Fred's POV:

My eyes fluttered open with the sunrise shining on my face. It's been so long since I've been able to sleep or wake up so peacefully. Normally, I either can't fall asleep due to George's loud ass snoring or I wake up with mum's early morning cleaning. My eyes started falling again due to the rare peacefulness around the house. Y/n started moving, making my eyes shoot up again and look at her. She was still sleeping; she looked so relaxed. The tension on her face from last night was gone as she smiles in her sleep. She's using me as a pillow, laying her head on my chest, and using my arm as support to not fall off the couch. My arm was starting to fall asleep and I slowly try moving my arm from under her. Slowly but surely I was able to get it off without waking her up.

As my eyes began to shut once again, I felt her starting to shiver. I didn't realize how chilly it was, early in the morning, because she was on top of me. As I'm grabbing the blanket to cover her again, George walks down the stairs and into the living room.

"Merlin Freddie, you're whipped." He whispered through a laugh. I explained to him everything that happened last night, leaving out the exact words she told her parents. Knowing she wouldn't appreciate me telling others about her rant. His eyes turned soft as he looks at Y/n while I finished talking, "You've got to tell her mate." I look at him in confusion, "Tell her what, exactly?" He looks me dead in the eyes with a, you know what I'm talking about-face. "Fred.." I raised my eyebrows, telling him to keep talking. He sighs in defeat, "As much as I love her, I'd never sleep with her on the same couch, more like ask her to, just because she was having a little breakdown." I look at him like he's crazy, "Are you serious? She has been through so much these past months, she just needed some comfort." I whisper yelled at him, getting a little pissed off.

The corners of his lip rise but he quickly changes to a serious face, "Cmon' Fred, sleeping with her on the same couch? That's a bit too much. I mean, she could've saved her parents if she just hadn't wandered off." At this point, I just wanted to jump at him. How could he be saying shit like that? "Okay first, shut the fuck up, she may be able to hear you, and second, what the fuck is wrong with you? Are you high or something? You know nothing that has happened was her fault, how could you be saying shit like that?!" Now, the grin wouldn't leave his face, this just pissed me off even more

"How are you finding any of this amusing?!" I practically yell. "hey... if everything okay?" I could feel Y/n mumbling into my chest. Forgetting George is in the room, I let my face heat up. "Yeah, everything's fine. Go back to sleep, it's early." My voice, a lot softer than before. She nods her head and I hear her breathing slowing down again. I look back up at George, raising his brows. "That's exactly what I was talking about." I sigh, knowing exactly what he's talking about.

I'm not even surprised he knows, he is my twin after all and besides Y/n, he's the person I spend most of my time with. "How long have you liked her?" I look down, feeling a bit embarrassed, "since year 6" His eyes widen and I interrupt him before he could even say anything. "I know, I know, I should've told her but then she got with Seamus and when they broke up, she was so upset. And then the whole war happened and the things with her parents and her house and.." I take a deep breath before I continue, "It'd be so selfish, I can't do that to her, not yet at least. She just needs someone right now." George nods his head, knowing not to continue talking about it.

He turns to go back upstairs as my attention turns back to Y/n and making sure she comfortable; she deserves it. As George gets to the start of the stairs, he turns back, "Fred, don't be too late. She's a beautiful, funny, smart girl and so many other guys want her out there. Someone else is bound to get her soon and the last thing I want to see is you getting upset because you waited too long." He says in a soft voice.

"Will do Georgie, will do." He nods his head, satisfied with my response, and walks back upstairs.

Again, I turn my attention back to Y/n. "I'll get you soon Y/n, don't you worry," I whisper to her before finally closing my eyes and going back to sleep.
