Chapter 7: Emotional Explanations
"Fred! Wait!" Angelina called, quickly getting up from the circle of astonished friends and following Fred.
"Angelina, go away." Fred said, trying to keep his voice steady.
Angelina grabbed onto his arm, making him turn to face her. "It's.... it's not what you think."
"Oh really? So you didn't sleep with my brother?!" Fred said, louder then he intended.
"Fred.... please...." Angelina stuttered nervously.
Fred glared at Angelina, more with pain then hate. He turned and walked away, wanting to be anywhere but by Angelina. She didn't follow him. The guilt seemed to be weighting her down.
When Angelina finally found the strength to walk back to the camp, tears were silently streaming down her cheeks.
"Ang...." Katie said, obviously sorry that she forced her friend to answer the truth question.
"Katie, I really don't want to talk to you right now." Angelina said, wiping her face.
"But if you just explain to him what happened-" Katie started.
"Katie." Angelina said with a shaky voice. "Please.... don't." She walked into the tent that was set up, and zipped the flap closed. Everyone could hear her sobbing and decided to give her some time alone. So Katie, Alicia, George, and Lee all slept on the ground that night. Fred still hadn't come back.
After Angelina's crying had stopped, and she seemed to be asleep, Alicia turned to Katie.
"What really did happen?" she asked, everyone was listening.
"Well.... I donno if I should be telling you guys this.... but I suppose she can't hate me anymore then she already does." Katie said with a frown.
"Okay," Katie said, everyone's ears straining to hear her whispering. "Remember last year after we won our last game against Slytherin? And we had that big party?" Everyone nodded. "Well, Angelina got pretty drunk, and I guess she went into the wrong dormitory. Because she told me that she ended up in Ron's dorm. She said that he was pretty upset because him and Hermione were going out and had had a fight." Katie said, taking a shaky breath. "So, she comforted him. And, you know, she was drunk and he was vulnerable and it just.... happened."
"So no one else knows? Hermione doesn't know?" Alicia asked quietly.
"Nope. They decided it would just be better not to tell anyone. Except Angelina told me because.... because she said she could trust me." Katie said, regret in her eyes. "God, I can't believe I made her tell everyone that. She's going to hate me forever." George put his arm around Katie to comfort her, but she continued to stare at the ground.
In the morning, Angelina woke up early and walked outside of the tent. Katie, Alicia, Lee, and George were all asleep on the ground. She walked past them quietly, not wanting anyone to wake up. Angelina headed toward the creek, hoping that Fred would be there. He was. His back was to Angelina and he was staring into the clear water.
"Fred?" Angelina asked quietly, making Fred jump. He quickly turned around.
"Ang, I don't wanna talk right now." He said, turning back to the creek.
"You have to listen to me." She said, sitting down next to him.
"Is there anymore to say? You slept with my brother. You didn't tell me. That about covers it." Fred said, not looking at Angelina.
"There's more to the story then just that." She said. Angelina told Fred the whole story. The whole time, she looked at his face, but he kept his eyes on the ground.
"I am so sorry Fred." Angelina said in a shaky voice, trying to hold back her tears. "If I would've known that it would make you hate me, I would have never done it." she said, breaking down in tears.
Fred finally looked up at Angelina. He pulled her close to him and she sobbed into his shoulder.
"I don't hate you Angie." Fred whispered in her ear. "I could never hate you."
"Are you mad at me?" Angelina asked in a small voice.
"It's really hard to be mad at you when I can't stop loving you." Fred said, making Angelina look up hopefully.
"Really?" She asked as he wiped away one of her tears.
"Yes. I love you Angelina." Fred whispered.
"I love you too." Angelina whispered back. After she had dried up all of her tears, Angelina and Fred walked back to the camp, hand in hand.
