Clare Mortez (Charlie Weasley)

Easter

The first term had flown by so quickly we were arriving at platform 9 and three quarters. Charlie and I were staying first week at his and second week Fawn was coming to mine. While waiting at the entrance for Percy I was chatting little Freddy. All of a sudden George was pulling on Fred's arm, both had fallen silent. I was confused than looked behind me. Of course, three 'popular' girls are coming though the wall, Ashley and her two barbies. Ugh, I should've guessed.

"Hey look at this, two losers from school". Said Ashley, gesturing towards Charlie and I.

"Ew look at her dress" said barbie one. I'm not wearing a dress.

"Her hair is so black and boring" said barbie number two. Do these girls need glasses, my hairs blonde?

"Girls I think we should teach her alesson" Ashley smirks. I didn't even do anything they tip water on my hair. Do they really think a bit of water will make me break down or something. I roll my eyes and walk towards the Weasley's car with the twins, the rest of the family was already there.

"Yeah, run away crying" said Ashley. I let out an exasperated sigh, yep they definitely need glasses.

Charlie laid out a picnic blanket on the grass, my heart fluttered. I hugged him "thank you for agreeing to go to the festival" I said.

"No problem" he said, hugging me back. I'd asked him to go as a random thought on the train.

We sat down on the mat as the music started. I leaned closer to Charlie.  I heard him mutter something but I couldn't make it out.

"What?" I ask.

"Nothing" he says, blushing. I lean my back against his chest, closing my eyes to listen to the music. After a couple of songs I heard him whisper. "Clare" "hmmm" I say, opening my eyes and looking up at him. Just them someone tripped knocking me over into him. The girl who had tripped, quickly ran away. I tried to push myself up but then realised my hand was on Charlie's chest. Before I could get up, Charlie grabbed my hand "wait" he whispered, looking at me. "I need to tell you something"

"What?" I ask as we get up. We were so close that I could count his eyelashes.

"I um... I'll just say it.... iLikeyou." Fireworks exploded in my chest

"Oh um.." Why am I stuttering like an idiot. I leant down and whispered in his ear "I like you two", the music fading from my hearing. I placed my hand on his cheek, leaned closer, and kissed him softly on the lips.

When we broke apart I put my head on his shoulder.

After the concert we walked back to the burrow, holding hands. Only letting go of each other when we reached my room I whispered goodnight, collapsed on my bed and feel into a dreamless sleep.

I heard giggling when I stirred the next morning. I sat up o reveal the twins.

"Mornin Clare"

"We made"

"You breakfast" the finished together smiling like idiots.

"Aww little freddy knows how to cook, and little George didn't burn the house down"

"We are not little" George huffed.

I scoffed down the pancakes and drank the juice. The juice had a peculiar taste kinda like..."BLABERING POTION. I can't believe you did that" I chased them down the stairs "how long does it last, does it wear off or just stop, why did you do that" we sprinted into the kitchen doing a circling around the table. Just then Charlie and mrs Weasley appeared. "Hi Charlie, morning mrs Weasley, Charlie your pretty but you need to wear a shirt, there's girls here. They gave me a blabbering potion" I point towards the twins. "Do you know where the antidote is because I don't. maybe you could make me one?" I head towards the cupboard but he pushes past and grabbed one.

"Here, but don't drink it untill Im Out of the room." He hands me a small blue bottle the runs from the room. I scull the small liquid and a few moments later I process what happened.

"Well that was embarrassing..."

"Mum were leaving" said Fred

"Bye"

"Let's go" I say linking arms with both twins. Charlie fallowing behind.

"We should get ice-cream"

"No lets get butter beer"

"I want to buy an owl" they look at me funny. "What? all you guys ever think about is food and I actually want an owl."

"I have an idea" started Charlie, I look at him expectantly " I didn't actually expect to get a word in, you've been arguing for ten minutes now" he looked surprised. "How about they buy for ice creams and butterbeers while we look for an owl and we all ,eat up afterwords outside eeylopes owl emporium to eat"

The twins were gone in a flash "well that worked" I say grinning walking towards the store entwine my fingers with his.

As we finished the meal I picked up a jett black owl with emeral eyes, it was the runt of the litter but was absolutely adorable and I loved him. The four of us caught the knight bus to just beyond the burrow. The twins run ahead. I kiss Charlie on the cheek.

"What was that for?" he asks, holding my hand as We walk down the hill.

I shrug smiling "your brothers were around all day"

Mrs Weasley was standing in the doorway, "oh good you back, lunch is on the table and" she pauses noticing our untwined hands "MERLINS BEARD, AUTHER. CHARLIES GOT A GIRLFRIEND!"
