Everyone looked up.
"So you decided to make it official then, did ya?" George laughed. He turned to Ginny. "You said they wouldn't admit it until at least a couple of weeks into their relationship. You owe me 20 dollars."
"Ugghhhhhh," Ginny said. "You couldn't have waited a week to announce your relationship? Seriously Mione?"
"Seriously yourself Ginny. How dare you bet on me. How many of you saw me kiss Fred while he was unconscious?" Hermione said. She seemed very upset. Did she want to hide our relationship?
Ginny and George raised their hands, but everyone else looked shocked. "It's not like we didn't all already expect it."
I chuckled. Had they really expected this? Did everyone know I liked Mione? Did everyone know she liked me?
"Well I'm just glad you're alive." Charlie said. "I know I haven't been around much being in Romania, but I do love you brother and I don't know what I would've done without you."
"Thanks Charlie. That means a lot. Really." I said.
After that, we talked for a couple of hours, people mostly just telling me how much they would've missed me if I was gone, and then George suggested that I should get some rest and sent everyone home. Well, everyone but Hermione.
"Really Fred. I can go home to the Burrough. I need to get ready for tonight anyways." Mione said as she sat in my arms on the couch.
"Mione, it's 2 in the afternoon. You don't need 6 hours to get ready." I kissed her on the cheek. "You know, we could just sit here and cuddle for a while. Maybe watch a movie."
She sat up and looked at me. "Fred, as much as I'd love to do that, you need to get some sleep. I need to get some sleep." She kissed me on the nose and stood up.
"Ok, but why don't you just stay here with me and we can both sleep?"
"Because. We all know neither of us would end up sleeping."
"George and I have an extra room. You wouldn't even have to sleep in my bed with me. Although if you wanted to…"
"Absolutely not Fred. Although I might take you up on the extra room."
I stood up and grabbed her hand. "Sounds like I plan. I'll lead you to it."
We walked down the hall to the extra room. I went to open the door, but she grabbed my hand before I could.
"This is the part where we say goodbye and you go to your room and we both sleep, got it?" She looked at me with her cute little beady eyes.
"Yes Mione. I get it. But first--" I pulled her close to me and kissed her, but pulled away to leave her wanting more before I walked to my room and closed the door.
Switch to Hermione's Perspective
Did he just--. Did that really just--. I turned towards the extra room and opened the door. I walked in and closed the door, wanting to get some sleep before my date tonight with Fred. As I got over to the bed I saw two things: a teddy bear and a note sitting next to it that said "Hermione" on the front. I sat down and opened the note.
Dear Mione,
If you are reading this, I probably didn't make it through the war. George probably gave this to you. Or, maybe my git of a brother blew up your 4th apartment and you had to move back in. Again. Anyways, I wanted to tell you some things. First I wanted to tell you that I have liked you for a while and if somehow I actually did make it through the war, I want to take you on a date. Second, I want to tell you how amazingly beautiful you are and that you're the most brilliant witch I've ever met and you're going somewhere in life. Finally, I want to give you this bear to remember me by. If I didn't make it through the war, please hold onto this so I can always be with you, but also please don't be sad about my death. Please celebrate my life. No funeral. Just fireworks.
Love Always,
Fred
Reading this made me start to cry. I grabbed the teddy bear and held him tight. Then I got up and ran down the hall to Fred's room. He opened the door before I even knocked and grabbed me into a warm embrace.
"It's ok Mione. Everything is ok. I'm here. You don't have to cry anymore." He whispered. "Everything is going to be ok."
Back to Fred's POV
I heard cries running down the hall towards my room. She must've seen the bear and the note. I opened my door right as she got to it, and pulled her tightly into my arms, reassuring her that everything is ok.
"Fred," she started through her tears. "I can't lose you. I was reading the notes and everything started flashing back to me. I remembered laying there, screaming at you to wake up, everyone telling me you were gone. It hurt so much Fred. I can't do it again."
"Mione, I promise you'll never lose me. Now lay down and get some sleep."
"Can-can I stay in here with you?" She asked sweetly.
"Sure Mione. Anything for you." I kissed her on the forehead before walking her over to the bed and laying her down. "I'm right here Mione, and I'm never going to leave you."
