"Rambling"
by SJRegina

Hermione always found herself rambling whenever in the presence of the one and only Fred Weasley, but that's just how Fred liked it.

Chapter 5: Gideon & Fabian Prewett

Harry, Hermione, and the twins were sharing horror stories with each other. Harry and Hermione told them the ones they knew in the Muggle world while Fred and George told the ones from the Wizarding World. All of them listening intently to each other's stories.

It wasn't until Hermione let out a very exhausted yawn that they finally called it quits for the night. Hermione was really sleepy now, she wanted to go back to her own bed even if she was really alone.

But there was one problem.

"Uhmm, Fred, George, how am I supposed to go back home?" Panic in her voice as she swallowed a lump of saliva loudly.

Fred and George looked at each other in terror and panic and looked back to Hermione then down at the floor and sighed. It always amazed her how they always did a lot of things in sync.

"George, desperate times call for desperate measures." Fred gulped loudly.

"Freddie, Plan M has to be initiated immediately." Then both of them shivered violently.

The twins imeediately ran to their trunks and pulled out a tin full of what looked like candle wax. Fred ran to the their wardrobe and opened it and pulled out a rectangular shaped foam with a garter strap.

He threw one to George and threw another one to Hermione.

"What in Circe's name is this?" Hermione looked at the foam with a raised brow.

"That Hermione, is what shall save your bum." Hermione blushed fiercly at George's bluntness.

"Put on the foam Hermione." Fred told her with piercing eyes that made Hermione blush more.

"Excuse me?" Hermione was once again startled by how blunt he was.

"Put it on, follow our lead." Fred pointed to George using his lips and slipped on the garter strap with the foam covering his arse.

After staring at the foam in disgrace, Hermione put it on and bit her lip to hold her laugh.

"What exactly IS Plan M?" Hermione finally asked after the twins had their 'safety gear' on.

The twins looked at each other for a moment before saying, "Plan Molly."

Oh boy.

~.~

"Fred and George Weasley!" Molly screamed at the top of her lungs. Yep, this was what Fred had expected. He had seen this coming. Well, the screaming that is. But the look at her mother's face showed sorrow.

"So that was what the candle wax was for." Hermione murmured under her breath standing between the twins.

Molly went closer to them with a stern look and Fred and George closed their eyes, knowing what might happen next.

Except, that was not what happened at all.

Molly hugged the three of them in a bone-crushing hug and started to cry.

Fred, George, and Hermione had their eyes wide open in shock. They had anticipated a much different reaction.

"Mum, as much as we love being crushed like this."

"It gets in the way of breathing!"

Molly let go of them and wiped her tears with a napkin she conjured. The three tweens were blue with the need of air.

"Oh I'm sorry dear. I just missed them a lot, you three remind me so much of Fabian and Gideon and me when we were so young." Molly gave a faint smile and sat on the nearest chair at the kitchen.

Hermione felt a feeling of pity for the woman. And awe. All of her troubles and need to get home, replaced by the feeling.

"Mrs. Weasley, would you mind telling me a bit about them. You know, if it's alright." She glanced at Fred and George and gave them a small smile. "Fred and George seem to be very fond of them."

"Oh no, not at all Hermione dear. And please call me Molly." Molly gave a beaming smile to Hermione.

"Oh where do I begin?" Molly looked at the ceiling with a sad look on her eyes though she were smiling.

"When I was young, I didn't have that much friends. Really. Fabian and Gideon were my brothers and bestfriends at the same time."

Hermione found herself smiling at Molly's memory. It is how she felt with the twins.

"Oh, and they were so careless with these things. The bands you're wearing right now, that has a third one actually. Well since you duplicated it, a 4th one I suppose. They gave one to a bird named Altheia Leicester. A bit odd to me, but Gideon was quite fond of her."

"But I thought Uncle Gideon never married?" George interrupted her mother.

"Well, I was just going to say that." Molly have a stern look to George that made him flush from embaressment. "What I was saying was that, he didn't deserve her. Replaced him with some bloke. And they seemed to be good for each other. She was bright and inventive. Must be why those have got kinks."

The mood was starting to get awkward as Molly went on with her story-telling from narrative to nostalgic.

"Why am I even saying this? Forget all about that. Oh Hermione! I forgot all about you, I'm sorry." Molly gave a kind smile to Hermione which made Hermione miss her own mother.

"Oh, it's okay really. They're away for a while. Would you mind if I stay here for a few nights?" Hermione looked at Molly with puppy-dog eyes that were just too adorable to say no to.

"Yeah mum!"

"We'll take really good care of her!"

After a few moments, "Fine." Molly sighed before smiling at them. She lifted a finger and pointed it to the twins.

"But you're not going to sleep with them. No. You can room in with Ginny if that's alright."

"Oh, Ginny. She's Fred and George's sister right?" Hermione piped it up after hearing Fred and George, and occasionally Ron about her.

"Yes dear."

"I wouldn't mind!" Hermione let out a happy giggle. She needed girl friends. She was surrounded by too much guy friends.

"Better go back to sleep then, off you go. I'll transfigure some clothes for you Hermione, we'll talk more tomorrow. And Ginny's room is on the top floor, first one to the right. Bedtime for you too Fred and George." Molly ended the sentence bitterly. It must be because of the 'Harry' incident, Hermione presumed.

Just as the three of them turned around and greeted each other good night, Molly piped up a question which made Hermione bite her lip hard to keep herself from laughing.

"What are those pads for?" Fred and George turned slowly with a sly grin and replied fastly.

"Wandering gnomes,"

"Better be safe. You're never sure." Then they both stormed to their rooms, with Hermione following closely behind.

Molly smiled to herself after the trio left. She saw Fred look at Hermione in a different way. And since last year, they had seemed to be more- less, would be more proper, mischievous.

She went to the living room and sat at the sofa still smiling. That was how Arthur looked at her.

A/N: I hoped you all liked this chapter. :D And I know Fabian and Gideon weren't twins, but since they were portrayed by James and Ollie in the movie adaptation of OoTP, I'm going to portray them as twins for those who might ask.

Oh and Altheia Leicester, made her up. Mehehehe. But don't forget her, she might come up again, but that's all I'm telling. :-"
