A/N: I don't really write angsty stuff, so I thought I'd give it a try. Furthermore, I'm exploring characters so I'm gonna pray this isn't totally out of character. Please enjoy

George Weasley loves Katie Bell. He loves her wispy sandy blonde hair and hazel eyes. He loves her long limbs and slender frame and soft curves. He loves her laugh that reminds him of bells that only ring on Christmas day. He also loves that she doesn't see him as just one of the Weasley twins. She never mistakes George for Fred. She doesn't even blurt out the wrong name.

Katie can distinguish George from Fred with ease. He has sparks in his eyes, his grin, his laugh, and the part in his hair. She tells him as they sit on the Quidditch field in the middle of the night, "Always be George. That's the twin I'm in love with." He kisses her softly on the cheek. He knows he will always love her. He wants to take her hand and run away. They could elope somewhere, anywhere, but probably France. France seems to be the best place in the world to run off and get married.

However, things change after the war. Fred is dead. Maybe, that's why George began hanging out with Angelina Johnson. Her beloved Fred is dead, and George is so much like him. In fact, George doesn't mind that she sees him as "Forge"- a combination of Fred and George, because he feels he needs to be both twins. He has to run their joke shop without him, he has to eavesdrop on their family without him. He has to pull pranks without him, and he hates it. Part of Angelina's life is destroyed too, and George can't help sympathizing with her. He has to be her Fred, because he knows what it's like to lose your other half.

And Katie? He feels like he's breaking when he tells her, "He's sorry, but he thinks it'd be best to see other people." He desperately wants to apologize and take it back right after he said it, but it's not some big, sick, twisted joke.

She isn't surprised or crying, because Katie Bell never cries. "That's okay," she answers searching his eyes for the George she loves. "You aren't as much yourself as you used to be." She knows about Angelina and George becoming closer, so she walks away. Her boots clunking against the brick alleyway as the rain pours. Her hair and her clothes are soaking wet, and George can't think of a time when she looked more magnificent.

A week later, he asks out Angelina. He knows she'll say "yes" because he's nothing more than a carbon copy of her soulmate. He likes Angelina, but he doesn't love her straight black hair, or her dark brown eyes, or her chocolate colored skin. She's curvier than he can handle and more muscular than he thinks a woman should be. He doesn't love her smooth velvety voice. It reminds him of angels which remind him more of Katie, and Angelina isn't Katie. He likes her well-enough so they have a small wedding and raise two ill-behaved children, Roxanne and Fred II.

Neither Angelina nor George hear from Katie for quite some time; however, they track her life as if she was a religious icon. She never lost herself like George did. She becomes a famous Quidditch star and has a wonderful relationship with Puddlemere's Oliver Wood. Every time George sees his Katie on a quidditch magazine, he thinks of her laugh. She seems to be laughing on the cover of the magazine, but he can't hear her laugh which makes him regret Angelina more and more each day.

He is in Diagon Alley waiting for Fred II and Roxanne to be finished with their school supplies. Then he hears that laugh that reminds him of Christmas Bells. Oliver has an arm around her, and George feels as if he is about to throw up. She smiles, and he is once more reminded that he is still in love with her. He wonders why he ever followed Fred's angels instead of his Bells.
