Before I knew what I was doing, I was kissing him back. His lips were just as I remembered, soft and sweet.
Before I could think anymore about his lips on mine, though, I pulled away. I put my head in my hands and just stayed like that. I, then, crawled as fast I could to the exit. George was following me. I got up and walked to the stairs. I sat down.
"Rebecca?" George asked, his voice shaking.
"Huh?" I looked up.
"I'm sorry. I shouldn't of done that." he apoligised, hesitantly sitting down beside me.
"Don't apoligise Georgie." I whispered. He just nodded. The food fight, in the hall, was slowly dying down. Only the Gryffindors and Slytherins were throwing food at eachother now. I saw Fred and Angelina working together to throw various food at Malfoy and his goons. I may be friends with Malfoy but not his bodyguards.
"To think we started that." George said, shaking his head in disbelief.
"Yup." I replied, popping my lips on the 'p'.
"Can we talk?" he asked, nervously.
"I thought that was what we were in the middle of doing." I smiled a small smile.
"You know what I mean." George stated, his face turning serious. I just nodded. "Follow me." He said. I done as I was told. We were walking towards the hill, next to Hagrid's hut. He sat down at the top of it. I done the same.
"What do you wanna talk about?" I decided to play dumb.
"Us." He said simply.
"There is no 'us', Georgie." I explained.
"Yes there is. If there was no 'us', you wouldn't of kissed me back in there. You know you feel something for me. Just admit it!" His voice was rising. I knew he was right. I did feel something for him. But, instead of admitting this to him, I just stared at him.
"See, you know I'm right." he commented. I was speechless. "You know you have feelings for me."
"What difference does it make?" I croaked.
"Alot for me." he said, taking my hand. I didn't object, I didn't have the energy.
"Well not for me. I may feel something for you, but it doesn't change how I feel about Fred. I love Fred, Georgie."
"You love me too. You know you do. Don't bother lying to me because I'll know."
"Yes. I love you, Georgie." I admitted, closing my eyes. "But we can't be together."
"We can."
"No. We can't. I love Fred, I'm with him." George's eyes filled with tears.
"Ok." He croaked, a few tears falling down his cheeks.
"Georgie, don't cry. Please." I whispered, putting a hand on his cheek. "I hate myself for hurting you and Fred like this. I hate myself. I hate seeing you like this, so please don't cry." I sounded a bit hysterical because I started sobbing. George pulled me in.
"Don't cry, Becs." He said, into my hair. He, unlike me, had pulled himself together. I just clung onto his robes. It felt as though, if I let go, I would be sucked into a black hole. I eventually pulled myself together and leaned back, not letting go of his robes.
"I'm so sorry. For everything." I said, looking into his eyes.
"I love you." He mumbled. He brung his hands up to mine and just held them. We stayed like that, hands together and our eyes locked, for a while.
"You shouldn't."
"Shouldn't what?" He asked, confused.
"You shouldn't love me, either of you." I explained.
"But we do... so get used to it, princess."
"Princess? Seriously?" I chuckled.
"Seriously."
"I love you, too." I whispered.
"But not enough."
"I never said that." I said, slowly.
"What do you mean?"
"I, honestly, don't know. I do, however, know that I can't be with either of you until I've sorted my life out." I stated.
"So... you're going to break up with Fred?" He asked, hopefully.
"I am, yes. But not for you, not for him, for me. I need some time. Then, and only then, will I make my decision." I said.
"You're amazing." He smiled.
"So are you." With that, I stood up. "You coming?"
"Nah."
"'kay." I said, planting a kiss on his cheek. I ran off, towards the castle. That's where I found Fred. I was about to break his heart, to try and mend my own. I walked towards the cake-covered Fred, whose face lit up.
I wasn't looking forward to this. I was scared. Fred was the one with the bad temper. I was scared of how he was going to react. I straightened up and strode over.
"Rebecca, what's wrong?"
