Enjoy!!

"Cuddle?" He grinned back, "Blanket?" a wider, evil grin sprung across his face, "You? Me?" He nodded approvingly, "I'm in." And without another word, he grabbed her arm, and, nearly yanking her arm from its socket, dragged her all the way along the main street and back to the passageway.

She sat, crouching in the darkness as he checked the coast was clear.

"C'mon, mate." he held out his hand and pulled her up, out of the passage and into the dim glow of the moonlight reflecting on the castle walls. "Alright, Katie?!" she nodded as he curled his hand around her wrist, then aborted that and grabbed her hand, locking their fingers together.

They hit the ground running and ducked between two tall pillars as they heard voices. Perpetually nervous, Katie let out a high giggle and Fred had to clamp his hand over her mouth as Filch, Mrs. Norris and the Bloody Baron passed, clearly discussing a new, horrible punishment, possibly involving muggle thumbscrews and hot chocolate. As soon as their voices dropped from earshot, the pair of students were running back towards their common room.

"Orange Bubbles," She grinned as she breathed the password, Fred pulling her into their third kiss of the night as they practically fell through the portrait and onto a couch in the corner of the room.

"Thank you." He breathed as she pulled away and leaned back on the cushions. "For teaching me how to skate," He clarified as she looked quizzically into his eyes. "And for… saying yes." There was a small pause, she leaned forward and pulled him into a tight embrace.

"I've liked you a long time," She whispered, "Why wouldn't I?" he leaned closer and watched her as she blinked, closed her eyes, and smiled widely, letting out a happy sigh.

"Well, personally, I'd assume there are about a hundred reas-" She pressed her hand across his mouth, he licked it and she drew away, disgusted.

"There was no need for that!" She said, wiping her palm across his cheek. "Ugh, that's filthy."

"Do you expect anything less?" She considered it and shrugged indifferently. "Exactly."

"Hmm… still…" she raised her eyebrows and leaned against him, "I'd expect a little… restraint."

"You're talking to a Weasley twin." He grinned, "Restraint isn't in my vocabulary."

He rubbed the last word of each sentence out and replaced it with the single word "Knickers", then replaced the essay in her bag, smirking to himself. Katie caught him grinning and immediately the smile was infectious. She took her seat beside him and leaned on his shoulder.

When she realised George was looking, she leaned away, blushing. Neither had told anyone else that they were a couple, both preferring people to work it out for themselves.

"What have you done?" She whispered as he took her hand under the table. "Alicia will cry if you've-"

"Miss Spinnet. I do not know if you think this is funny or what, but I don't think replacing every last word with an undergarment is particularly appropriate."

"Fred!?" Katie looked at him, aghast. "You never-"

"It was too tempting." He smiled, "forgive me?" That smile always made her grin back, even though the innocence was never there, and she knew he would show no remorse. A prank was a prank. A joke was stupid, but then never mentioned again. She nodded without hesitation.

He curled his arm around her waist as they left the classroom, she blushed darkly as they passed Roger Davies, he gave her a strange look but it passed quickly, she ignored it, loving the feel of his arm around her, his warmth almost comforting.

Fred sat down in the sunshine just before the lunch bell rang and pulled her into his lap under the Oak Tree by the lake. She leaned against him again and pulled out her charms textbook, holding it on her lap so the pair of them could read it.

Ten minutes later, Alicia and George joined them, finding the pair intertwined, his head on her shoulder, her hands reaching up to gently pull his hair, her head tilted back to look into his eyes. Before the pair noticed that they had suddenly become a foursome, Fred leaned slightly to kiss her on the lips.

George gasped, surprised as he saw his twin kissing one of their best friends. Alicia just smiled.

A/N : Hope you enjoyed it! My GOSH I actually cannot do endings to chapters.

What failure am I?

Please message me with ideas/review with ideas, as I still want to carry on with this...

I think Fred/Katie is really underdone.
