Invitation Only ~ Fred Weasley

FIFTYTWO

The rays of sunlight broke into the crack of the open tent wall and illuminated the insides of their little den. It was well past noon when Viola woke up in the arms of Fred Weasley. For a second she forgot all of the events that led up to this night and when the memory of it all came back, her lips broke into a big smile. They were lying in the same position as they fell asleep. Spooning. Fred was behind her and still had his arms strongly wrapped around her. But he wasn't letting out that light and peaceful snore that indicated that he was sleeping.

"Morning." Viola said drowsy as she turned around in his arms to face him. There he was, widely smiling.

"Morning, beautiful." He said with his sexy raspy morning voice. "Although I don't think it's morning anymore."

Viola chuckled lightly and snuggled into Fred's chest and he gave her a gentle squeeze. The faint voices of chattering murmur started to reach Viola's ear and she realised that the grounds of the Burrow was still homing guests. She bent her head up to Fred's chin and kissed it quickly.

"Let's get up." She said and released herself from Fred's grip and rose from the mattress on the floor. Fred groaned and buried his face in the pillow.

"Come on, handsome, the house is still full of guests." Viola said encouraging as she grabbed Fred's jumper and sweatpants and pulled into them.

"What about a little round of morning sex?" Fred asked suggestively and winked at her as soon as he rose his head from his pillow. Viola chuckled and bent down to place a kiss on his lips.

"We have plenty of time for that." She said, still with her head close to his. "Tell you what, you get up now and then you can do anything you want with me tonight?"

"Anything?" Fred whispered and now smiled his devious smirk.

"No boundaries, Fred Weasley." Viola said seductively and as soon as she finished that word, Fred quickly jumped out of the bed and began dressing himself, leaving Viola laughing at him.

When they exited the tent and began moving towards the Burrow, they found that the big party tent was gone, but a very long table was placed in their yard with guests all around it, enjoying lunch.

"Welcome to the surface!" Ron yelled from the edge of the table and gave them both a wide grin as Fred let out a big yawn.

"Are we the last up?" Fred asked and Ron shook his head. "No, Harry's still sleeping, but he also needs it the most. I mean, he literally died yesterday." Ron joked and people around him participated in the laughter.

It was way into the day before the guests started breaking up and people went home. Viola said goodbye and thanks to Bill and Fleur, who told her that she should better come visit them more often.

"So, Freddie, do you wanna go home?" George asked as they sat around the table for dinner. They were eating the left overs from the party and it was only the Weasley's left and Harry. Hermione had decided to go track down her parents and lift the oblivion curse. But as soon as she had succeeded, she would be right back.

"Yeah." Fred said in relief and squinted at his mother who were weirdly silent.

"Molly?" Viola asked who had been keeping an eye on her for a while. She looked up at forced a smile. "What's the matter?"

"Oh, nothing, dear." Molly said sweetly and took a sip of her wine. Viola raised her eyebrows and everyone else fell silent as they also watched her slowly losing her forced smile.
