So I decided to stop with the whole Ron business..for now :) I might continue in during their 7th year or something :)) I am not sure
Everybody in the burrow woke up at the crack of dawn for the Quidditch Cup. Hermione was standing near the bathroom across they hall. She had been waiting for her turn for nearly ten minutes now. Thinking it was Ginny inside, she began pounding on the door. "Hurry up! You're taking so long!" To her great surprise, it was Mrs. Weasley who came out. "I'm so sorry Mrs. Weasley! I thought you were Ginny! I'm so so so so sorry"
"It's alright Hermione" Molly said with a motherly smile. "And I'm sorry for barging in like that last night. I should've knocked first" she added, a bit embarrassed and turning red in the face.
"I..er...uh..umm" Hermione was now blushing profusely as well. She scratched her head while trying to think of an almost decent answer which didn't come.
"I should probably go now" she said when the silence became too long and awkward. Hermione began hitting her head as soon as Molly was out of sight "You're a bloody idiot, you know?" she muttered to herself.
"Do you have everything you need?" Mrs. Weasley asked and they all nodded. They were going to trek to the portkey to get to the Quidditch Cup. All of the Weasleys were going except for Molly,Ginny and Percy, who had work. They all said their goodbyes and left the burrow. It was a beautiful and everyone was buzzing. Even Hermione, who knew close to nothing about Quidditch players and strategies.
They had saw quite number of people from Hogwarts when they were at they Quidditch Cup.
"Damn! You two are still together?" Seamus Finnigan said when he saw Fred and Hermione holding hands. Hermione just laughed and Fred grinned.
Setting up the tent was the hardest part of the whole trip. Arthur had suggested the do it the muggle way which means no magic. It was a good thing Hermione was there or it might've taken them hours just to figure out what part goes where.
"Oh Hermione what would we do without you?" George said and kissed her on her cheek. Fred shot him a glare
"Keep your hands of my girlfriend" Fred said with a laugh but his voice was hard. He pulled Hermione closer to him and wrapped his arms tightly around her. George slapped him on the back and laughed.
"Careful Hermione, Fred is the jealous type, very jealous type"
"Nah, I'm not jealous. Especially since Hermione knows I'm the better looking twin"
"Hmmm...I'm not so sure Fred" Hermione said jokingly. Fred gasped and his eyes became wide
"Tell me you're kidding. Please tell me you're kidding!" It sounded half serious and half joking
"Duh Fred" she said and rolled her eyes at him. Fred let out a small sigh of relief. Fred kissed her lightly on the lips and she grinned from ear to ear
"The sweetness in this tent is sickening" George shuddered and made fake gagging noises. He was about to leave the tent when he spotted Ludo Bagman near by. "Fred! Fred! Would you stop snogging for one second and pay attention to me!" George screamed. Fred didn't even take his eyes off of Hermione's "Seriously Fred?" George dragged Fred away from Hermione "You! Go away! You're distracting my brother"
"Please stay Hermione, this will only take awhile. I promise" He left the tent with George. "What's up? And please make it quick" George rolled his eyes
"Ludo Bagman" was all he said. Fred smiled mischievously. "What's our bet?"
"I'm pretty sure Bulgaria would lose" Fred started
"But Krum would catch the snitch" George said and they nodded at each other. They began counting their galleons, sickles and knuts. It was Ludo Bagman who approached them.
"Are you also betting boys?" he asked. He was already holding several bags of coins and parchments with different names and bets. The twins nodded
"Bulgaria would lose but Viktor Krum will be the one to catch the snitch" George said and Ludo laughed, as if he knew he already won this bet.
"Your names are?"
"Fred and George Weasley" Fred gave him their bag of coins and Ludo listed down their names.
"See after the game then boys" he said and left to bet with other people.
"Our bet is quite risky isn't it?" Fred asked. George scoffed and waved his hand dismissively.
"We'll win, I'm sure"
"ARE YOU INSANE?' Hermione shrieked. They were back at the burrow and at Fred and George's room. The twins were sitting down on the bed and Hermione was pacing in front of them. They were right, Bulgaria lost but Krum caught the snitch but Ludo left as soon they game ended. Apparently, he owed other people a lot of money and dissapparated as fast as he can when they were looking for him. Fred and George had given all of their savings and Hermione was the only one who knew. If Molly found out, she would literally kill them.
"Look Hermione, we didn't know that it was going to end up that way" George explained
"And that's why we need your help" Hermione glared at both of them with her arms crossed in a perfect imitation of Molly Weasley. She thought for a long while
"Fine I'll help you" Fred stood up and hugged her
"You're the best Hermione!" George exclaimed "So..what do we do?"
"I don't know yet to be honest"
"But we can't earn money in school. We already got caught once" George said. Hermione furrowed her eyebrows. "And we have to do it in like a muggle place or something. Mum might catch us if we do it in Diagon Alley" They sat in silence
"I've got it!" Hermione snapped her fingers and stood up
"What did you get?"
"We do something like a cupcake stand!" It was the perfect plan: They don't have to do it in Hogwarts. They don't have to do it in a wizarding place. Hermione knew how to bake
"Great! When can we start?"
"Well we can bake tonight and sell them tomorrow. It would be easy enough to set up some tables and some sort of sign. And we can do it in a park!"
"You're brilliant Hermione!" Fred beamed
After dinner, Fred, George and Hermione began baking cupcakes. It was all very simple really but Fred and George can't understand what to do. Charlie came bounding down the stairs
"You guys are baking?"
"We're hungry" Fred said and Charlie just shrugged it off.
"I need George's help with the gumball thing you invented. I did on a friend and the effects won't come off" he said and George grumbled. He had to do this now? Charlie dragged him out of the kitchen and disapperated with a pop. George mouthed something like "I'm sorry" before he left
"Guess it's just you and me then" Hermione said. Fred really couldn't concentrate on baking. with Hermione looking so pretty like that. Fred was feeling quite mischievous that time and decided to wipe the cupcake batter on Hermione's face. Her mouth formed and o
"You're gonna get it Fred Weasley" she said and began getting blobs of the batter and throwing it and Fred. He tried to avoid them but Hermione had a pretty good aim. Soon they were running around the burrow, throwing frosting and batter and each other. Fred tripped on something when they were at they garden. Hermione ran to check if he was okay.
"Are you alright?' she asked, worried. Fred then sat up and dumped what remained of the batter on Hermione's head. Hermione giggled and lay down on the grass. Fred laid down beside her.
"You know, this was the best summer of my life, and it's all because of you" she said and looked at him. He took her hand in his and kissed her softly
"Mine too" And somehow they felt asleep in the garden with Fred's arm around her and Hermione snuggled up to him.
George surveyed the kitchen when he got back. "Guess we'll have to sell products at Hogwarts then" he said to himself when he saw the empty bowls and the batter and frosting on the walls and floor.
