"George, where are you taking me?" George blindfolded me once Draco and Astoria headed back home, then he apparated the two of us away somewhere. He's carefully leading me through some street somewhere in the world.

"It's a surprise darling," George says to me. "We're nearly there."

He kisses my hand as we walk which gives me butterflies. Then we stop. I can hear him fumbling with a key ring, a lock click, a door swing open and chimes. He guides me, I assume through the door that he just opened. The door swinging closed behind us.

"Alright, you ready?" He whispers into my ear. It sends shivers all down my spine.

"Do I have a choice?" I whisper back to him.

He laughs and fumbles with the knot in the blindfold. It falls down around my neck and I gasp. We're inside the joke shop Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes. I step forward a bit and spin around slowly, looking at everything. It looks just as it did when I first saw it, just covered in a thick layer of dust. The floorboards creak underneath my feet. I turn back around to look at George. He's got tears in his eyes, happy tears.

"What're we doing here?" I say softly.

George smiles, "I want to open up the shop again."

I walk back to him and wrap my arms around his neck, "You're serious?"

He puts his hands on the small of my back, "Yeah, very serious. I want to open it up again, move out of my parents house. Start my life up again."

"I think it's a fantastic idea darling. I love it." I whisper.

George smiles really big, "Good because I want you here with me. I want to run the shop with you as my wife."

Shivers, butterflies, goosebumps, the whole works. George lets go of me and gets down on one knee. He pulls out a small leather box and pops it open. Inside is a beautiful black ring. A black diamond sits perfectly inside a perfectly constructed rose shape in the middle of it.

"We met when we were eleven, and that first day when I helped you into that boat to cross the lake and get sorted I was smitten. And it only grew more and more since then. We've survived everything. The chamber of secrets, several crazy professors, a fucking war, and I want to survive everything else life throws at me with you by my side. I've loved you for more than half my life at this point and I know that I'll love you for the rest of it." George takes a shaky breath and smiles up at me. I've got tears falling down my face and I know I look like a complete mess right now, "Also its called Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes, plural, so I'm going to need a business partner. So what do you say hmm? Be my wife?"

"You're such a fucking moron." I say laughing and crying all at the same time.

George smiles at me, he's got tears falling down his face too, "Would you say yes already my knee hurts."

I laugh and nod my head a bunch, "You've only been hinting at it for months now George. Course I'll marry you!" I fall to my knees and kiss him. Both of us are crying and giggling the entire time.

George stands up and helps me get up too, he pulls the ring out of the box and slips it onto my finger, "Promise me you'll wear both of them? Both rings?" He says, tears still falling down his cheeks.

"Course darling. I love you." I whisper. I put my hand on his cheek and brush his tears away with my thumb.

"I love you too." He says smiling. He pulls me in for a hug and sighs, "Ron's gonna help in the shop too. We've been talking about it for a while, he hates being an Auror and it would be nice to run this place with my brother again... my brother and my smoking hot wife."
