A week later Harry had arrived and gave everyone a shock. He had been attacked by dementors, and the ministry was blaming him for using magic against them. 'Idiots.' Fred thought to himself. Why would they make Harry Potter of all people go to a trial for using magic.

"Idiots." George said speaking the same thoughts going through his twin brother's head. The two boys were sitting in their room working on a new potion. It was a potion that would when consumed the said person would start rambling over who they fancied.

They had been experimenting with different ingredients and they were running out. George said "Do you think that we need to get more newts tail and Rats elixir?" Fred grinned and nodded and the two boys stood up and walked to the door.

A couple weeks ago, when they realized they were going to need to restock their ingredients, the y went to their father. "Dad!" They said said together.

Mr. Weasley turned around with a sigh and said "what do you need boys?"

"Well….dad, we were asking for permission to take some occasional trips to diagon alley." Mr. Weasley's eyes widened and George said "We need to get some things for our business. We know that mum doesn't approve, but this is really what we want to do in life."

Mr. Weasley's eyes softened at he looked at the young men standing before him. He remembered when they were little, and how he knew they would do something in life that entertained people, despite his wife's wishes of them becoming healers or bankers. He took a deep breath and said "Ok. But you must tell me when you are going, so that I can cover for you. And only Diagon Alley."

Freda and George grinned at their father and went on their way. Mr. Weasley smiled, knowing that he was helping his sons with what they wanted to do with their lives.

Back in the present, Fred and George sought out their father to tell him where they were going. After that was done they went away to where no one should be and closed their eyes, preparing to apparate. George cleared his mind first and disappeared with a pop. Right as Fred was about to apparate himself the door to the room they were in swung open.

"Where do you think you're going?" said a shrill voice. A voice that belonged to a certain someone that had been taking over Fred's head.

Fred looked up in surprise and said "Ummmm, Hey Hermione."

Hermione sent him a look and said "I heard George apparate! I'll go tell your mother right now!"

Fred rolled his eyes and walked over to Hermione. "Oh, Im so scared." He grabbed onto her arm and she looked up at him suspiciously.

"What are you doing?" she demanded.

Fred put on a lopsided grin. He loved it was Hermione got all bossy with him. "I'm going to have to kidnap you now. I can't have you telling my dear mum where we are going." And with that Fred apparated with Hermione by his side.

When they landed Hermione looked outrage and said "Fred!"

Fred laughed and said "Something bothering you darling?" She stepped out of his reach and stared at him, nostrils flaring and all. Fred thought she looked beautiful .

"How dare you?" she yelled. Then she totally surprised Fred by coming up to him and kicking him in the shins. It didn't hurt and Fred had to fight the urge to laugh. At this point George walked over and said "There you are! What took so long? I think that we should stop at the Potions sto-" then he noticed Hermione seething with anger.

He raised an eyebrow and said "Why is book worm here?"

Fred smirked and said "She was going to turn us in."

"So you kidnapped her?"

"Obviously."

Hermione stomped over to them and said "Well…" When Fred and George didn't respond she said "Why in the name of Merlin are we here in Diagon Alley? Do you know how much trouble you'll be in when you go home?"

"None." Fred said. "Our father knows where we are, and he'll figure out your with us." Hermione stared open mouthed at them and stormed away. George looked at Fred as if asking 'did you have to bring her?' Fred shrugged and walked off to find Hermione.

He caught up to her easily and said "If you act like a normal human being that we did not kidnap, we promise we'll make the day worthwhile." She crossed her arms defiantly but didn't say anything."That's a good girl." He said and he pet her head.

"First we need to get some ingredients for some experimenting were doing." George said. Hermione was about to ask 'what kind of experimenting?' when she thought better of it and just decided to walk quietly.

They stopped at the potions store and bought everything they needed. "Where did you get all that money?" Hermione asked. She didn't ask it in a mean way, just a cautious worried way. The twins looked at each other and George shook his head no at Fred.

Fred was going to tell her the truth, but George didn't want him to so he just said "From a good friend." Hermione suspected they were talking about Lee so she stayed quiet once again. After Fred and George got everything they needed Fred said "So Hermione, are you ready for the day of your life?"

Hermione rolled her eyes, but a slight smile could be seen on her face. During the last week, Fred and George have been especially Fred. She thought maybe they had a big prank in store for her, but the more she thought about it she actually felt like they were becoming friends.

Hermione had never really given much thought to the night of the Yule ball because she had Ron, but now being so close with Fred, she thought about it more and more. They had almost kissed that night, that she was sure of.

She wasn't really sure whether she wished it to happen or not. Her thoughts were just too confusing. Fred's mind was thinking along the same track, except he was knew he is thoughts. He knew he wanted to kiss her. It would have made things so much easier.

"So George, I think we should take our dear friend out to a lovely lunch." Fred said.

George nodded and said "Hmmm….How about to…" and then he stared thinking of restaurant ideas. They decided on a place down the street from Ollivander's that sold Ice cream. Sure, it wasn't lunch, but it was delicious.

As they ate their sundae's they even got Hermione to laugh a bit. "So how is our ickle-ronnikens?" Hermione blushed causing Fred to scowl.

After Lunch they walked around Diagon alley and Fred and George noticed how Hermione's eyes kept flashing towards Flourish and Blotts book store. "'Mione would you like to go in there?" Fred asked smirking.

Hermione said "No." in a way that obviously said she really did. Fred and George grabbed her arms and dragged her to the book store. Her eyes lit up and she started looking at all the books. George rolled his eyes and Fred stared dreaminly after her. "why do you like her of all people." Fred elbowed him but continued. Love worked that way, you just fell for someone despite what anyone else thinks.

The twins bought Hermione a book she had been staring at and they went home. As they apparated Fred grabbed Hermione's hand and couldn't help but think of how good it felt. Her hand was so small and delicate, and his was big and strong, it worked somehow. All too soon they were back at Grimmauld place and Hermione let go of Fred's hand.

The first thing they heard was Ron's voice going "There you are Hermione!"
