the boy I never knew | Fred Weasley ff

6

Today had been super stressful, I almost fell asleep in one of my classes, they had been super boring. Snape demanded us to write a text about a potion, so everyone was quite and because of that it would have been great for sleeping.

So I've been super happy after my last class endet and I was finished for today.

My eyes inspected the Great Hall- especially the faces. Most students looked hella tired and only a few people were talking to each other. Must have been a stressful day for everyone.
My eyes stopped at the Gryffindor table, looking for my favourite twins. When I spotted their conspicuous red hair, my lips formed a little smile. Fred seemed to search for me too, because his eyes were scanning the Slytherin table. As he found me, he started smiling too.

I exclaimed his face details, when Fred stared searching for something in his pocket. Once he found what he was looking for, he threw a magical paper plane in my direction. The plane knew were to go, I reached out my hands ans after a few seconds it landed on them. Unfortunately the other Slytherins noticed the paper plane and turned their attention on me. Great.
Even though I unfolded the paper and searched for the message.

staircase near the Gryffindor common room.
Meet me at 10pm
Fred

what was he planning?
Confusion appeared on my face, when I slowly looked up and saw Fred still looking at me. When his eyes met mine, he started winking.

He faced George and and left me in confusion.
They both avoided my look and just started a conversation without turning back to me. Sometimes I would prefer eating meals with other houses, because in situations like this, there's no other option than accepting what they did.

"Uhh Haven" my best friend remarked, pricking me with her elbow. Once this happened, I was back in reality and facing the new 'problem' called my curious best friend,

"Ouch Crell" I growled. I knew what she wanted to know. She saw me with Fred quite often, so it's plausible that she's confused. But to be honest- I was the one who's even more confused.

"You and George Weasley?" My best friend asked, raising her brow.

"It's Fred. George is the other one-" I explained, noticing I obviously told her.

I saw her expression and knew what was coming. Not now Crell..
I rapidly covered her mouth with my hands and stopped her from screaming. I didn't want everyone to know. Don't get me wrong- I am definitely not ashamed, it's just that I've always tried to avoid rumours, so I don't want them now either.

„I'll explain it to you later!" I blurted, before she could free herself and start shouting. Crell is that type of person.

I tried avoiding her piercing looks, but in my head I tried planning the whole conversation. Not the best combination I guess. Crell is my best friend, I know she would understand my situation, but sometimes she's very impulsive, so there's no time for me to explain everything.
When I finished eating my breakfast, Crell literally grabbed my hand and pulled me to the exit.

My eyes fell on Fred, who exclaimed the scenario in front of him with a knowing smile on his lips. I waved him ‚goodbye' and formed a smile on my plumb lips.

„I need to know everything Haven!" she said, almost screaming like a little girl.
„You are dating one of the twins, I can't believe it"

„I am not dating him" I tried to tell her, but she interrupted me before I could say anything else.

„The way you look at each other is telling me that you, Haven Mcklen are lying" she teased, when we were entering the common room.

I closed the door of our  room and locked  it with a spell. „Colloportus"
„Sit down" I demanded, pointing at her  bed.
Sometimes I can be quite.. different.

.. and them Fred gave me this letter, telling me to meet him at night. Which is too confusing.." I finished my complete explanation about Fred and me.

Crell calmed down and stopped acting like a crazy teenager. „Do you think you are falling for him?" she asked calmly, exclaiming my face.

„I think I already did.." I admitted almost whispering. „He's just so kind and I feel-"

„You don't need to explain yourself, Haven. I'm not judging you. I'm fine with you falling for a boy, if he's treating you deserve to, I am happy" Crell confessed. Putting her hand on my shoulder and letting her lips form a little grin.

„I love you Crell" I mumbled, pulling her close to hug her.

After a few minutes she pushed me away from her and formed a smile on her red lips.
"Lets get you ready for your meeting" she said winking.

"It's nothing special Crell-" I commented, but the girl looked at me with a raised brow- I knew that she couldn't be stopped.

"You look amazing!" Crell giggled, pushing me in front of the mirror.
I exclaimed the little bit of make up on my face, admitting that I looked better than expected.
The tight turtleneck formed my body and emphasised my breast. My blond hair was in a ponytail, so my face was in focus.

"You should hurry up, young lady. It's almost 10"

Fuck. I grabbed my coat, while opening the door, "alohomora" and rushed out of the room "thank you dear" shouted in goodbye.

"No problem Haven! You look awesome" I heard her response in a quiet tone, almost running trough the corridors.

When I arrived near the Gryffindor common room, I saw both of the twins leaning against a wall.

"I didn't mean to be late" I forewarned, "sorry"

"No problem- Haven." Fred said, going near me to hug me as a greeting.
He leaned down while putting his arms around me, whispering "you look- great" in my ear.
Again the familiar butterflies came back to life.

"Thanks" I mumbled in reply, feeling the words get stuck in my throat.
