I opened my eyes to see that I was lying down on the floor on a towel. My leg burned from being hit with a stray spell. I heard footsteps and then I saw George sit down beside my towel. "Where's Fred?" I said, examining him. He was only silent, and he turned to look behind him, where Fred lay, silent and dead. "Oh my god… Fred..." I sat up, with aid from George, and cried into his shoulder. The pain in my leg only increased as I cried. I said Fred's name over and over again through my tears. I sniffed, taking a deep breath. He rubbed my hand, trying to comfort me. Mrs. Weasley came up to us. "How are you, Jackie?" She said in that motherly tone of hers that she managed to use even after one of her sons died. Her eyes were red with tears.
"Fine," I said quietly, looking at Fred's lifeless body; my boyfriend; Dead. My eyes stung from crying.
"Take care of her, George." She sighed, moving on.
Ron came into the great hall with Harry and Hermione, unaware of our recent loss. He spotted Fred's body and his smile instantly faded. "No, no, no!" He screamed, running to his side, crying. I buried my head in George's shoulder. He smelled faintly of apples. He rubbed my back and we remained there for what seemed like decades. The sorrow within me felt like it could rip the universe apart. I heard Ron crying for most of the time, and, at some point, I started to cry again. George just rubbed my back, and held me in his arms.
He cried silently too, shakily holding me in his arms. When I lost Oliver (who had broken up with me because he 'Loved Quidditch more than me,', as he put it), it had felt like the end of the world. But when I lost Fred, it felt like the end of the universe- the end of anything happy. George gave me a kiss on my forehead and pulled me closer.
George was there for me the whole time, and never left my side. I eventually fell asleep cradled in his arms, dreaming about me and Fred before the Battle. Before he left us all alone.
