AN: I do not own any of these characters, just borrowing. Thanks for reviews, favorites, and follows. Reviews help me grow as a writer and provide better stories for all of you! I know this one is sort of short, but I wanted to end it where I have! Will upload another tomorrow (Hopefully, I have tons of homework and an actual job)!

Chpt. 4

"We're leaving Hogwarts."

"What? Fred? George? What am I supposed to do without you? I'll go mental." Hermione responded pleadingly.

"Well you're already mental 'Mione. Not much more we can do." Fred responded jokingly; A hint of sadness in his eyes.

Fred and George were planning on leaving Hogwarts with the prank of the century. Hermione however did not want them to go. Lately things between Ron and Hermione had been really strange. Ron had confessed to Harry that he thought that Hermione liked George. HeHermione had attempted to convince him otherwise but Ron remained stubborn and hurt over the 'betrayal.'

"Well when do you plan on leaving?" Hermione asked quietly.

"Tomorrow after dinner," Responded George excitedly. "This is going to be the best exit in the history of Hogwarts! We have got to go finish our plans. Meet up with you after dinner in the common room Hermione."

Hermione was asleep on the couch in the common room when Fred and George returned. George decided to hear up to bed and Fred stayed to wake Hermione up so she could sleep in her bed.

"'Mione," Fred said softy as he shook her shoulder.

Hermione jumped, as Fred shook her awake. Hermione's eyes shot open and Fred was alarmed by the amount of panic he could see in them.

"Are you okay 'Mione?" Fred asked in a whisper.

"Yah." Hermione let out a deep sigh as she sat up on the couch. "Just was having a weird dream." Hermione replied.

"What was it about? You seemed awfully panicked for just a 'weird dream.'" Fred sat down beside her as he spoke.

"Well, I had a dream that you were hurt by Voldemort. The dream was all over the place but I just know I was so scared and sad," Hermione said sheepishly.

Fred pulled her legs, which were resting on the couch between them, over his so they were face to face.

"I am fine 'Mione. You don't need to worry about me. It's probably me who should be worry about you; Running off with Harry and Ron to fight a new evil each school year." Fred's voice was soothing yet firm. He was trying to reassure Hermione that things would be alright.

Hermione turned so that her head was on Fred's lap. They spoke for a while about silly things. Laughing about pranks he had pulled and stories Hermione told of the muggle world until Hermione began to drift to sleep.

"I love you," Fred whispered to the sleeping Hermione.

Today was the day that Fred and George were leaving. Fred was upset to be leaving Hermione in this place that had become anything but home. George was off setting up the final pieces of their plan. Hermione and Fred were walking out to the lake talking about little things, while trying to avoid the thing that was weighing down on them.

"'Mione, I can tell you are upset we're leaving and I don't want to leave you either, but can we please just have one more fun day before I go?" Fred pleaded with her.

"I suppose we could," Hermione said. "But what do I get out of it?" she said teasingly.

"Hmm well I suppose you get to spend the day with me!" Fred responded joyfully.

Hermione shot Fred a mischievous look, and then looked quickly to the lake that was about 100 meters away.

"What are you-"

Hermione cut Fred off yelling "Race you to the lake!"

Hermione had a head start and was soon running full speed toward lake. Fred followed behind quickly gaining speed. He was less than a meter behind when he grabbed Hermione by the waist and pulled her back toward him. He clumsily tripped over her foot and span, allowing Hermione to land on top of him instead of below him. Hermione let out a quick scream before bursting into laughter. Fred smiled up at her, enjoying the way her face lit up when she laughed.

Hermione stopped laughing and look Fred in the face. Their eyes locked, and Fred looked down at her beautiful pink lips. The way they perk up at the sides, in a sort of never ending mischievous grin.

Before he knew it, he was kissing her. His left hand moved to the small of her back and the right tangled in her beautiful, brown, curly hair. Hermione pressed her body against his, wanting to remove all space between them. Fred removed his lips from hers and pressed a kiss gently on her neck. The scent of Hermione's perfume filled Fred's nose leaving him wanting more. They rolled over and Fred used his arms to support himself. They deepened the kiss; enjoying the feel of each other's body against their own.

Finally, they pulled apart from each other; gasping for air and completely shocked.
