An Affair to Remember (Fred Weasley)

5) Grape

--

Adrienne's nap hadn't lasted very long as she had woken up startled due to an odd dream. When she awoke, she saw Fred still sitting at the kitchen counter, a parchment and a bowl resting in front of him.

"How long have I been out for?" Adrienne asked groggily, she felt her mouth feel dry so she quickly used a mouth-freshening charm on herself.

"Twenty minutes I think"

Adrienne got up from the sofa and made her way to the kitchen to grab a glass of water.

"You want a grape?" Fred asked as Adrienne downed her glass. She eyes the bowl of grapes lying next to Fred suspiciously.

"How do I know you haven't spiked them with anything?"

"You don't, you eat them and find out" Fred smiled.

Adrienne sat next to him at the counter, turning so that she was facing him.

"You eat one first then"

Fred picked up a grape from the bowl and ate it without hesitation. She waited to see if anything happened but nothing ever did.

"If there really is something in the grapes I promise you won't live to see another day" Adrienne said before eating one too. Fortunately, the grapes really weren't spiked.

"See? I told you, you've got to learn to trust people more" he chuckled.

"How can I when it's you who I have to trust?" Adrienne said, eating another grape.

Fred rested his hands dramatically on his heart before smiling and getting back to scribbling on his piece of parchment. Adrienne picked up a random magazine from the counter and began to read it, the both of them absentmindedly eating grapes as they focused on their occupations.

A few minutes later, both of their hands collided as they reached for the last grape at the same time. Fred and Adrienne looked at each other.

"You can have it" said Adrienne, pulling her hand away.

"No you take it" Fred said, pushing the bowl to her.

"No Fred I want you to have it"

"Alright fine we can just halve it" Fred suggested.

'Halve a grape? How do you plan on doing that?" Adrienne laughed.

Fred thought for a few moments before an idea crossed his mind.

"It's the only way, a knife would ruin the fruit because it's too tiny" Fred murmured, picking up the grape between his fingers. He turned to face her.

"May I?"

"May you what?"

He moved slightly closer to her before pressing the grape on to her lips.

"Don't take in the whole thing, just the tip" Fred said, concentrating on her face.

"That's what she said" Adrienne smirked before parting her lips slightly and letting Fred push just the tip of it into her mouth. She closed her lips around it, the other end of it sticking out of her mouth. She giggled, and so did Fred the both of them thinking it was quite silly.

The lodge was slightly dark as none of the lights had been switched on and the sun had hidden behind the clouds, giving it a drowsy, honey-like atmosphere.

Adrienne bit on her end of the grape, chewing and swallowing it as Fred ate the other half, the both of them trying to control their laughter. "Can't believe we just split a grape" Adrienne rolled her eyes. While she was chewing, she unintentionally got some of the grape juice on her lip and Fred immediately noticed.

"You've got grape juice on your lip" Fred murmured. Adrienne licked her upper lip but Fred shook his head, "No, over here" he said, resting his hand on her cheek, his thumb lightly touching her lower lip. Adrienne immediately felt shivers run up and down her spine, her face warming up from the contact. She couldn't control herself.

"Get it off for me" she murmured back. He knew exactly what she was asking for.

And he didn't hesitate. He leaned in closer before sticking his tongue out. He ran it over her bottom lip, getting the juice off of it, feeling the sweetness of it on his tongue. And then it was her, his mind clouded with only her and the feeling of her against him. He pulled her bottom lip between his teeth and sucked on it, causing Adrienne to whimper slightly.

Fred pulled away, a dazed expression on his face. But they had had a taste of each other once, and they couldn't stop themselves from doing it again.

Adrienne leaned over and pressed her lips on to his. Fred rested his hands on her cheeks, the tips of his fingers tangling between her hair as he tilted his head to deepen the kiss. They could taste the grape on each other. Fred bit her bottom lip once more, causing Adrianne to part her lips in a moan. He seized the opportunity and slid his tongue inside her mouth.

He ran his hands from her face, down her neck and sides before lightly clutching her hips to pull her on to himself. Without breaking away from the kiss, Adrianne moved to Fred's lap, straddling him as her arms wrapped around his neck.

Fred slid his hands under her t-shirt and rested them on her waist, Adrienne shivered at the feeling of his warm, large hands on her skin and moaned once more. Fred massaged her tongue with his, exploring her mouth.

Suddenly, Adrienne pulled away.

This was wrong, very wrong.

"Did I do something?" Fred asked breathlessly, confusion beginning to take over his features.

Adrienne got off from Fred's lap, feeling slightly shocked at herself.

"N-no, I just remembered I had something to do" she said, not looking at Fred.

"Adrienne what's wrong?" Fred asked, getting up from his seat.

"I said it's nothing, I'll see you later" she said before rushing to her bedroom without another look at him.

How could she have done this? How could she have forgotten him so easily.

"Fuck fuck fuck this is bad" Adrienne paced around the room, her hands in her hair.

It truly was quite a bad situation, because if her husband found out about her kiss with Fred, what would he say?
