Who: Fred and Verity
What: Fred's had enough
Where: WWW: Hogsmeade
When: Today
Rating/Warning: TBA


Fred had had enough. George wasn't talking to him like normal except when they forgot and were working, his dad was brassed about not knowing Verity well enough or something that he hadn't really paid attention to, and his mum... well, he was scared to talk to his mum at all. To top it off, Death Eaters and sodding fucking Snape were in control of Hogwarts, and they had a Potterwatch to do, and when you got a girl knocked up Fred had a sinking suspicion that the girl was supposed to be happy about it, damn it!

And not ignoring you, and avoiding you, and leaving one word answers in your sodding journal that you were then too much of a poncy git to write back to because something blew up and left green goo on the ceiling fan.

Enough was just enough, damn it.

So, he found himself leaving the shop to George yet again, and apparating to Hogsmeade - he stopped at the door to the WWW and looked up the road toward Hogwarts. What the sodding hell was going on there? Where was the outrage in the streets here? He knew it was smarter that people weren't protesting, they'd be next in line as undesireables and all, but it seemed like something more should be happening. It wasn't why he was here, though, so he let himself inside and spotted Verity at the counter. He couldn't just keep telling himself to give her more time. They had to talk about this, without him being drunk.

Things had been slow lately, people venturing out of their houses less and less, which gave Verity more time to think. It wasn't necessarily a good thing. She'd mostly come to terms with the fact that she was going to be a mother. It still scared her, terrified her, if she were honest. It was such a huge responsibility and while she knew Fred wasn't planning on shirking his side of things, she wished things could have gone differently.

She loved Fred, she was sure of that. She'd loved him for a very long time, and not seeing him every day, avoiding him like she had been, hurt. There was an empty ache in her chest each night and, although she wouldn't admit it to anyone, she'd cried herself to sleep more than once.

So when she glanced up and spotted the flash of red hair, she thought she was imagining it. It couldn't be Fred, could it? But it was. And she couldn't help the small smile that curved her lips at the sight of him.

She smiled when she saw him - Fred caught that! It made him feel a little better about ambushing her, and his usual wide, joking grin was well in place by the time he made it to the counter and pushed himself up to vault it, then sit on it, grinning at her.

"Wotcher, Verity. What say you close up and we forget about this place for a day?"

Although all she wanted to do was push across the gap and wrap her arms around him, she stayed in place, not quite matching his wide grin, but not frowning either.

"Close up?" She echoed, arching an eyebrow and gesturing widely to the empty store. "What about all these customers?"

"Right, I think they'll make do with cowering in their houses, don't you?" He wanted to go down and see if any of the things he'd stocked up in the basement were gone, or needed to be restocked, but right now this was a little more pressing. "This what you're doing to my business, Weller? We may have to rethink this." He was obviously teasing.

Raising her wand, Verity flicked it at the door, locking it and flipping the sign to closed. "Hey, I'm sure your business has gone down since I've left too." She pulled a sexy face, flipping her hair over her shoulder. "There were loads of blokes who came in just to see me."

"Not a damn bit, still the busiest shop in Diagon." Of course, that was mostly because most days the Alley was a wasteland, but Fred figured that Verity knew that as well as he did. As she moved to cast, he let his eyes trail down her body. Was it just his imagination, or was there something a little different? Her breasts, maybe? Were they bigger? That, he had to admit, would be pretty sodding brilliant, even if he'd liked them perfectly well before.

"Maybe you should send Roger over here, I'll come back and help you lot." She shook her head and leaned back against the counter, wrapping her arms around her waist, in an unconscious attempt to hide the slight bump her stomach had rounded into. "You must be lost without me."

"Completely aimless," Fred said, rolling his eyes, and then he stood up from the counter and came toward her, watching her cover her stomach and not liking that in a book deep sort of way. It made him take her arms gently, pull them down to her sides, then to hide the move tug her in against him instead.

"Hi there."

Verity's heart skipped a beat when Fred came towards her and she all but melted against him, wrapping her arms around him and clinging to him for a moment. She had almost forgotten what it felt like to be held by him and buried her face against his shirt, blinking back sudden tears. "Hey." She answered, hoping her voice wasn't warbley.

"Hey," He said again, and he heard that warble in her voice and wondered if she was hormonal already, if she was going to cry at every little thing. Still, it felt really damn good to hold her again - it had been nearly three months. And something in him that he hadn't known was tense and tight relaxed, and he reached up to finger her hair gently.

There was loads she wanted to tell him, but nothing came out and she just snuggled into him, smiling slightly. "Admit it," she said after a long moment, her voice steady now, although she didn't want to let him go. "You missed me."

"Maybe," Fred sounded teasingly thoughtful, but there was something more serious, more intent underneath his voice. "Got randy, you know, and my hand got boring..." But his fingers stayed soft in her hair, and kissed the top of her head softly.

Verity pressed against him, arching her hips up, more for emphasis than anything else, although it wasn't as though she could get any more pregnant. "I've always enjoyed your hand," she said, swallowing a happy sigh at the feel of his lips against her head.

"Well, you'd get tired of it if it was all you had," Fred snorted softly, but then he tugged her hair gently so that her head tipped up to his and he could catch her mouth - just for a second, then he pulled away with a grin. "So, locking up? Forgetting about it for a night? Yeah?"

Unable to help it, Verity made a little noise at the pressure of his fingers in her hair, her eyes fluttering closed momentarily. Merlin, she'd missed this, missed him. When he pulled away, she only just managed to swallow a disappointed mew. "Sure," she shrugged, trying to be nonchalant about it even though all she wanted to do was jump him. "I think I can close up now."

Picking up her wand, she flicked it towards the front door, making sure it was locked, then at the lights, switching them off. "What now?" she asked, quietly, after a moment, suddenly anxious.

"Now?" Fred had pushed himself back up to the counter again while she was seeing to charming the shop closed, and when she came back he fixed her with a look that said she was completely caught. "Now I figured we'd talk about this baby, then go and get some dinner?"

Verity swallowed uneasily, nerves clenching in her stomach, anxiety written all over her face. She was feeling better about the whole... baby situation than she had been last time they talked, but it still terrified her. She wasn't sure how to make him understand that. "Talk? What about it?" She asked, backing up against the counter opposite him, just out of his easy reach.

"Well, it just seems like someone we should talk about is all," Fred shrugged, but there was a tightness to his shoulders that showed he really didn't know what he was doing running headlong into this conversation. It was a little nervewracking, really.

"Yeah," Verity shrugged and wrapped her arms around her stomach again, looking away from him. "You've sort of made your feelings clear," she responded, trying her hardest to keep her voice steady, but unable to.

Fred eyed her for a minute, and he was pretty sure this was what people felt like when they weren't expecting something to blow up under them or something, but knew it might. It was a sight he saw a lot in his shop, come to think of it. "Right, and you haven't because you've been avoiding me."

She opened her mouth to protest, to come up with excuses about being busy or Trevor bothering her or having to run the shop on her own, but nothing came out. "Yeah," she finally managed after a moment. "Yeah, I have been." She forced herself to look at him, but couldn't stop the tears welling up in her eyes and she hated it, she hated crying, hated feeling scared and emotional, but she couldn't help it. "I'm scared," she said quietly, her voice cracking midway through the word.

She was going to cry again! Fred didn't know what to do, honestly - what could he do that was ever as effective as that to bring someone to their knees? Fred pushed himself off the counter and crossed the space to her, but he didn't know if she really wanted him touching her right now. "Well, then let's talk about it? I mean, what's scary when I'm around, right? I fight Death Eaters for a living."

Verity shook her head, aching for him to take her into his arms and tell her it was going to be alright but knowing he couldn't promise that. She had so many worries, she didn't know where to begin; what if she was a shite mother? What if this ruined things between them? How could they do this, knowing what sort of world their kid was going to be growing up in?

"You planning on fighting the kid?" She joked miserably.

"Well, if it gives me any lip..." Fred grinned again, and then sod if she didn't want him too, he reached out for her anyway, tugging her closer slowly. "Come on, what's scary about babies? They eat and cry and make messes of their nappies. That's really about it for the first year or so, and after that you've gotten used to them."

Tucking herself against him, Verity shook her head again. "What if I'm shite?" She asked, voicing things she hadn't shared with anyone. "What if something happens to you? What if something happens to us?" After years of pining over him, she finally had him and now was mucking it all up.
