Chapter 7 : Never Felt This Way
Sunlight streamed through the window falling on two sleeping forms cuddled together. As the light spread through out the room one of the figures stirred and turned towards the other.
He watched her sleep. Her brown curls hanging over her face. he gently moved a curl that was hanging over her eye and gazed at his girlfriends beautiful face .
"Morning." She said opening her eyes starring back at him , stretching then letting out a yawn.
" Morning." He said back giving her a quick kiss on the lips.
" What time is it?" She asked rubbing her eyes and looking around the room.
"It's eight, you can go to back to sleep." George said looking at the clock.
" Aren't we supposed to have brunch with Harry ,Susie ,Ron and Lavender today?"
Hermione said sitting up and stretching out her arms
"Yeah ,but ,we could always skip it,stay in and have breakfast in bed "George said smirking at her
" As great as that sounds we can't , I promised Lav I'd help her with a few things for the wedding,then I have to pick up my shoes "
Hermione said climbing out of the bed. George however looked at her mischievously then grabbed her arm and pulled her back down on the bed in one swoop, placing her under him.
"George..." She said faking annoyance.
" Couldn't Ginny help her, she's a bridesmaid too. " George said then proceeded to kiss her..
"No ,shes still at Hogwarts ,she doesn't leave till Saturday,plus I'm the maid of honor." Hermione said relunctantly breaking the kiss.
" All right ,you can go I'll stay here and sleep some more." George said rolling over and snuggling under the covers.
"Oh no you don't , your supposed to help Ron pick a suit, so get up." She said sternly.
" Yes sir!" George said playfully saluting her .
She responded by gently slapping his hand and walking out of the room and into the bathroom.
"Mi, don't leave me ,I'll be good I promise" George said being silly.
Hermione came back into the room and rolled her eyes at her boyfriend . She walked over to him and kissed him quickly on the lips .
" I'm going home I'll meet you at the restaurant later " She said and with a pop she was gone .
He headed back to his bed and slept for ten more minutes before getting up and showering, before heading to meet Ron at the tuxedo shop.
Hermione apparated to her dorm to find her roommate awake ,which was unusual since Annie was a late sleeper. She was magically packing clothes into two suitcases.
" Your packing already I thought you weren't leaving for the burrow until Thursday?"
Hermione said walking over to her roommate.
Everyone would be staying at the magically enhanced burrow for Christmas and also for the new years wedding ,but she thought her roommate wasn't leaving for a few days.
" I am, but, I wanted to visit my mom in the states, she can't make it to the wedding so I wanted to spend some time with her since I won't be home for Christmas " she explained to Hermione as she walked into the bathroom to retrieve some toiletries .
"So what did you and Alex do last night?" Annie asked from the bathroom.
" We went to club Llanos." Hermione said.
"Really,I've been meaning to check it out with Jeremy .' Annie said walking back into the room.
" They have really good music. "Hermione said going to her closet and grabbing a towel.
" I'm gonna shower than I've gotta meet Lav at the bridal shop then later the gang for brunch ,so I'll see you next week, say hi to your mum for me"
"Okay , I will, see ya!" Annie said.
Hermione closed the bathroom door while Annie put one last article of clothing into her suitcase before apparating to the airport where she would fly to sunny California.
Hermione apparated in an alley behind Nora's lunch and brunch diner. She walked inside the restaurant and looked around till she found the table where Harry,Susie,Ron ,Lav and George were sitting. She waved and walked over sitting down next to George.
"Hey guys ,what did I miss?" She said as soon as she sat down.
" We were just talking about the reception, Lav and I can't decide between one or two appetizers I said I didn't mind but ,lavender does, what do you think would be better ?"
Ron explained and asked .
"Well uh , I guess it would depend on how many people are coming and how big the main course is" Hermione said thinking about it.
"Right, I'll go over the guest list then talk to Mrs.Weasley" Lavender said.
They continued talking about the wedding while they ordered their food to then,Susie, Lavender and Hermione excused themselves to go "powder their noses "which allowed the girls to be able to chat about the boys, and the boys to catch up on each other's relationships as well.
Ladies Room
"Thanks again , for helping me out with the dresses earlier Hermione" Lavender said.
"No, problem, so hows everything else going?" Hermione asked washing her hands.
"Good,I'm glad Mrs. Weasley's helping , otherwise I wouldn't know what I was doing" Lavender said fixing her hair.
"I'm guessing Ron's not that big of a help" Susie said smiling.
"Nope, he tries to help,but I can tell hes bored with all the little details"Lavender said.
"My brother was the same way when he got married, it's a guy thing, has he said he'd rather marry you now without all the planning, yet" Susie asked.
"He did actually , the other day when we were picking colors for the decorations" Lavender said laughing.
"Boys." They all said at the same time laughing.
"So how are things with your guys?"Lavender asked.
"Things with Harry are great , I guess you could say we're still in the honeymoon stage." Susie said.
"Enjoy that while it last, before you know it , the little things he does will start to bother you, at first anyways, then you'll learn to love him more despite of those little things" Lavender said smiling dreamingly as she thought about her fiancée.
"What about you , how are things with George?" Lavender asked Hermione.
"Great , I guess you could say we're in the honeymoon stage too,when you first meet him, he just seems like a jokester, but when I met him as Alex I saw a side of George that I'd never noticed before, hes not just funny, hes sweet charming and smart too, I've never felt this way about anyone" Hermione said having the same dreamy look Lavender had , had when she'd talked about Ron.
"Sound like things are getting pretty serious " Lavender said.
"I guess you could say that " Hermione said smiling.
Meanwhile Back at the table
"So, little bro , ready to tie the knot?" George asked grinning at his younger brother.
"As ready as I can be , the wedding is, in two weeks." Ron said.
"And your not nervous or panicky yet?" Harry asked jokingly.
"Nope, why would I be , I love Lav and I'm ready to marry her. " Ron said.
"So you don't have even a little bit of cold feet?" George asked playing devils advocate.
N-no..so how are things with Susie , Harry?" Ron asked changing the subject.
"Great , we've got a lot in common, she's really fun and sweet" Harry said.
"Thats good, and you George, how are things with Mi?" Ron asked .
" I was wondering when you'd ask about me and her. " George said smiling.
They hadn't had much time to talk after the joint birthday party , where George had announced that him and Hermione had been dating and were a couple.
He figured as Hermione's two best friends, and ex-boyfriend in Harry's case, that they'd probably want to have a big brother type talk with him about their 'sister', Hermione.
"Well..." Ron said happy to turn the tables on his older brother.
"Things are great , she's really amazing, brilliant dancer, sweet, funny" George said.
"Dancing, funny?" Harry and Ron both said looking at each other shocked.
"Yeah, you and Hermione never went dancing when you were together?" George asked.
" No, I didn't really dance..I didn't think she did either" Harry said a hint of jealousy, unnoticed by George and Ron, in his voice.
"I'm glad things are going good with you two,I haven't seen her this happy in a long time, right Harry?" Ron.
"Yeah, I've never seen her smile so much" Harry said trying to hide his jealousy.
" Well, I plan to make her smile for a long time" George said.
"Maybe you and her will be next to get married" Ron said raising an eyebrow at George.
Before George could respond to that ,the girls reappeared as well as their food.
They ate their food and causally talked about the upcoming holiday and wedding, no one noticing the strange, quiet ,glum mood Harry had slipped into.
Later that night
Hermione and George lay cuddled on his bed watching the DVD of Spiderman Three,she had gotten George into Muggle movies, and the marvel superhero ones were his favorite.
George took his eyes off the screen and stared at the beautiful women in his arms, which got him thinking back to earlier that morning waking up with her in his arms, which caused him to suddenly speak.
"Move in with me!" George suddenly said.
"What, did you say?" Hermione said pausing the movie and turning to face George.
"I've loved waking up with you every morning this week , and I don't want that to end when you go back to school, so I'm asking you to move in with me. " George said, then waited for her answer.
She seemed to think for a moment , then she spoke one word.
"Okay." She said smiling.
"Really?" George said surprised at her quick answer.
"Yeah, I love waking up with you too." Hermione said caressing his face with her hand.
"You do?" George said moving his face closer to hers.
"Yeah I do." Hermione said closing the gap between him and her by kissing his lips.
