Fawns Heart

{Forty-nine}

George's pov - 

"What the fuck do you mean she slipped you a love potion?!" I yelled in a whisper.

"It was badly made, before the third task... s- she gave me a flask. Told me it was fire whiskey..." He trailed off.

"Fred-"

"It didn't work properly, I still had feelings for Fawn. But the potion stopped me from telling her. It made me have strong feelings for Angelina. She told me I couldn't tell anyone, otherwise she..."

"What did she say?" 

"She said she would torment Fawn, bully her, do all these terrible things to her." He croaked.

"Fuck Fred. Why didn't you say this before?!" I groaned.

"I was going to, but no one would listen to me." He sighed.

"Mum won't let us send letters, so we'll have to tell her when school goes back." I said sympathetically before rolling around and closing my eyes.

"Thank you." He whispered.

Fucking hell Johnson.

Fawn's pov - 

I woke up to the bright sun light which creeped through the curtains. I had slept for the entire afternoon, throughout the night. I sat up in the soft bed, I looked around the room, trying to remember where I was. After spotting Theo asleep in the worst position, I remembered.

I smiled before standing up and walking over to where he sat.

"Theo?"

"Mmm." He groaned.

"Come lie down." I guided him over to the large bed.

He instantly got in and pulled me in too, he turned me around so my back was facing his front.

"I got rid of the pills." He sighed as he got comfortable, draping an arm over my waist.

"Even the ones in the box?" I asked.

"Even the ones in the box." I could hear his smile as he confirmed my query.

We both ended up falling asleep once again until a there was a knock on the door.

"Mmm, come in." I groaned, my eyes still shut. 

"Fawn, oh?! And Theodore... uh. Breakfast. Come now please." Benedict said quickly before shutting the door and walking downstairs.

"Do we have to get up?" I groaned to Theo.

"Yes. We need to eat." He chuckled as I felt him getting up, "I'm gonna go get dressed, I'll see you downstairs." He smiled.

I sleepily got out of bed and rummaged through my trunk for something decent. In the end, I just went with grey sweatpants and an oversized shirt. I walked sleepily through the halls, taking different turns until I found the dining room. 

"Ah, Fawn, come sit." Benedict beamed.

I sat where I sat yesterday, across from Theo. I held one knee up to my chest while I reached for some of the fruit salad. We all ate in silence for a minute or two.

"So, you two are..." Benedict trailed off.

"Good friends." We said at the same time. 

I smiled to Theo, he did the same. It made me happy that we were both on the same page, it made me happy knowing that after learning about Williams, he still stuck around. 

"I see. Now, let's talk a little." Benedict cleared his throat, "Fawn, please do not leave the manor unless you are with Theodore or I. There are protection wards covering the manor, Theodore with teach you about them tomorrow. He will train you and help you."
