Chapter Thirty-Three: A Reunion
I laid on my sofa a butter beer in hand. Keisha's wedding had been a week ago. A week ago I had made a total fool of myself. I had poured my whole heart of to Tessa and she went back to Androv. I laid there on the couch wrapped up in a red blanket Tessa had made me for Graduation. It's still my favorite blanket. I still sleep under it at night. Today is Tessa's seventeenth birthday. I had always intended to propose to her on her seventeenth birthday. And I mean really propose. Not give her another promise ring. I sighed again taking another swig out of my butter beer before standing up still wrapped in my blanket walking over to my bed laying down on my stomach stretching out.
Grandma Molly is already on my tail about finding a nice girl to settle down with. Too bad I don't want anyone else. I want Tessa. I heard my floo activate and looked up. There stood Tessa with her suitcases in hand. She shrugged looking at me.
"Are you really here?" I asked stupidly. She nodded. I set my beer down on the night stand and walked over to her hugging her. She hugged me back tightly. I kissed her all over her face.
"I love you." She whispered kissing me dropping her luggage at our feet. "You were right; I couldn't picture myself with him fifty years down the road." I nuzzled my head into her neck.
"And who did you see yourself with?" I asked still buried in her neck inhaling her perfume and her hair. I could picture her smiling as we just stood there holding each other for the first time in months.
"You; it's always been you." She whispered into her ear. I picked my head up off her shoulder and looked deep into her chocolate brown eyes kissing her deeply. I missed the feeling of my lips pressed against hers. I had never felt something so right in my whole life. She pulled away for a half a second. She was smiling her goofy smile. "Can you grown your hair out again now?" She asked. I laughed pecking her on the lips.
"Anything you want." I admonished picking her up laying her down on the bed. We laid there for hours kissing and cuddling. Talking, teasing, and playing. I missed tickling her sides and listening to her squeal with laughter. I missed telling her about every detail about quiditch games and the way she would listen even though she can't stand the sport. I loved hearing her talk about Juliet and her trip to Bulgaria.
"I've missed going to your matches just to support you." She whispered to me as we lay in the dark holding each other playing with each other's hands.
"Ron and Jocelyn are having a baby." I whispered. Tessa was the first person who wasn't my parents that I had told. Tessa smiled her Cheshire car smile.
"Awe, how cute! You're going to be a big brother!" She exclaimed teasing me. I made a face at her as she laughed giggling. "Where do they even live?" She asked pausing. I laughed. The two were based in France where she is a model.
"In France. I think the baby may be the end of her modeling career." I joked causing Tessa to giggle, "Aunt Fleur hates her. So does Aunt Ginny, Aunt Luna, and Aunt Pansy." Tessa raised an eyebrow.
"I thought Aunt Pansy would like another sister-in-law who is kept?" She teased I chuckled kissing Tessa
"She thinks Jocelyn needs to pull the stick out of her arse." I muttered kissing Tessa some more, "You never shagged Krum did you?" I asked curious how much completion I had with him. She giggled shaking her head no.
"No, I didn't." She whispered kissing my cheek reassuringly. I smiled thankful kissing her pink lips softly. "I love you." She whispered nestling into my arms even deeper. "You're the first boy I ever kissed Cal. And I want you to be the last one." She told me causing me to smile.
"I love you to Tessa." I whispered meaning it even more than normal. "I'm never leaving you again." I promised her I could feel her smile into my chest happily.
"Good, you better not leave again." She mumbled sleepily.
