After the huge display that afternoon, Fred went upstairs. He needed
to be alone. He needed to think. Dinner will be ready in an hour or so. But
unlike any other day, he's dreading the time to go to dinner. He's certain
that Angelina is still angry with him. He didn't feel very hungry all of a
sudden. He's nervous. He's never seen that side of Angelina before.
'I have to make it up to her,' he said to himself, while staring at her picture. 'Oh! I know!' with that, he jumped off his bed and got ready for dinner. =========
'Hey, Lee!' Katie said while waving her hand and asking him to come to her.
'Hey there, gorgeous! What does my princess want this time?' Lee said while smirking.
'Oh, gee! Thanks!' Katie said while smiling. 'Look, Angelina is really upset with Fred. I think that she's had enough. I don't think that--- '
'Hey! What are you talking about?' George asked.
'Go away! Can't you see that we are having a decent conversation here?!' Lee snapped.
'But. I'm your best friend! You can't just shoo me away like some--- Fly!' George said pretending to be hurt and then he winked at Katie.
'Hey! She's mine! Buzz off!' Lee shouted. 'So what is it again, princess?'
'Stop it you two! Here goes, and by the way you can stay George. Alicia will be talking to you about this anyway.' Katie said looking annoyed. 'Look, you both better be nice to Angelina. She's really upset with Fred. I think that this will last longer than usual. She---'
'Nah! I doubt it!' George said looking bored. 'Angelina loves Fred. She can't stay that way. We all know that. I don't even know what she saw in him. Well aside from his good looks, you know what I mean.'
'Yuck!' Alicia said while smiling.
'I doubt it. Anyway, George will you let me----' Katie said.
'Fine you two can go away! My QUEEN is here now!' George snapped at Lee.
'Will you shut the hell up?! Katie has been talking and she hasn't been able to finish since you keep on interrupting! Damn it!' Lee shouted looking really annoyed now.
'Look you two! Behave will you! Please!' Alicia said.
'Nobody will talk unless I'm finished. Angelina. You both better be nice to her. She's not quite fond of you two right now.' Katie said and then she looked at George. 'Especially, you. Well you can't blame her. You look like Fred.'
'ME?! What the hell did I do?! It's not my fault I look A LITTLE like my brother! In case you don't know, we are twins! Does this mean that she hates Ron and Ginny and Percy and Bill and Charlie and Mom and Dad?! I think that you should warn them too!' George screamed while shaking his head in disbelief.
'SHUUUUT UP, BIG MOUTH! I'm going to hex that mouth of yours so you'll shut up!' Lee yelled and pulled his wand out.
'YOU hex him, I'll hex YOU!' said Alicia, stepping in front of George. This made Lee go behind Katie.
'Look! Calm down you two! George and Lee, come on!' Katie yelled.
'George, if you open that mouth of yours again, unless it's time to talk, I will hex you myself,' said Alicia.
'Alicia, it's ok! Really, no need for that.' Katie said and then she glared at Lee. 'Look, she's really upset and she, well, wants to teach Fred a lesson.'
'She even asked us if we can, er--- break up with you two. Well just for awhile, she said.' Alicia said while looking uncomfortably at George. George raised his right hand. This made the two girls chuckle while Lee just rolled his eyes. Alicia nodded to let him know that he may speak.
'Well, well, well! What has gotten into her? I think that she's crazy! No offense. I'm going to talk to her. She doesn't have any right to ask you such favours!' George shouted while looking at Alicia. 'Oh great! Now I get it!'
'Bloody hell?! What the heck did you say then? Oh great! So you are breaking up with me? Some friend she is! I'm going with you George! I'll go talk to her. I'll make her see sense!' Lee yelled while forcing himself to calm down.
'Stop it!' Katie yelled as he grabbed Lee's and George's robes. 'No! We are not breaking up with you! So, quit it!'
'We are just telling you the latest scoops, alright?' Katie said.
'Latest scoop on what?' Angelina asked. 'I really think that we should be heading down to dinner.'
'Oh, Angelina,' said Lee awkwardly. He immediately stepped in front of George and conjured a tall and huge hat over his head to cover George's face.
'Oh, no need for that Lee. Really. I'm fine. Actually, never better.'
Lee stepped aside while George conjured a bouquet of flowers and handed it to Angelina.
'Here, flowers for you. From Lee and I'
'Gee, thanks!' said Angelina while smiling reluctantly upon seeing George's face. 'Let's go down, shall we?' ===========
'Oh! Holy crap!' Fred said nervously. 'Angelina, I'm sorry. I know that I've said sorry to you a million times already. I also know that there is absolutely no excuse for my behaviour, but.'
'Practicing your line to get some girl back? Johnson, to be exact?' Malfoy said while grinning mischievously.
'Shut up Malfoy!'
'Oi, Johnson! Go away! Weasley's not ready yet! He's still practicing his line! He wants you back by the way! Come back a little later!'
Fred went pale and jumped backwards. He slowly turned around. and there she was. walking with Alicia and Katie. She didn't even look at him. He saw Malfoy grinning at him. He didn't do anything. He didn't feel like doing anything. He just went inside and sat beside Percy.
'What do you want, Fred?' Percy asked. 'If it's one of your stupid jokes again, I don't have time for that.' Fred looked in Angelina's direction and shrugged.
'She isn't talking to me, won't even look at me. I don't know what to do Perce.'
'Say sorry, you prat! Admit that you are wrong. Act like the dumbest person there is. not that you really have to act.'
'You prat! What the heck? You deaf or something?! I told you! She won't talk to me! What do you mean by that---that I don't have to act?'
'Ron! I am not having this conversation with you! You are completely hopeless!!!' Hermione yelled. 'You---are---IMPOSSIBLE!'
'Huh! You are not having this conversation with me? I AM NOT HAVING THIS CONVERSATION WITH YOU!' Ron yelled back then immediately sat on the other side of Percy.
'What the heck? You too? Oh God almighty! Help me! Have mercy on me! I'm trying to have a good dinner here.. Oh for heaven's sake. Here comes two more!'
'Why, why, why are we? Living in a world, world, world so cruel?' George began singing then Lee began to rap.
'Why is everybody fighting?' George asked.
'Ron and Hermione are always fighting. Nothing's really new with these two.' Harry said while smiling teasingly to Ron.
'What the hell? Why are you smiling at me like that?'
'Nothing, nothing, nothing.'
'Hermione! You know what, being friends, having arguments.. Awwww! That's how Fred and Angelina started out! Always fighting then laughing together again.' Lee said then Hermione began to blush.
'Lee! Shut up!' Ron yelled, whose ears are beginning to turn red as well.
'Blushing are we?' George said, smiling mischievously. Percy smiled with this comment, too.
'Hey, Percy. You are smart so I'm taking your word for this ok. I'll talk to Angelina, then?'
'Good that you've came to your senses. I know I'm smart. no need to tell me. Anyway, you have to mean every word that you say. You have to MEAN it. Tell the truth. if everything that you are feeling in there is right and is for Angelina. nothing should go wrong. You have to hurry up, though. Angelina is considered to be one of the prettiest girls here at Hogwarts. Before you know it. she may be taken already' Percy said while looking at him seriously.
'What? Taken? By who? We are still together. We haven't broken up.'
'Sure. Suit yourself. Whatever you say. I have to get going now though,' Percy said. 'I still have to finish some papers about my Hogwarts report. My boss has been harassing me about it already.'
'Hey, hey, hey! So what do we have here?' Ron said while looking at Angelina's direction. George, Lee and Harry looked at her direction. 'Someone's approaching her from 12 o' clock.'
'Who's that?' Harry asked.
Fred wasn't really listening. He was busy thinking of the words that he has to say to her. He then came into his senses when Ron knocked on his head. I am going to get her back. I am going to be the best boyfriend there is. I am going to get her back. Oh, God. Please, help me get her back.
'Hello? Anybody home?' Ron said.
'What! Can't you see that I'm thinking?' Fred snapped, looking annoyed. Please help me get her back.
'12 o' clock,' Ron said. Fred looked and his eyes suddenly narrowed.
The guy now is behind Angelina, tapping her on the back. Angelina looked at the tall man behind him then invited him to sit down. This made Fred's face fell.
'Now, there goes your competition Fred and there's a lot more actually,' said Lee. 'That man has been hitting on Angelina for a long time. In case you don't know. many people find her rather attractive.'
'I know ok! What about that guy? He's taking advantage of her being angry with me, huh!' Fred said while still staring at Angelina and the boy beside her.
'You, do? Well, you have a funny way of showing it. Anyway, I saw him once. No, actually, twice.' Lee said. 'I just thought that you should know.'
'What do you mean "funny way of showing it"? So hitting on her, you say.' His eyes was still on Angelina but quickly looked away when he saw her gaze in his direction. 'She's looking! She's looking! Come on! Let's laugh!' They all immediately laughed upon hearing Fred's request.
'I want you to find more information concerning this idiot, ok! I need to know how that mind of his works!' Fred said and gazed at her direction once more. 'I will be needing all the help that I can get. What the hell? She's, she's flirting with him!' Upon seeing her reaching for the man's hand. something inside began to hurt. =========
'Hey, Nick!' said Angelina, smiling brightly at him. Thank you God for making him hit on me!!!! I need him right now!!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you! Please make other people hit on me too!!!!
'Hey! I know that you must still be really upset. I heard about it.'
'Gee, news travels fast!'
'Yeah! Sure does! Well, I was just wondering. If you need someone to talk to. I just wanted to let you know that---I'm here.'
'Thanks so much! Don't worry! You'd definitely be the first person that I'll think of in case I need to talk to someone.' Angelina said while reaching for his hand. 'Thanks.' She then gazed at Fred's direction who looked away immediately upon seeing her. It's working!!!! Bwahahaha! =========
'So? What's the scoop?' Fred asked impatiently.
'Well, this Nick LeGrand is from Hufflepuff and is in 7th yr as well.' George said.
'He's smart, athletic and is a freaking prefect!' Lee added.
'Athletic? What do you mean athletic? Quidditch?' Fred asked.
'Yep, new captain. after Diggory,' Ron said, 'He's into Leggy-babes. He used to go out with Angela of Slytherin.'
'Angela? Man! That girl is definitely one hell of a girl! She's a whole lotta woman!' said Lee, looking amazed.
'Hmm. Amanda of Hufflepuffs, Ariana of Hufflepuffs again, Alyssa of Ravenclaw, Anise of Slytherin, Ann of Hufflepuffs and a lot more. These are just his steady girlfriends. not to mention the ones that he went on a date with.' said Ron, looking quite amazed himself.
'Seems to have a soft spot for girls' whose name starts with an "A",' said Harry. 'You have to watch out Fred. Angelina's certainly his type. Her name starts with an "A" and she's also tall.'
'How on earth did he managed to go out with all these gorgeous girls?!' George asked.
'Well, he's one gorgeous boy! I hate to say this but Fred--- you really have to watch out.' Ron said. 'Speaking of Fred's new best friend. Look who's here, 9 o'clock.'
They all looked at the direction that Ron's pointing. and there she was. again, with him, Nick. They all looked at Fred who just shrugged. Fred looked at them again and what bothered him the most was that she looked absolutely happy and contented. They were all still looking at him.
'What?! They were just talking you know. Don't look at me like that!' Fred said.
'Oh, ok! Whatever you say! You have gone completely mad! Suit yourself.' Ron said. 'Come on, Harry!' and they went off.
He was really jealous now. Oh, God! Help me please. I promise that I'll change. Please help me. Don't kill me, torture me like this. Avada Kedavra will be fine with me, but please. not this. =========
Fred was on his way to the common room, when he saw a tall guy of medium built with ash-blonde hair. Holy shit. it's Nicky the Idiot and Girlfriend Stealer! What the hell does he want now?! He walked pass him without even looking at Nick.
'Password?' said the fat lady. The fat lady could not help but notice Nick's effort to try and talk to Fred but all these effort was utterly dismissed. 'Weasley, I think this gentleman would like to talk to someone.'
'Huh? Why? What made you think that? I don't think so. Bye!' Fred said quickly and immediately ran inside the common room. What the hell? Did he really think that I'll call Angelina for him? Now that's what I call a Real Idiot! He was laughing his head off, but then he saw her. alone. in front of the fireplace. He cleared his throat, but there was no response. He did it again, but still no response. He coughed loudly, but still no response. He had no choice but to talk.
'So, you busy? Look I just want to talk. Please talk to me. I can't stand this silent treatment anymore and I just---,'
Angelina just looked at him and then shrugged. 'So what do you want to talk about?'
'Umm. er--- ahhh--- ummm,' was all that Fred managed to say. 'Hmmm. now that's hard.' Suddenly, Lavander and Parvati came in and broke the silence between them.
'Hey, Angelina!' Lavender said. 'A cute guy is waiting for you outside. Can you at least introduce me to him??? Does he have a brother?'
'You are not dating right? You are still dating Weasley, right?' Parvati asked. But Angelina immediately walked off and went to the door excitedly and with a huge grin on her face.
Fred felt that he should die that very moment. He slowly sunk in his chair and stared at the fire. I do not like this. Help, please?! Stupid Lavender and Parvati!==========
Everybody was in the common room now. Each and every one of them had something to do. Ron and Harry were playing chess. Hermione, Ginny and Neville were studying. Everybody was busy with something except for Fred who was busy staring at the door.
'Hey, Freddie! What's wrong?' Lee asked, looking concerned.
Fred was still busy staring at the door and his thoughts was definitely elsewhere. She wants to break up with me. or maybe we did break up already. But I've changed, and it's too late. If only she'd give me another chance. But she will break up with me. sooner or later. especially now that Nicky idiot and Girlfriend Stealer is there. or maybe we did break up already. Then suddenly he felt someone jolt his chest. 'What the hell is it?!'
'Hey! Calm down, Buddy! What's wrong?' George asked, looking concerned too.
'Nothing's wrong ok! I'm fine! Perfectly fine! Stop asking me those silly questions!'
'Fine, if you say so! No need for you to scream. It's not like we are over there and you are over here. Geez! Come on Lee! Let's just go talk to Harry and Ron.'
'Look, I'm sorry. But I really think that going to them is such a good idea right now. I just want to think, that's all. Thanks for worrying about me. but there's no need for that, really.' =========
'Hey Angelina, thanks for studying with me,' Nick said while smiling. 'I really hope that we can study again---err---tomorrow?'
Angelina laughed and then pulled him inside the common room. Everything is working the way I planned it! Weeeee!
'Parvati? Lavender? Where are you???' Angelina said while holding Nick's hand. She was pulling him towards the stairs now. 'Parvati? Lavender? Where are you? I want you to meet someone!'
Fred saw her come in and his eyes narrowed upon seeing her hands locked with his. BLOODY HELL! Now they are holding hands?! Damn it! That idiot and girlfriend stealer! That slimy git!!!!
'Coming! Coming!' Parvati yelled. They both came running down the stairs and gasped upon seeing Nick LeGrand's face.
'Parvati and Lavender, I would like you to meet Nick LeGrand of Hufflepuffs.'
Fred just rolled his eyes. Parvati and Lavender, I would like to show off my new boyfriend, Nick the Idiot and Girlfriend Stealer of Hufflepuffs. Stupid prat! That man is a bloody whore and slut!
'Hi!' said both and gave Nick their one million galleon smile.
'Hey! It's really nice to meet you both but I really have to get going. I still have quidditch practice.' Nick said politely and then turned to Angelina. 'So, I'll see you tomorrow? Please say yes.'
Angelina smiled brightly and said, 'Look, I'll see ok.'
'OK then. I guess I'll just see you around,' said Nick and then he hugged Angelina and gave her a soft peck on the cheeks. 'Bye!'
Fred was angry now. He stood up and walked in Nick's direction. George tried very hard to grab his robe but he failed. Everybody stood silent and looked at the two boys.
'Do something!' Katie, who is looking extremely worried, told Angelina. But to her surprise, Angelina just stared.
'Weasley, good to see you!' Nick said calmly and sarcastically. 'I have been trying to talk to you awhile ago, but I felt that you didn't want to talk to me because all my efforts were dismissed.'
Fred smiled at him. 'Nah, you felt that I didn't want to talk to you? I don't even want to see you. What on earth are you doing in MY common room? You are expected to know all the rules, Head boy.'
'Well, I actually didn't want to come in because for your information, I did not want to see you either. But Angelina, here, forced me and I couldn't say no to her.'
'Hey, Fred! Would you like to go down with us?' Lee asked, hoping to break the tension going on between Nick LeGrand and Fred Weasley, but he was completely ignored.
'Well, you are supposed to be smart right? Didn't you know that you could get her in trouble with Mcgonagall?'
'From the way that you are talking to me, I'm beginning to think that you are jealous of me.' Nick said with forced calmness. 'Are you, Weasley?'
'BLOODY HELL! Of course not!' Fred said quickly. 'You should go, before I tell on some prefect and headboy to a certain professor. I heard that many teachers are fond of you. You would not want to ruin your name, would you?' Fred said then walked towards the door and opened it for Nick.
'Yeah, Weasley! They are fond of me. and oh by the way, I heard that all of them hates you,' Nick said and then smirked at him. 'Bye, girls! Bye, Angelina! I really had a great time! I hope that we can do it again tomorrow!' he said then slowly walked out of the huge door.
'What was that all about Fred?' Angelina asked, looking annoyed.
'You are asking me? Why don't you ask yourself? What was that all about?' Fred snapped.
'You didn't have any right to treat him that way,' Angelina said.
'I have every right to treat him that way! I will treat a person anyway I want to treat them! I don't like him! I don't expect him to like me too! I won't mind if he treat me that way too because I - DON'T - LIKE - HIM!!!!!!! I - DON'T - LIKE - HIM!!!!!' Fred roared and then walked off to the boys' dormitories. Angelina just stood there but followed, she followed Fred to the boys' dormitories after a few minutes. ============
Fred jumped on his bed and laid there. BLOODY HELL!!! That slimy git is stealing my girlfriend! Damn it! I hate that Idiot LeGrand! There are many girls out there! Why Angelina?! That moron! ARGH!!! Stupid girlfriend stealer!!! But he suddenly heard slow and soft footsteps approaching the door. He looked at the door's direction and wondered who it was. A few seconds later, he saw the last person and at the same time the first person that he wanted to see.Angelina.
'What are you doing here?' he said. 'You should not be here. You are not allowed here.'
'Look! I came here to talk ok!' she said, starting to raise her voice.
'So, what do you want to talk about?' he said then started to stand up.
'You don't have any right to treat him like that!'
'Bloody hell?! You came up here for that?'
'Yeah! He asked me if...' but Fred cut her off.
'What?! If you could go around holding hands with him already?! If you could go around kissing him already?! What did he ask you?! You should have had the decency to at least end the one that you have with me! I looked like a bloody prat down there!' he said while yelling at the top of his lungs. 'Look, I don't like this anymore. If you want to go out with other people, please feel free to do so. I am ending this, this, rubbish for you. Good luck with LeGrand.'===========
Author's Note:
Hello! I would like to thank Lady Jayde Une and Quiet One for the review! I really really appreciate it! THERE WILL BE FIVE (5) CHAPTERS BY THE WAY. just wanted to let you know. (
'I have to make it up to her,' he said to himself, while staring at her picture. 'Oh! I know!' with that, he jumped off his bed and got ready for dinner. =========
'Hey, Lee!' Katie said while waving her hand and asking him to come to her.
'Hey there, gorgeous! What does my princess want this time?' Lee said while smirking.
'Oh, gee! Thanks!' Katie said while smiling. 'Look, Angelina is really upset with Fred. I think that she's had enough. I don't think that--- '
'Hey! What are you talking about?' George asked.
'Go away! Can't you see that we are having a decent conversation here?!' Lee snapped.
'But. I'm your best friend! You can't just shoo me away like some--- Fly!' George said pretending to be hurt and then he winked at Katie.
'Hey! She's mine! Buzz off!' Lee shouted. 'So what is it again, princess?'
'Stop it you two! Here goes, and by the way you can stay George. Alicia will be talking to you about this anyway.' Katie said looking annoyed. 'Look, you both better be nice to Angelina. She's really upset with Fred. I think that this will last longer than usual. She---'

'Yuck!' Alicia said while smiling.

'YOU hex him, I'll hex YOU!' said Alicia, stepping in front of George. This made Lee go behind Katie.
'Look! Calm down you two! George and Lee, come on!' Katie yelled.

'Bloody hell?! What the heck did you say then? Oh great! So you are breaking up with me? Some friend she is! I'm going with you George! I'll go talk to her. I'll make her see sense!' Lee yelled while forcing himself to calm down.
'Stop it!' Katie yelled as he grabbed Lee's and George's robes. 'No! We are not breaking up with you! So, quit it!'
'We are just telling you the latest scoops, alright?' Katie said.

'What the heck? You too? Oh God almighty! Help me! Have mercy on me! I'm trying to have a good dinner here.. Oh for heaven's sake. Here comes two more!'
'Why, why, why are we? Living in a world, world, world so cruel?' George began singing then Lee began to rap.
'Why is everybody fighting?' George asked.
'Ron and Hermione are always fighting. Nothing's really new with these two.' Harry said while smiling teasingly to Ron.

'Thanks so much! Don't worry! You'd definitely be the first person that I'll think of in case I need to talk to someone.' Angelina said while reaching for his hand. 'Thanks.' She then gazed at Fred's direction who looked away immediately upon seeing her. It's working!!!! Bwahahaha! =========
'So? What's the scoop?' Fred asked impatiently.
'Well, this Nick LeGrand is from Hufflepuff and is in 7th yr as well.' George said.
'He's smart, athletic and is a freaking prefect!' Lee added.
'Athletic? What do you mean athletic? Quidditch?' Fred asked.
'Yep, new captain. after Diggory,' Ron said, 'He's into Leggy-babes. He used to go out with Angela of Slytherin.'
'Angela? Man! That girl is definitely one hell of a girl! She's a whole lotta woman!' said Lee, looking amazed.
'Hmm. Amanda of Hufflepuffs, Ariana of Hufflepuffs again, Alyssa of Ravenclaw, Anise of Slytherin, Ann of Hufflepuffs and a lot more. These are just his steady girlfriends. not to mention the ones that he went on a date with.' said Ron, looking quite amazed himself.
'Seems to have a soft spot for girls' whose name starts with an "A",' said Harry. 'You have to watch out Fred. Angelina's certainly his type. Her name starts with an "A" and she's also tall.'
'How on earth did he managed to go out with all these gorgeous girls?!' George asked.
'Well, he's one gorgeous boy! I hate to say this but Fred--- you really have to watch out.' Ron said. 'Speaking of Fred's new best friend. Look who's here, 9 o'clock.'
They all looked at the direction that Ron's pointing. and there she was. again, with him, Nick. They all looked at Fred who just shrugged. Fred looked at them again and what bothered him the most was that she looked absolutely happy and contented. They were all still looking at him.
'What?! They were just talking you know. Don't look at me like that!' Fred said.
'Oh, ok! Whatever you say! You have gone completely mad! Suit yourself.' Ron said. 'Come on, Harry!' and they went off.
He was really jealous now. Oh, God! Help me please. I promise that I'll change. Please help me. Don't kill me, torture me like this. Avada Kedavra will be fine with me, but please. not this. =========
Fred was on his way to the common room, when he saw a tall guy of medium built with ash-blonde hair. Holy shit. it's Nicky the Idiot and Girlfriend Stealer! What the hell does he want now?! He walked pass him without even looking at Nick.
'Password?' said the fat lady. The fat lady could not help but notice Nick's effort to try and talk to Fred but all these effort was utterly dismissed. 'Weasley, I think this gentleman would like to talk to someone.'
'Huh? Why? What made you think that? I don't think so. Bye!' Fred said quickly and immediately ran inside the common room. What the hell? Did he really think that I'll call Angelina for him? Now that's what I call a Real Idiot! He was laughing his head off, but then he saw her. alone. in front of the fireplace. He cleared his throat, but there was no response. He did it again, but still no response. He coughed loudly, but still no response. He had no choice but to talk.
'So, you busy? Look I just want to talk. Please talk to me. I can't stand this silent treatment anymore and I just---,'
Angelina just looked at him and then shrugged. 'So what do you want to talk about?'
'Umm. er--- ahhh--- ummm,' was all that Fred managed to say. 'Hmmm. now that's hard.' Suddenly, Lavander and Parvati came in and broke the silence between them.
'Hey, Angelina!' Lavender said. 'A cute guy is waiting for you outside. Can you at least introduce me to him??? Does he have a brother?'
'You are not dating right? You are still dating Weasley, right?' Parvati asked. But Angelina immediately walked off and went to the door excitedly and with a huge grin on her face.
Fred felt that he should die that very moment. He slowly sunk in his chair and stared at the fire. I do not like this. Help, please?! Stupid Lavender and Parvati!==========
Everybody was in the common room now. Each and every one of them had something to do. Ron and Harry were playing chess. Hermione, Ginny and Neville were studying. Everybody was busy with something except for Fred who was busy staring at the door.
'Hey, Freddie! What's wrong?' Lee asked, looking concerned.
Fred was still busy staring at the door and his thoughts was definitely elsewhere. She wants to break up with me. or maybe we did break up already. But I've changed, and it's too late. If only she'd give me another chance. But she will break up with me. sooner or later. especially now that Nicky idiot and Girlfriend Stealer is there. or maybe we did break up already. Then suddenly he felt someone jolt his chest. 'What the hell is it?!'
'Hey! Calm down, Buddy! What's wrong?' George asked, looking concerned too.
'Nothing's wrong ok! I'm fine! Perfectly fine! Stop asking me those silly questions!'
'Fine, if you say so! No need for you to scream. It's not like we are over there and you are over here. Geez! Come on Lee! Let's just go talk to Harry and Ron.'
'Look, I'm sorry. But I really think that going to them is such a good idea right now. I just want to think, that's all. Thanks for worrying about me. but there's no need for that, really.' =========
'Hey Angelina, thanks for studying with me,' Nick said while smiling. 'I really hope that we can study again---err---tomorrow?'
Angelina laughed and then pulled him inside the common room. Everything is working the way I planned it! Weeeee!
'Parvati? Lavender? Where are you???' Angelina said while holding Nick's hand. She was pulling him towards the stairs now. 'Parvati? Lavender? Where are you? I want you to meet someone!'
Fred saw her come in and his eyes narrowed upon seeing her hands locked with his. BLOODY HELL! Now they are holding hands?! Damn it! That idiot and girlfriend stealer! That slimy git!!!!
'Coming! Coming!' Parvati yelled. They both came running down the stairs and gasped upon seeing Nick LeGrand's face.
'Parvati and Lavender, I would like you to meet Nick LeGrand of Hufflepuffs.'
Fred just rolled his eyes. Parvati and Lavender, I would like to show off my new boyfriend, Nick the Idiot and Girlfriend Stealer of Hufflepuffs. Stupid prat! That man is a bloody whore and slut!
'Hi!' said both and gave Nick their one million galleon smile.
'Hey! It's really nice to meet you both but I really have to get going. I still have quidditch practice.' Nick said politely and then turned to Angelina. 'So, I'll see you tomorrow? Please say yes.'
Angelina smiled brightly and said, 'Look, I'll see ok.'
'OK then. I guess I'll just see you around,' said Nick and then he hugged Angelina and gave her a soft peck on the cheeks. 'Bye!'
Fred was angry now. He stood up and walked in Nick's direction. George tried very hard to grab his robe but he failed. Everybody stood silent and looked at the two boys.
'Do something!' Katie, who is looking extremely worried, told Angelina. But to her surprise, Angelina just stared.
'Weasley, good to see you!' Nick said calmly and sarcastically. 'I have been trying to talk to you awhile ago, but I felt that you didn't want to talk to me because all my efforts were dismissed.'
Fred smiled at him. 'Nah, you felt that I didn't want to talk to you? I don't even want to see you. What on earth are you doing in MY common room? You are expected to know all the rules, Head boy.'
'Well, I actually didn't want to come in because for your information, I did not want to see you either. But Angelina, here, forced me and I couldn't say no to her.'
'Hey, Fred! Would you like to go down with us?' Lee asked, hoping to break the tension going on between Nick LeGrand and Fred Weasley, but he was completely ignored.
'Well, you are supposed to be smart right? Didn't you know that you could get her in trouble with Mcgonagall?'
'From the way that you are talking to me, I'm beginning to think that you are jealous of me.' Nick said with forced calmness. 'Are you, Weasley?'
'BLOODY HELL! Of course not!' Fred said quickly. 'You should go, before I tell on some prefect and headboy to a certain professor. I heard that many teachers are fond of you. You would not want to ruin your name, would you?' Fred said then walked towards the door and opened it for Nick.
'Yeah, Weasley! They are fond of me. and oh by the way, I heard that all of them hates you,' Nick said and then smirked at him. 'Bye, girls! Bye, Angelina! I really had a great time! I hope that we can do it again tomorrow!' he said then slowly walked out of the huge door.
'What was that all about Fred?' Angelina asked, looking annoyed.
'You are asking me? Why don't you ask yourself? What was that all about?' Fred snapped.
'You didn't have any right to treat him that way,' Angelina said.
'I have every right to treat him that way! I will treat a person anyway I want to treat them! I don't like him! I don't expect him to like me too! I won't mind if he treat me that way too because I - DON'T - LIKE - HIM!!!!!!! I - DON'T - LIKE - HIM!!!!!' Fred roared and then walked off to the boys' dormitories. Angelina just stood there but followed, she followed Fred to the boys' dormitories after a few minutes. ============
Fred jumped on his bed and laid there. BLOODY HELL!!! That slimy git is stealing my girlfriend! Damn it! I hate that Idiot LeGrand! There are many girls out there! Why Angelina?! That moron! ARGH!!! Stupid girlfriend stealer!!! But he suddenly heard slow and soft footsteps approaching the door. He looked at the door's direction and wondered who it was. A few seconds later, he saw the last person and at the same time the first person that he wanted to see.Angelina.
'What are you doing here?' he said. 'You should not be here. You are not allowed here.'
'Look! I came here to talk ok!' she said, starting to raise her voice.
'So, what do you want to talk about?' he said then started to stand up.
'You don't have any right to treat him like that!'
'Bloody hell?! You came up here for that?'
'Yeah! He asked me if...' but Fred cut her off.
'What?! If you could go around holding hands with him already?! If you could go around kissing him already?! What did he ask you?! You should have had the decency to at least end the one that you have with me! I looked like a bloody prat down there!' he said while yelling at the top of his lungs. 'Look, I don't like this anymore. If you want to go out with other people, please feel free to do so. I am ending this, this, rubbish for you. Good luck with LeGrand.'===========
