Fred ran a hand through his now short hair. They had cut it over the summer thought it would look more professional than their long ginger locks they had from Hogwarts. They wanted to at least look like they were old enough to own a shop. Running his hands through hair became a habit when he had his longer hair, but now with his short hair it was just odd.

Fred thought George liked the shorter hair now because it showed off his missing ear which after the war was done with served as it's own bird magnet. His brother really did play the sympathy card.

His thoughts were getting off track again... He came out to find George and Lee remember? Now where in the bloody hell were they? They told him Leaky Cauldren at 6 it was now going on 7... Those two cannot be trusted with time...

Finally the two approached him lee chuckling and george sulking as well as Fred was.

"So you two are going back to Hogwarts? Never thought I'd see the day." Lee said before belting out yet another laugh.

"Not like we have a choice, They through us in the ministry law as the students who were 'Unable to complete needed academic standards due to war conditions.' Even though us leaving was entire our choice..." George replied

"Why such the long faces you two used to rule Hogwarts? The whole school is going to idolize you when you go back."

George and Fred grinned to that. They had to admit it would be nice having so many students practically worship them...

"Well you two won't be the Charming-duo you were in our year. You're sharing the spot light with Harry Potter and Ron. Two biggest war heros I doubt you'll even get a single bird to snog either of you." Lee said to them chuckling once more.

"You're bloody joking Either of us could get any girl easily. No sweat... I bet I could even Get Granger to fall in love with me if I tried." Fred said sarcastically, but I guess it only sounded that way in his own mind because the two who were now drinking their butterbeers looked at him in complete shock.

"It's a bet than." Lee stated first. George looked at his twin now eyebrows upraised in curiosity.

"What? I was bloody joking Lee, It's what we do."

"Ah, You being a coward now? Knew it, not even you could get Granger. She's just about untouchable out of even your league."

"No body, not even Granger is out of my league. Fine it's a bet. If I don't get her to fall for me by graduation then I'll clean you're entire flat the muggle way."

"No the bet has to be bigger than that. Something I know you'd never want to lose, So I know you're trying."

"Alright name your price."

"If you lose than you must go to the daily profit and make a statement saying you are not the miracle irresistable player everyone thinks of you, You clean my flat, and You move back into the burrow and not date any bird for a year after the bet is over." Lee stated satisfied with himself.

Fred gulped and thought for only a moment before saying with confidence,"Deal."

Little did Fred know at the moment he just made one of the most life changing events of his life, by just saying one little word Fred changed his entire world without even knowing it. The Confident Red-haired boy was so self-absorbed he put it all on the line.

Not only would he lose everything physically, but his pride would have a serious dent in it if he loses. His and his twin's record of never losing a bet would be ruined crushed all by one little tiny word.

Fred just chugged down his butterbeer not even thinking of the bet he just made. Not weighing the possibilities. It was just a bet? Hermione would understand, She'd have to as brilliant as she is.

George shook his head grinning into his butterbeer this was going to be an entertaining year he already knew. Just watching Fred try to win Hermione over would be enough to get him through the entire year. Now he could honestly say he was excited to board the red train in 2 days.
