Fell in Love Without You

Chapter 5: Can't place it...

So the girls and I discovered that my room is indeed big enough to have a good girls night in. Plenty of room to spread out and be comfortable.

"I have to say, this room is super amazing" Annabelle said as she bit into a chocolate frog. "You're so lucky!"

"I guess so" I smiled, flicking through a Teen Witch magazine from my spot on the bed. She was sitting next to me, brushing out her hair and eating chocolate frogs. I secretly hoped she'd get fat and get chocolate in her perfect hair, making it less perfect and sticky.

"Are you sure there's nothing between you and Fred?" She asked. I looked up and raised an eyebrow.

"Yes. Totally sure" I nodded.

"Really? What about on his side?" She asked, chewing her lip between perfect white teeth.

"We've always had a theory that Fred likes A.V a little more than he says he does" Riley spoke up, looking over from where she was on the floor, painting her nails.

"Yeah but it's not true. Fred is my best friend, that's it" I shook my head.

"Of course, we've always had a theory that A.V liked Fred a little more than she lets on as well" Roe grinned. I threw a pillow at her head and she laughed.

"Which is also not true" I added hastily. I looked at Annabelle and smiled. "Ignore them. They're my sisters, they're meant to tease" I rolled my eyes. "You know, I could put in a good word for you if you wanted" I sat forward. I guess now was as good a time as any to start being nice.

"Oh... no that would be embarrassing" She shook her head "I'll get him myself. Trust me" She winked.

"Ohh sounds like girl has game" Angelina laughed. "Go for it... Fred and George are both looking fine this year"

"Don't know how... or why... I mean they did nothing out of the ordinary over the summer" Ginny rolled her eyes.

"They invented" Riley reminded her.

"Oh yeah... those joke products" Annabelle winced. I struggled not to laugh as I remembered her fainting.

"Some of them are actually good" I laughed. "They keep talking about opening a shop"

"Where would my brothers get the money to open a shop?" Ginny laughed.

"Selling to first years?" Hermione rolled her eyes. "Seriously A.V you HAVE to do something about it"

"I will, I will" I promised. "If I don't, Umbridge will" I wrinkled my nose. That ugly toadfaced woman had totally taken over our last prefect meeting. It was like she thought I couldn't do my job properly.

"That woman is ghastly" Hermione shuddered, obviously thinking about the meeting as well.

"Agreed"

"Oh my god!" Alicia squealed, throwing her head back in laughter.

"What?" I raised an eyebrow at her and Angelina.

"There's a potion that you can buy... to make him bigger... down there" They started laughing again. I groaned.

"Allie, we don't need to hear your bedroom issues with Lee" Roe laughed, pulling the magazine closer to her.

"And you're 15 so you don't even need to hear about it full stop" I plucked the magazine from her fingers. She rolled her eyes and the others laughed.

A knock on the balcony door made us all jump, Allie even squealed a little. I frowned and made my way to the door.

"I'm 50 stories up... who the hell is on my balcony?"

I pulled the curtains aside and saw the grinning face of Fred Wesley, broom slung over his shoulder and smirk on his face.

Oh wow...

"Do you wanna let me in? Lee and George are on their way with food" He said through the glass.

"How did you figure out how to do this?" I laughed, unlocking and opening the door.

"I remembered you telling Ange that you had a balcony... It's the only balcony on the tower" he grinned, quite obviously pleased with himself.

"Not as dumb as he looks folks" I smiled. Behind him George and Lee touched down on the balcony, Lee's arms full with food.

"I don't know how the bloody hell you do that" He took a shaky step off the broom and pushed past Fred. "Baby..." He pouted and dumped the food on the bed.

Alicia laughed and wrapped her arms around her boyfriend.

Fred and I however were still staring at each other and smiling.

"Nice room" He nodded.

"Thank you... you're not even meant to be in here" I pointed out. He just shrugged.

"I'm Fred Weasley. I was born to break rules" He smirked. I couldn't help going to jelly under his gaze.

"Chocolate frog, Fred?" Annabelle interrupted us, smiling sweetly from beside us.

"Why yes, my dear Belle. I'd love one" He looked away from me and followed Annabelle over to the food.

I sighed and let George in, then I shut the door. After that I curled up on my bed and continued to flick through Teen witch. It was disgusting watching Annabelle flirt with Fred. The hair flicking and sickly sweet smiles made me nauseated and his charming smiles and winking eyes made me want to rip my own hair out.

"What's wrong with you?" Riley punched me in the arm after about an hour of this.

"Nothing" I muttered. I glanced at her and sighed. "Seriously. I'm just tired" I faked a yawn and glanced at the clock. It was closing in on 1am. She gave me a disbelieving look but shrugged.

"Yeah I was just about to say I'm heading back to my room... I think Allie and Lee should go too" She nodded to the couple dozing on the arm chair.

I nodded and stood and stretched. "I think it's time for bed" I announced.

Allie stirred slightly and nodded.

"Well, I guess I'll talk to you tomorrow" Annabelle looked down at the carpet her and Fred were sitting on. She looked back up at him from under her eyelashes. I knew that look. That was the 'kiss me now' look.

Fred was leaning closer.

I grabbed the first thing that I could place my hand on and threw it at the two of them.

"Hey Fred, heads up" I chucked a bag of Fizzing Wizzbees at him. He tore his gaze away from Annabelle as the bag hit him in the side of the head.

"Oi!" He exclaimed. "That hurt"

"Oh sorry, I thought you were watching" I shrugged airily.

Annabelle was scowling as she stood and straightened her silky (and pink) pyjama shorts. I couldn't help but feel a little self righteous as I said goodnight to her and my friends.

Soon, Fred was the only one left, sprawled out on my bed.

"Out" I pointed toward the door.

"Nope. I'm sleeping right here" He smirked and made himself more comfortable. I raised an amused eyebrow and shook my head.

"Nuh uh... go" I continued to point to the door. He sighed and got to his feet, dragging them across the floor slowly. He picked up his broom and sighed.

"It's cold outside"

"Yup" I nodded.

"You're kicking your best friend out into the cold?" He pouted.

"Sure am" I smiled.

"You're mean"

"Goodnight Fred" I shut the door behind him. There was something about that boy, something different. I'd never looked at him or felt jealous... it all changed when I came back from Romania... I just, didn't know what it was yet.

A/N: Alright guys, here's the Monday Night edition of Fell In Love Without You. I hope you like it, I had fun writing it. Ok so, yesterday my computer crashed and all of the chapters (about 10,000 words worth of this story) went missing. After almost crying, because I'd worked so hard on this for you guys, I was about ready to give up. Then I read some AMAZING reviews by Flyingcrispi, .lighter, bluebookbutterfly and gyspytraveler and decided to rewrite everything.

Thank you SO much for reviewing and the next part of this story will be dropping soon.
