CHAPTER 5 - SOME EXPLANATIONS
Later that night Cecily informed George he would be sleeping on her sofa. George said that he understood and was amazed as he watched Cecily pull a bed out of her couch. He thought, 'She has to be a witch!' He watched as she put sheets on it and then handed him a pillow. "Goodnight George" she said. "Night Cecily" he said to her.
Cecily lay in her bed that night thinking over the last couple of days. Her parents and brother were gone. All killed with some magic curse. Her Uncle Albus had tried to explain it to her, but all she knew was that her whole family was gone. It was all because of some revenge by a wizard who was out to get her Uncle. She knew about the magic world because of her Uncle and Grandmother. Her Dad had told her once that he was offered to go to the Hogwarts school but his mother hadn't let him. She still didn't know why her Grandmother didn't let her Dad go because her Dad didn't even know. Maybe if her Grandmother had let him go he could have fought whoever attacked him, her mother and her brother. Her Uncle Albus was at her apartment when she got home from work two days earlier. She was shocked, but her Uncle always had a "way" of appearing out of nowhere. As soon as she saw him, she knew something was wrong, as he had been shedding tears. Her Uncle never shed tears. He told her that her family had been killed and who had done it. She couldn't believe it. Her whole family was dead. Her Uncle had insisted she leave with him immediately. She refused. She was going to see that her family was given proper burials and settle their affairs. Someone had to do it. Her Uncle said she needed to be protected from this wizard because once he learned of her he would immediately come after her. "I can take care of myself Uncle Albus! So help this jerk if he comes near me!!" Her Uncle had chuckled at Cecily's outburst. She always was stubborn and headstrong he thought to himself. He immediately tried to think of a plan. He left her for a while and when he came back the next day he explained the plan and all about George Weasley. "Well if you want to send him here because you think I need a babysitter, go ahead Uncle Albus." Then he told her she'd have to marry him. "Marry him! You must be out of your mind! I'm not marrying a complete stranger." "It's the only thing we could come up with as to not raise suspicions as to why you would be traveling with George Weasley," he had said. Well that kind of made sense in a weird way. After he had left and things started to sink in she decided there was no reason for them to get married. They could just say they're boyfriend/girlfriend or something. They didn't have to get married. That was just crazy. A few hours later after her brain was exhausted from all the thinking it had done she finally drifted off to sleep.
