Disclaimer: Yep, I'm J.K. Rowling and I have all this money, a big house, and a real story I need to write, but I like to write fanfiction on my spare time because I hate writing my story and I feel like making everyone wait another three years for my next book to come out… or maybe I'll make it four just because I can. (Let's just hope that's not really how J.K. Rowling feels! Oh, and I was being sarcastic…I don't own anything!)
Full Summary: Angelina Johnson is going crazy trying to figure out how to get Fred Weasley's attention, he only seems to notice her when she's either buying one of his joke shop items or about to get hit by a bludger. She's sick of being in love with someone who doesn't love her back so she joins up with Katie to win the Weasley Twin's hearts!
A/N: I'm only planning on making this 5-10 chapters long... just to let you know! It might change though… depends on what direction I decide to go in! Oh, and it takes place in their 7th year…
Chapter 1
The Plan
Angelina stared out the window of the History of Magic classroom. The snow was falling heavily, and the grounds of Hogwarts were sheeted with a soft blanket of newly lain snow, making it look crisp and powdery. She let out a huge sigh before glancing at her wrist watch, 4:56… four minutes of class left. She let her eyes drift around the classroom until they rested on one of the boys with bright red hair, the one that had his head in his arms and had loud snores coming out of his mouth. She looked up at Professor Binns, but he didn't seem to notice that Fred Weasley was asleep, or that George was laughing very loudly and very obnoxiously at his twin brother. But, then again, did Binns ever notice his student's sleeping or being obnoxious?
"And Brusealla the Barbarian was very savage and killed anyone in the most horrible ways she could think of, she once killed a wizard by cutting him so many times with a piece of paper that he bleed to death-" Binns went on in his usual boring tone. Angelina decided he wasn't saying anything important and went back to gazing at Fred.
Ever since first year she'd been amazed by how talented, clever, and funny the twins were, Fred more then George for some odd reason. It wasn't until second year that she'd realized she actually liked him as more then a friend; that was when they'd both gotten on the Quidditch team and had spent more time together. But they'd never actually been close, Fred had always wanted to hang out with George and Lee more then he did with Angelina, Alica, and Katie. She remembered when she'd gone to the Yule Ball with him in sixth year, that had been one of the funnest nights in her life, but after the ball Fred hadn't talked to her about anything besides the Weasley's Wizard Wheezes and Quidditch.
"And I'm afraid we'll need to end this class, a roll of parchment due on Brusealla the Barbarian is due on Monday." Binns announced. Suddenly everyone seemed to wake up and began collecting their things. Angelina stood up and gathered her books before walking toward the door.
"Oy! Angelina!" Her heart skipped a beat as she whirled around to see Fred coming up behind her, George following along with Lee.
"Yes?" She asked in what she hoped was a casual voice.
"I, uh, I was…er… do… did you get any notes in that class? I was…erm… asleep and was wondering if I could borrow yours." Fred asked scratching the back of his neck with his free hand, his eyes set on the floor in front of him. Angelina felt her hopes fall, but now she had something else to add to the list besides only talking to her about Quidditch and jokes… now he talked to her about schoolwork!
"Yeah, sure." Angelina murmured as she took out a piece of parchment and handed it to him. "If you could give it back to me tomorrow, that would be great… I'll need it to do my homework."
"Yeah…ok." Fred nodded as he took the parchment and placed it in one of his books. "Thanks."
"Your welcome, Fred." She smiled half-heartedly before heading off down the hall.
"Wait! Angelina!" Her heart stopped and she turned around to face him again.
"I was wondering if…um…you see….your shoes untied." Fred muttered his face turning red which clashed horribly with his red hair.
"Oh, thanks, Fred." Angelina responded a sense of lackluster in her voice. George and Lee began to snicker as they passed Angelina, Fred following his face still bright red. She watched them walk away before glancing down at her feet…her shoelaces still in perfect bows.

"What's wrong Angelina?" Katie called from her seat in front of the fire as Angelina walked into the common room. She glanced around, checking to see if Fred was there, but he wasn't. She walked over to Katie and took the chair next to her before letting out a loud sigh.
"Why can't he notice me? Why does he always think of me as a friend and no more? Why, why, why?" Angelina let out as she put her hands on her face and began to shake it violently.
"Whoa! Slow down Angelina, slow down! Now start from the beginning and tell me exactly who and what you're talking about." Katie instructed. Angelina scrutinized her suspiciously before deciding she'd tell her what she'd never told anyone before. After all, Katie had told her when she'd had a crush on Cedric Diggory in the past… although who hadn't had a crush on Cedric?
"It's Fred." Angelina admitted.
"And what did this Fred do?" Katie inquired a sparkle of mirth in her eyes.
"Come on Katie, I'm being serious!" Angelina said raising her shoulders roughly.
"Ok, now what about Fred?" Katie asked a more sincere expression on her face. Angelina leaned toward Katie, not wanting anyone else to hear.
"Well…I sort of like him," Angelina whispered.
"Of course! Everybody likes Fred; he's a really neat person." Katie exclaimed rolling her eyes.
"Katie! You know what I mean." Angelina said fiercely.
"Yeah, I know… I guess we're in the same boat." Katie sighed. Angelina recoiled; Katie didn't mean she liked him too? Did she?
"Katie… since when did you start to like Fred?" Angelina asked curiously. Katie shook her head, a smile spreading across her face.
"Not Fred, George!" Katie giggled.
"You like George!" Angelina grinned in surprise. But actually, once she thought about it, it made perfect sense.
"Theirs just something about those Weasley boys…must be the red hair." Katie beamed.
"Yeah, but the thing is Fred never notices me… I mean he notices me but he doesn't notice me… in a romantic way I mean." Angelina explained.
"Oh the horrors of liking a Weasley." Katie said throwing her hand on her forehead and falling back onto the couch dramatically. "They're just so thick when it comes to us girls." Angelina nodded her agreement as Katie sat up a sly grin on her face.
"What?" Angelina asked sure she wasn't going to like whatever hair brained idea was going through her friends mind.
"Well… what do you think about maybe…showing them what there missing… being so obvious that they'll have to realize we like them?" Katie suggested her eyes alight with zest.
"I'm not following you." Angelina admitted a perplexed look upon her face.
"What if we were to show them that we liked them without actually telling them?" Katie's eyebrows rose with excitement.
"Katie… that's impossible!" Angelina cried.
"Not exactly… I think I have a plan… and it could work… Infact it's an overstatement to call it a plan, it's really just a… well it's not plan." Katie announced.
"What is it?" Angelina asked immediately regretting her words.
"Well, all we have to do is just flirt like crazy with them!" Katie grinned cheerfully.
"What! Katie, I'm not exactly the kind of girl who flirts like crazy." Angelina sighed.
"Oh yes you will be!" Katie smirked before grabbing Angelina's hand and dragging her up the stairs and into the girl's dormitory.

"Good going Fred, I think if you keep that up you'll be 60 before you actually ask her out!" George grinned at his twin brother as they headed down a hallway that led to the Great Hall.
"Bug of George." Fred growled irritably.
"Cheer up Freddy old boy, I'm sure she'll have fun tying her already tied shoelaces." George said clapping Fred on the shoulder.
"Why couldn't I just blurt it out? Why did I need to make a fool of myself? How can she be so pretty that I forget what I'm going to say and get all embarrassed around her? I don't know any other girl that can do that so why can she?" Fred demanded.
"Forge, calm down, it's just Angelina." George grinned.
"But that's just it! It's not just Angelina anymore! It's like… I dunno, weird." Fred announced.
"Ahh, young Fred here has finally discovered the strange species called girls." George said.
"Shut up Georgie." Fred muttered. "At least I've discovered them; you're still too thick to realize that they exist."
"Hey!" George exclaimed. "I think I know they exist! After all, I've notice Katie's been looking particularly foxy this year."
"What are you talking about Gred; she looks the same as she did last year… and the year before, and the year before that." Fred grinned at his twin.
"No she doesn't!" George said defensively.
"Georgina old chap, I think we're in the same boat." Fred grinned as they entered the Great Hall 50 minutes early for dinner.
