show's over" I hear someone behind me say to the people that had gathered around. Madam Pince grabbed a hold of Fred's arm pulling him out of the library and to what I summed would be Dumbledore's office.

I followed behind them, keeping my distance.  As soon as we reached the statue that led to Dumbledores office, Madam Pince turns around leaving Fred to continue his way alone. Once she gets a sight of me, she shoots me a shy smile, muttering "boys" while shaking her head as she begins to make her way back to the library. I laugh at her comment.

I got a hold of Fred before he was able to enter the statue. "Fred you can't do that. Nick's my friend" I said while getting hold of his face. Scanning the bruise that had started to form just below his eye.

"He kissed you Eve. I left you alone for two seconds and he tried taking you from me" He argued, not meeting my eyes.

"I do recall kissing him last night before you and I.. well you know made up" I added. He finally turned to look at me.

"I don't care what he did.  You're mine now and I thought I made that clear last night after I fucked you senseless" He stated.

His words sent shivers down my spine. As hot  as the sight in front of me was, him with a bruise on his face, hair all messy and shirt wrinkled, he couldn't be doing what he had just done. I'm not his, well he at least hasn't asked me to be.

"Fred, you can't just go around punching anyone who so much as looks at me" I say.

"He didn't just look at you Eve, he bloody kissed you!" He asserts.

Before I could say anything else, Dumbledore emerged from the steps. Giving Fred and I a worried look as he had seemed to walk in at the wrong time.

"I'm afraid I have interrupted something" He says a small laugh leaving his lips. Which he quickly tries to cover up by clearing his throat.

"Miss. Moonwater" He nods towards me

"Mr. Weasley. I believe you and I have something to discuss?" He says stepping back to let Fred walk with him.

"We'll talk about this tonight" Fred says before stepping behind the statue and walk down the steps, Dumbledore following after him as he turned back to shoot me a wink.

I walked back to the common room, where Ginny and Harry  sat on the couches talking about quidditch.

"Hey Evie" Ginny exclaims as I approach them.

I was now exhausted, so I plopped down on the arm chair across from them. "Hey guys" I say back.

"Did you hear about Fred getting in a fight with some Slytherin?" Ginny says with a laugh. I stare at her, not knowing if I should say I was the cause of that. I ended up choosing to lie and say I hadn't heard about it.

She went on. "I heard that he was messing with the girl he's been seeing" She says. "Whoever that may be, last week I saw him with about 3 different girls"  That last sentence replaying on my mind. No one other than George and Lorelei seemed to know about Fred and I, but her words still seemed to hurt a bit.

Was I really doing the right thing by starting something with Fred? Would it ever become something more?
