Author: Thanks again so much to everyone that reviewed. It means a lot to me, so, much love. Here is chapter six.
Chapter Six - What It All Boils Down To
"Angie!" he beckoned. To his surprise, she didn't respond. "Angie!" he called again.
The woman has deaf covering her ears! Actually, it's probably her hair. It always so soft… I love it. Well, I love her. I need to tell her. But I can't make it all random. It can't be all, 'Hey Angie. How are you? How's the family? Those are so nice shoes there, I love you." No, that's too random. Bloody hell, I should've just told her before. You're a moron, you know that? She STILL hasn't come here yet? Oh for Merlin's sake…
"Angelina Johnson! Come here a minute!" Fred demanded. His voice was shrill. He was starting to get antsy. The suspense was killing him. She turned around and was walking towards him.
"Angie, there's something I have to…"
"KATIE! HURRY UP! We're going to be late!" she yelled up the stairs.
Katie Bell, her best friend. I just HAD to have a thing for her best friend. She's not even that pretty. I don't see why George is eyeing her all the time. Angelina's much prettier…
Fred walked right up to her and stood right in front of her.
"Ang, listen. You don't need to say anything, I just want you to hear me out. Angie, I'm a dumbass…"
Don't say anything. Stick with the plan. Don't say a word.
"You can say that again." She snapped.
Oh Goddamn. So much for sticking to the plan.
"Okay, I completely deserved that. Angie, what I said last night, it came out all wrong…"
"How were you going to put it? There's MORE ways you could've rejected me? Were you going to say something like, 'Oh, sorry. I'm a tosser and I love your best friend'…?"
"I DON'T LOVE HER!" Fred yelled. Noticing that he was making a scene, he said quietly, "I never loved her…"
No time like the present. Just tell her you love her.
"Then why did you hurt me, Fred? Why did you flirt with my constantly? Why? Do you find this some kind of sick joke? Well, Fred. I'd like to know. If you need me, I'll be upstairs, crying." And with that she marched upstairs back to bed. Her eyes were starting to get red from crying. Her face felt hard and rough. Her tearstained cheeks were flushed. The long healing process could begin. Angelina Johnson had, had enough of Fred Weasley.
Fred went out on to the Grounds. He sat near the northern end of the Forbidden Forest. He now waited for Angelina to exit her dorm and run up to him and slap him across the face, as hard she could. He deserved the pain and the guilt. After all, he had broken up the indestructible friendship of Fred Weasley and Angelina Johnson.
She stumbled into the Common Room. Her watched read 1:03 a.m. All was silent in the darkened room. She sat in the tall, red velvet chair and curled up in her blanket. She was finally done with Fred Weasley.
I'm free. He doesn't control my every thought now.
Just then, a tall, red headed figure waltzed into the dark Common Room.
"Hey…" He said, he was obviously uncomfortable.
"Hi…" she said, pointing to the open chair. He sat down and leaned over in her direction.
"You know how you asked me why I always flirted…"
"Enough." She said forcefully. "I'm going to bed. Good night." She said, grabbing the train of her 'blanket-gown'.
"I know you're wondering why, Angie." He said, she was already halfway up the landing. "Just ask me that complicated question. You're dying to know the answer. I know it." Angelina turned around slowly.
"Why did you hurt me?" she asked. "Is it really all one sick joke to you? Tell me why you make me feel miserable."
Fred smiled slightly, "You always hurt the one you love."
And with that, Angelina felt warm and drowsy. Her eyes dried of her sorrowful tears. She knew for a fact that Fred Weasley would remain in her memories for as long as she lived.
There we go. There's the end. Please review. Thanks a lot to everyone reviewed. Hopefully it was okay.
