George promised Fred he wouldn't cry. He promised that they would both make it out alive, no matter what. But seeing Fred's body laying on the ground tore his heart. The days of Fred and George were over, no more would there be two twins laughing. George knelt by his dead brother, shaking as tears flooded down his face. He placed a hand on Fred's heart, silently hoping that the twin would get up and scream "Surprise". But he knew that this wasn't one of Fred's jokes. The battle as won, the war ended. Peace settled in the castle, grieving soon overcoming the peace.

"Fr-Fred. Get up! Get up now!" Molly screamed at the dead boy, tears running down her face.

George looked at his mother, his eyes seeming dangerous, "Leave me alone. Leave me alone with him!"

Molly and the others backed away, all seeming to be surprised. The lone twin stared at Fred, hoping that Fred would be happy. Maybe Fred would be happier in heaven. The castle grew silent as George shook his brother. Tears streaming down onto the lifeless body of his brother.

"Fred! Come on mate! We still have pranks to do and plan!" George stammered, yelling at Fred.

Arthur guided George away from Fred, comforting his crying and trembling son. He slowly ran his hand through Georges hair. Resisting his own tears as the teen still needed someone strong there for him. This would be hard for them all. Now George was alone. He would have no twin to pull pranks, tease Ginny or even comfort him.

"George...It's alright...Come on, we need to go home." Arthur softly said after a few minutes.

George nodded slowly before disapperating and going straight to his room. The night was soon upon George as he laid in his own cold bed. A troubled look on his face, tossing and turning as he slept.


"Hey mate, lets make this through together," Fred grinned, holding Georges hand.

"Like everything we do," George grinned back.

Fred and George fought back to back. Fred glancing around and locking eyes with his brother. Giving a small nod as they hooked arms. After awhile they separated to get a better vantage point. Fred giving George a small nod as they walked together. A Death Eater yelled the killing curse, hitting Fred in the chest. A desperate look in Fred's eyes flashed before the boy fell to the ground. George running to aid him after killing the Death Eater.

"Fred! Get up!" George shook his brother, only to get a limp body in his arms.


George sat up in his bed, heavily breathing. Looking over to Fred's bed to find it empty he felt a lump in his throat. Tears running down his cheeks he got up out of bed. The moonlight lighting up the room. He sat at the desk he and Fred had set up for planning pranks. Clearing the parchments he pulled a blank one out. Dipping the quill in the black ink he began to write.

Dear Fred,

Hey, I keep thinking about you. Mum and Dad haven't talked about a funeral, Ginny is with Harry and Ron is with Hermione. I'm sitting in our room. I refuse to come out. I looked through your stuff, I know you hate that. But I couldn't help it. I'm still a Weasley... Well, half of what I was. My other half died with you. Or as I want to call it, went on a vacation with you. The room still has the cheerful feel. It's as if you're still here. I know you are, because I know you're too stubborn to fully leave me. In my heart you are with me. I will be with you soon. I promise to beat the hell out of Harry if he doesn't treat Ginny right. That was our agreement right? Anyways, I'm crying as I write this. I do hope you pull at least one prank on someone up there. Well you have Remus, Sirius and James. So... I know you will. Just keep an eye out for Lily and Tonks. Don't want to get you injured mate.

From your twin,

George.

George smiled slightly, wiping the remaining the tears off of his face. He placed the letter in an envelope and called his owl. The small owl entered the room and perched on the window sill. Screeching it took the letter, flapping its wings.

"Deliver this to Fred. Be sure he gets it soon." George said, smiling as the owl flew out of the room.


Years past, George had started a family. He was happily sitting in his living room, reading the Daily Prophet. An owl flew in dropping a old looking letter onto his lap. George looked at it for a minute before picking it up. He scoffed at the back of it.

To George, from your other half.

George opened the fragile letter, nearly passing out as he read the letter.

To George,

If you have received this letter it means that I haven't made it through the war. Though it may have been years or even days since the tragic day, my love from above has never faded. I watch over you now. I am happy up here. Though I have been missing you I have made up ways to entertain myself. I want you to know that you have to carry on. Do the one thing I have not been able too. Live. Live to your fullest George. And know that I am watching, always have been always will be. Twins are never really separated. They always find a way to get through everything. Don't worry, our mischief isn't managed yet.

From,

Fred.

George felt the tears he had been storing for years leaking through his face. Soon rivers flowed down his cheeks. He laughed and got up, placing the tattered letter on the shelf. Angelina smiling at him as she entered the room.

"Whos that letter from, George?" She asked.

"Fred..." He replied, smiling.

Angelina laughed, George wrapping his arm around her, "I see."

"Our mischief has never or ever will be managed." George smiled.
