"Fred." I said weakly as I practically fell into his arms.

He looked confused then focused his attention on the blood rolling off of my hand and onto the ground. "I think I'm losing a bit too much blood." I told him.

"You think? I'm taking you to Madame Pompfrey right now." He began dragging me towards the Hospital Wing.

"No." I fought against his arms, throwing myself backwards,"I won't let her get the satisfaction."

"Fine. But I will disinfect it the second we get in the common room. How does this small little cut make you stumble down the halls?"

"It's deep, like as if you stabbed me with a dagger. Look." I unwrapped the bandages to see how deep it got.

"Oh Merlin..." Fred took my hand and held it as if it was glass,"Well now you get princess treatment for the rest of the week."

He picked me up bridal style, not caring if he got blood on him. "One more detention actually. I made a deal." I told him.

He sighed and shook his head. I held my hand trying to stop the blood from getting on Fred. We were far from the common room still. Just then we heard swift footsteps. "Merlin's beard!" I whispered as the footsteps got louder.

"I knew I'd find you two over here. Hospital Wing. Now." I heard a familiar voice, had to have been Snape's.

I took out my wand with the hand that wasn't cut. "Lumos!" I cast the spell, light flooding the tip of my wand.

I was right in the person being Snape. "Why do you care so much? We are cleaning it at the common room." Fred sighed and began walking past him.

"Cleaning what?" He put his hand on Fred's shoulder, stopping him from walking any further.

"Fred!" I yelled.

"Oh no...I'm sorry." Fred whispered.

"Set her down." Snape said as he ignited a nearby lantern.

Fred sat me down against a wall and took a seat next to me, holding my uninjured hand. Snape knelt down infront of me and began unwrapping the bloody bandages. He quickly used a spell, getting rid of the blood. "I must not tell lies. Didn't know glass could carve words into your hand." His voice was icy.

"She told me she scraped her hand." Fred laughed,"What a nasty scrape, am I right?"

"You two are so cocky. I quite literally fell, that's all." I joked.

"Well if she can joke around, she must be feeling better." Snape then said a spell, getting rid of the deep words upon my hand.

"You're right! I feel better now. Thank you." I smiled and looked at my hand that no longer bone deep carvings.

Snape then taught me the spell to close up cuts and we were on our way back to the common room. "Fred! I can come to practice soon! Maybe even tomorrow night. I'm going to skip detention. I want to fly again. I want to be the captain." I walked to an archway, where the moon and stars were visible,"I wonder how Lupin is doing. Almost full moon."

"Tomorrow night. I've been studying moon cycles for you. I think my favorite is the waning cresent." I looked at Fred, his eyes lit up from the bright moon,"My least favorite is the new moon because that means we can't stare at the moon together."

I giggled at how sweet he was being. "I'm serious. I adore spending time with you. I despise not having classes with you. I want the entire world to know I fancy you. You're so much more than perfect. You're like my glue, you keep me together. You keep me humble and you keep me happy. When I have a bad day I think of you. You will really never understand how much I care for you. I love you, Y/n Black." He looked me in my eyes while saying his little speech, not stuttering once.
