This is kind of a short chapter, I got all I needed and made it short and sweet.

Shout-outs:

Cresco- Harry is in 5th year, I know it already happened and all, but the story was actually started before the 5th book was out, so I'm trying to keep it the same, but update with the book too, so bare with me. Sirius will be in it.

Babebunny- Thanks, I like it too.

Mrs.ChristinaFelton- Thanks for reading and for the suggestions, grammar's a weak point of mine, so I really don't pay attention, but thanks for the help. I'll try to write better now.

Charlie- thanks for reading my story, yours is good too, sorry I haven't reviewed, I haven't had time to read it all yet, but I am getting through it little by little!

The next afternoon Rhymes, Ron, and Harry sat outside under an oak tree trying to write the pain in the ass essay Snape had assigned on venom antidotes. Ron was having a lot of trouble.

"Rhymes, how do you cure basilisk venom?" he asked, after scratching his head.

"Easy, you die," she replied. Two redheaded boys were heading toward them and Ron jumped behind the tree.

"What the hell is wrong with him?" Harry asked him, but Ron didn't answer, he was too busy cringing.

"RONALD WEASLEY!" George yelled, stopping near them. The twins looked around angrily.

"Where is that little bugger?" Fred asked Rhymes. But Rhymes smiled, and made a motion like she was zipping her lips, taunting the boy, but Fred knew how to get her to talk. He leaned in close to her and said, "come on love, tell me where he is." He stared at her lovingly and smiled, she didn't stand a chance. She got a goofy stupid grin on her face and said:

"Behind the…"

Harry dove at her and put his hand in front of her mouth.

"What'd he do?" he asked quickly before Fred could seduce Rhymes more.

"The little git reported to Hermione, who wrote to mum, and told her we were selling 'adulterated candy to the younger students'," George said mimicking Hermione quite well. Harry nodded.

"He ran that way, towards Hagrid's," Harry said, still not uncovering Rhymes's mouth. George nodded and started to run. Fred, however, was busy staring into Rhymes's eyes. George looked at him quizzically, wondering why his attention was focused upon their friend.

"Oy! Fred!" he called.

"I'll catch up later," Fred replied. He lowered his voice so only Rhymes could hear. "Want to go somewhere with me?" Rhymes nodded and the two left, Fred pulling her in the direction of the Herbology greenhouses. George came back over silently. Ron, not hearing his brother's return, came out from his hiding area. George put him into a headlock immediately, but he stopped after a while and pushed him to the ground.

"It's just not the same, I think I've lost my brother."

"Well, at least it's to Rhymes," Harry said reassuringly. George shrugged.

"Yea, I guess if I wanted anyone for him it would be her. Although, I can't really see what he sees in her."

All three boys shrugged and began walking back to the castle to get ready for dinner.

Fred led Rhymes up to the South tower.

"Close your eyes," he said. She closed them and Fred guided her into a room that smelled of citrus and nectar, small flapping noises surrounded her. "Ok, open."

She looked around and gasped. Thousands of butterflies fluttered around her in a tropical forest habitat. Fred smiled, her eyes were full of wonder and awe, he knew she liked her surprise; it made him happy to see her like that. Rhymes looked at him passionately.

"This place, it's beautiful," she said, coming closer to him.

"Yea, it makes you look like a monkey," Fred replied laughing.

"Aren't you romantic."

"I love you."

Rhymes felt her breath leave her and her brown eyes widened with astonishment and affection.

"I love you too."

They looked at each other a second longer before closing the small gap between them. The kiss was exhilarating to both parties, Rhymes wrapped her arms tight around Fred's neck and he held her waist, almost picking her up. As they separated Rhymes slightly punched his shoulder.

"What was that for?"

"I waited two years for that! You could have made it longer I mean-"

His lips silenced her once again.

Tom spied on Rhymes and Fred's kiss. His lips formed a straight, white line that most would fear. He hated the Weasley boy. He must kill him, and then he will win Rhymes.

'You have come to kill Potter, not some love-sick boy' the voice of his adult self radiating in his mind. He scowled and replied:

"I will kill them both in due time master."

Tom was waiting in the entrance hall for Rhymes after dinner. She walked out alone, as was normal for her, she needed some alone time everyday. He approached her and put on his smoothest most heart-wrenching voice.

"My dear Rhymes, you look beautiful tonight," he said. She looked oddly at him.

"Thank you Tom, um, you look nice too," she replied, she really didn't know what to say. He came a step closer, they were only about 6 inches apart.

"I heard about you and Weasley, some would think you foolish."

"But I love Fred, why is that foolish?"

"Love is always foolish, but I find myself loving someone now who does not return my feelings, and I am seeking your advice."

"Well, first, stop talking like you are in the nineteenth century, it's a turn off."

"Yes, yes, would you help me win my love's heart?"

"Sure, I'm always ready to help the needy in the matters of the heart, what's she like?"

"A lot like you actually, that's why I asked your help, would you like to go for a walk and we can talk about her?"

"Sure."

Tom and Rhymes began walking towards the doors as Fred and George came to the hall. Fred glared when he saw Tom, there was something about the Slytherin he didn't like.

"I don't like him," he said to his brother.

"Well, Rhymes seems to, she'll be fine. She's a big girl."

Fred nodded and hoped he was right.

If you all feel the inclination please review and all, thanks
