Chapter 2
Almost a year had passed and Hermione and Fred had gone on many dates; furthermore, their relationship had grown stronger by the day. One afternoon Hermione was getting ready for another amazing date with Fred. As she got ready she couldn't help, but smile as she remembered their first date. Fred had taken her to the most romantic restaurant spot in muggle London. Fred had worn a nice dress casual outfit while she had worn her favorite red dress. Once they apparated to an alleyway and walked around the corner, her eyes lit up as she was in front of a restaurant that she had always wanted to go to, but never had had the time to try out. She turned to him and smiled, "Oh Fred, this place is amazing. I've always wanted to try it out, but had never had the time to." She leaned in and smiled as she kissed him, "Thank you." Fred blushed lightly and smiled, "Anytime Hermione…I mean anything for you." He then bent his elbow and smiled his famous Weasley twin smile, "Shall we go in?" She could help, but giggle, "We shall." She hooked her right hand in his and let him open the door for her.
Once inside Hermione looked around smiling as Fred talked to the seating hostess. He said, "Reservation for two under the named Weasley." The muggle seating hostess smiled and nodded before grabbing two menus and guided them to their already reserved table. Hermione's eyes got bigger as they were seated in front of a window that looked over a small pond that had some swans swimming around in it along with fireflies flashing their little lights. This in turn made the trees look like they had small little lights twinkling. Hermione smiled as she looked out of the window for a few minutes taking in the scene and then turning back to Fred. Fred smiled and looked at her, "How does this place stand up?" She smiled, "This is the most romantic place that I've ever been too; furthermore, it's even better that you are here to see it with me." Fred blushed lightly once again and said, "Likewise, my love." Soon the waitress showed up and asked if they were ready to order. Fred looked at Hermione who smiled back and nodded as he replied, "Ladies first." She smiled and ordered something that had looked and sounded delicious. Fred did the same, as well as, ordering some appropriate wine. Mione, smiled and after their food arrived and drank their wine talking for a good part of the evening back and forth.
Back to the present, Hermione soon was ready in a beautiful sundress with some cork sandals and a pair of sunglasses up on the top of her head. Fred had planned on a romantic picnic in the English countryside that afternoon. Soon enough after she was ready she heard a knock at her front door. She couldn't help, but have a smile on her face as she opened the door. "Hey." She leaned into kiss him as he handed her some of her favorite flowers and candies. He smiled as he kissed her back before saying you look amazing darling. She smiled, "Aww honey…thank you. You do too and thank you for the flowers I love them." She let him inside and went to go put the candies on the kitchen counter before putting the flowers in a vase full of water. They soon left her apartment and arrived at a beautiful spot in the country. He held her hand as they looked over the scenery and then she helped him set up the picnic blanket and food. They had an amazing time on their date and then he turned to her, "Hermione, I was thinking that we could head to the burrow this weekend and have dinner with my family." She smiled brightly and replied, "Oh Fred that sounds amazing. I would love to do that." What she didn't know was that Fred had more than just dinner with his family planned. He was planning on making it the most romantic and unforgettable evening of her life.
