November 12, 1995

Aquila stood in front of the mirror in her bathroom after a long day of classes. She stood holding the edges of the sink with her head hanging low in front of the mirror. She stared at her reflection, more specifically her lips. She took her hand off the sink and brought it up to her rosy pink lip, feeling the place where Fred placed his light pink ones. It's been over a week since it happened and she can't stop thinking about it. She didn't even like him. She didn't hate him, but she didn't like him. She is one of the only Slytherins who don't despise Gryffindors. She felt a regret that made her chest ache and made her struggle to breathe. But it wasn't the type of regret that makes her wish she didn't kiss him. She had no idea about how she felt about his lips on hers. She felt regret because she knows that that kiss happened for a reason, and she is scared of what that reason is. She left the bathroom, took out her black journal, and sat in her bed begging to write. 

Fred on the other hand was in the room of requirements with Harry Potter and his followers. The thoughts of Aquila were still on his head, haunting him. He wanted them to stop. He came to the conclusion that she isn't interested in him and that's why she just ran away after they kissed. He decided he just needed to move on. 'She's just a small crush to me, I'll get over it.', he told himself every day... but his heart said differently. His focus went to Harry as he started walking around the room explaining what's next. He started explaining about the Stunning spell and how it's really useful.   Ron and Hermione were about to perform the spell against each other. George looked at Fred and said, 

"one sickle." 

"you're on.", Fred responded as they observed Ron and Hermione. Ron and Hermione both got into their positions. All of a sudden Hermione fired. 

"Stupify!" Ron fell on his back about 3 meters away. Everyone laughed and Hermione had a d proud look on her face. After that everyone else started to practice the Stunning spell. After practice time was over Fred and George left the Room of Requirements to the Gryffindor Common room. Fred and George reached their common room and went up the stairs to their dorm. Fred threw himself on the bed and Geroge chuckled at his action. 

"Tired mate?", George teased.

"Extremely. Practicing spells takes lots of energy if you ask me.", Fred answered as he stretched his arms, back, and legs. Geroge laughed at his response and sat on his bed, which was next to Fred's. As Fred began to be lost in his thoughts George observed. He knew something was on his mind. 

"What's on your mind, Fred?", asked George while looking at Fred. Fred looked at George and sighed. 

"There's something I haven't told you. Before you get mad for not telling you, you have to know that I didn't tell you is because I haven't processed it yet.", Fred began to explain. George nodded at Fred in understanding. 

"I kissed Aquila Phoenix.", Fred finally said. George's eyes widened and a bright smile grew on his face. 

"You what?! I don't believe you, there's no fucking way she kissed you!", Fred smiled at George's reaction and nodded quickly.

 "Holy shit! Fred, how, how'd you do it?", George asked excitedly sitting up from his bed and walking to Fred. 

"By kissing her...", Fred responded to George's question in an obvious tone. George frowned at Fred.

"I meant how did it happen.", George cleared up. Fred explained how he and Aquila were dancing in the Halloween Ball and how he took her to the astronomy tower. He explained how they both took off their masks and saw each other, and how he just felt an impulse to kiss her. George was impressed. His twin brother kissed the Aquila Phoenix. He was kind of jealous since he also has a distant view crush on her, but it makes sense that Fred kissed her since he's the only one that has had actual interaction with her. He knew his brother had a more real crush on her. 

"Wow, mate. Have you talked to her since?", George asked. 

"No, she's been avoiding me. I've noticed.", Fred's smile disappeared as he looked down to his lap. George's smile disappeared to his words. He walked up to Fred and sat on his bed and put his arm around him. 

"Don't worry about it mate, she's probably just scared. She must like you if she kissed back.", George explained earning a small smile from Fred. The rest of the day, the twins hung out with the other Gryffindors in the Gryffindor common room.
