So alright, as I'm getting further into the chapters, I'm having a bit of a writers block so these are going to be more spread apart. Sorry 'bout that. I'm trying though, really. So uh this chapter has some more 'action' in it. Nothing to bad, but be warned. Read and review :)
Chapter 6: Follow the Chocolate Frog
"Merlin George! You kissed…WHO?"
Ron was standing at the foot of George's bed while George was stretched across his sheets smiling at the ceiling. Both brothers were still in their dress robes.
"Luna Lovegood. Yep, you heard it right."
Ron gripped his forehead as he absorbed the information that his older brother was telling him. How had he not seen this coming?
"George, but she is so…out there! She was always known at Hogwarts for being bloody insane! This, this doesn't make sense to me!"
George sat up on his elbows, looking his brother in the eye, "Well guess what Ron, we aren't at Hogwarts anymore. We haven't been for years now. Who cares if she is a little different? She makes me laugh; she makes me forget everything bad in the world. And if you don't approve, well quite frankly I don't give a damn."
Ron looked back at his brother, shocked with how much sternness was in his voice. He hadn't seen George this serious since Fred's funeral. He went and sat down by his brother's feet.
"Alright, alright. As long as you're happy, I'm happy for you."
George sat up next to Ron, "Thanks Ronny boy."
The two brothers embraced in a hug as they wrapped their arms around each other. Ron pulled away, a devilish grin on his face, "Well how was it than? Out with it!"
George's faced flushed at his brother's question. He thought hard, trying to come up with one word that would describe that amazing moment. 'Amazing? Exhilarating? Fantastic? No, no, no.'
"Bloody brilliant, bro."
Ron let out a laugh as he patted his brother on the back.
"Bloody Hell, who would have ever thought…you and Luna. Wait till Harry hears this when he comes back from Romania."
Still laughing at his brother, Ron walked out of the room to go back to his girlfriend. George fell back on his bed, not even changing out of his dress robes, and feel asleep think about the blue-eyed, blonde haired witch that had taken his breath away.
o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o
Luna apparated right outside her cottage like home, dressed in the gorgeous blue dress and holding her sparkly ballet flats. Before even going inside her house, she dropped the flats and ran straight to Binx and the owlry.
"Binx! Binx! Oh you'll never believe it!"
Luna busted through the doors and rushed to her pet, stroking his feathers.
"I did it Binx. I kissed him! I kissed George Weasley and it was absolutely amazing! It was magical; I could feel my stomach doing flips inside of me. Oh Binx it was so perfect, his lips were so soft and he was so gentle with me. This night has been one of the best nights of my life, second to the day when we all defeated Voldemort, of course, but this one is definitely number two on the list."
Luna paused, catching a breath. She didn't realize she was talking so quickly. She took a deep inhale and looked into her owl's gorgeous hazel eyes.
"Binx I'm just so happy. I feel on top of the world right now. I wonder when I'll see him again…"
o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o
Luna had never been in the situation she was in now. Were they together? Well, no, not officially. Should she try to contact him first or was that the man's job? Would it be awkward the next time she saw him? When was she going to see him again?
It had been five days since the wedding and Luna had not heard anything from George. She contemplated writing to him many times but then backed out, afraid if she was being too pushy. Everyday while Luna was doing her daily routine, tending to Binx and working on the Quibbler, she could not stop thinking of the tall twin that she had locked lips with. She just desperately wanted him to contact her.
Two days later, she got her wish.
It was half past six and Luna was just finishing her next article for the Quibbler. She was sipping on tea while watching Binx, who was perched on back of the chair next to her. He was being awfully noisy tonight, hooting much more than usual. Luna found it funny though and couldn't help but snort at her pet. She took another sip of her earl tea and almost spit it out on Binx when she heard a rapping on her door.
'Please be him!' she silently prayed.
When she opened the door, however, no one greeted her. No one was at the door. She frowned at the air and was about ready to shut the door when, suddenly, she heard a croak. 'Huh? That sounded like a…' She looked to her feet and saw a chocolate frog perched on her doorstop. She went to go pick it up but it hopped off and started going towards the woods.
"Mr. Frog! Come back please!"
Luna followed the frog into the woods, Binx trotting behind her. She kept her head down, making sure to not trip on a root or step on the treat. When it suddenly stopped moving, Luna pounced on the frog, proud of her catch. She got back to her feet and lifted her head. She dropped the frog and let her hands go to her gapping mouth.
In front of her was a table draped with a gold tablecloth. There were table settings for two, with the same paper lanterns that were at the wedding floating above. The frog jumped over to the man standing next to one of the chairs.
"Good boy," he said as he lifted the frog to his face. He looked back at Luna as a smile widened across his face, "Good evening."
Luna let her hands drop to her sides. Walking slowly to the sight before her, she couldn't help but feel weak at the knees.
"George! But, how…when, I'm…"
Luna was at a loss for words. George stepped to her and took her hand to guide her towards one of the chairs.
"This is for you beaut. I wanted to do this sooner, but it is really hard to train a chocolate frog."
Luna sat down and George circled around the table to sit in the seat opposite of her. He took out his wand, flicked it, and food appeared on her plate.
"Mum helped me with the food. I'm not that good in the kitchen."
Luna finally formed a sentence, "George this is amazing. I don't know what to say!"
She looked at him. He was nervous about this whole thing; "Say you'll join me for dinner."
Luna took a second to clear her head and get herself wrapped around the idea that she was on a date. 'Back to reality Luna!'
"Oh! Of course, of course."
George let out a sigh of relief; he had been holding his breath that entire time.
They dug into the wonderful dinner that Mrs. Weasley had prepared and lightly sipped on some wine. They talked about a number of different things, mostly the wedding, and just enjoyed a night where they could be themselves. They wrapped things up with dessert, a piece of delicious apple pie, and got up to walk back to Luna's house.
"Oh wait." George turned back to the table and snapped his fingers. The table and everything with it folded into two and vanished from sight. He turned back to his date and hooked his elbow to hers. Binx, who had been observing the date from a tree, flew in front of them, landing on the roof of his owlry.
When they reached the back door Luna tensed up. 'Should I invite him in? What will that lead to?'
"Um, do you want to come in?"
George could see the obvious stress in her forehead. He brought her in close for a hug and then kissed her on the top of her head.
"Luna, listen, I really like you, if you don't already know that by now. I'm not expecting anything from you, promise. I'll go as slow as you want. There is no pressure on you to do anything."
Luna let her shoulders drop at his reassuring words. She looked up into his eyes, never feeling so grateful for anything as she did now.
"Thank you George."
"Of course."
He brushed her cheek with his thumb as she stood on her tiptoes, longing for a kiss. Their lips meet and Luna's stomach filled with butterflies, just like the first time. This time, however, she wanted to deepen the kiss so she parted her lips to let his tongue in. He gladly followed suit and soon the two were exploring the insides of each other's mouths. Finally they pulled away. George brought her in for another squeeze and gave her another peck on her lips.
"Tonight was amazing. See you soon Luna."
She replied with a smile and before she could get anything out, he apparated into the night.
o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o
This went on for weeks. George would surprise Luna out of the blue and sweep her away to do something amazing. Luna even did it for him a couple of times. One night, George apparated them to the joke shop after close. They walked through the back door into the darkness of a hallway. George reached over to his right and flicked a switch. One by one the lights started flickering and then turned on. He grabbed her hand as all the jokes started coming to life. Soon Luna could hear beeps and buzzes, sirens and laughter. She could even hear a miniature Umbridge scolding, "I will have order!"
Luna giggled at her 5th year Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher, "She really was a vile witch."
George lifted up the figurine and put her on the tightrope that went the length of the store, "Yea, she was."
Luna looked over at George; it was hard for him being back in the joke shop. Fred wasn't here to run it with him. Whenever George was in the joke shop he couldn't help but feel a little pain. Luna let go of his hand and wrapped her arms around him.
"He would be so proud that you're keeping the shop open."
George put his arms around her shoulders and rested his chin on the top of her head, "I know. It's just different, ya know?"
Luna didn't respond. Yeah, she knew. She saw how different it was around the house when her mum died. Her and her dad didn't cook or clean for weeks. Luna grew quite thin, actually. But after a while they both realized that life had to move on so they tried to get things back to normal.
He released from her and looked into the bright blue eyes that he loved, "C'mon, I want to show you a new creation that I've made."
He led Luna down the stairs and then to the left. He guided her through a door and flicked on the light. As the room adjusted itself Luna started seeing hazel eyes staring back at her. Once the lights were fully working she yelled and jumped back. Before her there were, what looked like, 100 miniature Binx's, staring back at her.
George laughed and moved her from behind him, "Don't be afraid. They're Changing Owl Plushes. I know there are kids out there who can't have a real owl because they are allergic to the feathers. You have such an amazing relationship with Binx that I thought it was sad that other kids could not have that as well." He grabbed a plush. Its eyes turned gold while it's feathers turned an amber color. "See? It changes its eyes and feathers to the child's desire. So, they can have the pet owl they've always wanted."
Luna went up and grabbed one of the plushes, of course, it stayed the same. She turned back to George, "This is amazing! Such a wonderful idea."
He grinned at her, "I was hoping you would approve. They go out into the store on Monday." George set the owl back down and it changed back to looking like Binx.
His body stiffened and his face flushed.
"Luna, speaking of amazing relationships, I really like what we are right now. Every time I'm with you it's like the world melts away. I forget that there is bad and I only remember the good. I personally couldn't see myself with anyone else at this point in time and if I saw you with someone else…well, it would crush me. I have something serious that I want to ask you and I want you to answer it truthfully." He took her hand so he could look her in the eye, "Luna I wanted you to be my girlfriend. I want it to be official. I want you to be mine, and only mine."
Luna's stomach did a flip while her heart pounded with the force of a cinderblock against her chest. She could feel her palms starting to sweat.
"Really?"
George shook his head. He was nervous as hell as far as should tell. She smiled and jumped into his arms, "YES! YES, YES, YES!"
He returned the embrace, feeling weak at the knees. He stumbled backwards onto the couch that was in the corner. Luna pulled her face away and then starting kissing him. She was hungry to feel him and she was not going to take no as an answer. She opened her mouth as he opened his and they deepened the kiss. Luna's entire body was heating up and she could feel George's body doing the same thing. Luna stuck her hands under his shirt and started feeling his abs. 'Damn!' she thought as she could feel the grooves on his stomach. She knew Quidditch players had decent bodies, but she didn't know they were this good.
George took his hand and slipped it up the back of Luna's shirt, reaching for her bra strap. He efficiently unhooked it, something Fred taught him, and then reached around to the front of her body. Gently he slid his hand up her shirt and cupped one of her small breasts. Yes, they were smaller but they still did the job. Luna let out a small groan into his mouth as he began to massage her. Her enthusiasm got him going and soon she could feel his member harden under his pants. George's hand moved south as Luna readjusted herself so she was straddling him. He lightly lifted the elastic of her pants and slipped his hand under so he could reach her soft spot. As George went under her knickers, Luna unbuttoned George's jeans and slipped her hand in. She took hold of his hard member and gave it a squeeze. George groaned and, filled with new intensity, he entered Luna with one of his fingers. The blonde witch gasped at the sensation that shot up her body. She arched her back into her boyfriend as she pumped his member. Luna's breathing become uneven and George could tell that she was going to come soon. Her body tightened around him as he entered another finger inside her. She grew louder and he pushed into her harder and faster. Luna could feel George swelling under her hand and she knew that he was going to burst at any second. Both sped up, and, like a perfectly rhythmic dance, they climaxed at the same time.
Luna collapsed on top of George as they pulled themselves out of each other's pants. Her chest was heaving against his until they both regained their normal heart rates. George lightly pushed back the hair that was plastered to Luna's face, "That was…amazing."
Luna lifted her head and kissed his neck, "I've never felt so alive before."
George took out his wand and washed away the various bodily fluids that were staining their clothes. Luna put her bra back on and George buttoned and zipped his jeans. Never letting go of his hand, Luna apparated them back to her cottage.
She led George up the stairs to her bedroom. She slowly shut the door behind her, which was somewhat pointless because she was the only one who lived in the house, and changed into a long t-shirt. She went to the bed and pulled the covers back as George followed suit. She laid down on her side and George came up behind her, wrapping his arm around her tiny waist. He kissed her on the ear and whispered, "Goodnight, beautiful."
She smiled to herself, thinking that life could not possibly get any better.
Ugh first semi-sex scene I've ever written. That was a lot harder to do than I thought. REVIEW PLEASE :)
