A thousand thoughts Chapter 6: Unexpected Surprises.
Hermione stumbled out of her room. She found Fred on her couch, with her body pillow in his arms. She slinked in to the bathroom to put on her makeup. She ran to her laundry room, slipped on her tightest jeans and her little black shirt. She knew he liked them but together she knew it would drive him crazy.
She tip toed in to the kitchen, the coffee was already going. Hermione took a handful of M&M's. As she ate her tenth handful Fred came up behind her and started massaging her shoulders. A minuet or so later he sat down in the chair to her right. "Are you feeling better?" Hermione got nervous, the night before was a confusing mess. All she could clearly remember was Fred sending her to bed. "Yes I'm fine darling.'
Fred smiled and got up. He kissed her on the cheek poured himself coffee. He walked out of the apartment. Hermione got up and fallowed him to the door. Her stomach dropped as she watched him slid in to his car. She watched him for three minutes till he came back up the stone stairs. He stopped in front of her. She was still standing in the threshold. "This is for you.
He was holding out a little box. About 2 inches in width and length. It wasn't a ring box. She knew it. Fred wasn't the type of person to get married. But she really did love him; all she could do was hope that would change. She pressed her lips together and opened it.
"A fortune cookies?" She unwrapped it and popped it open. Out came a ring. "Fred?" He slipped it on her finger. Then he pulled the paper out of the cookie and held it out for her to read.
"Hermione will you marry me? Love Fred Weasley."
"Fred!" She shrieked and threw her arms up around him. She kissed him with all she could.
"So it's a yes right?" He smiled and she smirked. He kissed her and she twirled around the house.
