my yellow - fred weasley

19. Date Idea ~

"Y/n!" Katie appears in front of me, shaking my
shoulders

"Huh?" I say coming back to reality

"I was calling your name for the past 5 minutes, are you okay?" she asks looking at me concerned

I don't reply and just nod

Katie shoves herself onto my bed and speaks up "Okay what's wrong and I'm not going to accept 'nothing i'm fine' because we all know when someone says that, they're not fine" she says somehow reading my mind

"It's just...you know how George and Fred are leaving to open their shop, well what if Fred forgets about me, or what if he realises I'm not good enough, or what if he realises he doesn't love me any more, or what if he-" I get cut off by Katie throwing a pillow at me

"Y/n are you hearing yourself? Fred will never do any of those things you just mentioned, he loves you too much to do that" she says making me pause

"He loves me?" I ask shocked

"Y/n you may not notice it but that boy is head over heels for you" She says slightly making me feel better

"How do you know?" I question

"Y/n he looks at you like you're a prized treasure, you're the only person he's ever had a true crush on, before you came here he never did the things he did before you came, he never asked a girl out, he never put so much effort in asking a girl out, he loves you and it's only a matter of time before he tells you" she says making me realise everything

"You think so?" I ask her

"I know so" she says giving me a hug

"Thanks Katie" I say genuinely

"No problem y/n, don't ever doubt your relationship" she says before getting up and telling me she's gonna head down to the common room

A few years drop out as I think of the idea of Fred leaving me and finding someone else

I'm too drowned into my thoughts to hear the door open

Two shoes appear in my vision and a hand lifts up my head

I look up to see Fred standing in front of me with a frown

"Hey bub what's wrong?" he asks pulling me up into a hug

"It's nothing really" I say sniffing and wiping the tears away with my sleeve

"Nope I'm not taking that answer" he says as he looks down on me

"Fred I'm being honest, it's fine, I just..miss home and dad, that's all" I say looking up into his eyes

"Are you sure? I don't want my girlfriend falling asleep with sad thoughts" he says as he brushes a few stray hairs out of my face

"I promise Fred" I say as I give him a kiss and pull out of the hug

He lets me know he'll be down stairs and if I need anything, to call him up

I lay on my bed and fall asleep, my head getting a bit dizzy

---------------------------

Fred's pov:
When y/n told me that she just missed her dad, I didn't fully believe it but I didn't prey on it as she was upset

I make it down to the common room and see Katie, pulling her aside

"Hey Katie, what's wrong with y/n? she had a few tears in her face when I went up but all she told me was that she misses her dad which I had a feeling wasnt true" I say hoping Katie would give me some light on this situation

She sighs before quietly saying "Y/n probably wouldn't want me telling you this but I'm 99% sure that wasn't the true reason, before you came in she splurged to me about all these 'what ifs' on how you might forget about her when you leave or how you will find another girl or you'll realise she's a burden and leave her, all this nonsense but I comforted her, telling her that there's no way you'd do that to her" she finishes making me a little sad

"She really feels that way?" I say and in which she slowly nods

"I've got to go talk to her" I say as I'm about to rush up to her dorm but Katie's hand on my arm stops me

"Fred I think what you need to do is tell her you love her, but like don't do it out of nowhere. Maybe ask her out on a date, and after the date, go to the black lake and confess" she says making me question how she's so good at relationship advice even though she's never been in a relationship

"Merlin Katie you're marvellous, I would hug you but Lee wouldn't like that" I say which makes her eyebrow go up

"What?" she says confused

"Hm?" I say jokingly as I leave

Katie and I always had a good friendship but we both knew we wouldn't ever get together because it just wouldn't work out, besides we prefer our friendship instead
