Hermione's POV

FLASHBACK
Fred and I have been dating for about a month know and all has gone as planned. Neither of us have told anyone [but George of course] that we are dating. Although I have nearly let it slip to Ginny once or twice.

She seems very suspicious of me because apparently I've been happier and not stressed out. I believe her because I feel happier. Fred has a way of bringing up my spirits.

Tonight is actually going to be our first date. We haven't had any other Chances because I have been so busy with home work.

I'm currently applying light makeup, cover up, blush, lip gloss and nude eye shadow. I look at myself in the mirror. I'm wearing a white knit sweater, a large brown coat, black tights, high brown boots and a bag that goes over my body. My hair is down and over my shoulders. I smile at myself and leave the dormitory bathroom. I walk to the common room where luckily Ron and Harry aren't. Ginny though is, and she comes up to me.

"Where are you going?" She asks.
"Um, I'm going to hang out with Fred, George and Lee." I say. Lee also knows about Fred and our relationship because George 'let it slip'. In his defence, he could help make this less obvious. I was going to go down to the forest with Fred, George and Lee so that we looked like a group instead of just Fred and I.

"Okay..." She says suspiciously and I don't think she believes me. But that's okay. Soon enough, Fred, Lee and George come down the stairs. Fred is wearing a green sweater, and black pants, covered with a jacket. George has the same thing except he is wearing an orange sweater. Lee has a black jacket on with jeans.

"Hey 'Mione." Fred, George and Lee say together.

"Hey guys, byeGinny." I say and she waves and we leave the common room. "I think she suspects something." I tell them and they reply with a shrug.

"So, how are you 'Mione?" Fred asks and comes next to me. I blush a little and find my voice.

"I'm great, and yourself?"

"Brilliant. You look beautiful by the way."

"Thanks. You look handsome." I tell him and he chuckles. "So what is it we'll be doing?" I ask hopefully but he just shakes his head.

"That's for me to know and you to find out." He says and I frown. "Don't worry, you'll find out soon enough." I smile as I think about where we could be going in the snow. We exit Hogwarts and walk along the snowy grounds. It looks as though e may be heading to the black lake. Then I think I realised where we are going.

We get down to the frozen over lake and I smile.

I was right.

We are going to ice skate.

Fred smiles at me and says "I was thinking we could go ice skating." He says and I smile.

"That sounds great." I say and smile and take his hand. He squeezes mine and we continue to walk down to the lake. Once we get there, we sit down by it, on the damp grass. I set my back down on the side.

"So I learned this spell that can give you blades on the bottom of your shoe." He says and clears his throat. "Acramandi." He says and suddenly, metal blades appear on the bottom
Of my boots, then on his. He gets up And grabs my hand, helping me up.

"Oh, Merlin." I say timidly. We get into the ice and I squeal a little as we slide. He chuckles at me and we begin to move slowly.

"We'll start at a very slow speed and then we can go faster if you feel up to it." He said carefully and I nod in agreement.

We begin to skate and I laugh as we go faster. "See, you got it!" He says and I laugh some more.

"Yeah, it's not so hard-" but I'm cut off because I slip and fall right onto Fred. "I'm sorry." I say and try to get up but he grabs my hand.
