Title: Together
This is a part 2 for Smugglers!
Somewhere in Romania. July, 1994
Charlie Weasley, renowned Dragonologist and a man known for actively adoring his long-term girlfriend, Master Curse-Breaker (Y/N) (L/N).Â
The months after smuggling Norbert, now Norberta, out of Hogwarts were spent in Romania as Charlie and (Y/N) took care of the various species of Dragons in a secluded area protected by magic. The pair was currently celebrating their eight year anniversary by helping a very angry Peruvian Vipertooth go through labor. Peruvian Vipertooths are highly venomous so guiding it through labor was no simple task. After several hours, the Vipertooth had finally finished laying her eggs and had calmed down sufficiently for the couple to return to their temporary home on the Romanian Dragon Sanctuary.Â
â(Y/N)â Charlie called softly as his girlfriend walked over to the bathroom, âLet me help youâ He said, walking over to wrap his arms around her, âItâs our anniversary and instead of having a romantic dinner, we helped a Dragon lay her eggsâ He muttered, moving a strand of her (H/C) hair from her forehead.
(Y/N) smiled and pressed a kiss against his freckled nose, âCharlie, just being with you is fineâ She stated, pulling him into the bathroom, âBut if you want to helpâ She grinned, locking their bathroom door, âHelp me take a bath, Iâm bloody tiredâ
Charlie smirked and pulled his shirt off revealing his muscular yet scarred chest, âYour wish is my command, loveâ He grinned, grabbing the hem of (Y/N)âs shirt and pealing it off her body.Â
(Y/N) and Charlie spent a little over an hour in the bath, happily washing each otherâs hair and just running their hands over each otherâs bodies.Â
After their bath, the pair snuggled up on their plush bed with Charlie holding (Y/N) against his bare chest. Charlie smiled as he played with (Y/N)âs hair as her soft breath hit his chest, âI canât for you to be Mrs. Charlie Weasleyâ He spoke absentmindedly, knowing she couldnât hear him. The dayâs events has definitely tired her out and as soon as Charlie had her arms around her, she knocked out.Â
With a sigh, Charlieâs eyes trailed towards the letter sitting on her nightstand with their names neatly written over the front. After placing a kiss against (Y/N)âs forehead, Charlie finally drifted to sleep.Â
The letter addressed to them came from Charlieâs doting parents, Molly and Arthur Weasley requesting their presence for a very eventful family get-together
Dear, Charlie and (Y/N),
Arthur has obtained Quidditch World Cup tickets for the entire family and your friends! Iâve contacted your friends from Hogwarts and let them know weâre all attending so you two must come!
Iâve received confirmation from Penny, Rowan, Tulip, Merula, Ben, Barnaby, and Andre so itâs a chance for all of you to see each other again.Â
I hope to see the two of you in August!
With Love,
Molly WeasleyÂ
The Burrow. August, 1994
Charlie and (Y/N) had arrived at his family home a week before the Final Quidditch World Cup game. During their time there, (Y/N) had grown even closer to Molly Weasley, helping her with cooking and cleaning around the house, but simultaneously assisting Arthur with any sudden repairs.Â
Inside the house, Fred and George were keen on teasing (Y/N) about Charlie, but it was something she was used to and found amusing
âRemember, Freddieâ (Y/N) teased, âWhen you get a girlfriend, Iâll be teasing youâ She warned and George began to laugh
âFred? A girlfriend?â He exclaimed, âIn a million years!â Before he could continue his joking, Fredâs elbow came in contact with Georgeâs side. Outside, however, Ronald, Charlie, Harry, and Bill were playing a friendly game of Quidditch while Ginny and Percy watched from the ground.Â
However, Percy wasnât necessarily watching, he was reading a book on counter spells while his younger sister paid extra close attention to what the boys in the air were doing.Â
Bill enjoyed the game, but he was keeping an eye on Charlie, who seemed to be in his own little world. Charlie, unfortunately for him, was knocked out of his trance when a bludger knocked him off his broom. Luckily, Bill swooped down and caught Charlie right before he hit the ground, setting him down on the bright green grass.
âWhatâs up with ya?â Bill asked, hoping off his broom. Once settled, he noticed a small black box against the grass. Squinting, he picked up the box and Charlie scrambled to take it back.Â
âGive it!â He exclaimed, but Bill held him away until he finally opened the box. His eyes widened when he realized it was a rather expensive looking ring, âWilliam!â Charlie yelled, snatching the box from his brotherâs hands and shoving it in his pocket.Â
âBloody hell!â Bill shouted, âYouâre proposing?!â Despite Charlieâs constant shushing, Billâs excitement got the best of him alerting his youngest brother and his best friend much to Charlieâs dismay.Â
Ron couldnât believe his ears. He walked over to his brother, mouth agape, and looked around before whispering, âYouâre proposing to (Y/N)?! Since when?!âÂ
Charlieâs blush took up most of his freckled face, âBe quiet you arse-hats!â He muttered, âSince a couple months ago, I just havenât found the right timeâ He admitted and Harry walked over to him with a small smile
âHow bout at the game?â Harry suggested, âThe whole family will be there and Iâm sure Mrs. Weasley wouldnât want to miss itâÂ
Charlie was dumbfounded. Of course! The Quidditch game was the perfect way to propose! They would be surrounded by their friends and family, what a perfect occasion.Â
August 18th, 1994. Quidditch World Cup
The morning of the game, Charlie and (Y/N) were up at five in the morning, preparing for the day. Charlie was packing their bags as (Y/N) took a warm shower, but as each minute passed by, Charlie grew even more nervous. Today was the day Charlie will be proposing to (Y/N) in front of all his family and friends.Â
Even after the Cursed Vaults, the venomous and deadly creatures he had worked with could not prepare him for the nerve-wrecking task of proposing to his girlfriend. Holding the box in his hand, Charlie let out a sigh and placed it inside his pocket for safe-keeping and easy access.Â
(Y/N) walked into their room with a towel wrapped around her and another wrapped around her hair, âHey, loveâ She greeted as she picked her outfit from off the bed, âAre you okay? You look rather paleâ She stated, placing a hand over his forehead to make sure he didnât have a temperature.Â
âY-yes, darlingâ He smiled, âIâm perfectly fineâ He reassured, placing a kiss against her forehead, âYou better get dressed, weâre departing soonâ He stated, putting the last of their belongings into their bags.
Hermione had woken up Harry and Ron, but she still roamed around the house attempting to help Mrs. Weasley with everything she could. After about an hour, Arthur Weasley called for everyone and the group headed out to the meeting place within the forest.
(Y/N) leaned over to her boyfriend. âWhy are all meeting places inside a forest?â she smirked, sliding her hand into Charlieâs, holding it tightly. Charlie chuckled and gave a shrug in response
âBecause theyâre dark and secludedâ Charlie whispered into her ear, placing a kiss against it, clearly sneaking an innuendo in his words. (Y/N) giggled, throwing Charlie a subtle wink, but of course, one of his many brothers happened to be paying attention.
âYâknow, Georgieâ Fred started, âI heard Charlie and (Y/N) had some fun times in the forbidden forestâ He grinned, speaking loud enough for the couple to hear.
âReally, Fred?â George played along, subtly glancing back at their older brother, smirks on both their faces. Charlie furrowed his eyebrows, reaching into his pocket for his wand.
âWatch thisâ He whispered, aiming his wand at his twin brothers. Before Fred could continue his teasing, Charlie uttered out, âJellylegs Jinxâ and his twin brothers fell forward onto the pile of leaves.
âCharlie!â Fred exclaimed as Ron and Harry bursted out into fits of laughter. Bill looked back and saw his brothers in a pile of leaves, letting out a sigh, he uttered the counter-spell and the two were up and at em. Turning around with a smile, Bill followed behind his Father and the rest of the group kept making jokes and singing songs with each other until they met up with the Diggorys.
They introduced themselves respectively and after Mr. Diggory fawning over Harry, they were on their way to the port-key which happened to be an old boot.Â
Most of them had already traveled by port-key before, but for the younger kids, it was their first time utilizing this method of travel. Grabbing the old boot at once, they were all transported to the field where the game was being held.Â
Once they arrived, Arthur set up their enchanted tent and everyone went inside. Everyone except for (Y/N) and Charlie, who were waiting for their friends to come around.Â
âCharlie!â Ben exclaimed, leading the group to where the couple was standing, âYou guys are finally here!â Ben hugged both of them, letting the others say their greetings. The girls quickly pulled (Y/N) into the tent, gossiping and discussing their latest adventures.Â
Andre Egwu placed a hand on Charlieâs shoulder, âDid you do it yet?â He asked. Unbeknownst to the others, Andre knew about the proposal and he even helped Charlie obtain a ring because all the ones he looked at ran rather expensive, more than the poor Weasley family could afford. The night of Norbertaâs smuggle, a very drunk Charlie had spoken to his dear friend Andre about proposing to (Y/N), but the next day when Andre mentioned his request, Charlie did not remember anything he had said.Â
Andre, being the great friend he was, told Charlie not to worry about it and that he would take care for everything he asked for the night before. Despite Charlieâs protests, Andre purchased the ring Charlie had been eyeing for the past five months and handed it to him so he could finally propose to his girlfriend.Â
Charlie, being as stubborn as he was, began paying Andre back for the ring, but Andre would always refuse the sickles, knuts, and galleons Charlie would offer, reassuring Charlie that he wanted to help him out no matter what it took.Â
Charlie finally gave in, thanking Andre for what he had done and kept the ring safe and more importantly, out of (Y/N)âs sight.Â
âDo what?â Barnaby asked, crossing his arms and Charlie smiled sheepishly, pulling the black box from his pocket. Ben let out a small gasp and Barnabyâs eyes widened, âYouâre proposing?!â Barnaby shouted, but Ben quickly shushed him.
âYes, Barnaby!â Charlie exclaimed, âBut Iâm bloody nervous! What if she says no?!â
Andre rolled his eyes and smacked Charlie upside the head, âAre you mad? Sheâd never say no!âÂ
While the boys reassured Charlie outside, Tulip had grabbed (Y/N)âs hand, quickly examining it, âHe hasnât proposed yetâ She groaned and Merula rolled her eyes.Â
âMaybe if I have a talk with him, heâll finally do itâ Merula stated, crossing her arms and Penny shook her head at that threat sounding statement.Â
âHeâll do it when heâs readyâ Penny smiled, placing her hand on (Y/N)âs shoulder, âIâm sure (Y/N) is happy with him either way, something like marriage shouldnât be rushedâÂ
(Y/N) smiled at Pennyâs words, âPennyâs right, I know you lot have been waiting for this practically from the beginning of our relationship and itâs not like I donât want to marry him, but everything is hectic right now so Iâm not even sure marriage is in his head right nowâ
Rowan let out a sigh, âThis is Charlie weâre talking about, Iâm sure heâs always thinking about marrying you, but heâs just too nervous to askâÂ
Before their conversation could continue, Arthur called everyone out for the game which would begin in about twenty minutes and maneuvering through the large crowds would take a couple of minutes.Â
Once in their seats, Charlie took (Y/N)âs hand nervously and it immediately became sweaty against hers. Charlie removed his hand and shot her a sheepish smile, âSorryâ He muttered and she shook her head, taking his calloused hand in hers againÂ
âCharlie, weâve been together for eight years, sweat doesnât bother meâ She stated happily. Their friends were standing behind them with Andre, Ben, and Barnaby watching intently. Tulip and Merula noticed their gazes, the two girls looked at each other and back at the boys.Â
Clearing her throat, Tulip got Benâs attention and she shot him a smile, âSo, whatâs up with you three?â She asked with Merula actively listening in order to get information out of Ben. Although he had shed most of his insecurities, Ben still felt somewhat uneasy around Tulip and Merula so he felt obligated to tell them
Ben leaned in, âCharlieâs proposing, but donât say anythingâ He whispered and before Tulip could scream, Merula slapped a hand over her mouth and told her to keep quiet.
Amos Diggory, Bill, Molly and Arthur Weasley sat on Charlieâs right side, Percy and Ginny were on (Y/N)âs left, and Cedric, Harry, Ron, and Hermione were on the very top row, behind the group that found the Cursed Vaults. Harry and Ron were also keeping a close eye on Charlie since the two were aware he would be proposing at any moment.Â
The players began flying onto the field and everyone began to cheer. Well, everyone except for Charlie whoâs nerves were consuming him. Suddenly, the whistle blew and the players began to whiz by, the game had commenced.Â
However, the whistle had frightened Charlie and he jumped, clutching his pocket in order to protect the box. (Y/N) noticed his uneasiness and glanced over at him with a worried look, âCharlie?â (Y/N) called and Charlie gulped, his palms growing sweatier by the moment.Â
âDarling, whatâs wrong?â She asked, speaking loud enough for him to hear. Closing his eyes for a moment, he took a deep breath before turning to face her, âCharlie?â
Harry began to slap Ron on the arm as he subtly pointed at his older brother who was now nervously facing his girlfriend, âRon! Look!â Harry exclaimed, catching Hermioneâs attention as well.
âListen, (Y/N)â Charlie started, âIâm not quite sure how to say thisâ He muttered and she looked up at him with a questioning look. The crowds kept getting louder and louder by the moment and it was growing harder for Charlie to speak his mind. However, Bill had noticed what Charlie was attempting to do and gave him a subtle reassuring nudge.Â
âListen, weâve been together for a long timeâŚâ Charlie said, grabbing one of her hands with a sheepish smile
âYes, we haveâ (Y/N) smiled, âCharlie, just say what you want to say, Iâm listeningâ She said, obviously not catching on to his intentions. Rowan, however, glanced over at the two of them and noticed how Charlieâs other hand was in his pocket. The nervous expression, the hand in the pocket, and the inability to get his words out, Rowan caught on before her best friend and she wasnât even being proposed to!Â
âOh, Merlinâ Rowan whispered and grabbed Penny by the arm, telling her to look at the couple. Charlie took another deep breath and furrowed his eyebrows, âDammit! What Iâm trying to say is that Iâm bloody in love with you and I want to spend the rest of my life exploring with you and just being with you!âÂ
(Y/N)âs eyes widened, âCharlieâ She muttered and at this point, the two had caught the attention of their friends and family, except for Charlieâs parents, Ginny, and Percy who were invested in the game.Â
As Charlie pulled the box out of his pocket, he began bending down on one knee. (Y/N) covered her mouth and tears began prickling at the corners of her eyes. Charlie slowly open the box to reveal a glittering silver ring with a small diamond in the middle, â(Y/N) (L/N), curse breaker extrodinare,â He started, "Would you make me the happiest bloke on earth and will you give me the honor and the joy of being your husband?â Charlie asked with a large grin.Â
Bill nudged his Mother in order to get her to turn her head towards Charlieâs direction and instead of reprimanding her eldest son, she noticed her second-born on one knee in front of his girlfriend, âArthur!â She called, âArthur, look!â She exclaimed happily, pointing at the scene next to them.Â
Tulip began to cheer happily and so did the rest of their friends, Ron couldnât believe Charlie had actually done it and Hermione almost cried out of happiness. Ginny heard her mother screaming and turned to see Charlie proposing to his long-term girlfriend. Ginny pulled of Percyâs suit coat and forced him to turn, his eyes widening at his brother.
âBloody Hellâ Fred and George said simultaneously, cheering their nervous brother on.Â
(Y/N) began to cry as Charlie held the ring in front of her. Violently nodding, she wiped her tears away, âYes! Of course Iâll marry you!â She exclaimed and Charlieâs smile somehow grew wider. Slipping the ring onto her finger, Charlie grabbed (Y/N) and kissed held deeply, holding her tightly against his body.Â
Andre was patting Charlie on the back as Ben and Barnaby clapped in congratulations, the girls minus Merula were screaming and crying out of happiness, but although she wasnât screaming, Merula was still excited to see her friends engaged. The Weasleys were ecstatic, but no one could top Molly Weasley, who was now crying, holding Charlie tightly
âOh, my boy!â She cried. running her hands through his bright hair, âI always thought Bill would get engaged first, but I was wrong, oh Iâm so happy!â
Admiring the ring, (Y/N) looked up at Charlie âI love you so muchâ (Y/N) said, leaning up to kiss her now fianceĂŠ. Charlie smiled into the kiss and took a hold of her hand
âI love you moreâ He stated and wrapped his arm around her waist as they all turned their attention back to the game. Ireland won the Quidditch World Cup and the group moved to celebrate the victory, Victor Krumâs catch, and, of course, Charlie and (Y/N)âs engagement.Â
But, their celebration was short-lived. Suddenly, a riot sparked and Arthur noticed the Death Eaters apparating and disapparating, stunning and casting the killing curse on the crowd. Among the chaos, the group split up. (Y/N) ended up by herself while Charlie frantically looked for her while simultaneously protecting his younger siblings.Â
A Death Eater had aimed his wand at (Y/N), but she wasnât about to go down without a fight, âBombarda Maxima!â (Y/N) shouted, sending a hoard of Death Eaters flying away with the explosion. On the other side, Merula and Penny were fighting off Death Eaters with ease. Barnaby and Ben were nearby, moving lost children to safe spaces while fighting off more Death Eaters.Â
Suddenly, all the Death Eaters disapparated and the Dark Mark appeared against the dark sky.Â
Charlie looked up and ran through the crowds, yelling for his fianceĂŠ, â(Y/N)!â He yelled, pushing through all the wizards and witches, â(Y/N)!â He was growing frustrated, he couldnât see her, he couldnât hear her, and he couldnât find her. Charlie refused to assume the worst, but he couldnât help scan the fallen bodies, hoping she wasnât among them.
âCharlie!â (Y/N) called and Charlie suddenly turned to see her standing a few feet away, âYouâre okay!â She exclaimed, running up to him and jumping into his arms.Â
âOh, Merlin!â Charlie cried, holding (Y/N)âs head against his chest, âYouâre okayâ He choked out, tears streaming down his face, âYouâre bloody okayâ Charlie grabbed her face and pressed a rough kiss against her lips. Once he pulled away, he pressed his forehead against herâs and let out cries of relief.
âIâm definitely not leaving you when we just got engagedâ (Y/N) joked, hugging Charlie tightly, âWeâre alright, everyoneâs alrightâ
Penny, Rowan, Merula, Tulip, Andre, Barnaby, and Ben had gathered where Charlie and (Y/N) were, making sure they were all safe. Together, they found the rest of the Weasleys along with Harry and Hermione. Everyone was shocked and nervous, but these events wouldnât stop them from celebrating the engagement when they returned to The Burrow.Â
The Wizarding World was currently under threat, but as long as they were together, everything would be perfectly fine. Â
