On the day we came back, everyone needed a little rest. I sat on the couch, reading quietly. Until I was joined by Fred. He sat next to me and rested his head on my lap. "What are you doing?" He asked me. "I'm reading," "Well I'm bored," "Why aren't you with George?" "I want to be with you," He wrapped his arms around my waist, making himself comfortable. I smiled. We talked for a while, and I started playing with his soft hair. All of a sudden he sat up and we stared into each other's eyes. His eyes darted to my lips, and my eyes did the same. We looked back at each other's eyes, and we both leaned in. Our lips were inches apart. "Ahem," Potter cleared his throat loudly. Fred and I immediately backed away and looked at him. "Don't do that in front of me," he hissed.

The next day I was sitting outside and reading again. Fred came and sat on the grass next to me. "You're pretty when you read," I blushed. We made eye contact. "Well, you look pretty all the time really," he looked at my lips. I looked at his. "Ahem," Potter did the same thing as yesterday. We looked at him. "What did I tell you?" he said rudely. Fred gave him a death glare. Potter rolled his eyes and walked away. Ugh, I hate that scar-headed narcissist.

That night, I was in the kitchen making a sandwich. Then Fred came in. "Hello," he greeted. "Hi," "You know, Y/n, there's this thing I've been meaning to do, but every time there's a little interruption," he said. "Oh, really? And what might that be?" I asked. He pulled me closer by my hips, looked me in the eyes, and said, "this," before his lips were on mine. I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him back. I've never been happier. When he pulled away, we were still very close to each other. I blushed again. "Did you know I like you?" He asked. "Well, now I do," "Who do you like?" I could tell he was nervous and gathered all of his courage to do this. "You," I mumbled before kissing him again. He kissed back and when we pulled away, he seemed a bit flustered.

We heard something move, and we looked in the sound's direction. Apparently, my mother was spying on us. "Mum!" "Sorry darling, you're just too adorable I couldn't help it!" I giggled and shook my head. "I'll give you your privacy now," she left. "So, er, I've never done this before what happens now?" Fred asked. I chuckled. "I've never done this before either," "I'll see you tomorrow I guess?" "Umm, sure," We looked into each other's eyes for a bit longer. "Charlotte, I got it!" I heard my dad say. "Oh good, I got one of their first kiss, we'll show the videos to their children!" My mother replied excitedly. "Mum! Dad!" "You'll thank us one day, dear," my dad came out of his hiding place with a video camera. Fred and I laughed awkwardly.

******************************

The next morning I was in the dining room eating breakfast when I overheard Fred and Potter's conversation from the living room. "You told her you'd see her tomorrow?!" Potter was frustrated and shocked."Asked her," Fred corrected. "That's even worse! Why didn't you ask her to be your bloody girlfriend? Or are you playing hard to get? Ooh, you should do that. She'll fall for you even more!" "You think?" "Definitely," Oh, I see. I hate it when people play hard to get, it's useless and dumb.

I finished my bacon and joined them in the living room. I sat in between them. "Morning, boys," I greeted. "Morning," Fred replied. Potter got up and left since that's what he always does when I'm around. "So about last night..." I started. "Yeah, sorry about that," "What do you mean?" "Sorry for leading you on," "Excuse me? Leading me on? What's that supposed to mean?" "I mean I was leading you on even though I shouldn't have been," It's obvious to me he's acting, so I decided to let him know that I'm not something to be played with.

I sighed and shook my head. Then I got up and went to where Hermione was reading and asked her, "is Errol here? I want to send a letter to someone," I knew exactly what I was doing. She looked up at me and gave a questioning look while saying, "Yes, he's here. Who's the letter to?" I jerked my head toward Fred and gave her a 'play along' look. Then I pretended to giggle and said, "Terence," "Terence Higgs? The Slytherin Seeker?" "The one and only, of course! I'll go send the letter," I fake giggled again, this time joined by Hermione. I did want to send a letter to Terence, but he's just a friend.

After sending the letter, I went up to the girls' room and told Ginny and Hermione everything. From us almost kissing on the couch to what happened this morning. "First of all, Harry's a twat. Second of all, your parents are really cool. Third, what you did this morning was brilliant, and fourth, my brother can be stupid sometimes so don't blame him for believing Harry," Ginny listed. "Your parents really are fun," Hermione giggled. Then we heard a knock on the door. "Come in," Ginny called. Potter opened the door and stepped inside. I heard Ginny crack her knuckles. "Hermione, where-" Potter was interrupted. "Harry, come with me. I need to talk to you," Ginny demanded sternly yet sarcastically sweetly.

"Er, sure?" Ginny smiled evilly and dragged him out of the room by his arm. She closed the door. "HOW DARE YOU! HOW DARE YOU RUIN SOMETHING SO PERFECT!" Hermione and I heard her scream. Then we heard a dull thud, followed by Ginny screaming, "THAT WAS FOR INTERRUPTING THEM ON THE COUCH," another thud, "THAT WAS FOR SCOLDING THEM," another thud, "THAT WAS FOR INTERRUPTING THEM OUTSIDE," another thud, "THAT WAS FOR SCOLDING THEM AGAIN," another thud, "THAT WAS FOR TELLING HIM TO PLAY WITH THE POOR GIRL'S HEART," another thud, "THAT WAS FOR TRYING TO RUIN THEIR RELATIONSHIP," another thud, "AND THAT WAS FOR BEING A SLIMY, BRAINLESS, RUDE, SELF-ABSORBED TROLL!"

After she was done, Hermione and I realized she had been punching him. Luckily Percy, Bill, Charlie, Mr. and Mrs. Weasley were in Diagon Alley at the time. Hermione and I rushed out to see if Potter was alright. He was laying on the floor, covered in blood and bruises, Fred, George, and Ron already there. "Ginny, what happened?!" Ron asked, clearly trying to not seem afraid of his little sister. Ginny shrugged innocently. I couldn't help but smile. Ginny's the sweetest. Well, as long as you don't cross her......
