Although I wish it did.

This chapter is dedicated to a close friend of mine who's leaving the city- H.R. . :(

You know who you are.


Molly tidied up the kitchen magically while listening to CelestinaWarbeck, her favorite singer, on the radio. She stirred her mushroom soup and sipped a tiny bit of it. Ah, just right.

She looked out of the window to see George walking out of the house and vanishing on the spot- to go visit Fred's grave, probably. He'd been solemn and silent, just not like himself. Even Angie was sick of it, and she'd been complaining about his jumpiness since his first year. Just the mere thought of Fred brought tears into his eyes, as well as hers. She willed herself not to cry. Don't cry, Molly, Don't cry, she thought as her blue eyes turned misty.

Suddenly there was a loud crash.

She spun around, wiping her eyes, to find Ginny sheepishly mumbling, 'Reparo', and the broken pieces of a glass vase joined together again.

'What is it Ginny?' she asked, wiping her hands on a dish towel, and sitting down at the table, leafing through a copy of The Quibbler, just to get her mind off Fred.

'Well, you know, Harry took me to grab some Butterbeers today at Hogsmead today.'

'Oh yes dear, how was your date today?' she asked absentmindedly, skimming through an article on the sale at Gladrags.

'Amazing, Mum….' Ginny started blabbering on and on about her date, while her mother automatically tuned out and started to read an article by Luna Lovegood- she was working as a journalist at The Quibbler now- on the uses of Gnome saliva. Apparently, it made very good Doxy repellant.

'Mum!' she heard Ginny say loudly.

'What?'

She held up her hand and Molly burst into tears and gave her daughter a bone-crushing hug.

Even hours later, Molly and Ginny could still be heard chattering happily at the kitchen table. Still later, Molly could not stop glancing at the beautiful ring on her little girl's ring finger, with an elegant diamond on the front.

Harry had very good taste.


Well, so there it is! Any ideas for more chapters?
