"Okay, are we ready?" Molly demanded the room of assembled guests, she had been driving them all crazy for the past three hours as she tried to cram as much planning as she could into three hours.

There was a universal murmur of confirmation and Ron could be heard complaining to Harry about how his dress robes itched.

Molly stuck her head out of the door and nodded to Remus and Calliope who were waiting outside. Fred took a deep sigh as Molly sat down, feeling a flutter of excitement in his stomach as well as an overwhelming sense of excited anticipation and nerves radiating from Calliope.

"Don't let me fall," Calliope squeezed Remus' arm.

Remus let out a small laugh, "I would never let you fall Calliope."

Calliope took a deep breath and allowed Remus to guide her into the room. Holding his arm tightly for support for fear that she may trip and fall flat on her face.

Molly had done a wonderful job with the living room. It still had Christmas decorations everywhere, the tree stood in the corner of the room decked in tinsel and many ornaments along with a stunned garden gnome dressed as an angel atop the tree. Along with the Christmas decorations the room was decked with flowers and Molly had adorned the dining room chairs that their friends and family were sat on with white fabric and bows tied with red ribbon.

Calliope took in all of these details just before her eyes were drawn to the most important thing in the entire room- Fred.

Normally Calliope would shrink under the eyes of so many people, but with her eyes fixed on Fred's smiling face, it seemed that the whole world faded away, leaving the pair of them as the only real thing in existence.

The electricity that shot through her body when her hands were placed in Fred's was all too familiar, and it made her feel immediately at home.

Elphias began to speak, but Calliope hardly heard him. She was too lost in Fred's blue eyes, his smile, his nose, his hair. Everything about him absorbed her down to the feeling of his fingertips against her's, which sent tingles down her spine.

"I do," said Fred, jolting Calliope back to reality, his smile widening as he spoke.

"And do you Calliope Doge take Fred Weasley as your partner in life for as long as you may live?"

"I do," Calliope hardly whispered the words, squeezing Fred's hands tightly as she spoke. Elphias waved his wand and a ribbon of light wrapped itself around their hands, before fading away.

"Then I declare you bonded for life." Elphias smiled, "you may kiss the bride."

Fred cupped Calliope's face in his hands and pulled her into a tender kiss. They broke apart, and everyone began clapping, Calliope heard a wolf-whistle and saw George wink at her. 

Fred placed an arm around Calliope's shoulders and held her tightly, "I can't believe we actually just did that," he murmured in her ear.

Calliope laughed, "well we did, so you'd better start believing it."

"Oh I will," Fred grinned at her.
