A/N: Sorry for the last chapter's length. I'm not that good at writing long chapters actually. This is a bit longer though. Hope you enjoy it. :) xxx


Chapter 12 – He won't go

I won't go
I can't do it on my own
If this ain't love, then what is?
I'm willing to take the risk

So petrified, I'm so scared to step into this ride
What if I lose my heart and fail declined?
I won't forgive me if I give up trying

After the cozy breakfast both Fred and George had been away from work for too long, they both had to go back to their shop. George had come over early to catch Fred. I gave Fred a quick kiss before they went and I got a smirk from George. I had always loved how their brains worked together. After they had left I helped Mrs. Weasley in the kitchen for a while. It was nice just doing something with your hands and not thinking about anything. I liked that Mrs. Weasley didn't use magic all the time. Even if magic made things easier it was relaxing just doing things. I hadn't really done the dishes for God knows how long. It was nice though and I felt that I really needed to do something as a thank you for them letting me stay here.

"Hermione I just want you to know that I am really glad you scared that girl out from our lives. She was not good for us."

"I didn-"

"Well whatever you or anyone else did; she is gone! And that is worth celebrating!" She gave me a big smile and started to sing along to the muggle radio Mr. Weasley had given her. I smiled to myself; I didn't know if she knew about me and Fred but if she was happy I had reason to be happy as well.

"May I ask something, Mrs. Weasley?"
"Anything my child!"

"What would you think about me getting together with Fred again?"

"Are you?"

"Just if…"

"You know I always have seen you as my own child, and you two make a lovely couple. But, my child, that is not something for me to decide. You are welcome under my roof any time. It does not matter if you are dating anyone from my family or not."

"Thank you Mrs. Weasley."

"You know that you can call me Molly, dear."

"I know Mrs. Weasley!" I said and smiled. I continued to help her with the dishes and sang along to the radio as well. We made a lovely duet.

I was sitting on the swing again, but this time reading and not swinging. I was disrupted from a crack and I saw Ginny walking towards me; looking angry.

"What's wrong Ginny?"

"You can't be serious."

"What?" I was confused. Had I done something wrong?

"Did you have to sleep with my brother? Wasn't a kiss enough or something? A snogging session?"

"How do yo- Wait… What's wrong with that? It's not like we haven't done it before."

"But it is sex!" she hissed.

"So?"

"Sex isn't something you just do for fun, Hermione. You if anyone should know that!"

"Well, what if it wasn't just for fun?"

"Well was it?"

"I don't know." I admitted and she sighed out loud. "I don't think so anyway. It seemed like more."

"For you maybe! But he just got dumped; do you really think he would just take you back without any consideration?"

"Why not?"

"It's my brother!"

"I love your brother."

"Why are you so bloody stubborn, Hermione? Just don't do anything else. You can stay at our place tonight. Maybe baby sit Teddy with us?" I thought about it for a second. I hadn't actually seen their place yet.

"Alright, I'll do it. But I have to pack and leave a note for Fred."

"Really? Leave a note?"

"I don't want him to think I've run off again – do I?" She nodded and followed me to the house again. I didn't need a lot of things with me when it only was one night so I packed light. I left a note on his pillow and went downstairs again. I could've easily owled him but for some reason it felt a bit weird. I didn't want him to know where I was every second so this felt like the better option. When I arrived downstairs I saw Ginny picking a letter from an owl and reading it. I waited for her to finish and when she did; she lit up in a bright smile.

"You, I and Harry are going to London tonight."

"O- O- Okay?"

"We're going out dancing!" she still smiled broadly. "Harry just owled me saying Androdema wanted Teddy for tonight – so he suggested dancing!"

"Harry? Did harry suggest dancing?" I was skeptic.
"No… Not really. He suggested London and I made it in to dancing!"

"Yeah, that's more likely." I laughed and smiled back at Ginny. Dancing was fun but I hadn't been dancing for such a long time.

"Why are you still standing here? Up again and pick the sexiest dress you've got!"

"Sexiest? Why?"

"I want you to be the center of attention tonight!"

~WWW~

We arrived at Ginny's place with a crack. I looked around and saw the clean apartment. It looked absolutely lovely. I complemented every room she showed me and then I met Teddy. He squealed and laughed "Heymoyney" while his hair changed in to my colour. I gave him a hug and played with him for a while. He was the most adorable kid, and so social. He loved new people. Ginny brought me tea and then shared her plans for tonight.

"Harry is bringing Teddy to his grandmother in two hours, we eat a nice healthy dinner and then make ourselves ready for tonight? Deal?"

"Sounds like a plan!" I said and drank my tea. I was getting nervous, and I didn't even know why! Ginny and I talked for a while; mostly about anything but Fred. She avoided the subject.

"Don't you miss Hogwarts?"

"I did at first. I miss that we always had things to do. I haven't worked for so long so my spare time sucks. Why aren't you at work by the way?"

"Wow you're off. It's holiday! George and Fred are only working because they own the shop. Their employees need some time off as well."

"Oh…"

"Are you going to search for a job?"

"Yeah, I guess I am. I can't be staying at the Burrow forever. Ron and I have to go out and just search! I am thinking about applying for a magazine. Maybe where I can write about my experiences or something. I have to do something with the years I've wasted."

"That sounds terrific. You're great at keeping the deadlines as well." Ginny smiled; I knew she wanted me to be happy. We talked until it was time to make dinner.

~WWW~

After the dinner Ginny and I made us ready in their bedroom. We parked Harry in the living room; he was no help.

"You know… I think Harry thinks about getting a baby."

"You have a baby."

"Yeah, but another one. That's ours."

"Really? Are you up for it?"

"I'm feeling a bit young yet. Well, I know that I can be a mom so it's not that. It's just Teddy isn't a full-time-job. We don't have him all the time so we can do things like this. But if we had a baby; we can't."

"You know I'll baby sit any day." She smiled at me and we continued to put our make-up on. She had talent for it so I let her do mine.

"You should work as a make-up artist."

"And what's that?"

"It's a profession where you makeup models and such."

"Sounds cool…" Then we were ready and we got wolf whistles from Harry. I smiled and it actually felt cool to go out.

~WWW~

We had chosen a quite big club where the music was loud. Harry was bit skeptic but had agreed to do it. After a couple of beers Ginny and I made it out to the dance floor. We danced together and it felt so great! We danced to the music and after a while two guys joined us. Ginny quickly left me to go back to Harry who was sitting at the bar but I wanted to dance. I danced with the guy for a while and it was a lot of fun. After a couple of songs I broke free and got back to where Ginny and Harry was sitting.

"This is so much fun! Thank you Ginny for getting this idea!"
"You seemed to have a lot of fun" Harry stated. I stared at him but smirked.

"Oh please, that guy? Nah, he's not in my IQ-zone." I joked and punched Harry lightly on the arm. "Come on!" I dragged them both out from their chairs and up on the dance floor. My head was spinning but I had so much fun. This night was a night to remember.
