CHAPTER 10

When Lily's room was done, Fred and George carried her trunks upstairs. Coincidentally, it was the furthest room from the twins.

"I know it's not much," Fred said.

"It's great, thanks" she said and slipped her hands around his neck and kissed him softly. George cleared his throat. Lily ran up and hugged him.

"Thank you too Georgie," she said pulling away.

"No problem Lil," he smiled.

They went downstairs and ate lunch while Lily and Fred were playing footsies under the table. After that Fred and Lily went to her room to unpack.

"You don't need to help Fred," she said following him hand in hand up the stairs.

"I'd be a terrible boyfriend if I didn't help my girlfriend unpack," he smiled looking back at her.

"You know, I still love hearing you say that," she sighed, stopping at her bedroom door.

She kissed him and walked into the room. She heard him sigh and follow her in, closing the door behind him.

Lily undid the latches on her trunks and opened them. There was a big one and a smaller one. The big one was clothes, the smaller one was books and other belongings. Lily packed away her clothes and Fred put her books and quills and games on the shelves. It must've taken the better part of an hour to finish it all.

Once they did, they collapsed onto her bed. They lied side by side for a while, then Lily planted a playful kiss on Fred's lips. He swung a leg over her waist so he was on top of her. He leaned down, so close she could basically taste his lips. Then just at the last second, before their mouths connected, Fred smiled and bounded off the bed.

"It's not nice to tease Fred," she pouted getting up and standing in front of him.

"You," he pulled her towards him, "tease me every day,"

"How?" she said loudly.

"Your voice, your hair, your hands, your hips, your legs," he pulled her in once more, "shall I continue?"

"Well I don't mean to," she looked up at him through her eyelashes.

"I know. And that just makes you so much harder to resist," he brushed his nose against her cheek.

"And why are you resisting?" she breathed into his neck. Fred shivered.

"See, again with the teasing," he whispered back.

"You didn't answer the question," she said moving away and sitting cross legged on the bed.

"I resist because," he sat across from her, assuming the same position, "when I start kissing you, it takes all my strength to stop,"

She smiled and pulled Fred into a soft kiss that quickly grew heated. Fred felt a fire in the pit of his stomach when Lily ran a hand through his hair. He snaked his arm around her waist and pulled her onto his knee. She felt Fred smile against the kiss. This made her smile too.

Lily moaned into the kiss and Fred licked her bottom lip. Lily parted her mouth, allowing his tongue to dance with hers. He pulled her huskily closer to him again. Lily leaned him back, until he was lying flat on the bed and she was above him.

He slid his hands from her shoulders to her waist, then down to her hips, giving her a slight squeeze before sliding further down to her thighs. He slipped them back up a little, taking the sides of her dress with his hands.

Lily finally broke off the snog. They were both breathing heavily.

"Hey," Fred said "I was enjoying that,"

"Me too," she kissed him once more then lying next to him, "but right now, I kinda just want you to hold me. If that's okay?"

He kissed her on the forehead and wrapped his arms around her protectively.

"Yeah, I can do that honey," he said and she leaned her head into Fred's chest and closed her eyes.
