The beginning of this chapter, your character is staying at the Burrow.
Your point of view

It's been two weeks since I caught Draco cheating on me. I have now moved into the Burrow, and I'm very happy, Thank you very much. Ok, so I'm not the happiest person on the planet. Ok, actually I'm pretty devastated. But the Weasley's have been totally understanding and open about what has been going on. And they're going to help me raise the baby.
I went to St. Mungos to check on the baby today. Everything went well, and the baby is very healthy. The Healer, Maggie, said I'm two months into the pregnancy, which is exciting; but I wish I had someone to go through this pregnancy with. Although, I'm glad I have an amazing 'adoptive family' and friends to help me.
••••
Today has been very difficult for me. I woke up this morning to a queasy, gassy feeling in my tummy. I realized immediately I was about to up-chuck all over the bed and myself. I hopped out of bed and ran to the loo. But the door is closed and I can see the light on inside. Oh no! I pound on the door and wiggle the knob.
*gag* "Hurry up! Pregnant lady out here. And I'm about to-" but suddenly I couldn't hold it in anymore. I realize too late, as I was emptying my stomach onto the hallway floor, the bathroom door opened. Causing me to vomit on the person's feet. "Ahh!"
After you get cleaned up you go find the not-so-lucky Weasley to apologize for vomiting all over them.
"Ron?" You open his bedroom door, hoping to find him in there. Oh, thank Godric! "Hey Ron... How's it goin mate?" He just sat on his bed, looking very pale and slightly mortified. He stared blankly at the ground, blinking only occasionally.
"I think it's time to show him to you. I don't care what mum says. It's driving me crazy. You have to know. You need to get out of here. It's not good for you to be cooped in here all the time." Woah. What's going on here?! He's spouting out nonsense. I better find Molly.
I turned around to reach for the door, but he had gotten up and grabbed my arm. "Please don't tell mum, she doesn't need to worry. Just- come with me. I need to show you something." "What in Godric's name are you talking about Ronald? I don't have time for this. And anyways, breakfast is ready and I'm very hungry."
"Fine, but after breakfast, I HAVE to show you someo-something. I'm going to find George and Ginny." "Um, ok then..."
                            •••••••
"Well, I'm finished eating now. Would you like to show me the 'surprise' now?" After I ate, I got dressed, brushed my teeth and put my long black hair into a messy bun. Luckily I found him after about five minutes in the garden with George and Ginny. They all had seriously solemn faces, all staring at each other.
"What now? Wait-don't answer that... lets just go already! Ugh, come on!" You pull Ron to the gate, then realize you don't know where your going. "Umm, yeah. You can lead the way," you add shyly. "Gladly," he answered.
We all interlock hands and George apparated us away. The familiar sensation of being squeezed through a very skinny tube swept over me, making me feel sick. I bend over to let the lightheaded feeling pass. "You okay?" Ginny put her hand on my back, rubbing it for comfort. "Yeah, I'm good. Now what is it you guys wanted to show-" but as I looked up, I was met with the craziest, most amazing thing I've EVER seen.

                             •••••••
George? No wait- George is right beside me. I'm sure of it. I look to my left to make sure George hasn't run to stand in front of me. Yep; still there. How can this be possible. He's dead. It's been nearly five years since he'd died during the Battle of Hogwarts. Or so I thought he had died.
"Fred?" Tears now running down my face I run to the supposedly 'dead' man.
He looks very stressed. Very forlorn in the face; his features very worried. His back is very rigid; he only ever did this when he was very nervous about something. Like, very nervous.
When I finally reach my 'dead' ex-boyfriend I jump into his rigid arms. And I hold him like he's about to disappear again.
And then I realize-
"-wait-you-you're alive! How is this poss-why has no one told me?! I don't understand..." Out of complete frustration I slapped him right on the cheek. And I rambled on and on, nobody said anything, they just looked at the ground, then each other, then back at the ground. Fred rubbed his cheek and stared at his shoes.
It was like we entered a parallel universe, and everything was spinning around me.
Am I dreaming? Is it the pregnant hormones flittering around in my brain making me go crazy? What. Is. Going. On?!
"I need to sit down. This is crazy... it's just too much." And before I knew it, I was sitting in a quaint room, in a plushy, warm, maroon chair. Is this his house? Is this where he's been hiding out for so very long?
After I calmed down Ginny gave me a cup of warm tea. Mmm, cinnamon peppermint. My favorite. "Fred made this for you. He remembered your favorite..." I looked to Fred, but he just sat there staring at his hands.
"Let's give them some time alone. I think Freddie has some explaining to do," Ginny whispered to the others. Then they all left and I was left alone with my apparently alive Fred.
"What in the bloody hell is going on?"


*••••••*
How was that for a surprise? I think I like the way this chapter turned out. Ok, so for next chapter we are going to have a blast from the past. Thanks lovelies!
