It was May 2 1998 when we lost countless of lives. The war ended in success but it didn't satisfy all the lives lost. I remember when everyone cheered after Voldemort died. That happiness was something that carried on, the war that saved us all. I remember George pulling me into a hug and kissing my forehead. I remember the smile on his face and his eyes were beaming. He grabbed my hand as we looked around for Fred.

"Now we can fully live our lives" George said smiling looking back at me. "We can have the family we wanted without fear"

"Later mister, we're only twenty"

"So? It's long term" He grinned. That's until he saw his mothers grim look his smile faltered as he heard the news.

I remember how fast he ran tripping over himself. I would've let out a chuckle if it was over something stupid but I couldn't even move. Just when peace came to light we lost someone. I walked to his mom and gave her a hug as we made our way to Fred. We passed by many bodies with mourning friends and family by their side. I remember the look he gave me when I placed my hand on his shoulder. The eyes that were sparkling just a few minutes ago went away. I looked at Fred tearing up myself, the moments at Hogwarts flashed in my head. George carefully held his twin's hand for the last time. He stood up as they covered Fred with the blanket. He lost his other half.

Today is May 7 1998 and it was a horrible day. The weather had no mercy for giving last goodbyes. The funeral reception was depressing to say the least. George hasn't been himself either which is expected and I don't blame him. George decided to stay till everyone left. I stood there holding the umbrella under our heads. George just stood there looking at the grave stone.

"George why don't we go it's pouring and I don't want either of us to get a cold" I said feeling bad for even saying that. "I'm sorry..."

"Don't worry about it.....I'll just come back" He muttered taking the umbrella. "Let's just go"

He walked away not bothering to stop and wait for me to catch up. I walked behind him not even bothering to go under the umbrella with how soaked I am. When we made it to the car George took out his keys.

"I can drive if you want" I said gently.

"Fine" He muttered tossing me the keys. I just barely caught them since I was off guard. I sighed and unlocked to car.

I we both got in the car as I started it. The seat was uncomfortable considering I was soaking wet. While I was driving home the radio started to play one of Fred's favorite song. I glanced at George who aggressively turned down the volume. I thought maybe just maybe it might make him feel a bit at ease. I was clearly wrong as George just sat there looking out the window. The silence and tension made the ride home uncomfortable. When I pulled up to the house I unlocked the door as we both got out, it was of course still pouring. I quickly went to the door and unlocked it letting George inside first. I followed him and closed the door behind me I took of my muddy shoes and left them near the door but George forgot leaving a trail of mud. I followed the footprints that dirtied the carpet. I walked to the bedroom and saw him sitting on the bed lost in thought. I sat next to him grabbing one of his hands.

"We'll get through this together." I said leaning on his shoulder.

"Will we?" He asked softly.

"Pinky promise?" He chuckled. "We aren't kids"

"Your never to old for pinky promises" I smiled. "So pinky promise?"

"Pinky promise" He smiled hooking his pinky around mine.

"I love you" I smiled.

"I love you too" He said kissing me softly. "No matter what."

"I think it's time to shower your getting smelly" I joked.

"Says the one drenched in water."

"Because of you." I said as he laughed.

"Sorry love" He smiled kissing the back of my hand. "Let's go"

Little did I know that this moment was one of the last sparks he had left.
