Chapter Three

Ron stared at them nonplussed.

"That's good, very good," he said, handing the parchment back to Fred.

"Huh?" Fred looked puzzled.

"You're just making fun because I showed you that note. Good try though, very convincing. You and Angelina, eh? Never would have seen that coming."

"Nobody knew about that! Nobody was supposed to know except for me and Angelina!" Fred protested.

Ron and George stared at Fred.

"You mean, you're actually dating Angelina?" George asked.

"Yeah..." Fred mumbled, turning a deep shade of red.

Ron and George looked at each other, raising their eyebrows. Without warning they burst into fits of laughter.

"What's so funny?" demanded Fred, turning even redder.

"It's just... you and... Angelina...!" Ron sputtered out between laughs.

"There's nothing funny about it!" shouted Fred, his voice rising with anger.

"When did you two hook up?" asked George, slowly starting to calm down.

"Sixth year, after the Yule Ball." He looked down at the floor.

Ron and George stopped laughing instantly.

"And you've been hiding it all this time?"

"Yeah..."

"But that makes it..." Ron started.

"... A little over three years," Fred finished.

They looked at Fred in awe. He had kept this secret from them for three years. They couldn't believe it.

"How... when do you see her?" George asked.

"A few times a week, usually at the shop when you leave or when I take my breaks." Fred continued staring at the floor.

"And you've kept this a secret from everyone?"

"Yeah..."

"Bloody hell! That's amazing. You did a better job at hiding that than Ron did about Hermione. Not that it's that big of a shock, it's just that we're together almost all of the time."

"Almost," Fred winked.

Ron was now staring at George with a look of utter bewilderment on his face. "How did you know about me and Hermione? Not that there's anything between us," he finished quickly.

"Don't be stupid Ron. We saw the way you two looked at each other when you were saying goodbye at the train station. And at Harry's funeral, Moody said he saw you two holding each other's hands, and he questioned us about it."

"Great man, Mad-Eye. That eye of his is a great way to spy on others." Fred had a look of admiration as he said this.

"Anyway," continued George, "you and Hermione? But the pair of you bug the mickey out of each other every second of the day. There hasn't been a year at Hogwarts where you two didn't have a good row together."

Ron said nothing.

"Ickle Rinnikins has got himself a girlfriend. Awww..." Fred teased. George sniggered.

"Shove it." Ron left the kitchen in a deep shade of red.

"Mental, that one."

Ron came back into the kitchen again.

"Now what?" asked George.

"The note."
"Oh!"

In all that time they were arguing about the love lives, they had completely forgotten about the notes they had found.

"So now what?" asked Ron. "D'you think we should show Mum and Dad?" He pulled out the first letter Harry had written from his robes.

George gave a determined nod and they left the kitchen to search for their parents.
