I did say I wouldn't be uploading anything until exams were over, buuuuuuuuuuuuuuut, I couldn't resist, I love these two, and I got totally inpired by them the other day, and I had to write something! Why am I making excuses for uploading, that's what you want anyway, right?

Anyway, it's when they're dating again :) I introduced all their friends in this (and you have no idea how long that took me) So I hope you like it!

When she's quiet, ask her what's wrong

25th April, 1967

There was something odd about the common room. Arthur noticed it as soon as he walked in, but he couldn't quite put his finger on what it might be.

He frowned as he spotted Molly and went to sit beside her. She smiled at him, and returned to staring out the window. As he sank into the seat she cuddled closer, biting her lip. Around them all their friends continued to chatter.

He scanned to room again, trying to see what it was that was so different.

The first years were huddled in a corner talking, and looking nervously at some raucous fifth years who seemed in danger of crashing into them- nothing different there.

The fourth year girls were giggling together and casting glances at the objects of their affection, just like always. There was the sulky sixth year in his private corner, and the "twins" (who were really just close friends who looked similar) were laughing at the back of the room.

Arthur looked back at his own group and counted them, just to be sure.

Molly, of course, her friends Donna and Dede on the window seat, and Octavia was in her own little world in Matt's arms. Then the other Gryffindor boys; curly haired Crispin was rolling his eyes as Dede started to plait his hair, Paul, Brogan and Lance were laughing at him, though Lance still had his nose buried in a book. So it was the same as always, nothing had changed.

Then it hit him, and he looked back down at Molly. She was completely silent, twirling a lock of her hair around her finger and keeping her gaze down.

Molly was never silent... ever.

"Molly," Arthur whispered "What's wrong?"

She looked up at him and bit her lip again. He reached out a hand and brushed her hair back so he could see her better.

They stared at each other for a long moment; he could see the hurt in her eyes.

"We'd better head out if we want tea at all." Brogan said, thinking about his stomach as always. No one had seen the exchange between Molly and Arthur.

The rest began to stand and Molly moved stiffly as if she would too.

"Molly, what's wrong?" Arthur said again, stopping her. The others didn't seem to notice, too wrapped up in their own worlds.

Molly worried at her lip a little longer, not meeting his eyes, and suddenly, without warning, she burst into tears.


Hope you liked it... and I would be sooooooo happy if you'd all review, please!
