"Y/N, snap out of it. I'm trying to talk to you!" Ron says as he's waving his hand in front of my face, trying to get my attention.

"Sorry, dozed off. Just have some things on my mind.." you replied. You didn't mean to doze off, but after what happened during holiday break, you couldn't get your mind off it.

<<Flashback>>
Molly, along with all the Weasley children were all sitting at the table. You come downstairs after just hopping out of the shower. Your hair still slightly damp, but styled nicely. You wore a cute holiday jumper and some white skinny jeans. George and Fred had eyes on you first, glancing at each other with a smirk on their face after noticing you. They bowed their heads down and away from you.
Ron smiled and got up from his seat. He came towards the steps and held out his hand for you to take. You politely grabbed it and made your way down the rest of the steps. He put his arm around you once you were in the dining room with everyone else.

"Took you long enough, Y/N. We we're about to eat without you at this point. You know I'm starving!" Ron said. Molly gave him a stern look and shook her head.

"Oh, ignore him and his bloody remarks. We would never do such thing!" She got up and walked over to hug you. Molly was like your mother. You've grown up with the Weasleys since you were little. Your mother and her were best friends. However, your mother recently passed due to illness.

You and Molly let go, and sat down at the table among everyone else. Fred looked at you and gave you a cheeky wink.

"Lookin' good, Y/N. You clean up way better than Ginny ever does when Harry's around." He chuckled and nudged Ginny, who was right next to him.

"Shut it, Fred! Pick on someone else now." Ginny rolled her eyes and picked up her glass of water, taking a sip and sitting it back down.

"Y/N, go ahead and dig in with everyone else. I made your favorite dessert, pudding!" Molly smiled and started plating food on her own plate. The rest of the Weasleys started grabbing immediately after she spoke. They all had quite the appetite. You started plating food on your own plate once the madness started to calm down a bit. The boys all took big meaty bites out of everything, and gobbled their food down almost instantly. Laughter, and conversation were shared around the table during the meal. It ended up being a great dinner.

Later on, after dinner and dessert, Fred and you were alone in the kitchen. Molly left Fred to do the dishes, but you couldn't help but help out since you dirtied some of the plates yourself.

"Hey now, don't worry about helping. Mum's taught me everything I need to know when it comes to dish washing." He said with a grin on his face, his hands scrubbing away on the dishes to clean them.

"Oh, please. As if you could do this all yourself without using magic. I know what kind of tricks you and George play." You nudged him playfully and snickered. He couldn't help but smirk back at you.

Fred took some bubble from the foamy soap water and lathered them on your cheek. He snickered and did it once again, now having soapy bubbles on both sides of your cheek. You scoffed, and the smile on your face widened. You reached into the soapy liquid in the sink and smothered bubbles right onto his face next. Next thing you know, a bubble war broke out between you and Fred. Bubbles were everywhere, water was on the floor and the counters. You went to rub more bubbles onto Fred's face, but slipped on the slippery floor and slammed right into him.

Your eyes were closed, and you braced yourself for impact, but... you never hit the floor? Instead, you felt a pair of warm arms wrapped around you. And a body standing right in front of you, with your face buried into their chest. You look up to find Fred has caught you before you fell. His eyes gleaming down at yours. Your heart fluttering slightly, and your cheeks feeling warm. The touch of pink in your cheeks, and the bite of your lip had him blushing back at you. You two stood like this for a few seconds without saying a word. Your eye contact said it all.

"Are you alright, Y/N?" Fred asked, breaking the silence between you two.

"Just fine. Thanks for catching me, Fred.." You responded back. Suddenly Ron came down the steps and looked at the both of you giving a weird look. Fred let go of you and cleared his throat before returning to the dishes. You didn't know what to say. All you could do was stand there. Eventually you mustered up the courage to move, and you walked over to Ron.

"Come on, let's go open gifts. Shall we?" The two of you walked into the living room. You gave Fred a quick glance before leaving the kitchen with Ron.

<<Flashback Over>>

Hermione, and Harry both looked at you and smiled.
Ron was stuffing his mouth with potatoes and ham.

"So, I assume Holidays were good for you all this year?" Asked Hermione. Everyone nodded in agreement.

You tried engaging in the conversation, but the pair of eyes on you made it quite hard to focus. You glared over, and saw Fred smirking at you. He then looked away and carried on talking with George and the rest of Gryffindor.

This was going to be a hell of a ride...
