I crept upstairs knowing that he would be there, just like he always had been. I opened the door slowly, and I saw him sitting there, the sun shining on his bright red hair as he turned to face me. His face lit up and he smiled at me. I ran to him, feeling his arms wrapping tightly around me, knowing that I was safe, and always would be around him. He was my guardian angel, my secret lover. We kept our love a secret, but we knew it was forever. I sighed contentedly, the words escaping my lips right before we kissed, "I love you Fred."

I heard soft footsteps on the stairs, and I knew he was coming.We had met every day at the exact time for the past five years. We never needed to tell eachother where to go, because we always knew. He opened the door and I saw his nose scrunch up in a smile. A smile that I could never get tired of, a smile almost identical to my own. I wrapped my arms around him, trying to convey all my feelings in that one simple gesture. I needed him to know how much I loved him, and that I would protect him. Our love was taboo, forbidden, but that didn't stop us. We took it as a challenge. I leaned forward to kiss him and whispered softly, "I love you George."

It was our secret, that was the way it had always been and would always be. I stared down at his lifeless face, and even knowing he had died how he wanted to, I couldn't help but cry. I knew things would never be the same. How could they be when half of me was gone.

Fred had asked in his will not to be buried without me, so he was placed under stasis charms in a private room at the ministry. I knew what I had to do, and I wasn't going to let Fred down.

I threw myself into hunting Death Eaters down. I had to be useful. Everytime I stopped, I thought about how things should have been . I had to take Dreamless Sleep potions every night just to keep the pain away. Finally, 2 months after Fred died, the last Death Eater was caught and sent to Azkaban.

That day, right after the trial, I went to the room where Fred's body was. "We did it. It's finally over. Now we can be together."

I laid down beside my twin and raised my wand to my head, a smile on my lips. "Avada Kedvra." As I uttered those words, I felt my brother's presence and a great sense of calm and peace. We were together again, this time, forever.
