At the Burrow…
"Fred! George! Set the table! Breakfast will be ready in 5 minutes!" Mrs. Weasley called from the kitchen. She then heard a tapping on the window. "Pigwidgeon! What's Ron's problem now?" She went over to the window and let Pig in. The little owl was flitting around the ceiling like a little snitch. "Calm down you little rogue! Oh! It's from Ginny! Wonder what she has to say. (Pauses to read) Oh my-Arthur!!!" She then passed out.
* * * *
"Is she sure? I mean…some people can make mistakes." Mr. Weasley said pacing around the table. Mrs. Weasley was sitting at the table with a cup of tea with a generous amount of Ogden's Fire Whisky in it. Mrs. Weasley shook her head no. "How could she have let this happen? And with a Malfoy to top it all off! She's still in school for the love of God! I thought we had taught her better than that! I knew we should have sent her to an all girls school!" Mr. Weasley was starting to raise his voice now.
"It's too late Arthur. What's done is done, and there's no changing it. There's no need to get angry over it. She said she had a plan about her education, so we'll know what it is at the wedding. But I would still like to see her very soon. I suggest we apparate to Hogsmead and then walk to Hogwarts. I want to have a talk with Ginny, and then have a little chat with the git who knocked her up." Mrs. Weasley said.
"Yes. That would be good. Leave a note telling the boys where we'll be." But before they could leave Fred, George, and Percy just walked in. "We heard a loud thump and a yell, and we would like to know what's going on." Percy confronted them.
"It was just the ghoul you heard. Now we have some very important business to attend to. You'll have to fend for yourself for Breakfast." Said Mr. Weasley moving to get his coat.
"No. We want to know what's going on." George said.
"Especially if it concerns our one and only sister." Fred added.
After some thought, Mrs. Weasley finally said. "We're going to Hogwarts to talk to Ginny." She also got her coat and was about to leave before adding something. "Oh and you're going to be uncles." With that, Mr. And Mrs. Weasley apparated out leaving stunned faces on Percy, Fred and George.
"Wait! We're coming with you!" Fred shouted. They then apparated to Hogsmead.
* * *
Mr. and Mrs. Weasley apparated at the Three Broomsticks with Fred, George, and Percy five seconds after. "Hold it mom! Tell us everything before you make a fool of yourselves." Percy said.
"Fine, but then will you leave us alone?" Mr. Weasley replied. The three boys nodded. "Ok, sit down."
After a lengthy explanation, and a long pause, Fred finally said. "Well…at least we'll be financially set for the rest of our lives. You know with Malfoy being so rich and all." With a ferocious stare from Mrs. Weasley, Fred shut his mouth. "Ok then, now that we've told you, we're heading up to the school. You may come if you wish, but I'd doubt if Ginny wants to see you right now. See you when we get back" Mrs. Weasley said, leaving the pub with Mr. Weasley.
"Well if they are getting married next month…when's Easter, March 30? Then at least the kid won't be a bastard." George said.
"Shut up George." Percy said with a glare.

At Malfoy Manor
Lucius Malfoy sat at his desk reading through a dark arts spell book looking for a way to bring back his master. He has been searching ever since Voldemort fell, which was a year and a half ago. So far, he found nothing. He just finished up his current book and was about to pick up the next when the Malfoy family Eagle owl flew in with a letter. He took the letter, noting it was from Draco, and read through it. Seeing the subject, he read through it again, this time with a smirk on his face. *So he finally hit rock bottom. Well I'm not supporting him in the least. He'll see what poverty is once he realizes the Weasels can't afford anything! Not even a decent wedding. And I think I will be going to his wedding. Just to see the shack where he will be living for the rest of his life. * He thought. "Oh Narcissa! Darling this interesting little tidbit just arrived in the mail."
"What is it? (Pauses to read the letter) Oh my God!! And a Weasley to top it off! What are you going to do about this?" Mrs. Malfoy asked.
"Nothing. Nothing at all. Let him marry whomever he wants. He's just not going to get any help from me." Mr. Malfoy replied.
"What do you mean you're not going to help him? Do you mean you're not going to pay him at all?" Mr. Malfoy nodded. "You can't do that! I know the Weasleys aren't the most financially set people in the world, but if Draco really loves her, then why should we ruin his life?" Mrs. Malfoy practically yelled.
"And why shouldn't we support him? He's been nothing but a disgrace to us! And then he wouldn't even help me when I tried to save my lord. No he just stood there helping fend off the other Death Eaters." Now Mr. Malfoy was yelling.
"You mean a disgrace to you! I was never a Death Eater. You were! And what has become of your lord? He died that's what happened. Beaten by a mere child! He couldn't even kill him when he was a baby. I don't know about you, but I love my son, and I will help him. Half your money belongs to me you know. But please don't come to the wedding. I don't think anybody wants to see your ugly face." With that she turned on her heels and stormed off and out the front door. Mr. Malfoy followed her but when he got outside, she disappareted.
(A/N: Sorry this took so long, but I have not been able to get to my computer for a week. What with my dad's surprise 50th birthday party and all. But the next chapter after this will be up as soon as possible.)
