Friendship on Fire | Fred & George Weasley

Ronnie's Bogart.

The snow is so beautiful, it falls from the sky like freshly torn pieces of parchment that glides its way gently down. It is so peaceful to watch, and it makes you forget about your troubles..for even that one small moment. The months dragged on at Hogwarts and it was almost Christmas time. I was informed I was top of the school in my marks in every subject. It doesn't feel like much of an accomplishment, given the crazy lady in pink who is ruling everything. I wanted to punch her, kick her..anything to make her realize the things she is trying to teach us are far too easy. There were two people keeping me sane..Fred and George.

Angelina, hasn't spoken a word to me since George and her broke up. It was very awkward being that she is my roommate. She never gives me evil looks, or says snide remarks..she just flat out ignores my existence. I wish that she would just realize that George and I are just very close friends..and nothing more. Although George doesn't seem to worry too much about their break up, he is the happy care free goofy boy I met over summer...And that might aggravate Angelina more.

Unfortunately for me, I have had to avoid my best friend.. Given our practises with Dumbledores army and her being in Umbridges band of misfits..it was not a good idea to hang around too much. It had been two months since starting up Dumbledores army, and everyone was doing so well. I was so proud at the effort all the students were putting in, and I was actually enjoying what we were doing. Everyone can now successfully stun and disarm their opponent. All the younger students were doing spells that older ones had mastered, and I felt so much better that if anything were to attack them..they could defend themselves.

Umbridge has now banned Hogsmeade visits, so Christmas shopping was out of the question. I would have to do it at diagon alley. I missed my sister and Remus so much, And I couldn't wait until Christmas vacation so I could see them. Today though I was growing increasingly worried...I couldn't find anyone..Harry, Hermione, Fred, George.. Nobody..It was like they were all gone, and no one knew where they went.

I was sitting in silence packing the last of my belongings..Angelina was doing the same, only muttering the occasional word to herself. Granted, Angelina and I were never the best of friends given our age difference and the fact that I was new, I still liked her and considered her my friend..and I hated she didnt want to talk to me.

"Angelina?" I called out as I packed the last few sweaters in my trunk. She stopped what she was doing, but she didn't turn around to face me. "Angelina..I don't understand why your mad at me.." I said as I walked to take a seat on the end of her bed. Finally she turned around to actually face me.. She had an unreadable look on her face, but took the seat next to me anyway.

"Im not mad at you" She told me and fondled with the end of her gryffindor blanket. "The why haven't you spoken to me in weeks?" I asked pulling my knees to my chest, I laid my head on the top of them, but kept my attention on her. "I'm sorry Ronnie..I was just...I don't even know" she said shaking her head but keeping her gaze to the floor. "Its ok Angelina...I know you were upset about George..I just wish you knew, you could tell me anything that is bothering you" I said and placed a hand on her shoulder. She gave me a small smile before pulling me into an awkward hug. Angelina was a tough girl, who never spoke of her feelings and definitely never hugged..

"Have you seen the weasleys today? I haven't seen anyone anywhere..and Fred wasn't in class" I asked when we pulled away. She just shook her head and sighed before tossing her wand in her trunk. "I wouldn't worry too much.." She said with a small smile. And just as she said that, I saw my sisters small brown owl pecking at the window beside my bed. I let Jinxy inside and removed the letter from her leg before releasing her back into the snowy air.

Ronnie,

Arthur Weasley has been attacked..Harry and the Weasleys are with snuffles. He will be ok though, so dont worry. I know you would be looking for Fred and George. Fred told me to tell you he misses you ;-) . Remus and I are coming to get you early, we will be waiting in Dumbledores office..although by the time you get this letter I will already be there..So come quickly! I miss you !
