A/N: I know if Ginny's 5 then Fred should be 8 but I wanted him to be a lot older because I think it works more. I know it's written it quite a childish way. It's meant to be almost as if Ginny's writing it but still in 3rd person and I'm sorry if some of the grammars bad. I'm just guessing that Fred's full name isn't just Fred.

Silent Night

Ginny Weasley was a 5 year old witch. Not a witch as in green skin and a long pointy nose. She was perfectly normal. She had 6 older brothers, all very annoying but some of them could be really kind and caring when the wanted to be.

One night Ginny was trying to get to sleep. It was very late. Some people, not saying any names (Ron!), thought that Ginny was a very strange girl because she didn't like silence. It scared her. But anyway that night was a very quite one. No wind. No rain. And Ginny was having real trouble trying to get to sleep. She had no night light in her room and if it was silent the dark often scared her to. She was becoming more frightened by the minute so she pulled her cover over her face so she wouldn't have to look into her dark room. Just in case she saw the monsters. That's what she didn't like about the dark if it was quite. The figures she sometimes saw. Her mum had told her not to be silly.

'It's just your mind playing tricks on you, darling'

Ginny knew this. But it was still scary.

She couldn't bare it anymore. She had to turn the light on. But she couldn't. The light was by the window and she didn't want to go anywhere near there. There might be something behind the curtains and anyway she couldn't get out of the bed in case something grabbed her feet. She knew she was being silly. But she couldn't help it.

Ginny remembered that terrible nightmare she had last year and had never forgotten. That monster in her room, the silence, the dark, something grabbing her feet. But she couldn't bear to think of that anymore. She would have to be brave. She knew her mum always left the hallway light on downstairs. If she could just get there it would be ok.

Ok just get there as quick as you can she thought to herself.

With that thought she hopped out of her bed and out of the door. She ran and ran. It seemed like forever. And suddenly she bumped into someone. Ginny looked up. It was Fred. She felt a lot better not being on her own. Fred was 15. He was practically an adult... well to Ginny anyway.

"What are you doing?" she asked him

"I just came back from putting a flower bomb in the kitchen cupboard... don't tell mum. But what in the name of Merlin's Skiving Snackbox are you doing? Its 1 in the morning!"

"Going to the light" Ginny whispered suddenly scared again.

"Are you scared again?"

Ginny nodded

"What is it?" he said kneeling down so he was the same height as her.

"I-It's to silent" Ginny thought he would laugh as she said this "and dark and ... scary and I can't turn the light on because of the monsters and-"

"It's ok Gin" he said "Come on. I'll show you that there's no monsters and you shouldn't say 'and' so much" Fred grinned at her

They both walked back to Ginny's room and Fred turned the light on without hesitating. Ginny wondered how he could be this brave.

"See" he said coming back to stand with Ginny in the doorway. "No monsters"

Ginny slowly walked into the room. Fred followed her.

"Yes but they're come back when I turn the light off" Ginny said as she sat on her bed

"No they won't. There is no such thing as monsters and if there was they won't come back ever again' Fred said going to sit next to her.

"Why not?"

"Well... err... because in the story's, which aren't true, monsters are scared of twins" he said smiling at her.

"Well if they're not true then they will come back?" Ginny said half statement half question.

"Well if it's not true then there's no such thing as monsters" he replied giving her a hug. "Shall I tell you a story?"

"Yes! Yes! Yes!"

"Ok. This is mine and George's version of Babbitty Rabbitty"

"Go on"

"Babbitty Rabbitty and Her Crackling Stump. Gred and Forge Version! A long time ago, in a far-off land (Diagon Alley!), there lived a foolish king named Ronald Bilius Weasley."

Ginny giggled

(Fred's POV)

Fred was making this up as he went along. But he noticed that Ginny giggled so it was going well.

"The king decided that only he would be allowed the power of magic. He therefore commanded the head of his army to form a Brigade of Witch-Hunters, and issued them with a pack of ferocious black cats!"

Fred really didn't know what to say now as he had forgotten the next part of the story so he completely made it up.

"Mr R Bilius Weasley wasn't meant to be king at all. Two very handsome twins where. The one with the shorter name (longer if you use his full name!) would be in charge of most of the kingdom-"

Ginny giggled even more

"-and the other one could be in charge of some of the kingdom... just a bit. If the twins where kings they would have an amazing palace. It would be a massive joke shop that earned millions of galleons a day and Mr R Bilius Weasley would be a have to clean the toilets" Fred couldn't help but smile at the thought. He looked at Ginny... she was asleep. He decided that his story could wait for next time Ginny was scared so he pulled her covers over her and turned the light of, praying that this wouldn't wake her up, and walked out of her room and back into his and George's.

(Ginny's POV)

The next day when Ginny skipped downstairs for breakfast everyone was already there. As she skipped past Ron she turned to him and said...

"Hello Mr R Bilius Weasley. You are a very foolish king" Then she skipped off to sit down and have breakfast without waiting for him to reply.

Fred laughed as she said this and spilt his food everywhere.

Everyone was now looking at Ginny in a 'What in the name of Merlin's pants' kind of way apart from Fred.

"Ginny" Fred said while cleaning up his food. His mother had given him that scary look that meant 'clean it up or else' "The story said 'A long time ago' you were meant to say 'you were' not 'are'. I'm king now... and George of course" Fred grinned.

Ginny now noticed that her mother was covered in flower. She looked at Fred and he winked.

That's how Ginny and Fred became very good friends and the next time Ginny was scared, Fred told her the hole story about how he and George had fed Mr R Bilius Weasley loads of puking pastilles and had become kings. Also how they flower bombed everyone who told them what to do and saved the day everyday and became heroes.
