'Ello there. Um if you are reading this chapter it means that you've read through all of them and the fact that you're still reading makes me extremely happy so thank you :) This chapter is pretty much the climax of my story. So there fore the twist is even closer. REVIEW!

The couple quickly went back into their usual rhythm after that night at Luna's. The pressure that Luna had felt before had completely dissipated and she felt like her relationship was everything she hoped and imagined. Just to be on the safe side, however, Luna did memorize the contraception charm that Hermione had told her about so that if the moment were to ever arise, she would be prepared.

o.O.o.O. 1-month later o.O.o.O.

Luna was in her study late at night with Binx, working on the Quibbler, when she heard a sudden swish followed by her front door being slammed open. Thinking that she was about to be attacked, the witch quickly grabbed her wand and casted a swift, "Petrificus Totalus!" at her intruder. The figure froze and landed on the floor with a thud. Luna ran over to the man lying on the ground and quickly reversed her spell when she saw the frozen George Weasley.

"Merlin! I am so sorry baby! Why hadn't you knocked or given me a heads up?"

George flung to his feet, talking like a madman.

"Ron was in an Auror mission gone wrong! H-he was ambushed and he was wounded badly. He's at St. Mungo's, c'mon!"

George tugged at Luna's wrist and quickly apparated the two.

o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o

Luna and George were running, no, sprinting, through the halls of the wizard hospital. George had tears running down his cheeks and Luna was still trying to wrap her head around the current situation. There were two things that she knew for sure, Ron was in an Auror mission gone terribly wrong and he was so hurt that he was taken to the hospital. 'Shit.'

The couple rounded the corner and she immediately saw the gang of fiery ginger hair. Mrs. Weasley was inside, sobbing, as she held her unconscious son's hand. Luna gasped at the terribly pale body lying in the hospital bed. His chest was rising up and down, but unnaturally slow. Ginny went and wrapped her arms around her mother. Luna looked around at the room, everyone was there, Bill and Fleur, Charlie, Percy, Neville, Harry and Ginny, Hermione, Mr. and Mrs. Weasley, and, of course, George.

Hermione was visibly shaking as she stood next to her injured boyfriend. Luna went up to her friend and held her hand, stroking the top of it with her thumb. Hermione looked over at her, eyes bloodshot and her face flushed. She rested her head on Luna's shoulder.

A short witch came in then and asked the people to give her some room. She took out her wand and touched it to Ron's chest, right on his heart. She shook her head, "No change in pulse."

Mr. Weasley shot his head up and looked at the nurse, "What does that mean?"

"It means he needs to stay the night. He hasn't improved which isn't good, but it isn't necessarily bad either, considering he has a pulse at all. The curse that hit him was very dark and he needs extensive overnight treatment. Now, if you don't have anymore questions, I have other patients to attend to."

The witch put her wand away and scurried out of the room.

The room was quiet, save for the soft sobs coming from Hermione and Mrs. Weasley. Bill stepped forward and placed a hand on his mother's shoulder, "Mum, it's obvious that Ron is in good hands. We should all go home and get some rest."

Mr. Weasley, who was leaning up against the far wall, walked over and helped his wife stand to her feet, "Bill's right, Molly. Let's head back to the Burrow."

Mrs. Weasley nodded wearily but didn't say anything. She bent over and kissed Ron on his forehead before wrapping her arms around her husband. They walked out of the room, immediately being followed by Harry and Ginny and Percy. Charlie turned to Bill, "I'm going back to Romania. Too many dragons to take care of. Send me an owl when you hear any news."

Bill nodded and Charlie followed the crowd out the door.

Neville patted Hermione on the shoulder and walked out. Bill and Fleur did likewise, with Fleur nervously clinging to her husband's side. Hermione looked back at George and Luna, the only other people who were still in the room, "I'm going to stay for a while."

Luna wrapped Hermione into a bear hug before walking out with George, hand in hand. George turned to his girlfriend, "Luna, babe, I need to stay with you tonight. I need to. This…this-"

He was trying to talk through broken sobs.

"This reminds me too much of Fred. I-I need to be with you. I need to know you're safe. If I were to lose you right now, I d-don't-"

Luna cut him off by standing on her tiptoes and giving him a gentle kiss.

"I understand babe. We'll go back to my place."

She flashed her boyfriend a sympathetic smile, to which he responded to by bringing her into his chest. The witch took a deep breath and wrapped her arms around his waist. The two stood there for a moment, just happy to be with each other. Then, in a matter of seconds they were twisting through the air and were relocated right outside of Luna's front door.

Luna opened her door and Binx hooted at her arrival. Her owl was worried that his owner left in the middle of the night so suddenly. Luna and George went up to her bedroom and she changed into a nightgown. She threw George a pair of his sweatpants and a t-shirt that he left at the house the last time he was there. They changed into the fresh clothes and went to lie down in Luna's bed. She was facing the wizard and he stroked her cheek with his fingers. Luna's eyes were barely staying open.

"Luna, babe?"

"Hmmm?"

"Kiss me. Please."

Luna inched forward and met his lips half way. There was so much fire behind his kiss. She could feel all his emotions being invested in his lips. Luna opened her mouth as she felt his tongue begging for acceptance. She let him deepen the kiss as well as slide his strong hands up her shirt. Before she could even blink, the witch's nightgown was off and her bra was unclasped.

Luna's felt herself smile against his lips. She was so incredibly happy. Nothing could ruin this moment that she was having with her amazing boyfriend.

George rotated her so that he was bearing his weight on top of her. He started suckling on her neck, causing her to buck her hips against his. He took one of her small breasts in his hand and started kneading it gently. Luna's body started tingling at his touch and she could feel the spot between her legs becoming warm and wet. George's hands moved down her abdomen and slid her knickers down her slender thighs and knees.

"I love you Luna. I- I want to taste you."

Luna let out a gasp of approval as George's head meandered down her body. He kissed the inside of her thighs but, not directly, on her now throbbing sweet spot. He was being such a goddamn tease. She just wanted to take his head and force it against her. Suddenly he inserted his tongue in between her damp folds. A sudden wave of exhilaration swept through Luna's body and she arched her back at the phenomenon. Her chest was heaving and she tugged on her boyfriend's t-shirt, willing him to take it off.

Luna knew that this was the time. Right here, right now. She was absolutely positive and she was ready.

"George, I-I, want you in me!"

She felt dangerously close to peaking and she wanted him to be inside her when she did.

George silently took his pants off and parted his girlfriend's legs to give him access. Luna scrunched her face in anticipation of the pain that Hermione had talked about. George positioned herself above her. Luna suddenly remembered the contraceptive charm and muttered it wandless. Hopefully her magic was good enough to work without the aid of her wand.

George let out a low grunt and he slowly entered into her. He reached the natural wall that was inside of her and saw her face.

"Luna, I…"

"Just do it quickly!"

George obeyed his girlfriend's request and quickly pounded into her. Luna let out a loud moan as her entire body reacted to the pain that was ripping through her. She took deep breaths to calm herself and pain started to slowly go away. George put his hands on either side of her head and started moving his hips in and out, in and out. Catching on to the pattern, Luna moved her body with his, creating a sensual dance.

Luna wrapped her arms around his neck. Why had she been so worried about sex? This felt mind-blowing!

George started grunting as Luna tightened around his member, almost at her climax. Her mouth opened and she screamed his name as she came on him. Hearing his name immediately turned George on and he started grinding faster. Soon he was groaning and moaning and Luna felt his juices fill her up as he came inside of her.

George pulled out of her and rolled over so he was lying on his back next to her on the bed. Their chests were heaving as they tried to regulate their breathing again. Luna reached for her boyfriend's hand and took it in hers. She turned her head towards his and smiled, "I love you George Weasley. "

George smiled up at the ceiling and lifted Luna's hand up to gingerly kiss it.

"And I love you Luna Lovegood," he turned to look at her, "and that was bloody brilliant."

Luna laughed at her boyfriend's approval. She rolled over and rested her head on his sweaty chest. She didn't care; she was just as sweaty herself.

Luna shut her eyes, listening to the wizard's now steady heartbeat.

This was her utopia. Being passionately in love with her boyfriend who she was lying with at this very moment. Knowing that he loved her just as much as she loved him. She let out a deep breath and held him tighter.

The two feel asleep, naked, entangled with each other.

o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o

The next morning, they woke up and got dressed. Luna took her wand and cleaned her bed from the night before. She went down stairs and started boiling some water for tea.

"I'm going out to feed Binx. Care to join?"

George nodded and followed the blonde out the back door. The owl sleepily turned towards its owner and extended its wings to shake its morning drowsiness. Luna automatically walked over to the bin and grabbed a dead mouse. She tossed it up to her owl who caught is in his beak. George watched it all with fascination.

"Your owl is more intelligent than I am!"

Luna erupted in laughter as his exaggerated remark. She heard the tea pot start to squeal.

"Oh! The water is ready for the tea."

Luna closed the lid of the bin and started walking back to her house with Binx trotting behind. Luna laughed at her beloved owl; he always looked so funny when he waddled behind her.

Luna took out two mugs and poured the steaming water. Then she took out her tin of tea pouches and deposited one in each mug. She handed one to George, who was leaning against the counter. Binx flew to the kitchen windowsill and silently watched the lovers. The two sipped their tea quietly but were soon interrupted by a glowing light aside her window. Luna turned and saw Hermione's shining otter patronus. The otter opened its mouth and Hermione's voice came through, "Ron's awake!"

Without any hesitation, Luna and George set down their tea and apparated to St. Mungo's Hospital.

o.O.o

They were soon sprinting down the halls again, this time crying tears of joy instead of tears of sadness. George slide into the room, pushing past everyone, to see his kid brother. Sure enough, Ron was awake and drinking water. Hermione was in his bed laying next to him and showing no signs of loosening her grip on him. George wiped away the tears that were streaking down his cheeks.

"How ya feeling?"

Ron twisted his head to look at his brother and then looked down at Hermione resting on his chest.

"Pretty damn good. I'm alive aren't I?"

George laughed and leaned over to kiss his brother on the cheek.

"Bloody hell George! You've gone soft."

George blushed at the true statement, "Oh shut it! Maybe it would have been better if you went into a coma."

The two Weasley boys laughed but were interrupted by a hysterical Mrs. Weasley. She came flying through the door, arms out wide.

"My boy! Oh my little Ron! Oh, oh, oh, mommy's here."

Hermione moved off the bed so Mrs. Weasley could wrap her youngest son into her arms.

"Mum, I'm fine. Just sore is all."

"Merlin Molly, give the boy some breathing space."

Mr. Weasley came strutting through the door, smiling at Ron. Ron went to go prop himself up and Hermione grabbed his elbow to help him. The little nurse hurried into the room, making her morning rounds. She took out her wand again and touched it to Ron's chest. He shuddered at the sudden chill on his skin.

"Good. Mr. Weasley, take this last potion and you should be healthy enough to go home. No apparating though for a week. Get dressed and come sign your release papers."

The witch uncorked a purple bottle and poured it down Ron's throat. He scrunched his face in disgust but couldn't complain because he knew as soon as he downed the vile liquid that he was going home. The nurse hurried out the door just as quickly as she came in.

Mrs. Weasley's entire face seemed to smile all at once, "Oh my boy is coming home!"

"Not if you don't let me get up and dress Mum."

"Oh right!"

Mrs. Weasley lifter herself off of Ron and scooted everyone out of the room, except for Hermione who refused to leave, to give him some privacy.

Ron walked out moments later and slightly limped towards the front desk to sign his release. On the walk Luna couldn't help but wonder who had done this to her friend.

"Ron," she said very quietly, "Do you know who did this to you?"

"I wish I did Luna, honestly. But once that curse was cast, I forgot everything from than on. I don't even remember how I got in the hospital."

Luna shivered at the thought. Voldemort had been dead for years but there were still dark wizards out there, trying to keep his message alive.

Ron signed his papers and since he couldn't apparate, Mr. Weasley quickly apparated home to grab some broomsticks. He came back with four, one for himself, one for Mrs. Weasley, one for Ron and Hermione, and one for Luna and George. Luna looked at the wooden device in front of her, scared strait. Luna never really fancied flying. She hated being so high up in the air knowing that at any given moment she could plummet to her death. It was one of the only things that she was genuinely terrified of. Her body started to softly shake at the idea of straddling a broom.

George took hold of her hand, "Babe, what's the matter?"

"I-I'm scared t-to fly."

George laughed at the comment, which made Luna a tad irritated. She was being truthful! Did he think it was a joke?

"C'mon beauty. You'll safe if you're wife me."

Luna furiously shook her head and took a step back.

Hermione saw her intense reaction to the idea of being in the air and she knew that feeling very well herself. She had once been terrified of flying; Harry changed all that one summer.

"Luna," she said, gently putting her hand on the small of the witch's back, "I was just as petrified as you a couple years ago. But I promise you it's not that bad. It's quite exhilarating actually."

Luna looked at her friend, who gave a wide reassuring smile.

George took Luna's hand again and pulled her closer to him, "Please, trust me."

Luna swallowed hard and reluctantly shook her head.

George mounted the broom first and then made Luna sit in front of him so that his arms were wrapped around her. He took hold of the broom's head and kicked the ground. The pair was launched into the air at an incredible speed and Luna shut her eyes. She felt her stomach drop into her feet as they rose higher into the sky.

George gave a soft chuckle and whispered into his girlfriend's ear, "Open your eyes."

Slowly the witched inched her lids open and once she did, she was greeted with a spectacular view. Below her she could see all the buildings as they blurred past them. She looked directly in front of her to the see the stretches of bare trees. Winter was just ending and you could see strait into the forests because there were no leaves to block your view.

She reached her hands forward so that they were on top of George's. She smiled at herself as she took in the sight. She then started laughing. Laughing because it was ridiculous to afraid of something so extraordinary. Just like trying sex for the first time, Luna was wondering why she had never done this before. She kept the giggles coming as she made a mental note, 'Try new things, even if they seem terrifying.'

Soon the outline of the Burrow came into view and they slowly started to descend towards the house. Luna could see Harry and Ginny standing outside the front door, awaiting Ron's arrival home.

George stuck his feet out and they smoothly landed on the ground. Luna swung her leg around and turned to her boyfriend, practically jumping into his arms.

"That, that was amazing!"

George smiled into his girlfriend's curly blonde hair, "See? Nothing to worry about."

The rest soon joined them and Ginny launched herself at Ron, practically knocking him over.

"Merlin, easy there Gin."

The witch stepped back, slightly embarrassed, "Sorry."

Hermione helped her boyfriend into the Burrow and poured him a hot mug of tea. George went and sat in one of the armchairs pulling Luna down onto his lap. She gave a giggle as she made a soft thud on his legs. Ginny saw the two openly flirting. She went over to Luna and whispered into her ear.

"Can I talk to you in my room?"

Luna nodded her head and followed her friend up the flights of stairs. Ginny pushed her into her room and shut the door behind the two of them. She snapped her head towards Luna, "Alright something happened between you and George in the last week or so that I don't know about."

Luna just smiled to herself.

"I'm just happy is all. Gin, this is the first serious relationship I've been in and its been going so smoothly. George just knows how to make me feel like a real lady."

"How?"

Luna knit her eyebrows together, "Huh?"

"How? How does he make you feel like a lady?"

"Well he always calls me beauty, or pretty. And he just…knows me. He knows how to make me feel good about myself."

Ginny shook her head, "You're holding back." The ginger witch sat on her bed, thinking about what the missing piece could be. She suddenly had an epiphany and her eyes widened in delight. Luna swallowed hard, 'Here it comes.'

"Oh my Merlin…YOU TWO HAD SEX!"

Ginny practically screamed the last bit and Luna jumped onto her and clasped her hand over her friend's mouth.

"Ginny! Would you keep it down!"

Ginny licked the inside of Luna's hand so she would uncover her mouth. Luna slid her hand away and rubbed it on her jeans.

She looked back at her friend who was basking in the fact that she had figured it out.

"Yes, okay? Last night we had sex for the first time. And even though it hurt at first… I loved it. A lot."

Ginny started laughing, "Isn't it great?"

Now it was Luna's turn to laugh. Her whole body shook as she let the laughter flow. The two girls fell back onto the bed. Ginny turned to Luna, "Just don't hurt him, okay?"

Luna took a strand of stray blonde hair and tucked it behind her ear, "I won't. Promise."

The friends hugged each other and then went downstairs to join everyone else and celebrate Ron's return home.

Told ya this one would be longer. AND THEY FINALLY HAD SEX! Bowchicawowwow! Review! AND THE TWIST IS COMING I PINKY PROMISE!
