Morning Love. (George Weasley)

ＮＯ ＲＥＴＵＲＮＳ

Arabella's POV:

The week seemed to drag on, which I usually would find quite agonising, but for once I was quite grateful considering Katie's party was this Saturday.

It was now Saturday morning, and after a bit of negotiation, I persuaded Hermione to come dress shopping for tonight's party. The dress code was rather formal and I wanted to make sure I dressed the part.

Hermione agreed to come along and find something for herself also, as long as we could stop off in the muggle world and go to her favourite café for breakfast.

We left our boys still sound asleep in bed, as we all know how much those Weasley boys love sleeping in.

And to be honest, I wanted to sneak out before George had to chance to wake up and try and convince me to stay in bed.

Being honest, I had unintentionally put off being intimate with George since the whole issue with Truth or Dare. Not because I didn't want to, just because ever since George apologies and we made up, I had noticed him being a lot for attentive and caring than he ever has been, without letting our sexual desires get in the way.

And the longer we waited, the more the little things were started to get to us a lot more... started to make us feel a lot more. When his fingers traced my skin, when his tongue licked my bottom lip while we kissed, when tickled the nape on his neck.

And then it began some sort of unspoken game, both of us fighting the urge to give into to one another, despite the unbearable amount of tension we felt when we were in a room with one another.

So before he could try and push me to give in by pulling me closer into him in bed, giving my kisses on the back of my neck, and whispering in my ear with his morning voice... I decided some early retail therapy with Hermione was probably a good call.

We arrived at the shop, and as soon as we stepped in we were surrounded by hundreds of gorgeous dresses in all styles and colours. I looked around in awe, noticing how overwhelmed Hermione looked over all the choice.

"Good morning ladies," a tall and elegant women appeared from the dressing rooms, smiling over at us, "you here to look for some dresses?"

"Yes," Hermione smiled, "if that's alright."

"Of course, try on as may as you'd like. I'll be around if you need anything." She spoke softly, heading over to a rack of dresses to begin organising.

I grinned excitedly at Hermione, "lets get started!"

********************************

40 minutes later and I think between us we may had tried on over 20 dresses in efforts to find out that stuck out to us.

Hermione finally fell in love with a long backless gown in a gorgeous periwinkle colour. She was nervous with it being so open in the back but once she looked at herself in the mirror she couldn't deny that it looked amazing on her.
