Revenge? Whatever!

"Oops," Ron muttered as the seriousness of the situation finally settled in.

"Yeah, you better be!" Fred cried as he revealed himself from behind the sofa.

"I better be what?"

"Sorry!"

"I didn't say sorry-"

"Well… you should have done! Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to fix what you broke!" With that, Fred ran out of the room following Hermione to the garden.

"What did I break?" Ron asked timidly as a very stern looking George emerged from the depths of the sofa.

"Hermione! And, I'm sorry for laughing, but you should've seen your face just now! Did you honestly think I was going to be like McGonagall? No!" He laughed, "But I am mad." Ron gulped and began backing away.

"Who says that to their friends Ron? No one does!" He yelled, making big arm gestures as he spoke.

"IT SLIPPED OUT!" Ron screamed and stomped up to his room.

"Idiot," George muttered, but soon forgot it for the moment so he could eavesdrop on Fred and Hermione.

MEANWHILE

Fred slowed down by the field next to his garden when he heard sobbing.

"Hermione?" He called out gently, to make sure she didn't think he was going to be horrible.

"What do you want Fred?" She sniffed, and Fred found her slumped against the wall.

"He's an idiot, you know," He said softly while putting an arm around her comfortingly.

"I know," she smiled, "But he still said it." She sighed, then looked quizzically at Fred.

"Why did you come out to 'console' me anyway? I was expecting Ginny to be the first one out," she admitted.

"Contrary to popular belief, I do have a conscience you know," he laughed, " And I wanted to." Hermione blushed and leaned into his shoulder. They sat in a comfortable silence for a while, then Fred spoke.

"Why Ginny?"

"Hmm?"

"Why were you expecting Ginny, and not Ron with an apology?"

"Because I had this really bad feeling he meant it," she sighed, now she'd have to tell him.

"Why?"

"Last week, Ron asked me out. I was so shocked, I didn't know what to say, but I soon came to my senses and realised I don't like him that way. I mean, I can barely stand him as a friend!" She smiled at the statement.

"Would I be correct in assuming he didn't take it too well?"

"That would be an understatement, it was like watching a volcano erupt! He didn't speak to me for a day, but now, he's over-possessive, because he thinks I rejected him because of you." Fred blushed and began watching the birds in the sky.

"And the thing is," she began, "I think I di-"

"Gotcha!" George yelled as he jumped on top of them. "Aw, are you cuddling? Can I have a cuddle Fred?" He stuck his arms out and pouted like a three year-old.

"Shut up, or I'll let something slip to Lee what you were doing with Alicia the other week. Outside our front door," Fred smirked smugly. George gasped.

"You. Little. Spy. You just wait! I'll get some good dirt on you yet! And when I do! You'll be sorry!" He chuckled and chased Fred back to the house.

"Come on Mione! I'll make you a hot chocolate!" Fred called over his shoulder while trying to escape George. Hermione sighed. She was so close to telling him. And yet so far. Oh well, the time would come. But right now, hot chocolate with Fred sounded really nice.

Review!
