Backdrop
Harry, being of age, moved from the Dursley's house, and into his own flat. He wouldn't call it his own really, because Ron and Hermione were there all of the time. Harry worked at the Ministry of Magic as the head of the Auror office. Ron and Hermione were even sometimes at Harry's while he was at work. Since Dumbledore's passing, Harry, Ron, Hermione, Ginny, Luna, Neville, and the Order of the Phoenix defeated Voldemort. They found the remaining horcruxes, which were difficult to find, and blasted them to bits right in front of Voldemort. They managed to kill him, and send the Death Eaters that didn't die to Azkaban. Everyone was very shook up for months. Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry never reopened, but Professor McGonagall said she was thinking of reopening in the next few years. Harry was also having a hard time with Ginny, but he did have very good reasons...
Saturday, July 10th: Afternoon
Harry has had a girlfriend for about a month now. He usually met her after work. Most of the time, in time for dinner at her house. He'd leave work early to see her; Cho Chang loved it when he did hat just for her- she didn't even have to ask.--------------------
Meanwhile at the Burrow...
"Mum!" Ginny cried, "Can't you tell me before you tell Harry, Ron and Hermione? It involves me you said so yourself!'
"No, Ginny dear. You'll have to wait 'till Ronald, Harry, and Hermione arrive. It involves them also." Molly said in her usual Molly voice.
Ginny muttered under her breath, something about how 'Ronald' always gets his way. She ran up the stairs and towards her room. She entered her bedroom, closed the door behind her, and plopped onto her bed. She put her face into her pillow and groaned.
Crack! Crack! CRACK!
3 people were standing in Ginny's room. "Yes!" She shouted, and ran out of her room and down the stairs.
Harry, Ron, and Hermione filed into the kitchen.
"Tell us now?" Ginny asked pleadingly.
"Oh all right!" Molly snapped. "Harry, Ron, Hermione" She began, "Ginny needs somewhere to stay during the summer."
"Why does Ginny need somewhere to stay?" Ginny asked suspiciously.
Her mom gave her a look that clearly stated, "If you had let me finish..."
Ginny calmed and quieted down so her mother could continue talking.
"Since all of my children except for my youngest-" She gave Ginny a loving look - "have moved out and away, Myself and Ginny's father are going to visit Charlie in Romania for awhile. We suspect no longer than four months."
Ginny thought... "When are you leaving?" Ginny asked politely.
"Tomorrow." She replied smiling contently
"WHAT!" Ginny burst "You didn't tell me SOONER! Where am I supposed to go!"
Molly looked rather shocked for a second or two, and then looked disgruntled. "That's exactly why I've asked these three to join us today" She told Ginny somewhat rudely.
"Ron? Live with that slob again?" She asked much too cruel.
"I live there too, Ginny!" Hermione pointed out a little sadly.
"I know Hermione, but Ron's just too messy and bothersome for his own good!" She said warmly trying to cheer her up. The two giggled while Ron stood there red-eared, with his arms folded and a cross look written upon his face.
Molly cleared her throat warningly. They immediately stopped giggling and Ron looked harrassed.
"Well you don't have to live with your adoring brother-" Ginny snorted and covered her mouth to hide her smile. Hermione Chuckled a bit but saw Molly's fierce and grave look, (grave means, according to my thesaurus, no laughing matter or serious. Just to tell you, because I didn't know until I wanted a cool word for serious!) not only on her face but in her eyes. "If you don't want to." She continued. "But I wouldn't want to leave you with Fred and George for obvious reasons, nor with Percy or Bill because you don't like your brothers-"
"I never said that..." Ginny said sadly, looking at her feet.
"and I'll be with Charlie. You are much too young to
come. So I guess you're stuck with Harry... unless you can find someone
you would like to spend about four months with and on such short
notice..." Mrs.Weasley new very well that Harry wasn't very comfortable
around Ginny, but she did not know the reasons. She wanted Harry and
Ginny to get along, like brother and sister! She realized that they
didn't really go so well when they were together (or so she thought),
so she thought, 'If they could just get close enough to be like brother and sister...'
Ginny looked at Harry, he looked kind of uneasy, and seemed very interested with his shoes. He must have known what she was thinking.
'It'll probably be the only way to be close to Hermione still; considering Ron and her are at Harry's every waking moment for no apparent reason. And if I do stay at Hermione's, I'd be with Harry anyway- except if I would like to stay at their flat alone... no way! With Harry is definatly better than being alone... I just hope that he stops ignoring me!' Ginny thought quickly. She looked at Harry again, and he looked at her, he still looked uneasy.
Harry looked down again and blushed, with a very worried look on his face. 'I wonder what that's about' Ginny wondered.
"Now, even though we don't get along, I'll go with Harry." Ginny told her mother. "I don't wanna get stuck with Luna or Neville for I know what will seem like forever. Besides, I'll spend all my time with Hermione while she's over at his place." But that wasn't true, she wanted to find out why Harry had been ignoring her all of this time; He would barely even talk to her.
Molly walked away and up the stairs. "I suggest you start packing for Harry's, dear!" she hollered, once on the second story not seeing herself being followed by Ginny.
Harry apperated somewhere, and she walked up the stairs and into her room. Hermione followed attentively, leaving Ron in the kitchen alone.
She found Ginny in her room summoning clothing and knickknacks into her old Hogwarts trunk. Hermione ran over to her and hugged her. It seemed she was also a mind reader. Hermione pulled back and said, "You'll be fine living with Harry! Why don't you try to talk to him, and try to be friends again?"
"Hermione! Why won't he talk to me? What's wrong with me? I'm starting to get pissed off now, and I'm getting sick of trying to talk to him!" Ginny said.
"I don't know, Ginny. There's nothing wrong with you, and you have every right to be mad. I'm mad at him, we'll just be together all the time so you don't have time to be ignored."
"Okay, sounds good. I'll just say that I don't want anything to do with him, he had his chance!"
"I don't think that will solve anything, Ginny..." said Hermione.
"Oh well! He'll just have to deal with me now! I've got to finish packing, I wouldn't doubt my mum to send me to Harry's tonight..."
"Okay, I'll help."
--------------------
Sunday, July 11th: Somewhat close to noon
"Alright, Ginny! Lets get a move on!" Molly Weasley bellowed up to the third floor.
"COMING!" She called down to her mother. Not but a second later, Ginny appeared at the bottom of the stairs, with her trunk hovering closely behind her.
"All set?"
"Yes, mum." Ginny held onto her trunk and her mother apperated themselves to Harry's apartment.
"Bye, mum!" She hugged her as she said this.
"Bye dear, see you soon." She told her daughter. "Harry?"
"Yes?" Harry's head popped out from behind a wall that led to the kitchen.
Molly walked swiftly over to him, and Harry stuck his whole body out from behind the wall.
"Um, Harry," She started as she pulled Harry back into the kitchen, out of sight of Ginny, "Can you try to get along with her, please? I want you two to just be friends. Now, I don't know why your ignoring her, but please, knock it off?" She asked him, and smiled.
"Um, Mrs.Weasley, I can't promise anything... My situation right now is kind of embarrassing... But, I'll tell you what, I'll try? That's probably the best thing I can do right now..."
"Alright, try hard, then." She nodded, and bid them both good-bye before apperating back to the burrow.
Ginny stood in front of the door and Harry stood outside of the kitchen door, the space between them great. They looked straight at each other, looked away, and sighed.
