Graduating from Hogwarts was way stranger than I had previously imagined. I had imagined a glorious, most amazing celebration ever. And it was, but with everything these past few years, ever since Harry came to Hogwarts, everything went sideways. It turned from me and my two best friends playing Quidditch, planning on a professional Quidditch career, to me, my best friend and my boyfriend fighting against Voldemort and losing people along the way.

This isn't supposed to be the part of the story with all doom and gloom, this is going to be a happy part of the story, so happy, in fact, that I probably shouldn't have started it the way I did. So, let's just get to the smiles and happy, shall we?

Ever since that day with me and George, the three of us - me and the twins - have gotten much closer. We got back into our pranking business, finally opening Weasley's Wizard Wheezes, the twins being co-owners and naming the place after my original idea. The shop was amazing, filled with all kinds of creative and hilarious things, from Puking Pastels to Anti-Gravity Hats to Nosebleed Nougat. They also decided to make me a partial owner, but I have no idea why. And because Harry and I gave them a huge head start to making this place a reality, they allowed us to take anything we wanted from the store for free. So many people have visited, and summer is almost over already.

Harry arrived at the Burrow yesterday, so the twins and I - since we all live in the rooms above the shop - decided to pay their Mum a visit. And for some reason, Fred had been acting weird all day. Nervous, I guess you could say. Maybe just fidgety. I knocked on the door at the same time as the twins, creating a knock three times the volume. Molly opened the door and seemed surprised to see us.

"Oh my goodness!" Molly said. "Hello dears. Come in, come in."

We walked in with Molly's invitation and found everyone else - being Arthur, Harry, Ron, Ginny and Hermione - in the kitchen. "Fred! George! Liz!" Ginny ran over and hugged all three of us.

"Hey Gin," The twins said.

"Good to see you, Ginny," I added. Ginny went bad to her original spot and I looked to Everyone else. "Hey guys. Hi Mr. Weasley."

"Hello, Elizabeth," Arthur replied.

The day went on great, catching up with the family, seeing what they did over the months we hadn't seen them. Everyone laughed at funny stories and continued smiling all day. Now we were sat at the table, just having finished supper.

"Can I just say something real quick?" Fred said randomly during a minute of silence.

"Of course," Molly said.

"I've been thinking, recently," he said. Fred looked at me, fidgeting with something that I couldn't see. "Elizabeth, you and I have had or struggles in the past few years, and it's been hard at times. But we've also had great moments. Better than I could have imagined. And it seems weird, considering we're only just 18, but I can barely express in words how much I feel for you. But I know only one way to really show you." Fred got out of his chair and knelt down next to me, taking my hand in his. "I would be so honored, and so unbelievably happy, if you were to do the honors if being mine forever. Will you marry me?"

I froze. My heart skipped a beat at his words. A hopeful look was stuck in Fred's deep brown eyes, which looked into mine, holding me in place. I felt a smile creep up onto my lips, which moved unconsciously to speak the words, "I would want nothing more than to marry you. Yes!"

Everyone clapped and cheered as we both stood up and hugged, my arms around Fred's neck and his around my waist. He held me there for a moment, then took my hand once more and slipped the sparkling ring onto my finger. He looked into my eyes once more, our noses touching. He smiled, then kissed me.
