Chapter 2

"Boy get down here." I heard Aunt Petunia call up to me. I went straight to the stairs where I could see everyone was gathered by the front door. I walked down and landed on the last two steps. "Boy take Ginny up to where she will be staying and both of you just stay up there till dinner, got it?" she demanded and I nodded.

Ginny came over to me from where she had been standing by the door. All I could think is 'wow time dose a lot to people.' She looked different, but wow, she had changed in a good way. Her hair was still as long and fire red as before, but now it suites her. She was now a lot taller, perhaps only an inch or two smaller than me. I could see in her big brown eyes that she had aged.

I led her upstairs without a word and she followed. We both, I guessed, wanted a private reunion. Once we got to my room, I opened the door and let her in first.

"I know it's small and cramped but it's all I've got" I said. She just looked at me and smiled. I could see in her eyes that she appreciated it anyways.

"I think that it's better than the closet that I live in at home, or the cupboard that you used to live in." she said. "It's good to see you again, Harry".

"It's good to see you too Ginny. I have to say, before you tell me that I don't have to, I have to apologize for leaving you." I say in one breath. I shut the door and moved to sit at my desk. She moved to sit on the bed.

"You don't have to apologize, Harry. If I had been in your shoes, and I had gotten an opportunity to leave and go to school I would have taken it. Harry, I don't blame you for anything." she said.

"Yes I do need to apologize, Ginny. Look it's not like I don't know what Peers and Dudley probably put you though. Without me, you got twice the beating didn't you?" I asked and I saw that she flinched. "You did." There is one thing about Ginny you have to know about; she is strong, and she does not break, she does not cry. But today she proved me wrong.

I moved over and hugged her while she cried into my shoulder. She clung to the back of my shirt for dear life. After a while she stopped and let go. I pulled back and I wiped the tears from her face, and she smiled.

"Thanks. I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done that. Here I am crying and while you've offered me a place to stay and I just shouldn't have done that." she said. She looked at me and I could see in her eyes that she meant what she said.

"No you needed to get that off your chest and I'm happy to be here to support you. I left and I'm happy to do this for you." I said. She just smiled and gave me a small hug.

"Er, Harry why do you have an owl in your room?" asked Ginny, who was looking over my shoulder. We pulled apart and I looked over to Hedwig who was just eyeing us with suspicion. I got up and moved over to Hedwig cage and rubbed my figures on her back.

"Ginny this is Hedwig don't worry she doesn't bite. Well, I hope not. We'll have to see if she likes you. But anyways she's my pet." I explained. Ginny came over to stand beside me. She kept her hand in her pockets, and smiled at Hedwig.

"Oh you're such a pretty girl aren't you, very beautiful." she said to Hedwig. Hedwig looked at her and I could see her eyes soften. So I took Ginny's hand out of her pocket and pushed her hand towards to cage. She took the hint and put her fingers through the bars and rubbed Hedwig's head and smiled.

"Boy, come down here for a second" I heard Aunt Petunia yell from down stairs. I looked over at Ginny who smiled sympathetically. I walked past her and went down stairs.

When I was finished with the endless task of bringing everyone things in to their rightful rooms, I went back to mine, where I saw Ginny sitting on the bed with the photo album I had left open and a picture that wasn't mine in her hand. I went to stand beside her to look.

"Harry where did you get this photo of my mum?" asked Ginny who was comparing the woman in the photo of my parents wedding day to the same woman in her picture who was holding a baby in a hospital bed.

"I honestly didn't know that was your mum, Gin this picture was taking the day of my mum and dad's wedding. You see this is them." I said while pointing at my mum and dad.

"Well I guess it's no surprise that our mums were friends, seeing that our Aunts had known each other since birth."She said. I went and sat behind her.

"Yeah I should have known" I said as I looked down at the picture of her mum holding her as a baby.

"Did your aunt give you the picture?" I inquired, pointing at the picture in question. She just smiled.

"Nope, she had me clean the attic last summer and I found a box and this was in it. So I took it, it's not like she going to miss it really." She said.

"Yeah, you look just like her."I say. She turned her head to look at me

"You think so?" She said and I just nodded. She looked happy after that. Then we were both called down to help make the dinner.

At dinner you found the Durlseys and the Perkins sitting and eating at the dining room table, but you would find Ginny and Harry eating on the counter.

"So Vernon, I've been wondering, where does boy go to school?" asked John Perkins. I turned and looked over at them, and in the corner of my eye I could see Ginny listening to.

"The boy goes to That School" said Vernon.

"Oh really, I thought you weren't going to send him." stated John. He knows? I could feel Ginny's eyes on me.

"We weren't, but this ... Person barged in and told him, so now he goes. The man was a monster! He broke down the door. You're lucky nothing like that happened with the girl." Uncle Vernon explained. Wait what? 'Nothing like that happen to Ginny...' but that doesn't mean... But of course our mum's knew each other, and our fathers must have too... I snapped my head to look at Ginny, then turned it to our Uncles.

"You had no right" I yelled "I should have known. She belongs at the school." I said the family's turned to look at me.

"Yes, she may belong there but it doesn't mean she is going to go. Unlike you she didn't have parents to pay for her schooling, thank God" said John. I was out raged. Why didn't Dumbledore do something about this?

"But it's her right to go. It's where she belongs. It's what her parents would have wanted." I yelled. I knew that Ginny had no idea what was going on but I had to do this.

"Her parents didn't know anything, they were nothing" said John.

"It is still where she belongs." I yelled and I couldn't take it anymore. I left the kitchen and ran out of the house.
