I don't own any of the Harry Potter rights, they belong to J.K. Rowling and Warner Bros.

Okay, here is Chapter 9. I hope you enjoy it, and Review, Review, Review (Please).

My story picks up with Fred and Angelina's year 7 (HP book 5 OotP, between chapter 20&21)... Here goes!


"Who's coming to pick you up?" Alicia asked Angelina as they finished packing for the Christmas holiday.

"Im not sure I have to go check and see if I got an owl but I think it's Terie'." Angelina answered as she continued packing. "She's supposed to spend the holiday at our house this year."

Angelina knew why Terie' was going to spend the holiday with them. After Fred yelled at her, she'd written a 7 page letter to her cousin crying the whole time. And now Terie' felt it was her duty to set things right between Angelina and the love of her life (as Terie' put it).

"It must be so cool to have her for a cousin." Alicia said " Is she going to put out any new music?"

"Not that I know of. I think she's going to take a year off, she said she burned out with the muggle tour and all"

"Oh, wow that must be so exciting. To have a record for both our world and the muggle world." Alicia said "Anyway, do you wanna exchange gifts now or on Christmas morning?"

"Umm lets do it Christmas morning, I still have wrapping to do anyway. " Angelina said slightly put out.

"So do I, I'll go get Katie and we can have a wrap party." Alicia said as she headed for the door.

10 minuets later Alicia arrived back in the room with Katie who carried a basket slightly smaller then she was full of different items Angelina could only assume were gifts.

"Thanks for coming to get me. I need to finish wrapping these." Katie said as she sat on the foot of Alicia's bed.

"I've wrapped the gifts for the two of you, here you can take them home with you." Alicia said as she handed Angelina and Katie a small box each wrapped in bright blue paper with snowflakes on it.

"Me to, there the only ones I've got to" said Angelina with a smile. She handed Katie and Alicia a medium box each with red wrapping paper. The paper had two kids making a snowman on it.

After taking the box and adding it to her basket Katie pulled out three pair of bright orange socks, with green strips that flashed at an alarming pace from her basket. She looked up to see horror on both Angelina and Alicia's face.

She laughed out loud "Gag gift for the boys, they glow in the dark"

"Oh" Alicia said laughing now herself. "Speaking of boys, look what I got George"

As Katie looked and the sweater Alicia was showing her, Angelina looked at her own pile of to be wrapped gifts. Peaking out was a book. "5 Easy Steps to Starting a Successful Business". Angelina had picked it up for Fred thinking it would be a great help if he really wanted to give this Joke Shop thing a go. She was going to give it to him for Christmas along with The Ultimate fan Weird Sisters Recording. While talking to Fred at the beginning of school he had said how much he wanted it, and one handkerchief.

The handkerchief was for sentimental reasons. While at the Yule Ball last year, Angelina had a small sneezing fit. Fred not having a tissue snatched the handkerchief out of Longbottom's pocket to give to her. That summer while shopping she had wondered by some handkerchiefs, which bought back memories. She bought a dark red silk one and got his initials FW monogrammed on it.

Now what was she going to do with it.

"Angelina, are you listening?" Katie asked. "What did you get your mother?"

"Oh, I got her a new Coach purse" Angelina said joining the conversation.


"Thanks for coming with me Angelina" Oliver said as they made their way through Diagon Alley.

"No problem, what is it you have to take back again"

"I have to take back my mothers coat... I got the wrong size" Oliver said looking somewhat angry.

" Well you did try" Angelina said as she smiled and nudged Oliver.

After the nudge of affection from Angelina, Oliver reached down to lock his hand with hers entwining their fingers.

As Angelina looked down at their hands she also looked at the watch Oliver had got her for Christmas for the tenth time today. It had a gold color band, the face of the watch was square not round with a tiny girl angel floating around. When you looked at the angel she would blow you a kiss, the kiss would grow into a heart, pop and display the time. Angelina thought it was quite cute though unexpected as a first Christmas gift from Oliver. Hell, she had only bought him a book on Quidditch.

Hours later they were loaded with several after Christmas sales bags.

"You wanna go get a butterbeer?" Oliver asked

"Yah, it's getting cold out here"

As Oliver and Angelina walked toward the pub, Oliver spotted three familiar faces before Angelina did.

"Oi, look it's Lee, Fred and George" Oliver said as he headed toward them, because their fingers were still entwined Angelina had no choice but to follow.

"Hey mates" Oliver called over to the group.

Fred, George and Lee all looked over at the voice at the same time. Angelina saw the physical change in Fred.

"Hey Oliver, Angelina" Lee was the first to speak.

" Hi guys" Angelina said trying to keep her voice as normal as possible. She also tried to take her hand out of Oliver's but he seemed to have a death grip on it.

"How are you?" Angelina said. She meant to ask the group but she was staring at Fred, Fred in return was staring at Angelina and Oliver's hand.

"We're good, just stopped by to pick up a few things." George answered.

"Us to, Angelina loves to shop" Oliver said as he smiled at Angelina.

"We're going to get a butterbeer, would you mates like to join us? Oliver asked

"No, we're leaving" Fred said as he turned on his heal and started walking toward the exit of Diagon Alley.

"See ya mate." Lee said as he hurried after Fred

"Maybe another time" George said as he followed his brother and Lee.

"You ready for that drink?" Oliver asked not noticing anything out of the ordinary. He took the back of Angelina's hand and kissed it.

"Yes" was all Angelina could get out.

Smiling, they took two steps toward the pub before Oliver fell flat on his face. Because he was still holding Angelina's had she went down to.

"What happened"Angelina said trying to right herself.

"I think I tripped over something" Oliver said while getting to his knees and collecting their bags.

Angelina looked around but didn't see anything on the ground Oliver could have tripped on. As she looked up she happen to catch Fred eyes just as he turned a corner.


"Is everyone ready and packed" Mrs. Weasley asked as she passed Fred and George's room. "They will be here in no time to take you back to school."

"Were almost finished" George called out.

" Oh, before I forget, Fred tell Angelina I said thank you." Mrs. Weasley said as she entered Ginny's room.

"Angelina... thank you, for what" Fred asked confused.

"For the card she gave your father while he was in hospital dear." Ms Weasley said as she continued down the hall.

"I'm done. I'll meet you down stairs" Fred said to George as he headed out of the room. After walking down the flight of stairs, he entered the sitting room. Look quickly through a stack of get well cards until he came across one with Angelina's writing in it. It was a simple get well card, expressing warm wishes on the outside. The inside had a hand written note from Angelina.

"Mr. Weasley, I hope you have a quick recovery, and you're on your feet... learning more and more about muggles in no time. The love of your family and friends should help you get through this in no time. Get Well real soon. Angelina" the card read. Fred read it twice before putting it back with the others.
