I wake up in a room at St. Mungo's. Fear strikes through me as I remember what happened. A healer walks in with a smile. "You're awake I see." She says. I nod. "How long have I been out?" I ask. "Two days. There's an awful lot of people to see you. I'll send them in a few at a time." She says with a smile. First, my parents come in. They all hug me and say they're glad I'm okay, and that the aurors will find who did it. Next, Ginny and Harry come in. Harry hugs me, and tells me he's sorry he couldn't protect me. I tell him it's okay, and that it wasn't his fault. Lastly, Fred and George come in. While Fred comes and stands by my bed, George stands awkwardly behind him, not meeting my eyes. "I'm sorry this happened." He says. "It's not your fault." I say. "It is! I was supposed to watch out for you!" He replies. "I'm fine." I say. He nods. After talking for another minute, Fred says, "I'll leave you two to talk. Bye Bells." And he walks out. "So have you come to dump me then?" I ask. George shakes his head. "Course I haven't." He says, coming to stand by my bed. "I'm sorry." He says. "I'm so sorry. I shouldn't have been mad Bells. It was so awful listening to your screams and I love you and I'm sorry." He says. I take his hand in mine. "I'm sorry too. I should've written. I was just so worried about Harry during Hogwarts. You're right, I'm stubborn and loud." I say. George leans down so our noses are almost touching. "Don't ever tell me that. I was angry, and there is nothing wrong with you. Never change anything." He says. I close the distance between us and kiss him. George kisses me carefully, as if afraid I'll break. "I love you." I say. "I love you more." He says. St. Mungo's keeps me for an entire week before letting me go home. My parents are extremely protective after I get home, so I'm only allowed to go to the Burrow unless someone comes with me. I spend a lot of time with the twins, and sometimes George and I sneak to the treehouse to just talk and joke around. Soon however, it's time to go back to Hogwarts. At the feast, Dumbledore announces that quidditch will not take place, but that another event will. Different schools will come, and one person above seventeen from each school will compete in tasks throughout the year. They'll arrive on October thirtieth. I'm finally allowed to go to Hogsmede, and George insists on taking me on a date the first Hogsmede weekend. I have no clue what to wear, so I decide to ask my roommates, even though we don't talk much. "Allie, Lila, Alicia! What do I wear on a date?" I ask. They all bolt up from their beds. "Date you say?" Alicia asks. They all start digging through my trunk. "Every boy will drool over you, making your date jealous." Allie says. "This shirt is perfect!" Lila says. "With these shorts!" Alicia adds. I've never really had girlfriends, but maybe I should spend time with my roommates.

They curl my hair, do my makeup, and give me pointers. Finally, it's twelve o'clock, and time for my date. I walk into the entrance hall to see George talking to Fred and Angelina. Angelina must be Fred's date. Fred sees me first, and he says something to George who turns towards me. I look back at my roommates, who are mouthing at me to look around. A lot of boys are staring at me, and their dates are glaring. When I get to Fred and George, George wraps his arm around me and pulls me closer to him, glaring at all the staring boys. "You look amazing." He says as we walk to Hogsmede. "Thanks." I blush. "All the boys were staring, had to make sure they knew you were mine and nobody else's." He winks. "Is somebody jealous?" I tease. "Very." He jokes back. "Well don't be. I love you, and only you." I reply. "I love you." He says, leaning closer and closer, right before our lips touch, Fred walks between us. "Oh, sorry. Am I interrupting something?" He asks. "Get lost Fred." George says, leaning closer again. "No can do, Georgie. Have to be back at the school for dinner." Fred says. Grumbling, George wraps an arm around my waist, leading the way. Finally, we get two butterbeers to go and walk around the town. "There's places that are packed, and then there are deserted places." George says. "They should put something fun here." I say. "Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes!" George exclaims. I laugh. "You could." Then I sigh and lay my head on his shoulder. "Wish you would've kissed me back there." I say. "I don't see anyone around now." George says with a smile. He pulls me into an alley and looks around. "Still nobody." He says. He leans down towards me as I lean up, and our lips meet softly. George's lips are feather soft against mine. I wrap my arms around his neck, pulling him as close as possible. He wraps his arms around my waist, pushing me against the wall. His lips press harder against mine. I knot my fingers in his hair. Finally, I need to breathe. I pull away, and he rests his forehead on mine. "Are you sure you've never snogged anyone before?" He asks, breathing as heavily as I am. "Just you." I reply, pecking his lips. "You're so beautiful." George says a minute later, as we're sitting in the woods. "I wish you wouldn't say that." I blush. "Why not? It's true." He replies. "It's a matter of opinion." I say. "No. You're beautiful, and I'm so lucky you're mine." He says. I lean my head up and kiss him for a moment, which he happily returns.
