A Sunday Kind of Love

by Sexidebater

This is dedicated to a person named Marie in the "Fremione Fanfics" group that I am in! They had a plunny about a music box that had Hermione's favorite song, Hermione loses it, and only Fred knows about it. I won't give the plot away, but expect cuteness. IDK if this will be tragedy of HEA, we'll see... And of course, credit to the late but still great, Etta James for song inspo!

6. Chapter 6

Here is chapter 6! Next chapter is being written now and hopefully posted soon! Enjoy!

Months had passed without news from the outside world.

Ron had left then came back. Hermione was still angry at him for leaving. But what was done was done.

They had destroyed the locket horcrux, so no more negative influence on them, or at least nothing that was dark magic.

Then, a slip of a tongue caused their capture.

After Dobby's heroic efforts to rescue them from the Malfoy Manor, perishing in the process, Hermione found herself at Bill and Fleur's shell cottage.

A few days after Malfoy Manor, Hermione was curled up in the living room as Bill fiddled with the radio.

Static was playing as Bill mumbled various words under his breath while tapping the radio with his wand.

After about a minute or two, voices came through the radio.

"This is River speaking, and you are listening to PotterWatch!" Said a very familiar voice that sounded like Lee Jordan.

Hermione perked up as another voice that sounded a lot like Fred's came through the station.

"Rapier here, with updates on a confirmed Potter and the gang spotting." Fred started, "Rumor, while not actually a rumor as I have my sources says that Potter and his friends were captured by the snatchers, taken to Malfoy Manor, and then they escaped!"

"Merlin's Beard! How did they do that?" Asked River.

"I have my sources who told me the details, but for safety's sake, just know that Potter is back on the run, he's got a lead on something, and that he will be facing the Chief Death Eater soon!"

"That is excellent news!"

"Yes it is! Now, usually we don't play music on here, but I have a special girl who is on the run, and I hope she's tuning in tonight. This song is for her, to help her remember the good times and the better times to come. I look forward to seeing you soon. It's by a muggle named Etta James for the listeners who aren't familiar with muggle music. Hit it River."

"A Sunday Kind of Love" started to play, Etta's haunting voice filling the room with her smooth lyrics.

Tears started to well in Hermione's eyes. After all she had endured on the run and at the Malfoy Manor, how she was starting to lose hope, Fred just gave it all back to her.

Bill looked over at her and smiled.

It was so worth the time he took fiddling with the radio. He and Fleur had both noticed that she was losing hope. And he had been the source that Fred was talking about. He had asked him to give an update, and possibly, give Hermione some hope, because it was fading fast for her.

Hermione sniffled, catching the attention of Fleur who got up from her armchair and sat next to Hermione, giving her a hug.

It was what Hermione needed.

"I actually have a surprise for you. I can't tell you what it is, but give it an hour." Bill said carefully.

Hermione quirked an eyebrow, "What?"

"Just wait, and don't try to guess, because I won't confirm or deny. But an hour, please."

Hermione nodded and leaned back with her eyes closed and a smile on her face as she listened to the last verses of the song.

Hermione passed the next hour reading a book, then there was a cheerful knock on the door.

Hermione knew who it was, Bill couldn't fool her.

Bill answered the door as Hermione perked up, and as expected, in walked none other than Fred.

Hermione stood up as fast as she could and rushed over, Fred met her in the middle, where they embraced, tears streaming freely down their faces.

Hermione buried her face in his chest, inhaling his smell, trying to memorize it.

Fred pulled away a few moments later, "Hello 'Mione."

Hermione chuckled, "Hello Fred."

He kissed her forehead softly, muttering against it, "I've missed you so much."

Hermione smiled as a few more tears fell, "I missed you too."

Fred wiped her tears away with his knuckles. "Don't cry my dear."

Hermione sniffled, "How long do we have?"

"Just the night. I have to leave in the morning. I don't want to stay too long. Had to lose the snatcher who was following me first. I stunned him and left him in a gutter."

Hermione giggled, "Good. And a night is also good. I'll take what I can get."

"Wish I could give more."

"It's okay. It'll all be over soon and then we'll have the rest of our lives together."

Bill cleared his throat, "Um, do you guys want dinner first, or are you going to disappear for the night?"

Fred chuckled, "Let's have dinner first. We need energy."
