We flew our brooms down to the snow covered ground. "That was so much fun!" I said. "Dude, you're a natural!" Lee exclaimed. "You HAVE to play Quidditch next year!" Harry said. "Okay!" I said excitedly. We all laughed.

"Well, I think I'm gonna head off to dinner" Lee said. "I think I will too, who else?" Ron asked. Harry and George decided they'd go along with them, leaving Fred and I alone in the snow.

I looked at Fred and he looked at me. We both had this look in our eyes. I quickly picked up some snow and formed it into a snowball. Fred did the same but I was faster. I threw it at him, hitting him square in the chest. I laughed, but my victory was short lived. He quickly came back with a snowball, hitting me in the shoulder.

"Heyyy!" I said laughing. We began to throw snowballs at each other until it turned into a full on snow fight, full of laughter and giggles.

"Ah! Fred no!" I yelped laughing. Fred tackled me into the snow, landing on top of me. "Em, you're covered in snow!" he said laughing, covering me in snow. "Freddy no that's cold!!" I said laughing.

I rolled over and was lying in the snow, right next to Fred. "Now I'm covered in snow... it's coldddd" I giggled. "Here." he said sitting up, I sat up too. He took off his scarf (the one in the pic) and draped it around your neck. He smiled sweetly. "Thank you Freddy" I smiled, my face turning pink from both the cold and me blushing.

I let out a high pitched sneeze, ruining the mood. "Bless you!" Fred laughed. "Thanks!" I sniffed. "We should probably go inside, dinner will be over soon and I don't want you to catch a cold." he said thoughtfully. I giggled, "Okie, and I'm getting hungry too" I said.

Fred and I walked through the snow back into the Hogwarts castle. We made it into the Great Hall, each table about two fifths of what's normally there. I spot George, Lee, Harry, and Ron. I run over to them and plop myself down next to Ron, Fred sitting next to me. I pile some food onto my plate and began to eat.

'Nice scarf Em" George said. "Wha~? Oh, yeah it's Fred's..." I said chuckling.

~ FRED'S P.O.V. ~

"Wha~? Oh, yeah it's Fred's..." Emily said, chuckling. George looked at me with a smirk. "She was cold George, what did you want me to do?" I said playfully.

George was about to say something but was cut off by another high pitched sneeze by Emily. "Heh, good thing you let her wear that then" Alex said laughing, walking up to the table, sitting across from Emily.

"Hey Alex!" Emily said smiling. Alex move a dirty-blonde wave out from in front of his face, only for it to fall back again. I glared accidentally. Without even thinking, I moved closer to Em.

Em looked over at me, "Everything okay?" she asked. I looked over and down at her, removing my focus from Alex. "Oh, what? Y-Yeah" I chuckled, honestly not knowing what's going on.

~ EMILY'S P.O.V. ~

Fred's been acting strange lately and I'm not sure why. I mean, I know him pretty well considering I live with the Weasley's and see Fred literally everyday, I can tell something was up.

I was going to ask but Alex said something before I could get a word out. "Pardon?" I asked, not knowing what he said. "I said, we should all head to bed, we're the last one's in here" Alex laughed. Lee looked around and laughed, "I guess you're right mate. Who's coming?" he asked.

I shoved the last of my food into my mouth. "I'm pretty exhausted" I laughed. "Same here" Fred agreed. Everyone got up and we headed back to the common room.

Sam, Hermione, and I went into the girl's dorm. Half asleep I put on my pajamas, along side my two friends. I put on some blue shorts with white planets on it, and a blue t-shirt with two white planets on it saying 'Give Me Space". I put my hair up in a messy bun and Sam put on her pjs as well as Hermione.

Hermione went to sleep pretty early, but Sam and I went back down into the common room

Hermione went to sleep pretty early, but Sam and I went back down into the common room. We saw Fred, George, Harry, and Ron down there. Fred was on the couch with a blanket and George was on the other couch with a blanket as well. Harry and Ron were on the floor, close to the fire place.

"Hey guys!" Sam said excitedly. She sat down on the couch with George, "Gimme some blanket" she laughed, taking half of George's blanket. George chuckled but he was willing to share. I sat down next to Freddy. "Wanna share?" he asked, lifting the blanket. I giggled and scooched closer to Fred, leaning against him.

"Someone's sleepy?" asked Harry. "Yeah..." Ron and I said at the same time, causing everyone to laugh. We all began to talk about anything and everything. "Have you ever had Butterbeer?" Ron asked, mostly directed to the Muggleborns in the group.

"What's Butterbeer?" I asked, Harry wondered the same thing. "Butterbeer is really good. It's all bubbly and you can put this cream stuff on the top. It's really good!" Ron explained. "Like... cream soda?" I asked. "Or a root beer float?" Harry chimed in.

"Cream... soda?" Fred asked. "Root beer float?" George questioned. "I think I heard dad talking about it once. Some sort of Muggle drink" Ron chuckled.

They continued on about different kinds of Muggle drinks and foods. I was way too tired to continue the conversation. Eventually their words became faded and I snuggled up to the warmth of Fred and soon fell asleep.

~ AUTHORS NOTE ~

So, my chapters are normally around 1,500 words but this is only about 1000. I FINALLY finished all of my exams, barely passing Bio Honors with an 80 haha. The math one I basically just guessed on. My average for my Math is a 100 but literally nothing we did in class was on the test so that's bogus. But I'm watching Harry Potter illegally right now so that's good :)

~ IMPORTANT ~

I had a little help with this one, with the idea of sharing a blanket with our beloved Freddy :) So thank you so much @EverLastingMelody for the help <3

If anyone has any suggestions for the story, let me know because this is toughhhhhh.

Also QUESTION, do you guys want me to focus on the story line of the books and movie? Or just focus on the relationship between the characters?

Thank you so much for reading!
