Chapter Seven

George woke up and immeadilty checked if Hermione was in her room. She wasn't. He didn't know what had happened between the wedding and now. Something just went wrong. He walked into the living room and saw a small, brown eyed, bushy haired witch sleeping on his couch. His face lit up when he saw her turn over onto her stomach. She always did that when she was about to wake up.

George went over and sat on the coffee table near the couch and waited for her to open her eyes. Hermione's eyes began to pop open.

"Hey Hermione." George greeted. She hadn't completely woken up aqnd was shocked by George. Her arm flew upwards hitting George in the face. "Umm, ow."

When Hermione realized where she was she freaked out. "Oh my god. George, i'm so sorry." She crawled off of the couch and over to him. " Are you okay?" She asked placing on hand on his cheek.

"I'll be fine." He reasured her. He removed his hand from his eye and it reveiled that Hermione threw good puches. His eye was black and puffy.

"Oh god, i'll be right back." Hermione ran into the kitchen and soon came back with a rag filled with ice. "Here." She layed the ice over his eye and held it there.

They both sat there on the floor for a few awkward minutes. "Hermione," George broke the silence. "I'm sorry about yesterday."

Hermione shook her head. "Don't be. I just needed to think. That's why I left. I had to, admit things to myself."

George smirked. "Things like?"

Hermione didn't say anthing, she just kissed him. She dropped the icey rag and it clashed onto the floor. He wrapped his hands around her waist and pulled her on top of him. They fell back onto the floor. Hermione's hands slythered into his hair. They heard a knock on the door and immeaditly looked up at the door. They looked back at one another and rolled over. George helpped Hermione off of the floor and they strode over to the door.

Hermione opened it to see Ginny, Ron, and Harry. Their faces wen't from smiling to confused the second they saw them.

"What in the world have you two been doing?" Ginny asked. Hermione walked over to the mirror and saw her lipstick smeared onto her cheeks and her hair more frizzy than usual.

"Oh, umm, just talking." Hermione lied. Ginny knew her friend all to well to believe that.

"Well then, we're sorry we interupted the conversation. I'm sure it was very trilling." She joked. Hermione hit her in the arm playfully and took the bowl of food in her hands and set it on the table.

Harry winked at George as he walked in. Ron just looked disgusted. Geirge quickly looked in the mirror and saw that he was wearing Hermione's lip gloss and his hair was worse than hers. He tried to fix it then followed the rest of the kids into the kitchen.

"Why the pleasnt surprise?" George asked.

Ginny licked the icing she had stolen off of their cupcakes and smiled. "Just dropping in. Wouldn't want any un-needed pregancies." She looked at Hermione.

Hermione's mouth dropped. "Excuse me. I have never even tried to get in his pants."

George and Harry laughed at this. "Please, you try everynight." George joked. She punched him in the arm as he walked towards the sink. "Woah, eh, haven't you punched me enough today?"

She rolled her eyes and sat down at the table. "But really. Why are you here? Hermione asked.

Ginny grimaced. "Mom wanted us to come here and check up on you."

Hermione and George exchanged confused looks. "Check up on us." Hermione questioned.

Ginny looked at Harry with longing in her eyes. Harry stepped over and placed a hand on her hip. "She wanted us to make sure you were- you know- alive."

Hermione and George's mouths dropped. "Why does everyone think we're suicidal?"

"We didn't want to do it, but she insisted." Ron defended.

Hermione just left the room and went into her room. She jumped on her bed and screamed into her pillow. then she got up and stomped back into the kitchen with crossed arms. "We don't need watching."

"Yeah, we're perfectly fine here on our own." George said, wrapping on arm around Hermione's waist.

Ginny, Harry, and Ron all looked at each other and swiftly left the flat. Hermione and George exhaled deeply and smiled at each other.

After a few moments of awkward silence Hermione went up in he tip toes and kissed him. "I've fallen for you too." She said placing her forehead against his.

He smirked and grabbed her hand. They stood there in the kitchen holding hands and kissing every now and then.
