FredWeasleyy: [in the library?] *stands in the doorway, watching you study some homework, before entering and walking over to you* Heya. lumosnoxhermione: ::brightens:: Hi! Does this mean you're feeling happier? FredWeasleyy: *sits down on the opposite side of the table* I... How're you doing? Had a good day? FredWeasleyy: [*is in pain* she's making it so damn difficult! :P] lumosnoxhermione: Nothing special. Everyone's just talking about Oliver and what happened. lumosnoxhermione: [that's the whole point!] FredWeasleyy: [yes..suffer, you bastard...] FredWeasleyy: *nods* Hard to avoid hearing about it. *reaches out and takes your hand* But how're you feeling? lumosnoxhermione: I'm fine. How are you? FredWeasleyy: *looks down* Less than fine. *swallows* I need to talk to you about something lumosnoxhermione: ::concerned:: What is it? If it's about yesterday it doesn't matter. I understand why you were off with me and I was probably not the most sympathetic. FredWeasleyy: *looks up again and takes your other hand as well, holding them in his* It's about yesterday... *sighs* But it's not about that. Or it might be. Oh, I don't know. lumosnoxhermione: ::baffled:: Just tell me. It can't be that bad. FredWeasleyy: You're going to be very upset with me in a minute, but...I just hope you can forgive me. Then atleast someone will, because I can't. lumosnoxhermione: ::panicky:: Fred, just come out with it! FredWeasleyy: *closes his eyes* After we..went our separate ways yesterday, I went to visit Bletchley, to try and get something out of the whole bet thing. I still needed those socks washed, for example. *reds spots appearing on his cheeks* lumosnoxhermione: So? FredWeasleyy: *swallows hard* Things sort of got out of hand and... *says this very rapidly, mumbling, bows his head* Isortofhappenedtosleepwithher. lumosnoxhermione: ::stunned. and, even though she quite clearly heard:: What? FredWeasleyy: *not looking up* I...*clears his throat* I slept with her. lumosnoxhermione: ::gets up and runs out into the corridor:: [because obviously, no shouting in the library] FredWeasleyy: *gets up and hurries after you* Wait! *catches you by the shoulders, turning you to face him* lumosnoxhermione: ::wrenching out of your grip:: Get off me! FredWeasleyy: Wait, no, you don't understand...let me finish! It was a mistake, it didn't mean anything! lumosnoxhermione: Then why did you do it?! FredWeasleyy: *flushes deep red, stuttering:* I...I don't know...it just happened, we were there and I got her to massage my shoulder that I strained during the game and then all of a sudden we...we... lumosnoxhermione: ::turning away:: I don't want to hear! FredWeasleyy: *grabs you by the arm* Please believe me, I didn't mean for it to happen, it just... I haven't been sleeping all night, because I felt so bloody bad about it! lumosnoxhermione: That makes it worse, do you know that? Someone you claimed you didn't even like, and you'd risk whatever - whatever we were to go with her! FredWeasleyy: I don't like her! I don't know why or how it happened! It's you I care about! *tries to hug you* lumosnoxhermione: ::shoves at you:: Don't touch me! FredWeasleyy: *staggers backwards* I...I...Hermione...please...forgive me? *eyes rimming with tears* lumosnoxhermione: ::stares at you like she can't believe it, and then:: ....No! FredWeasleyy: Can't we just talk about this, and try to put it behind us? [idiot] lumosnoxhermione: What if it was me? Would you want to just talk about it? I don't even want to look at you. FredWeasleyy: *lets hands fall limply by his sides as he realises she won't forgive him, like he had desperately hoped for in his head* Don't...don't say that...we just need some time... lumosnoxhermione: Some time for what? I don't trust you. I don't even like you right now! FredWeasleyy: *wipes his eyes with his shirtsleeve* I... *shakes head* I'm so, so sorry. lumosnoxhermione: It's too late! FredWeasleyy: *your words hitting him like a slap in the face* No...it can't be...we can still work this out, can't we? lumosnoxhermione: Is that what you thought? That you could just - and that I wouldn't care? "Oh, that's all right, Fred, go and sleep with whoever you want, it doesn't bother me in the slightest"? FredWeasleyy: That's not what I thought! I didn't plan this! lumosnoxhermione: I'm so pleased for you! That spontaneity should help to keep your relationship fresh! FredWeasleyy: I didn't mean to hurt you! I felt so bad afterwards, all I could think about was you, and how much I cared for you. I went over it and over it and I decided I had to tell you...instead of you hearing about it from...someone else. lumosnoxhermione: What do you want? Me to tell you how good of you it was to come and tell me? That you've done the right thing? That I forgive you, that we can try again? It's over, forget it! I don't want to see you any more! FredWeasleyy: *is silent for a while, just standing there* ...so that's it? FredWeasleyy: We're through? lumosnoxhermione: Yes. FredWeasleyy: *eyes going misty again* I didn't want for this to happen. I'm sorry. Hell, have a go at me, if you want. I won't put up a fight. Just take your best shot. *looks blank* lumosnoxhermione: I don't want to have a go at you. I just want this to be finished. FredWeasleyy: *looks away, giving up* You come and find me if you ever want to talk or hang out or...something...allright? lumosnoxhermione: ::tearing up:: Just go. Please. FredWeasleyy: *remains standing there for a moment* If that's what you want me to do, then...I will. I'd do anything for you. *turns and walks away quickly, wiping at his eyes with his shirtsleeve again* lumosnoxhermione: [awwwwwwwwwwwwwww] FredWeasleyy: [dammit...even in death it's fluffy]
