I laid down on my new bed in my new temporary home. I looked up at the ceiling to see a giant spider staring back at me. 

"Oh sweet!" I said and stood on my bed to pick it up. It crawled on my hand and tickled me with it's legs. "Hey beautiful." Yes. I'm talking to a spider. But I love spiders. 

At that moment, my door banged open and I threw the spider across the room at the person who barged in. 

Alex started screaming and running around my room. 

I fell off my bed, onto the ground. "Haven't you ever heard of knocking?" 

"That's a huge spider!" she screamed. She moved so she could step on the spider that was now on the floor. 

"DON'T hurt it." I hurried and picked it up again. "It's harmless." 

"Sorry I'm spiderphobic." I looked at her confused.

"What?" 

"It's the fear of spiders. Either that or octopuses. But I'm scared of those too." Wow. This girl was stupid. 

"It's 'arachnaphobia'." I walked over to my window and opened it to let the spider free. 

"Whatever." She shooed me and sat on my bed. "So what brings you here?" 

"Things." I wiped my hands on my pants and took my wand out of my shoe and started unpacking. 

"Oh. I hate it when that happens." She looked down at her boots and clicked them. "My mom told me to tell you that you can talk to me and ask me questions and stuff if you ever need it." 

I nodded my head. "Can you shut the door on your way out?"

"Sure!" She skipped to the door but before she left said, "Oh. And don't let those things get to you, Ana. You're beautiful. Any guy would be lucky to have you." She walked out, shutting the door.

Yeah, any guy would be lucky to have me. You hear that conscience?

Pft. 

I rolled my eyes at my mind. I looked at my room closely. It was simple. And white. Very white. 

Time for a paint job. 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I walked back into my room from the paint shop where the fat manager was flirting with me. I got a bunch of small paint cans with a lot of colors. Green, blue, red, purple, black, yellow, and a big can of silver. 

I plugged in my iPod and the first song that came on was Caraphernelia by Pierce the Veil. I started head banging and throwing paint at the wall. 

I know it's not my property but white walls make me angry. I feel secluded, like I can't breathe. Color splashes all over the walls and I'm impressed by my job at the end. 

I nodded my head at the wall and cleaned up my mess. 

"Ana, dinner," a voice came from some unknown place. I looked around the room searching for where the noise came from. Wait, they feed us here? Awesome. 

"I hope it's chicken alfredo!" I told the voice. They didn't seem to answer. I started dancing again to the music and moonslid out of the room. 

Maybe I'll live after all.

Fred's POV 

The Battle at Hogwarts

My eyes shot open and I sat up quickly staring, at all the people in front of me. "Fred!" my mother screamed and engulfed me into a huge hug. "How are you alive? Are you okay? Oh you must be starving!" 

Everyone started crowding around me and asking a bunch of questions. It was getting pretty annoying. "Guys. I honestly don't know." 

They all stared at me in shock. "I just remember seeing Ana and her telling me to wake up. Wait, where is Ana?" I asked, a grin forming on my face. 

Everyone's bright smiles faltered. "She's gone, Freddie. She went back to the Burrow and she's leaving for America. Xyla told me," George said. 

My smile faded. "I need to go! She'll leave forever!" I moved so I could get up offf the bed I was on, but fell back down with an aching headache. "Ah."

"She'll be fine, Fred. We don't know what part of America she's in, she could have even changed her mind and gone someplace else," Mum said. "But I know she'll come back. She needs us, honey. The first thing we need to do though is get you cleaned up and better."

I looked at my mother and knew she was right about one thing: we don't know where she is. But I know the other thing was wrong: she won't come back. She doesn't rely on people too well.

A/N: Awww. You hear that? She won't come back. :( 

This is just the beginning though guys. It will get better. Sorry for the really stupid chapter. I wanted Fred's waking up to be like...way better. But I just wanted to upload to clear some minds of some questions. FRED DOESN'T KNOW WHERE ANA IS. No one does except Narcissa Malfoy. Geez guys.
