Oneshot of Molly and Arthur meeting properly for the first time. I own nothing you recognise. Please do enjoy.


Molly sighed. The worst thing about being in a group of five friends meant that everyone was in pairs because everyone knows that 'three's a crowd.'

There was Alice and Mary, Marlene and Lily, then just Molly. They had sat at a four person table in the library which had led Molly to excuse herself from her friends and instead go for a wander through the school and its grounds. She soon found herself sitting at the lake, pondering over everything she had learnt so far at Hogwarts and everyone she had met since first year.

"Mind if I interrupt?" A voice asked, the boy belonging to that voice sat down beside her.

"Gladly, I think human company is long overdue." Molly smiled. "You're Arthur, right? Arthur Weasley?"

The tall, handsome, red head nodded. "Yeah, Molly? Molly Prewett?" He offered his hand. "Nice to properly meet you."

Molly smiled and shook his hand. "You too, Arthur."

From then on, when Molly was left out of the group of five, she found a friend and then more in Arthur Weasley.
