Filou

I groan loudly at the feeling of my muscles stretching and popping, today's practice was very brutal and tiring. It's mostly because we have a Quidditch match on Friday against Ravenclaw so the tension is on the rise at the moment. I go and get a glass of water and a cinnamon cookie, I take a bite and hum in delight at the taste as it crumbles in my mouth. I take a seat in front of the fire and look into the flames as I get lost in thought. A loud thumping noise is heard from upstairs that led to the staircase, I continue to look into the fire until I hear them at the end of the stairs.

"Go to bed George."

"Wrong twin." I look back to the staircase and sure enough it's Fred standing at the bottom. He yawns loudly and stretches widely flexing the muscles he's gained from Quidditch, I avert my gaze and cough awkwardly.

"So how are you and Liza?" He smiled at her name.

"We're good but we're not official yet, I wish we were though." I felt a huge pain erupt in my chest just between my ribs.

"S-so you like her?"

"Yeah, I like her a lot."

"So does she like you?"

"I hope so." I look around feeling my breath waver.

"What if she doesn't like you?"

"I don't know what would come after that to be honest." I feel his gaze on me and I stiffen.

"What do you want most right now?" Fred thinks about it for a long while then speaks while looking to the ceiling while sitting next to me.

"I want to feel loved by someone. But not like family love, more like a love you have to find." His eyes are glistening with emotions, it's beautiful but painful since they're not pointed at me.

"Who do you want that with Levi?" My chest jolts and my heart flutters at the question since I already know who I want that with, I clutch at my chest and look deeper into the fire.

"Levi? Who do you want?" He's sounding very curious now, I let out an awkward chuckle.

"I-it's no one really." I see him smile widely and he pokes my sides making me squeal.

"OH MY GOD STOP!" He pokes me again and says with a devilish smile.

"Cmon tell me or I won't stop." If only he knew what I would say.

"N-NEVER!" He just smirks then continues to tickle me.

"Come on Levina~ Tell meeee!" I push him off me so I can catch my breath and say with a laugh in my chest.

"No." Fred responds by tackling me and pinning me to the ground, I suddenly feel the closeness between us and I gulp loudly. Fred looks down at me with this look in his eyes that makes my insides stir in a frenzy of flips.

"Now I'm gonna ask one last time and if you don't answer you'll be living hell for the next week. Now, who is it that you want?" Something in me just snapped and I quickly flip us over so I'm straddling him, he lets out a grunt as his back makes contact with the ground. He looks up to me and his honey brown eyes widen at the sight of my bottle green ones, I smile down at him and grip his chin gently letting my thumb grace over his bottom lip and drag it down gently.

"What if I said I wanted that with you? What would you do?" His eyes are filled with many emotions, confusion being it's main one. I notice what I just said and I hold back the urge to scream and run away. I gently let go of his chin letting my thumb drag down his lip and say with a smile.

"Haha just kidding!" Fred's eyebrows furrow together and I just smile wider hoping he won't notice me trying not to break.

"Did you really think I'd say something as embarrassing as that? It's getting late though so I'm heading to bed goodnight Fred." Without a second breath I run up the spiral staircase and swan dive into my bed to snuggle with Ivy. Snuggles make everything better.
