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

Facing What Used To Be

Hagrid took everything in and finally gave a small smile. "Maddie, fighting your feelings is the most difficult battle."

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

"Harry! Thanks for taking Bells and Toby home!" I yelled as I strolled through the front door of his and Ginny's house. The Potter kids and my twins were in the sitting room, going through all of Arabella's books and stuff from school. "Hey kids, where are Ginny and Harry?"

They all looked at me and smiled. "They're in dad's office." Albus replied. I gave them a smile before making my way towards Harry's office. Without even knocking, which was quite rude on my part, I strolled in.

"Maddie! We didn't expect you so early." Ginny said immediately. I looked around the office and scattered around the room was piles and piles of hard cover books.

"Yea.. Hey, what's with all the books?" I asked. Harry whipped out his wand and with a flick the books disappeared.

"They were nothing." Harry stammered. I rolled my eyes and smiled.

"Ok, well thanks for taking the kids, but we'll be heading home now. I'll probably see you tomorrow, Arabella and Toby want to hang out with Albus, James and Teddy." They both nodded and I took the kids home.

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

"Run along you two, I'll be upstairs in a minute." I told Toby and Arabella. They both squealed excitedly and went upstairs.

"Welcome home love." A deep voice said. I turned around and saw Fred leaning against the doorway and giving me a hearty smile. He must have seen the confused look on my face because he let out a chuckle.

"What's a matter?" He laughed.

"I thought we were fighting?" I said quickly. He gave another smile.

"Look, I'm sorry. I really, truly, genuinely am. I didn't mean to snap at you.. Forgive me?" He pleaded. He gave me a goofy grin and I let out a giggle.

"Of course Fred!" I gave him a peck on the cheek and we went upstairs to check on the twins. Arabella was talking excitedly to Toby, who was floating in circles above her. "Hey kids! You unpacked?" Arabella got up and started unpacking while Fred helped her. I grabbed her messenger bag and started to empty it.

At the very bottom of the bag was the same blue book I saw in Harry's office. I picked it up and read the title. Gone but not Forgotten, The Story of my Half-Sister. On the bottom of the cover in neat calligraphy, was Harry's name. "Arabella, what's this?" I asked. She turned around, saw the book, and snatched it from my hand.

"It's nothing!" She squealed. I gave her a stern look and she let out a sigh. "It's a book Uncle Harry wrote about you." She confessed. I gave a small smile and let Fred and Arabella finish unpacking. Toby watched happily and laughed as his father cracked another joke.

Is this what it's like to have a family?

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

"Maddie! Are the kids- err is Arabella asleep?" Fred yelled from the kitchen.

"Shh! You'll wake her up!" I hissed as he came into the sitting room.He gave a guilty smile before running upstairs. I rolled my eyes but followed. Fred was undressing and brushing his teeth. I played around with my wand waiting for Fred. When he climbed into bed, I layed next to him, smiling up at the ceiling.

"Good night Fred, I love you." I whispered.

"Night Maddison. Love you too." He whispered back. I froze a little. Did he just call me Maddison?

"I'm sorry, what did you say?" I asked. He let out a loud yawn before turning on his side.

"Night Maddison, Love you too." He repeated.

...

Something is definitely not right here...

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

so some of you may or may not know, but I was in the hospital last week. I haven't been feeling well and to top it all off.. I watched as my grandmother took her last breath. Yes, I lost another member of my family a couple of days ago.

I will not be on wattpad until this whole thing is over. maybe in a week or two.

Two the other winners of my contest, I'll private message you :)

I really hope you all can understand my situation here as I was very close to my grandma. Love you all and I hope all of your families are safe and sound.
