Note: Another nice short chapter. Hopefully this sort of outlines Fred before he met Tammie. Sort hints at the close brotherly love too. George is proud.

YEAR 3 (Fred Weasley's 5th Year)

Troublemaker

"We only get caught if we want to, besides, you're just mad we have to stop doing this" I paused to give her an unexpected kiss. She giggled, turned red and shook her head.

"No, I'm all for stopping that for the moment. Though, I am surprised how much we got in on the train" she said as I nodded. Even with the annoyance of Draco Malfoy we still got something in.

"I'll be back though, promise; I suggest not waiting up though" I told her with a wink as I kissed her again. She smiled sweetly, and kissed me back. Charity. My, well, friend. Or whatever. Something. We had something. A somethingship. I smiled to myself at the word. It was a good somethingship of course. No strings, no boundaries, she wasn't asking for any kind of commitment, she wasn't nosey about my whereabouts she didn't patronize me for being me.

My family liked her, or well, what they knew of her. Percy used to scold us for making out in the halls when we were supposed to be in class. Mum thought she was a decent girl, only a year younger; though she wasn't too fond of the sour looking expression Charity made when something didn't go her way. Thankfully that didn't happen often. Though the last time I got the sour look it was when I was supposed to invite her to the house. I wanted to, I did, I just, didn't do it.

"Freddie" George said nodding toward the entrance.

"See you soon" I told Charity as I gave her one last kiss and followed the boys out. "Another night, another adventure!" I told them happily.

"So, when are you two going to you know, get all personal and exclusive and have awkward dates?" Lee asked as we walked around the halls.

"Don't know, I mean, there's the potential, I like her, she's a good kisser. But, she knows I'm not exactly…planning for anything. I have big dreams men" I told them as Lee rolled his eyes.

"I think you should definitely go with it, she makes you happy, she's easy" he said as I raised an eyebrow at him. "Sorry, she's simple" he corrected as I nudged him and then laughed.

"Hey, it's this one" Lee said as he pushed a door open. We followed him in, locking the door behind ourselves as we moved to the front of the room. Three boxes were sitting there. I smiled wildly, our 'decorations' were waiting and ready to be put up. I was more than confident Flitch would especially like it.
