Ginny's Plan
July 29th, 1997
5:16 p.m.
Ginny watched as Bill's car parked in front of the house. Bill had sent a letter that he was arriving from France
after two weeks on holiday. He also mentioned that he and Fluer had decided that Gabrielle would benefit by bringing
her with them.
"Wonderful, they're here!" Ginny said acting happy. She was in the livingroom with her entire family which they
were waiting for them. Her mother looked stern, Mr Weasley hid a smile and the twins, Ron and Charlie snickered.
"Ginny, don't be so sarcastic. Your father and I have decided to accept the marriage and you and your brothers
should too." Mrs Weasley said with a rather hesitant tone. Ginny looked at her and said, "Mum, you said it: You and Dad
accepted the marriage, that doesn't mean that we as a family have to accept it. I hear them at the door." Ginny walked
to the door before letting her mum respond to what she had said. She opened the door in a maid-like manner, and said:
"Ah Mr Weasley, we were expecting you, please come in." Ginny said smiling.
"Oh is dizz is the maid? She seem, uh how you say, rather young to be your help." Gabrielle said with a rather snotty manner.
Ginny glared at her, Bill laughed and Fluer giggled.
"No, no. Gabrielle this is baby sister Ginny. She's your age actually." Bill said sensing danger from Ginny's side.
"Oh." Gabrielle said as if it didn't really matter to her who Ginny really was.
They walked in and greeted the rest of the family, Ginny thought that having one Delacour sister in the house, two was going to be hell on earth. Bill brought her back fromher thoughts. "Ginny why don't you say hi to Gabrielle, like I said before, you are the same age."
Ginny looked at her brother, he looked at her with a pleading look on his face. 'He better know that I'm doing this because
of him. If not I'll remind him later.' She thought. She turned to Gabrielle and smiled forcibly.
"Nice to meet you, at last Gabrielle." She said in the sweetest of voices.
Gabrielle looked at her as if seeing her
as an inferior specimen. "Bonjoir, Madameoiselle Weasley."
"Ginny aren't you going to greet Fluer?" Mr Weasley asked, he knew how much this pained his only daughter.
"Of course, Father." Ginny said grindig her teeth. She again turned and faced her future sister-in-law.
"How are you, Fluer?"
"Fine, Zank you. You?" Fluer asked nicely, Ginny could tell that Fluer was trying her hardest to be liked by the Weasleys.
Ginny wasn't going to give in. "Fine, too. Thanks." She looked at her mother. "Mum,could I go to my room? I wrote to Harry and I'm expecting his letter." Gabrielle gasped.
"'Arry Potter?" She said her hand in her mouth. She looked so innocent it sicked Ginny.
"Yes, Ron's best mates with him." George knew what it meant, everyone in the room knew. They knew that Gabrielle fancied
Harry and that Ginny had a recent realitionship with him.
"The one and only." Ginny said sarcasiclly. She wanted to get out, she needed time alone. Ron cleared his throat and said, "You know, I wrote to Harry also and I'm expecting his letter, too." Ginny smiled to herself, she knew what he meant.
"Could you probably give me hizz addrezz, pleazze?" Gabrielle asked Ron sweetly. Ron looked at her and then at Ginny.
Ginny looked pleadingly at him.
"Uh, sure." Ron said hesitantly. "Though I think that he's spening the rest of the summer with us. Right, Mum?"
Mrs Weasley looked startled, then recomposed herself. "Yes, if his relatives let him. Along with Hermione. Uh, Ron's other friend. You may rememer her, Fluer." She said looking at Fluer.
"Ah, Yezz, uh, bushy brown hair. She is 'ery forgettible, isn't she. she'z so zimple and really doesn't ztand out does she?" She said with such simplicity that it sonded like a honest-to-God insult, which she meant. Mrs Weasley pursed her lips, Mr Weasley looked out the window, the twins looked like they wanted to throw something at her, Charlie looked appaled, Bill looked surprised, Ginny looked like she was going to punch her and Ron, well Ron looked stone-faced.
"Look-" Ron started to say something, but Bill stopped him.
"Ron, why don't you go see if you have any mail?" He said in a hurry. "Yes, I'll do that. Ginny?" He said quietly. Both turned on their heels and left, as they left they heard Fluer ask, "Dizz I zay zomething wrong?" Ron had to stop her from going down stairs and seriously hurting her.

Harry looked out the livingroom window. The Dursleys had left him in the house alone. They had gone to a dinner meeting, where Mr Dursley was to impress some "extremly important clients" to get a pay rase because they wanted to go to go to the south of France on holiday.
Harry sighed. He moved to the couch, he had answered the Weasleys' letters. He had happily said yes to Ron's invitation, to stay with them the rest of the summer. But was put out a little on learning that not only was Fleur going to stay with them, but Fleur's little sister, Gabrielle. Harry knew that Gabrielle facied him, and having his ex-girlfriend under the same roof wasn't going to be pretty. He sat there for a moment an decided that he would try to keep them from each other, even though Ginny was in her house and she could be where ever she wanted.
"Auuuuggghhh! What I'm I suppose to do? How I'm I going to keep away from Ginny, if there's another girl that's after me?My ex-girlfriend and my wannabe girlfriend are going to drive me crazy this whole summer. The worst part is that I still have feelings for Ginny." Harry realized that he was talking to himself and that wasn't a good sign. "Ok, I better pack then, and be ready for anything and everything."
N/A: So finally the story is taking off, I'm sorry if the first chapter is a little dramatic, but that was for another story. I changed the plot when I had already sumitted the chapter. Anyway, I hope you like this chapter, I plan to add in a lot of catty behavior, and Hermione is going to join in those arguments. Please, Please R/R. I don't mind flames, well long as they help me with my writing and the story.
