Chapter 3
Later on, me and Fred were the only ones in our group in the common room. George and Alicia were somewhere, probably snogging in a broom closet but what do I know. Angelina still hates me so I don't really expect to see her anytime soon and Lee was…off somewhere being Lee I suppose.
"What do you wanna do?" Fred asked.
"I don't know. It's already so boring here and we haven't even been back a day yet!"
"I know. Wanna start planning our first prank of the year?"
"Don't we need George and Lee to do that? They'll get mad if we start planning without them."
"Well they'll have to get over it won't they."
"Yeah I suppose," I answered, leaning on the couch. "Fred?"
"Yeah Katie-Kat?"
"I missed you," I said.
"I missed you too," Fred told me, pulling me into his lap.
"How was your vacation?" I asked. "I wanted to see you all summer. Where were you?"
"Mum was keeping me and George under lock down all summer. She's still mad at us for working on our joke shop stuff."
"Oh yeah how is that?"
"It's going good."
"That's good."
"Yeah. What did you do during break?"
"Nothing. I have a question Fred."
"Yeah?"
"Do you believe Harry? That you-know-who returned?"
"Yeah Katie, I believe him," Fred told me. His brown eyes were looking into my hazel ones more seriously then I'd ever seen them. They were always sparkling, joking.
"I believe him too," I told him.
"You should tell him. He's afraid of coming back, I think."
"Where is he?" I asked.
"Don't tell him now!" Fred exclaimed.
"What? You just told me to go talk to him."
"I meant later," Fred said. "I'm hungry."
"We just ate two hours ago, Fred!"
"So? I'm hungry again," Fred exclaimed standing up. He grabbed my hand and pulled me up. "Let's go to the kitchen."
"Fine," I said sighing.
We snuck out of the common room and walked carefully to the kitchen. Fred made a 'stay there' motion and looked around the corner. Then he made a 'follow me' gesture and then he disappeared around the corner. I tried to follow him, but I didn't see him.
"Fred?" I whispered. "Fred where are you?"
Just then somebody tapped me on the shoulder. I squealed and turned around. I saw Fred standing there, laughing silently. I hit his shoulder feeling extremely angry at him.
"Fred Alfred Weasley!" I shouted at him.
"Katie be quiet! Filch will hear us!"
"Then you shouldn't have done that if you're so worried!"
"I'm not worried!"
"Whatever you say," I said.
Fred picked me up and started twirling me. I squealed and started to laugh.
"Fred!" I shouted. "Put me down!"
"No I don't want to."
"You're gonna make me sick!" I said.
Fred sighed as he stopped, but didn't put me down. He stared walking to the kitchen. When he got to the portrait he tickled the pear and the door opened. We were met by all the little house elves.
"Master Weasley! Misses Bell!" They said, fighting to get our attention. I recognized a few of the house elves. One got Fred's attention.
"Hmm…Can I have chocolate ice cream and Katie'll have vanilla ice cream right Katie?"
"Yup."
God Fred knows me so well. He may even know me better then I know myself…god that sounds stupid. Oh well. My summer was so boring because I couldn't see Fred. He had to stay home like ALL summer. The only fun part was when I went to my brother's house and my family reunion.
"Katie!" My older cousin, Leticia squealed. Leticia is eighteen, two years older than me. She has extremely curly blonde hair and green-blue eyes.
"Leti!" I exclaimed. "I missed you!"
"I missed you too!" She said. She flashed her ring finger at me and I saw the unmistakable engagement ring.
"You're engaged?!" I squealed.
"It happened two nights ago," She told me. "Daniel is around here somewhere."
"You mean the extremely hot boyfriend?"
"Yes," she said. "And how is yours?"
"You know I don't have a boyfriend," I said.
"Sure you don't. What about that boy you're always talking about? Fred?"
"He's not my boyfriend!" I exclaimed, blushing.
"But you like him?" She asked. I nodded. "Then you should do something about it."
"Like what?"
"Tell him how you feel."
"What if he doesn't feel the same way?"
"What guy wouldn't feel the same way?"
"I don't know…I just don't want to ruin the relationship I have with Fred."
"Fine, don't tell him," Leticia exclaimed crossing her arms. "But you should tell him by the end of the year."
"I'll think about it."
"Katie? What are you thinking about?" Fred's voice brought me back to the present.
"Sorry. I was just thinking."
"What about?"
"My family reunion."
"Did you see Leti?" He asked.
"Yeah," I responded."She's engaged now actually."
"Tell her congratulations," Fred told me.
"Sure," I said.
"Did I tell you Ron's a prefect?"
"No!" I gasped.
"Yes."
"I can't believe your brothers a prefect. Your mum must be so proud."
"Too proud if you ask me," Fred grumbled.
"Aw, you're just jealous."
"I'm not jealous of my little brother."
"Yes you are," I said when one of the house-elves came over and put our ice cream in front of us. "Thanks."
"You're welcome Misses Bell."
"I want chocolate," I said as Fred took a bite of his ice cream. He rolled his eyes.
"Do you always do this?" He asked as he gave me his spoon. I ate what was on the spoon and gave it back.
"Yeah, I'll always do that," I said eating my own ice cream.
"Are you going to do the spell so we can talk in class or should I do it?"
"You can do it," I answered.
"Ok. I'll do it tonight."
"You mean later tonight?"
"You know what I mean."
"I know," He said.
Twenty minutes later, we snuck back into the common room and we saw Harry, Hermione, and Ron sitting in the back quietly. We both walked over to them and I sat down next to Ron.
"So, Ronnie-kins," I started. He glowered at me. I started laughing.
"Don't call me that Katie!" He exclaimed.
"Nah I never listen to anybody. Anyways I hear you're a little prefect," I said looking at him. His ears started to redden like Fred's does when he's embarrassed.
"You told her?" Ron whined to Fred.
"Hey don't whine at me!" He exclaimed.
"Harry I gotta talk to you," I said.
"Ok," He said standing up. "I'll be right back."
I led him to another corner that was empty. I hugged him.
"How are you doing?" I asked.
"I'm alright."
"You know I'm here for you?"
"Yeah I know, Katie. And I thank you for that."
"I believe you, Harry."
"That's one more on my tiny list of people who believe me."
"Harry ignore them. They weren't there. They don't know."
"You weren't there either," he reminded me.
"Still I've known you for like five years. I believe you one hundred percent."
"Thanks Katie," He said hugging me.
"You're welcome Harry."
