Ed and Mi (fremione)

Romeo and Juliet

Summer before 5th year at grimmrald place.

Fred's POV

It was midnight and I couldn't get to sleep. After a while of tossing and turning, I decided to go have a cup of tea. As I walked through the living room, I heard a small rustle and look over to the sofa and saw Hermione sitting there. She was reading a book (like usual)
"Hermione?" I say.
She jumps, then looks up at me and says, "Oh, Fred it's just you. You scared me."
"Sorry. What are you doing up?" I ask, sitting down next to her.
"I'm just reading, I always do at this time. It's at lot quieter at night and I find it difficult to fall asleep. What about you?"
"I couldn't sleep I never really can. Do you want a cup of tea?"
"Sure." She smiles at me,
*Gosh she has a pretty smile. Wait what am I thinking? Stop thinking that.*
"Do you want sugar?"

"No thanks."

Hermione's POV

I was reading peacefully when Fred came down and scared me. But I don't think he did it on purpose though, which is good. We talked for a few minutes, then he asked if I wanted a cup of tea I said yes.

He sat down next to me and passed me my tea and then said, "What are you reading?"
"A book called Romeo and Juliet."
"What's it about?" He asked, smiling at me. I love Fred's smile. It makes me so happy and gives me a warm feeling.
"It about two people who are in love but can't be together."
"Why can't they be together?"
"Their families are enemies and have been for generations."
"Why is that a problem?"
"How about we imagine that Ginny and Malfoy were a couple, how would your families feel?"
"They probably wouldn't like it"
"See that's what is happening and they can't be together because of it."
"That's just sad, if Ginny really was to be with Draco I would support it."
"That's kind of you." I smile at him and he smiles back.
"Do you think you could read it to me?" He asks, putting his mug down.
"I can but I'm half way through it."
"That's alright! Just give me the gist of what's happening so far."
"Juliet has been put in an arranged marriage but does not like the man her family picked for her. There was a party at Juliet's mansion, Romeo and his friends sneak in and that is when Juliet and Romeo meet. They fall in love and now they are trying to find a way to be together."
"Sounds interesting."

30 mins later

"Wtf, why did he kill him self? He is an idiot, why would he do that? Bloody hell, like I know he loved her but that is too far." Fred was almost shouting, it was funny to see him that annoyed but I was worried he would wake everyone up.
"Fred, Fred quiet down, you might wake the others."
"Oh yeah, sorry Mi."
"Mi?"
He grins, "Mi, my new nickname for you." His smile dropped, "Merlin, I forgot you don't like nicknames. I'm sorry."
"Mi, Mi! I like it. But only if I can call you Ed or Ri."
I saw him mouthing them both to himself, till he said, "I like Ed."
*Ed and Mi sound like couple nicknames. Merlin, Hermione don't think that*
"I'm going to go to bed it's getting really late and Harry is coming tomorrow so I want to be awake enough." I say.
He looks a bit sad for a second, but then smiles quickly. I can still see it in his eyes that's somethings wrong. I was about to ask him if he's okay but then he say's, "Okay that's fine I'm tired too."
I stand up, give him a quick hug and say, "Night Ed."
He smiles at me, looking straight into my eyes. I start to blush and look away. It's dark in the room so I don't think he noticed. He kisses me on the forehead and says, "Night Mi."
He then walks away, turns at the door and smiles at me again. I love that smile. I love hugging him, it makes me feel so happy and takes all my worries away. When he kissed my forehead I got a warm feeling through my body. All I know is that I really like him just don't know what to do.

Fred's POV

I was sad when Mi said she had to go to bed. I just really liked spending time with her, we don't normally get to, just the two of us. When she hugged me I got a similar feeling as I did at the Yule ball last year. A feeling of happiness and like all my worries just get taken away. And when I kissed her this warm, electric feeling ran through my body. I'm not sure what that feeling means. All I know is that I really like her but I don't know what to do.
