I'm not sure about this one. Also, please read the AN at the end, thank you!
"Ooh," Hermione moaned, her body arching away from the settee.
"How you feeling?" Charlie asked, chuckling at his girlfriend. She glared at him before rearranging herself so that she was curled up, predominantly on her stomach, with her back away from the cushions. "I did warn you."
"Shut up Weasley," she grumbled which caused him to laugh loudly at her.
The couple had just come home from The Burrow where the girls in the family had decided that it was a wise idea to go sunbathing - none of the men had any complaints due to the view they were getting - but one woman felt that it would be a great idea to fall asleep.
Charlie had gone over and tried to wake her up, or at least persuade her to lay in the shade where she would be safer but she'd insisted that she wasn't asleep and was going to stay in the sun with the girls so that she could converse with them. She'd also insisted that she'd applied the sun protection charm on her skin, preventing her from receiving burns. With it being Hermione, nobody had any reason to doubt her.
That was until two hours later and she was starting to look a particularly… lobstery colour.
Ginny and Tonks had exchanged looks which practically meant that she'd be remembering this moment for a long time coming whilst Fleur, Angelina and Lavender fussed over her and apologised profusely for not ensuring that it had been done. Ron and Harry had laughed loudly which Hermione countered with flying birds that attacked the duo and the rest of the family wisely kept quiet.
Now, they were at home with a grouchy Hermione who couldn't lay on her back and a smug Charlie who couldn't believe he'd believed her.
"Can you pass me the burn paste?" she asked, her voice muffled as she had smooshed her face into a cushion.
"Here," he offered, "let me put it on." He scooped some of the paste onto his fingers and very gently ran them along the top of her back, wincing when she hissed at the contact. Almost immediately, though, the effects of the paste kicked in and a cooling agent was triggered, making the burnt area practically numb. He scooped some more into his hands and began to gently rub it on all burnt areas of skin before massaging the excess into her skin.
By the end, she was practically a melted putty on the settee before him, which made him a bit smug.
"What did we learn?" he whispered in her ear.
"That you have wicked fingers and I now need a massage daily."
"Daily?" he chuckled, eyebrow raised.
"You're right!" she said, grinning as she turned her face so that she could look up at him. "Twice daily sounds like a much better offer."
Me and my sister have compiled a list of AU prompts that she would be interested in reading. We didn't encounter any problems with the prompts but with who the prompts should be about. We gathered many names and pairings that Hermione could be with and since we couldn't decide, i'm bringing the choice to you. On my profile, I've created a poll. There are ten choices for you to choose from. If you don't want any of them but would like to read AU prompts from me, then please, message me the character and I'll keep it ready for the next batch. I'll most likely start it once this particular series is finished but please, vote for me, even if you're not going to read it. It'll actually help me!
