Not your girl ( Fred Weasley x Reader )

Y/n's POV:

Since I take more NEWTS than Fred he walks me to my next lesson as I clutch my school books against my chest, hugging them with my arms.

" have you heard from Pucey?" He asks.

" yeah he apologised to me this morning, he slept outside my dorm though" I say feeling uneasy and Fred's face scrunches up.

" freak, you're welcome to stay in my dorm any time you like" he says and I look at him, it still feels weird and comes as a shock whenever he says nice things.

" what?" He says shrugging, " wouldn't want him to bust down your door and attack you" he says a little too insensitively.

" that won't happen... but thanks for the offer" i tell him.

" Mum's worried about you" he tells.

" do let her know I'm okay" I say pleading since Molly is lovely and has been welcoming to me.

" why can't you tell her yourself?" He asks and I'm unsure how to respond.

" well I wouldn't want to keep talking to her happily if we're breaking up" I say and he looks at the floor.

" yeah..." is all he says.

" you're much less grouchy with him around" he says and I frown.

" what do you mean?"

" without Adrian, you seem happier"

I roll my eyes at him, he keeps bringing it up, in fact ever since the start of 6th year all he's done is bring up Adrian.

" maybe it's just because you're being nicer to me" I tell him, I don't want to defend Adrian but it's true, there are so many nasty things Fred has said to me over the past years.

Fred scoffs, " that's not true, you make it sound like the times you weren't happy are my fault"

" you realise you haven't always been the nicest? You know we've only argued with each other since first year" I remind him.

" well yeah but that's normal for us" he says like he's unsure.

" besides you've been no sweetheart either" he tells me.

" you're always the instigator whenever we argue" I tell him and he laughs.

" that's not true, most of our arguments are from when we were kids!"

" oh be quiet, you know what you're saying at 11!"

" I don't get what this has got to do with Adrian" he tells me and I get angry.

" this isn't about him! It's about you! Why must you still continue to bring him up?! Also I think you've forgotten half the things you've said to me!"

" never mind, still just as grouchy" he says with a bored raise of the eyebrows.

" you don't get it Fred, I've insulted you many times but I've only called you names, you insult my appearance and my personality!" I tell him.

" I do not!" He says in a ridiculous tone.

" you're the reason I stopped wearing my glasses, you made fun of me all the time whenever I was sad, doing impressions of me to your friends when you thought I wasn't around! You called me boring every single day and annoying! You knew I liked Adrian and sent me flowers pretending to be him! Why do you think I hated you? It wasn't just for fun" I outburst.

" okay I get it-" he says but I stop him as I'm not done.

" Sometimes you forget that I'm just a girl, and some of the things you've said have... have hurt my feelings a few times" I say shrugging.
