The Return Of Fred The First

so the truth is told

It was Christmas morning, everyone was at the burrow, the location of this year's Christmas celebration, it was just before dinner and as usual Molly was running around getting the last of the meal together.

"Harry dear, grab the tart from the oven please" Molly called into the kitchen

"Okay Molly."

Molly stopped suddenly and looked at Harry

"Harry James Potter, it's been nearly 16 years. How many times am I going to have to tell you this, call me mum." Molly said her hands on her hips.

"sorry mum." Harry said softly walking towards the oven.

"Everyone, Everyone dinners done. time to eat. oh Teddy stop that let go of James." Ginny yelled

Harry braced himself, he had to do this it would be emotional but he had to. The family, his family deserved to see Fred again.

The family was sitting around the table noisily passing dishes. Harry stood up and whistled loudly to get everyone's attention

"Okay, everyone I have something to tell you all. It's very important so please. let me finish before you all start going crazy." Harry said

"bloody hell is Ginny pregnant, I thought she looked bigger." Ron said George reached over and punched him

"shut up Ron. Harry go on." George said

"Okay, again quiet please, Okay everyone a few days before the Christmas break began Albus was wondering about Hogwarts and discovered something amazing. Something well all be happy about, something that will bring our family back together. While Albus was wondering he came upon a new ghost to Hogwarts, However the ghost knows the halls and passages better than nearly anyone. That ghost is the ghost of none other than Fred Weasley." Harry finished.

The table sat in silence for several minutes, eyes wide and mouths hanging open.

"Harry, are you sure?" George asked softly

"Yes George, I'm sure. Albus has seen pictures of you and Fred and he's positive and he's talked to the ghost, and he confirmed. He's asked about the family among other things." Harry said

"well then, Looks like I'm going to Hogwarts." George said "Mum bust out the floo powder Harry send an Owl to Mcgonnagal, I'm going to see my brother again after so many years"
