Chapter Ten
Fred hadn't realized the charm Emmie had set up had worn off until he heard snickering. He opened his eyes to see George, Lee Jorden, and Kenneth Towler looking at him with smirks from different areas of the room. He looked over to see Emmie curled into him, her face buried in his side as she slept. He slowly maneuvered so he could sit up and allow her to sleep. He looked at each of them with a head shake.
"We didn't do anything, if that why your laughing." He said as he sat at the edge of the queen sized bed. They looked disappointed. "She just fell asleep here."
"You have such an intense relationship, I've noticed." Lee said.
"Emmie calls it a touchy feely one."
"It sounds like a little kid description really." A sleepy voice said and they looked over to see Emmie slowly waking. She groaned. "I can't believe I fell asleep in here. Angie is never going to let me live it down." She sat up.
"Your hair is a mess."
"Yes, thank you George. I just woke up, it's called bed head." She said in annoyance. Emmie stood, stretched and left after brushing Fred's cheeks. "See you later."
"Seriously, I can't even get a girl to look at me in that way. You got one in your bed." Fred opened his mouth but Kenneth cut him off. "Yeah, yeah, you didn't do anything, but still."
"Where were you? I get here at 1:00 in the morning, the end of the ball and you're not here but your dress is. Then I wake up to get water, still not here." Angelina was staring at Emmie, Alicia Spinnet watching from where she was putting her brush away.
"Well, I, you see."
Angelina gasped. "Did you sleep with Fred?"
"Not in that sense!" Emmie quickly corrected. "We were snogging and I feel asleep in his bed. Nothing like that actually happened!"
"Mmhmm. Did you want to?"
Emmie turned a deep red. "N-no."
"Liar." Angelina said with a grin and Alicia laughed while Emmie just groaned. She grabbed a change of clothes and went to shower.
"You really think she was lying." Alicia asked after the shower was heard.
Angelina paused for a second before nodding. "Yeah. Their relationship is very, intense. I think they have a snogging session every night somewhere. If them getting back after curfew and her looking flustered says anything. Also I've seen red marks on her neck, though she tries to hide them." She smirked. "I bet Fred wants it too but he won't rush her."
"What should we do?"
Angelina gave an evil grin. "We talk to George."
….
"You seriously think she wants to shag Fred?" George asked Angelina and Alicia.
"Yes, I'm positive. When I asked, she wouldn't look me in the eye and stuttered out that she didn't want too. I've known Emmie for 6 years and that's what she does when she lies." Angelina sounded confident. "What about Fred?"
"He may be my twin but I don't know everything about him. But when he told us nothing happened this morning, he did look a little upset, like he wanted to but knew not to rush Emmie."
"So what should we do?" Angelina tapped her chin and Alicia giggled.
"Shouldn't we do nothing? Let them figure it out for themselves?" George raised an eyebrow.
"No, Emmie over thinks things. She'll just hold back until she's like, thirty, because she kept wondering what she should do. She's not a prude but she's not always positive on these things. We need to get them to realize they both want this. That's probably why. They don't think the other wants to shag."
"Well, now how should we execute this?" George asked.
"That's why I came to you." Angelina said. "You always have the ideas. Do you have one?"
"A faint one. I need to think more on this, see if I can make it work."
Emmie raised an eyebrow as Harry showed her the plant.
"Should I hug Neville or that elf, Dobby, for this?" She asked. It was the day of the second task and Harry was just as nervous as the first one it seemed. He gave a shaky laugh.
"Hey, have you seen Hermione and Ron?" He asked and Emmie shook her head. Suddenly, the memory of Harry telling her what the egg said drifted through her mind. We've taken what you'll sorely miss.
"I think I know where they are." Harry looked at her and she whispered in his ear. "The egg said they would take what you would sorely miss. Guess who the two people you sorely miss are."
He looked at her with wide eyes. "They have Hermione and Ron."
"Don't worry kid, you can do this."
Before Harry could respond, it was time for him to leave. She gave him a quick hug before he nervously left the great hall. George, Fred, and Angelina came in. Fred looking at George and Angelina in apprehension since they were giving him weird looks. When they reached Emmie, she stood.
"We need to get to the Black Lake. C'mon."
"But breakfast!"
"You guys slept in so it's your own fault." She took Fred's hand and they walked out of the castle. He was rubbing the top of her hand with his thumb as they found a seat. His fingers traveled up and down her arm. "Really? We're in the middle of a crowd with every student in the school."
"I really don't care." He whispered in her ear.
"Yeah, well all the teachers are here too. I thought you cared if I got in trouble?"
"Yeah, people have kissed in front of the professors though."
"Not the way we do." She kissed his cheek before looking where the champions were standing. Harry looked so small compared to them.
She saw him put the gillyweed in his mouth and it looked like he was choking on it. The cannon was heard and he jumped into the water, well fell was more like it. Cedric was the first out with Cho Chang. Then Krum with Hermione. He must like her enough to be his treasure as Bagman called it. That means Ron was for Harry. Fleur came up but she didn't have who she needed. It seemed she was attacked. Emmie looked around the water, waiting for Harry. It seemed like forever and people were starting to whisper when three heads were seen. It seemed Harry had also saved Fleur's sister. Emmie clapped along with everyone else as they swam to the dock.
