Chapter 12: Birthday wishes and meals
The sheets felt silken on her soft skin as Hermione stirred from her nights sleep. As she woke her body became aware of the warm body next to her, his arm draped around her pulling her small frame against his chest.
"Good morning Love" Bill purred in her ear his hand stroking the inside of her upper thigh. "How is the birthday girl this morning?" He asked his hand making maddening slow movements up her leg.
"Bill" She panted as his fingers ghosted over where she needed him most. His rough laugh sounded in her ear as she was pulled flat against his chest, his morning erection prodding her hip.
"'Mi all you have to do is ask" He whispered in her ear his fingers making the same movements as before but slower. With out asking Hermione gripped Bill's hand and moved his fingers to her core, hoping he would get the message. "You naughty witch" Bill growled, his fingers moving inside her.
"Harder" Hermione gasped as he added a third finger. His free hand lifted her leg over his hip effectively bring her body closer to his. Bill worked his fingers; now dripping with her essence in time with his tongue which was sucking and licking at her long supple neck. Hermione found herself coming quicker then normal as Bill was whispering all the things he wanted to do to her body, her body tingled as his warm breath was on her neck and ear.
They stayed in the warm bed wrapped in each others arms, it was only when they had to leave did them drag themselves out of the bed and into the bathroom for their morning shower, it took longer then normal as Bill jumped in with her and rubbed his hands up and down her body, it only ended when they had fast passionate sex against the shower. Hermione came out the shower felling somewhat dirtier then before she got in.
While she dried and dressed Bill wrapped in only a towel make breakfast. Hermione smiled to herself when she saw him, his hair was still wet but up in a ponytail while dripping water down his muscled back. The towel only just covered his lower half. As he had not dried himself off, droplets of water ran down his chest and abs, it took all of Hermione's strength not to lick every single one off his body. The only words that came to mind was 'sexy, drop dead sexy, I want sexy' Bill smirked as if he could read her mind while finishing up the eggs as Hermione sat down at the table watching her god intently.
"Bill?" He walked over placing a plate off food in front of her.
"What is it?" He asked setting his own down.
"If I said my birthday wish was for you to stay like that all day" She said looking him up and down one more time before he sat down "What would you say?"
"Well" He took a mouthful of food while he thought, his fork hanging in the air. "I would say I would love to but as you are going out and the girls will be coming over soon" He laughed deeply. "I don't think the girls would like to see me like this partially my sister" He noted taking another mouthful. "And unlike some people" He said pointing his fork in Hermiones direction. "I have to work" Hermione spent the rest to the meal trying to persuade Bill about the benefits of staying in only a towel.
When Hermione tried to help clear up the mess Bill had made he chased her around the kitchen the room filled with carefree laughter, what they did not notice was the girls had arrived early. Tonks smiled smugly while Ginny just looked horrified at seeing the state her brother was in, Luna giggled in a dreamy way at watching the two free sprits running around. Angelina and Katie shared a look before watching the two running around the room. They were picking up Hermione for a day of pampering and a make over before the whole Weasley and Lupin clan were meeting for a meal at The Green Dragon.
"Bill" Hermione squealed when he had her cornered. He pretended to pounce on her like his pray and pined her against the wall.
"Got you" He said playfully his soft lips kissing along her collarbone as she giggled. Ginny coughed shyly hoping to get their attention, her face red from blushing.
"That won't work" Tonks pointed out stepping forward. "This is how you do it" With out hesitation Tonks walked right behind the kissing couple, she moved so her head was right by the towelled Bills and tapped him on the shoulder at the same time asking "How did that towel stay on while you ran around?"
"Bloody hell" Bill shouted while jumping ten feet in the air. He stumbled from Hermione and fell onto his back behind the sofa, out of view from his sister, Luna and his twin brothers' fiancés. Hermione looked shocked as Bill's towel opened showing Tonks everything. He scrambled for the towel hastily retying it before standing up. Tonks looked at Bill rather embarrassed.
"I'm so sorry, that was my entire fault I should not have scared you like that" Bill just shrugged it off.
"It's ok. Nothing you haven't seen before" He teased making his way to the bedroom to find clothes.
"Don't want to know" Ginny said coving her ears with her hands, shacking her head. Hermione looked at Tonks then to the door Bill disappeared behind then back to Tonks, her eyebrow raised.
"Long story short. When I was with Charlie we were in the dormitory and Bill joined us, one thing lead to another and we had a threesome, that's all" Tonks had her hands raised in front of her as if defending herself. Hoping Hermione was not the jealous type
"Come on lets go" Hermione offered, giving all of them a way out before Ginny was mentally scared for life, Tonks gave her a grateful look as the flooed out the flat.
The day was just want Hermione needed, she had been tense from work; they had been demanding she put in more hours and work harder, she had enough and was currently looking for a new job. They registered at the reception and decided to get the waxing out the way. One hour latter the four of them waddled into the mud room after having full leg, underarm, bikini, lip and eyebrow waxes; they laughed it off when Tonks made a comment, they all looked like they were heavily pregnant when they waddled but without the weight. This was when they meet up with Molly and they all had full body mud wraps lined up in a horseshoe shape. They gossiped away while they lay there mud coving them from head to toe, the atmosphere was light and fun until someone unwanted turned up.
"Well, well, well. Look who it is" Fleur said her sliver blonde hair flowing behind her. "No matter how hard you try you will never be a beautiful as me" She said moving closer to the group.
"Ha" Ginny bitterly said from Hermione's right, glaring at the blonde. "'Mione is ten times more beautiful then you and she has some depth to her not like you who is more shallow then a puddle on the side of the road"
"Sticks and stones redhead" Fleur commented not even looking Ginny's way. "I heard you were hear, thought I might come and visit and help give you a pamper"
"Why it's good to see you Fleur you have put on the weight nicely, hope your eating healthy for the baby and thanks for the offer but no thanks I'm fine" Everyone was stuck to watch helplessly - the staff had been dismissed - while Fleur moved behind Hermione, as she moved her arm the light glinted off with a pair of scissors in her hand with hate and distaste in her face. Hermione felt a sharp tug as Fleur gripped her hair sharply and hacked away letting the loose hair fall to the floor.
"WHAT THE HELL HAVE YOU DONE" Tonks shouted from the bed on Hermione's left trying to get loose from the wrap she was in along with Katie and Angelina.
"Made her hair better" She stated an evil grin on her face when the staff ran into the room at the shouting.
"I hope the Blue Skinned Bears of Marten haunt your house" Luna said plainly, anger on every word.
"That was for Victor bitch" Fleur stated looking Hermione in the eyes. Hermione just smiled.
"You only did that because you want to be back with Bill as Victor was not what he promised. You are a shallow spiteful bitch who is stuck as you have been knocked up by someone who can't walk straight or even say your name right. How he knows one end of the broom from the other I don't know" Before Fleur could draw back her hand she was dragged kicking and screaming from the room.
"I will get you Hermione Granger. I promise you that" Victor must have been there as they could here him calling for his 'Leur.
"I'm so sorry dear" The therapist said her hands' fluttering over Hermione's roughly cut hair.
"Don't worry about it" Hermione said trying to keep her anger down. "It was getting cut anyway" It was true that Hermione was getting a hair cut and it bothered her a little but that was not what bothered her the most, it was that Fleur had tried to ruin her birthday. You could have heard a pin drop when they were unwrapped and cleaned off all the mud.
"This way ladies" They smiled at the therapist but that did not last long; they were lead to the sauna and steam room. Every few minutes they swapped rooms and then took a quick swim in the pool before repeating the process. The silence was pounding in their eardrums. Tonks was the one to break the silence.
"What a come back 'Mione. The broom part was funny" Ginny could not help but crack a smile.
"That was funny" She giggled. "But the best bit was the look on her face when Luna said about the Blue Skinned Bears of where?" Ginny half asked at the end.
"Blue Skinned Bears of Marten. They can become rather nasty when you spitefully hurt someone; I would love to see how Fleur handles them" An evil glint passed her normally dreamy eyes before disappearing just as quick.
"I'm just glad that she is out of our lives. How my poor boy coped with her I don't know" Molly wistfully said with a sad tone.
"Well he now has someone so much better and to top it all off we all like her" Katie giggled sending Hermione a quick glance with Angelina nodding in agreement.
"What do you mean?" Molly asked. Only a handful of people knew about Hermione and Bill. Remus, Tonks and Charlie had been sworn to not say a word but Luna, Katie and Angelina Ginny had found out that morning. Hermione had forgotten to take them to one side, to late now.
"Well...." Hermione stammered her face blushing.
"You must know this girl as you two live together. Tell me about her" Molly asked looking kindly at the stammering girl. "What does she look like? What job does she have?" Hermione tried to get a word in but Molly would not stop asking questions. "Where does she live? What does she like to eat? What dress size is she?"
"IT'S ME" Hermione finally got in, having to shout. Molly looked taken back, shock evident in her eyes. Her mouth opened and closed a few times before she got the right words together.
"How long has this been going on?" She asked concerned "Was it when he moved in?"
"As you know Bill moved in on the night of a full moon and I locked him in his room so he would be safe and I would not be on my own" Hermione began.
"Yes I know about that. I must admit I was worried about that but in the morning you were both ok" Molly interrupted.
"Yes but what you did not know was I rushed in just before sunrise" Everyone gasped but Tonks, she knew the story already. "I got pined to the floor and we kissed, just as it got deeper Bill threw himself off me and left the room" The memory was vivid in her mind, the sunlight filtering though the blinds, the carpet under her as she panted and Bills wanted weight on top of her body. "We had an unspoken agreement that we would not say a word about that morning and we soon became good friends" A found smile growing on her face. "I won't give you the details but the next full moon something happened and we have been together ever since" Molly had tears in her eyes by the end, she wiped them away and then changed the subject. This unnerved Hermione a little bit but soon wiped it from her mind and joined in with conversation.
The seven of them did not stop laughing, giggling and talking when they had lunch and the afternoon of massages, manicure, pedicures and facials; their therapists had to tell them off as they moved too much. Ginny's nails smudged and had to be redone, Tonks fell off the massage bed pulling all the covers with her, Luna's mask ended up in her mouth and cracked when it stated to set, Tonks kept falling over a chairs as she moved stations. The room was set up with seven therapists each with their own table or bed each doing a different thing. The therapists and them were amassed they made it out in one piece. Once they were finished with the pampering it was time for the make over. Each of them had a hair stylist and make up artist to finish them off. Hermione's hacked hair was now down to her shoulders.
"Oh dear me" Her hair stylist said looking at the mess that was once her hair. "Let me guess" He stood with one hand on his hip with his weight on his right leg and his other hand on his chin in thought. "You had a fight with a pair of children's scissors and lost" He said with a small smile on is face, he had to be gay.
"Something like that. Can you fix it?" She asked playing with a stay stand of hair.
"Hunni, when I'm finished you will not look like you" He said picking up a comb. The laughing did not stop as Tonks was messing around with her hair, every time her stylist looked away to pick something up or put something down she changed her hair. This happened about ten times before she worked the joke out.
Once they were finished they had just enough time to get dressed and floo to the restaurant. Bills mouth hung open when he saw Hermione walk into the room, she had her hair highlighted with natural colours and straightened with the layers her stylist put in framing her face. The make up was light but once again natural, but it showed off her eyes giving them a sparkle to them, her lips were a light peach and it plumped her lips up giving her a slight pout. The dress she wore was a light brown and clung to her figure like she was sown in, the neck line plunged down to show her cleavage, the dress flowed down her body and to the top of her legs just ending above her knees and her legs were long and graceful with a pair of high heels on her feet.
She just seamed to glow with pride and self confidence; this was just what Hermione needed. It took all Bill had not to sweep her into his arms and run away with her, he wanted to worship the goddess in front of him. His mind worked in over drive as his eyes worked over her, he wanted to rip off her dress and show her just how much he loved her. Bill froze for a spilt second 'Where did that come from' he thought. It was too early for him to love, wasn't it? Hermione was suddenly blocked from his view as his mother came running towards him, her arms wrapping around him.
"I happy for you love" She said tears running down her face for the second time. Bill tried to push her off him but his brothers were now watching. "I'm glad you have found someone" By this time the women had now joined the men and were also watching the scene, making note of what he did next. He looked to his dad for help but he just laughed not moving from his spot.
"So who is this girl then Billy boy?" Fred teased.
"Yer we want to meet her" George joined in.
"I wonder" Fred thought out loud. "What girl has sparked his interest?" Bill could not help but let a goofy smile show on his face.
"And makes him look like a love sick puppy" George noted pointing in his direction. Tonks and Ginny finally got Molly off Bill, leading her off to the ladies to fix her make up. In a show of confidence Hermione walked to Bill and pulled him into kiss. Her arms wrapped around his neck keeping him close while Bills rested on her waist pulling her body closer to his. His brothers watched on shocked while Bill deepened the kiss.
"I am" Hermione said a little breathless when they pulled away for air not looking away from Bill.
"Well who would have guessed" Ron said while the twins scratched their heads at the same time in puzzlement.
Once Molly had retuned with Tonks and Molly they sat down at the table to eat. Hermione was sitting next to Bill and she rubbed her leg up his all though the meal, stroking one of her hands on his leg getting higher each time. With lighting fast movements Bill gripped Hermione's leg and draped it over his lap stocking the inside of her calf, tickling the back of her knee making her giggle. The night passed slower then Hermione wanted but she enjoyed herself. Once they bid their farewells Bill rushed them back to the flat, taking his chance to ravish her body all night without anything interrupting.
"I love you" Bill whispered into Hermione's ear once he thought she was asleep, golden light from the rising sun shining though the window the sky covered in pink and orange. Tonight had shown him how he truly felt, but he was not sure how Hermione herself felt. Hermione just smiled thinking this was the best birthday she ever had.
