Wicked Lestrange

The Breakup

Cassondra's POV

Today was the day. I was going to see Fred and we are going to have a talk about us. I look in the mirror one last time. It had been awhile since I had worn my long sleeve black dress. But this dress gave me confidence and I needed as much as I could get today. I walked down the stairs of the Black Mansion to the kitchen.
Remus was being interrogated by Andromeda while Tonks and Sirius watched with amused smiles. Harry, Ron, and Ginny sat in the living room talking. Hermione had went home for the holidays. I walked pass my friends to my family.

" Making sure he is good enough for our Nymphadora, Aunt Andy." I asked pouring myself a cup of tea.
" Don't call me Nymphadora, Cassy." Her hair changed to red.
" Quite Nymphadora. Your name is lovely. I would know I picked it out." Andy scolded her daughter.
Sirius laughed at his cousin.
" What do you think of Remus John Lupin, Cassy?" Andy asked.

" Oh shit he just got middle named." Sirius said under his breath.
" I think he is a good and respectable man." I told her.
Remus gave me a thoughtful smile, while Aunt Andy nodded.
" But then he is also voluntarily friends with Sirius, soo...." I took a sip of my tea.
Tonks laughed, Sirius head shot towards me and glared and Andromeda smiled.
" Not helping Cassondra." Remus shook his head.

" Fine, will leave it up to a vote. Everyone who thinks Remus is worthy of joining the family say I." Andromeda announced.
" I" We all said.
" Alright that's majority. Welcome to the family." Aunt Andy smiled and hugged Remus.
Remus smiled and hugged back.
" Family hug!" Sirius called standing up.
He pulled me and Tonks into a hug with Remus and Andy. He grabbed Harry and brought him in the hug as well.

We all hugged as a family. An odd family but still a family. A metamorphosis, two disowned cousins, the chosen one, the daughter of the dark lord and a werewolf. After we hugged we gathered all of our things to head to the Burrow. We floo over there and we were immediately hit by the smell of all kinds of bake goods.

Ginny and Ron ran off to there rooms taking Harry. I said hello to Mrs. Weasley and Mr. Weasley. Then I saw George.
I ran up to him and tackled him in a hug.

" I missed you Georgie." I mumbled into his chest.
" I missed you two Cassy." George laughed.
" If that's how she greets you, I wonder what will happen when she sees her favorite twin." I heard a voice say.
I looked around George and saw Fred. My heart started beating out of my chest.
" Hi Freddie." I let go of George and tried to walk to him.
George pulled my back by my shoulders. I looked up at him confused. He was glaring at Fred.

" Fred has something he wants to tell you." George said almost in a bitter tone.
" Not here mate." Fred voice cracked a little.
" Yes now." George spat.
" Fred?" I asked.
Fred walked over to me and took me from George's grip. He lead me to an empty spot in the living room.
" Um love you know how hard it's been not to see you?" He asked.
" Yeah, I know. It's been terrible I actually wanted to talk to you about that." I said.

" Let me go first." He told me.
I nodded.
" It's been really hard not seeing you and um you remember Lacy. The girl that works at the shop?" Fred asked.
I felt my heart sting, I knew where this was going.
" Yes." My voice shook.
" Well um we kinda um. We kinda hooked up once or twice. I'm so sorry Cassy." Fred's head dropped down.

Tears filled my eyes. I was preparing on us breaking up but not like this, never this. As soon as he said those words I was back to a fourteen year old girl staring at him across the Great Hall.
" Take it back. Please. Tell me your joking." I let the tears flow down my cheeks.
" I'm so sorry Cassy. But I slept with Lacy. I can't take it back no matter how much I want too." Fred cried.
I took my hands out of his.
" I want to hate you so bad." I told him.
