Not your girl ( Fred Weasley x Reader )

Chapter 18

Fred's POV:
Night of Yule Ball:

I clear my throat and wiggle my arms about prepared to knock on y/n's door and when I open it I'm speechless.

Thin crossed straps on the back of her dress and the material is hugging her petite figure in all the right places, I scan her from head to toe and back up again.

Her makeup is natural but beautiful nonetheless, with her long lashes curled with mascara and her lips covered in shiny clear gloss and her hair, the curls in her hair that I count when she's sleeping are partly down with a sparkly clip in the side. She looks like a princess.

" I know, I told Katie I wasn't sure but-" she says looking at herself with self doubt when I don't say anything.

" you look breathtaking" I tell her.

She looks at me like she can't believe the words I just said before smiling at the ground, I hold out my arm for her to take it as she links with me.

Y/n's POV:

When Fred and I walk into the Yule Ball I'm amazed by all the decorations and stop to stare that Fred has to nudge me to walk.

" wow" I say admiring the beauty of the winter set up.

We walk over to where George and his date are standing, Lee is with Angelina and we stand with them until the triwizard champions are announced to dance.

" y/n you look stunning!" Angelina exclaims to me.

" your makeup is flawless, I'm jealous!" I say to her as I look at her eyeshadow, she's wearing a simple dress but it suits her.

" where did yous find heels like that?" George's date joins in as she shows off her small flats.

The boys all look bored as us girls giggle and compliment each other when the triwizard champions and their dates walk arm in arm with each other as we all watch them gracefully begin to dance.

Cho is with Cedric and it must remind Fred to ask about what happened at Hogsmeade because he brings it up and when he see's Cedric walk out he pulls me closer to him.

" you never told me what happened" he leans in whispering to me.

" you were right" I say and he's fast to twist his head at me.

" what?" He asks shocked and slightly upset.

" he wanted to get back with you?" He says and I look up at him to see him looking at me with puppy eyes.

" yeah, he said that he would wait until we breakup if it means he has a chance" I tell him.

Everyone starts joining in on the dance floor slow dancing with their partners elegantly when me and Fred join in too.

" oh... " he says then he clears his throat.

" he's going to be happy when we breakup tomorrow then" he says neutral like he doesn't sound happy with it.

" he won't, I told him no" I say and his eyes look at me like he's unsure if he heard me right.

" you did?" He says.

I nod and he smiles as his good mood suddenly comes back to him.

Without warning the song skips to upbeat and loud rock as everyone takes their hands off their partners, I laugh as Fred dances terribly and flicks his hair about and I move in beat to the music. He twirls me around as join in with George and Lee who seem to be in sweats already from jumping and awful foot work.

A few hours later, I find myself out of breath and I tell Fred I'm taking a break who doesn't care and continues twirling and discoing about.

I stand near the drinks and take a drink of fruit juice when I bump into someone.
