Falling Harder- Fred Weasley

32

Y/n POV

"I'm sorry, Y/n."
I looked at Fred, under his eyes were dark and his actual eyes were red. I swallowed and his sighed, "Look-" I started. His eyes shot up, "I'm not looking for a second chance or anything, but can we at least try to go back to being friends?" He asked. I bit the inside of my cheek, "Fred-"
"Y/n I'm really sorry, I should have told you I still had feelings for Hannah. But it's killing me to not hang out with you, I want to start fresh." He tried explaining. I didn't feel bad, but I didn't feel glad. I wasn't sure what I was gonna do. It's been a few weeks since the incident.

"So?" He asked, I thought for a moment. He watched me, "Please." He said quietly. I looked around and then back at him, "I'm sorry." I said. He looked at me puzzled, "For what?" I looked down. "I can't forgive you Fred, at least not right now. Maybe in the future, but I can't right now." I explained. He frowned, "I get it." He said, "Take your time. I'm willing to wait." He said trying to bring a smile to his face. "Thanks Freddie." I said standing up and brushing off my legs. "Of course." He said quietly. I gave him a small smile and walked out.

Fred POV

I wasn't lying. I'd wait for her to make her decision. I was such a dick, I still am, but I'd do anything for her. The other day when she saw me and Hannah, it hurt to watch her face. She went from smiling and laughing at something George had said to wanting to just disappear in that moment.

George hated me at this moment, Lee couldn't even look at me, and Angelina regrets letting me date Y/n. Adrian and Cedric still glare at me in the hallways. I knew why of course, and I deserved it. But I want a second chance, not to be in relationship, but to try and be friends again. When she said she couldn't forgive me I understood why, I hurt her, a lot. Like I said before, I'm willing to wait.

Y/n POV (sorry for the POV switches)

I was outside Snapes office waiting for Angelina to come down when I heard a loud conversation a couple doors down. I turned around and then walked towards the noise. I opened the door slightly and saw Harry and the teachers talking. Dumbledore seemed upset, Snape could care less and McGonagall looked horrified. Our new DADA teacher was trying to help but Dumbledore kept interrupting him.

I opened the door more and leaned against the wall. "Miss Black? What are you doing here?" McGonagall asked, I turned my attention to her. Harry looked relieved to see me, "Your supposedly be in my classroom with Miss Johnson." Snape told me. "Locked." I replied. He scoffed and turned back to Harry then me. "What did you use a spell?" He asked, "Didn't feel like it." I replied. He raised an eyebrow before looking back at Harry.

"Was this your doing?"

My doing? I thought, what could I possibly done now. "What?" I asked, "Did you help mister Potter put his name in?" He asked. I snickered making the teachers look at me confusingly. "You really think I'd put my brother in danger?" I asked, they looked even more confused when I said brother. To be honest me and Harry saw each other as siblings. McGonagall covered her mouth to hide her smile. "Wha-Never mind, did you put his name in the goblet?" Snape asked, "No." I answered. Snape gave me a 'Your lying' look.

"She's not even at age Severus!" McGonagall exclaimed. You go Minnie. "You saw what the Weasleys twins did, trying to put their name in. She's friends with them, who knows she probably done the same." He tried explaining. "Harry go with Miss Black; Miss Black I'm canceling you and Miss Johnson's detention for tonight, meet Professor Snape tomorrow." Dumbledore told us. Harry nodded quickly and followed me out of the room.

We could still hear the faint arguments from outside. "Thank you." He said, "What are sisters for?" He smiled and continuing walking with me. "Harry can I tell you something?" I asked, he nodded. "But you can't tell anyone." He groaned. "Not even Ron it Hermione?" He asked, "Nope. Just between us two." I answered. He thought for a second, "Oh come on Harry!" He smiled. "Alright, Alright. I won't tell anyone. Go ahead;"

I explained to him what had just happened with Fred and he didn't seem to upset. "I'm glad you didn't forgive him." Harry told me. "Me too." I added, "I just think it's to soon, you know?" He nodded in agreement.

"So; what'd you and Angelina use the map for?" He asked. "To get some stuff for pranks." I replied. "Nice, what'd you get?" He asked again. "Spray paint, fireworks. You know, the basic stuff." I answered. "I've gotten a letter from your father." Harry started, "Really?" I asked. He nodded, "Something about wanting us to be bold and make Snape mad." He told me. "That's it!" I exclaimed. Harry looked puzzled, "You know how Snape hates the Marauders? I've got a perfect idea!" I blurted. "Like what?" He asked. I grabbed his hand and ran towards the Gryffindor towers, "Wait here. I'll get the spray paint." I told him. He was confused but nodded.

I ran up to my dorm room and grabbed cans of Red and Gold. Angelina wasn't there, so she was probably with Lee.

I went back down stairs and handed Harry a few cans. "This stuff lasts like a month!" He examined. "Yup." I replied happily. "Come on!" I called, Harry followed me. "Where are we going?" He asked; "Snapes room." I replied. Harry smiled, Snape was no where in sight. "Shit!" I said under my breath. "What?" He asked, "Filch." I answered. I unlocked the door, "Come." I said, pulling him into Snapes room. "Go in the closet, I'll wait out here."

The door creaked open and Filch looked at me. "What are you doing here?" He asked. "I need to ask Professor Snape a question." I answered. He nodded slowly, "Alright. But get back to the dorms when your done." He said before closing the door again. I was surprised he left me off that easy, he never lets us off that easy. Lucky I guess.

"Alright Harry come out."

He stepped out and we started the prank. "Write that up there." I said pointing to the back wall by Snapes desk. I placed fireworks on either side of the room hiding them from being seen.
"Perfect." I exclaimed. "Our fathers would be proud." Harry said looking up at the writing. 'Long Live The Marauders' written in gold and red spray paint. "Definitely worth it for another detention." I started. "Unless he doesn't know it was us." Harry said. "I'm pretty sure he'd know it was us." I told him, Harry shrugged still looking at the writing.

Time skip to the next morning:)

"Hurry up Harry." I said running towards Snapes room. "Wait, I'm coming!" He called, finally catching up with me. We sat down and watched as students walked in confused. "Long live the Marauders?" One asked, "What the hell?" Another said. "Just wait." I told Harry.
Angelina, George, Lee, Fred and Hannah came in taking their seats. George and Lee sat together, Hannah and Fred sat together and Angelina sat with Katie. "Snapes coming." Harry whispered to me, "Great." I said with a smirk.

Snape walked in slamming the door before looking up at the writing, "Now!" I exclaimed. Me and Harry pressed the buttons to make the fireworks go off. Students laughed at Snapes reaction, Gold and Red fireworks flying all around the room. "BLACK! POTTER!"
