"What's up Derek?" Amy asked. I wonder what this is about...did I fail a test...no definitely not. Did I get in trouble with a teacher...no, I've been good this year - although I guess Snape doesn't always need a reason for putting people in detention. Did something happen to my family...Oh gosh; I hope it's not that one...

'Here's a letter for you Miss Amy"

She slowly took it from him and said, "Thank you, Derek" Then he slowly walked off.

As soon as he was out of earshot Ron started laughing, "Oooo Miss Amy, it sounds like someone has a crush on you."

"Ugh, Ron, grow up." He still kept laughing. Amy just stared at her letter, please not have bad news. Please not have bad news.

"Well are you going to open it?" Harry asked.

'Yeah, I'm just a little nervous..."

"Here let me see that." Ron said as he ripped it out of her hands. And to Amy's surprise, he started laughing again. "Oh believe me; you don't have to be afraid"

"How do you know?"

"Because the letter is from Fred." Whew, that was a relief to hear, but what did he want to say. I mean, I'm not mad at them anymore, I understand why they did what they did. But I guess I was a little mean to him...alright well here goes nothing. She took the letter from Ron and opened it.

Dear Amy,

I am sorry for everything that I put you through. Believe me, I did not want to cause you pain. You are one of my best friends, and I would never ever want to hurt you like that. But, George and I had to do it. We were going crazy in that joint and we just needed to get out. I just wanted to let you know that even though I'm not there, I am always here for you. Whatever you want to talk about - I don't care...We could talk about friends, classes, teachers, Oliver (yes, I'll even listen to that for you), whatever you choose. Just please let me know that I haven't lost my best friend.

Love always,

Fred

Wow I didn't know I treated him that badly. I was just overreacting, I mean, my best friend kind of just got up and left me...but of course he is still my best friend ever. She looked at her watch. She saw that she still had enough time to send a letter to Fred. "Alright you guys I am going to send a letter real quick, and then I will meet you down at the Quidditch Pitch."

Amy started to leave when Harry asked, "Well what did the letter say?"

"Oh, that he was sorry that he just left, and he feels bad that he hurt me, and wants to know if we are still friends."

"Oh, ok...well that was uneventful."

"What?" she asked him, not fully listening.

"Oh nothing...go finish your letter, and I'll see you at the pitch." She said bye and walked away. That was a weird comment, but I don't care. I have to get this note done quickly.

Hermione, Harry, and Ron watched her leave. Hermione was curious about Harry's question and asked, "What did you mean by that, Harry?"

"Oh I just thought he was finally going to tell her his true feelings, but I guess not."

"Well, he probably just wanted to make sure that they were still friends before he told her of his undying love for her." Ron joked.

"Yeah, yeah, whatever" Harry replied, "Let's go down to the pitch."

(Fred's Point of View)

Finally, George and I finally got out of that hole. And I can't believe it, we are finally opening a joke shop! Mum is not going to be to pleased, but hey we are adults now and can do what we want. That whole day went perfect...almost. He laughed as he thought of Umbridge running around like crazy trying to fix the mess, and of how Peeves actually saluted them. "Give her hell for us" he muttered. The only thing that bothered him was how Amy responded. I mean, she should have known that George and I were going to go sometime. She knew that we weren't happy. I know that she shouldn't be mad at us, but I keep thinking of our final words together..."There's nothing for you here? Not your friends, your family, not me?" That's what's killing me. How could she think that...she is probably the most important person to me besides my family. But, of course I know… well she doesn't know that because I've never told her. That's true...I have always hid my feelings from her. I almost told her, but then that whole thing with Oliver went down. Oliver...just thinking about him makes me mad. He better not harm her in anyway otherwise he is going to pay.

I need to tell Amy. I need to tell her once and for all how I feel. I'm going to write her a letter right now...Fred took a long time to write this letter; he wanted it to be perfect...it had to be perfect. This is what he came up with.

Dear Amy,

We have been best friends for a long time now, and I want you to know that I never had any intentions to hurt you like I did. I am sorry for everything that I put you through. There is something that I need to get out though. This may seem a little rushed, but I have to tell you. You have bewitched me body and soul, and I love you. I can't tell you how long I have felt this way. You are my best friend, and I wouldn't want to jeopardize our friendship in any way, but I had to say something. Every day and every night, I fight this feeling, but try as I might, I can't win. It seems like you have captured my heart and my heart can not escape from your grasp. I know this is a lot to take, but I had to tell you. You deserve to know, to know how much you mean to me...meeting you was fate, becoming your friend was choice, falling in love with you was beyond my control.

Love always,

Fred

I can't believe I'm actually going to send this.

Fred took one last look at the letter. I am going to do it. I am going to send this letter. Fred headed for the door, but before he could get out, his brother George walked in. "What are you doing?" He asked.

"Oh nothing" Fred said while trying to conceal the paper.

"Whatcha got there?" George said, obviously not being fooled. Fred didn't answer. He didn't know how to answer. "Alright, give it to me." Fred tried to protest, but George just pulled it out of his hands. He quickly read it over, "Finally you are going to tell her how you feel!"

"So you think I should send it?"

"Of course I do, in fact why don't you do it now."

"No, its ok. I can do it after we talk about our new premises." The two boys started talking about their financial situation, thanks to Harry, everything was going to be ok. After George left, Fred looked back at the letter. Now he started to get second thoughts...what if this ruins our friendship, I think I would die if she said no to this. What if she thinks its corny, or what if she thought it was a joke. If she rejected me...that would..."I don't even want to think about that" No, I'm not going to do it. I can't send her this letter. I'm just going to write another one, apologizing for what I have done, and letting her know that I will always be here for her.

Fred quickly started to write the new letter which ended up not taking to long. He didn't even read it over, he just sent it. No damage, definitely there will be no damage. He looked at his first letter, and put it in a drawer for safe-keeping. Maybe one day I will need that letter...

Thanks for reading!!
