The Marriage Law - A Harry Potter Fanfic

32

Fred froze holding me in his arms tightly "Oh Merlin...how much do you know?"

"You don't deny it? Please don't tell me this is real...this can't be real..."

"I'm sorry...I'm so sorry...it is...this is real my love...it's real..."

I clung to the man and he whispered softly, "I'm sorry...I'm sorry..."

"A miscarriage?"

"Two."

I sobbed harder and Fred brushed my hair out of the way "Sweetie, would I help if I got Tigger?"

A small humourless laugh left my mouth "A stuffed animal?"

"Not really, but Alex tells me whenever you feel bad it helps you?"

"What is it?"

"A tiger..."

I pulled him closer and shook my head "Can you just hold me?"

Fred picked me up and pulled back the blankets before lying down beside me. He pressed his lips against my forehead and whispered softly, "It'll be alright...we've gone through this before...it'll take some time but we'll be ok. We'll be ok."

I pulled him in closer "Please shut up...and hold me."

He wrapped his arms around me and held me, sniffing softly every now and again.

"Damn it, you're making cry."

I laughed softly "You were crying downstairs."

He froze "Oh Merlin, Pansy's going to kill me."

I sniffed softly and wiped my face on his jumper, one exactly like mine that's at Pansy's place. I closed my eyes...all the signs were there...all of them...I was an idiot

***

I awoke to several pairs running footsteps coming towards the room "Pansy!! Stop!! They're sleeping!!"

The door opened and there was silence "Awe...they're so cute."

"Sshhhh, don't wake them."

"Are those tear tracks on her face? Why was she crying? George I told you to take care of her!! Are you insane? Where is her clothing? Is that her shirt in the bathroom? Where's her skimpy underwear?"

Ginny spoke softly "you got her to wear skimpy underwear? Respect... I could never get her to even think about wearing clothing like that..."

I could imagine Pansy smirking and I pulled Fred closer. He sniffed a little and rubbed his nose on my neck making me snicker. He smiled and kissed my neck gently. God this was still so weird, but it felt...natural

"Shut the bloody door you idiots!"

The door closed and I ran my hand up his chest and around his neck before opening my eyes. Fred's eyes were still closed but he was smiling happily. He shifted closer and murmured softly "How did you sleep?"

I didn't answer instead reaching up to hesitantly kiss him. He responded slowly his hand creeping around my back. He slung a leg over my waist rising above me and someone cleared their throat "I knew it, that underwear did come in handy."

We pulled apart with a start and turned to see the three of them standing in the doorway smirking. Fred rolled his eyes and looked at me carefully "Are you ok?"

"No."

"I'm sorry."

I could feel my eyes welling up "It's my own bloody fault."

"No, it's not. Don't go there again please."

I took Fred's hand and gently brought it down to my stomach, running his fingers along the long scar that was across my stomach.

"Then what's this? I haven't had surgery as far as I know. Fred, did I...have an abortion?"

Fred's face fell and he shook his head speechlessly. I gasped softly and there was a laugh "Seriously? I knew this was going to come back and bite you in the arse Granger."

We both looked at him and George walked over throwing himself on the bed "It wasn't an abortion, I promise."

Fred frowned "How do you know?"

"Hermione told me."

I frowned "What?"

Pansy frowned "George, you bloody idiot."

"What?"

She gave him a look and Fred raised his eyebrows "She knows about quite a bit Pansy, she overheard us talking after she got changed out of her wet clothing."

"And why was her clothing wet?"

I sighed running a hand through my hair "We were playing in the snow, can you all shut up? George, explain what the hell is going on."

George rolled onto his side murmuring softly "I overheard you and...your brother talking in the hospi-

"Wait my brother? Alexander? How do you know about him? I haven't seen him since I was 9 and he was sent to boarding school."

"We met him...6 months ago now? More or less..."

"How is he?"

He smiled sadly "I'm going to see him in a half hour, I'll bring you if you like."

I nodded and he smiled "Last year in May there was a war. There was a bad dude killing people, he targeted one of your best friends in school. So when Harry left school you and one of my many brothers left with him. You ended up getting pregnant."

"Fred came?"

"No, Fred didn't know you were going and in all honesty he wasn't really friends with Harry and Ron's a dick so..."

Fred snorted and buried his face in my giant pile of my hair "Just a dick?"

"Oh I could say a lot about him, he's also madly in love with you, and you were supposed to marry him."

I exhaled heavily and murmured quietly "Supposed to?"

"That why you can't remember anything, you decided to forget about all of this in exchange for not having to marry Ron. Fred almost did the same, he said that if he didn't hear anything about you by the time the wedding came around he'd forget about us..."

"Us?"

"Everything, including our family. He'd forget about me, Ginny, Mum, Dad...You."

I looked at Fred "Why?"

"Because I don't want to marry anyone but you, I won't be forced to either."

"You'd lose everything...for me?"
