Chapter 7
I opened the door and found Ron, Fred, Gorge, and Mr. Weasley in my front lawn looking staggered. Mr. Weasley was had an old hammer in his hand, Odd but whatever. I ran out and gave Ron a hug, then Fred and George, and last but not least Mr. Weasley.
I was so good to see them all. They were the closes thing to a family I had. My parents had been murdered, and things with Charlie and Renee were not great. I couldn't look at them the same way after learning they weren't my real parents, and they knew there was something different about me, something they couldn't understand. They would never say so, but I knew they thought I was a freak. That was all fine though, I had the Weasleys and Hermione, who I loved like a family.
"Come in, come in, I'm all ready to go I just need to go grab my trunk and Headwigs cage."
"We'll get it!" Fred and George said all ready bounding up the stairs to my room.
I turned back to Ron and Mr. Weasley
"How are we getting back to the burrow?" I asked, not seeing how they had gotten here in the first place.
"We will be taking the night bus. We used a pot key to get here, its quicker but it will be hard to get your stuff back with one."
Mr. Weasley said holding but up the old hammer, or apparently what was really a port key.
"Oh, have you heard from Hermione lately?" I asked Ron, I had last heard from her a week ago when she had called me from her parents house. She was also going to the cup with us.
"Yeah, I got a letter from her yesterday. She's going to get to the borrow tomorrow night."
That was good; we would be leaving the day after tomorrow for the World Cup. I was so excited I could hardly stand it! And best of all I would be going with my two best friends in the world.
Fred and George came down then with my trunk and Headwigs cage just then.
"Alright let's get going. Bella you're sure that you have everything you need?" I nodded and Mr. Weasley went on "good, Fred and George carry Bella's things to the curve and let's be our way."
We all walked out to the street and Mr. Weasley stuck out his wand. A moment later a huge triple layer purple bus pulled up, it had 'The Night Bus' written in gold on the side of it. I had ridden it once before, the summer right before my third year.
It was a crazy ride to the Borrow. The night bus was known for jerking this way and that with no warning at all. We all talked and laughed as Fred and George kept falling out of their chair every time the bus moved.
We arrived at The Borrow a few hours later. The second I walked through the door I felt at home. The Weasley home was loud, chaotic, and amazing. Dinner was just getting put on the table when we walked in. We all sat down to eat. We were having meat loaf, rolls, veggies and a very good looking apple pie for desert. Ginny and two men walked in. They were I supposed, Bill and Charlie, Ron's older brothers who were the only two of the family I hadn't met yet.
"Bella, these are my brothers, Bill," Ron pointed the taller of the two men. Bill was, cool. There was no other way to put it. He had long hair tied back into a pony that went to below his shoulders . He was wearing all leather from head to toe. A leather jacket, leather pants, leather boots that went to his keen. He looked as if he was getting ready to go to a rock concerts. The ear rings in his ears completed the look.
"And this is Charlie."
Ron finished. Charlie was built more like the twins. Shorter and brooder. He also had long hair, though not as long as Bills. His went to his chin instead. He had a lot of burns scares all over his body. His arms, hands and face were covered. Despite the scares, he was handsome.
I got up and shook hands with both of them smiling.
"It's nice to finely meet the two of you." I said smiling
"It's nice to meet you to." Bill said kindly.
Charlie just smiled and shook my hand. I had the feeling that he was the more shy of the two.
We all sat down again and started to eat. I sat listening to everyone talk. Fred and George were telling Ron, Ginny and Bill a very funny story about a prank they had pulled in Snape's class their third year. Percy, Mr. Weasley, and Charlie were talking about the possibility of re-integration of the vampire population into our world. Mrs. Weasley was busy making sure that everyone had enough to eat.
I was eating my meat loaf laughing at something Fred had just said about Snape and his need for a good shampoo, when something Percy said something that caught my attention.
He was speaking in a low voice to his father and Charlie. Had I not been sitting right next to Percy I wouldn't have heard him.
"Mr. Crouch says Fudge is going to sign the treaty with the Volturi, as long as they agree to the finely draft. They are trying to get more then they can get of coerce but it looks as though it will go through this time. Fudge really wants this to happen. It will look good with the tournament coming up this year," His voice dropped even lower, "they won't be allowed to compete of coerce, they won't know enough magic, but he wants to encourage people to try and make new connections and move on from the past. As much as we all hate that this is happening, it looks like it's going to happen…"
The other half of the table erupted into laughter and I couldn't hear what he said after that.
But from what I had heard it looks as if there would be vampire at Hogwarts this year. At least some members of the Volturi.
I really hope that would be it. Maybe no-mans and vampires like the Cullen's wouldn't want to learn magic?
One could only hope.
PLEASE REVIEW! I love to know what you all think, and please leave suggestions as to what you would like to see in the story :) The next chapter will be up by the 29th of September and maybe before that.
