Fred ignored my comment and looked off towards the distance.

I followed his gaze into the crowd and hadn't seen anyone he would've particularly be looking for.

"I suppose your here because you've lost Angelina?" I sighed, tonight I felt a bit sentimental with the ball and everything. I'm not going to lie to my best friend about feeling down.

He snapped his gaze back at me, eyebrows furrowed "What? Oh no. She went off with her date."

I looked at him confused "She had another date and never told you? Oh I'm sorry, that must be awful..I, uh, hope you're okay."

Fred then looked at me and laughed "It doesn't bother me, I was never her date, love. I came alone, everyone wanted this Weasley but too many girls to choose from!" He winked at me then returned his focus to whoever he kept making eye contact with and nodded to them.

I looked at him shocked.

"You, you came alone? I thought you asked Angelina?" I asked, my chest tightened a bit.

"Yeah, someone already had asked her. Plus, I only asked her as friends, since I assumed the person I wanted to come with already had a date." His eyes fluttered back to mine, he studied my face a bit and then smirked.

"..what?" I asked him about his strange behavior.

"Sorry, you have something on your face." He said

"What?!" I asked, horrified.

"Your nose" He smirked cheekily.

Suddenly I heard my favorite slow song play.
I grinned and waited to start singing along,
But then a hand extended out to mine.

I looked up to Fred grinning "Fancy a dance?" He asked and I took his hand, attempting to contain a squeal of delight.

My heart's starting to beat faster with every step I take.

Once we reached the middle of the floor, he turned around and placed a hand on my lower back, his other took mine. We danced the way professor McGonagall had taught us.

I looked into his eyes and he looked into mine, smirking.

"I see you share the same feelings, you can't resist my charm. You're adorable when you're embarrassed, (y/n). An adorable tomato of embarrassment." He grinned, looking for a reaction.

I blushed and bit my lip in attempt to stop.

"W-what? Uh, what's going on Fred?" I asked a bit flustered.

"Well, I found a girl, beautiful and sweet." He grinned

My heart dropped a bit.
I hope he's talking about me, but if not, what's really going on?

"I never knew you were the someone waiting for me." He continued and my eyes widened as I was careful not to step on his foot.

"M-me? Why me? I'm just your friend, Angelina's prettier." I whispered and I saw his grin fade a bit,

"'Cause we were just kids when we fell in love. Not knowing what it was, I will not give you up this time. The only thing is that I was too blind to see it, but hopefully it's not too late." He whispered back, a bit louder than a whisper.

"No not too late, but I still can't believe you like me back. I'm mean I'm not as pretty, I'm not smart, or witty. I-" but I was cut off.

"You're right. You're gorgeous, a genius and brilliant. But I have to clear it up that I liked you first and it was totally you that was blind afterwards, not me." He grinned, twirling me around
"Darling, just kiss me slow, your heart is all I own.
And in your eyes you're holding mine." He pulled me closer, leaning in a bit more as we danced.

"So, you don't want to be with anyone else right now?" I asked, self-conscious of how insecure I seemed.

"Who else? All I see right now is you. It's hard not to with you glowing like that, and I'm not talking about your face this time. Baby, I'm dancing in the dark, with you between my arms. Listening to our favourite song." I opened my mouth to say something but was interrupted by Fred kissing me.

I was surprised, but then my eyes fluttered close and I wrapped my arms around his neck and finally kissed him back.
We pulled apart, he hugged me tight and brushed his lips against my ear.

"Darling, you look perfect tonight."
