Fast forward to the summer before 4th year.

Hermione and Harry were at the burrow with the Weasleys. Harry had been there a couple of times but this was Hermione's first. She was still in awe of the house. Being muggle born, this was the first wizard's house she has ever been in. Hermione was quite scared at first because the burrow looked like it was going to fall over anytime but she soon realized it had spells and charms holding it together and decided it was safe. So far she had seen all of the rooms except for the Fred's and George's. Ginny's room was messy, The color of Ron's room hurt her eyes (the walls were bright orange and red) and Percy's room looked...like an office.

The twins together with Percy,Charlie (who was visiting from Romania) and Mr. and Mrs. Weasley were at Diagon Alley so it was just Ron,Harry,Ginny and Hermione. They were at At the living room playing exploding snap. Things were sort of awkward for Ron and Hermione at first. Ron still had feelings for Hermione and Hermione didn't know because she was as thick as hell. He didn't talk much and stammered whenever Hermione asked him a question. Harry and Ginny watched him carefully. Ginny glanced at Harry and raised her eyebrows and Harry nodded and she understood and looked at her brother almost piteously.

It was evident that nobody was really paying attention to the game. Hermione's thought were on Fred, Ron's thoughts were on Hermione and Harry and Ginny were having a silent conversation.

When they heard voices coming from the other room signaling the return of the rest of the Weasleys, Hermione jumped to her feet and ran to the fireplace. Fred's face lit up when he saw her and dropped all the bags he was holding. He picked her up and spun her around. George and Charlie were chuckling, Molly and Arthur were looking at each other as if remembering the times when they were exactly like Fred and Hermione and Ginny was smiling. Ron tried to but it looked more like a grimace.

"I think we should probably go" Charlie said. They left the room. Ginny and George tried to eavesdrop but Molly had caught them and yanked them out of the room.

"I missed you" Fred whispered into her hair. They still haven't let go of each other.

"I missed you too. A lot" she grinned at him and kissed his cheek

"Well, I haven't seen you in a month so I've decided to never let you out of my sight"

"Sounds good to me" He entwined his fingers with hers and kissed her forehead


Dinner that night was terrible and awkward for Ron. He had to listen to his own siblings and mother talk about how perfect they were and how fucking adorable they look. But the most awkward part of the dinner was when Charlie spoke

"To be honest, I always thought it would be Ron and Hermione." Arthur nodded in agreement and Ginny and Harry began looking at their food as it had suddenly become the most interesting thing on earth.

"What? Ron is like a brother to me!" she exclaimed and laughed. That was the most terrible part. He knew of course that he had no chance with Hermione. None. Nada. Zilch. But that didn't stop the words from hurting him.

"Yeah" was all he managed to say. Thankfully, they began talking about other topics and Ron was able to think without anybody interrupting him.

As he lay on his bed that night, he made a decision. He was going to let her go. He can't stop himself from still liking her, that is impossible. But he would let her go. Even if seeing them together feels like an anvil dropped on his heart. (Okay so I'll stop with the sad, angsty, Ron part of the story here and focus on Fred and Hermione from now on :D)


"You have to go to bed early. You have to wake up at dawn tomorrow" Mrs. Weasley said. They were going to watch the International Quidditch Championships. Hermione really couldn't see what the big deal was about but Fred and all of the other Weasley males were ecstatic. Even Arthur. "Go to your rooms now. I'll be checking in 10 minutes okay?"

"Yes Mrs. Weasley!" they chorused.

"Oh and Fred? Don't go sneaking into the girl's room late at night. You and Hermione both need to get some sleep" she said. They both blushed and promised they would go to sleep immediately.

"Wait, you haven't seen my room yet right?" Hermione didn't get a chance to reply because Fred was already pulling her up the stairs.

The twins' room was quite nice. George's side of the room had different posters of Quidditch players and team and looked very Gryffindor with the red bed and walls. Fred's side was a bit toned down. It had white walls but had picture of him and George or with his parents or brothers (and sister) and also picture of the two of them. And there were drawings tacked to it.

"I like your wall" she said and she meant it. "I wanna do something like that in my room"

"Really? It was hard trying to decide what pictures to put so I just put anything I could find" it was a tedious job to do. Fred had to collect pictures and arrange them and had to ask his mom to put charms so it won't fall off. It was worth it though. He had to admit, he did a pretty good job.

"Your room is amazing. It's beautiful"

"You're beautiful" he said cheekily and smirked at her. Hermione just grinned at him then kissed him on the lips. Soon they were full out snogging. Hermione's fingers laced with his hair and Fred had pulled her up closer to him.

"Ahem" Hermione and Fred pulled away and saw none other than Molly Weasley staring at them and bright red "I'll give you some time to say good night and I expect both of you to go to bed immediately" she said and ran out of the room. Fred and Hermione started giggling.

"Night love"

"Good night" and with one last kiss Hermione left. And all Fred could think about was how lucky he was to meet a girl like her


I know this chapter was kind of pointless but I thought the Ron thing needed closure :) Do you guys think I should writes more about Ron or was the part where he decided to let her go closure enough? Please review :)
