» » FRED WEASLEY never believed he'd fall so deeply in love with anyone as he did Edith. His carefree spirit and reckless nature caused him to distance himself from anything remotely close to love, and he had never actually cared so much for anyone he had slept with as he did Edith. Sure, he had had sex with a handful of people in his Hogwarts days, but none of them ever made him feel as strongly as she did. It was almost as some sort of magnetic force, pulling him towards the young woman, trapping him and making him dependent on her and her alone. It was scary, terrifying actually, and yet, he allowed himself to fall for her. Because in the end, he had no control over it. Edith Gannon was bewitching, and she had him at her mercy from the very moment they met.

"You look—", Fred started, stumbling over his words as he tried to comprehend just what sort of angel he had standing in front of him.

She was wearing a cream colored dress that reached her feet, it hugged her figure perfectly and did an amazing job at accentuating the curve of her breasts. She had opted for a pair of white heels, which added some height to the already quite tall and lean young woman, making her reach to about Fred's neck. She accessorized with a pair of golden hoop earrings and some rings coating her slim fingers. Her dark brown hair had been styled into loose curls, allowing them to fall freely down her neck.

Fred couldn't help but to stare, his jaw dropping to the floor upon seeing her looking so ethereal.

Edith grinned, quite proud of herself and her ability to make Fred speechless.

"Cat got your tongue?" she spoke, sending him a wink and taking his hand in hers, pressing a wet kiss to his knuckles. "I must admit, you look quite handsome, Weasley. You scrub up well."

A light chuckle escaped the gingers lips. "Honestly woman, you take my breath away. I don't know what I ever did to deserve you." He snaked his arms around her waist, pulling her towards him and placing several wet kisses along the side of her face and neck. "You have no idea what you're doing to me."

"I love you", Edith muttered against him when he finally reached her lips.

"And I love you." Fred pampered her with kisses, each one as feverish and meaningful as the last. He was marking her as his, telling her just how much he loved her by his touch as well as his voice. "I can't wait to show you just how much later tonight." He grinned, pressing their foreheads together.

Edith smiled, breathing heavily. She was turned on by his words alone, wanting nothing more than to have him closer than this. But it had to wait. First, they had a wedding to get to.

"You promise?", she asked, perhaps a little too excitedly.

Fred kissed her forehead one last time, before grabbing his wand off the counter top and getting ready to Apparate them both to the place where Charlie and Florin's wedding would be taking place.

"I promise", he whispered, his pulse quickening and his stomach fluttering at the mere thought of what he was planning to do to Edith when they came back home after the reception.
