Since our marriage a year ago, Fred and I have been a happy couple ever since. Of course there'd be some arguements but that's normal in any relationship. We met a witch named Kat when she came looking for a job in the shop. We soon became close friends since we saw each other every day and I noticed her start to develop feelings for George and vice-versa, so Fred and I were trying to get them together in our free time. It was actually quite funny when they'd blush over something we said. And although this is all true, I can't deny that things involving the entire wizarding world have done nothing but go down hill. After Dumbledore's death, Hogwarts has become more of a torture chamber than a school. Harry, Ron and Hermione are on the run and the Order have been going on various missions to fight off some death eaters and dementors which were attacking a city and occasionally they'd inform the twins and I. 

I was in the middle of a really good dream, when I felt someone shaking me and calling my name. Needless to say, the dream ended and I woke up. 

"Go away!" I groaned as I pushed the person away and turned over, pulling the covers up over my head. 

"Gwen, come on. It's time to get up. We have work to do." The voice said again. I was way too tired to try and figure out who it was. Either Fred or George since they sound the same. 

"No!" I mumbled as I buried myself farther under the covers. 

"Come on, get up." They said again. I shook my head as I tried to go back to sleep. 

"Gwen, if you don't get up soon, I'll make you get up." They tried. 

"Good for you!" I said as I stuck a hand out from under the covers and gave them a thumbs up. That was a bad idea, since they grabbed my hand and tried to pull me out of bed. Now I knew it was Fred. I got pulled into a sitting position and acted like I was going to get up so he would let go of me. As soon as he did, I fell back against the pillows and pulled one over my head. 

"Gwen Marie Marshall!" he yelled out. I winced against the loud sound, but ignored him. I heard him let out a groan before walking off. I was almost back to sleep when I heard him walk back over a couple seconds later and stop right next to the bed. 

"You better not pour that water on me" I muttered with my eyes closed as I read his mind. 

"Come on, you need to get up." He said as he pulled the covers back and started kissing my shoulder. He worked from there, up to my neck, where he started sucking lightly. A small moan escaped my lips as I rolled over so I was facing him. I grabbed the back of his head and pulled him down to me, pressing my lips to his. As we continued to kiss, I pulled him into the bed farther and he was lying next to me. When we stopped kissing, I snuggled into his chest and closed my eyes as I tried to get back to sleep. 

"No, none of that. We need to get up." Fred murmured as he pressed a kiss to the top of my head. 

"But why ?!?!?! Can't we just stay in bed all day?! Come on, I'll make it worth your while!" I whined, trying to convince him of my plan. 

"As tempting as that sounds, we can't. We have work to do today." He said as he stroked his fingertips up and down my bare arm. 

"Do we even have a case to work from?! Because I sure as hell don't remember being told of one before!" I said as I finally opened my eyes and looked up at him. 

"George was called this morning, so yeah, we do." Fred said, before he leaned down and pressed a kiss to my forehead. I let out a sigh, before sitting up. 

"Fine, I'm going." I said as I crawled out of bed and grabbed some clothes before heading into the bathroom. 

I walked out of the bathroom about a half hour later, showered and dressed. I had on faded jeans and a light gray tank top. I had put on a light amount of black eyeliner and gray eyeshadow with a little bit of pink lipgloss on my lips. My hair was set in soft waves and I had on my coconut body spray as always. Walking across the room, I grabbed my black boots off the floor and walked over to the bed. Sitting down, I pulled them on and zipped them up, before walking over to the dresser. As I let my hair fall down to my shoulders, Fred wrapped his arms around my waist and rested his chin on my shoulder. 

"You look gorgeous this morning." He whispered in my ear as he pressed his lips to my neck. I laughed at him as I tilted my head to the side a little as he continued to kiss me. 

"You say that every morning!" I exclaimed. 

"Well, it's not my fault that it's true every time." He retorted as he pulled away and turned me around. I laughed again and blushed a little as I looked away from his gaze. 

"Sure it is." I said doubtfully as I pulled away and turned around. "Can I have this?" I asked as I picked up the coffee cup from the dresser. 

"Yeah, it was for you anyways." He said with a smile as I put the edge of the cup up to my lips before he had even responded. I took a swallow of the fantastic coffee before smiling at him. 

"You're amazing. What did I ever do to deserve you?" I asked as I wrapped the arm that wasnt holding the coffee around his neck and smiled up at him. 

"I was just asking myself the same question." Fred muttered as he looked me over. I let out a chuckle as I shook my head at him and walked around him. I grabbed my black leather jacket off the top of my bag and slipped it on before pushing the sleeves up and buttoning the ends so they would stay there. 

"Come on. We should get over and find out this new case." I said to Fred as I walked towards the door. I heard him grab his dark blue jacket as I reached the door. He was soon behind me as I headed over to Kat and George's room since they had finally given into their attractions and officially gotten together. As Fred slipped his jacket on, I wrapped on the door with my knuckles and waited for one of them to answer. As I waited, I glanced over my shoulder at Fred to see him looking at me. I shot him a smile just as the door was opening and turned around to find a bed-head Kat standing there in one of George's button-up shirts with a sleepy look on her face. I whipped around to face Fred and narrowed my eyes. 

"You made me get up when George hadn't even gotten Kat up yet?!" I exclaimed as my hands rested on my hips. Fred shrugged his shoulders as he pushed past me. 

"Not my fault he let her sleep in." Fred muttered as he brushed past me, purposely sliding a hand across my stomach. I gritted my teeth and stomped my foot as I walked in after him, passing a yawning Kat as I did. 

"Morning to you too, Gwen." She managed to say after she was done with her yawning. 

"Sorry, but Fred made it sound like you two were waiting on us to get over here when he was getting me up." I said as I slumped into a chair next to George at the table and crossed my legs and arms. 

"You try to sleep in as well?" Kat questioned as she sunk into the chair on the other side of George and rested her head against his shoulder. I nodded my head slowly as I closed my eyes and rolled my neck around a little to loosen it up a little. 

"So what's the case this time, George?" Fred asked as he slipped into the seat next to me. I still had my eyes closed, but I felt him rest his hand on my knee, massaging it a little with his thumb. I bit my lower lip softly as we waited for George to explain.

We kept on out toes, with our eyes and ears open for anything out of the ordinary. Suddenly, the scream of a male voice made all of our heads snap towards one direction and we started running towards it. I got there first since I had been closer, and skidded to a stop at the scene. The young, teenage boy was pushed up against the wall and the leader of the death eaters was walking towards him with a sadistic grin on his face. I squared my shoulders, pursed my lips, readied my wand, and stepped forward. 

"Oh boys!" I called out in a sickly sweet voice. All of the death eaters stopped their snickering at the whimpering boy, and turned to face me. 

"Reducto!" I said with a grin before pulling my wand up and firing it at the closest death eater. He yelled as he was blown away into a wall and collapsed to the ground. The other death eaters all looked at each other before looking at me and growling. I grinned at them as Kat, Fred, and George stepped up beside me and got ready for a fight. I felt a tug on my wand before it went flying out of my hand and all the way to the other side of the alley. It clattered to the ground, along with Kat's, Fred's, and George's wands. 

"This should be interesting." Fred muttered as the lead death eater stepped forward with a smirk on its face. 

"That's half the fun." I said, shooting Fred a wink before running forward towards the leader. I heard the others call after me, but I ignored them as I stepped up to the leader and got ready for the fight. He growled at me with a look of hate, yet joy in his eyes before raising up a hand and swiped at me. I ducked the hand and dropped down to the ground, delivering a sweep kick to his ankles. The death eater fell to the ground on his back as his minions just stood there, gaping at me. Suddenly, they all snapped out of their trace-like states and got their wands out too but Fred, George, and Kat stepped up to bat and started fighting them, since they had retreived their wands while I was destracting the leader. Since there were four death eaters left, it left the playing field even, so we each got a death eater to ourselves to fight. 

About 20 minutes later, George and I knocked out the last death eater and practically dropped to the ground in exhaustion. Leaning against each other for support, we both looked over to see Kat and Fred leaning up against the wall across from us. Luckily, the boy had started running and gotten away as soon as the death eaters' attention had been turned to me, so I assumed that he was safe now. 

Pushing myself off the wall, I walked over to Fred and fell into his arms. He automatically wrapped his arms around my waist as he pushed off his wall and we started walking towards the street. I glanced back over my shoulder as we walked to see George with his arms around Kat and his lips on hers as they followed after us. I smiled gently at my two friends, before turning my head back around and leaning it on Fred's shoulder as he led me to the car. He let go of me, just to open the door and I quickly slid into my seat and rested my head on the back of the seat as Fred closed my door and walked around the car to the other side. I glanced out the window to see Kat and George walking slowly towards us, their hands entwined and smiles on their faces. 

I closed my eyes as they opened the back door and slid into the car. I listened to the roar of the engine as Fred started the car up. I opened my eyes as Fred took my hand in his and I smiled at him as he pressed his lips to the back of my hand as he started down the road, back to the shop.
