Chapter 4

Hermione groaned as her headache over took her. She tried to lift her head but sent herself into a dizzy spell. The fuzziness of her mind would not clear. She was aware of Fred's arm across her stomach. 'What happened last night' she groaned again. It hurt to think. The last thing she could remember was Fred saying sorry. 'Why was he sorry, it's not his fault I got drunk because my friends hate me…' Hermione felt a pang of sadness and something else. That something else made her sit up quickly, ignore the spinning room and run to the bathroom slamming the door behind her before promptly spilling her guts into the toilet. Hermione pulled away from the toilet to lean against the wall dabbing the side of her mouth with the toilet paper. Her head was pounding as she felt like crap. 'Oh god' Hermione leaned over the toilet again.

"That is totally disgusting," she muttered. Now this wasn't the first time Hermione had a hang over but it felt like it. You never seemed to remember your previous hangovers… For the third time she lent over the bowl, this time to her surprise someone else was holding her hair back and rubbing her back. Hermione leant against the wall.

"Feeling better?" asked Fred kneeling in front of her.

"No".

Fred stood up and went to the bathroom cabinet. He pulled out a bottle of Green liquid and bought it over sitting next to her.

"What is it?" asked Hermione suspiciously her stomach churning.

"Being the smartest witch of your age you should no what Hangover cure potion looks like" Hermione gave him a look and pointed at the bottle.

"THAT is not hangover potion. Hangover potion is Blue not bloody Green Fred."

"Yes but this, George and I made. It is a special potion. It's hangover potion, the pepper up potion and a few other ingredients mixed together. It works wonders. Doesn't just take away hangover symptoms but leaves you feelings much better and refreshed" Fred held the potion out to her. Hermione gave him a fleeting look before taking it and downing it. Immediately the effects began to take place. Her headache was gone, the fuzziness of her mind, the urge to throw up and she felt energized even.

"It works"

"Of course it does!" Fred smiled goofily and kissed the top of her head.

"I'll make breakfast this once. You take a shower."

"Thanks"

"Anything for you darling" said Fred with a flourish making Hermione blush. With a bow and a blown kiss he was gone. Hermione thought she'd never understand that man. Half an Hour later Hermione was downstairs feeling heaps better after her shower. She had dressed in a ruffled white mini skirt covered in big pink, blue and yellow spots. Matched with a light pink singlet top that hugged her body showing her curves. She had her hair in a messy bun and was wearing no shoes.

When she walked into the kitchen Fred took one look at her and his eyes widened in shock.

"What? Don't you like it?" asked Hermione nervously looking down.

"No you look great but it's doing things for my male mind," replied Fred making Hermione blush once again as she took a seat. Fred came over and served her pancakes, bacon and eggs and a glass of orange juice. He kissed the top of her head, "You look ravishing darling," he whispered in her ear.

"Thanks" she replied not knowing what to say.

"About last night…"

"Don't think anything of it. You were very entertaining"

"Pardon"

"Oh yes, you're very amusing in a drunken state" Fred turned away to hid his grin at her shocked wide eyes.

"I didn't do anything last night did I?"

"Oh no, just dragged me to a sex bar and danced topless on the table for me that's all" Hermione let out a squeak of embarrassment.

"I did what!"

"Oh yes, than we came back here and had wild passionate sex"

Hermione blushed. "I, I…" words failed her until Fred let out a snicker.

"Just what do you think you're laughing at. Of all the things! Laughing because I was so drunk I don't remember having…" Hermione paused. If she had than why was she dressed this morning?

Fred let out a deep laugh and couldn't stop.

"FRED!"

"Yes my dear!"

"I did not such thing!"

"No you didn't. But it was fun to see you squirm and be embarrassed. You're cute when you're blushing. All you did was talk to me, I took you upstairs to bed were you fell asleep"

"Oh. Don't ever scare me like that again!"

"As you wish" but he couldn't help but laugh at her expression.

6 MONTHS LATER (1/2 a year has already passed)

"MYA SWEETIE! WHERE'S MY BLUE SHIRT!"

"IT'S HANGING UP IN THE WARDROBE NEAR THE BACK!"

"FOUND IT!"

Fred had taken to calling Hermione, Mya and loved making her blush by calling her sweetie, darling, honey, whatever he could think of. They had settled into a routine and where now leaving quite contently. They still hadn't err…done the deed since there wedding night but things were going as well as they could. Both were quite lusting over the other. Fred was dying to just roll over one night and have his way with her, being the man that he was. Hermione on the other hand dreamed of his touch. Every morning they woke up before 7:30am. Hermione showered first while Fred stubbornly lay in bed. She'd wake him up and than go down stairs to make breakfast while Fred showered and got ready for the day. They'd only had a few awkward moments like walking in on each other showering or changing. They attended the ritual every second Sunday Weasley Dinners pretending to be the oh so happy couple. Her friends still wouldn't talk to her but Hermione pushed it aside. Well that wasn't true, in secret Harry had begun to send her letters behind Ginny's back. The first one he sent was to apologise saying he was never mad in the first place but Ginny wouldn't have it. Hermione and Fred had their routine moments together. On Mondays they sat down to watch Grey's Anatomy. Every Tuesday at 9:30pm they watched Rove Live. On Wednesday it was CSI Miami. On Thursday it was the Mole and on Friday, Charmed.

Between Fred and Hermione they made small gestures, which they told themselves, was to make the marriage seem for real. Like hand holding the small pecks on the cheeks etc. Today Hermione had worn a simple flared pink skirt and a blue short-sleeved shirt with her hair in a bun, simple earrings and black shoes with a small heel.

"FRED BREAKFAST!" shouted Hermione placing his coffee and breakfast down before getting seated herself.

"BE RIGHT DOWN HONEY!" Hermione rolled her eyes, it never failed. Almost every sentence ended with some name.

Hermione heard Fred before he arrived. He came down the stairs like an elephant before bounding into the kitchen. He kissed the top of her head and sat down.

"Good morning beautiful!"

"Good morning dear"

"Ready for the dinner with the family tomorrow"

"Yes dear"

Half an hour later they were both walking out the door. Fred a few blocks away to Diagon Alley and Hermione to the Ministry.

"Have a nice day at work darling" Hermione kissed his cheek

"You too sweetie"

Hermione apparated into the atrium and took the elevator to her floor. She walked into her secretary's office/waiting room and was promptly handed a latté by her secretary.

"Good morning Mrs Weasley"

"Margot, how many times do I have to tell you? Please call me Hermione"

"Yes Mrs Weasley" Hermione sighed.

"Any messages?"

"Yes, just one. Madame Jones wishes to speak with you. It sounded important. You're scheduled to meet at 9:30am. Oh and Mr Creevey came by with some files you need to fill out and sign"

"Okay. Thanks Margot"

Hermione walked past her and into her own office and began to fill out the files on her desk. At 9:30 she left the office and went to see her boss.

"Good Morning Mrs Weasley"

"Good Morning Charlotte"

"Madame Jones is expecting you. Go right in"

"Thank you Charlotte" Hermione pushed open the doors and into her bosses office. Janelle Jones looked up from her desk smiling broadly.

"Hermione dear, take a seat" Hermione obliged.

"How's married life treating you?"

"Very good Madame"

"Oh please call me Janelle" Janelle gave her a big smile.

"So why did you want to see me?"

"See that's what I like about you. Always ready to talk business." Stated Janelle getting up out of her seat and began walking around the room. It made Hermione slightly nervous.

"So your husband and you getting along"

"Yes Mad-Janelle"

"And he's supportive of your career?"

"Yes," replied Hermione slowly not seeing where this was going

"You're one of my best employees Hermione. You have so much talent"

"Why thank you"

"Which is why I'm promoting you"

"Excuse me?"

"Yes you heard correctly. You've been doing so well. Mr Gerald Kane just retired and his spot needs filling and you're the women to do it. You'll move into your new office today"

"What about Margot?"

"Margot? You're secretary? You hired her! She's goes where you go"

"This is unexpected"

"Pish-posh! Congratulations Mrs Weasley you're my new head of the Children's wealth fare department. You're the boss over your old Children's right's department, Adoption Department and Department of Abuse. You're going to be one busy woman"

"Thank you so much Janelle"

"No need to thank me! You deserve it! Now along with your new title, you have a 20 raise and must attend important ministry parties, attend some court proceedings and other what not. You may very well become apart of the public eye. I know you'll do fine though. Now off you go to start packing. I have a meeting with Mrs Abbot-Boot. Good day Hermione."

"Good day Madame, I mean Janelle"

Hermione walked out of the office with a big grin on her face, off to tell Margot to start packing. By the time they had packed everything in boxes and taken them to the new office, the working day was over. Hermione sent Margot off and left all her boxes locked away in their office's to be finished unpacking Monday. With a big smile she apparated to the apparition point near home and walked from there. At the moment it was 6:30. She hurried up the small set of steps and opened the door.

"I'm home!" she shouted as she walked through the house to the kitchen.

Standing over the stove Fred gave her a big smile.

"How was work Hun?" Hermione came over to inspect what was for dinner and gave him a peck on the cheek. It was spaghetti- her favourite.

"Smells good. Work was brilliant" Fred raised an eyebrow but didn't say anything.

Once dinner was over Fred couldn't take it any longer.

"Spill"

"I don't know what you're talking about," replied Hermione innocently.

"What happened at work that got you so happy"

"Well- I got a promotion!" Fred broke into a big grin and closed the gap between them.

"Congratulations!" He picked her up and gave her a huge hug and a quick kiss. Hermione blushed and was beaming.

"I'm so proud of you sweetheart! You've been wanting this for awhile now!" Hermione nodded. "It's such a big promotion. I'm boss over three departments now!"

"I'm so proud of you!"

"Thanks Fred"

"Nonsense. Now you go sit down, I'll clean up tonight!"

"Oh no Fred, You don't have to do that!"

"I don't have to, but I want too"

"You're so wonderful to me"

"I know"

Hermione went off to do some work in her study and when Fred was done cleaning he went down to the basement to work on some new inventions. At 9:30 Hermione went upstairs to have a shower and go to bed. She pulled out her pajamas and went into the bathroom. After her shower and she put on her pajamas she realized she picked the nightgown she never wore, heck it was her only nightgown. Ginny had given it to her years ago. It was a white silk nightgown that hugged her figure, leaving nothing to the imagination that fell to her mid thigh and was trimmed with lace. 'What's Fred going to think' Hermione blushed thinking about his reaction. She was pulled out of her thoughts by a knock on the door.

"Hermione"

"I'm coming" Hermione walked over to the door and yanked it open. Fred was leaning against one side of the doorway and his hand was outstretched leaning on the other side. His mouth fell open when he saw her. Hermione blushed furiously at his gaze and ducked under his arm. Fred's eyes followed her all the way to the bed where she got in pulling the blankets right up and rolled over. Fred shook his head and disappeared into the bathroom. He came out a bit later dressed as usual in only his boxers. Hermione wished he wouldn't. He got in and turned off the lights.

"Night"

"Night Fred"

Hermione blearily opened her eyes in the very early hours of the morning. Fred had an arm around her and her head was lying on his chest. 'Why do we always wake up in embraces like this?' Hermione quietly looked at her watch, it was only three in the morning. Hermione listened to Fred's steady breathing it was quite soothing. She turned on to her side propping herself up. Sometimes when she awoke she would just watch him sleep. She looked up to his face and to her shock he was staring right back at her, his blue eyes seemed to brighten in the dark. She didn't know what possessed her but suddenly they were kissing softly. Fred's other hand was on her arm. Soon the kiss deepened and became more passionate. The next thing she knew Fred has pushed her onto her back and was leaning over her. Hermione's mind went out the window as his hand went to the hem of her nightgown and before she knew it he had pushed it up around her waist……………………

Hermione sighed as she snuggled up to Fred who was behind her with both arms wrapped around her. 'I can't believe what we did last night'. She knew he was awake when he kissed her bare shoulder.

"Good Morning" he murmured.

"Good Morning" she replied. Of course she liked what happened last night and wouldn't mind it happening again….

"Fred? About last night….." she started rolling over to face him.

"Yeah?" Hermione blushed.

"Umm do you think that could be… I dunno, a regular thing?" Fred simply raised an eyebrow.

"Like you know so we don't umm, end up with so much…. Sexual tension from being around the opposite sex all the time" she came up with 'yes great reason. I'm good at getting what I want' she thought. Fred nodded.

"Well I like the sound of that" he replied.

"Good" Hermione happened to look at her watch.

"It's eleven already? It's too late for breakfast and to early for lunch so how does brunch sound?"

"That sounds fine"

Hermione rolled over to her side of the bed and sat up facing away from him. She shrugged on her dressing gown and wrapped it around her doing it up tightly.

"Nothing I haven't seen before," commented Fred but he only received a mock glare in response.

Fred came down stairs half an hour later dressed in only sweat pants. Hermione was already sitting at the table. When breakfast was done Hermione started washing the dishes. Fred thought she looked absolutely gorgeous even with bed hair and only wearing a robe…. With nothing underneath. Fred walked up behind her, wrapping his arms around her waist. He kissed her neck. His hands made the way to the ties and began to undo them. Hermione gasped and put both of her hands over his.

"Fred" she hissed.

"Yes my dear" he replied and kissed her neck.

"Just what do you think you're doing"

"Why trying to remove this dressing gown"

"Fred I'm right in front of the window! The neighbors will see!"

"So let them see how gorgeous you are"

"Fred! When I said make it a regular thing I didn't mean whenever your male mind realized there was a women in the room!"

"Fine" murmured Fred kissing her cheek and he walked away. 'Most likely to the basement' thought Hermione.

Hermione didn't see Fred all day until five thirty when they were upstairs getting ready for the family dinner. Hermione had dressed in a white skirt covered with orange, red and yellow flowers. Plus a yellow sleeve-less top matched with a yellow cardigan. She couldn't take the silence any longer.

"Fred?" she asked turning around. His back was too her as he shrugged on a shirt. "FREDERICK!" at this he turned around.

"Yes" he replied. He was dressed in a nice pair of Jean Hermione had bought him and a green shirt with black graffiti across it that he hadn't buttoned up yet so it revealed his chiseled stomach. Hermione crossed the room and took his hand in hers.

"Fred, are you mad at me?" Fred sighed bringing one of her hands up to his lips and he kissed it tenderly.

"No of course not………just a little disappointed" he admitted. Hermione smiled, she had to reach up on her tiptoes to wrap her arms around his neck to hug him. Fred obliged and wrapped his arms around her.

"I'm sorry Fred, I promise I'll make it up to you later" said Hermione suggestively.

"That I'm sure you will"

"But… tonight we have dinner with your family, so you'll just have to wait"

"I can do that"
