Disclaimer-JK Rowling owns, I just like to play.

Charlie looked at the clock for the millionth time in 10 minutes, 5:48. Was the stupid clock working? He went over and could hear the tick tock of it and he sighed in frustration. Whenever he wanted something it seemed to take forever to get here and this double date thing as Ginny so eloquently put was something he wanted bad. He took out the picture of him and Hermione at Bill's wedding and rubbed his thumb over her face. For two years he had dreamt about Hermione, always getting mad at himself because she was with his brother. When she had spent that time with him in Romania it had taken all of his will power not to throw her over his shoulder and ravish her. It had gotten close a couple times after they both had a few drinks, where he stopped caring but it had never gotten farther than lusty thoughts and "accidental" touches.

He looked at himself in the mirror; he was dressed in dark blue jeans that fit him extremely well. Tight in all the right places and extremely comfortable in case they decided to do something after dinner. And he was wearing a tight black t-shirt that accentuated his muscles. His hair was dried and shook out looking sexily mussed. He accessorized with the silver watch his parents had gave him on his 17th birthday and a silver chain. He looked away from the mirror and over to the bouquet of Gerber daisies he had bought for Hermione. He thought about getting her long stem red roses but realized that was too cheesy and he had remembered that Hermione had told him that they were her favorite flowers. So he got them and charmed them to change colors. He looked at the clock again. 5:50. Okay that's it he thought, he decided to apparate over early. He couldn't wait to see her. He grabbed his black dragon skin coat (like leather) and the flowers and with a poof he was gone.

OoO

Hermione was nervous; she kept trying to tell herself that this was just dinner with friends. Yes two friends that were very much together and he ex's big brother that she had harbored feelings for, but just dinner. Her heart started to thump in her chest and her stomach felt like there was a flock of butterflies in it. Her makeup looked smoldering and she had killer heals on. Ginny had stared at her in shock when she had walked down. The memory of that face made Hermione giggle a bit and her muscles relaxed. Even if this turned out to be the worst idea ever, it was always nice getting dressed up and looking hot when you're feeling down about yourself. She looked at the clock, 5:48. Uggghhh, she really wanted 6:30 to come, she couldn't wait for everyone to get here. Ginny had to help Harry get ready but she promised she'd be back before Charlie got to her house. Hermione didn't know how to handle being alone with him right now. Which was so weird because she had lived one on one with him for 3 months while she was in Romania. She guessed it had all to do with timing, and the fact that even though she only kissed him half way on the lips it had affected her more than any other kiss she had ever had. And it was only half of his lips. She couldn't understand what was going through her head. She decided to re touch her lipstick when she heard a poof and knock on the door and she slightly missed her lips. Sighing Hermione yelled "Come in, it's open." She figured it would just be Ginny. She turned as the door opened and in walked the person she didn't expect to see for at least a half hour.

"Charlie?" Hermione stuttered out her eyes wide.

"Hey Hermione, I was really bored at home and figured you and Ginny wouldn't mind if I showed up a bit early." He said walking up to her with a big bouquet of flowers. "I also brought these for you." He said handing her the most beautiful flowers. He stopped dead looking her up and down. His eyes bugged out a bit. She looked absolutely breathtaking.

"Oh Charlie!" Hermione said excitedly, "You brought my favorite flowers and ohhh they change color. They are so beautiful. Ginny actually had to help Harry get ready but I don't mind that you're early" She leaned in and inhaled their fragrance.

Charlie took a deep breath and shook his head, he then smiled at her reaction, Yah these were definitely better than roses, and he mentally patted himself on the back.

Hermione quickly walked into her kitchen to grab a vase for them, she couldn't believe how thoughtful he was. And that he remembered her favorite flowers, something she mentioned forever ago. "Charlie thank you so much for these," she turned to him smiling.

"No problem Mione, it's just great to see you smiling," he said smiling back. Then he cocked his head to the side. "I think you have something on your lip."

Hermione went a deep shade of red, "Oh no," she said embarrassed. She turned to run to the bathroom to get away but Charlie's hands on her shoulders stopped her. "Don't be embarrassed, it's cute." He said laughing. He reached his thumb out and slowly wiped along her upper lip. The touch was anything but innocent and Hermione shivered from his touch.

"You look so beautiful," Charlie whispered and Hermione leaned into his touch that had turned from wiping her lip to cupping her face.

They both lean in and their lips just touch when they hear popping of apparition and the opening of the front door, they quickly leap apart from each other. Hermione turns and hides her face in the flowers and Charlie quickly sits at the table, trying to hide the bulge in the front of his pants.

"Oh Charlie you're here already." Ginny says sauntering into the room and kissing her brother on the cheek. She noticed that under his tan he looked to be blushing. She quickly looked at Hermione and noticed a definite blush on her face and wondered what Harry and her had walked in on.

Harry walked up to Charlie and they shook hands. They hadn't seen each other in a while and immediately sat down to talk. Men and their bonding.

Ginny quickly walked up to Hermione and said, "Hey sweetie, I think I got some mud on my dress when we apparated can you help me with the wand movement to get it off." She said giving her a WE NEED TO TALK IN PRIVATE look.

"Sure Gin, lets go to my room." She said quickly looking down.

"We'll be back in a sec boys," Ginny said laughing over her shoulder, the boys didn't even notice. They were too into talking about the Quidditch World Cup. She shook her head and followed Hermione to her room.

I know I keep saying that date is next chapter, date is next chapter.
