Author's note

I do not own Harry Potter, sorry to say but I don't. This is my first Fred Hermione fiction, please review!

Hermione's POV


The post came especially late this morning. I was sitting with the Weasley family after just finished breakfast. It had been a year and a half since the defeat of Voldemort Ever since that night I have been staying at the Burrow with Mr. and Mrs. Weasley, Ron, Ginny, and Harry. Fred and George are here all of the time they should just as well live here. Life was going great; I had no job yet giving myself time to live my life. Occasionally I would help the twins out when they needed help around the shop.

"Ah it seems the post finally comes-" Fred exclaimed excitedly.

"-we were waiting on our package-"

"-these should be interesting—"

"-to say the least dear brother" Fred and George exchanged.

Molly interrupted. "Boys that will be enough!"

"Of course mother!"

I had grabbed the post to realize that we all had a letter that looked extremely similar. I handed them out then sat down to read mine.

"They can't do this! Can they? There's no way!" Ginny screamed. I skimmed the letter to see what got her so excited. A marriage law, how could they! We just got out of a war and now they are forcing us to marry.

"I'm afraid they can Ginny" I said sadly.

"What are the regulations Hermione?" Molly asked me.

"We have until the 6th of March to marry the match we have been given, a year to produce a child, and if we are currently in a relationship we are able to appeal to the ministry, if we have not been paired with them" I looked towards Ron, he looked away sadly, "if failure to do so it results in a loss of magic, and Azkaban."

She looked worried but quickly changed to a happy smile trying to look excited about the situation. "Well let's see then, who have you all got!"

"I've got Harry!" Ginny wrapped her arms around Harry's neck kissing him quickly on the lips.

"I've got Angelina!" George exclaimed happy to get his current girlfriend.

"I've got" Ron looked at me worried, he read his card and got a quick smile, butterflies started to flutter in my stomach, we would be married and have children, this would be great "Lavender Brown." Maybe it wouldn't. How could this happen. How are Ron and I not together? This can't happen to me, what if I'm matched with Malfoy.

"Well you two can always appeal to the ministry, can't you?" Ginny hoped. We looked at Ron with a hopeful look.

"I don't think I want to appeal." I don't know what else happened, my eyes teared over and the last thing I saw at the Burrow was Fred and George jumping on a very surprised Ron before I apparated away.
