I just wanted to clarify in case you didn't get it. Take the whole HP time line and move everyone up a year, first year never happened. The gang started their first year on the events of second year and so on. Ginny started her first year on the events of third year. So the Triwiz happened in Harry's third year/Ginny's second, Umbridge came in their fourth year/Ginny's third, and Sirius didn't die. This story starts on the gangs fifth year/ when the new professor takes potions and Snape has DADA. The battle of the Department of Mysteries never happened. (The battle where Sirius would have died and the Ministry saw Voldy.)


Bellatrix laughed, "I knew it was going to be a lot! I didn't expect this much."

"Alice has a knack for getting exactly what the person has in mind." I explained, setting the bags down in the corner by her bed. She ushered us out.

"I need to wrap them, and then we'll talk." She said. I smiled and nodded.

"Yes, I need to wrap mine as well. Talk to you later." I said. She smiled and closed the door. I heard paper and tape rustle as she started to wrap. I ran to my room and started to wrap all of mine, which was a lot.


I ended up with a big pile of wrapped presents that were covered in candy canes. I took a warm shower and let my hair cascade down my back, wet and clingy. I had yet seen Fred today, or any of the boys for that matter, except for this morning. I hope Fred was okay!

I sat in my room and sorted all of the presents into a pile by each person. I looked up when I heard footsteps to see my mother.

"I think I have more than you!" my mum laughed. I shook my head, disbelieving. My mum barely knew anyone, but she got them something for Christmas. I smiled and patted the spot next to my bed. My mother sat and we started to talk.

"How are you and Fred?"

I smiled, "Amazing!"

"Where have you been sleeping? I came up here last night and you weren't here."

I blushed, "Fred doesn't think it's safe with Edward trying to get back together with me. So, I sleep with him. I, personally, don't think it's safe with Edward trying to kill Fred, Sirius, and you."

Bellatrix laughed, "Esme told me about your neck."

I laughed, "Esme would never!"

Bellatrix laughed, "Your right, Rosalie did."

I smiled. "I am going to kill her. Rose! If you can hear me, I hope you know that you are officially on death row with me!" I said. Bellatrix laughed a little harder.

"You are going to kill a vampire?" I nodded, "How do you even know the Cullen's? You look so at ease with everyone, except the one that tries to get to you, Edward?"

"It's a long story." I sighed.

"I think I got time."

I smiled, "Okay, so Dumbledore sent me on a mission to go to Forks to find out more about this vampire coven that only feeds off of animals. I got close to Edward, but I didn't love him. He loved me. You see, my force field thing was controlled by my emotions. It is most dangerous when I am happy or sad or angry, but I am learning to control them. When Fred kissed me, I decided that I should just let emotions take control. Anyway, I went to Muggle school and I met the Cullen's. They loved me right away and they were like the family I never had. Alice and Rose would take me shopping, though Rose didn't really like me, and Jasper and Emmett would joke around and play games with me.

"My blood sings to him, so he left for a week to control himself. Then, he came back and tried to talk to me. About a month later, I was walking outside to my truck, which is a Muggle car, and a van, another type of Muggle car, slid on some ice and was flying straight toward me. I didn't have time to get my wand, and then Edward was there, pushing the van out of the way. I knew then that he and his family were vampires. I had suspicions, but he confirmed it. I went to the hospital and his father came and checked me out, seeing my many factures and concusions from the years before at Hogwarts. Then, I tried to get him to tell me how it happened, but he said that I hit my head to hard, which I didn't.

"I went to Port Angeles, which was a city, with some friends and we were picking out dresses for the dance. I wanted to go to the book store, so I wandered off. Some guys followed me and I was being herded into some trap. They were trying to rape me so I was getting ready to pull out my wand, but then Edward came and took me to a restaurant. I had dinner, and on the ride home, he told me what he was. After that, we were inseperable, well he couldn't go anywhere without me. I couldn't care less. After that, I found out that he watched me sleep, and he would listen to me talk in my sleep. That was what made me know for a fact that I couldn't love him. Did you know that in his entire hundred years, he has never been with a girl?" I asked my mum

She laughed, "Now I know why!"

I giggled, "So he would watch me sleep and then I met his family. That night, we were going to do a baseball game. So, I went home and pretended I was asleep for the Muggle I was staying with's sake. We snuck out that night and I watched them play. I was super clumsy when I was Muggle, just part of the act. Then, Alice had a vision. Some nomads were coming and they didn't have enough time to get me out. This coven drank humans, so I was in danger, again. They came and were about to leave when the wind blew and my hair moved. My scent hit James. James was pretty handsome, I must say. Not as good looking as Fred or Draco, but better than Edward. Anyway, James was a tracker and he started to track me. I had to leave the Muggle and we went to Phoenix.

"James followed me there and told me he had the Muggle that posed as my mother. I didn't want her to die, so I traded my life for her. I went to the ballet studio and he tricked me, telling me that my mother wasn't there. I left my wand in Forks while we were on the run, so I didn't have a way to defend myself. He threw me into the wall, breaking some ribs and snapped my leg. What made it worse, was that he was filming this. He bit my arm just as Edward came." I showed her the scar from the bite. "Edward threw him off me and the rest of the family came. Carlisle and Alice went to me immediately and they started to stop the bleeding in my leg where some glass. The venom was spreading and Edward sucked the venom out. He barely stopped, and when he did, I was hospitalize for bloodloss and my broken bones.

"I went back to Forks, much to Edward's pleads for me to leave my own home because he didn't want me to be where his family would put me in danger."

"Wait. So let me get this straight. He wanted you to move out of YOUR home so he could live in HIS home so that he wouldn't put you in danger?"

I nodded, "Exactly. He wanted me to leave my 'father'"I used air quotes, "Whom I suposedly only saw for two weeks a year, to live with my 'mum' whom I lived with for my entire life."

She laughed, "That is so mean! He wanted you to leave your Muggle guy heartbroken so he could live happily!"

I laughed, "Yeah, so then in September, it was my birthday. I pretended to be eighteen but I was really celebrating my fifteenth. So, Alice threw a party, which I really didn't want. When we got there, it was beautiful. There were flowers and cake and banners. I was happy for the first time I was Muggle. I opened a present and got a paper cut, causing Jasper to lose control because he feels emotions and he felt the entire families blood lust. So he started after me but Edward threw me into a wall and I got glass plates in my arm. That sent everyone into a frenzy. Carlisle got to me and stopped the bleeding as best he could while the family got out. Carlisle doesn't smell blood anymore, so he works in the hospital and what not. Anyway, Carlisle stitched my arm up and told me stories about Edward's real mother.

"That night, the family moved and Edward stayed behind to break up with me three days later. He left me in the middle of the woods saying, basically, I was some toy to him and that the only reason I should be alive is so that Charlie, the Muggle posing as my father, doesn't get depressed. I wanted to shout and tell him that Charlie wasn't my real father, but it didn't really work that way. I wrote Dumbledore and told him that the family left. He said to stay to see if they come back after a while and by about ten days ago, they didn't. I apparated here and saw the Cullen's for the first time in months the same day you got here. That was why you saw me shout at him, because he still thinks I love him, which I told him I feel the same as I always did. Absolutely nothing. So, when Fred kissed me, I realized that I had the man I wanted to be with with me all along."

Bellatrix smiled, "My little girl finally has found love!"

I giggled. "Yes. Yes, I think I have. Now, mother, anything you want to ask?"

"You made amends with the family?"

"Everyone expect for Edward."

"You like the family."

"Everyone except for Edward."

"Well, I must say, you must really hate him." Bellatrix laughed. I nodded.

"He would control me and tell me what to do and when to do it. Whenever I hung out with Alice or Emmett too much, he would say that we were leaving and I wouldn't get a choice. The only way to break his decision was to have Alice beg. Then, I would only get to hang out with Alice or Esme. He was controlling my life and my life can't be controlled or I fight back."

Bellatrix nodded, "I figured that much out when I first met you."

I smiled, "Looks like we know a lot about eachother."

We talked some more and then everyone was back. It was passed dinner time, so we had a late dinner. Fred was waiting for me outside my door.

"I missed you." He said. I smiled.

"I missed you, too." I stood up on my tippy-toes and kissed him lightly on the lips. My mother chose then to walk out. She gave a squeal of delight and ran off. Fred pulled away, laughing.

"How was your day?"

I groaned, "Long. I ran into Malfoy and Narcissa. Narcissa knew who I was as soon as I introduced myself and Draco was still shocked to see me talking to her. Then, I made amends with Rosalie. How was your day?"

He chuckled, "Well, Edward tried to kill me, but I told him that Bella wouldn't like it if he killed me. He stopped immediately and ran off. We haven't seen him since."

I laughed, "I would deeply regret it if Edward harmed you at all, Mr. Weasley. You should know that more than anyone. I will personally kill him if he harms a single hair on you head." I ran my fingers through his soft hair. He ran his fingers through my still wet hair.

"You look even more beautiful when you are wet."

I laughed, "Don't you dare get me wet on a daily basis then."

He chuckled and threw me over his should, my wet hair hanging down and nearly touching the floor. I giggled when he would start to walk into a wall. The people that were sitting in the living room saw me in this position and laughed. I giggled.

"Fred, put me down! Put me down!" I giggled louder. I heard a feral growl and I was riped out of Fred's grasp. I knew it was Edward.

"Edward, what the hell? Can't I have some fun!?" I said to him. Fred had his wand out and pointed at Edward. I stood beside Fred, using my own wand and pointing it at Edward. "You can't stand to see me like this Edward because your jealous. Well, Mike Newton would have been better than you. I wish Mike was the vampire instead of you. That's why you were jealous of Mike, because he was more of a man than you."

I knew he heard me, because his eyes flashed to mine and they were livid. "How the hell did Mike get in this conversation?" I laughed, because that was the same words he used on me so long ago. Oh, the irony.

"Because Mike Newton would have been a better choice of a boyfriend than you." I said. Fred looked at me, sad. I kissed him on the cheek. "Don't worry. I never loved Mike either. Edward would always compare himself to some kid that was way weird for my taste. You are my only man."

Fred kissed my cheek and then I faced Edward again. "Do you want to go back to Mike and ask him what was so appealing about me? Maybe you could learn some things from him."

Rose came up behind me and I gave her a high-five. "You know, I may not have really liked you when you were with Edward, but I have to say, that was pretty awesome right there. Mike never really got over me either."

I laughed, lowering my wand. "You will not touch a hair on any of my friends heads ever again. I heard what happened today and if you would have killed Fred, you would have me to answer to."

Edward gulped and ran out of the room. "He better not be in Gryfindor, he doesn't have any courage."

Fred laughed and pulled me close. "He is. The entire family is in Gryffindor." I groaned.

"My life couldn't get any worse. God is probably gasping for air, he's laughing so hard."

Fred smiled and hugged me into his chest. He and I walked to the dining room and I sat right next to him, my mother right next to me, and Harry next to Fred. Molly served us a small dinner because most people ate at the Leaky Cauldron. So, it was just sandwiches. The boys were going shopping tomorrow, so the girls could sleep in. We finished eating and we all sat in the living room, chatting about Christmas. I was on Fred's lap the entire time and I was aware of Edward's glare. I yawned and made my way upstairs, aware that Fred followed me. I stopped at my door and turned around to face him.

"Your outfit shows it all off," Fred said. I laughed. Fred was still in his pajamas from this morning.

"Yours are the same. Very nice." He had a shirt on and green pants.

"Yes, I know. I was a model in Yew Nork."

I laughed, "It's New York, New York."

Fred rolled his eyes. "I knew that, I was just testing you."

I pecked him on the lips. "Of course you did."

I went into my room and changed into my Christmas pajamas that had the words Christmas in big white letters all over them. I laughed as I put them on.

I walked outside and saw Fred lean against the wall. He saw my pajamas and laughed, "Those are definitely the best Pajamas I've ever seen."

"Wait till you see the ones for tomorrow." I winked. He gulped. I noticed his pajamas were different. He had striped green and red ones on. His shirt was the same.

"I'm guessing they are lovely?"

I nodded, "As lovely as they can get."

He smiled and grabbed my hand, running up to his room. I was giggling the entire way.

"I feel like some school girl that is being kidnapped from the prinical's office." I laughed.

Fred looked at me and smirked. "You are some school girl and you are being whisked away from your ex-boyfriends eyes."

I smiled and Fred opened his door to find George already in his bed, looking at us.

"You better not get all lovey dovey tonight."

I rolled my eyes. "Apparently, you aren't here when that happens." I looked at Fred. He was smirking. "We get lovey dovey all night, every night."

George groaned and Fred and I laughed. Fred and I climbed into his bed and he snuggled me close. I faced the wall this time and he wound his arm around me. I used my arm and turned around, facing Fred's blue eyes. I smiled and kissed him on the chest, where I rested my head. I heard him give a sigh, and it sounded happy.

"I love you, Bella." He whispered in my ear.

I moved my head to face him, "I love you too." I murmured against his lips. I kissed him for a long moment and then went back to my previous position where I was leaning on his chest. I fell asleep easily that night, and stayed asleep.
