Forever, my love

6. Friends

• Lilac's POV •

The next week went by in a blur, i had barely spoken to Goyle or George and my mum was acting as weird as ever. It looked like she hadn't slept in days.

Before i knew, It's 10:30am on Sunday morning and i've been laying in bed watching the birds chirp outside my windows for about an hour now.

I figured i'd just stay in bed all day, but i needed to distract myself. i ran downstairs and fed Felix, before quickly walking outside to check the weather.

The sun filled the sky and with the sound of birds chirping and voices of people talking in my street. It was a beautiful day outside.

I grabbed an apple from the table and quickly ate then hopped in the shower. After my shower i put on denim shorts and a oversized t shirt, i walked into my room and grabbed my sneakers.

As i was about to leave the house i saw my mum in the kitchen.

"I'm going out." I say as i open the door.

"With who." She replies.

"By myself, i just need to take a walk" I say.

"Okay be safe." she says, barely making eye contact with me.

The thought of her almost spilling her drink when i said Fred's name kept replaying over and over again in my head.

"Hey mum i was just wondering, you know the other day when i said i was partnered with Fred Weasley and you just cut the conversation sort, what was that about?" I say, determined to find a answer.

"I'm sorry? honey you know i'm old i forget these things." She says still not making eye contact with me.

"Okay then, bye." I say, as i slam the door shut.

She is definitely hiding something from me, there is nothing wrong with the Weasleys!

I walk down to Hogsmeade and look around. It was such a beautiful place. I walk over to honeydukes and enter, the place was massive with an insane amount of sweets and chocolates. I love it.

I walk around the shop and pick up a few things to try: Exploding bonbons, Chocolate frogs and a Cauldron cake.

As i was leaving Honeydukes, i found a empty table i walked over to sit down when i felt a tap on my shoulder.

I turn around and see Fred towering over me.

"Well hello darling" Fred said looking down at me.

"Hello Fred" I reply.

"I'm not Fred, I'm George!" He says as he tries not to laugh.

"Very funny Fred, but i can actually tell the difference between you and George" I say while crossing my arms.

"Very sassy indeed, alright you got me." Fred laughs.

"What are you doing here?" I asked curiously.

"Just went to Honeydukes." He says showing me his bag.

"I guess we had the same idea." i laughed as i showed him my bag.

"What do you have planned for the rest of your very busy day?" Fred asked.

"I was just gonna go home or maybe take a walk." I say.

"Come with me" Fred said softly tugging me along with him before i could even say anything.

We had been walking for about 20 minutes and all i could think was, where the hell was this guy taking me.
