Fred watched her quietly, though he still found himself wishing that she would just tell him, rather than dodging his question. Maybe it was a silly desire, but oh well.
"I just want the truth," he told her quietly, running a hand through his hair before he shook his head, his attention still fully on her. "That's all I want, I promise. Once you tell me the truth, if you want me to leave you alone, I will."
Though he wished that she wouldn't want him to leave her alone - because he really didn't want to leave her alone, not after whatever had happened in the Great Hall.
Trying to ignore that thought, though, he let his hands drop to his sides and frowned slightly, trying to figure out what was going on in her mind.
That wasn't too hard to figure out, though. Maybe she was lying to him because of her buddy, Draco. The thought made him feel a little bitter.

Lifting her head, she glared up at him, trying to debate whether there was a point in actually being honest about this.
And she decided that there wasn't.
Because she would lose her best friend if she was honest about it.
"I just thought you were somebody else. A cuter somebody else. When I realized it was you, though, I got angry at myself for thinking it was somebody else and rushed out. Happy?"
