Friendship on Fire | Fred & George Weasley

Two Brothers...

In all actuality I have one more year before I am a legal adult int he wizarding world, But I feel as if I have grown up a lot quicker than I should have. I am sixteen years old and have been through numerous deaths, physical brutality and heartbreak. And since I am me, I know in my heart that worse things are to come. At graduation I made a silent vow that until I returned to Hogwarts I would not shed one single tear. I would not live in the horrors of my past, I would just move forward. And that was exactly what today would in-tale...

Graduation was three days ago and my sister, Remus and I were going to the Weasleys for a small celebration with just the family...I invited Aimee but I haven't heard from her since graduation. My sister hasn't stopped bragging about me graduation since it happened and she tells even the most random people we see on the streets. Muggles have always thought she was crazy but she only added on the their insane thoughts about her.

"Ronnie, hun are you ready to go?" My sister called from outside of the bathroom as I was finishing brushing my teeth. I grumbled a response before wiping my face and exiting the bathroom. She smiled and ruffled my hair before Remus joined her side and we apperated into an open field. But nerves were suddenly overtaken me as the thought of seeing Fred for the first time in months left me breathless.

We walked for a few minutes before we landed upon a very tall crooked looking house that appeared to have numerous floors added to it over time. But all in all it was quite lovely. "Ronnie!" I heard someone shout and Ginny soon had her arms wrapped around me. I chuckled and hugged her bacj tightly before puling away. It was funny since we just saw each other three days ago. But i loved Ginny and she was one of my best friends. "missed me already huh?" I asked with a smile. "Well of course!" She said bumping her hip to mine. I saw Remus and Nymph had already gone inside.

"Gin, Is Fred here?" I asked quietly before we went through the door. She gave me a sad smile before nodding and pushing me through the front door. I was greeted with a banner that said Congratulations Ronnie! In bold purple letters and masses amount of food down a long table. The burrow as it was called, was very homey with almost every square inch of wall covered in homemade pictures or portraits of family members.

I saw Mr. and Mrs. Weasley with their arms around each other next to remus and my sister. Ginny had ran off inside and was chatting with Ron. And Fred and George were glaring daggers at each other across one another at the table. I smiled at everyone before i was enveloped in one of Mrs Weasley's infamous hugs that knocked the wind out of me. "Oh were all so proud of you Ronnie! You are all like family to us" She said and patted my cheeks and looked past me to Remus and My sister who were quietly talking together.

George noticed me and lept out of his chair before tackling me to the ground. You would think I had been away for five years the way everyone acted, but having a family that was there to welcome me home made me smile beyond words. "Geeze George, trying to kill me" I groaned as the six foot tall red head landed on my stomach. He laughed before pulling me up by the waist and hugging me. I saw Fred glaring even harder than before and soon marched over to George and I.

"Well if it isn't the little liar!" Fred sneered as we was inches from the two of us. The whole room then became so quiet you could hear a pin drop. I felt George's hold around my waist tighten as his twin brother was giving is both looks that could kill. "Fred, what are you talking about?" I asked quietly as not rile him up any more.

"You come up with some bogus excuse when we break up about being raped and attacked and here you are cuddling up to my brother!" he yelled and caused the breath to catch in my throat. I could not believe had just shouted that to everyone in the room and the worst was that he didn't even believe me. "FRED WEASLEY!" I heard Mrs.Weasley yell and Fred was punched my someone I didn't expect....My sister.

"Sorry Molly" Nymph said as she looked at the now bleeding boy on the ground. "I would have don't that myself "Mrs.Weasley said and patted Nymph on the shoulder. I swore to myself I wouldn't cry this summer, and I repeated that over an over in my head as not to let Fred get to me. I just was literally in shock that he just said what he did.

"Do you have any idea how hurt Ronnie is? Do you know that I had to watch that putrid boy take advantage of my baby sister and her cry out for help! I had to watch the memory of her being attacked and you dare say that to her!" Nymph screamed at him only inches from his face and I could see all eyes move to me at that moment. Ginny looked furious for what her brother said, as she was the only Weasley that knew what happened to me. Remus looked from my eyes to the ground, And Mrs.Weasley looked to me with tears in her eyes. I didn't dare look to George who was standing beside me as I could surely see anger and sympathy.

"I will never forgive you Fred Weasley" I whispered and ran out of the room and up the many flights of stairs. I ran into a random door not knowing where I was going and it sadly for me was Fred and George's room. Anyone that knew the twins would know this was their room, as there were boxes upon boxes of the bright orange boxes that held their joke products. There was mess and clothes thrown all over the floor and Gryffindor colored walls. I sat down on one of the beds and saw a picture on the nightstand in between the beds that caught my eye. It was one of the three of us, before Umbridge became unbearable. I saw sitting between Fred's legs and George had his head on my lap, and we were laughing in the picture about something im sure one of them said. Those days were simple, just the three of us cracking jokes and having fun....but I doubt we would be anything like that again...

I closed my eyes and took a deep breath as I kept the tears that were threatening to fall in my eyes. When I opened them I gasped as  figure was standing in front of me. "You scared me George" I whispered as he sat down on the bed beside me. He just reached over and took my hand in his before playing with my fingers. "Why didn't you tell me" He asked softly. I looked over to see George had tears brimming in his eyes and I looked away quickly before I did the same.

"I didn't tell anyone Georgie" I said and laced our fingers together. " You couldn't have done anything...and I was..." I said trailing off, and I felt his fingers gently move my face to look up into his soft brown eyes. He held a look of absolute sadness that almost broke my heart. "You were what?" he whispered.

"Ashamed...and just so angry at everything" I told him and felt him brush a few pieces of hair behind my ear that had fallen from my ponytail. "I lost so much in two years...I felt like the world was punishing me or something. I just kept loosing everything!" I cried out and George wrapped his arms tightly around my small body. "Everything is ok now Ronnie...your safe with me" He whispered in my ear in such a manner it made me believe him. "I promise you I will protect you Ronnie...I cant change what happened, but I can change what will, and I will make you smile that smile I love." He said and brushed his fingers against my cheek.

His fingers grazed the bottom of my jaw and found their way to my lips. I shivered as he ever so slightly moved this thumb over my bottom lip. "George..." I whispered before George quickly replaced his fingers with his lips. I gasped as I realized that George Weasley, the boy who always made me laugh, my best friend, and my ex-boyfriends twin brother was now kissing me.

But I felt something deep inside me arise, and I kissed him back. He kissed me with such an intensity it made me loose my breath and before I knew it he was lying on top of me on what I was hoping was not his brothers bed. I felt the same feeling that I did when I would kiss Fred, Only George kissed me hungry and passionately. Where his brother was soft and gentle.

I moaned into his mouth and found myself completely lost to the world around me. George had his fingers entangled in my hair and I gently grazed my fingers over his back. He pulled away slowly and kissed along my jaw line and lightly licked my earlobe causing shivers to go down my spine. "George" I said and pushed him off of me as I saw that Fred was standing in the door way, his eyes full of regret and anger. Fred only looked right past me to glare at his brother. George did something I wish he didn't, and he kissed me right in front of him. I kept my eyes to Fred, who looked like his head was about to explode.

"you are the biggest idiot I have ever known.." George said as he got off of the bed and shoved his twin out of the room and slamming the door. I felt my lips that were slightly swollen from my kiss with George and looked outside the window beside me to only think that this was going to be one hell of a summer....
