Chapter 5 Midnight Stroll
Jasmine slipped on the cloak and disappeared from view. She crept along the halls, watching for Filch or Mrs. Norris. She met no one along to the highest place in the castle, the Astronomy Tower. Once she reached there she climbed out of the window and sat on the roof. She sat with her knees up to her chest and her arms around her knees. She didn't know how long she sat there, if she looked at her watch then she'd fall asleep right on the roof.
Back at the boys dormitories, Fred was still awake. He decided to out his mind at ease, and check the map. He'd see, Jasmine's dot would be in the room labeled Gryffindor Girls Dormitories.
"I solemnly swear I am up to no good," He whispered. George and the other boys were fast asleep. He found a dot labeled Jasmine Tamrin, but not in the dormitories. He found hers outside of the Astronomy Tower. He grabbed his and George's shared invisibility cloak and crept out of the dormitories. While on his way, Filch almost caught Fred. He'd been looking at him, Fred thanked that him and George had bought the cloak. After that, it was clear until he got to the Astronomy Tower. He took off his invisibility cloak and glanced at the map. He was standing right behind her, but he couldn't see anything. He smiled to himself, Jasmine had gotten an invisibility cloak for her birthday last year. He slipped his cloak back on and crept out of the window. He reached out his hand and found something silky. He pulled off Jasmine's cloak and saw her jump.
"Who's there?" She asked. Fred pulled off his cloak and smiled at her. Jasmine punched him and said. "You jerk, you almost gave me a heart attack!" He sat down next to her and asked. "What the hell are you doing out here this late?" Jasmine shrugged.
"Thinking, enjoying the silence,"
"Sorry about that, guess I ruined it," Jasmine smiled and said. "I like having you here, silence does get boring," Fred beamed at her and asked. "What have you been thinking about?"
"You already probably know, but about when Snape hit me. I mean, with everything that's happened over the years; The Sorcerers Stone. The Chamber Of Secrets, and the whole Sirius thing. All through those times I felt safe at Hogworts, like no matter what happened I could be here and be safe. When Snape hit me, I felt unsafe for the first time since I first stepped foot in this castle. I know he wouldn't ever seriously hurt me, but still. I don't know what I'm thinking, that all must've sounded like shit," Fred looked into her eyes and put his arm around her.
"Hey, that didn't sound like shit. If this makes you feel any better, I'll make sure nothing bad happens to you. As long as I'm here, George too, I guess, nothing bad will happen to you," Jasmine leaned up against Fred and he wrapped his arms around her.
"That was the sweetest, most unlike you thing I've ever heard," Fred laughed and said "Hey, I'll take that," They sat like that for a moment, their hearts beating in sync.
"Fred, is this the way we're supposed to go?"
"What do you mean?"
"Is this supposed to happen? We're gonna go out and have fun in the process. But if we break up, it'll change everything. The three of us won't be inseparable anymore,"
"Why so certain we'd break up?"
"I'm not certain, I'm just if we did break up," There was a long pause, then Fred said. "Let's just see what happens. We'' act like nothing ever happened, and if it happens, then it happens," Jasmine nodded. She looked up at him and leaned forward a little. Fred closed his eyes, leaned forward and kissed her. The kiss was long and passionate, and Jasmine gave a little smile.
"Jazzy, I,"
"Shh," Jasmine said and placed two fingers on his lips.
"Let's just watch the sun rise," Fred sighed and held her closer.
