Hey guys, sorry I haven't updated in a while but I kind of just write when an idea pops into my head and that hasn't happened in a while. So this is just like a random weekend at the start of Hermione's 5th year. I'm not entirely sure how I feel about it. I had this great idea but then it started changing as I was writing. The main idea of it stayed, but the way it happened just...changed. I don't know. Maybe I'll try and rewrite it when I get a chance. What would help is if you guys reviewed and tell me what you think:).

Disclaimer: I do not own a single thing.

Enjoy!

"Hey Fred," Katie said in that sickeningly, fake, sweet voice Fred hated. He had been sitting in the common room with George and Lee looking over things for their joke shop when she just walked up and sat next to him.

He only glanced at her before looking back at the parchment in his hands.

"What're you guys doing?" she asked with fake interest. Fred knew she thought their joke shop idea was completely ridiculous, when they were younger she would say how they should get real jobs and not waste their time on silly dreams. He knew she was only pretending to be interested in the joke shop hoping he would notice her. What he didn't know was how she could possibly think he would actually fall for her act let alone notice her. Was she really that daft?

"Work," he said simply without sparing a glance in her direction.

"What kind of work?" she giggled. God, he couldn't stand her fakeness. He really wished Hermione was here, her presence always calmed him down, but she was off somewhere with Harry and Ron. Probably trying to get them to study for O.W.L.S already.

"Look Katie, do you mind leaving?" he asked annoyed. "We're really busy and we can't have any distractions."

"So I'm a distraction?" she giggled again fluttering her eyelashes. Who knew she could multitask like that, certainly not Fred.

"An annoying one yes," he snapped.

"You know you don't mean that," she whispered sweetly in his ear. "Do you think you could take just a teensy little break from that silly thing and go for a walk out on the grounds with me?"

"No, I don't think I can," he said finally looking up to glare at her. "I told you, we're busy."

"Alright," she said brightly, completely ignoring his anger. "Another time then."

Katie walked down to the grounds where she knew she was. She had to talk to her. She had to tell her what was going on. She had to tell her not to mess with her.

She finally found that mop of horribly, ugly, bushy, brown hair sitting by the lake with her two friends. How she managed to get friends at all was beyond Katie. She walked over to them and put on that fake, sweet smile once more.

"Hey, Harry, Ron, Hermione," she said brightly. They all replied. "Hermione, do you mind coming with me for a moment?"

"Er...alright, I guess," Hermione said uncertainly getting up to follow the other girl towards the edge of the forest.

Katie stopped just short of the forest where no one would be able to hear them talking. She turned to face Hermione, the smile sliding of her face, in it's place the meanest glare she could muster, causing Hermione to take a step back, not expecting this.

"Look," she said shortly. "Let's get on thing clear. Fred's mine. Has been since I met him. So you need to back off. He just pities you. Don't really like you. I'm surprised this 'relationship' has gone on as long as it has. Too long if you ask me. It's going to end. Whether you like it or not. I always get what I want. No matter what it takes."

As taken aback as Hermione was, she almost expected something like this. She vividly remembered Fred telling her at the Yule Ball last year that he had overheard Katie talking about her with a friend. Hermione wasn't afraid of her. She held her ground.

"I don't know what your problem is, but you obviously are as dumb as you look because Fred clearly doesn't like you. If he did he would have made it clear by now. He's not one to be shy or beat around the bush. I suggest you just leave him alone," Hermione snapped. She had no idea where that came from. She figured it was her Gryffindor courage.

She noticed that Katie was surprised by her boldness aw well, but she composed herself rather quickly and resumed glaring at her.

"My problem is you, Granger," she spat. "You have what I want, and I'm going to take it from you if it's the last thing I do."

"You're such a bitch" Hermione snapped at her.

Fred swore the only reason he was following Katie was because he didn't trust her. He had a feeling she was going to find Hermione and confront her. He knew Katie was after him and would get to him through her. He was afraid she would do something to hurt his Hermione.

He spotted Harry and Ron sitting by the lake and they told him the direction the two girls had gone. He walked quickly, hoping nothing had happened.

When he found them he noticed Hermione had said something, he couldn't hear what, that made Katie really angry. Angry enough to take a step towards her...Fred had never pulled out his want so fast in his whole life. Silently so they couldn't hear he cast a shield charm between the two, stopping Katie's advance towards Hermione.

Hermione's back had been to him so when he stood beside her and put his arm around her she jumped a bit but calmed down when she saw who it was.

"What's going on here?" he asked glaring at Katie for almost hurting, no touching his Hermione.

"Nothing at all," Katie said sliding back into her sweet facade smiling at Fred.

"Good," Fred said, not believing her for a second. "Then you won't mind if I steal my girlfriend away?"

He saw that Katie flinched when he put emphasis on the word 'girlfriend'.

"No, not at all," she said falsely brightly.

Fred removed the shield without Katie, or Hermione, noticing and, without removing his arm from around Hermione pulled her all the way to the castle, and to the boys dormitory before saying a word.

He locked the door and cast a silencing charm before turning to look at her.

"What happened?" he asked simply sitting beside her and putting his arm around her again.

"S-she..." Hermione couldn't bring herself to say it. She had left all her Gryffindor courage back on the grounds with Katie. "She said that she was going to steal you away from me and that she always got what she wanted.

"Well she's a spoiled, fake bitch," Fred said pulling her into his lap. "I love you 'Mione. She's not going to change that."

"W-what?" Hermione said pulling back a bit to look at him with wide eyes.

Fred realized what he said after he said it. He, of course, meant it, but he just never said it before. "I love you Hermione."

"I love you, too," Hermione said throwing her arms around her neck.

Fred buried his face in her hair, thrilled. He never expected her to say it back.

"So what did you say to Katie that made her want to hit you?" Fred mumbled into her hair.

"I called her a bitch," Hermione laughed.

"Good," Fred said leaning down to capture her lips with his.
