Love At First Sight?
Hello, my name is Fred Weasley!
I'm not one for telling stories, but, this is one story that I'll never forget. It's the story of how I met my beautiful wife Hermione and how I now have two gorgeous twin daughters. The story of my life!
I'd better start at the beginning, I was nineteen and one of the proud owners of Weasley Wizard Wheezes, a family run joke shop that my brother George and I founded. This summer was supposed to be like every other one, what with Ron, Harry and Hermione coming to The Burrow after their sixth year at Hogwarts. This story starts a week into the summer holidays, the I arrived home after a letter that put any ideas I had for the joke shop on hold for the next year;
Dear Mr Frederic Weasley,
After reviewing your current educational status, the committee and I have decided that to be accepted as a fully qualified wizard you must attend another year at Hogwarts School Of Witchcraft And Wizardry in which you will sit your N.E.W.T.S (Nastily Exhausting Wizarding Tests). You will receive your book and your equipment list in the weeks following the arrival of this letter. I hope you enjoy your final year at Hogwarts.
Yours sincerely,
Professor M. McGonagall,
Headmistress
Mum had decided that it would be best for me to 'stay at home' during the holidays so, she could make sure that I got everything sorted for school and actually turned up on the day! I feel sorry for others even now, because when they returned home from Hogsmeade the returned to a house from hell; mum and me were arguing again ! That's when I saw her, when she walked in I swear my heart skipped a beat; Hermione!
