Chapter 15: Gred and Forge
George looked over at his twin from the other side of their lucrative store, Weasley’s Wizarding Wheezes. Every day he was thankful to have his twin still with him. He doubted that he would have lived these last ten years without him. It would have been a half-life, and there was the very real chance that he would have ended his own life to be with the other half of his soul.
What most people didn’t realize is that they weren’t just identical twins, but magical identical twins. Not even their parents knew. They were two parts of the very same soul, like soul mates, but not. He let out a sigh and moved over to Fred, not caring that he was speaking with some customers. He stepped in front of him and hugged him close, burring his face in his twin’s neck.
“If you’ll excuse me for a moment, it seems my brother needs me at this time,” Fred said, wrapping his own arms around George.
“Of course, I understand,” the customer said with a soft smile, leaving the two brothers to themselves.
Fred moved so that he could walk George to their backroom for some privacy. “What is it Georgie?” Fred asked gently, pulling him into the chair they would sometimes share, especially for moments such as this.
George found himself curling up on Fred’s lap and let out a shuttering breath. “I’m glad you’re here Freddie. I would have survived without you…” he whispered.
“I’m here and I don’t plan on leaving you anytime soon, brother,” Fred whispered back, putting his face in his brother’s hair, kissing his head in the process.
“Sometimes…sometimes I still dream that your gone…that your dead and I’m…I’m alone,” was George’s broken response.
“Oh Georgie,” was all Fred could say, holding his brother closer, tighter. He too had nightmares, nightmares that he had died, and that Harry hadn’t been there to make sure he stayed with George. He didn’t understand what exactly happened, or how Harry did it, he was just grateful that whatever it was, worked.
They sat in silence, soaking up each other’s presence, before Fred brought up a different topic. “So, what do you want to do about the Draco thing?” he asked.
Just as expected, George gave a soft laugh, “The Draco thing is what we’re calling it now?”
“Yes, yes, it is, brother mine. And it’s a relevant topic. We are what we are, and it is inevitable that we share, and since we both find him irresistible, have for years, perhaps, now that he has been free, for the lack of a better word, for the last five years, we now have a chance, yes?” Fred said with a smile.
George moved about on his brother’s lap so that he could better look at his face as they discussed this. He thought about what Fred said before nodded, “Yes, I suppose we do, but how do we even now if he would be receptive to our advances?”
“We won’t know unless we try. We’ve been in love with the prat since 6th year, I say, if he doesn’t come to us in the next month, we, invite him over for dinner or drinks, and see for ourselves, if he is amiable to our flirtations, and hopefully a relationship comes out of it,” Fred told him with a smile.
George sat there, thoughtfully, taking in what Fred suggested. It could work, and it wouldn’t hurt. And to have someone else in their relationship could help him get over the near loss of his brother and be there to care for him when Fred wasn’t able to.
The thought of having someone else to love him and care for him was very appealing to him. Fred was stronger and more dominate then he could ever be. So was Draco for that matter and having the two of them to help him through his nightmares sounded wonderful.
Of course, if Draco ever need help of his own, well he would never be able to say no to the blonde. He would lend a shoulder if it was needed and the only ear he had to listen. He only hoped that Draco would agree to at least try at a relationship.
Fred knew his brother well, who wouldn’t when said brother was the other half of his very soul. He also knew that George needed someone else to rely on that wasn’t just him. Someone to help him when these moods, as rare as they are becoming after ten years, come up from nowhere.
Having someone else to help with the nightmare would be a boon, even better if it was someone that could love them for who they were and would let him and George love just as much in return.
It would be a challenge to get Draco to see them as them and not the infamous pranksters they had been in school, but Fred felt that in the end it would be worth it. Worth the struggle of getting him to open up to them about what he has gone through.
Fred was aware that he had loved his mother dearly, and his father even less, if at all. He knew that Draco even loved Astoria, his beloved wife the papers had once said of her. Whatever had happened that caused Draco to dissolve their marriage and disown his heir, must have been devastating to the man. And then there was Severus Snape. From what Fred could tell, the man had been more than a godfather and that perhaps Draco had loved him as a father.
It would make sense if that were the case. It would also make sense as to why, for the last five years, Draco had been more of a recluse than the socialite that he had once been.
And then there was Harry, and before he could think on that subject anymore, George interrupted, “Do you think it would work? I mean, if Harry was here, we could just ask him. You know that they became friends not long after the Battle.”
“Yes, I do think it would work. As for Harry, there is much I need to talk to him about, and I wish he was here so that I could.”
“About how you survived?” George asked softly, looking down at his hands, which Fred immediately took in his own.
“Yes, among other things, like where the hell he has been for the last five years. The bastard said goodbye in a damned letter and left right after Ginevra’s trial.” Fred told him.
George nodded and moved about once more before settling and placing his head on Fred’s shoulder. “I wish he was here so that we could just talk, like we did back before the Battle, and after.”
“Me too, brother mine, me too.”
After several more minutes of silence, George stood and stretched before saying, “We should go back out there, Lee can’t hold the fort down forever.”
Fred laughed and nodded, “Alright,” and he headed towards the door that would lead them back into the main room full of customers waiting to buy their products. “Are you going to be alright, Georgie?” he asked gently.
“Yeah, I’ll be ok. It was just for a moment. Thinking about Draco certainly helped,” George replied.
With a nod towards his brother, Fred opened the door and they both headed back out among the throngs of people waiting to pay.
