~Chapter two! I'll write just a few chapters about them as a couple.~
It was just a few days into summer vacation. Fred and Luna were walking deep into the woods behind Luna's house. They were in long sleeved shirts and pants so wouldn't get stung by the billywigs. The bad thing about that was that it was blistering hot outside. "So Luna, where do we find these. . . um billywigs again?"
"Well they live hot climates. And we most likely find them maybe a patch of flowers or clovers. Some place where the sun shines on them." She adjusted her backpack on her shoulders. "Uh hu. Well. . . " Luna interrupted him. "Oh this spot is perfect!" It was a clearing in the woods. With a bunch of flowers. The sun was shining on on the patch. She carefully knelt down. Fred did the same.
Luna took off her back pack started digging through until she found what she was looking for. She pulled out two magnify glasses. And handed one to Fred. They started looking for through the flowers and grass. "Have you hunted these things before?" Fred asked Luna.
"Well. . . no not exactly." "Let's be. . . . I found one!" Luna quickly and gently crawled over. She didn't want to crush one by mistake. "You did! Here" She handed him a very small cage. He trapped the little guy inside. "Billywigs usually travel in packs I wonder where the rest of OW!" Fred looked at her. "What's wr OW!" "Uh I think we found the rest of them Fred. Let's let him go." Fred opened the cage and the Billywig flew out. But it wasn't enough before their very eyes a huge swarm of them buzzed up from the flowers. "Run!" Luna said as she took Fred by the hand. And the two ran as fast as they could. They still got stung on the arms and legs. There was a lake ahead of them. They jumped in. Luna and Fred stayed under the water until the Billywigs left. Which wasn't that long.
They swam to the surface and back to dry land. Breathing hard Fred said, "These clothes didn't help at all." "Sorry." Luna's words were slurred. The two just laughed and laughed. "I feel really funny." Fred laughed. "So do i." Luna suddenly gasped. "What is it?" "Hurry, take this." She said taking out a bunch of rope from her backpack. "What's this for?"
"Remember what i said about the Billywigs sting? It causes giddiness and levitation. We already have giddiness. Next is levitation. We must tie ourselves to something heavy quickly." Fred and Luna hurried over to the closest tree and tied themselves up against the tree trunk. "Well this is fun." Fred said sarcastically. "I am so sorry Fred. I thought this was going to be fun. And it just turned out to be a disaster. Can you ever forgive me?" Fred looked over at Luna. "Aww. Hey Luna i didn't mean anything by it. I don't care what we do as long as we're together." Luna smiled. "If i could I would hug you right now Fredrick." Fred laughed and eased over a bit and put an arm around Luna's shoulders. She layed her head upon his shoulder. "So when do you think this stuff will wear off?" Fred asked. "I'm not sure. Hopefully soon." "Not too soon." Fred tightened his grip on her shoulders.
The Billywig's sting lasted up to a few hours. Fred and Luna untied themselves from the tree when they were sure they would not float off. Still a bit giddy Fred walked Luna back home. When they reached the door Luna turned back to Fred. "I had fun today Luna." "I did too." "So. . . i guess I'll see you tomorrow then?" "Yes, that would be delightful. Maybe this time you can pick what we do." Fred chuckled. "Maybe." With that said he leaned down and kissed her cheek. He turned to leave and started to walk towards home. "Wait!" Luna cried. He turned back. "What is it?" "Do you want to stay for dinner? My dad is a pretty good cook and. . . " she was rambling. "Luna, I would love to have dinner with you and your father."
They walked into the her house. Mr. Lovegood was setting the table. "Hello father." He looked at his daughter. " Ello love. Whos' your friend?" Fred stepped forward and shook the older man's hand. "Hello, sir my name is Fredrick Weasley. People call me Fred." "Are you related to Ginny Weasley?" Fred smiled. "Yes, sir she's my little sister." "That's nice. Will you join us for dinner?" "If it's alright." "Of course it is. And stop calling me sir. Call me Xenophillius." Fred nodded. "Alright Xenophilius." The three sat down to dinner. "So, Luna what did you and Fredrick do today?" "Well we attempted to hunt Billywigs." Mr. Lovegood looked at her daughter. "You need to be careful when you hunt those things. Wear multiple layers of clothing." Fred chuckled. "We know that now." Mr. Lovegood took a bite of his food. "Got stung did ya?" "Yes quit a bit." It was Xenophilius' turn to laugh. "Yes, nasty creatures they are."
"But they are fascinating." Luna added. "They are." Fred said. They talked through the meal. "Thank you for letting me have dinner with you, sir. . . I mean Xenophilius." "Anytime Fredrick." "Call me Fred, please." "Alrighty then Fred." Luna walked up to Fred and wrapped her arms around him and pulled him into a hug. "See you tomorrow." She said. "Yeah, I'll come by at ten o' clock tomorrow morning?" "That's just fine." "Okay. Bye." He headed home.
At the Weasley's home:
Everyone was just sitting down to dinner. "George, where is Fred? I haven't seen him all day." Mrs. Weasley asked. "He's still on his date with, Luna." "As in Luna Lovegood. Ginny's friend Luna Lovegood?" Ron asked in disbelief. "Yepp I know it shocked me too." "I would have never put them together." Harry said. "Exactly what I said." George replied.
"Well he better get home soon. He never misses dinner." Just then the door opened to reveal the love struck Weasley boy. He had his sleeves rolled up to his elbows. He had Billywig stings all over them. They looked like mosquito bites. Mrs. Weasley instantly rushed over to him. And grabed his arms. "Fredrick! What happened?" He laughed. "Just some Billywig stings. Nothing to worry about, dear mother." "Billy what?" She asked confused. "A type of insect. They are quite fascinating. Their sting causes Giddiness and levitation. The levitation wore off though. Still a bit giddy," He laughed again. "I'm sure it will wear off soon."
Mrs. Weasley sighed. "Come now Fred, sit down. And let's carry on with dinner." "No thanks mom. I ate with Xenophilius and Luna. I'm going to head off to bed. Goodnight all. Love you." He said kissing his mother's cheek and walked up the stairs. Everyone stared after him in shock. He and George were never that caring towards their mother. They loved her and all, but the two never really showed it. And Fred nor George EVER said 'love you' or anything sweet like that. It wasn't to be mean it was just who they were. Fred and George were tricksters. Not the type of people who show their feelings. Luna was having a big affect on him. "This is getting serious!" George said. Making everyone look at him. "I'll have to plan out alot of pranks and tricks. To turn him back into the Fred we all know and love. He's acting all weird. . . . like Percy!" Percy was sitting right next to him and slapped him on the back of the head.
"Very funny George." Percy said sarcastically. George smiled. "Awww why thank you Percy. Now tell me I'm the funnier and better looking twin, right?" Percy sighed and rolled his eyes. "More like more annoying and stupid twin. Oh wait that's both you AND Fred. " Ron said. George flicked a spoon full of smashed potatoes at Ron and hitting him in the face. "Hey!" He yelled. And threw gravey at his older brother. And missing George about a foot. George stuck his tongue out. BOYS ENOUGH!" Molly Weasley yelled and her sons silenced. "George there is nothing wrong with Fred spending time with other people once and a while. And Ron wipe your face off dear." She handed Ron a napkin. George sunk back in his chair. He missed Fred already. And they had only spent one day apart. What was the rest of the summer going to be like?
~I'll have to think up the next chapter. Sorry if Fred and Luna came across high. LOL! It sounds like that in J.K. Rowling's book "Fantastic beasts and where to find them." And i just didn't know how to make them giddy so i just made them laugh a lot. Haha.
