Why don't you Stay? (Sequel to Kiss me if I'm wrong Fred Weasley Love Story)

Chapter 23 ~ He's my boyfriend!

Song for this chapter is Richard Marx ~ Right here waiting

*Kiara's POV*

"I've got some food and water for the prisoner"

I say sternly to Wormtail, who is cowering in front of an iron gate that leads down some stairs to another set of iron gates that lead down under the house to the dungeon.

"The dark lord told me not to let anyone interact with the prisoner-"

"-I don't give a flying fuck what the dark lord said, so move"

And just like that he does. Without even a single question. I walk past him swiftly, making my way through the first gate, down the old stone steps and in through the next gate.

The sound of rusty old metal and joints grinding together fills my ears as I open the gate, I see George sat slump against the wall on the far side, one leg outstretched, the other holding his left arm up, resting on his knee.

He lifts his head slowly, giving me an evil look, but his eyes soften when he see's it's me.

I close the gate behind me and walk over to George, offering him some bread and water.

''Here''

I say softly to him, he reaches out his arms, straining his shoulders as if his hands were weighed down.

''Thanks''

I reach my right arm over to my left shoulder and move my curly, lilac hair over to my right shoulder and sit down in front of George, crossing my legs and feeling the cold stone floor under my skin.

''George? I'm really sorry''

"For what?''

He replies with a mouth full of bread. I look at him confused, I don't know if he's testing me, about to give me a lecture, or if he's being genuinely serious?

''Well, It's basically my fault you're in here. They thought you were Fred, they wanted to get to me. If me and Fred had never met we wouldn't be in this mess, you wouldn't be here-''

''-No, stop right there''

George says softly, cutting me off from rambling on. I can feel tears starting to form in my eyes, I try and fight them back, I swallow hard, trying to push down the lump in my throat.

''-I may not have been here now, but whatever's going to happen now, will still have happened whether you and Fred met or not, you just would have had to face them alone. But now, you don't. Whether the rest of us get dragged into this as well, it doesn't matter, because we're in this together now. Hey-''

George says, reaching out his hand and cupping my chin in his palm, encouraging my face to align with his. Staring into his eyes somehow makes a tear escape my eye and trickle down my rosy cheeks, and splashing onto the floor.

''-chin up Frenchie''

And just like that, all the tears just flow so fast like a waterfall down my cheeks, I can't stop them. George holds out his left am, encouraging my to sit next to him. I move so I'm next to his side, he wraps his arms around me, I bury my face in his shoulder and wrap my arms around his torso, weeping softly into his shoulder.

*Fred's POV*

It's been a day and I'm missing Kiara and George like mad. I think I might actually go insane.

I haven't left my room, I think maybe I should go out and get some fresh air. But where to go?

I know, I'll go back to the place where me a Kiara spent most of our time. The old oak tree next to the black lake.

"Mum, I'm just going back to mine a moment"

I don't wait for mums reply, I just run out the front door and apperate to the black lake.

As I land I hear a startled noise coming from another person. It's McGonagall

"Oh, Mr Weasley, what are you doing here? Not here to cause more trouble are you?"

She peers at me over her glasses that sit on the tip of her nose. I can't help but laugh a little, but it doesn't last long.

"No"

McGonagall looks at me with slight sympathy. She can see straight through my lies.

She walks over to me and gently places her left hand on my right shoulder, giving me a loving look only a mother could give.

"I know what happened, you need to give her some time"

I haven't even got the energy to question how she knows. But I suppose, McGonagall and Dumbledore are pretty close.

"I just, I love her, I just don't know if I trust her"

"Well, I can understand that. You shouldn't give up hope dear, she knows what she's doing"

***

*Kiara's POV*

I have no idea what I'm doing.

How the bloody hell am I meant to overthrow one of the most powerful wizards that ever lived?! This is hopeless.

I should probably get up and get dressed. After I spoke to George, I went up to bed and just lead there, lifeless, until I fell asleep.

There's a light knock at the door.

"What?"

I say, straining my voice, like it took all my effort to say that one word.

No one answers, but the door opens slowly, and a small blonde girl steps into my room.

It's Paige.

"I heard you talking to my Boyfriend"

Urm, what? Her boyfriend. So she's dating Wormtail?

"Your boyfriend?-"

"Fred is my boyfriend! He doesn't want you, he wants me! He said so himself"

If this girl was my age or older I would probably knock her out.

"What are you like 12? He's not your boyfriend"

"Yes. He. Is!"

I roll my eyes dramatically to the ceiling, jumping up off my bed and walking towards the cupboard to get dressed.

Paige glares at me as I walk past, she grabs my arms and throws me against the wall, pinning my shoulders against the wall.

"He's my boyfriend, and you had better stay well away from him"

My anger burns inside me and I can't contain myself anymore, I push Paige off of me and grab her shoulders, pushing her up against the wall.

"If you want him that badly, then you'll have to fight me first. You'll have to make sure that if I'm down I don't get back up again"

"Don't worry, I will!"
