The next day, Hermione and Ginny got up very early in the morning, being the first in the house. They did their morning activities and ate breakfast in the Great Hall. The day has come to implement their plan. They just wanted to make sure that Fred was honest with the brown haired girl and really wanted to mend their troubled relationship and start the S.P.E.W., and most importantly, to some inexplicably humiliate the redhead. Of course, it wasn't anything terrible, but for the perfect Mr. Weasley, it was a disgrace. In less than half an hour, the meal would be over, and then the classes would begin. Which meant that the twins would, as always, at the last minute come out of their cavity called the dormitory and go to breakfast. Girls ready to implement their plan were walking down the corridor near the Fat Lady's portrait. They tried to hand out badges of an organization founded by a brown-haired girl. At one point, they noticed that two redheads had come out of the common room, but pretended not to see them.
G: Hermione! Please, let's leave it!
He: No! This is the only time of the day when I have time to hand out these badges!
G: Let's go to breakfast and distribute it after school! I'm hungry!
He: No! Then I learn, I have a few papers to write! I won't have time for this!
The smiling twins approached the quarreling friends.
F: Hey, are you going to breakfast?
G: No, because this stubborn man insisted on handing out W.E.S.Z badges now!
Ge: Are you still playing the savior of the house elf world?
He: That's not funny, George! I have fun anyway, but I have so much learning that I don't have time after that, and no one but Ginny wants to help me with that!
Ge: Don't be angry, Sun, but it's crap. (Hermione glared at him).
F: I can help you, I don't have many classes today.
G: You? Will it not hurt the popular mister? S.P.E.W is ridiculed.
Ge: Don't do this!
F: I can handle it!
He: That's great! (She gave him a cardboard box with name tags on it.) Thank you for your help, at dinner tonight, tell me how it went! Are we going Ginny?
The surprised girl only nodded her consent, and then departed with her friend for her classes.
Ge: What have you done, you idiot! They were hitting you! Now get over it, no one normal will take it! If you damage our brand, it will kill you!
F: Shut up! I know it was a test, but I can't fail it! Otherwise, Hermione wouldn't let me get close. Badge?
Ge: (Sighed) Come on! Give one a lover! After all, the crush on Fred Weasley is new, and you need to help him. We will give them to the first and second-graders. (The redhead looked shocked at his younger twin). I won't leave you alone with this shit.
The day ended fairly quickly. Hermione studied or wrote papers all day. At that time, the twins tried to hand out badges, which was not so easy. Only the first and second years took them willingly. The rest of the students laughed at them, which was new to the brothers, but they didn't care. It's dinner time. Redheads with Angelina, who hugged her boyfriend, sat in the Great Hall and ate a meal. After a while, a happy brown haired girl joined them. She sat down across from them. She put a Greek salad on her plate and poured some orange juice into a glass. The brothers watched her with fear in their eyes. They didn't want to do something wrong again, especially Fred, who tried to show his best. He had denied his feelings too long. Now that he realized them, he had no intention of giving up the beautiful witch.
He: I'm proud of you gentlemen. I saw badges everywhere today.
F: Hey, what gentlemen have given out badges myself.
He: Oh, stop it! I know George helped you. You always do everything together.
F: Not true! (He said indignantly).
He: No? You sleep, you eat, you learn, you make jokes together! You are thinking the same at any given moment. You do literally everything together! I suspect you even like the same girls.
F: I know one that I like and George doesn't.
He: I would like to meet her, she has to be special. (She started laughing). Anyway, it does not matter! Thank you for your help.
F: You know her ...
A: Can someone explain to me what badges are you talking about ?!
Ge: We helped give Hermione the S.P.E.W badges.
A: You two? (She looked at them in surprise). Are you sick? You have to go to the hospital wing?
F: We're not sick, we just wanted to help our friend (He smiled at Hermione, and she smiled back).
He: Yes, and they did a great job. They gave them all away, but why only among the younger years?
F: Older age groups are not ... (Brother interrupted him as he noticed that his twin was about to say something stupid).
Ge: We decided that in such an important matter, we should educate from childhood. (Fred looked surprised at his brother).
He: You're right! I did not expect such an involvement from you!
A: Me too. I'm in shock!
Everyone went back to eating. Fred kept looking at Hermione with a smile. He believed that even when he eats and has full lips, he looks captivating and sweet. He wanted to never argue with her again, to be able to hug her or kiss her. You live once, he said. He was trying to get her from yesterday, but he decided to take a risk and invite the girl for a walk tomorrow.
F: Hermione ...
He: What's up, Fredward? (She looked at him with a smile.)
F: Maybe, after school tomorrow, we will go for a walk in the grounds?
He: (She was silent for a moment. She didn't expect such an offer). Sorry, but I can't. I go with Ginny to pick up our wedding dresses at Hogsmeade, and then help Ernie with the potions. Maybe another time.
F: Sure, maybe on a different date (He said, disappointed with brown-head girl answer).
Ginny ran into the Great Hall, nervous and excited at the same time. She approached her friends quickly. The moment she stopped, she couldn't catch her breath. Everyone knew it must have been linked to Bill's wedding, since she became a bridesmaid, Fleur. She didn't talk about anything else. Her whole life revolved around organizing this wedding. She exchanged owls practically non-stop with her brother or future sister-in-law. For nearly three hours, she chose her wedding gowns, which was a torture for Hermione and Angelina go to Hogsmeade with her.
Ge: Ginny, what happened?
G: Hermione! You can't guess what I found out! DO YOU KNOW WHO WILL BE AT THE WEDDING?!
He: No, but you'll probably tell me right now.
G: VIKTOR KRUM !
He: Are you kidding ?! I haven't seen him for almost two years!
G: No, I just got an owl from Bill that he confirmed his arrival! He was asking for you! He wanted to know if you would too!
A: MERLIN! He is so handsome! And during the Triwizard Tournament, he kept his eyes on you! You lucky! Maybe something will come of it!
He: I guess I'll be offended by him! In the last letter, he didn't mention it to me!
A and F: Are you writing with him?! (They shouted simultaneously).
He: Yes! We exchange owls regularly, twice a month. Unfortunately we cannot more often because of the distance.
G: Oh Mother! HERMIONE! We have not yet chosen shoes and accessories for your and my outfits! COME! WE MUST DO IT!
He: We can do it tomorrow when we pick up the dresses?
A: What are you talking about! You must look phenomenal when you meet this sweet cake! His jaw must drop to the floor when he sees you! (George tried to get his girlfriend's attention, but she ignored him.)
G: Angelina is right! There is nothing to wait for. Let's go! (She looked at her brother's girlfriend.) Are you going with us? You have great taste!
A: Sure! I have to choose something myself! After all, I have to look divine too!
Ginny and Angelina enthusiastically headed to the dormitories, dragging a not-so-happy Hermione, who didn't like spending time beautifying her appearance. Unfortunately, her friends made her do it. They chose accessories for almost three hours, commenting on brown-hair girl relationship with the Bulgarian. The young witch didn't like very much for this topic. She thought it was her private affair, but in the end she had no secrets from them. They were like sisters to her, especially Ginny. At the same time, in the Great Hall, the twins didn't quite understand what had just happened before the girls left them in a rush. They acted amok, didn't contact them, what mattered was only their conversation.
Ge: (He said, laughing). What just happened here?
F: I don't know (Stated sad).
Ge: What's up?
F: When will she finally start noticing me?
Ge: You've been trying for it since yesterday! Hermione isn't a chick that you smile at and will be yours. It will take you some time to forgive and trust you. It won't be for now.
F: Why is all this so hard !?
Ge: I don't know, man. (He said in a depressed voice). Oh, come on! We'll plant a Dungbomb in Umbridge's office. We haven't made a joke in a long time! Your mood will improve!
F: I can't get detention before the wedding because they won't let me go home.
Ge: So what ?! You've never bothered about such things. You didn't even want to go to that wedding. What changed?
F: Because ... I ... This ... Well ...
Ge: You agreed ?!
F: Yes ...
Ge: Who knows about it?
F: Only Bill. Look, I don't wanna do it myself ... Want to join?
Ge: Are you kidding ?! Sure! It will be awesome!
F: You're a good brother. Come on, let's go smoke a pipe to the grounds.
Ge: I'm running, brother!
The next day, each student's lessons dragged on mercilessly. When they finally finished, the girls went to Hogsmeade, where they spent much more time than they intended, since Hermione couldn't decide which purse to choose. It was probably the first time in her life that a girl could not make up her mind. She didn't know why this was so. Maybe she wanted to please someone, some redheaded boy. They returned after more than two hours. The brown haired woman immediately ran to the library, where angry Ernie was waiting for her. The boy from the Room of Requirement incident involving Fred and Hermione was flustered, rude and rude to everyone, especially the Weasley.
He: Hi! Sorry I'm late, but my trip to Hogsmeade took a little longer.
E: Nothing happened. We start?
He: Yeah sure!
They started learning, but Macmillan couldn't concentrate. He was distracted by everything, Hermione noticed.
He: What's going on?
E: Nothing
He: I can see!
E: I just don't understand why you're going to the Burrow tomorrow, it's not your family!
He: The Weasley are like family to me. I spend every vacation with them, and Bill and Fleur are really great! Besides, I don't understand, what does it matter ?!
E: I'm worried about you ... I see this family, especially one member hurting you, and you forgive him right away. Enough, silly, sorry. I believe you should cut yourself off from them.
He: (She got furious). For your information, the Weasley don't hurt me! They've never hurt me, and as for Fred, I haven't forgiven him at all, and I'm not going to, and certainly won't cut off contact with them because that's what you want!
E: Yeah, sure ... I saw you at dinner yesterday! He made butter eyes for you all the time, and you succumbed to him!
He: He helped me with S.P.E.W, nothing more ... WAIT! ARE YOU JEALOUS OF WEASLEY?!
E: I just don't want him to hurt you again. I care about you very much
He: We've established that we are just friends
E: You said so ... I ...
He: Stop! I'm disappointed in you. I have to go.
Hermione left the library furious. She went straight to the common room. Unexpectedly, she ran into the twins on the way, but ignored them despite calling for her. She ran into her dormitory, then lay down on the bed. She wanted to be alone with her thoughts. Maybe Ernie was right? Didn't she forgive too quickly? Fred had hurt her so many times, and after one good deed, she was able to have a few sentences with him, and she promised herself that she would never do it again! She had to think about it, but she would definitely not break contact with the Weasley, because some boy also didn't want her, he wants it!
