Abbye's Point of View

The war with Voldermort is over; you think a girl would be happy wouldn't you? Well I'm more worried and anxious than anything. I was sitting in a St. Mungo's waiting room with one of my best friends, George Weasley. We were hoping and praying that Fred was okay. I'd never seen him so scared in his life. Oh, but there is more word has spread like wild fire that a marriage law has been announced and the ministry is matching people up as we sit here. The only way out of it is if you're engaged. Plus, my best friend Jocelyne is nowhere to be found. A mediwitch came into the room to talk to us.

"Fred is going to be fine." She smiled just a few injuries which can easily be cured. A second later Jocelyne burst into the room, ok two bad things crossed of the list. "Thank Merlin! I thought you were dead!"

"We're fine." George smiled and turned to the mediwitch, "Now can we go see Fred, please."

"Of course." She smiled, "Down the hall second door on the left." The next second we all jumped up and ran down the hall way. He jumped when the door swung open, George rushed in nearly in tears.

"Thank Merlin you aren't dead!" He exclaimed, hugging Fred tightly.

"Georgie, I'm fine." Fred snickered, "A wall isn't going to take a Weasley out."

"At least you still have your since of humor." I laughed, "I was afraid it might have gotten knocked out of you."

"Really Abbye?" He asked, "I think you must have gotten part of your brain knocked out."

"Oh, Fred there's something we need to tell you." George said suddenly.

"Yes." Fred asked suspiciously.

"They've already passed a marriage law and we're supposed to be getting our matches tonight."

"A marriage law? Why that of all things?" He asked bewildered.

"All the death these past few years." I explained, "They want to get the population back up."

"We're supposed to get our letters anytime." George said, "Anyone 17 and up is getting one."

Later that night after they had released Fred, the entire Weasley family plus Ron, Hermione, Harry, Jocelyne, and I were lounging around the living room at the burrow. When all of a sudden an owl came and dropped nine letters on the coffee table. Each one addressed to one of us except for Bill and Charlie who were already married. We each grabbed our letters that were sealing of our futures.

"Gin, you go first." Ron said, "Since you're the youngest."

Ginny rolled her eyes, and tore her letter open. She let out of a shriek of excitement!

"Gin who is it?" I asked, feeling happy for my best friends little sis.

"Harry!" She exclaimed, "its Harry!"

Harry ripped his letter open and scanned it as fast as he could confirming what Ginny said was true. He threw the letter aside and scooped Ginny up in his arms and kissed her. It was so cute. I wish I could have a romance like theirs-wait I'm getting off topic.

"Oi Ron, Hermione!" George yelled, "Open yours so we can open ours!"

"Give us a second!" They said together and tore open the letters. Just like I thought they were matched together. It was out turn next. We decided to open our letters together on the count of three.

"One." I said.

"Two." Jocelyne said.

"Three." The twins finished off the counting and we tore open the letters quickly. I read mine like lightning, but stopped short on my match, George Weasley…

"Well, who'd you get matched with?" Molly asked, "It can't be that bad."

George and my eyes locked on each other's.

"Abbye."

"George."

"Fred."

"Jocelyne."

"WHAT?" Molly gasped, "Abbye and George? Fred and Jocelyne?"

I was in too much of a trance to say anything, not believing what I just read. George and Fred handed Molly their letters so she could see them for herself. Everyone slipped out the room, making this moment even more awkward.

~George's Point of View~

Engaged to my best friend? This was going to be interesting. There was on small detail though, I'd fancied her four years. Since our 5th year at Hogwarts, and we'd been out of that place for two years now…

"Looks like Abbye and Jocelyne will finally get their wish." Fred grinned, we all looked slightly confused for a second. "They'll finally be actual sisters. Well sister- in- laws, but you know what I mean!"

Abbye let out a gasp, of worry.

"What's wrong?" I asked, normally I'd hug her when she's worried, but I don't know if that's smart right now..

"I picked up the letter again, on the back it says 'Must be married within 5 weeks.' Oh Merlin we missed another part too, everyone has to have at least one kid, right after they're married…"

That stopped me dead in my tracks. I figured we'd have to talk to them alone at some point.

"Abbye, would you come outside with me for a minute or two?" I asked, quickly. Merlin, I'd never, ever been nervous around her before.

"Sure." She smiled, and followed me outside to the porch swing.

"So what did you want to talk about?" She asked, shyly.

"I think you know."

"Oh, that." See my point she wasn't happy with this at all. "I'm sorry you got stuck with me."

Did she really just say that? There was no way I was 'stuck with her'. Even if there wasn't a marriage law, she'd still be the girl I'd want to marry.

"Abbye, I-" I started, but was cut off.

"George, Its been a long day. I'll talk to you tomorrow, and with that she took off for her and Jocelyne's shared room, upstairs. It was official Abbye was not happy about marrying me at all.

~Jocelyne's Point of View~

After having a small talk with Fred I dashed up to my room to find a sobbing Abbye.

"Abbs what's wrong?" I asked, sitting down on the bed and pulled my best friend into a hug.

"This stupid marriage law!" She cried, "That's what's wrong!"

"Abbs, you've liked George for along time how could this be bad?" I asked very confused.

"That's the thing!" She sobbed, "I'll be married to someone who will never feel the same way."

"Oh, Abbs." I sighed, "Don't say that. He'd be a bloody git not to feel the same way."

"Well he doesn't," She said, tears still falling. "I'm going to bed good night."

"Night Abbs." I whispered, and crawled into my own bed feeling the same way she did because I knew Fred didn't like me like I liked him..
