Sinners and Saints

Part 16

Hermione's p.o.v.

Fred walked along the deserted corridors of Hogwarts, making his way to McGonagall's office so he could floo back to the flat above the twins shop. As he ambled slowly in the halls, remembering all the good times he had had with his twin wreaking havoc within these walls. He sighed a sad sort of sigh, knowing that even though it was over there was still so much of his life left to explore. He knew for certain that he wanted to spend it with the witch he had just left reading in her dorm room.

Once he reached the headmistress' office, he quickly flooed back to his flat.

"Georgie? You home?" Fred called.

He heard a shuffling sound coming from the bedroom before a slightly flustered George appeared closing the door firmly behind.

Fred was confused to say the least, he felt that this had happened to him a lot in the last few days.

"Why are you back? Why did Ron call you to Hogwarts?" George asked.

"I'm just stopping by to get some stuff for me to stay at Hogwarts a bit longer, Hermione had another episode and she had been bleeding out for ages before anyone found her so I'm looking after her for a bit until she fully recovers." Fred replied, he hesitated before continuing, "What's up with you, why do you look so flustered? And why are you wearing my shirt, inside out and back to front?"

George took a long time at formulating a response before saying anything.

"I, ummm, not much, I was in a rush this morning when I got dressed must have grabbed one of your shirts and not noticed I was wearing it inside out. Had a jumper on you see, so no one could have told me cause they couldn't see it. Yeah, so."

"Well, okay." said Fred, still fairly unconvinced that his brother was telling the truth, "I just need to go in and grab some of my things and I'll be out of your way until Monday, I should think. You be able to keep shop by yourself till then?"

"Yep should be able to."

Fred made his way towards their bedroom, the flat was small and since they didn't have loads of money, the twins still had to share a bedroom, not that they minded, they had been sharing a room for their whole lives, a few more years wouldn't hurt. They both knew they couldn't live above the shop forever.

George, however, didn't budge from the door as Fred made his way towards him.

"Georgie, what's going on? You got a girl in there or something?" Fred teased, but when he saw his brother's face drop and start to turn slightly red, which was incredibly rare for any Weasley man, except Ron, Fred knew he had hit the nail on the head.

"Who is it then?" Fred asked curiously, it had been a while since George had had a girlfriend of any sort.

"You promise you won't make a big deal out of this, it's very new and I really like her." George half pleaded.

"Fine." Fred agreed to his terms.

George opened the door and there sitting on his bed was Angelina Johnson. Fred was at a loss for words, also something uncommon amongst the Weasley men.

"Hi, Fred long time no see." Angelina said with a smile.

They had briefly dated in their sixth year at Hogwarts but nothing had really come from it, both agreeing they should stay friends.

Fred smirked and said "Come back for some more Weasley, hey Johnson, one not enough for you." Earning him a smack up the head from George.

"More like in need of a better association with the name since my first attempt was such a failure." Angelina retorted back, all things playful, she had definitely missed the Weasley twins, all of them having been so close being on the Gryffindor quidditch team and all.
