Molly Weasley's Matchmaking Service ~Chapter Twelve

Disclaimer: I don't own the world of Harry Potter.

Enjoy folks.

At precisely ten till six o'clock, the flames of the burrow fireplace turned green spitting out a beautiful young lady. Dusting off her muggle jeans and V-neck t shirt and fixing her long, straight hair she made sure her glasses were properly placed on her nose.

"Nina! It's so lovely to see you dear, it's simply been too long" exiting the kitchen at the sound of the floo Mrs. Weasley smiled at the old friend of Charlie's, who she had reached out to, for help with Charlie and Hermione. Grabbing the young witch up in a hug, the girl hugged Molly back fiercely.

"Hi Molly, thank you for having me, I've miss you all so much"

"Oh it's no problem at all dear. Come along Charlie's in the kitchen" Walking through the kitchen door Mrs. Weasley approached Charlie who had been sitting at the kitchen table looking over files and reports for the reserve.

"Well hit me over the head with a beater's bat and call me sane. Charlie Weasley doing paper work, I'd never even think it was possible" Charlie whipped around to the person whose voice he remembered so clearly.

"Nina!" spinning out of his chair he engulfed the young lady in his arms and hugged her tightly.

"It's been too long Weasley"

"What are you doing here? Did you move here from America?" laughing the blond shook her head no.

"I'm still living there, its home. I do love visiting England though. Except the ministry worker I had to deal with at the international portkey sight. Uh, he was such a git I shrunk his head and threatened to do the same to his prick if he wouldn't cooperate. My paperwork was in order and I made it very frank that I was not going to go on a date with him" huffing the American crossed her arms glaringly, picturing the man in her head.

"You always were a spit fire back in Hogwarts. One of the best beaters Hogwarts had seen in a long time" Laughing Charlie sat back down and gestured for Nina to do the same. "So what have you been doing? Last I heard you were doing awareness projects for homeless witches and wizards"

"Yes, well I've just recently opened a foundation for homeless teens to come to if they need a home for a night or a month, and even longer. We house children from thirteen to eighteen, and help find jobs for kids that are older and need financial foundation structure. I'm very proud, from what I've accomplished since Hogwarts. I have a couple of teen homes in various locations in both the magical and muggle communities, after the war the house's really started to fill." Nina pursed her lips and shook her head. "So where's the rest of the pack?" looking around Nina took in the empty kitchen except for the form of Mrs. Weasley who was working on biscuits for biscuits and gravy.

"Ginny and Harry are outside doing who knows what. Fred, George, and Luna are at the shop closing it before coming over. Bill and Fleur are coming from Shell cottage. Percy is at work so if he's coming to dinner I haven't a clue, Dad'll be home soon. Hermione is upstairs checking on Teddy, he was taking a nap." counting off his family with his fingers Charlie nodded a confirmation that he got everyone.

"Who are Harry, Luna, Hermione, and Teddy?" Nina looked confused and raised an eyebrow at Charlie inquiringly.

"Oh! I forgot you haven't been around in a while. Harry Potter is Ginny's husband and they have Teddy who is Harry's godson. Luna is George's wife and their newly wedded. And Hermione Granger is a longtime friend of Ron, Harry, and Ginny's. She's a very smart girl. She's written a few books too. She did a rendition of Hogwarts: A History. She's pretty too and talented, and bossy at times…"

"Charlie"

"Yeah?"

"You're babbling" Smirking Nina took in Charlie. He was blushing very slightly, bouncing his leg, and he had this quirky half smile expression on his face that Nina hadn't seen in a very long time.

"Oh, I think I hear the floo going off!" bustling out of the kitchen Mrs. Weasley ran through the door that separated that of the sitting room and the living room.

"You like her."

"What kind of question is that?"

"It wasn't a question Char" patting him on his head as if he were a child, Nina raised from her chair. "You fancy the girl Charlie, you better do something before someone else takes her from you and any chance that you may have had with her."

Meanwhile in the sitting room a broad shouldered wizard immersed from the green flames. His frame was tall and his hair red, and not long behind him was that of a tall woman, though not taller than her husband, that had short almost black hair with brilliant hazel eyes and overly large belly.

"RONALD WEASLEY HOW DARE YOU BRING THIS WOMAN INTO MY HOUSEHOLD!" Molly's voiced echoed through the house, a pin could be heard falling.

"Now, Mum. Let's not be rash!" holding his out Ron gestured for his mother to take pause.

"'Let's not be rash' he says. Ha, well maybe you won't be too rash next time you cheat on a girl that only dated you out of love for you family and their continued happiness, or maybe out of the respect you have for your family before you knocked up this...this...TROLLUP!" Molly Weasley was red faced. She and Arthur were the only ones beside Harry that knew the truth of Ron and Hermione's relationship. She was not even close to being finished with her lecture to Ron and his wife when the front door opened with a bang as Arthur hurriedly walked in at Molly's yelling, wand at the ready. Harry, Ginny, Percy, and Audrey, Percy's wife who was holding their eldest daughter to her chest, also raced in on Mr. Weasley's heels.

"WHAT IN THE BLAZES IS GOING ON IN HERE!?" Arthur's voice, like his wife's, was booming and left very little doubt he was not in command. The loud and booming voices of the Weasley household heads brought Charlie and Nina out from the kitchen along with Hermione from upstairs holding Teddy's hand angling him so he was shielded behind her, her wand like Arthur's was also drawn.

"Mum is going bonkers!" Ron exclaimed exasperatedly, his arms flailing.

"What is she doing here?" Arthur sounded confused and annoyed; a headache was starting to creep up on him.

"She's my wife! And she will enter my childhood home if I want her to"

"Not if I say otherwise!" Molly started wagging her finger at Ron, taking her Molly Weasley pose, all her children feared respectively.

The floo once again lit up green and four figures emerged from the fire, two men and one woman holding her young daughter's hand, all looking confused when there was little room to move since Ron and Jade had been hogging the rug that was placed in front of the fire.

"Dad what's going on?" Bill looked to his dad for help.

"Your brother and his wife have decided to stop by uninvited" Bill looked to the two figured that had blocked their entry.

"Now you little prick. What right do you have bringing her here!?" Bill's voice bounded of the walls, a growl punctuating the sentence, as he got up in Ron face. Ron was tall but Bill was still slightly taller if only by an inch or two.

"This is my home! I can't believe my own family picked her side! It's pathetic, she's pathetic. It's all her fault, I did nothing wrong!" A dry, humorless laugh followed Ron's exclaim making everyone look up to Hermione who still was holding Teddy's hand but her wand was put away. Walking down from the lowest landing to living room floor Hermione released Teddy and ushered him toward Ginny and Harry who scooped him up gladly.

"You didn't cheat on me countless times, won't marry me because I couldn't get pregnant, lie to your family, knock up a prostitute who only wants to suck every gallon out of your vault, marry said prostitute, and gallivant around as if you have never hurt any of your so called family. You didn't even tell your own mother you were getting married!" Hermione's voice was rough and her eyes watery, but she refused for any tears to fall.

"Hermione, now you're being unreasonable-"

"UNREASONABLE! Unreasonable, I've been more than reasonable with you Ronald. I've smiled in your presence though I want to rip off your head, defended you when everyone said it was your fault! Yes of course I am the unreasonable one, it's my entire fault!" Now Hermione was crying. Her wand was once again redrawn, and she was trembling.

"It is your entire fault, maybe if you weren't so boring he would have actually loved you, but you're just a silly little girl who doesn't matter. You're so disgusting that not even your own eggs want you to be their mother, you're nothing but a worthless mudblood." Laughing mockingly Jade glared at Hermione as she spit out her words, an ugly sneer stretched across her lips. Hermione crumbled; her knees hit the floor, her sobs wracking her whole body. Muscular, freckled arms wrapped around her, holding her to their firm chest. The body whispered soothing words, as it pulled her into its lap and rocked her back and forth. Hermione felt light kisses upon her forehead, and small pleas for her to be alright.

"Now you listen and you listen fucking well! You don't come in here, and say such things to people! I don't give two fucks who you're married to." Nina pulled her own wand out and pointed it at the still smirking bitch as she advanced. Ron defended his wife, and went to block her.

"Ronald fucking Weasley get out of my way. I changed your diapers when you were a toddler and I'll put you back in diapers if you make one more step to defend this pathetic monster, or dare talk back to me!" Nina roared similar to Bill, but without help of an inner wolf. She turned to the woman who had lost her smirk and looked slightly terrified.

"You listen you little bitch and listen real well! I've fought in wars, I've tortured and I've killed men twice the sorcerer as yourself and I've seen things that even your own nightmares have night terrors about! You try to talk to someone associated to the Weasley like that again I will personally end you. Do I make myself clear?" Nina ground out the last sentence in such fury her eyes could have caught fire. She had grabbed the girl by her fancy silk shirt and lifted her against the brick hearth as the younger girl nodded her head furiously. Nina's eyes glared daggers at her through her ray bans. "I said, Do I Make Myself CLEAR!"

"Yes!" squeaking out Jade, who was released to fall unceremoniously on her bum. Turning to a terror struck Ronald, Nina growled at the both of them. "Now get out! if I see either of you talk, look, blink, or even think of them in any shape or form I will hunt you both down and inflict such pain upon you even Voldemort would fear me!" Roaring Nina shoved the pair into the brick hearth not caring about what harm came to them. Grabbing a handful of floo powder Nina threw it into the fire yelling a location as the two were engulfed and zipped off.

Huffing and chest heaving Nina turned to look at the family who all looked back at her. She blushed. "Sorry" Looking down to her longtime friend and ex-boyfriend, Nina watch as he held the young brunette to himself whispering loving things in her ear that only the two of them would know. Glancing to Molly, Nina nodded to the couple on the floor and then upstairs. Molly seemed to understand and bent down near Charlie.

"Charlie-Dear why don't you take Hermione upstairs" Charlie looked up from Hermione's beautifully puffy face to his mother, his eyes were red as he too was crying, and it almost made Molly cry as well. Nodding, Charlie collected Hermione into his arms and took them both upstairs after looking to Nina and nodding, which she only smiled at and nodded for him to take Hermione and go upstairs.

"uh, Mum I think something's burning" Everyone jumped at Fred's voice as he spoke up, no one had even seen him, George, or Luna enter the house.

"My biscuits!" rushing past the heard of her family, Molly rushed through the door and into the kitchen. Everyone chuckled, lightening the atmosphere audibly.

"So I don't get to act the part of a cool curse breaker for Gringotts to make Charlie jealous" the brunette pouted at Bill who only laughed in return.

"Yeah, sorry Mate, next time. You'll just have to be the ordinary, boring curse breaker that you are now"

"Why would you be acting?" Ginny looked increasingly at Bill's friend while she walked excitedly towards Nina.

"Mum wanted to make Charlie and Hermione jealous so they'd express their feeling toward one another more forthcoming." George explained as he held Luna's hand in his, ushering her to sit on his lap as he sat on the couch, next to Harry and Ted.

"That's why I'm here too" Nina spoke up over Ginny's shoulder, as the female Weasley hugged her.

"Beel, who is she?" Fleur let Victoria's hand go so she could go sit next to Teddy.

"This here, spitfire is Nina Gibbs, She's an American muggle born that attended Hogwarts with Charlie and I. She and Charlie also dated most of their Hogwarts experience. They were inseparable back in the day." Smiling Bill grabbed Nina in a hug as well. "And this, dear family and friend is Cooper Salt a coworker of mine" slapping said man on the back Cooper waved to the family.

"'Ello, everyone" everyone one waved back, smiled, or replied back with their own greeting to the handsome man.

Poking her head back into the sitting room Molly announced that dinner was fixed and that it was time to eat.

Cooper turned when he felt a light tap on his shoulder, he turned to face the blond girl with glasses.

"You wanna grab a nightcap with me. Give the Weasley's some family time?" Cooper smiled devilishly at her.

"Certainly."

"give me one minute" walking into the kitchen Nina approached the matriarchs of the Weasley family. "Molly, Arthur, thank you so much for having me over, but Cooper and I are gonna head out. We'll see each other soon, hopefully."

"Not a problem at all dear, thank you for your help. Be safe" Hugging, Molly and Arthur, Nina did her round around the table saying goodbye to everyone followed by Cooper.

"Hey Nina!"

"Yes William?"

"Keep 'im in line tonight will ya!?" Bill got a smirk in reply.

"No promises. And besides who'll keep me in line" with a wink and one final wave to Molly, Nina and Cooper disappeared out the kitchen door to see themselves out.

Okay, so one more chapter to Go! I'm really excited and am about to write it. I have the perfect ending in my head right now! Yay! I might do a double update, pending.

Hope everyone enjoyed.
