Beloved- George Weasley

Chapter 76

Diana apparated in front of 'Weasley's Wizard Wheeze's.' around seven o'clock that night, the shop was about to close in half an hour.

"Welcom- oh it's just Diana. How was your first day?" Fred asked, as he stood behind the register. 

"It was fun. We just had a tour and had a little mixer." Diana said, she looked around the shop wondering where George was as she walked up to the register.

"He's upstairs making us dinner. I'm in charge of closing the shop." Fred said, Diana nodded.

"Okay, hey I saw Oliver, he said he missed you guys." Fred grinned,

"Of course, that old man missed us. Did you tell him to stop by?" 

"You know I did. I'm goanna go upstairs and wash up." Diana said, Fred nodded as a costumer walked up the register. Diana walked up the stairs, opening the door to there apartment.

"Georgie," She called as she walked in, George looked up from the cooking book his mother had sent him.

"Di, how was your first day?" He asked, as she came up to him, he shut the book setting it on the table, as he leaned down and kissed Diana.

"It was good, they showed us around, we had a little party, and signed some contracts. I met a lot of new people, and I saw Oliver. You know apparently he and Percy had a bet to see when we'd get together." Diana said, George raised his eyebrows.

"That prick actually did something interesting?" He asked, Diana bit her lip, she had forgot that the rest of the Weasley's don't talk to Percy anymore.

"I guess." 

"Who won?"

"Percy apparently." George rolled his eyes, turning to the stove, he took out some salt and sprinkled a pinch into his soup.

"You're making soup? On a hot day?" Diana asked, peaking at George's soup. 

"I didn't know what else to make, I made some garlic beard with it that you can dip in, according to Mum's book." He said.

"I'll eat whatever, I'm starving. They didn't really give us a lot of food there." Diana said, 

"I'm going to go shower before we eat." Diana said, George nodded. Diana walked to her room, grabbing a robe before heading to the shower.

Diana's hair was still damp by the time she walked into the kitchen for dinner. She sat down, George handed her the bowl of onion soup.

"I'm so hungry, who knew running a shop would be this exhausting, and it's barley been a week." Fred said, taking a large chunk of the garlic bread.

"Fred don't hog all the bread." George said, pushing the bread away from Fred.

"I'm not hogging I'm hungry!" Fred yelled, pulling the bread towards him.

"Your big stomach always finish's all the food before anyone else! Blimey you're becoming like Ron!" George teased; Fred gasped.

"Oh merlin, I've never been more offended." 

"Poor Ron isn't even here to defended himself, you two are really evil." Diana laughed. 

"I'm sure he'd agree." George said, the three started laughing before they heard the fireplace go off, and a pair of heavy footsteps enter the living room. The three froze, there smiling's slipping off there faces, frozen as they heard a man cough. 

"We're you two expecting someone?" Diana asked, the twins shook there head.

"Not that we know of." They whispered.

"Fred? George? Diana?" The man said,

"Bill?" Fred asked, standing up. Bill walked into with soot covering his face and body. 

"There you three are!"

"Do you always come into people's houses announced? You scared us half to death." George asked, as they stood up and greeted there brother. Diana stood up behind them.

"Only to my favorite brothers...and brother's girlfriend." 

"Oh, please we know Charlie is your favorite." Fred said, Bill shrugged.

"Okay my favorite brothers in London happy?"

"Not exactly, what brings you here? Do you want a bowl of soup?" George asked, Bill nodded.

"I'd love one." Bill took out his wand and cleaned the soot off his face and clothes before sitting down at the dining table.

"So, what really brings you?" Diana asked, as she got him a bowl of soup and placed it in front of him.

"Well, I wanted to talk to you guys about something. Something exciting." Bill said, picking up a spoon and trying the soup.

"Oh wow, who made this? This taste just like Mum's." 

"I did! But that's not the point. What exciting news?" George asked,

"Well, you remember Fleur?" Bill asked, the three nodded.

"We got engaged." Fred started coughing on the spoonful of soup he had in his mouth. Diana gasped and George's eyes went wide.

"You're engaged?" Diana shouted,

"Yup, we're engaged."

"I can't believe it, congratulations!" Diana said,

"Yeah, congrats old man." Fred and George chuckled.

"Did you tell Mum? That's the real question." 

"Well...no. I was hoping you three could come over next week so I could introduce Fleur and break the news to everyone else." 

"Oh Merlin, I can't wait to see Mum's reaction." George said,

"Let's just pray it's a good one. Mum can be...opinionated even if she doesn't think she shows it. That's why I want you three there to help calm her down." Bill said, taking a bite of garlic bread, he was clearly starving.

"Of course we'll be there. You think I'm missing Mum's reaction?" George said, Bill scowled.

"Let's get some firewhiskey." Fred said, he stood up opening a cabinet and grabbed four glasses and the bottle at Firewhiskey, he poured everyone a shot.

"To Bill and Fleur!" Fred shouted,

"And Mum's reaction!" 

"George!" 

"I'm kidding! Cheers!" They all downed the firewhiskey. The drink burned going down Diana's throat, she shut her eyes, shaking her head, as she set her glass down.

"Wait we didn't even finish dinner," Diana laughed, 

"My bad, I got excited."
