Bad Liar

Title: Bad Liar

Pairing: Ari Levinson x reader

Summary: Ari is a regular at the coffee shop that you work at and you can’t help but have a crush on the older gentleman.

Warnings: 18+ only, minors DNI!! I don’t think there’s too much to look out for in this one. Just maybe some angst, mild cursing, and Ari Levinson. (Yes he’s a warning especially when he doesn’t realize what he’s doing to you, or does he?) I apologize if I missed anything but you are responsible for what you read.

Wordcount: 877

It was mid-morning and you found yourself glancing up at the clock, it was almost nine and he still had not shown up yet. A small sigh left your lips as you finished up the order you were currently working on, a feeling of disappointment washed over. You wondered what could be keeping him this morning, he was usually here by now. You turned around and called the customer’s name to hand it to them. The bell above the door chimed again and when you turned to greet the next customer, you swore you felt your whole body short circuit. There he was, Ari Levinson; the man you have been harboring a huge crush for. When you finally snapped out of your daydream, you accidentally bumped into one of your coworkers. Your coworker, who had a tray full of freshly baked goodies that were now ruined as the tray fell to the floor. You frantically started to help her clean up the mess before she snapped at you.

“No, I’ve got this. You go and help the next customer.”

“I’m sorry.” You mumbled before getting up to do what she said.

To you, Ari was a dreamboat. He had gorgeous blue eyes that you could just stare into all of the time and simply get lost in them. Somehow, just somehow, you knew that his long brown hair was one of the softest things that God has ever made. You also thought that about his thick, full beard and wondered- no stop thinking like that. You took a deep breath as you walked up to the counter to take Ari’s order, even though you knew it by heart. You could recite his order in your sleep. When you finally made eye contact with the beautiful man, your heart skipped a beat and butterflies instantly formed in your stomach.

“Everything alright, sweetheart? You seem to be a bit flustered.” Ari’s voice was so smooth and deep, you could listen to him talk all damn day.

“Oh, yeah, everything’s fine. Just a bit clumsy today I suppose. Do you want your usual?” How you actually managed to talk was beyond you, especially with how dry your mouth was.

You could feel your knees going a bit weak as a smirk formed on his perfect lips as he tilted his head.

“You know my usual sweetheart?” He then arched a brow as he eyed you up and down.

Your cheeks started to heat up and you could feel yourself starting to feel even more flustered. “Of course. An Americano with an extra shot of espresso.”

“Very good, sweetheart.” Ari’s smirk twitched up slightly as he stared at you.

“Right! I’ll be right back.” You quickly turned around and started on his order.

When he finally left, you felt like you could breathe and let out the breath that you had been holding. You were a grown woman and yet, here you were acting like a teenager over their first crush. Surely there was something wrong with you. You groaned as you went about your shift.

A few days later and you were out running some errands when you spotted Ari across the street. You nearly ran into a sign when you did a double take to make sure if it was him or not. When you recovered from your near trip, a heavy sigh fell from your lips and you started to relax, realizing that it was not him. After you put yourself back together and fixed your hair, you continued about your day. However, throughout the day, your mind kept wandering back to Ari. Everywhere you looked you thought you saw him but it was always just your mind playing tricks on you and it was cruel. You found yourself wondering if he had a girlfriend and couldn’t help but feel a bit jealous, which was absolutely ridiculous. You shook your head to get rid of the thoughts that kept flooding through your mind.

During the week, the only thing that was on your mind was him, Ari Levinson. You wanted so desperately to make the thoughts in your mind a reality. You wanted to know what it would feel like to curl up next to him in your king size bed. Every day you do your best not to think about him but he’s always taking up a fraction of your mind. When Ari would come into the coffee shop, you would spasm and short circuit, sometimes you would even forget to breathe. Your coworkers ragged on you all of the time and tried to encourage you to talk to him or to ask him out. One day you were talking to one of your coworkers about him and you had not realized that he was behind you. A clear of the throat caused you to turn around and when you did, you were mortified.

“Not talking about me, are you sweetheart?” His eyes gleamed as he smiled at you.

“N-no, of course not Ari.” You managed to stutter out.

Once again, you could feel your cheeks beginning to heat up as he eyed you up and down.

“You know, you’re a bad liar.” Ari smirked.

A squeak escaped you and you couldn’t believe that you’d been caught.

Bad Liar

Did all my dreams never mean one thing? Does happiness lie in a diamond ring? Oh, I've been asking Oh, I've been asking for problems, problems, problems

“(Y/N), are you listening to me?”

“Huh?” you were snapped out of your thoughts and looked back to your friend. “Uh- y-yes” you insisted.

“Really? What was I talking about?” Angelina smirked.

“Um… about… the Yule Ball” you tried.

“Lucky guess” she glared at you. “Merlin, could you be more in love with him?” she laughed.

“W-what?” you asked, nervously. How does she know?

“Fred! You can’t stop staring at him” Katie intervened. Right, you’re ‘dating’, so nothing seems out of the ordinary to them. “I think is so sweet” she smiled.

“Yes, you look so much happier with him than you ever did with Cedric” Angelina added.

“Really?” you asked, smiling a little.

“Yes! Fred treats you like you’re the only thing that matters to him” Katie told you.

“That’s not true” you said, feeling your cheeks burn before you felt a small paper ball hit you on the head. You turned to see where it came from and saw Fred smiling at you from the other side of the classroom. Fred looked back at Professor Snape to make sure he wasn’t looking and then he started motioning to you so you would get his message. He pointed at you, then he made a stupid little dance, and then he pointed at himself, mouthing the words: ‘You. Ball. Me.’ You rolled your eyes but couldn’t help to laugh a little and nodded at him. “Yes” you nodded with a big smile that Fred returned before winking at you. “What?” you asked looking back at your friends who had their eyebrows raised at you.

“You were saying?” Katie smirked.

“Shut up!” you insisted, relieved when Professor Snape released the class and you all made your way to the Gryffindor Tower. It wasn’t long before Fred caught up with you and your friends.

“Hi, sweetheart” Fred said, throwing his arm around your shoulders. “I got this for you” he said, placing two chocolate chip cookies.

“Oi! Those were mine!” you heard the faint voice of Ron not so far from you.

“Thank you, Freddie” you smiled, kissing his cheek.

“What were you ladies talking about?” he asked, holding your hand and you closer to him.

“Nothing-” you started.

“Actually” Angelina interrupted you. “We were talking about how cute you two are” she smirked at you too and you rolled your eyes.

“Why, thanks, Angie” Fried smiled, kissing your forehead and smiling dreamily at you. “I believe so” he stated. “Don’t you, darling?”

“O-of course” you chuckled nervously as you finally reached the room where you had to wait for Professor McGonagall.

“Settle down everyone” Professor McGonagall said walking inside the room. You were standing on one side of the room with Angelina and Katie as the boys stood on the other side of the room. “Now, the Yule Ball has been a tradition of the Tri-Wizard Tournament since its inception. On Christmas Eve night we and our guests gather in the Great Hall for well-mannered frivolity. As representatives of the host school, I expect each and every one of you to put your best foot forward, and I mean this literally because the Yule Ball is first and foremost… a dance” she stated as groans emerged from the boys’ side and the girls seemed a lot more excited. “Silence” Professor McGonagall continued. “The house of Godric Gryffindor has commanded the respect of the wizarding world for nearly ten centuries. I will not have you in the course of a single evening besmirching that name by behaving like a babbling, bumbling band of baboons” she warned.

“Try saying that five times faster” George whispered to Fred making the guys laugh.

“Now, to dance is to let the body breathe, inside every girl a secret swan slumbers longing to burst forth and take flight” she said looking at the girls.

“Something’s about to burst out of Hilary but I don’t think it’s a swan” Ron whispered to Seamus, and they laughed.

“Inside every boy, a lordly lion prepared to prance” Professor McGonagall said glaring at Ron. “Mr. Weasley, will you be so kind to join me?”

Ron’s smile fell from his face as Professor McGonagall pulled him up to dance. You saw the faces of Harry, George, and Fred and you were trying really hard to contain your own laugh.

“Now, place your right hand on my waist” she told him.

“W-where?” Ron asked nervously.

“My waist, Mr. Weasley” Professor McGonagall repeated. Ron did as he was told and heard a wolf whistle coming from the crowd that you knew came from Fred. He turned to glare at the exact direction where he knew it came from and saw Harry trying to hide a laugh while the twins smirked at him. “Now, bend your arm. Mr. Filch” she said. Filch put on the record player and the music started. “And… one, two, three… one, two, three…” she repeated dancing around with Ron who was not having the best time of his life. Fred mocked his little brother, dancing with George as he smiled brightly at you, as you tried extremely hard not to laugh. He really loved this girl.

“Promise me you will never let him forget this” Harry leaned down to whisper to the twins.

“Never” they both said at the same time.

“Now, everybody, come together” Professor McGonagall said as she kept on dancing.

“May I have this dance, love?” Fred said, bowing in front of you, and you giggled loudly before taking his hand.

“Of course, Freddie” you said sweetly as you started dancing around the room.

“So…” he said, getting your attention. “I’ve been thinking-”

“Really? Well, that’s a first” you mocked him and he glared at you.

“Do you want to know, or not?”

“Sorry, continue” you smiled.

“Well, since this is the last Hogsmeade, I thought maybe we could… go on a date” he said, hoping you didn’t notice the blush rushing to his cheeks.

“Y-you… you want to go on a date with me?”

“Well, you know, given that… I’m your boyfriend and… we’re going to the Yule Ball and all” he chuckled. “It occurred to me that we never really had a date” he told you as you raised your eyebrow at him. “Fine! Ginny and Hermione asked me about our first date and when they found out we haven’t been in one, Ginny nearly kills me” he admitted.

“Fred, you don’t have to take me out on a date” you giggled.

“I know I don’t have to but, firstly, you deserve it. I mean I would even be a worse boyfriend than Diggory if I don’t take you out on a date” he explained.

“That’s sweet, Freddie” you smiled. “What’s the second motive?”

“Ginny terrifies me and she said she would actually kill me if I don’t” he quickly said.

“Well, I wouldn’t want her to kill my boyfriend and only prospect date for the Yule Ball” you chuckled. “So, I’d love to go on a date with you” you told him, trying as hard as you could to ignore the butterflies in your stomach when he smiled brightly at you.

“Great” he said, trying to contain his own excitement. “It’s a date, then” he smiled.

“It’s a date.”

*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*

You stood outside of Gladrags Wizardwear after you and your friends bought the perfect dresses for the Yule Ball. You were nervously waiting for Fred to arrive so the two of you could go on your first official date. You weren’t sure why you were so nervous. This was Fred. your best friend since you first arrived at Hogwarts. But now, suddenly, everything had changed.

You felt butterflies every time he smiled at you. You felt your cheeks burning when he complimented you or he kissed you. You thought it was probably because your last relationship ended up being a shitshow and Fred was the first person to show you any kind of love. Even a better love than Cedric ever did. So, you decided that today you were going to rationally organize your feelings for Fred. Because you could not be in love with your best friend, right? So the only logical thing to do is to take feelings out of this and just, think about it instead.

“Hey, love” you heard that beautiful voice behind you. Okay, this may be harder than you thought.

“Hi, Freddie” you smiled, turning around and smiling at him.

“What are you doing out here in the cold?” he asked, taking off his scarf and placing it around your neck. And here come the stupid butterflies.

“W-well, I was just waiting for you” you told him. “It is chaos in there” you said, waving at the store. “There are a billion girls trying on different dresses, if you went in, you’re never coming out” you told him.

“Well, that’s very thoughtful of you” he said, holding your hand and pulling you away. “Wait, where is your bag? Did you not get a dress?”

“I did, but Angelina took it with her” you told him.

“Why?”

“Because it’s a surprise and I knew that if I had it with me you would take it out and see it” you smiled.

“That’s not-!” he started. “Okay, yeah, that does sound like me” he laughed.

“So, where are we going?” you questioned, intrigued.

“Well, don’t worry, we are not going to Madam Puddifoot’s because I know you hated your dates there with Diggory” he told you.

“Y-you remember that?”

“Of course, I do” he said as if it was nothing. “So, instead, I thought we could go to Zonko’s, Toms and Scrolls, Honeydukes, and then the Three Broomsticks” he suggested.

“Really?” you asked excitedly.

“Yeah” Fred said, getting nervous all of the sudden. “W-would you rather do something else? I knew I should have asked you, but Hermione said-”

“Fred” you stopped him, kissing his cheek. “That sounds like a great date!” you smiled.

“Yeah?” Fred smiled at you.

“Yeah” you nodded as Fred kissed your forehead.

After visiting all your favorite Hogsmeade spots, you were now sitting in a booth at the Three Broomsticks and Fred brought two butterbeers to the table. Your nerves quickly faded away with Fred. Because this was still Fred. He was still your best friend. And you were now 100% sure that you were in love with him.

“So… all of the sweets are to make you ill?” you asked as Fred explained to you his latest invention with George while the two of you ate your Honeydukes candy. The Skiving Snackbox.

“Yes, not seriously ill, just ill enough to get you out of a class when you feel like it. They're double-ended, color-coded chews. If you eat the orange half of the Puking Pastilles, you throw up. Moment you've been rushed out of the lesson for the hospital wing, you swallow the purple half which restores you to full fitness, enabling you to pursue the leisure activity of your own choice during an hour that would otherwise have been devoted to unprofitable boredom. That's what we're putting in the adverts, anyway. So far we have Fainting Fancies, Fever Fudge, Nosebleed Nougat, and Puking Pastilles” he said, happily.

“Freddie, those sound brilliant!” you said, munching on a Sugar Quill. “You and George are really geniuses, you know that, right?”

“I think you’re probably the only person who’s ever called us that, love” he chuckled, eating another Chocolate Frog.

“I’m pretty sure I won’t be the last” you smiled, sitting closer to him. “Um… Freddie?”

“Yeah?”

You felt your heart beating a bit faster when he smiled at you, with a bit of foam on his upper lip and you cleaned it with your napkin. You wanted to tell him.

“I uh-” you wanted to say that you loved him and that you wanted this to be your first actual date. But instead, something else came out. “I have to go to the bathroom” you chickened out. “I’ll be right back” you smiled nervously, getting out of the booth.

Fred sighed, hoping that he hadn’t made anything weird. He had actually been looking forward to today all week. Well, if he was being honest, longer than that. A lot longer. He thought he might just see where you stood with him after a date and maybe he would get the courage to tell you that he wanted this to be your actual first date. Everything had been perfect so far, and he had been dying to kiss you since he picked you up in front of Gladrags Wizardwear.

“Well, isn’t this sweet?”

Fred was snapped out of his thoughts when a very unpleasant, yet familiar voice sat on the booth in front of him.

“What do you want, Pucey?”

“Relax, Weasel, I come in peace” he said, grabbing one of your Sugar Quills and Fred glared at him. “My bad, Weasley” he corrected with a smirk. “Sorry, force of habit. But, I do come in peace-”

“I seriously doubt that” Fred told him.

“Look, mate, I’m just looking out for you” he said, starting to eat your Sugar Quill.

“You’re looking out for me?” Fred asked with an angry chuckle.

“Yes, mate, I don’t think it’s fair, the way (Y/N)’s using you” he said.

“(Y/N)’s not using me” Fred said defensively.

“Isn’t she? Then why are you pretending to date her?”

“I hate to break it to you, but I’m not pretending. We’re in a relationship, no matter how that breaks your… well whatever it is you have instead of a heart” Fred told him.

“Uh-huh. So, that’s why she was Diggory’s treasure in the last task?”

“Look, you don’t know what you’re talking about-”

“I do, mate. She’s just going to use you until Diggory wants her back and then she’s gonna dump you” Adrian shrugged.

“That’s not true” Fred said, rolling his eyes.

“Isn’t it? Then I guess I’m wrong and the two of you are completely and madly in love” he smirked, taking a bite of the sweet.

“I really don’t get why this is any of your business or why you insist that (Y/N) and I are not dating-”

“You’re not” Adrian added.

“But, I can assure you that we are very happy with each other” Fred told him, starting to feel a bit on edge.

“That’s not what I asked you is it?” Adrian smirked. “See, I can clearly see that you’re in love with her. You have that stupid face whenever she comes near you. But, she doesn’t seem to feel the same way about you” he explained. “So, that means that this whole ‘thing’” he said, making air quotes with his fingers. “It’s until she gets bored. Dumps you, and runs back to Diggory.”

“Why the fuck would you even care? You need to leave (Y/N) alone-”

“Or what?” he snickered. “This whole ‘jealous boyfriend’ thing is not a very good color on you, Weasley” Adrian sighed.

“Is this because she hates you? Because you would probably be the last person she would date? Because you’re really not helping your case by being here and telling me all this” Fred told him.

“She doesn’t hate me. Trust me” Adrian told him, glaring at him a little.

“I think that out of the two of us, I know her pretty well” Fred said. “And believe me, she does” he smirked.

“How well do you actually know her, Weasley?” Adrian said, returning the smirk. “Because I will admit, if you are at least getting those benefits out of this, I might be just a little bit jealous” he said, noticing Fred’s cheeks and ears turning red.

“Get the fuck out of my table” Fred said, smashing his fist against the table. “I swear, Pucey, if you speak about (Y/N) like that again, I will kill you with my bare hands” he said between clenched teeth. Adrian simply smiled at Fred and stole another one of your Sugar Quills.

“Fine. I’ll leave” he said as if it was nothing. “But when she gets tired of you and runs back to Diggory, don’t say I didn’t try to warn you, Weasel” he said before getting up.

Fred took a few deep breaths, trying to calm down before you came back. He didn’t want you to see him like this, even if you would probably notice something was wrong like you did whenever he was upset. I can clearly see that you’re in love with her. But, she doesn’t seem to feel the same way about you. He hated to admit it but, Adrian was probably right. Not about the part of you using him, of course, he had agreed to do this with you. But what was going to happen once this whole thing was over? He hadn’t thought that far ahead. He wasn't sure if he would be able to just go back to being your friend. But what was he supposed to do? You didn’t love him back. Probably worse than Adrian being right, George was right. All along. He kept saying that this was the worst idea but he still did it. And now, he wasn’t sure how to out. Because he didn’t want to get out. But he knew you would.

“Hey” you said, snapping him out of his thoughts and sitting down next to him again. “Sorry I took so long, there was a line” you lied. You were trying to think of the best way to tell Fred that you were in love with him. But now his mood seemed to have shifted. “Is… everything okay?”

“Yeah” Fred quickly said, clearing his throat. But you could tell he was lying.

“Are you sure? You seem upset-”

“I’m fine, (Y/N)” he insisted. (Y/N). Not ‘love’ as he usually called you. Even more, now that the two of you were dating. You knew he was hiding something. Which was what really worried you. Fred never lied to you. “I’m gonna get something else to drink, okay?” he asked, getting up and walking away before you could respond.

“O-okay” you said, deflated. Maybe today wasn’t the best day to tell him after all.

*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*

“I’m in love with Fred!”

“BLOODY HELL!” George jumped, sitting up on his bed. “What the fuck, (Y/N)? What if I had been naked?”

“I would have been scarred for life! Did you hear what I just said!”

“You can’t just barge in on me like that! What if I was taking a huge dump!”

“Well, you weren’t!”

“But what if I was?”

“Then, gross! Did you fucking hear what I said!”

“Yes, yes. You’re in love with Fred” he rolled his eyes.

“I’m sorry to dump this on you, it’s just… well, everyone else thinks I’m already in love with him, you know? And now I am and I don’t know what to do! I didn’t see this coming!”

“Really? You didn’t think that pretending to date someone, holding hands, hugging, and kissing as much as you two do would make you develop feelings for him?”

“No…” you insisted but George glared at you. “Okay, fine! You were right! You said one of us would end up falling for the other and those feelings would not be reciprocated and IT HAPPENED!” you said, freaking out. “I’m the one! I’m the one who fell for Fred and now I don’t know what to do!”

“(Y/N), calm down. You’re overreacting!” he laughed.

“OVERREACTING?! No! George, I fucked up! We promised we wouldn’t do this! What am I supposed to do now? I can’t be with Fred anymore, but I also don’t want to break up with him because… well, I do want to be with him! But that’s not fair to him! That would be extremely selfish of me so… what do I do now?”

“Well… you could… tell him how you feel?” George suggested.

“Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Or… or, I don’t tell him and then I save myself from embarrassment when he rejects me!” you said, slapping his arm.

“So what is your plan then, to fake date him until he falls in love with you?”

“Do you think that could work?”

“(Y/N), this is ridiculous! Just talk to him and sort this out so you can both admit that you love each other and stop driving me crazy!” he snapped, widening his eyes when he realized what he had just said. He hoped he was wrong, but the look on your face told him that he had just fucked up.

“What did you just say?” you asked nervously.

“Uh... um... n-nothing! I said nothing at all!” he panicked.

“George!”

“I just said that you should tell Fred that you love him-!”

“No, no, no.... the, um, the... love 'each other' part?”

“E-each other? I don’t recall saying anything about each other-”

“Oh, Merlin!” you gasped. “Fred- Fred’s in love with me?”

“Did I- uh? Did I say that? I don’t think I’ve said that!”

“George!”

“Alright, fine! You two are a couple of idiots that are ridiculously in love with each other and are too idiots to notice!”

“W-well, what else did he say? I mean, does he… want to go out with me? R-really? Not this fake thing we’ve been doing?”

“Well, given that he's desperately in love with you, he probably wouldn't mind getting a cup of coffee or something!”

“George, this is serious!”

“Look, if Fred finds out that I told you this, he’s going to kill me!”

“If you don’t tell me what you know, I’ll kill you!” you smiled sweetly at him.

“Fine” he sighed. “What do you want to know?”

“How long has Fred been in love with me?”

“Probably since the day we met you on the Hogwarts Express, but he admitted it to me a few years ago” he said. “You didn’t really notice? You’re the only one he lets call him ‘Freddie’” he said.

“That’s not true, you call him Freddie!”

“Yes, whenever I make fun of you!”

“W-well, why didn’t he ever say anything to me?”

“Why do you think, (Y/N)? For the exact same reason you were just freaking out about him finding out you love him” he explained. “He didn’t want to make things weird between you two” he told you. “That’s also why he kind of distanced himself from you when you were dating Diggory” he said, rolling his eyes a little.

“Oh, Merlin” you said, sitting on one of the desks. “Then… w-why did he agree to pretend to date me? Now I feel horrible” you told him.

“See, this is why I said it was a bad idea. I just…” he sighed. “I didn’t want him to get hurt because I knew the more time he would spend with you, the more he would fall for you. I must admit though, you falling in love with him was a plot twist” he smirked.

“Shut up!” you glared at him. “Wait, so… this is a good thing!”

“What is?”

“I love Fred and he loves me so… I just have to talk to him so we can be together… but you know, seriously this time” you told him.

“Really?” he glared at you. “That’s the first thing I told you to do and you yelled at me and you slapped my arm!”

“Well, that was before I knew Fred loved me too!”

“Okay, so… now you know” he smirked. “So, what are you going to do about it?”

“That’s a good question! I mean, I’m gonna tell him, but how should I tell him?”

“For Merlin’s sake! Just walk over to him and tell him!”

“What if I do it at the Yule Ball? Don’t you think that would be romantic?”

“Sure, whatever ends this conversation” George said, exasperated.

“George!” you glared at him.

“What do you want me to say?” he laughed.

“Okay, that’s fair” you sighed. “I’ll tell him at the Yule Ball. I’ve decided” you smiled.

“Brilliant” he smiled, trying to be supportive.

“Just, do me a favor?”

“What’s that, love?”

“Don’t tell Fred” you told him.

“Oh, for fuck’s sake!”

“George! I promise I will tell him!”

“Okay!”

“I’m not joking, George. You have to pinky promise me!”

“Fine!” he said, sticking out his pinky. “I pinky promise!”

“You know that this is bigger than an unbreakable vow, right?”

“How is this big than an unbreakable vow? If you break an unbreakable vow you die!”

“Yeah, but if you break my pinky promise, I will kill you in a much more painful way than any unbreakable vow ever could” you said staring at him dead in the eyes. “Got it, Weasley?” you asked, glaring at him and George tried to not look as nervous as he actually was.

“G-got it!”

Oh, hush, my dear, it's been a difficult year

And terrors don't prey on

Innocent victims

Trust me, darling, trust me, darling

It's been a loveless year

I'm a man of three fears

Integrity, faith and

Crocodile tears

Trust me, darling, trust me, darling

So look me in the eyes

Tell me what you see

Perfect paradise

Tearing at the seams

I wish I could escape

I don't wanna fake it

Wish I could erase it

Make your heart believe

But I'm a bad liar, bad liar

Now you know

I'm a bad liar, bad liar

Now you know, you're free to go (go)

Did all my dreams never mean one thing?

Does happiness lie in a diamond ring?

Oh, I've been askin'

Oh, I've been askin' for problems, problems, problems

I wage my war, on the world inside

I take my gun to the enemy's side

Oh, I've been askin' for (trust me, darling)

Problems, problems, problems

So look me in the eyes

Tell me what you see

Perfect paradise

Tearing at the seams

I wish I could escape

I don't wanna fake it

Wish I could erase it

Make your heart believe

But I'm a bad liar, bad liar

Now you know

That I'm a bad liar, bad liar

Now you know, you're free to go

I can't breathe, I can't be

I can't be what you want me to be

Believe me, this one time

Believe me

I'm a bad liar, bad liar

Now you know

That I'm a bad liar, bad liar

Now you know, you're free to go

Please believe me

Bad Liar

But I'm a bad liar, bad liar Now you know, now you know I'm a bad liar, bad liar Now you know, you're free to go

“Fred, let’s just go!” George said, rolling his eyes. “The second task is about to start!”

“But I promised her we would go together” Fred said, trying to look for you through the crowd.

“Maybe she’s already there, mate” Lee suggested.

“Yeah, maybe she lost track of time or something and thought it was best to meet you there” Katie said.

“That doesn’t sound like her” Fred said, confused. “She said we’d meet here” he told George as they all started walking towards the Great Lake, George taking the bets of who would win the following task.

You and Fred had been ‘dating’ for a couple of months now and to both of your surprise, it hadn’t been that difficult. Except for one problem. Every single day, Fred fell a little more in love with you. He tried his best to make it stop but it was basically useless. The more time he spent with you, the more he fell. Which wasn’t hard since he had been pretty much in love with you before this whole thing. Before he actually got to hold your hand and act like your boyfriend. Before he got to kiss you. Before he started noticing the way you smiled whenever he did something for you. He still tried his best to keep everything hidden from you and from George. It was harder with the latter though.

“So, how’s the fake dating doing? I mean I must say you play the part of the worried boyfriend to perfection” George mocked his brother while the rest of their friends walked in front of them and he kept collecting bets of people passing by.

“Shut up, George! And I am worried about her. I haven’t seen her since dinner yesterday when Professor McGonagall came looking for her” he told him.

“Aw, you miss your girlfriend?”

“Mate, what is your problem with this whole thing?” he said stopping, suddenly. “Is it because she asked me and not you?”

“First of all, she kissed you, thinking you were me” George smirked proudly. “And secondly, you guys have been doing this for months and you’re pretending to be in love with her to everyone else but you’re pretending to not be in love with her to her so… I still don’t think this is a good idea, Freddie-”

“Look, I’m fine. I can handle this, okay?” Fred said as they started walking again. “We’re best friends. I’m just doing her a favor. You didn’t see how upset she was the last time she ran in, to Diggory. And Pucey wasn’t buying it at first but I think he’s finally laid off her now so, it’s working” Fred explained.

“And your crush?”

“THERE’S NO CRUSH!” he snapped, whispering so people around them wouldn’t hear.

“Really? Is that why you brought her an extra hot chocolate?” he said, looking at the cups in Fred’s hands.

“I do this all the time for her!” Fred said rolling his eyes, arriving at the Great Lake.

“Alright mate, whatever you say” he told him as they joined their group of friends. “Just don’t say I didn’t warn you” he said.

“Do you see here anywhere?” Fred asked, still looking for you in the crowd when he heard the announcement coming from the speakers.

“Well, all our champions are ready for the second task, which will start on my whistle. They have precisely an hour to recover what has been taken from them. A treasure of sorts, from the bottom of the Lake. On the count of three, then. One . . . two . . . three!”

Fred was actually starting to get worried he knew you wouldn’t miss something as big as the second task, and if you would, you would have told him.

“Well, isn’t this interesting?” he and George heard a voice behind them and turned to glare at Adrian Pucey. “Weasels” he nodded his head.

“Isn’t there anywhere else you could sit?” George snapped.

“Well, there is. But I thought I’d see your lovely ‘girlfriend’ here” he smirked at Fred. “Where is she?”

“That’s… none of your business” Fred said, annoyed.

“Oh, you don’t know, do you?” he mocked the ginger. “Well, it looks like you’ll find out when Diggory comes back up” he simply said.

“What the fuck does that mean?” Fred muttered.

“Fred, don’t bite” George rolled his eyes. “He just wants to get on your nerves” George told him.

“No, I don’t” Adrian said, grabbing the hot chocolate Fred had left on the seat he was saving for you. “I mean if she were my girlfriend-”

“That would never happen” Fred said, feeling his face burning red but Adrian ignored him and kept going.

“I would like to know where she is and if she is the… what did they say? The treasure of sorts that her ex is looking for. It looks like it’s people down there and the girl he’s currently dating is down there waiting for him to surface and she’s nowhere to be found” he said. “But maybe that’s just me” he said, trying to take a sip of the beverage in his hand but Fred snapped it out of him.

“That is not for you!” he glared at Adrian.

“How sweet of you, Weasel, to bring her something for when she comes out of that Lake with Diggory” Adrian laughed.

“Don’t listen to Pucey, Fred” George said, turning both of them around.

Fred tried really hard not to. He tried his hardest to focus on something else as the clock kept moving but he was growing extremely anxious. You were nowhere to be found. This was not like you at all. He was snapped out of his thoughts when the crowd started cheering. Someone was back. Fred stood up and looked down at the Lake where he saw Cedric pulling you out and his felt his heart drop. Adrian had been right. You were Cedric’s treasure.

You opened your eyes and took a deep breath when you realized you were surfacing out of the Great Lake with Cedric next to you. The last thing you remembered was Professor McGonagall and Professor Dumbledore saying that you, Hermione, Ron, and a younger girl you had never met, were going to help with the second task and explaining some safety rules about it. And now, here you were, the crowd in the stands was making a great deal of noise; shouting and screaming. They all seemed to be on their feet as you felt Cedric’s arm around your waist while you heard an announcement over the speakers about him being the first one back.

“What the bloody hell is going on?” you coughed before you saw a shark surfacing out of the water with Hermione by its side. “AAHH!”

“Relax, (Y/N), that’s Viktor” Cedric said, pulling you over to where the Professors were waiting for you with blankets.

“Don’t touch me, Diggory” you asked, pushing him away.

“Why are you so upset? I just rescued you!”

“Rescued me? Why did you have to rescue me?”

“That was the second task! They took a treasure from us and-”

“A treasure? What the fuck? Why am I your treasure? You’re dating Cho! Why aren’t you rescuing her?”

“Well, I just-”

“No! Oh, Merlin! You are so much worse than I remember! I thought you had finally moved on and leave me alone!” you said swimming away from him and more towards Hermione and the two of you got out of the Lake and were wrapped in blankets.

“Are you alright?” she asked you.

“I’m fine. You?”

“I’m okay” she told you. “You were Cedric’s person?”

“You were Viktors?” you smirked a little.

“Fair enough” she said, looking away. “Have you seen Fred?”

Fred. Holy shit.

“Oh, Merlin! Fred!” you freaked out.

You were so upset about this whole thing, you hadn’t even thought about him. You and Fred had been getting even closer this past couple of months. You had thought that by now this whole thing would be behind you but, the truth is, part of you didn’t want it to end. You were enjoying your time with Fred. He was so sweet, charming, and funny, and he treated you so nicely, you had the feeling that you were slowly developing a crush on him. You weren’t sure how to deal with this but you didn’t want to freak Fred out before you figured it out. And now, everything could be ruined thanks to stupid Cedric Diggory having you as his treasure to retrieve.

You tried to look for Fred in the crowd but instead, you spotted a very enraged-looking Cho throwing daggers your way. You couldn’t really blame her but you couldn’t really worry about that now. You needed to find Fred. And you finally spotted him getting off the bleachers and walking away from the Lake.

“There he is!” Hermione said, pointing at him.

“Shit, I have to go! I’ll see you later!” you said, wrapping the blanket closer to you and walking away.

“(Y/N), come back!” you heard Cedric’s voice far away. “We have to talk about this!”

You completely ignored him and walked through the seas of people to try and catch up to Fred. There was nothing you needed to talk about with Cedric. What you needed was to talk to Fred and hope he wouldn’t be as angry as he looked.

“Fred!” you shouted, walking after him through the gardens and towards the castle, but he seemed to ignore you completely. “FRED!”

“Shouldn’t you be back at the Lake receiving your award or something?” he snapped as he kept on walking away from you.

You felt your heart breaking entirely at the tone in his voice. Fred had never talked to you like this. Ever.

“Fred! I know you’re upset! Could you please stop walking and talk to me about this?” you asked, making him abruptly stop and turn back to look at you.

“Talk about what? How you were Cedric’s treasure? Whatever that means! How do you think it felt, (Y/N)? Everyone around me was staring because my ‘girlfriend’ was her ex-boyfriend’s person to save. It was humiliating! I look like an idiot! Pucey was having the fucking time of his life-!”

“Look, I get that you’re upset, but I can explain-!”

“Really? Can you?”

“Stop yelling at me!” you snapped.

You had no idea why you were feeling so guilty about this. You knew how it may look to everyone who thought you were dating Fred, but you thought Fred himself wouldn’t be this furious at you.

“No! You don’t get to play the victim now! I have been trying to help you get over Cedric for the last couple of months and now you’re his person on the Lake?”

“That wasn’t my fault!”

“Oh no, of course not. This is just vintage (Y/N). I mean, things just sort of happen around you and it’s never your fault. You're off in (Y/N)-land, doing your (Y/N)-thing, while I’m here trying to help you and then I’m the one who looks like an idiot while you’re just being totally oblivious to people's feelings!”

“That’s not fair!” you said, feeling your eyes starting to water.

“You know what? I can’t do this right now, I just need some time alone” he said, turning around and walking away from you again.

“No! Wait, Fred!” you yelled for him and tried to walk after him again but you got your feet tangled on your blanket and you fell down on your knees, feeling the pain of the gravel underneath and hurting your hands.

“(Y/N)!” Fred ran back over to you and knelt down next to you. “Are you okay?”

“I’m fine” you said, quietly as tears started streaming down your face.

When you lifted your face and he was looking back at you with his soft, brown, beautiful, worried eyes, it hit you. You knew why you felt so guilty. You knew why it hurt so much that Fred was upset with you. You didn’t have a crush on him. You were in love with Fred Weasley. You had no idea when it happened, but it did. And you couldn’t go back.

“Merlin’s sake, you’re freezing” he said, feeling your hands. He was about to take his sweater off but you stopped him.

“It’s okay, I have a blanket” you told him softly. Fred sighed, feeling guilty for yelling at you. You seemed just as upset as he was, if not more, and you were soaking wet while it was freezing.

“You’re still soaking” he said, helping you up and wrapping his arms around you. You felt a million times better, resting your head on his chest.

“I’m sorry” you said, with tears falling down your chees and looking up at him.

“No, love. Don’t worry about that… let’s just get you dry and then we can talk about this, okay?”

“But I don’t want you to be mad at me” you told him. Fred smiled sweetly at you before he kissed your forehead.

“I’m not mad” he assured you. “Come on” he said, wrapping his arm around your shoulders and guiding you to the castle.

After taking a long hot shower, you dried yourself up and grabbed Fred’s Christmas jumper (which had become your favorite thing in the entire world), and walked out of your dorm and down to the Common Room where Fred was waiting for you. You were glad everyone was probably still at the second task or celebrating or something. Fred was near the fireplace with blankets and pillows on the floor and two mugs of hot chocolate waiting for you.

“Um… hi” you smiled shyly at him. It was as if you were looking at him in a completely different light and now you had no idea how to act around him.

“Hi” he said, smiling at you on the floor and patting the spot next to him so you would join him. “Are you feeling better?” he asked, handing you your mug.

“I am” you smiled at him. “Are you?”

“I’m sorry” he sighed.

“What? Fred, you have nothing to be sorry about” you told him.

“Yes, I do. I shouldn’t have stormed off like that and then snap at you” he explained.

“I’m really sorry, Freddie” you said, looking down at the steam coming out of your mug. “Professor McGonagall called me last night after dinner with Ron, Hermione, and a little girl that I think is Fleur’s sister” you started. “They said that we were going to help with the second task and explained some safety instructions but that was it. I had no idea that it was about the champions having to find their… treasure or whatever. I mean, Hermione was Viktor’s and they only met a few months ago” you told him. “I didn’t really know what it was until I kind of woke up with Cedric next to me and he explained the whole thing” you told Fred.

“What did you do when he told you?” Fred asked, feeling a bit anxious about the answer.

“I pushed him away and got out of the Lake with Hermione” you replied. “And then I went looking for you” you told him.

“You didn’t even stay for him to receive his award” he chuckled. “He was the first one back” he explained.

“I honestly… don’t care. I don’t care about Cedric, Fred” you insisted. “I cared more about you being upset with me” you admitted. “I hate when you’re upset with me” you admitted.

“I’m not upset with you, love” he said, pulling you closer to him.

“Freddie…” you said, looking down at your mug again. “D-do you want to stop this?”

“Stop what?”

“This” you said pointing at the two of you. “I’ve dragged you into this long enough and I would completely understand if you don’t want to do this anymore. I mean, it’s kind of the perfect out for you, we just had a fight and-”

“Is that… what you want?” Fred asked, feeling his heart pounding heavier than he’d ever felt it. He did not want this to end. Fake or not, he loved being with you. But if you were done with it he would respect your decision.

“Um…” you sighed. You did not want that. You wanted to figure out your feelings for Fred and if the two of you were to ‘break up’ you thought maybe Fred would want nothing to do with you and probably meet someone else. You’d heard a lot of girls taking an interest after the Weasley twins, and while you didn’t use to mind, the thought of it now made your stomach flip. But you couldn’t be selfish. You couldn’t have Fred all to yourself. “I just feel a little guilty that you have to keep doing this for me. I mean, I don’t even know if you want to take someone else to the Yule Ball and you’re stuck going with me-”

“(Y/N)” he said, stopping your rambling. “Look, I’m really sorry about today-”

“No, but you don’t have to be sorry, Fred. I got us into this whole mess and it was all my fault!”

“It wasn’t” he assured you. “It’s Diggory’s fault” he rolled his eyes and you laughed a little. “Listen to me, love” he said, pulling you closer. “If I’m being honest, the past couple of months have been the most fun I’ve had in a really long time” he said, surprising you. “And I am certain that I would have more fun with you at that stupid Ball than with anyone else” he chuckled, making you smile. “So stop feeling guilty and stop thinking that you’re dragging me into this horrible deal where I get to spend time with you and have fun whenever Diggory and Pucey look at me like they want to murder me, and also get cookies whenever you want to show off that I’m your boyfriend. I mean, do you really want to take that away from me?” he asked, pouting. “I can do this as long as you need me to, love” he said, knowing in his heart that he would actually do anything you asked him to. “So… do you want to break up with-?”

“No!” you said a little too quickly. “N-no. I just… didn’t want you to feel obligated to-”

“I don’t” he insisted.

“Well… in that case… I’m actually having a lot of fun too” you admitted.

“Really?”

“Are you kidding? Having you spoil me like this?” you asked, showing off your mug. “I can easily get used to it” you mocked him before you took a sip of your drink, getting a little whipped cream on your nose. Fred laughed a little at how cute you looked and wiped it away with a napkin. “Thank you, Freddie” you said, resting your head on his shoulder. “For everything” you said, kissing his cheek.

“Of course” he said, kissing the side of your head. “I love you” he said, casually.

You felt your entire heart flutter only to confirm what you had been thinking since you followed Fred after the Lake. “M-me too” you smiled nervously at him.
