A/N: This chapter contains the torture of Mr. Weasley and Mr. Snape. Please if you are easily brought to tears by their pain do not read this chapter. I promise they will heal fully and be as good as new. Please don't hate me for this I could barely stand to write it and I cried the whole time, but the story need something other than just fluff.

The Headmasters Office

We walked slowly up the winding staircase to Headmaster Amycus' office, sure as the day we were born we knew that we were heading for punishment. The door opened just as Severus was about to knock. There stood Headmaster Amycus with a scowl on his face.

"Inside now!" He snapped making Sabrina and me jump. We all walked in and stood before his desk. He sat behind his desk and watched us, thinking over our punishment.

"You all know that it is illegal to be engaged before you leave the school. Seeing as you overlooked that law I'm going to have to punish you. Mr. Weasley and Mr. Snape please meet me after classes today in the dungeons. The two of you will receive the punishment for the ladies as well. If you decide not to come than the punishment will be doubled on a later date. Now get out of my sight." He said menacingly. No one said anything as we left the room, Fred didn't even crack a joke. No one remembered the law and now the boys were going to be punished for it.

"I'm not going to let you be punished for me." I said as I stopped in front of Fred making him look at me.

"Don't worry about me, I can handle it kitten." He smiled but it didn't reach his eyes like it normally does. I kissed him deeply and wrapped my arms around him.

"I cant lose you. I love you so much Freddie." I said looking up at him with tears shining in my eyes.

"I will be ok, he cant kill me or make it to where I will die even if I'm in the hospital wing. Let me and Sev take care of this please." He begged wiping away the tears.

"Fine but if you end up in the hospital wing I will smack you when you are healed." I promised wrapping my arms around him and lying my head on his chest. I listened to his heart beat for a few minutes before taking his hand and walking to our first class.

****In the Dungeons after classes****

"You ready for this Sev?" Fred asked as they stood before the dungeon doors.

"No but we might as well get it over with so we can go back to the girls." He said sourly and opened the doors.

"Good evening boys. Please have a seat." Amycus smiled evilly as they stood before him. He had a cat-o-nine tails in his hand and behind him were chains attached to the wall. The room was obviously ment for torture.

"Now both of you will be subjected to three lashes for you and three for the girls, do you understand why you are receiving this punishment?" He asked in a ragged voice. Neither of the boys said a word but they both nodded. They knew the were being punished for being happy and it was completely wrong in their eyes.

"Good, now both of you shirts off and stand against the wall facing it." He snickered as two men dressed in black chained Fred and Severus to the wall. Severus looked over at Fred who smiled at him and mouthed 'For the girls' and Severus nodded. The first blow across Fred's back was sharp and he bit his lip to keep from screaming. When the next one fell across his back he felt his skin rip. Fred's back arched with pain as the cat-o-nine tails slashed across Severus' back causing him to groan in pain. The second lash left welts across his back. Fred prepared himself for the next lashing just before he felt the stinging and heard the snap as it collided with his back. He could feel the blood dripping down his back as the next snap crackled in his ears. Severus felt the whip crack against his skin breaking it enough to make him bleed. His arms shook from the force he was placing on them to keep himself upright. The next lashing buckled his knees and caused him to scream. Fred looked over at Severus and felt the tears slip down his face as the hardest lash crossed his back causing him to bow his back with his head pressed against the brick wall. Severus had just gotten him self back upright when the cat-o-nine tails snapped against his skin ripping the flesh from his body. Fred heard more than felt the last lash across his back as it ripped his back even more. Severus roared with pain as the final lash struck him.

The two men dressed in black unchained Fred and Severus letting them fall to the ground. Fred was the first to sit up and when he did he moved next to Severus and helped him sit up. Amycus left the room as the boys stood up.

"We need to get to the hospital wing now." Severus said through gritted teeth.

"Yeah, lean on me if you need to." Fred said putting Severus' arm around his shoulder to support him. As they walked up the stairs Fred could feel Severus slipping from conciseness. They had just reached the top of the stairs when Fred's knees gave out and both boys fell to the ground. When Fred and Severus came around they were laying on bed in the hospital wing.

A/N: I kept it short so I didn't have to write anymore of their pain. I'm sorry please don't kill me. I still love you all.
