All I Wanted Was You

 Marie Gerard was never a very popular girl, sure during her school years she was well liked and had friends but she was no one people anyone ever thought off. Well that's what she thought before the whole Voldemort returns thing. Her parents owned a small shoppe in Diagon Alley, they fixed pretty much anything that was broken. The day the deatheaters attacked the alley was the last day she had seen her parents. They sent her to some close family friends, though Marie wasn't aware they had been friends at all. The Weasley's.
   Marie sat in the house shivering as Mrs. Weasley made her some tea. She had a small accident with the floo powder that left her landing in the swamp. 
   "Here," a younger girl offered some dry clothes,"they aren't much but they should do."
   "Thanks," Marie tried to smile and headed to the bathroom to change. The clothes were simply some tight jeans and a plain vee neck tee shirt. There was also a loose lilac cardigan that Marie bundled herself into. She walked out of the bathroom nearly getting knocked down by two flashes of red. She maintained her balance and looked up to see the twins. She remembered the distinctly as the school pranksters, the would have graduated with her if they hadn't gotten expelled.
   "You're Marie?" one of them asked.
   "Expecting someone else?" she raised an eyebrow.
   "We went to school with her for 6 years, Fred!" the other one said to his brother.
   "And that makes you George," Marie pointed out.
   "The smarter twin," he nodded.
   "You know, that makes Fred the better looking one," she retorted. George rolled his eyes as Fred gleamed.
   "George, I like her!" Fred half-yelled,"she's a keeper!"
   "What?" Marie's eyebrows burrowed in confusion.
   "Nothing," Fred acted innocent as George glared at him. Fred walked off and George waited a minute before saying anything.
   "Would you like a tour of the place, it's kind of crazy around the burrow?" he asked. Marie smiled, but before she could answer Mrs.Weasley announced dinner was ready. 

   It was a simple meal but everyone always enjoyed Mrs.Weasley's cooking. Marie eyed George across the table, she could tell a difference between him and Fred. George was a little taller and leaner, it was enough to tell them apart. Marie smiled as George noticed her staring. He gave her a wink.
