George POV

                    One year earlier
           A week. That's how long she's been gone. That's all it took for my entire world to crumble around me. I wouldn't leave my room. Wouldn't talk to anyone or eat anything. All I did was lay on my bed staring above me and thinking about her.
           Karly's blue eyes that I could get lost in forever. Her black curls that could never stay in any hairdo she did. Her teasing demeanor that would keep me laughing. Her laugh that was so beautiful. Gosh, everything about her was amazing, and I could go on and on.
          But she couldn't remember me. If she saw me she wouldn't even remember ever seeing me before. And that hurt me so much.
The door to mine and Fred's room creaked open.
"Merlin's beard George! What have you been doing in here?" Fred said.
I didn't say anything, or move from where I was, or even look at him.
"Come on George, say something. Or at least get up and eat something. You haven't eaten anything since we got back," I heard the worry in Fred's voice but I still didn't move or make a sound.
Fred groaned and it sounded like he hit his head on the upper bunks side railing.
"George please, you need to get up. You can't just stay here and do nothing. It's gonna kill you eventually."
I knew that, but I still didn't move.
"Gosh dang it George! Get up!"
Nothing from me. I wasn't going anywhere. Not as long as I knew Karly could never remember me. That I could never see her beautiful eyes and pull my fingers through her black curls. Not as long as I knew I could never kiss her or tell her I loved her. She would think I was mental if I did those now.
            Fred groaned again, but instead of hitting his head on the railing again, he grabbed my arms and pulled me out of bed.
           "What the heck are you doing?!" I yelled.
           "Finally I get you to talk," Fred muttered and started dragging me to the door.
            He dragged me out of the room and down the stairs. Straight to mum.
"What are you thinking?! You think starving yourself and sulking is going to help?!" Mum screamed at me.
Fred threw me onto one of the chairs in the kitchen. Mum bustled around and started cooking. My thoughts were not there though. They're always with her, and they never stray.
"If you miss her so much, why don't you write to her?"
I looked up at Fred, "what?"
"Why don't you write to her? You could get her to know you again, say it's an assignment for school or something like that. Then you can talk to her, maybe even get her to remember you."
I thought about it. Write letters to her. Maybe get a chance for her to remember me. I couldn't pass this up.
"Fred you are a genius!" I yelled and jumped up.
"I know I am, but my price for my geniusness is that you get back to the normal, prank filled, fun loving, George I know," I nodded, full of energy now.
Mum walked over to us with a tray full of food, "come on George you need to-" she stopped when I quickly walked over to her and took the tray out of her hands, set it on the table, and started eating.
"What did you say to him that made him go from depressed to full of life?" She whispered to Fred.
I couldn't see them, so I don't know what Fred did but whatever he did was enough for mum. I just kept eating and thought about the prospect of getting to talk to Karly again.

(A/N sorry this took so long! I've been busy with school and my family went on a trip. But here it is! The second book! Please comment and vote! Thank you!!)
