6 Months Later:

Fred George and Aurelia were all asleep, George on the bed, and Aurelia and Fred on the floor, Aurelia laying her head on Fred's chest. All of them were woken up by the sounds of apparating and yelling outside. Aurelia grabbed her wand, standing up quickly. Fred and George followed suit, all of them heading outside, having their wands raised. Fleur Bill and Charlie were already outside, and Aurelia's arm instantly dropped when she saw who was outside

Harry, Ron, Hermione, Ollivander, Griphook, and Luna. In Harry's arms laid the body of Dobby. Aurelia's heart dropped, and she slowly walked toward the group. Fred and George followed her, Ron turning when he heard the footsteps "Fred, George" Fleur walked up to Harry, kneeling down and putting a hand on Dobby's forehead "The poor little one" She muttered "We should bury him"

And so they did, Luna, Fleur, Harry, and Aurelia buried Dobby while Fred patched up Hermione's arm. He pulled out a vial from one of the cabinets, Hermione glancing at it "What is that?" Fred nods "Murtlap Essence. Nicked it from Mum's drawer just in case" He put a couple of drops on her cut, frowning at the word that was engraved on her wrist. He noticed her hand shaking slightly, and looked up at her. She still looked terrified, tears brimming in her eyes that threatened to spill. "Hey" Fred said gently, Hermione looking at him "You're safe"

She sniffled quietly, nodding slightly. Fred offered her a hug, and she accepted it. He wrapped his arms around her, putting a hand in her curly hair "No one will hurt you here, Hermione" She nods a little, and as he pulled away he put a hand on her shoulder "Let's finish bandaging that arm, yeah?" Hermione nods with a small smile "Yeah"

"And for the record, I think you're an excellent witch. Doesn't matter if you're pureblood or muggle-born. Don't let anyone convince you otherwise" Hermione smiles, nodding a bit "Thank you" Fred ties off the bandage "The Murtlap Essence can only do so much, it'll probably leave a scar" Hermione nods a bit, seeing the rest of the group walk in to the house. Fred stands up "Right, fleur and bill are taking the bigger bedroom, and george is injured so he needs the other one. aurelia charlie and I will be in the same room as george. Ron, Harry, Hermione, and Luna, you can take one, Griphook and Ollivander, you can take another"

George glances at fred before turning to Ron "Ron, why don't you Bill and Charlie show everyone where they'll stay?" Ron nods, him and his brothers showing everyone around. It was only Fred and George left. George stood next to Fred as always, and puts a hand on Fred's shoulder "You alright?" Fred shakes his head "They carved 'mudblood' into Hermione's arm" George frowns "She'll be ok. It'll heal up and she'll feel better"

"She's only a kid, George" George nods "That's why we'll protect her. She's got Ron and Harry" Fred nods a little "Yeah, you're right. We should make everyone dinner" George nods "Then we better get started"

Fred smiles faintly, offering George a fistbump "Thanks, Georgie" George gives him a fistbump with a smile "Of course"
