A Summer to Remember

AN: Okay this is my first GWSB fic. Actually it's my first HP fic at all. This is just the prologue. I plan for the next chapters to be much longer. I would like a Beta if anyone would be willing. I'm not really sure how long it's going to be, but I'm trying for more than ten thousand words, so enjoy!

Prologue

Ginevra Weasley walked into number 12 Grimmauld Place at five-foot-one, 17 years old, with blood red hair, and a cocky grin.

It was the summer before her seventh and last year at Hogwarts. Harry had left, along with Ron and Hermione, in search of the last remaining horcruxes. Of course, she was angry at being left behind, but she couldn't help but make the best of things.

The way she saw it, she had a summer with plenty of the twins' humorous antics, no Hermione lectures, no overprotective Ron, and no awkward Harry. Of course her mother would be there, but there were always trade-offs.

As she walked in, confidence radiating from her, she slid into a seat, ready to tuck in for breakfast.

"Hey, Sirius!" Ginny greeted happily as the tall, dark man entered the room with a similar grin on his face.

"How are you, Gin? Haven't seen you since winter break." He started to vigorously shove Molly's delicious cooking into his mouth.

After a couple of seconds of silence he looked at Ginny, wondering what was wrong.

Ginny's jaw had dropped when she saw what had happened to Sirius. Slowly, her shock overcome, she began to snicker, which then led to chuckling, which then led to outright laughter, which then led to choking, and finally back to laughter.

Poor Sirius was confused to say the least. "What are you laugh-." Comprehension dawned in Sirius' eyes. "The twins don't happen to be staying with us, do they?"

"Well-" Laugh. "-for a-" Snort. Ginny paused and counted to ten, trying to calm down. It didn't help. It only resulted in her laughing so hard she fell off her chair.

Sirius suddenly roared, "What could be so funny!"

Ginny told herself that it really wasn't that funny, but she couldn't stop laughing. I mean "I love Snape" scrolling across Sirius' face? Not that funny. It was just so… random!

After Ginny calmed down she told Sirius to go look in a mirror. He stomped up the stairs wondering what had made Ginny laugh so hard.

Ginny just waited in serene silence counting down to herself.

"Five… Four… Three… Tw-"

"Ahhhh!" Sirius scrambled down the stairs shrieking and clawing at his face.

Ginny just rolled her eyes. "Honestly, Sirius! You're a grown man, not to mention a wizard with a wand. Hmm? Are we making any connections here?"

Sirius suddenly stopped, looking sheepish. He pulled out his wand, muttered a spell and decided he would take a leisurely stroll up to a certain pair of twins' room.

Ginny thought, "Men!" as she silently ate her breakfast wary of the two full grown men bounding down the stairs, followed by another grown man with a maniacal grin on his face. "Well, this will certainly be an entertaining summer," she thought as she heard the twins' horrified shriek and Sirius' proud laughter echo throughout the headquarters.
