Bill Weasley stood up slowly and glanced around at the table, his friends and family turning to him as they halted their conversations.
"First, I want to say how happy I am that we were all able to get together after everything that's happened these last few months. Second, Fleur and I have something to share."
"Oh tell us dear, don't keep us in suspense!" Molly exclaimed.
Fleur smiled up at her husband; "we are expecting!" she beamed excitedly.
The table erupted into congratulations to the couple, Molly enveloping the two in a hug with tears in her eyes.
"Thank you all, I think Harry has something to say as well." Bill said, his smile growing bigger.
"Wow, I wasn't going to say anything today since you were telling everyone your news but I asked Ginny to marry me…"
Ginny raised her left hand, a ring glittering softly in the setting sun, "and I said yes."
George shot his gaze over to his companion at the table, the pregnancy news he wasn't worried about her getting through. A Weasley engagement had him nervous, and the tight grip she was inflicting on his wrist under the table at the announcement had him hurting for her.
"Congratulations." She finally mustered, releasing George and moving to embrace both sets of couples.
George walked over to where she stood after making his own rounds staring at her concerned, "are you alright?"
"I'm feeling a little off-centered, I don't think I was ready for this."
George watched her carefully, Kagome's eyes brimming with tears as they stood watching the group hug and chat merrily. He could see himself reflected in her grief, ad he could honestly say he was surprised they were both functioning so well.
He didn't expect the rest of his family to understand their pain, he was just happy they both had each other to get through the healing process.
Thank you HolyButterBalls for pointing out my mistake on whom Fleur was married to. It's been fixed :)
