Gone and Coming Back

Chapter 15

"How are you feeling tonight?" George suddenly asked Hermione as he sat down on the couch next to her. All the family had left a while earlier and George reluctantly decided that he had to get the proposal over with or he would die of anticipation.

"I'm feeling just fine," Hermione said as she looked up from the book she was reading, "don't worry." She continued and gave him a small smile.

"You always say that. You tell me not to worry and I try not to. I know that your fine but I hate knowing that your sick and there is nothing I can do." George said. Hermione put her book down and gave him a look. "Yes I know it's a disease and you've lived with it for practically your whole life but I just want to make sure that your okay and taking care of yourself." He looked down at the carpet knowing that he was on the right track and had to continue. "I care about you."

"I know you do." Hermione said and took his hand in her own, fully forgetting about the book she was reading as she carelessly tossed it to the side. "But George, my heart is fine, my kidneys are fine, my eyesight is fine, and my nerves are fine. I'm fine! I'm sorry if I snap at you sometimes when you ask me how I am. I'm working on it. I'm just not used to anybody besides my family being concerned about my health."

"I know. I understand that. Which is why I've been doing some thinking."

"Thinking? About what?" Hermione pretended to be clueless but was inwardly smiling knowing that the proposal was about to come.

"Us. You mentioned that your used to just your family caring about your health and I was just thinking about that. What if we were family? What if my family was also yours. I know you already consider them family but what if you were really related to them all?" George asked trying to figure out how to just say the question without babbling. "I really have no idea what ele to say so I'm just going to ask," George continued and got down on one knee as he pulled the ring out from his pocket.

"Hermione, will you marry me?" George asked and opened the ring box. Before he even got done opening it though, he found Hermione in his arms.

"Yes! Of course." She cried as her eyes swelled with tears at the happiness she felt. When she finally detached herself from his arms and had managed to calm herself down George took her had and slipped the ring on. "Its beautiful. Oh wow. We're getting married!" She cried again and George pulled her into his arms again.

"Yeah, we are." He whispered into her ear. Then he suddenly chuckled. "If we were still at Hogwarts and somebody would have told me I would be marrying my brothers best friend and the school know it all I would have recommended they go to St. Mungos and get their head checked."

"I know what you mean," Hermione laughed through her tears, "me with the prankster of the school? Never would have believed it. But here we are."

"Here we are." He said back.


A/N- Yay! I finished the chapter a week after I wrote the top authors note! Go Nicole! Anyways okay so I think this is the last chapter unless I decide to do the wedding but I don't think I will. Too much fluff. Ah! This chapter was so corny and I'm really sorry if you thought that too. I almost died writing that.

So a few months ago I was going to rewrite this whole story because I started it when I was 12 and obviously my writing was way less than good. It was practically incoherent. But I decided it would take too long to rewrite the whole thing and I would end up making too many changes so I didn't.

I know this chapter was short but I felt I had to just get it over with! Its been way too long and I felt too guilty about just leaving it there to rot in the dome of fan fiction. Can you believe I started this over two years ago? Wow. So thank you to everybody that has ever reviewed this and you don't know how happy I was that I didn't get that much negativity on this story and I hope there won't be any more. I'd really appreciate reviews and I also enjoy getting emails from people that enjoy this story. Those are probably what made me decide to finally complete this. So thank you to everybody and its finally complete!
