Forever Isn't Real // Fred Weasley x Reader

Chapter Sixty Five - Catching The DA

Katie knowing made everything a bit easier for me. I got to confess my thought process and share why everything was weighing so hard on me.

"You think Fred's gonna break up with you if you tell him?" Katie asks me. She and I were sitting across my bed. The others were in the library, Katie told them she was taking me to the hospital wing and that she'd met up with them later. I nod.

"It's just that- he was raised with a bunch of siblings he's seen the bad side of kids he knows the commitment and he has dreams that he wants to accomplish," I explain, "I just think that when it comes to it his future is really important to him."

"You are more important to him," She says at once, "he loves you so much. So much it's actually disgusting. And I'm sure he'll be surprised but I don't think he'll break up with you." I sigh grabbing a handful of crisps. "He's worried about you..."

"I know," I say softly, "I feel terrible. I know I'm putting him through hell right now."

"Then talk to him," She tells me, "seriously you should just sit down and explain what is going on to him." I sigh. "I know I know you're scared... But honestly, Fred's not even the hardest part... Molly is."

"Ugh don't get me started," I groan, "I'm afraid that she'll kill me... And you know I don't know if that's the part the scares me or just the lecture I'm going to get before she kills me." Katie chuckles. "I'm glad you can find the humor in this."

"Just relax," She says, "you and Fred are adults at this point. She can't really do anything. And honestly, this might just make Fred realize he has to grow up." I chuckle knowing that's not the case. "It's nice to see you smiling again."

"I've smiled-"

"Not the way you used to," She says, "you've been so worried about the ba- pregnancy that you've been all stone faced all the time... It's not like you at all."

"Yeah it's a weird thing," I tell her, "Seriously it's a lot..."

"Don't worry about it," Katie says, "We love you no matter what." She smiles. "Let's go head down for dinner."

When we get to the great hall Fred looks over me carefully. Not knowing what to say. I give him a soft smile and that seems to calm him down at least a bit.

"Hey Fred," I say softly, "you doing okay?" He nods.

"What about you?" He asks me, "you alright?"

"I'm fine- still a little nauseous but I'll survive," I say as I move taking my seat. He moves draping his arm over me carefully. I peck his cheek. He grateful. Excited even.

"You guys missed the study group," Angie says, "I hope you are studying on your own Bellerum. Seems like a risk to just ignore it."

"I'm studying on my own time," I tell her. It's a lie. I've been way too preoccupied with everything else that school was pushed to the back of my mind. I didn't mind it too much. I mean I already got knocked up not much of a chance for a career now. "Don't worry about me." She nods.

"What about the next match? Are you ready?" She asks.

"I'm ready I'm working on the strategy- you worry too much," I tell her as the food appears over the table. We dig in excitedly. Not much conversation going on.

On our way back from the hall all we could hear was shouting. We were some of the last to leave and sometimes kids get rowdy but this isn't that.

"Come on," I say to the others. I drag them over to the entrance hall were a crowd had gathered. Professor Trelawney was standing in the middle with her wand in one hand and an empty sherry bottle in the other, looking utterly mad. Her hair was sticking up on end, her glasses were lopsided so that one eye was magnified more than the other; her innumerable shawls and scarves were trailing haphazardly from her shoulders, giving the impression that she was falling apart at the seams. Two large trunks lay on the floor beside her, one of them upside-down; it looked very much as though it had been thrown down the stairs after her. Professor Trelawney was staring, apparently terrified at Umbridge standing at the foot of the stairs.
