Forever And Always **Sequel to From Two Different Worlds**

Welcome to Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes!

"Blimey George, it seems like you've seen a ghost." I giggled. Harry lost it and doubled over laughing.

"But- How- why- am- then.. BLOODY HELL." He bellowed. The whole shop got quiet and looked over at us.

"George.. you're making a scene." Fred laughed. The back door opened suddenly and a dark skinned lady came out.

"Everything ok George? OhmygodMaddie." She said quickly.

"Hello Angelina!" I said cheerfully. I floated to her and gave her a hug.

"What're you doing here?" She asked.

"Well.. Long story short, Arabella went to Hogwarts this year, where I was currently teaching as Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher. Then Fred showed up and here I am." I replied.

"Is it really you Maddie?" George asked. I smiled at him and floated over to Fred.

"Yup. It really is." I said. Fred was still laughing and I hit him on the back of the head. "Fred, keep it together man. It was just one prank." I insisted. Fred calmed down and George got up. He eyed me up and then stuck a hand through me. I felt warmth growing in my stomach and it was weird. "George, if you want to keep your hand, I suggest you get it out of my stomach." I said menacingly.

********************

The shop closed hours later and we were all headed to the Burrow. I was excited and nervous. I mean, my friends, who are all grown up now and have families, were about to see me for the first time. When we got there, no one was home. There was a note on the fridge though.

Went to the grocery store. Will be back for dinner.

Everyone took seats around the fire, and I took in the scenery. I remember this place as if I only saw it yesterday. "Beautiful." I mumbled.

"Madeline, you've got some explaining to do." Fred commented. Harry nodded in agreement as did George.

"Well, ok. Where should I start.." I paused and looked at Toby who was happily talking to Arabella. "Ok, so when you die, you got to the place that looks exactly like the Ministry of Magic. You tell them how you died and stuff. Then you pass on. But in my case, I was not allowed to move on because I, well we, are particularum pythonissam. And since we are this rare species, we weren't allowed to pass on because I am bonded to your soul," I said, gesturing to Fred.

"And same goes with Toby and Arabella. Anyway, we came back to Hogwarts and lived there. It was rather hard to avoid Ginny and Hermione that year, but we managed. Then a few years ago, I begged McGonagall for a job, and she assigned me Defense Against the Dark Arts professor. Then I taught there since then." I finished. They all gave me and exasperated look and I sighed. "Anyway questions?"

Harry spoke up quickly."How is it that you can touch physical things, yet I can't give you a hug?"

"Beign a particularum pythonissam, you are allowed to keep two abilites. I chose magic and to be able to still touch physical things." I replied.

"So your here to stay, until I whither away and die?" Fred said seriously.

"Pretty much."

"Wow. No pressure on me or anything." Fred mumbled. I went over to him and sat on his lap. He shivered probably at my temperture..

"Don't worry about anything. We're together now, so just live your life." I said soothingly. He gave me a smile.

"Why didn't you tell me you were my mother?" A new voice said. Arabella stood up, brushed off her school robes and looked into my eyes. I knelled down beside her and brushed her hair behind her ear.

"I was afraid of how you would react." I answered honsetly. She smiled and attempted to hug me, but went through me. I gave her a hug before the front door flew open.

"Hello everybody! Dinner will be ready momentarily." Molly called. My eyes started to water as I looked at her through the doorway. She was much, much older now, her once red hair now gray. I walked up to her and tapped her shoulder.

"Do you need any help Molly?" I asked. She looked at me and tears formed in her eyes.

"That's quiet alright Madeline. But I could use the company." She said ever so sweetly. Tears were streaming down her face as I gave her a gentle hug.

"How have you been Molly?" I asked as I watched her intently. She wiped the tears from her eyes and began filling a pot with water.

"I'm afraid I'm losing my touch dear." She said as she magically chopped carrots. "I'm getting old. Both me and Arthur. I'm afraid we're due any moment now." She cried. Tears spilt over in my eyes and I hugged her tightly.

"Molly. Molly look at me." She sighed and looked me straight in the eyes. "Molly, I don't want you to be afraid. It is not something to be afraid of. Death is feared by so many, but in reality, it is probably the best thing that you will ever feel. Sure, you won't see your family, but you'll see them again. All the stress and worry, gone." I paused and looked deep into her eyes.

"When you die, you see your whole life flash in front of your eyes. You get to see your favorite memories again. And then you go and live on in eternity with all the other souls. You'll be able to see Remus and Tonks again. And even Fabian and Gideon. Let's not forget you'll meet James and Lily. Molly, when you die, I will be there to guide you, I promise." At those words, she broke down, crying with both happiness and sadness.

"You truly are a wonderful girl Madeline." She sniffed. I smiled and then that's when the real party started.

"We're here mum!" Ron called from the living room. "BLOODY HELL THERE IS A GHOST BOY!" He shrieked.

"Oh Molly! I want you to come meet Toby." I said, pulling her along.
