But thanks for adding it to your favorite stories list, alert list, and to those few, reviewing!! It really means a lot!!!

The light hit her again her eyes hard. She turned over in hopes to continue her sleep but with no success after lying in bed for 15 minutes she decided that it would be best to get up and shower. An hour later Hermione emerged to breakfast in a pair of jeans a plaid rib cage shirt. Her hair in perfect ringlets and simple eyeliner and mascara enhanced her facial features.
The clock read that it was 8AM. She had another hour before work. She went into the kitchen to get some coffee and a light breakfast. Harry and Ginny were already waiting for her with Fred. She walked over to the table and sat at the end facing Ginny.

"Hermione, Fred tells us about the apartment Draco sold you two. Are you two really moving out so quickly?" Hermione nodded.

"I'm sorry if this seems a little rushed Ginny, I'm not trying to make it seem like I'm in a rush to get out. I love living here with you, Harry, and baby James, but it truly was too good of an offer to pass up. Actually if you don't have anything planned Fred and I would like to show you the flat. Is that okay?" Ginny and Harry agreed. Ginny grabbed baby James and flooed to Hermione and Fred's flat. Ginny's jaw dropped.

"Hermione! Fred! This is beautiful! Is that a library? Four rooms? Hermione this was a steal!" Hermione took James into her arms and took Ginny on a tour of the flat. Meanwhile Harry and Fred took a walk on the grounds outside. They had a fair sized patio overlooking a beautiful pond. And luckily for Fred there was a quidditch pitch after the pond.

"Fred, I'm not trying to pry into either one of your lives but Hermione is my best friend. Like the sister I never had, and I really don't want anyone judging her by her living arrangements. You know how your mother feels about her children living in sin." Fred nodded fully understanding Harry and expecting this conversation to come up.

"Harry, Hermione is a good person. I was interested in this flat too. The other one reminded me too much of Angelina and Wood together and I didn't want to live there anymore. This is only temporary until one of us finds something better. Hermione and I are just friends and I'll explain it to my mother." Harry patted Fred on the back and continued to walk the grounds.
While the two guys walked down to the quidditch pitch Ginny and Hermione were in the main bathroom.

"Hermione, is there something going on between you and Fred?" Hermione turned to look her in the eye. Hermione couldn't help but to be amused. She knew she was going to hear this for a while and she might as well get used to it.

"Ginny I just got back four days ago. How can there possibly be anything going on between Fred and I? I just agreed to share this flat with him until one of us finds something better. You know he's still hurting about Angelina, Ginny."

"Yea that witch really messed with him I feel so bad for him. He was really good to her Hermione. Not just cause he was my brother but I mean he paid for her University fees and really helped her out. He was the perfect boyfriend Hermione honestly and it shocked me cause you'd think a prankster wouldn't be like that but he was. And he made me proud but then it turns out she cheated on him. That was just low."

"Yea, poor Fred he really didn't deserve that. But he'll move on he's a great guy and he's very attractive, I'll bet as soon as the word gets out that he's single he'll have a queue of nice single girls wanting to date him."

"Yea, your right. Don't you two have to be at work already? Hermione looked at her watch. It was 8:50.

"Yea lets go find Fred."

"No need I'm right here. Lets go before the boss gets mad."

"Fred you are the boss." Fred shook his head in amusement.

"I know and I would hate to infuriate myself!" Hermione laughed and apparated to the shop. She did inventory and as soon as the first customer was ready she began to work the cash register. Around one Alicia showed up by herself. She had lunch plans with George but invited Hermione and Fred to go along with them. To say it was awkward would be putting it lightly. So Alicia decided to start the conversation up.

"So Hermione, I hear your living with Harry and Ginny. Roxy was rather upset that'd you rather spend time with a baby then her. Daddy's girl you know. Always wanting attention."

"Umm, Yea I was staying with them but Fred and I found an apartment near Diagon Ally that we couldn't pass on. We're planning on moving in tonight." Alicia gasped.

"I didn't know you two were involved! That's great! Fred I'm so glad that you've moved on from Angelina! She really didn't deserve you. With all the cheating that she did. I'm glad we got marvelous potions and spells cause otherwise the diseases you would have had would have murdered you by now!" Hermione's eyes widen. Fred looked pale and very upset.

"Alicia, Fred and I aren't a couple. We're just roommates for the time being." Alicia facial color slowly drained.

"Oh, Fred I'm sorry. I thought you knew. I perhaps thought you didn't care. Oh blimy I screwed up. I'm truly sorry Fred. Forgive me?" Fred look up. Anger clearly visable.

"Alicia. If you knew Angelina was screwing around why didn't you have the decency to tell me? You just let me make a complete and udder fool of myself for a woman who I dreamt of spending the rest of my life with. I'm sorry Alicia but I'm not sure that I can ever forgive you for something that low." Fred stood up dropped a couple of galleons on the table and left. Alicia bowed her head tears burning at her eyes. Hermione stood and ran after Fred.

"Fred. Fred! FRED WEASLY IF YOU DON'T STOP I'M GOING TO HEX YOU!" Fred stopped. Hermione finally reached him and saw the tears in his eyes. She wiped them and he opened his arms. She went to hug him. He grabbed her and just swayed a little with her. After about 2 minutes of swaying, Hermione decided to apparate them to the flat. She went into the kitchen and heated up some water for tea. She went to sit on the sofa with him and just let him lay his head on her lap. She looked down at him he had very strong features. His eyes were closed and she was slowly stroking his hair. Which was amazingly enough soft as silk. She felt compelled to stroke his chin, and as soon as she did, his eyes flew open. She was startled but smiled at him who began to study her features.

"Your beautiful, you know that? You breathtakingly beautiful."

"Thank you Fred." He smiled.

"So lets talk about it." Hermione looked confused.

"Talk about what Fred?"

"Angelina." Hermione began to realize he was actually going to confide in her which confused her. They we're barley on friendly terms. Sure she had kissed him but it was a force of habit. In spain everyone kissed each other. To say 'hello' ,to say 'goodbye', to say 'goodnight'. Given they were kisses on the cheeks but she was curious to see how Fred's lips felt. That's not bad is it? It's natural human curiosity.

"Fred, if your not ready to talk about it I understand I don't want you to go through anything you don't have to." Fred smiled.

"Hermione if I don't tell someone about this soon I'm going to have a mental breakdown. Just listen to me okay?" Hermione nodded and Fred began his tale.

'My sixth year, during the Yule Ball, Angelina and I were best friends. We told each other everything and did so many things together, I had her on a pedestal, so I decided to ask her to the Yule Ball. When she accepted I was ecstatic, I did everything I could I sold all our merchandise and bought her the most beautiful dress I could find. She loved it and I was happy. When she was happy, I was happy. I realized that I loved her then the ball came and she came down looking as beautiful as ever. She had a light about her that was just illuminating. When she was happy, I was content. When she was sad, I was distraught. She pretty much ruled my life. Then I got out of Hogwarts and began making money. She always wanted something expensive and well I was more then happy to give it to her. She was the love of my life. Then we finally moved in together. I started noticing her late nights. She would always have to go to a friends house to study. Deep down I knew what she was doing and to this day that's what makes me sad. That she was like that. But I couldn't open my eyes to see that. All I saw was my best friend at Hogwarts. The beautiful girl I was in love with. Now what's hurting the most is that I was played. But I knew it the whole time." Fred sighed he dug his face into Hermione's stomach, and sighed again.

"Fred, she was your first love they'll be more. You got everything going for you. Your very handsome, your young, extremely intelligent. Fred you can do so much better."

Fred sat up straight. He looked at Hermione and froze. Maybe I can do a lot better.

He stroked Hermione's hair and then suddenly kissed her. She responded quickly, almost like she had been expecting it. He parted and looked in her eyes.

"I'm sorry Hermione. I'm very attracted to you. I'm not sure what I want at this point I want to be with you but I can't offer you anything emotionally stable. You probably think I'm crazy. I wouldn't be mad it you would reject me right now." Hermione smiled.

"I'm not looking for anything serious. But a little company wouldn't hurt. Fred you're a good person. But take it a little slow. Who knows you might not like me a week from now."

"That could never happen. You lifted me from the rut I was in and there's no way I could let you slip from my life at this point. And you did it all in three days. Your amazing. Theres no way I could ever be don't thanking you Hermione." Hermione leaned in and gave him a quick peck on the lips before disappearing and reappearing with two cups of tea. Fred took one and drank it. Hermione put her head on his shoulder and sighed.

"Nothing short of eventful. Good ole England." Fred laughed and kissed Hermione on the cheek.

"Lets go get our stuff from Ginny's house." They both stood up and floo'd to Grimwauld Place. Soon enough with the help of shrinking, levitating, and transporting spells everything was in place back at their new flat. It looked a lot smaller now that it had all their stuff but not much. It still was a big flat. Fred stood up and decided he was gonna make them dinner. He prepared Chicken Alfredo with steamed asparagus and Hermione made some breadsticks. They both finished cleaning up the kitchen afterwards and decided they needed to go to bed.

Hermione was about to slip in bed when she heard a soft knock. That would ruin everything. It's bad enough this is moving too fast. This is why I didn't want to come back.
"Come in."

"Can I sleep here tonight?"
"Why?"

"I just want to hold you Hermione. Nothing else. I promise" She nodded and they both climbed into bed. Soon enough Hermione's breath was at a steady speed and was asleep. His heartbeat had a soothing effect. She was still a little worried. Why was all this happening? It was too random. It made no sense. But she had to admit it was exciting.
