George soon caught up with Savannah and when he did he wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her to a stop.
"Hey," she pouted softly, "that's not fair." He leaned down to whisper in her ear;
"All's fair in love and war." She laughed.
"Let me go first." He said.
"Of course. Ladies first." Savannah stuck her tongue out at him.
"Now THAT, was uncalled for," he said, making sure hurt was present in his voice.
"Aww I'm sorry." She replied.
"Oh you better be."
"Or what? What are you going to do to me?" She asked.
"Don't worry, I'll think of something."
He walked into the house, Savannah following closely behind him. Although she'd been in the burrow before, it still amazed her. She thought the house was remarkable. Mrs Weasley was in the kitchen, where she was preoccupied with making breakfast for Harry, Ginny, Ron and Hermione, who were all sat at the table.
"Mum can we talk to you for a second?"
"What? Of course dear. Wait did you just say we?" She looked up and so did everyone else. They saw Savannah standing behind George and everyone but Mrs Weasley waved.
"Yes I said we mum."
"Hang on a second," she said waving her wand over several objects. Savannah smiled at everyone sat at the table, but her eyes lingered longest on Harry. Ginny noticed and gave Savannah a he's-mine-so-back-off look. Savannah just raised an eyebrow at Ginny.
"Right, what did you want to talk about?" Mrs Weasley asked, looking at George. He gestured to the sitting room. She nodded and the three of them walked into the room.
"Wander what they're talking about?" Ginny asked the group.
"I don't know. I bet Savannah's going to end up staying here. Its obvious they like each other." Hermione replied
"Yeah it is." Everyone else agreed.
Meanwhile, George was having trouble persuading his mum.
"Come on mum. Savannah's got nowhere else to go!" George pleaded with his mother, his eyes said it all.
"I just don't understand why this Dretly fellow would just up and leave! I think it's a little strange it all!" She replied.
"Well.. we never really got on well. I think he only came with me so he could steal all my stuff. Please Mrs Weasley, I don't know anybody! My parents are both dead, I don't know anybody but you! You're my last hope.. otherwise.. well I'll have to sleep in a gutter somewhere." Savannah sighed.
"Oh fine. But I'm still not happy about you two sharing a room."
"Mum we'll be fine. What are we going to do?" George asked. Molly gave him a meaningful look.
"Mum come on!"
"You never know…I'll discuss it with your father when he gets home from work."
Savannah and George walked back into the kitchen.
"Do you want some breakfast Savannah?" Mrs Weasley asked.
"No thanks I'm good, I've already eaten."
"Me too." George added. Savannah smiled at him, then walked back outside to collect her bag.
"So do you want me to show you you're room?" He questioned.
"Yes that would be nice," she laughed. He grabbed her hand and led her back inside and up the staircase until they arrived at George's room.
"Well this is it," he said. The room was pretty plain, two single beds lay against opposite walls, a few posters of Quidditch players lined the wall, and a two small wardrobes lay at the end of each bed. Two tables lay underneath the window, which looked out onto the garden. The carpet was orange, and the bed covers were red.
"That's your bed." George pointed to the bed that was on the right of the room. She opened the wardrobe and emptied the things out of her bag, placing her clothes inside of it and any other belongings on the nearest table. When she turned back around, George was staring at her.
"What?" she asked, a little bit of worry in her voice. "What's wrong?"
"Nothings wrong." he replied, and he took a step closer to her. She almost backed away, but she stopped herself. When he saw she hadn't moved, he stepped closer again. And again. Until their bodies were touching. He titled her chin up, like he had done in the garden, and looked into her eyes again. She looked back at him with a gaze so intense he thought it would burn him. Taking a deep breath he dipped his head down and pressed his lips against hers. At first she was too shocked to do anything, but after a few seconds she started to kiss him back, and they only stopped when the felt the need to come up for air. Both panting slightly the looked again at each other.
"Savannah……I really like you.. and if you don't like me, well I guess it doesn't matter." George said nervously.
"If I didn't like you would I have kissed you back?" she asked smiling.
"I don't know. You might have done."
"I don't think I would have done," she replied, and she grabbed the front of his shirt and pulled him down so she could kiss him again.
Two hours later everyone was sat outside, lying on the grass, talking about the first thing that came into their heads. Everyone was Ron, Hermione, Harry, Ginny, and of course George and Savannah.
"So Savannah, how come we've never seen you at Hogwarts?" Ginny asked.
"Oh I was home-school. My dad was a bit weird about me meeting other people. Truth is I've never even been out of my house until three weeks ago."
"Seriously? That's really weird!" Ron exclaimed.
"Yeah I know but I don't really care. I had good teachers, and I had a pretty good life." She replied.
"But still… so you've never had any real friends?" Ginny asked.
"Nope. Never. The only people I had contact with were my dad and my teachers"
"Strange."
"I got used to it."
"So, you all went to Hogwarts?" They all nodded. "What's it like there?" For the next few hours they talked about anything and everything. It was like a really intense game of truth or dare with out the dares.
"Dinners ready!!" Mr Weasley called into the garden. The six of them climbed to their feet and walked inside.
"George, Savannah, can I have a word with you?" Mrs Weasley asked when they had finished. They both nodded and followed her and Mr Weasley outside.
"We have decided that you two can share a room," Mrs Weasley said through heavily gritted teeth. Both Savannah and George smiled happily when they heard this. Mr and Mrs Weasley walked back into the house. Savannah was going to follow them, but George grabbed her arm and pulled her back. She turned back to look at him, and he smiled at the confused expression written on her face. He pulled her closer to him and slid his arms around her waist. He leaned down and captured Savannah's lips once again with his own. She reacted and kissed him back as she slipped her hands around his neck. He smiled softly as she ran her tongue over the slight parting in his lips, and he opened them so she could deepen the kiss. The stood there for several minutes, kissing passionately, until they needed air. They broke apart unwillingly and George rested his forehead gently on hers. George tangled their fingers together and pulled her away from the house.
"Where are you taking me?" Savannah asked.
"Somewhere special, now come on." He tugged her hand again gently and she followed him.
From an upstairs window, they were being watched. Ginny Weasley turned around to face Harry, who was sat on her bed, reading a book he'd found on her bedside table. When he felt her eyes on his face he lowered the book and looked at her.
"Remind me again why your spying on them?" He asked, narrowing his eyes at her.
"Because he's my brother. He's not been the same since Fred died. I just want to make sure he doesn't get hurt.
"Ginny," he said softly, climbing to his feet and walking slowly over to her. "He can look after himself. I'm sure he doesn't want all his relationships ruined by his little sister."
Ginny sighed, because inside she knew he was right. Harry closed the little distance between them and hugged her tightly. She smiled and hugged him back. They broke apart after a few seconds and Harry kissed Ginny softly. She responded by kissing him back fiercely. She slid her arms up his body until they rested behind his neck, and his hands moved to her waist, holding her as close as possible. He tangled one of his hands in her hair and she did the same. After a few minutes they broke apart for air and to catch their breath. Soon after they were at it again, and Harry slipped one of his hands underneath Ginny's shirt. When she didn't stop him he started to draw invisible shapes on her stomach with his fingers.
Just when things were about to get a little more heated, the door burst open and Ron and Hermione toppled through the doorway, wrapped in each others embrace and kissing as though their lives depended on it. Harry whipped his hand out from under Ginny's shirt and the pair froze, staring at the couple who had just come bursting into the room. Hermione was the first to notice that they weren't alone and pushed Ron away, a look of mingled shock and horror on her face. She immediately flushed a bright shade of red, as did Ron when he finally realised what had happened.
"I am so so sorry," Hermione stuttered, after minutes of stunned silence, where everyone had just stared at someone else.
"Yeah, and Harry, what the hell where you just doing with my sister?" Ron asked, embarrassment forgotten.
"Ron, shut up, and lets go." Hermione muttered, and she dragged Ron from the room. "You really are an idiot Ron. Why cant you just leave them alone!" she said in an exasperated voice.
"Because she's my bloody sister, that's why."
"Oh just calm down Ron, seriously, you'd think we'd walked in on them having-"
"What!?! Do you mean to tell me my sisters not a v-"
"Ron! I was joking! Calm down." They had reached Ron and Harry's room, and they stepped inside.
"Well don't bloody joke about stuff like that. You almost gave me a heart attack. Now where were we?" He asked a mischievous glint in his eye as he shut the door behind them.
"We're nearly here," George called behind him. He still had hold of Savannah's hand as he led her through the undergrowth they were walking through.
"Why do you have to take me to a place that takes half an hour to get to!" She exclaimed. "And that's not even mentioning the two tonne of plants we have to fight our way through." George just laughed.
"Trust me, it'll all be worth it in the end." He heard her grumble something but couldn't make out the words. He pushed apart the last few tree branches and turned round.
"Close your eyes," he instructed. She sighed audibly and shut her eyes. He moved so he stood behind her and covered her eyes with his hands. Then he pushed her forward gently and guided her so she didn't fall over.
"Ok, open!" He stepped to her side and heard her gasp. "So.. do you like?"
"I love it! How did you find this place?" Savannah asked she spun slowly on the spot, taking in her surroundings. They were standing in a large clearing, trees on all sides. a small stream ran through the middle, the sound of the rushing water strangely peaceful.
"I was just walking around one day and I stumbled across it. Quite literally. I fell over and landed here." George laughed, and Savannah laughed as well. "It was after Fred passed away," he sighed softly. "I just liked to come here and think, you know? And now you probably think I'm a… well I don't know, something really stupid."
"No, George, no. I could never think of you like that." He lifted his eyes to look into hers and saw that what she said was true. He smiled at her, and she smiled back. Then they kissed, again.
"Oh, George before I forget. Are we boyfriend and girlfriend now?" Savannah asked.
"I don't know. I mean if you don't want to then that's fine."
"Of course I want to otherwise why would I have asked?" A look of relief passed over George's face.
"Good," he said and laughed. She laughed to, and they walked, hand-in-hand, back to the Burrow, to finally get some sleep.
