georges pov

i dont know why i felt today was the perfect time to go and ask her but i guess since were going to my parents house and i know how she feels bout being there without fred so i figured it would help her feel better. im not sure how im going to ask. i feel bad for her cause she was friends with angela and then when angie left she smacked the crap out of charlie because she assumed something was going on between us.

ill admit i have developed feelings for her but shes was, noi she is my twin brothers girlfriend. it doesnt matter that hes not here anymore. i made a promise to him and i dont intend to break it. but what if she says no, i dont know how i would feel if she did. i wouldnt blame her if she did. but its the best option she has to help take care of levi. yea ron and them moved in with her but i know their probably more pain then help and their not giving her much in rent.

mum definitely wont approve. i dont know why but mum has never liked fred and charlies relationship, for some reason she kept pushing charlie on to harry. even now she wants to control charlies movements with levi. she basically forbids charlie leaving the wizarding world and keeping all of this a secret from levi. i dont blame charlie. i mean shes been through alot and has lost everything, and she cant prove herslef to one of the last people that matter to her.

charlies beautiful and shes an amazing mother. when i watch her with levi its like her world stops and no matter how hard or stressful her day was she has a huge smile on her face.

my minds been racing since i asked charlie to come up to my place once she closed up. i tried taking a shower but all that did was make me think more. my brain just wont shut off. i walk out of the bathroom with just a towel wrapped round my waist, i head to my room to get dressed when i hear charlie gasp.

"im sorry i didnt hear you come in. give me a minute to put some clothes on and ill be right back." i said backing towards my bedroom, when i reached the door i turned around but look back at her and said, "please dont leave."

after a few mintues i walk out and sit down, i watch her pour her a glass of my secret firewhiskey

"pour me 1?" i said making her jump out of her skin

"omg fred dont scare me like that." 

my face fell and i looked as though i couldnt hold the tears back any longer.

"oh god george im so sorry. i didnt mean to call you him." she said fast trying to keep me from breaking down. 

"i-its fine. my mum does it alot...." i stopped and wiped my eyes "i want to talk to you bout levi."

"what about him?" she said instantly getting defensive.

"hey" i says throwing my hands up "i just wanted to kno what your going to do aout him having freds last name."

"he has freds last name. hes going to know who his father is." she retort

"i know but i was thinking that with your becoming an auror and him needing babysitting and everything if you would consider letting me help you. i know you have ron, hermione, ginny and harry living with but im talking about a different way."

"im confused. what do you mean?" she asks nervously.

"well i know how much fred loved you and how happy he was when he found out you were pregnant. i member him forcing me to go with him to buy this fo you." i reached into my pocket and pulled out a jewelry box. "we snuck out of mums house which seems really stupid now since we were of age but we knew she would kill us if she knew where we were going. we went to the muggle world and we didnt know what we were doing or where we needed to go, but it was funny. after hours of lookin we finally found the place, we went inside and it felt like we were there forever, everytime he found one he liked hed see another that was better. he finally found the one that he said was perfect and he was right it is perfect. he told me he wasnt going to ask until it was the right time. but then the war started and it seemed the right time was never going to come. the day levi was born he asked me to be the godfather then he said that he had a bad feeling bout somethin he wasnt sure what. b-b-but" i paused

"george please. i dont think i can take hearing this right now."  she pleaded

"im sorry but i have to say this. ive already said most of it, if i stop now i dont think ill ever be able to finish."

"okay. go on."

"he looked me in the eyes and i could tell he needed to talk serious stuff, he said 'i dont know how this is all going to end, i dont know if i trust harry to kill him. but i want to know if something happens to me you'll take care of charlie and levi.' i playfully shoved him and said you kno i will. 'no george' he said 'i want you to promise me that if i die before this is over that youll marry charlie and take care of them.' and he handed me this. he knew that it would screw things up with angela but he knew they were already messed up so..." i wasnt sure what else to say so i got up walked round to the side of the table where she was sitting, got down on one knee.

"i know this isnt romantic and im not the person that should be doing this. you dont have to say right now, you can have as much time as you want to think it over, but will you marry me?" i said as i put the ring on her finger and looked at her tear stained face. "please dont cry. we dont have to be a physical couple, but i made a promise to my brother and im going to honor it." i said as i hugged her and stroked her hair.

we didnt stay anything else, after a few mintues she pushed away from me and left without a goodbye or a glance over her shoulder, my heart dropped as it felt like she wasnt just walking out of my palce but my life also.
