The sun shined bright through the windows as I opened my eyes. Hermiones head was still resting on my lap, she's still sound asleep. Her breathing was steady but she started tossing and turning.

I looked at the small clock beside my bed and it was already 9:30. I laid down facing my body towards Hermione. Wow she was beautiful. Her eyes fluttered open and a smile appeared on her face.

"Good Morning" she mumbled

Her voice was quiet and the slightest bit raspy. Her dark brown eyes looked into mine.

"Good morning" I say back

Neither of us broke the eye contact, something was happening inside of me and I'm not sure what it was. It was almost like butterflies. She lifted her head slightly pushing her hair out of her face.

We heard a knock on the door and I yelled come in. I didn't want to get up to open the door so both of us stayed in bed. The door opened and Fred walked in with a little note and a flower.

As he opened the door he stopped immediately just looking at Hermione and I. Apparently sometime last night I had taken my shirt off leaving myself only in my bra and sweats. Hermione was fully clothed in what she wore yesterday, she never changed she just came and went to sleep.

"Am I interrupting something?" He asks looking at me a bit awkwardly.

I shook my head no sitting up, Hermione got up and went to the bathroom. I pulled my legs close to my chest and bringing the blanket along, the bedroom was cold and it wasn't going to get warm anytime soon.

Hermione liked the room a little bit colder while she slept. Fred shivered and sat down next to me, handing me the flower and note.

"I still feel bad about George so I got you something small" He says smiling.

I took the note and Flower out of his hand setting the note down on the table and smelling the flower. A red rose to be precise. It was beautiful and wherever he found it was beyond me.

"Do you know the meaning of a red rose?" I question looking up at him.

I sat the flower down next to the note and looked back at Fred. He looked like he was trying to think really hard.

"No I don't think I do if I'm being honest. My father always brought them home for mum on their anniversary or sometimes just when he'd come home from work. She loves them, She loves him." He said.

As he was finished  speaking his voice had gotten quieter. He was looking down at the ground, I was trying to read his emotions but it's hard.

"Well they sort of represent love and beauty. You're father sounds sweet Freddie I can't wait to meet them...again" I giggle

It was still early and I was tired, just yesterday I woke up on the living room couch to my mother and George messing around and now I woke and and Fred brought me a flower and a note that I still haven't read.

"They'll love you, mum hasn't answered yet but she should by the end of the day. Also come with me to hogsmede, I have to get some really last minute presents" He says standing up.

I smile up at him agreeing that I'll go. I was still tired but I had to get up so I can eat before we go, I swung my legs off the bed standing up throwing the blankets down onto the bed.

My neck hurt from sleeping the way I did, I never sleep sitting up and I shouldn't have last night. I heard the running water coming from the bathroom so I knew Hermione was in the shower.

Fred scrunched his eyes closed turning around. I walked over to my closet just grabbing something to throw on.

"Fred go down to the common room I'll be down in a minute." I tell him as I open the bathroom door walking in.
