Oliver and Ginny arrived at the front of the burrow to hear a lot of shrieks and laughter from somewhere

'Come on' Ginny grinned and pulled Oliver around the side of the house to a very large field at the back which seemed to be crowded with people. Oliver was amused, it was hardly a Weasley picnic, he could see Angelina, Alicia and Katie apparently playing some form of kiss chase with Fred and George which was where the shrieking was coming from. A lot of people from Ron's year were laid on a blanket, Oliver recognised some of them, there was Seamus, Dean, Lavender and Parvati. Holding cans of some sort of alcohol in another corner were the older Weasley's, Arthur, Bill, Charlie and Percy, as well as some other friends of theirs. Mrs Weasley was the only Weasley missing, everyone gave them a very cheery wave before going back to whatever they were doing before, Oliver opened his mouth to say something, but was deafened by a large roar, followed by two raised voices

'Were you aiming for that tree?'

'If I say yes will you drop the subject?'

'Harry Potter you're just insufferable, first you make us come here by a highly dangerous and unreliable form of transport and now you make jokes'

'It's not dangerous, Sirius had it serviced yesterday'

'So why did it almost fall out of the sky when you turned that corner?'

'Because you didn't shift your weight properly'

'Don't even try to blame me, there is no way I'm going back on that thing'

'Fine, that doesn't bother me, you can walk' the voices had become louder and louder as they came round the corner and now Harry and Hermione finally came into view having an argument about something, which they stopped when they saw everybody looking at them

'Err hi' Harry offered as he rubbed his neck sheepishly

'You brought the bike?' Fred rushed up asking in breathless tones

'Yeah, Sirius lent us it'

'Wow, can we have a go?' George arrived next to Harry as well

'Sure'

'Excellent, come on Charlie, Harry said yes' George shouted to his older brother but everyone in the garden heard and Harry was almost crushed as every male sprinted round to get a look at the bike. Percy was left standing in the garden, and after looking around nervously at all the girls he too made his way to join his brothers in admiring the motorbike. Hermione was left open-mouthed as Harry made his escape as well 'Honestly, it's just a pile of scrap metal' she muttered as she went over to where all the girls had congregated.



After a good hour of admiring the bike and talking about the engine size, Oliver was giving serious thoughts about getting his own flying motorbike, it was almost as good as flying on a broom. Mrs Weasley called everyone round to where a large arrangement of food was laid, and for a few moments there was no sound except for the sounds of very hungry people eating very nice food. But soon everyone began to talk about school days, various Quidditch matches they had won, Fred and George's pranks, Snape's lessons and house elves (which Hermione had brought up).

The meal finished and Bill, Charlie and their friends all left to go and meet some other friends who were only in the country for a few days. Percy and Mr Weasley were in a very heated debate about a new law that was about to be passed, Oliver was talking to Mrs Weasley about how his mother had always used a nifty little charm that removed all stains from clothes. Everyone else was sat laughing at Fred and George who were chasing a terrified looking gnome round the garden, they had either had too much sugar or were even more crazy than Oliver had remembered them being.

'Fred's still hyper' Seamus observed the obvious

'He's like a puppy, just play a game with him and he'll calm down' Angelina shrugged as she pulled up strands of grass

'Game? Did somebody say game' Fred's eyes lit up scarily

'I know what game Fred wants to play' George said also with scary eyes and a wicked grin

'So long as it's not kiss chase' Ron said grumpily, he had apparently been on the receiving end of some of George and Fred's tricks in the past

'Honestly Ron, how immature do you think we are?' Fred asked looking hurt, Angelina rolled her eyes

'We want to play piggy back races' George said grinning as he pulled Alicia to her feet 'I chose Alicia'

'Angelina's mine' Fred said as he laughed evilly and swooped down picking her up and running off with her to shouts of 'Fred Weasley put me down now'

'Hermione, you'll go with me right?' Harry asked

'So long as you don't crash me into a tree like you did with the bike' Hermione said seriously, Harry scowled and stuck his tongue out at her

'Lavender, you want to show them all how it's done?' Ron said as he bowed and offered his hand to Lavender, she grinned in return

'Katie, we can beat them right?' Seamus said confidently

'Parvati, you want to go with me?' Dean asked as he turned to the girl next to him

'Ok, Gin you're with Oliver unless Percy wants to play' George yelled to them, an evil glare came his way from Percy who was still trying to convince Arthur of the merits of two handles on a cauldron, 'I'll take that as a no' George said hurriedly

'Hang on, from where to where?' Harry asked, as he realised that he had no idea which direction he was meant to run in

'Here to that tree' Fred who had returned said pointing to a tree in the far distance 'Ready, set, go' he yelled suddenly and ran off with Angelina on his back laughing wildly, shouts of 'cheat' and 'unfair' followed him until everyone realised that if they didn't start soon Fred would win easily.

'We better get going' Oliver said, bending down slightly so Ginny could get on his back, they had started last but Oliver quickly made up the distance on George and Alicia who were running round wildly in circles apparently either lost or not bothering. Dean and Parvti had stopped to argue about sexism, with Parvati claiming that boys weren't necessarily stronger than girls, Dean maintained that they were. Oliver managed to overtake Seamus and Katie, and then Harry and Hermione who had somehow banged into another tree causing an argument about the bike again.

'Only Fred and Angelina, and Ron and Lavender left now' Oliver said

'Well get a move on slow-coach' Ginny said jokingly

'Ok' Oliver put on a burst of speed which left Ginny just clinging onto him hoping that she didn't fly off. As it turned out Fred and Angelina didn't need to be overtaken as they had stopped for a rather passionate kissing break, Oliver was gaining on Ron and Lavender, but Ron glanced over his shoulder and saw them coming

'Hang on' Oliver gritted his teeth as he talked to Ginny, he sprinted as fast as he could, but Ron could move extremely fast and collapsed exhausted but grinning as he passed the finishing tree first, he was bright red from exhaustion. He got even redder a few seconds later when Lavender gave him a quick kiss on the cheek, Ginny laughed at her brother's obvious embarrassment as she jumped off Oliver's back. Everyone else finally joined them (although Fred and Angelina took longer than everyone else did), and they found out who had won

'Oliver you're meant to be a professional athlete but you got beaten by Ronniekins' Fred said in mocking disbelief

'That's terrible' George said sadly, they were ignoring the fact that Harry played Quidditch as well probably because Harry was getting a lecture from Hermione on how many accidents could happen if they flew home on his broom

'Very sad' Fred added until an elbow in the ribs from Angelina shut him up

'Hey Gin, that could be a new advert, Oliver Wood Quiditch master beaten by that Weasley who can't even get a girlfriend' George wasn't going to be shut up even if somebody elbowed him the ribs, he was intent on making up for lost time in teasing Oliver

'Hey' it was Ron's turn to be indignant

'What? It's true' George defended himself

'I could get a girlfriend if I wanted' Ron said looking half-thoughtful and half-embarrassed

'Go on, if you have a girlfriend in 1 minute then we'll give you 100 galleons' Fred and George laughed at what they thought was their own cleverness, Ron sat in silence looking at his watch, with only ten seconds left he yawned widely

'Oh Lav, you wanna go out with me?' Ron asked casually without a hint of embarrassment

'Definitely' Lavender grinned widely at everyone's shocked faces

'Oh dear, time's up' Angelina said grinning at a very shocked Fred and George

'Wow, so where do you want to go on a date? My lovely brothers can pay for us to go anywhere' Ron said smugly

'No fair, we've been set up' Fred protested

'Now, now Fred dear, don't be such a sore loser' Angelina was practically crying from all the laughing she was doing

'You're in on it too, it's a conspiracy' Fred cried out

'You're right dear brother, lies, blasphemy, deceit' George said in mock horror, he was taking it slightly better than Fred but didn't look very happy at the prospect of parting with that amount of money

'Fine, Ron can have the money, but Angelina you don't get away that lightly' Fred growled as he turned on Angelina, they sat silently looking at each other for a few moments until both moved at the same time. Fred dived to grab Angelina but she had already rolled out of the way, and cried 'Accio Motorbike', she gave a very cheeky wave as she flew off on Harry's bike, Fred wasn't to be beaten 'Accio Firebolt' he cried as he leapt onto the broom and gave chase to a giggling Angelina.

'Hey, they're both mine' Harry said sadly as he watched Sirius' bike and his broom fly away

'Oh well, they were dangerous anyway' Hermione said unsympathetically

'I'll just walk home with you' Harry said with a shrug

'If you walk, you'll be walking by yourself because I'm taking the bus' Hermione said reverting to her smart-alec tone

'Oh, that's quite smart really, I think I'll come too' Harry looked sheepish at having not thought of it.

Oliver was busy making plans to meet up with Percy and Percy's girlfriend next week, after he had done that he found Mrs Weasley with Ginny in the kitchen

'Thank you very much for the lovely meal Mrs Weasley' Oliver said politely

'That's quite all right Oliver, and call me Molly' Mrs Weasley patted him on the back fondly

'Sorry it's just habit' Oliver said sheepishly, 'I'll probably see you soon' he held out his hand to shake but Mrs Weasley pulled him into a tight hug, he could see Ginny sat on one of the counters grinning at them

'Make sure that you do, you're welcome anytime' Mrs Weasley said as she wiped her hands on her apron and left the room

'Well you certainly made a good impression with her' Ginny said impressed

'It's just my winning charm I guess' Oliver shrugged with a grin

'I see, well I'll see you soon' Ginny laughed at him

'Thanks for inviting me' Oliver said

'I'm just very glad you came' Ginny said as he prepared to apparate to his apartment, she suddenly thought of something really important 'Oh Oliver don't worry we'll win the piggy back race next time'

Oliver laughed and gave her one of his winning grins just before he apparated. Ginny smiled at the spot where he had stood seconds before and turned to go and find Ron to tease him about his new girlfriend.
