Silent Communication

George looked up to see Fred emerging from the bathroom, having

finished his shower. He toweled excess water off of his hair quickly, before

tossing the damp cloth down onto the bed beside George. Despite how hot the day

was, Fred always insisted on scalding hot showers, and the obtrusive heat of the

towel beside him caused George to frown. Annoyed by the offending dampness, he

threw the towel back towards the bathroom door, as Fred padded across the

bedroom to the dresser. Wearing only his boxers, Fred grabbed a pair of jeans

and pulled them on unceremoniously. He now rummaged about for a shirt that

wasn't too hot, but found none. He abandoned his search, realizing that it would

yield no result. He shoved the dresser drawer closed and tossed himself down on

the bed beside George.

They had shared this same bed for their entire life, and, despite the

fact that they were now teenagers, continued to do so. Partly, it was because no

one wanted to deal with transporting a bed from another room. Also, Fred and

George did not insist on anyone doing so. They often found comfort in each

other's arms, falling asleep with another warm body. Often, they would lay awake

talking. Not their usual, playful chatter, but serious issues which pressed

them. Somehow, they seemed to find it easier to be emotional in the dark. And on

days like this, sultry and still, they often refrained from talking altogether,

simply compelled to do nothing. Only to lay, half naked, on the bed, cooling

themselves through inactivity, with only the low hum of the fan to permeate the

room.

George observed his brother laying beside him, his eyes closed, in only

his jeans. Despite his hot shower just earlier, George decided that Fred did

appear marginally cooler than himself, and opted to remove his own shirt. He sat

up slowly, and peeled the offending garment from his sweat-slicked body, before

tossing it in the same general direction that he had tossed the towel only

moments before. He fell back onto the bed again, and sighed, marveling at how

much cooler he now felt.

George glanced over at Fred, who also appeared to have cooled down much

more. To a level of toleration, at least. George rolled onto his side, moving

his body casually next to Fred's, and scooted over to place his head against

Fred's chest, nestled in the curve made by Fred's chest and his outstretched

arm. Fred slid his free hand over and ran his fingers through George's hair.

Moments passed, as the laid there, content in the presence of each

other. Always, it had been like this. An unspoken bond, a wordless need for

mutual contact.

Fred felt that he had cooled considerably, and opened his eyes to gaze

out the window. George lifted his head and followed his gaze. Outside, dusk had

drifted away into the arms of night, leaving the tending of the world to the

half moon, whose light drifted in like a shimmering curtain. Fred shifted his

gaze again. George turned his head to look at his twin, seeing his face

half-illuminated, skin silver-pale, otherwise, his face completely shadowed. But

his eyes were lit silver.

George pulled himself out of Fred's embrace, sitting up. He slid off of

the bed to stand beside the window, gazing out briefly, before casting his gaze

on the box fan which whirred away atop the dresser. He reached over quickly and

shut it off, met with an immediate and overwhelming sound of nothingness. He

nearly winced at the all-encompassing silence, but found comfort in that he was

not alone. He looked over to Fred, who was now sitting up, gazing at him

questioningly. George looked out the window once again, the moon catching his

features and etching them into Fred's mind. A perfect reflection of himself

stood there. Or was he his brother's reflection instead? Was he standing beside

the window, and George sitting on the bed? George saw the shift in Fred's gaze

and turned to face him sharply. Fred nearly gasped. Looking at his twin, who

stood bathed in a shimmering curtain, Fred stared deep into George's illuminated

face. His eyes were as mirrors.

George looked down at his brother, seeming fragile under such

compromising light, and George smiled softly to himself, knowing full well that

he was one of the few in the world who would ever see Fred so stripped of his

defenses. Then his smile turned into a full grin, as he decided to take

advantage of this state of defenselessness between them. George pounced.
