A/N: This is a little one-shot called Don't Let Go! It's sort of set to "Sing" by Travis, but if you don't have that song, don't worry. Just play a slow acoustic song, or even just read it without music.
Hand me a comment if you like it, or even if you don't, but please don't be too mean.
Okay, so here it is!
Don't Let Go! Set: Yule Ball.
The first thing Fred noticed was that Angelina was crying.
The second thing he noticed was how beautiful her orange and green dress looked as it clung to her coffee coloured skin, wet from the rain.
The third thing he noticed was how fast his heart was beating, like a drum, as she looked up and spotted him. Gazed deeply into his eyes. Gave him a weak half smile. Beckoned for him to come closer. And that was when he knew…
He was in love with her.
He ran up and embraced her, ignoring the rain that soaked his shirt. She threw her arms around his neck. It was like a dream. He was just dreaming…
"We were dancing, and then… he broke up with me. Just… just like that." She sobbed.
This wasn't a dream.
"He didn't even… love me…"
I do. Fred thought. I always will…
He wished he could say it, but as he opened his mouth, something else came out:
"You're better off without him."
Angie hugged Fred, pulled him in closer. He clung to her and rested his face on her head, savouring her smell, right up until she let go.
No. Tell her… tell her! He thought. He opened his mouth, then closed it. He couldn't do it…
He smiled gently as Angie dried her eyes. The rain poured down, but he didn't move. He stayed and stared at her until she thanked him and told him he was the best friend she could ever have.
He stayed, even when she stood up and left.
He stayed well after she was gone.
He wished he'd known before tonight. He wished she'd stayed. He missed her already. He'd missed his chance.
He blew it. She thought. But I should've said something. Told him I loved him. Told him I always would. Told him I didn't mean to let go…
