I finished my 5th year of hogwarts and Oliver finally won his Quidditch cup tittle. I'm know at the burrow hanging out until my uncle gets back from something. Ever since the night when Harry released Black I've been seeing Fred differently. I notice these little different details about him I've never noticed before. He has more freckles them George, he's slightly taller, and his eyes. His eyes have these little gold flacks in his blue eyes. But I can't think of him like that it'll make it weird. I scold my self.

"A.J. Dear come down here for a minute." Molly calls.

So I head down stairs to see what she wants. One the way down I trip on one of the stairs.

"Ahhhh." I say bracing myself for impact but it never came. I look up to see the one and only Fred Weasley.

"Well aren't  you just a clutz." He says smirking.

"Shut up." I say blushing slightly.

"Aw I'm just messing with you." He says helping me stand right. Our hands touch and I feel sparks. Fred looks at me intently. He starts to lean in and so do I.

"A.J. Get down here you have a visitor." Molly calls.

"Coming." I yell back. "Well I must get going." I say blushing and tucking a lose hair behind my ear.

"Yeah right okay." Fred says rubbing the back of his neck.

I enter the kitchen to see a tall redhead talking to Molly.

"Charlie?" I ask.

"Hey there shorty." He says turning around and opening his arms wide .

"Char!" I say running into his open arms.

"My haven't you gotten so big." He says ruffling my hair.

"Yeah I'm not so short anymore." I say sticking out my tongue. But in all honesty even if I'm 5'11 Charlie is 6'5 a good 6 inches taller then me and then bill is 6'6. Percy is 6'1 and The twins are 6'3 and Ron's an inch shorter then me. Ginny's a solid 5'5.

"In your dreams shorty." He says putting me in a head lock.

"Charlie!" Ginny squeals running into the kitchen.

"Hey Gin." He says hugging here.

"Tell us about the dragons." Ginny pleaded.

"He can over dinner." Molly says then she yells "Dinner come and get it."

Soon the twins, Percy , Ron, and Arthur file in and sit down. Arthur sits at the head of the table with Molly in his right and Percy  on his left. Next to Molly is Ron, then George and then Fred. Next to Percy was Charlie then me and then Ginny.

"Hey Charlie!" The twins and Ron say.

"Hey char. How've you been." Arthur asks.

"Fine dad. How about you."

"Good."

"So tells us about the dragons." George said.

"Yeah." Ginny adds.

"Well they're amazing. A green welsh dragon just hatched before i came." Charlie says his voice full excitement.

"Will you come with  us to the Quidditch World Cup?" Ron asks.

"Sorry kiddo. I'm just here to meet with Dumbledore. I have to leave tonight." Charlie says.

The rest of the dinner is eaten in silence but I occasionally look over to Fred and when he looks up I quickly look at my food. I still can't shake my feelings from earlier and I'm not sure how to deal with them.
