{Hermione's POV}
The end of year feast was one of solemnity. There was black everywhere and Dumbledore's speech was in tribute to Cedric. When Harry, Ron and I entered Fred had saved me a seat beside him and George. I took it and Ron sat beside me.
As Dumbledore told us the Voldemort's talent of spreading discord was the one we needed to watch Fred intertwined his fingers with mine. It was under the table as only Harry and George knew about us. I pressed my shoulder to him slightly to tell him that I appreciate to comfort.
As we boarded the carriages to go to Hogsmeade station, Viktor asked me to come with him. I saw jealous burning in Fred's eyes but it was as Viktor pulled me away. When I returned I knew that Fred had been wondering what I had been doing with Viktor
"It's nothing for you to be worried about," I sighed as I got into the carriage with Fred, Ron and Harry and kissed him on the cheek when Ron was looking away.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah alright," He said like he didn't care, even though I knew that he did.
I slapped him playfully on the chair and he pounced on me. Harry didn't seem the slightest bit interested and Ron followed his lead.
"Hey, 'Mione," Fred leaned over and whispered in my ear
"Mmm?" I replied trying to be inconspicuous
"Maybe you should spend the train trip back with my brother and Harry. I think that they've missed you." He told me
"But, I want to spend time with you." I told him in a near frantic whisper
"I know, but I'll see you later in the holidays I'm sure." He smiled at me
"Alright," I said to the boy I loved.
{Fred POV}
On the train I decided to pay a visit to my brother, or more importantly my brother's best friend- my girlfriend. Not that my brother knew that. When I got there I saw a couple of Slytherin's leering in speaking in a very menacing tone. I heard the word, that he had used before to describe my Hermione; George heard it too- so we both hexed them
"Thought we'd see what those 3 were up to," I said with a wink to Hermione
"Interesting effect," George said as he followed me into the compartment
I sat on one side of Hermione and George picked up her cat and put him in his lap. The cat had always liked George more than me.
"Who used the Furnunculus Effect?" George asked
"Me." Harry replied
"Odd," George went on about the mutant spell he and Harry had created before moving the unconscious mess into and empty compartment
"Exploding snap, anybody?" I asked, pulling out a pack
I didn't really want to play but it was an excuse to stay in here with Hermione. It was after the 5th game that Harry asked whom we were blackmailing. They wouldn't give up; I was getting a bit frustrated so I said
"Alright, alright, if you really want to know . . . it was Ludo Bagman."
Hermione feigned disbelief while Harry and Ron were shock. George told them about Lee's dad and the bet that Ludo had placed on him. Harry thought he could give us our gold now but the goblins thought differently.
The rest of the journey was nice, I got spend it with my girlfriend and we got to talk while the others were yelling out over the card game. When we got off the train, Harry called my twin and I back for a moment and did something we would never expect
"Take it." He said as he held out his winnings
We refused, downright. He told us it was for the joke shop and if we didn't take it he would throw it down the drain. I couldn't take it so George took it and said there had to be a thousand galleons in there
"Just don't tell your mum where you got it from, although she might not be so keen to let you join the Ministry anymore, come to think of it . . ." He warned us
"Harry," I tried to get him to take it back but he pulled out his wand and told me he'd hex me and to buy Ron some new dress robes
Harry jogged to say goodbye to Ron and Hermione. My heart contracted in shock when she kissed him on the cheek, but I knew they were just friends.
"Harry- thanks," my twin said as I nodded, Hermione turned and jumped into my open arms and whispered in my ear
"Owl me," and she gave me a kiss while George stood in front of us blocking us from view
"Of course, I'll miss you, and I love you- more than anything." I said as I let her down
"I love you too," she said as she turned to meet her parents.
"Godric, I love that girl." I said to George when we were heading home
"I know, Fred, I know." George replied
"Who do you think will be our DADA teacher next year?" I asked, knowing this was the second Voldemort worshipper
"Hmmm, maybe we'll actually get Voldemort?" He said with a chuckle
"You never know brother, you never know." I finished with.
