After dinner, Freddie went to check on Albus and went the long way back to the Ravenclaw dormitory. Freddie was looking at all the paintings when she saw someone very familiar.
September 2nd, 2017: Hallway
"Uncle George?" Freddie said, stunned.
"Uncle, George?" The painting said.
"Wait, looks like Uncle George but isn't, Uncle Fred?" Freddie said, eyes tearing up.
"Uncle, yeah, I am Fred," The painting said smiling. "So Bill?"
"Nope"
"Ron?"
"No"
"Ginny?"
"Ah, no"
"Percy?"
"No"
"Charlie?"
"Yes!" Freddie said with delight.

"Can't believe he had a kid," Fred said.
"Yeah, my name is Freddie Weasley,"
"Freddie?" Fred said, starting to cry.
"I guess I was named after you," Freddie said, also crying.
"Fred 2, I like it!" Fred said.
"There is another Fred," Freddie said laughing.
"Really, George?"
"Yeah, he and Aunt Angelina have two kids Roxanne and Fred," Freddie said.
"He stole my Yule ball date!" Fred yelled.
“Well, I am guessing Charlie still works with dragons so who do you live with?” Fred asked.
“Well, everyone. Some weeks I am at the Burrow others I am at Shell Cottage or Uncle Percy’s house, Uncle Ron’s” Freddie said.
“That’s no way to treat family,” Fred said, looking sorrowful. “You should only live in one house not being put in others”
“It’s how I have always lived so I'm indifferent,” Freddie responded.
“Wait, so how many cousins do you have?” Fred asked, shocked.
“Well, Bill has 3. Percy and George have 2. Ron has 2 and Ginny has 3 so 12. Wait Teddy is 13.” Freddie counted.
“Mum and dad must be swamped with gifts” Fred chuckled.
“Yeah, they miss you a lot,” Freddie said.
“I miss them,” Fred smiled. “Life was so much easier when I wasn’t a painting”
“The world is still recovering. Uncle Harry won’t mention anything about what happened. Granny will burst into tears when she says Fred instead of George. You can barely get a book on history.” Freddie said.
“Well it hasn’t been very long,” Fred said.
“I just want to know what happened,” Freddie said.
"What are you doing up, it is way past curfew" Headmistress McGonagall snapped.
"Sorry Minny, we were talking, you know she was named after me," Fred said proudly.
"What have I told you about that nickname, and you are excused but go to sleep, you have class in the morning."
"Goodnight," Freddie said, still smiling, and wiping tears off her face.
