Chapter Eighteen - Dating 101

"I wasn't aware that we have been dating for to months."

"You said it yourself 'we go out all the time', so today was a mere formality."

"I should be angry at you, but your cute looks don't let me."

"Cute? I'm think more of manly, handsome."

They were walking with no destination in mind. Hand in hand, George felt happy. Happy like when you are exactly where you wanted to be. Happy as maybe, just maybe, he could conjure his patronus again some day. He will always miss Fred, but his brother would want him to create new happy memories and that's what he is doing.

Reflecting now, he realizes that he liked her from the very beginning, probably from that first night they had ramen together. From there, things only escalated, but her presence was so constant that he never considered actually asking her out. It was so natural between them. They see each other every day. They go out several times a week. They do groceries together. She makes his food. He lost the count of sleep overs he had at her place. If there wasn't a wall, one could easily say they lived together. What would be different now? Some snog and other things, but it was a plus. A plus he very much appreciated.

"What are your plans, George?"

"Besides kissing the hell out of you, none."

"You ask me out without an idea of what to do or where to go?"

'I have lots of ideas, but not a single of them involved be walking outside wearing anything else but our birthday suits.' that's what he wanted to say, but he knew it was too soon. Instead, he said "You are just too beautiful that I feared someone else would steal you away while I waited for the right opportunity."

She blushed and gave him a soft smile. "We have food and drinks at home. Why don't we do what we do every night?"

"Try and take over the world?"

She laughed so hard that her eyes watered. "You are learning, my handsome ginger."

"Snog and movies, then?"

"We never kissed before."

"I plan to rectify this and make up for all the time we wasted ."
