The next morning after breakfast Adelaine Flooed over to his parent's house.
"Hello Adelaine," Mrs. Jordan greeted her son's long-term girlfriend.
"Hi mum."
Mrs. Jordan's eyes widened, smiled and asked. "Lee proposed?"
"He sure did, he didn't write you," Adelaine grinned.
Mrs. Jordan shook her head and replied. "Maybe the letter hasn't arrived yet."
Before Adelaine could respond Mr. Jordan walked in and said. "I take it Lee proposed."
"You knew he was going to propose?" Mrs. Jordan asked her husband.
"It was obvious, he asked for her dad's permission and he asked for your old ring," he shrugged.
Mrs. Jordan nodded and asked. "How did he do it?"
"Your dad took the whole family to a muggle baseball game and he proposed during the seventh inning and there was a kiss-cam."
"What is a kiss-cam?" Mr. Jordan asked, confused.
He had never heard of a kiss-cam being British and Pureblood.
"It's a muggle thing at sports events where the camera goes around and stops on a couple they have to kiss before they take the camera off you."
Mr. Jordan nodded.
"Did Lee stay back?"
"Yes, he did." Adelaine sighed, fiddling with her ring.
Mrs. Jordan sighed and said. "Am I right to assume that this is my mom's doing?"
"Yeah, she didn't really like me from the start." Adelaine said.
Mr. Jordan replied first. "I suppose that didn't change."
"My mum didn't and still doesn't like Curtis," Mrs. Jordan said.
Adelaine nodded and said. "Yeah, Lee told me that."
They continued talking.
After a few hours of talking with her future in-laws she apparated back to their house.
Adelaine decided to go back for her Charms Mastery right after her eighteenth birthday. She bought her books and apparated to Hogsmeade.
McGonagall greeted her when she walked in.
"Hello Ms. Romero."
Adelaine smiled at the head of her fiancé's former house and said. "Hello Professor."
"I'm no longer you're professor but if that's what you're used to."
Adelaine nodded.
"You're brave coming back to Hogwarts at this time."
"I know."
McGonagall nodded and said, "You can stay in your old dorm."
"Okay."
McGonagall nodded.
Adelaine walked to her former house. She tapped on the barrels and crawled in the common room.
She had only been gone for three months but she had really missed the Hufflepuff common room. She had her own dorm.
It was a few days into term now. Adelaine was walking in the corridors.
"Adelaine?" A familiar voice asked.
She turned to look at the bushy haired brunette.
"What are you doing here?"
"Studying to get my Charms Mastery."
Hermione nodded.
The days wore on, Adelaine spent a lot of time with the sixth year Gryffindors. She had never been really close with the sixth year Hufflepuffs. It was the first Quidditch game, Adelaine was about to fall asleep. This commentary was so boring thanks to a sixth year Hufflepuff, Zaharias Smith. She felt embarrassed for her house. Merlin, this made her miss Lee even more she fiddled with her engagement ring throughout the game.
It was now late November right around Lee's birthday to be exact. Adelaine was in the Gryffindor common room chatting with Hermione and Neville.
"So, how long have you been engaged?"
"Since July or so." Adelaine grinned fiddling with the ring.
Hermione nodded as the portrait hole opened.
"Hey there's my wonderful fiancée!" Lee exclaimed.
Adelaine grinned, ran into her fiancé's arms and knocked him down.
"Hello love," he grinned up at her. Merlin, she missed those dimples.
Adelaine smiled at him and said."Hey Lee."
She got off him and he stood up.
"Even when we're gone you still hang out with Gryffindors," Lee smirked at her.
Adelaine shrugged and said."What can I say."
Lee took her hand. Merlin she's missed holding his hand so much.
"Let's go take a walk."
Adelaine nodded and they walked out of the common room.
"Merlin, I've missed you, love!" Lee exclaimed.
"I've missed you too."
Lee grinned and asked. "How is the Charms Mastery going?"
"Good, you know they had the first Quidditch game and the commentary was insanely boring. I was practically falling asleep."
"Who took my spot?"
"Some sixth year Hufflepuff named Zacharias Smith, I was embarrassed for my former house."
"I guess you can't replace Lee Patrick Jordan!" Lee exclaimed puffing out his chest cockily.
Adelaine giggled and said. "I'd have to agree."
"I'm sorry I didn't come sooner. "
Adelaine nodded and said. "It's okay."
They walked into an empty classroom or supposed empty classroom. They saw a familiar head of red hair passionately snogging a blonde girl.
"I think we should leave them alone," Adelaine said, trying to drag Lee out of the room.
Lee didn't budge and he said. "Oi, that's enough you two." Not missing the opportunity to tease his best friend's little brother about snogging a girl.
"Well, this is awkward," Ron blushed as red as his hair.
"Come on, Won -Won," Lavender said taking Ron's hand and walking out of the room.
A blush as red as his hair formed on Ron's cheeks as they walked out of the classroom. Lee was holding back a laugh as Adelaine glared at him.
"That's quite an embarrassing nickname," Lee commented.
Adalaine giggled and said. "You have an embarrassing nickname as well."
Lee looked confused at his fiancée and asked. "I do?"
"Yes, I call you Paddy."
Lee shook his head and replied. "I happen to like that name and I don't find it embarrassing one bit."
Adelaine nodded. Lee didn't respond he just gave Adelaine a kiss. Adelaine kissed her fiancé back.
"Bloody hell, I've missed you!" Lee exclaimed leaning Adelaine against the nearest wall.
"I've missed you too."
Lee gripped his fiancée's hips tightly and deepened the already passionate kiss his hands resting on her hips. They soon drifted under her shirt and rubbed her skin.
"I can't wait until we're married and I can make love to you for real instead of this."
Adelaine pulled away suddenly.
"What's wrong?"
"So, are you just marrying me so you can see me naked?" Adelaine asked an edge to her voice.
"Well..." Lee started.
He didn't know what to say he never expected to have this conversation with his fiancée.
"What happened to the guy who told me we would tone down the displays of affection after I was sexually harassed in our sixth year."
"Love-"
"Don't 'love' me, you've changed Lee!"
"I haven't, I swear!
Adelaine took off her ring and put it in his hand, closed his hand and left the room leaving him completely and utterly shocked
