A Whole Lot of Questions & Confusement – The Final Chapter (Before I write the Epilogue)
Fred, speechless, crouched down to the floor. He here was ready to tell Anna he loved her and Draco went and pulled something like this. But how? George was sitting at the table and there was no way George would even try to do something like that to Fred. The only way he knew something like that could be done is with a Polyjuice Potion and the only person he knew who could conjure something up that difficult is Hermione and he doubted Hermione would ever associate herself with Draco.
"What am I going to do?" Fred groaned.
"Your going to be the Fred Weasley I love and get back at Draco," said a voice from the shadows.
"Anna, wake up! We had a dance last night but that doesn't mean we don't have classes. Come on Anna. We need to figure out what to do with all this drama," Elle said trying to wake up the stubborn Slytherin.
"No, I have to figure this all out. I was wrong about Draco. There's no way he could have done something like that to me; it may be Draco but he does love me," Anna said sitting up.
"Are you kidding me!"
"No."
"Anna, come on."
"No Elle. How do we knew Fred wouldn't do anything like that?"
"Because ... HE'S FRED FREAKING WEASLEY. The guy who practically worshipped the ground you walked on, the guy who took you on a broom ride, the guy who can't stop smiling whenever he hears your name. That's why."
"But that's just it. That's the Fred we know. We aren't Gryffindors, for all we know he could be some asshole."
"But he isn't Anna. What's up with you? It sounds almost like you want to get back with Draco."
"Maybe I do. Maybe I miss that sneer and all his bullshit."
"Anna, this isn't like you."
"And how all my behavior this past semester been like me?"
"I'm going to get breakfast. Maybe you need some time by yourself but you're speaking in riddles to me," Elle said getting up and giving a look of almost disgust to Anna.
Walking into the Great Hall, Anna saw Fred trying to catch her eye but she avoided his gaze, well almost. "God, I can't even look him in the eye without blubbering," Anna though as she felt her eyes water.
"Glad to see my special someone woke up, finally," Draco said patting the bench at the seat next to him. Anna sat down and accepted the kiss, but as his tongue asked permission to enter she pulled back. "Relax Draco. We're in the Great Hall for god's sake."
While she felt bitter towards Fred she didn't want to rub it in his face that Draco and her had gotten back together, and making out during breakfast was just that. Putting butter on some toast that had appeared in front of her, she couldn't help but feel out of place at the table. Everyone was in jolly moods since the dance was the night before, but as hard as she tried she couldn't get rid of her feeling of sadness, even with the help of Draco.
"Another Hogsmeade trip is coming up Anna. Care to accompany me?" Draco said remembering how she hadn't even bothered going with him the last time because he hadn't asked her.
"Sure, I guess."
"Anna, put a smile on. I hate to see you sad."
"I'm sorry, I'm just not feeling so great."
"Why shouldn't you be? Your Draco's girlfriend after all," Pansy said nastily getting up from the table.
"What the hell was that about?" Anna said jerking up from her seat.
"Nothing Anna Nothing," Draco said trying to get her to sit. "It's Pansy talking, come on."
"I suppose."
"Anna, can I speak to you for a moment?" Anji asked tapping on Anna's shoulder.
"What's up Anji?"
"Anna, what's up! Shouldn't I be asking you that question?"
"I don't see why."
"Anna, what happened last night? All I know is that you and Draco are back together and Fred's a miserably sack of bones."
"Maybe you should ask him, he's the … The guy who fucked everything up," Anna said throwing her hands in the air. "Look I'm sorry I'm being such a bitch. It's just that I don't' want to talk about this right now. If you have questions, ask him." And with that Anna took what was left of her pride and went back to the table.
"Anna, perhaps not everything is as it seems, am I right?"
"Anji, I have always thought you were the smartest of us all. And yes, perhaps," Anna said smiling, for the first time that day.
"What was that all about?" Elle said suspiciously as Anna sat down.
"Annoying little bitches who think they are in control of everything is what that was all about," Anna said giving a smile.
"Oh dear. Anna come on, we have to go get ready for Potions," Elle said grabbing her best friends arm. Elle was confused with all that was going on and it was high time she got some answers, from her best friend.
Entering the Common Room, Elle sighed and started what would be an interesting conversation.
"Anna, what's going on? I want the truth this time."
"Elle, how do you do it?" Anna said sighing and plopping herself down on the couch.
"Do what?"
"Make a relationship work. I mean look at you and Blaise; you guys are happy together."
"Oh gosh Anna don't ask me. I mean don't get me wrong I love your brother, but he isn't one to have a complicated relationship with. I don't know, I guess we understand each other's boundary's."
"But how did things get to be so complicated with me and Draco?"
"Well, from what I remember you were getting tired of his possessiveness. And then Fred came along and to tell you the truth Anna, I don't think I've ever seen you smile as much as you did when you were with Fred, aside from the pranks."
"But who was I happier with: Draco or Fred?"
"Well Anna, that's your decisison to make. Not mine."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Are you sure this is going to work?"
"Yes, I'm positive."
"I—I love you"
"Do you know how happy that makes me feel?" They kissed under the pale moonlight and then it clicked, this was no 7-year romance/fling. This was the real deal.
"I have to go."
"Good luck."
"Let's just hope this goes just as we planned."
