Grudges

Chapter 12

The twins took off as Skye chased after them a trail of blue glitter following her. She was to caught up in her thoughts to notice the second canon of glitter. This time it was a brilliant red. With another loud groan she picked up speed as the red haired boys ahead of her split up. Skye stopped at the crossway of the passage.

"Who is responsible for this?" Skye said impatiently as she looked from left to right.

"Fred, it was all Fred." George's voice echoed from the right.

"What don't blame me!" Fred's voice came from the left. Skye smiled then turned to the left. She knew they probably worked together but something told her to follow Fred.

"Fred I'm gonna slap you in the face with glitter once I catch you." Skye yelled but instead of anger she laughed as she talked. Finally the passage stopped and lead into a dark abandon classroom.

"Fred?" Skye asked as she nervously walked around the dark room. Skye could barely make out shadows of desks and chairs.

"Of all of the things we do eavesdropping is probably the worst." Fred's voice came from the front of the room. All the color drained from Skye's face realizing what he was saying. Of course he had to hear her conversation with Victoria.

"Fred I can't see anything where are you?" Skye's voice wavered a bit as darkness surrounded her. A rough hand gently caressed her face and she could feel the small distance between them.

"F-fred." Skye stuttered looking up to see a pair of brown eyes locking onto her blue ones.

"Hold on." Fred said taking his hand off her face and taking a couple steps back. A ball of yellow light shot into the air and danced around. Another ball of light split off of the yellow and one by one balls of light filled the room.

"It's so pretty. It looks like stars dancing around." Skye said in awe as she did a small twirl. She stopped and smiled at Fred, then looked down embarrassed.

"My lady would you care to dance with me under the stars." Fred asks holding out his hand. Skye giggled and took his hand as a blush dusted her cheeks. Fred pulled her close and rested a hand on her waist as the other held her small one. Skye could feel her heart beating so loudly she was sure he could hear it.

"There's no music. What are we dancing too?" Skye asked looking up at Fred whose hair shined brilliantly under the yellow lights. Fred smirked and started humming a song. Skye recognized immediately.

"I have died everyday waiting for you. Darling don't be afraid I have loved you for a thousand years." Skye sang with a large smile as Fred twirled her.

"I'll love you for a thousand more." Fred now joined in singing with her. As Fred sang the last line he dipped her making her giggle. Skye watched as Fred looked from her lips to her eyes. Skye bit her lip and as she looked into his eyes. Next thing she knew Fred leaned down placing his soft warm lips onto hers. Sparks flew as their lips moved together in perfect harmony. Fred's arm wrapped around her waist as the other had his hand tangled in her long black hair. Skye had one hand on his chest as another was on his cheek. Each kiss was soft and continued to develop into a more passionate kiss as it went on. Skye's hands ran along his chest and back as his held her close. Glitter was now on both of their faces and clothing as they continued to kiss. It was a perfect fairy tail moment as each light above the two fizzled out except the one above them.

They both broke apart for air both had a smile on their faces as they looked into eachothers eyes.

"Hi." Skye giggled her hand still on his chest.

"Hello beautiful." Fred said his hand resting on her cheek. Skye leaned into his hand and closed her eyes.

"I have a question to ask." Fred said his soft lips brushing against hers. "Will you be my girlfriend?" He asked his warm breath against her ear.

"Is that even a question anymore?" Skye pulled him down into another kiss. Glitter now all over both of them.

"Well that took forever." George was leaning against the doorway with a big grin on his face.

Victoria sighed as she watched Skye walk away from her. Turning back to Draco with a disapproving look.

"So what's this date you guys are going on?" Draco's voice was soft as he spoke, as it always was with her, but at the same time it had a hard undertone. Almost like he was unhappy with something.

"She wants me to go on a double date with her and she wants me to go with...someone."

"And this someone is?" Victoria groaned and sat on the ground, staring into the darkness of the Forbidden Forest.

"Harry Potter."

"Why him?"

"Because she thinks I like him."

"And do you?"

"No! I really don't, but she wants me to be with someone she can approve of, which is very little guys."

"And of course the chosen one is the one she chooses." Draco's voice was bitter as he spoke, taking a careful seat next to her on the ground.

"It's not her choice though." Victoria couldn't help but drop hints at him "Everything is my choice." A sudden surge of determination went through her and she stood, facing the Forbidden Forest. "And right now i'm going to break some damn rules." She sent a charming smile down to Draco and offered him her hand "Come with me."

He hesitated, his usually steely eyes looked scared. "Fine. But only because if someone doesn't come with you you're probably going to get killed." He took her hand and she pulled him up.

Victoria took her wand a casted a Lumos spell, with the light surrounding them they ventured into the forest. A shadow of a couple, holding hands, casted behind them.
