**Fred's POV**

"Will you marry me?" I ask, holding as much confidence as I can in my words.

I watch her try to speak, but nothing comes out. Like a goldfish, her mouth opens and closes but no noise appears.

"Will you marry me? Not some time soon, but in the near or distant future." I open the box. "This is a promise ring, to one day get engaged, and get married. It symbolizes the commitment in our relationship that we have and I felt it was time to tell the world that I love you, forever and always."

She slowly reaches out and takes the box, looking at the ring. Eyes dancing around the place.

"I-..."

Come on Chelsea.


**Chelsea's POV**

I'm over thinking this. Fred loves me and I love him. It's a promise ring... a promise to one day get engaged.

"I-..." Can't seem to get the words out that explain what exactly is going on in my mind right now. Why is he popping this question all of a sudden? I know it's not the question but it's pretty out there.

"I love you. I've known you since our very first train ride during our first year, and we've been best friends ever since. I've loved you for ... who knows how long." He chuckles, shaking his head. "And I'd love to one day marry the beautiful person who is sitting in front of me, but we're still young so until then I am making you a promise and I hope you will say yes to it."

... "Yes."

"What?" He looks up at me from his spot on the ground.

"Yes. Yes yes yes!" I laugh, as he jumps up and pulls me in to a kiss.

"She said yes!" He calls out. People start popping out of nowhere. Aradia, Erin, Stacey, Grace and Heather. Aerrow, Parker, Cedric, George and Lee. As well as Ginny and Hermione.

"You guys were all here?!" I laugh as they all cheer.

"She said yes, she said yes." George and Lee sing out, spinning me around.

"It's not like we're getting married." I laugh as they plop me down.

"Yet!" George grins. "I'll finally have a sister."

"Hey!" Ginny scolds him, pinching his arm. "You've already got an amazing sister. I'm the one who will get the new sister!"

"And a great sister I'll attempt to be." I smile, giving her a hug.

"I already think of you as one, always there to help me whether you know it or not. Like keeping these two out of trouble." She points in Fred and George's direction.

Fred hears and stops their conversation. "She's the one that gets us in to trouble."

"Balderdash." Ginny and I laugh.

Fred grabs my hand and pulls me close. "Come here."

"Mr Weasley." I gasp, putting on a posh voice. "I am a lady, you need to ask for my permission before touching me that way."

"I am forever sorry Miss Gidget." He bows, offering his hand. "May I embrace thee?"

"You shall." I wrap my arms back around him.

"Would m'lady like to wear the ring?"

"If I must." I roll my eyes, giving him a smirk.

Stepping back, he grabs the box from where I placed it on the chair after George and Lee spun me around, and pulls out the ring.
