Fred stayed with me after that. Truly was thee beat present I got today. He shuffled himself closer to me and we sat an chatted about well nothing. That's what usually happens with us two.

I think I'll tell him tomorrow. I know I could be risking everything between the two of us but I just I can't keep it from him any more.

"I really wanna have some of that cake mum made for you. You want some?"

What was he thinking? Does he not know me? Oh dear!

"FRED!"

He threw his hands in the air and I smiled brushed a strand of hair that had fallen from my hair tie.

"Why do you even have to ask that? Do you actually not know me that well at all?"

"Won't be a minute then!"

I turned it the grass, and watched him charge through it. He had more ease than me as he was tall. The grass came up to his waist. With me I just had to kinda guess where I was going.

As predicted Fred came back, slightly out of breath and two slices of chocolate cake. Oh Mrs Weasley how I love you right now. At the bottom of the hill he grinned and held up the plates.

He's one of the craziest people I have ever met and the other being his brother. I just love it though. Takes the fun of life by the tail and BOOM you have the best time ever. I know for a fact that Mr and Mrs Weasley would never change them for the world. They do certainly keep them alert.

"Fred hurry up!" I cried and he laughed as dashed up the hill towards me. I turned back and looked over the many rolling fields again. Yes I live in a little town, I don't see all this... I only see all this when we drive towards London. It's stupid and unfair.

Soon a huge slice of chocolate cake floated in front of me. I grabbed the plate and looked at Fred. I was literally beaming.

"How'd your mum know I LOVEchocolate cake?"

"Ah my dear friend she does know how to use a quill, ink and parchment."

"What? No way I never knew that!" I joked and he smiled and picked up a bit of his cake and bit it. I had a feeling he wouldn't eat the whole thing though... That's what's starting to worry me.

As I said he didn't eat it all and neither did I which again is a huge shock I always eat chocolate. In stead I got it in my hair and it stained my white shirt. Fred's hair was a very dark brown now and I ran my hand through it on purpose and it stuck up on its ends and I laughed so hard my eyes became clouded with tears.

"My mum will kill us..." he mentioned and I grinned. Mrs Weasley wouldn't kill me on my Birthday. Plus she wouldn't want to make my father angry... He's scary when he's angry. It's all comes with being what we are...

"Hmm I don't think we are in this together my friend. You stole it and you started the fight. And it's a special day for me..."

"Damn you..." he mumbled and I rested my hand on his shoulder. He smiled softly and we sat in silence for hours just watching the sun set.


"We should get back... The oldies planned ya something for tonight." Fred said as he pulled my hair tie out of my hair, making it fall around my face and down my back.

"Why'd you do that?"

"I like it better down... And plus it was all falling out of this thing any way..." he said waving my hair tie around. I took it out of his hand and put it on my wrist, and brushed my hair back.

Fred stood up and held out his hand. This feels strangely familiar. I shrugged it off and grasped it being pulled up on my feet. I stumbled forward slightly and he caught me.

"You are really bad on your feet Charlie..." he joked and I looked down to hide the red in my cheeks. He then started laughing and I looked up.

"What?"

"You look terrible with chocolate all over your hair and you look like you've been rolling in mud."

"You are no better you should see your hair! It looks ridiculous."

I couldn't help myself and I burst into silent laughter. He joined in and God it melts you inside it's an amazing sound... Wow did I just say that? I've never said that before... Okay this is crazy.

He took my hand and dragged me through the grass and down the hill. We then ran through the field outside their home and wondered in through the door. We attempted to sneak upstairs but we were caught.

"FRED WEASLEY! CHARLIE BROWN LUPIN! WHAT ON EARTH HAPPENED TO YOU? ARTHUR? REMUS? KAYLEE?" screeched Mrs Weasley and me and Fred slowly turned round to see two angry mothers and two fathers that looked highly amused. Damn she is good at catching people out right when you don't want to be...

"You two look disgusting. What is this anyway?"

I froze and my violet eyes went wide as she proceeded forward towards us. Fred backed away and hit the wall.

"FRED WHERE DID YOU GET THE CAKE FROM? I SWEAR TO YOU IF YOU TAKEN SOME OF HER CAKE I WILL NEVER LET YOU GO ANYWHERE AGAIN! YOU HEAR ME?"

"Ye-yes mum... I'm sorry."

"Charlie dear go and get cleaned up. Ginny should have a spear T-shirt that'll fit you alright?"

"Yes Mrs Weasley." I said happily and dashed up the creaking wooden stairs.

"FIRST DOOR ON THE LEFT!" came her voice again and I ran to the first door on the left. I pushed it open and sighed. I shut the door behind me and locked it. I looked in the small mirror and prodded at the new scar.

I'm surprised he never saw it... Actually I'm surprised anyone never saw it! AM I BLOODY CRAZY! Why did I wear my hair up in the first place? I can't even remember why!

Anyway I turned on the shower and checked the water temperature with my hand. I shed my clothes and took off my necklace and took out my earrings. I then climbed in the warm shower.

I swear I'd been in the shower for at least an hour now. I couldn't get all the cake crumbs and chocolate out. I couldn't help but smile at the memory though. It was funny.


After about another half an hour I got all of the cake and chocolate out of my hair and felt satisfied. I turned off the water and grabbed a towel. There came a knock to the door and a small voice came through the wood.

"Charlie I have a T-shirt for you..."

"Coming."

I kept it wrapped tightly round me and unlocked the door. Ginny came into view. I smiled down at her and she passed up the T-shirt.

"Haply Birthday by the way."

"Thank you very much Ginny."

"Your welcome." she said nervously and ran down the hall and down the creaking stairs. I moved backwards and locked the door again. I dried myself and climbed into my clothes and dried my hair. I put my earrings back in and picked up my necklace. I stared at it for a moment.

I ran my fingers over the silver 'C' and then over the heart. I smiled slightly and closed my hand round it. I walked back downstairs and sighed.

"What's wrong my little wolf?"

"Nothing dad..." I said so unconvincingly I even mentally cursed myself. He looked at me and his eyes knew I was lying.

"Fine... Dad, I like someone yeah and you know who it is... But I don't want to risk hurting him, if I didn't get anywhere quick enough. What am I supposed to do?" I said and father looked around making sure no one was around before again kneeling in front of me so our eyes were level.

"You can't let this little problem get on the way of something as special as the feeling you have for someone. I know that you would never hurt someone Charlie. You do know if you tell your mother she will go on a rant?"

I smiled and hugged him tightly. He returned it and sighed pushing me back slightly.

"Just remember that you are still young... Both of you. Take your time to really think about the feelings you have. Other than that... Why not try it?" he said with a smile and kissed my forehead and he got up. "Come on everyone's outside.

"What?"

What's going on tonight?
