Without Fred Weasley

Chapter 4 -I Have to Go

She ran her hands through the wet green grass as if hoping the life that she was surrounded by would bring him back because of her touch. But she knew that no magic, not even love, could bring him home. Her hand found something soft in the grass and she picked it up to see her bag. This just brought her more tears. It was still enchanted, like it was the day she left

*FLASHBACK*

Hermione pushed another set of books in her bag whilst Harry and Ron talked of their plans behind her. It was hard enough doing this let alone leaving for real but she new she had to do this. The horcruxes could be their last chance, it would save the lives of so many people

"We're going to get something to eat" said Harry standing up. Hermione nodded and let them go not feeling hungry. She began to pack more into the enchanted bag

"Why didn't you tell me?" said a voice behind her. Her head snapped round to see Fred leaning against the door

"Tell you what?" she asked like it was nothing

"'Mione I think we both know. I mean my brothers not the quietist of people " he smiled "But why didn't you tell me?"

"Fred, I was going to I swear, but I just didn't have the right words..." she whispered

"And you thought that leaving without saying a word would make the pain any better?" he cried as a tear slipped down his face. They both sat in silence, watching the emotions in their lovers faces not knowing what to do

"Don't go" whispered Fred. Hermione shook her head

"I can't" she said simply

"Why not?" he asked hurt

"I just can't. Ron and Harry wouldn't last five minutes without me and I wouldn't without them. I know it hurts, you can't imagine the pain that I'm on right now but I promise I will come home, and I'll see you again soon. Then we can have the happy ending we always wanted. We can get married, have kids and see the world but I have to do this...." She said to him. Every word was true and that would be her future one day she knew it. Fred walked forwards and hugged her tightly. He took a deep breath, the sweet smell of her perfume filling his nose. He missed her already and she hadn't left his arms. What would he do without his Princess? his best friend (apart from George)?

"I love you" he whispered in her ear

"And I love you too" she said hoarsely. He knew she was crying and so he held her tighter. She looked at him with teary eyes and knew nothing would fix the hole in her heart while he was gone. She kissed him gently relishing the moment

"Hermione!" Ron called from downstairs

"I have to go" she said wiping away the tears "I'll see you later Fred" And she walked away leaving him there for six months all alone, with a hole in his heavy heart...

*END OF FLASHBACK*

Why couldn't she have just stayed with him? she thought to herself. She knew the reason why was because of the endless amount of lives she knew she would save but she couldn't help but want to go back and spend more time with her favourite freckled boy.

A/N: Sorry this is so short but I've had work today and I'm soooo tires because of Halloween and I just want to curl in a ball and die but don't worry about me! Hope you like it
