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"
