The entire Weasley family stood on Platform 9 3/4, along with anyone with the name Potter, Granger, or Lupin. It was August 31st and the Hogwarts Express was leaving the station. Teddy, Victoire, Dominique, and Molly Jr were all catching up with their friends, while the family tried to get a few more minutes to say goodbye. On top of that, a new generation of Marauders were starting their first year, Fred Jr., George Jr, James and Louis. The four were well equipped with a complete set of Weasley products, designed to annoy McGonagall to no end.
George and Fred, identical and together once more, were standing on the platform waiting for their turn to say goodbye to their sons.
The family had easily welcomed George Jr and Sophia into the family, and the years and pain from Fred being 'dead' were slowly fading away. Yes, the hugs that they all gave Fred were longer than they should have been, and George made a point to check in on Fred every few hours. But they were a complete Weasley family once again.
Thanks to Hermione's status at the Ministry, Fred had been reinstated as alive and the Wizarding World had welcomed him back with happy tears and more than one Daily Prophet article. Lee Jordan had come to the shop immediately after he heard the news and embraced the long, lost twin for close to ten minutes. Dozen's of old Hogwarts friends had showed up and many tears were shed at seeing the twins together.
But Fred's family had a life in America, Sofia had a good job and he didn't expect her to change her entire life.
After a lengthy discussion, Sofia had disclosed that because she has no family in the States, and her son was already at Hogwarts, she was willing to try to find a new job in the UK after the next school year. Until then, Fred and her would move back to America and come visit on school breaks. Harry and Hermione had created a slightly illegal portkey for easy travel.
Until Fred and Sofia moved to the UK, Fred would assist George with the shop from afar, by designing new products. It was a much better alternative to his boring office job. Ron volunteered to work at WWW's new Hogsmeade store so Fred and George could work together again.
George and Fred, identical and together once more, were standing on the platform waiting for their turn to say goodbye to their sons. Both told the boys, now nicknamed "the Jrs" to play as many pranks as possible.
When the kids finally got on the train, Angelina, Sofia, Molly, and Harry were all weepy messes, but Fred and George were smiling from ear to ear. This was exactly how they imagined their future all those years ago: identical, together, and complete once more.
"You okay Gred?" George asked, throwing his arm around his twin.
"Yeah, Forge" Fred answered, returning the hug.
