The Ugly One *Charlie Weasley*

Trust?

Charlie was still fuming at the dinner table that night after his encounter with Curtis. He had never gotten on or liked him and throw Saffron into the equation and he liked him even less.

He gripped his fork as he stabbed his food, shoving it into his mouth as he watched the door, waiting for Saffron to enter.

She soon did, and Charlie felt a little guilty about thinking that the excuse Curtis had given him was a lie. She looked exhausted, her hair pulled out of the bun at places and her face tired.

Saffron searched the room and Charlie met her eyes. He stood and walked over to where she was.

"I haven't washed yet, but I wanted to come see you," Saffron said the moment Charlie got to where she was.
"Let's go outside," Charlie nodded towards the door. Saffron nodded, leading them outside.

"Did you get my message?" Saffron asked as they walked in the cool evening breeze.
"Yeah. Thanks to Curtis," Charlie rolled his eyes.
"I'm sorry," Saffron said. "It was stupid of me to get him to deliver it to you. I just wanted you to know that I was not missing lunch with you on purpose."
"It's fine. He just wasn't the right choice is all," Charlie said.
"I know. I wasn't thinking at the time."
"It's fine," Charlie confirmed.

"Ok well, should we talk about the other night?" Saffron asked.
"Did you want to wash up first?"
"No. No more putting it off. I hate doing anything knowing that you're uset with me," Saffron sighed, walking a head a little and rubbing her eyes.
"I'm not upset with you."
"Then what are you? You don't seem very happy to see me."
"I am, I just worry about you," Charlie sighed.
"You worry about me? I'm in healing injuries all day whilst you are out hanging around Dragons. I should be the one who's worrying!"
"No I don't mean like that. I just don't trust other people around you."
"When you say people, you mean Curtis right?" Saffron said.
"Specifically, yes. But I do get worried when others are."
"You don't need to worry about Curtis. Seriously. All I do is heal him and have a small, polite situation with him. I'm not into him or anything."
"I know you're not. But when Curtis sets his sights upon something, he get's it. And I'm worried that you're what his sights are current;y set on."
"Well mine aren't. They are all settled on you. If Curtis wants me, I'm sorry but he isn't going to get me. I am serious when I say I am not interested in him in that way."
"I know you're not. But do you blame me for being worried?" Charlie asked.
"No, I don't. It's the same with me. You around Lenard, I don't know, gives me a weird feeling."
"And you don't need that," Charlie said.
"I know and I know I can trust you, can you trust me?" Saffron asked.
"it's not you I don't trust."
"That's not what I asked."
"Yes I can trust you."
"Then why did you get mad the other night? It didn't feel like your anger was just at Curtis."
"I was jealous," Charlie explained. "I was jealous that you got on well with him. Jealous that you knew about him, jealous that he had asked for you. Jealous that he was interested in you. And that you seemed interested in him."
"You could have just said. Charlie I don't know why you can't just tell me that. Communication remember?"
"I know."
"Do you? Because it feels like I say sorry an awful lot and you don't Charlie. It feels like it is always my fault."
"It's not. Ok, I'm sorry," Charlie rushed.
"Are you kidding me?"
"What?!"
"That was the most insincere apology that has ever come out of your mouth," Saffron said.
"What do you expect me to say? You say you always apologise. And then when I do you act like that."
"No Charlie. Just please can we stop? I don't want to do this. I am not mad with you, are you mad with me?"
"No."
"Good. Settled?"
"Yes," Charlie nodded.
"I trust you, you can trust me."
"Yes," Charlie agreed. "You won't talk to Curtis?"
"No promises there, but I won't make an effort to speak with him."
"Good."
"Besides, he's not my type," Saffron shrugged.
"What's your type then?" Charlie asked.
"Oh you know, blue eyes, red hair, good sized muscles, a gentleman. Oh you know Charlie Weasley?"
"I do know him," Charlie smirked.
"Him," Saffron nodded.
"Oh, I've got a lot of compition there," Charlie joked and Saffron nodded as he pressed a gentle kiss on her lips.

"Go back to dinner, I'm going to wash up," Saffron said pulling away.
"Ok, see you soon," Charlie nodded.

Saffron nodded walking off to her home. Inside, she quickly went to the bathroom and began to wash.

She knew she should feel ok, now that things between her and Charlie were resolved, but she couldn't help but still feel strange about the situation. She felt like Charlie still didn't believe that she wasn't interested in Curtis, and she didn't understand why he was so particular about Curtis talking to her in the first place. So many others sppoke to her and yet it was Curtis that twisted Charlie up so much.

She wanted to ask Charlie about that, but she was worried he wouldn't give her a full answer.

Charlie still felt strange about the situation as well. It didn't sit right with him either and he didn't know why.

"Resolved?" Dan asked him when he sat down.
"Yeah," Charlie nodded as he sat down and began eating again, this time enjoying the food.

He noticed Saffron enter the hall a few moments later, he froze when he saw Curtis greet her. He watched as she politely smiled, signalling to her friends before walking away, meeting Charlie's gaze and giving him a wave and smile, to which Charlie returned, before she sat down.

"Going to sit with her?" one of the guys, Adam, asked.
"Nah, she's ok," Charlie said before turning the conversation to the dragons.
