Chapter 4
Angie

I apparated in front of Fred and George's shop. It was raining in Diagon Alley and my hair was already soaked. I felt like fool as I tried to turn the doorknob and it was locked. I turned my back to the door.

"Bloody fantastic" I whispered to myself soaking wet in the rain. Why had I reacted like that? No, no I had every reason in the world to act like that. It was true! I was a total rebound from Katie it wasn't even fair. I thought about whether I should knock or if I should just apparate home and decided I should get my broom and not worry about ever coming back. I knocked on the door hard three times. No one came. I rolled my eyes and slammed my back against the door just as it opened. I turned to see Fred smiling at me.

"Ah Angie I was hoping you'd come back to talk" I rolled my eyes.

"I need my broom Fred" Fred's smile disappeared and he looked a little down.

"Oh…alright" he moved from the doorway and let me through. I grabbed my broom. Should I talk to Fred? I asked myself. One part of my brain screamed BLOODY HELL YES YOU IDIOT! But the other screamed ARE YOU STUPID LEAVE! I thought about it standing there staring him in the eyes. Finally I chose my side.

"What is it?" I asked. "Am I a rebound? What am I to you?" Fred shook his head.

"Angie there never was a me and Katie. I thought about you constantly you are the one that I want" I chuckled a little bit.

"Ha, ha, ha so funny. Everyone knows the story Fred it's not a secret anymore Katie has a bloody hard time keeping her mouth shut" Fred was looking at his feet speechless. "You asked me to the dance that one year remember? Why me?" Fred shrugged.

"I told you" I stared Fred down.

"Tell me why" Fred sighed.

"Bloody hell you don't seem to get things do you? Your pretty, your smart, your out there perfect material for the dance. I didn't think you were interested in me like that so I never gave it a second thought and you bloody well never seemed to be giving me one" I rolled my eyes. I knew what he was referring to and it wasn't fair. Once I had gone out with a guy one guy and it was the biggest mistake of my life.

"That's not fair everybody knew…" my voice trailed off. Everybody knew that I had briefly gone out with Lee Jordon. Everybody knew that we spent hours of time making out in the common room. Everybody knew that things ended completely the hour after Fred Weasley kissed me in the hallway and said see you later. He never did he never saw me later.

"Everybody knew that you two were close in some ways more then others" I shook my head.

"You know what the answer is Fred. Someone wrote to you maybe Lee himself" Fred shook his head.

"What's the answer Angie cause I can't seem to find it never could, last time I saw Lee he was telling me how great you were how happy he was, next thing I know I'm getting these letters detailed that I'm the reason you ended it that's all I know."

"You kissed me" I said tears streaming down my cheeks. "You kissed me and said you'd see me later and left! I thought you'd be back in an hour or two and I know the only person I wanted to be with was you!"

"And you never cared to tell me your feelings before Katie, before Lee, before I left the bloody scene!" Yelled Fred.

"You think it would have changed anything? You want to know why I dated Lee to make you jealous everyone in the school knew I was in love with you except for you!" Fred nodded.

"Angie…" I shook my head and grabbed my broom.

"I get it," I said. "I really do you never loved me you never thought twice about me. You agreed to this date for what? Time to catch up? Figure out how the break up really went down? Or do you care! Do you care about me?"

"Angie wait you never give me a chance to explain!" I chuckled.

"In total I've given you a year to explain and you've avoided every chance you had" I pushed open the front door and headed out into the street. I hid behind a corner and turned to see the lights already out in Fred and George's shop. I wiped my remaining tears away. Well that date went well I thought to myself as I mounted my broom and flew off into the night.
