First off I would like to apologize for the long long wait. I think its been almost two years since I wrote for this story and I'm so sorry. I re-edited the first three chapters and then added this one. I actually am kinda proud of this chapter and I hope everyone will enjoy it.

Aulora's Snow Kisses

It was a good thing that George offered to stay and help because for some reason tonight after the rain stopped, everyone decided to come out for some ice cream and the place was crowded. Aulora protested about him staying to help but in the end, he wouldn't let her win. She dropped her shoulder in defeat and showed him what to do. It was tiring at first but in the end he got the hang of it and after that, George had to admit they made a good team.

They were getting through their rush and George would causally look over at Aulora. She had a big white smile on her face that he noticed was always there when she was dealing with a customer. He didn't understand how someone who has lost so much could still enjoy life. He wanted that happiness, not only for himself but for his family. When he hugged Ginny earlier he could feel how much she was hurting, but he also felt some of that hurt leave her body.

"What are you thinking about?" He felt someone ask him as his leg was nudged to the side. He looked to his right to see Aulora standing there with a smile on her face as she wipes her hands with a towel.

"What?" He asks her as he scratches the back of his neck.

"You don't stare off into space for that long unless you are thinking about something. What's up?" She answers. She leans her back against the counter and crosses her arms over her chest, facing George.

"I was just thinking about my sister. I thought about what you said, so when I went back to my shop I washed up a little and went to help out. It was actually kind of fun." He says with a small smile.

"That's good." She says cheerfully. She was happy to hear that George does want to move on. She would never want someone to stay in depression. Everyone deserves to be happy and to see that George wants that too made her feel better.

"Yeah and when my brother and sister were leaving I hugged Ginny and it's like I could feel everything she was feeling."

"You think she needed it?" She asks stepping closer to him.

George nods his head immediately. "Ginny definitely needed it but I think I needed it also." He admits. He looks up and saw Aulora smiling brightly at him. He didn't know what it was but there was something about her smile that just could calm George down, made him feel like things were going to be okay and he needed that.

"Lori." They hear a little kid shout. They both turn around to see Noe coming in with a little boy with brown hair, and a smile that look almost too familiar. Aulora smiles at George and grabs his hand before dragging him to the kid.

She bends down and grabs the kid into her arms. "Hey honey. How was Mrs. Janette house?" She asks as she pulls back.

"It was okay. Noe said I could have ice cream. Can I?" He squeals in happiness.

"Sure but first I would like you to say hi to my friend. George this is my brother Lenny. Lenny this is my friend George." She introduces.

George takes and knee and stick out his hand. "Hi Lenny."

"Hi ya George." He says as he acts like a big boy and takes George's hand. George chuckles and looks back and forth from Lenny to Aulora. You could tell they were brother and sister. They had the same bone structure and the same hazel eyes with the same smile but each smile gave off a different feeling for George. Every time he saw Aulora's smile he felt calm and peaceful with a hint of butterflies, it was the only way he could describe it. But when he saw Lenny's, he felt a sense of the past, like an adult going down memory lane. He felt a sense of Happiness.

"Do you want some help Aulora? It's busy tonight. I'm sure it would be okay." Noe offers as she takes a look around.

"None sense. Why don't you go home? Get some sleep or go hang out with some friend. We will be fine here and I'm sure Lenny would love to help out." Aulora tells her as she wraps her arm around Noe's shoulder and leads her to the door. George watches her but looks down when he feel someone tugging on his pants. He sees Lenny looking up at him.

"Can you help me get my ice cream?" He asks.

George smiles and takes Lenny's hand before taking him behind the counter and helping him. After she finished talking to Noe, Aulora looks to the counter to see Lenny and George playing together and the sight almost brought tears to her eyes. They were laughing and playing with the ice cream. She saw George dip his finger into the ice cream and wiping it on Lenny's nose, which caused Lenny to have a giggle fit. It was a true beauty to see both boys coming to life.

- (A couple hours later) -

George ended up staying the whole night and helped Aulora closed down while she took Lenny upstairs to bed. When she came back down George could tell she was tired and sat her down on one of the couches. He brings her a small cup of water before sitting next to her.

"Thank you for helping tonight George." She tells him as she makes herself comfortable.

"No thank you Aulora for today. I think I really do owe you my life. I haven't lived this much in what feels like forever." He tells her. He felt his cheeks flush and turns his head away.

"It will get better George." She whispers as she brushes her knuckles over his cheek.

George doesn't answer but he does give her a nod. "I do have a question for you though." He starts.

He turns to face her and see her waiting for the question. "Where did you get the name Snow Kisses?" He asks.

She burst out laughing and throws her head back. "You scared me there.. But umm Lenny made it up. It was his idea for the Ice cream parlor and so I asked him what it should be called and he said 'It should be called after you kisses, your snow kisses' I felt like I had no choice." She admits with a smile.

George felt himself smiling back and nods his head. "You are amazing Aulora. After everything you've been through and you can still do all of this and you are doing a wonderful job raising your brother. You are just… incredible. How do you do it?"

"It's actually easy. It just needed to be done." She tells him and George found himself looking at her with a raised eyebrow. "I miss my family so much and they gave me a good life while they could and I felt like I had to give my brother the best life I could give him with what I had and that is what I will continue to do until I die."

George felt himself flinch when he heard that and shakes his head. "Please don't say die, especially when it comes to you."

Aulora cups his face and turns his head to her. She brings her face close to his and looks him in the eye. "I'm not going anywhere and I'll be here whenever you need me. I promise you George." She tells him. She rubs her thumb up and down his cheek waiting for him to say something.

But he couldn't. He couldn't bring himself to say anything. It felt like he had so much to say, yet nothing at all. He just kept looking into her hazel eyes and before he knew it. He brought her lips to his. He felt so much for this girl that he met today but there was just something about her that took his pain away. He kissed her like his life depended on it.

Aulora was definitely taken by surprise by it but kissed him back. She felt that spark that she only heard in movies or stories but once George's lips touched her she felt a spark go through her body. It was a good thing she was sitting down cause she felt like if she tried to stand her legs would turn to jelly.

When they both realized air would be necessary they pull apart but both of their eyes were still closed and they were breathing heavy. When they both open their eyes they were both clouded with lust or love? George couldn't decide which one.

"I think I better go." He whispers and she nods her head. She leans her forehead on his before pulling back and letting him go.

"Can I come back tomorrow?" He asks.

She smiles and nods her head. "George you can come back whenever you want." She tells him. He smiles and pulls her close, laying her head into the crock of his neck. Aulora wraps her arms tightly around him and lays a butterfly kiss on the side of his neck. They stayed like that for a minute before George finally lets go and stands up. Aulora walks him to the door and leans against the door frame.

"This day was the best day of my life." He whispers to her before kissing her gently on the lips. "I'll see you tomorrow." He tells her after he pulls back.

She nods and watches him walk away. She felt breathless after that, just watching him walk away. She didn't expect any of this when she woke up this morning. She sighs out with a smile before giggling and closing the door.

When George arrived at the front of his store he stood there for a while. He wanted to go to bed. It did help to know the next time he wakes up he could see Aulora again but still a part of him felt like there was something he had to do and he knew what it was, he just wasn't sure if he was ready to do it.

'Come on Gred man up' He heard the whisper in his ear. He didn't know if it was actually Fred or if it was just his consciousness but it worked because with one deep breath he apparated to the front of the burrow.

The burrow

He looked up and sigh before walking in to the house. He knew it was late but he was hoping someone was still up. He heard noise come from the kitchen and made his way there.

"It's time for bed sweetheart don't you think?" He heard his dad tell his mother, it sounded like she was still washing the dishes.

"Yeah mom we can finish that for you." He heard Bill offer so he knew that Bill and Fleur was there as well. He walks into the kitchen and clears his throat.

"George." Everyone gasp at his arrival and he felt him shallow. "What are you doing here? Is everything okay?" His dad asks. His saw his mother walks towards him but even he could tell she was unsure about hugging him.

"Hey everybody I just came because umm.." He started. Molly was standing in front of him and he could tell she was tired. She was sad and although she tried to stay as strong as she could she was breaking. The sight brought tears to his eyes. Aulora was right, his family was hurting just as much as him and all he wanted was Fred to come back. He knew tears were running down his face as Molly brought her hand up to his cheek.

"I'm sorry mom. I'm sorry." He tells her before breaking down and pulling her into his arms. He felt her arms wrap around him and felt her angst and desperation. He felt her tears running on to his shoulders and just held on to her tighter. He hadn't done it before, well not since Fred died and him and mother finally had the hug and the cry that was long overdue.

Like I said I am so sorry for the long ass wait but I hope you all enjoyed it. i will try to update as soon as I can but I can't make any promises. Maybe if I watch Harry Potter it will help me continue. Let me know what you think though everyone.

Thank you for reading,
