I like him.

No, I love him.

Every time I see him my heart beats that little bit louder,

That little bit harder.

I stare at him, he notices, our eyes lock,

But nothing happens.

He looks away to laugh with his brother

I feel a stab of disappointment that he takes no notice of me.

He is a joker,

He pulls pranks,

Nothing too harmful though,

He puts a smile on most people's faces.

I love him for that.

He can be very loving, very kind.

Oh dear, I have been staring too long.

He's noticed again.

This is a little embarrassing,

He is walking over,

He must be coming to confront me.

My eyes are darting around, desperately looking for an escape route,

I spot an opening in the crowd and make my way for it, not looking back.

I feel someone grasp my arm.

The person spins me round so I am facing them.

He has a faint look of confusion and hurt on his face.

"Why'd you run away?" He asks in a small voice.

I stare at him for a second.

He smiles again "You know I caught you staring right?"

I stutter for a moment.

"I believe you owe me something."

"What?" I ask bluntly, trying not to do blunder.

"You owe me something, you know, for staring"

I look at him.

"What do you want?" I ask, nerves creeping through my body.

"I have something in mind" He mummers and leans in closer.

"What's that?" I whisper, barely able to breathe at the proximity of our faces.

He grins and leans in so our noses are touching; waiting to see if this is what I want.

I am bewildered for a moment, to dazed to close the final distance, when he starts to pull away a wounded expression on his face.

I cannot bear to see that look on his face, nor to have him pull away after being so close.

I quickly grab his head, replacing the hurt look for an astonished one, and kiss him deeply.

I move my lips against his but stop, disappointed to find that his lips aren't moving with mine.

I started to pull back my face flushed with embarrassment.

Suddenly I feel his lip crash against mine and I whimper into his mouth as I feel him nibble on my bottom lip.

After what seems like a timeless moment of perpetuity we pulled apart, into the real world breathing heavily.

"Kyra Jones..."

"Yes Fred Weasley."

"I think I'm in love with you"

"Oh"

"Oh?"

"I think I love you too Fred, forever and always"
