Hermione woke up and sighed. Last night truely was amazing. SHe was able to spend an entire day with Fred. She was able to forget for a while and be happy, maybe he was onto something with the 'friends' thing... maybe she did need her friends, she needed to be happy.

It was hard though, for such a long time her only source of happiness was Fred. He was the reason she woke up smiling. The thought of him made her ecstaatic, but now the thought of him makes her cry. It's funny how the things we care about most often are the only things that can hurt us the most... she suspected an end would come, just not like this...

Ginny was still going on about him falling back in love with her, but she doubted that could ever happen... She didn't have the heart to ruin Ginny's fantasy so she let her plan on 4 more days until the ball. Where Ginny says will initiate the feelings.

Hermione sighed. SHe twisted her ring on her finger. She smiled a little and a single tear slid down her cheek. Still, it was still so hard. She was begining to worry if she could ever get over him...

Hermione got out of bed and started her routine for the day. Little did she know as she was begining to forget Fred was begining to remember more.


Fred felt himself begining to wake up but he kept his eyes closed longing to stay asleep as much as possible he never wanted to leave. In his dreams he could kiss her every seccond. Make her smile, make her laugh... It was a paradise just the two of them... Perfection.

He realized he had to start the day and slowly opened his eyes. He looked across the room and notice George asleep. He felt a stinging sensation of guilt overflow him.

He through a pillow at his twin who sat up with a grunt.

"Georgie, I didnt mean anythign yesterday. I was mad and confused... I just wanted answers and it seemed the more i figured it out the more confused I got..."

"Well you could always make it up to me by letting me get my beauty sleep. I know you dont think I need it since I am the better looking twin, but we all need sleep." George said groggily. Fred chuckled and got out of bed.

He grabbed a change of clothes and a towel. He thought it best to head to the showers early no one else could possibally be up this early so it was the perfect oppertunity. The shower was always where he did his most genius thinking.

Engaged... Hermione? Engaged who? He had to know him... A series of her past relationships flashed through his mind 'Krum Cormac ...Ron...Please not Ron... anyone but him' His stomache churned with each passing name. He couldn't see anyone getting Hermione a ring like that those past boyfriends of hers never took in the little things they would have just gotten her the biggest diamond ring they wouldn't even think to get her birthstone incorperated in. She had to be with the boy for a long time to agree on marrying him. She has to really love them

'Put the pieces together yet freddie?' A voice asked him.

"Does it look like I have?"

'Let me ask you this how did YOU know that one of the gems was HER birthstone.'

"Thats... that's actually a good point.." How did he know? She never told him it... So how...

"Fred? Fred who're you talking to?" Asked a feminine voice from the girls staircase.

He stood frozen in spot realizing he was in the middle of the common room and that no one else would be able to here the voice in his head. He waited as the soft footsteps grew closer. Then just as he suspected none other then the redheaded little sister of his stood before him.

"Well?"She asked demanding an explanation.

"Myself?" Fred answered unncertainly.

"Really now?" She asked narrowing her eyes accusingly.

"Yes."Fred didnt want his sister to think he was crazy and even though talking to yourself might be a little odd, saying you were talking to a voice that comes out at the most unpleasant times and usually talks about Hermione and that this voice liked to argue the soft girl voice was sweet and good and no matter what he always obeyed it... That would get him a V.I.P. trip to St mungos.

She narrowed her eyes and stood in front of him with her arms folded across her chest. Never before had his sweet baby sister looked more like his mum. In reality it was quite frightening seeing as, if she acted as much as she looked like his mum he was not getting out of this room without telling Ginny everything which is something he did not disire doing.

"Gin-Gin... Not that I dont love this little chat, but I must get to my shower before the rest of the..."

She interupted him with another piercing gaze and said,"Save it Fred. Now sit."

"I don't have to listen to you Gin..."

She took out her wand and hissed out the words,"Don't make me Fred. I can stun you and grab your verita serum from your experiment kit. yes I know where you both hide it. Don't test me. So let's get this done the easy way."

"What do you wanna know?" Fred asked as he let out a loud defeating groan.

Normally he would retaliate, but this was Ginny. Other than George she was his closest sibling. He couldn't lie to her. Tricking teasing and pranking, without a doubt, but Not lying. She worried about him he knew it. They all did. He cant let his problems effect his baby sister.

"Whats wrong with you Fred? You've been acting really strange since the war. Yes you seem better, but we both know your acting for George, For us all... I know somethings wrong."

"Haven't we all been strange since the war. We all lost people. Saw death."

"Yes, but we all coped. Got on with our lives, Fred you're not better... Somethings holding you back." Her hazel eyes locking his crystal blue gaze. He saw how much he already hurt her by keeping to himself. He saw himself breaking his babysisters heart. He felt so sick he wanted to throw-up.

"I'm sorry Gin-Gin... I'm so sorry." He said putting a hand on her shoulder. She broke his gaze and looked at the floor.

"I just want my brother back. The fun, happy, carefree Fred. The Gred and Forge... Not whoever this is." She choked out a single tear fell from her eyes.

He gave her a great bear hug and he tried as hard as he could to keep his composure calm. "Gin-Gin... I'm trying I don't know what happened. Something... I just... I can't remember. I am trying really hard Gin-Gin. I really am. I want to be back to, but something happened during the war and it's like I just woke up and lost my happiness. I lost my soul. It was like whatever my cause of happiness died and so did my spirit. I'm trying but I dont know how to get it back."

She let herself start to sob and said,"Why can't you remember what happened that night Fred? What happened?"

"I don't know, Gin-Gin. I'm trying."

She started bubling with anger and she said slowly then speeding up as she finnished,"Maybe you just don't wanna know. I think you could know, but your scared. You're scared of what happened. You know it has something to do with her. We all know. Do you think we are dumb? I know my brother and lately he's only around when she is. It's her. If you didn't figure that out yet, then maybe you never really loved her. Maybe she's better off thinking you did. But do you know what's worse then not remembering Fred? Do you?"

"No." He said simply in shock at his sisters rage.

"Remembering. That's so much worse. Remembering the good times. Everything that was. and still wanting it, but knowing no matter what you do. How hard you try. It will never happen again. Knowing you had it all and never being able to get it back. Having to dream about it every night and waking up to the reality that he doesn't even know your middle name anymore." Ginny said to him.

"Who? Gin-Gin. Who?" He asked as she stood up and started walking to the staircase.

"Who do you think? You know what? Wait here. I have something for you." She bolted up the stairs and grabbed a men's locket from the box of fred things she hid under the bed that Ginny knew she wasn't supposed to know about.

She ran down the stairs and gave him the locket," Fred this was given to you years ago on christmas. It will only open when you fall in love with her completely again. It will glow red every time you start falling for her again. It will glow blue when there are no feelings for her at all." fred took it and placed it around his neck it glowed red for a while then stopped.

"There's still hope."Ginny said astounded.

"Ginny you want to tell me what this is all about?" fred asked confused.

"When it opens you'll know." Ginny said simply now beaming and ran up the stairs.

Fred sat on the couch and sighed. He didn't get that girl sometimes, but he knew one thing. She knew too. Whatever his twin was hiding with hermione she knew about it. This Locket was part of how to figure out just what happened. He also knew it involved a "her" whoever the her was he didn't know...

But you do know stupid.

Not you again.

Yeah you're not learning anything from your girl that much is clear. I'm tired of being shut away in your head. I thought Ron was the daft one.

Then just leave.

If it were only that simple... You see dunderhead I am you. I can't just get out. Just because the spell made you forget me doesn't mean I left.

What?

You really aren't as smart as I though you were. Maybe it made you forget your brains as well.

Well what part of me are you?

I'm the ol' sappy bloke that did anything to make her happy. The one you are in your dreams. Im who you used to be when you were happy. I know why you cant pull pranks like you used to why you can't laugh like you did.

Why?

Her. It's Her fault. She gave you what perfection was like now you can't imagine being happy without her cant remember how to be happy without her.

Who?

The voice just laughed and said Bye Freddie.

Damn you. He stood up and walked out the common room he wasn't paying attention when he collided right into the bushyhaired gryffindor who seemed to be coming back from the showers herself.

She fell to the ground with an 'oof' Her towels and soaps all falling to the ground with her.

"Sorry..." fred said and held out his hand to help her up.

"No problem really. It was my fault." She took his hand letting him help her and then bent down to pick up her things

He looked at her and noticed she was wearing his jacket.

"Nice Jacket." He said with a smug smirk.

Her cheeks turned red and she nervously chewed on her lip. Looking for a reason to explain why exactly she was wearing it still.

He internally chuckled she never looked more beautiful then when she was nervously blushing and she looked so perfect in his overly large jacket. His gazed slowly moved to her face. Her hair was still wet and not yet unruly curly but held gentle waves. He couldn't help the huge grin that creeped onto his features as he watched the girl.

The voice rang inside his mind,'Her.'

His face changed suddenly from his Smiling carefree attitude to a serious face of contemplation, "Its you." He whispered.

Her brow furrowed and eyes searched over him quickley making sure he was alright they stobbed when they reached his eyes. They stood there for a moment locking their gaze when he noticed the sparkle in her eyes once more.

That sparkle triggered it. He remembered. Not the memories themselves but he knew he was undoubtfully. Unconrtollabley in love with Hermione Granger. He also knew that the ring she wore was his. He just couldn't remember why or how it all happened. But she was his spark as well.

He could laugh around her. With her. She was part of him. Thats why the one feminine voice was her. She was a part of him that cannot die. He cant lose it. They made him forget but it cant be silenced. She will always be in him. Why didn't he remember thought? Why has none of his family or friends or even HER told him.

No wonder she ran away from him crying for the first few months. How could this have happened what did he do? Again the answer only led him to even more questions that couldn't be answered just yet.

"Fred? You're scaring me a bit is there something wrong?" She asked uneasy.

"No! No, nothing's wrong at all My Own... I mean sorry. Hermione... Nothing I promise you..." He said unsteadily. He took a deep breath and smiled at her once more.

"Fred are you suree..?" She asked not buying his sudden change in mood.

He smiled wider and winked, "Just Perfect." He said before placing a quick short kiss to her cheek and racing off to the showers. He didn't know why ,but he couldn''t let anyone else in on his new found epiphany. They were hiding it from him he couldnt let them know until he found out why.

Hermione stayed frozen in her spot staring out to where he ran off too. She was parallyzed by the soft chaste kiss that braced her cheek. It was just a peck on the cheek a friendly gesture. nothing more. Still she couldnt help the bubbling feeling within the pit of her stomache. the butteflies that couldn't be tamed. It was as if she felt this electic shock travel from him to her within that short half a seccond. It was a split milliseccond of perfection again. She didn't know what to do now. he was already gone but the aftermath of the incident still present in her.

A/N: Heyy everybody and everyone heres the next chappy sorry it took me awhile but here itis enjoyyy :))))))
