Real Love
Chapter Three: Of Dreams and Schemes
March 14, 1995
I dreamed of Angelina last night. How can it be possible for an angel to haunt a person's mind every single night?
In my dream, I touched her for the first time. She felt like heaven, but then again, Angelina Johnson is heaven. It felt so right being with her that I started to think this was how it was supposed to be-just me and Angel, together.
And then I woke up, too excited to let the dream go farther. It was very silly of me, the dream. I started to feel a little guilty dreaming about Fred's girl, so I went down to the common room to clear my head.
I hate Umbridge. Because she's an ugly, fat cow, because she took Quidditch away from Harry, Fred, and me. And because, by doing that, she took something much more important away from me.
Angelina.
Fred's beautiful girlfriend. The one I want. It's just too damn bloody bad that my lucky brother can't see what he's got.

Fred Weasley has got to be the biggest prat I've ever known! Doesn't he see how much pain he's causing and that I'm pathetically in love with him! I swear, if he was still on the Quidditch team, I'd take his Beater club and smash he's dense head in!
Sometimes I wish we could go back...way back, to better times. When Fred and I would flirt occasionally and everything meant nothing; when we were still teammates in Quidditch and compare bruises and cuts(I used to love it whenever he kissed my "boo-boo's"); when Oliver Wood was still captain. You know, it ain't easy being responsible of the most untalented Quidditch team in all of Hogwart's history...
But last night, I couldn't sleep, so I went down to the common room where I talked with George Weasley, Fred's wonderful brother...

Katie,
What was that look you gave me in Transfiguration about? Do you still not trust me with the plan?
Even though, I don't act like it, I really do care about Angel and I don't think it's right for a girl to be that stressful. I'm just trying to help.

Ali,
I was just seeing if you transfigured your music box correctly. And I know that you care about Angelina. I do as well, that's why I'm worried. She seems like she likes George but I know she's still in love with Fred.
Why can't she just handle things on her own...without help from annoying, meddling best friends with and evenly more annoying, meddling plan?

Well, for now everything's going my way. The joke shop is progressing right nicely, thanks to our good friend, Mr. Potter, and our brilliant minds.
But Angelina and I seem to be growing more and more faraway. A week ago, when I had kissed her in the corridor after Transfiguration, she pulled away and bloody snapped at me! Said something about...not taking her seriously and ignoring her. What was that about? I told her I didn't know what she was talking about. I mean, I do everything a guy can do for his girl, don't I? And then she rolled those pretty eyes and says, 'Why do I even bother?' and walked away. Just like that. It's like, go 'head and leave me in the dark, Angie...I don't mind. Women confuse me.
But I think it's 'that time of the month' for her, so I don't cross her path much anymore. She becoming more like Mum more and more each day and I think she's worse when she's like this. I'm giving her space and waiting till it blows over.
But I know my Angelina still knows that I love her.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
I think I should tell Angel how I feel, before I go insane and do something crazy, like...tell her how I feel. Thing is, she might think I'm more of a git than Fred for trying to steal my brother's girlfriend away. Still, last night she did say she was no longer his. Or maybe she was just talking in her sleep, dreaming about not being in love with Fred anymore.
Oh Merlin...am I that desperate?
Nothing can stop the way I feel about her.
I am in love Angelina Johnson.
-from the diary of George Weasley
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
...And he was so sweet to me. Much more considerate than Fred ever was. But no...I must be loyal. Or at least tell Fred the problem. It's only fair isn't it? All right then, so I tell the prat I'm tired of the way he's been acting and then what? Say that I'm actually beginning to have feelings for his identical twin?
There. I've admitted it.
I am falling in love with George Weasley.

Katie,
I just got the most perfect idea! It's quite obvious and I know you won't like it, but won't you just think about it before we argue, please?
Ok, here it is. What if we set George and Angel up, not only to make Fred jealous, but to make them both happy?

Loved all the review...I'm really glad you all liked Ch. 2. Thaaank yooou!
SuckerForGrint: Yeah, I go both ways-I love F/A but since there are soo many of those, I'm more of a G/A girl. And voila! The birth of Real Love. Haha. Thank you much for being interested and reviewing :D
Evilevergreen: lol. I think George is very sweet, very opposite the beloved Fred, but kinda the same, you know? I just confused myself, but oh well, I'm glad you reviewed that chapter nicely. And no...Fred didn't catch them together. I was leaning that way, but I decided to save confrontations for later ;p
FredsAngel: haha, yeah I know what you mean. Thanks! I like Fred too, but somebody's gots ta be the bad guy, right? And there are so many different kinds of Angelinas out there, and at first I didn't know how to portray her, since she's hardly mentioned in the books, but yay, you like her! I'm so glad.
angelface04: Yes that was tres romantic of George, in a shy, sneaky sort of way. Ah well, least he's romantic. There's more G/A/F on this site? I've only found two, but you made me curious...I must find them! Heh. Thank you.
Nikki: Merci! I'm extremely glad you liked it. And yes, there will be drama...There HAS to be with love triangles, right? Hmm...I can't say if George and Angelina will make it together, that'll give away my beautiful ending! Lol
Caderyn: Thank you x2! No...the Yule Ball thing doesn't quite make them soulmates, but it did make them realize their unspoken love for each other...I think. I dunno, that's what I always thought / Haha, George's the man and I agree, pimpin' Fred is so not cool :)
