I do not own any of the character in this story except for Kathleen and the plot.

Chapter 9

Kathleen arrived at the flat in the living room. She stood up and went directly for the phone, their were some people she needed to call if Ginny and Hermione were ever going to have their happily ever after and Kathleen would make sure they did, so with that thought in mind she dialed the phone.

"Hello, who am I speaking with?" Kathleen asked

"This is Tammy, I am the secretary for Kevin Stone, Head of Dragon reservation."

"Hello Tammy, I know it is getting late but is Mr. Stone in his office that I could talk with him please?" Kathleen asked patiently

"As a matter of fact he is, can I ask your name so I can tell him who is calling?" The secretary asked

"Of course, this is Kathleen Edwards, Administrative Healer at St Mungo's hospital for Magical Maladies and Injuries." Kathleen stated.

"Oh of course ma'm just one minute." The secretary replied.

Kathleen paced the floor while she waited, in about 2 minutes a man with a gruff voice answered, "Yeah this is stone."

"Hello Mr. Stone this is Kathleen Edwards from St. Mungo's hospital I was wondering if you needed any healers?"

"Well yeah I could always need healers, what's this about Miss?" Stone said.

Kathleen hesitated then looked to the photo on the wall of all three standing there smiling and laughing, with her mind made up she told Stone her idea.

Mean while at the Burrow

Harry and Ginny, Hermione and Ron finally decided to go inside the house as they seen Kathleen had already left and by the sounds of it Mr. and Mrs. Weasley were home.

As they walked into the kitchen they were all greeted with, "Congratulations!!!!!"

All four blushed but smiled holding on to their loves. Ginny and Hermione were greeted with hugs from everyone except Kathleen. When Mrs. Weasley had both girls in a bear hug at the same time, Ginny asked her mother, "Where's Kathleen did she go up stairs, we wanted to thank her."

Mrs. Weasley sighed and looked at her daughters; there was no way she could tell them where Kathleen went without telling the girls about the boys having to leave early. Some times this was the hard part of being a mother, so she just told them, "Kathleen said she needed to do something and she would be spending the night at the flat and that she would owl you tomorrow."

"What could she possible have to do; we all took vacation time at the hospital." Ginny told her.

"Yeah what made her leave early?" Hermione asked

"Well after your brother announced that he got an owl from his boss saying he had to leave early tomorrow, she said she had something to do, and let." Mrs. Weasley stated.

"WHAT!!!" Both girls exclaimed

Harry and Ron walked over to their girlfriends and hugged them. Harry spoke first saying, "Yeah, we have to leave tomorrow afternoon."

"Sorry we didn't tell you sooner." Ron told Hermione while she hugged him tighter.

"So all we have is tonight because you don't know when you'll be back here, right." Ginny said tears falling down her cheeks then looked to Hermione who was crying as well.

The boys just nodded.

The Weasley's all said good night rather quietly and left the couples alone, they all went their separate ways, Mr. and Mrs. Weasley, Alicia, Fred, George, and Angelina all went to bed while Harry and Ginny went to Ron's old room as Hermione and Ron went to Charlie's room to spend the night just holding each other, nothing sexual just holding on to one another, and enjoying the silence of their night together.

Charlie however went out side, he couldn't help but feel jealous of his siblings, they had finally got to tell the women they loved how they felt and now were spending the night in their respective lovers' arms. Charlie wanted to be sitting here holding Kathleen telling her that he loved her and kissing her, and just holding her, but he wasn't because he didn't get a chance to tell her. So here he sat looking up at the dragon star and wishing he could have his beautiful goddess beside him and stayed out all night watching the sun rise in the morning.

The next morning came too soon for Kathleen as she got dressed at 10:00A.M. And went into work, the night before she had spent thinking about her friends and how they must feel, and thinking about Charlie and how she would never get to see him again. She had finally gone to bed at around 7:00 that morning.

Kathleen arrived through the floo in her office and looked at her desk, which you couldn't see due to the mound of papers, she shook her head she would take care of that tomorrow when she came back. Right now she needed to do this for Hermione and Ginny, so she sat down at her desk and moved some paper work out of the way. Then reached inside her desk and pulled out 2 forms that were the same, on the top in bold lettering it said, "EMPLOYEE TRANSFER".

Kathleen sighed as she started to fill the forms out, she was going to miss them terribly but it was for the girls happiness, and for everything they did for her, she wanted to do this one thing for them, it wouldn't even come close as what they did for her but it would have to do for now.

After the paper work was done and filed, Kathleen sat down and started to write the hardest letter she had to write in her life, a good bye note to Ginny and Hermione.

By the time she was done Kathleen had tears streaming down her face, she put down the quill and rolled the parchment up and sent for the owl she had bought before she came to work, she told it to take it to the Weasley's at 1:00 P.M.

When she sat back down she pulled her knees to her chest and cried for the loss of her sisters and the only family she knew for 5 years, she cried for her lost love as she would never get to see him again, she cried over happy memories, bad memories, but she just needed to get it out of her system. When she was done, she calmed herself down and told herself that life went on so she headed down the hall to Fleur's room to get her ready for release.

At the burrow there were also tears, as it was about 1:00 P.M. everyone was in the back yard saying goodbye to the boys. Mrs. Weasley hugged Charlie and told him she WOULD see him at Christmas, he smiled and nodded then looked over at the once happy couples.

Harry and Ginny, Hermione and Ron were clinging to each other as their lives depended on it, and in a way it did, their life together. Both girls had tears streaming down their faces, the boys had tears in their eyes but didn't let them fall.

Mrs. Weasley was crying holding on to her husband, who had tears in his own eyes, when an owl came swooping down and landing gently beside her. Mrs. Weasley looked down to the creature she had never seen before but it was breathe taking, the red color of a phoenix and had gold on its wings. She bent down and the owl offered its leg, Mrs. Weasley picked up the letter and saw on the front, "To Hermione and Ginny"

Mrs. Weasley came over and handed the letter to Ginny who looked at the writing and said, "It's from Kathleen." At this Hermione came over and stood right behind Ginny as she opened it, as the girls read they got to one part and gasp, then started crying, hard.

Mrs. Weasley came over and hugged the girls, Harry and Ron came over and took them from her trying to calm them as Mrs. Weasley scanned the letter, as she did this she clutched her chest and teared up.

"What does it say mum?" Fred asked her.

Mrs. Weasley took a breath and began to read,

To my Dearest Sisters:

I am sorry I had to leave last night, but after I heard the news of Harry and Ron leaving early I couldn't bear to have you both hurt so badly, after you had just got them. So I came home and called Romania, (Don't worry I am taking care of that phone bill) and talked to Mr. Stone who has agreed to have you both come on as Healers for a week and if you like you can stay. IF you do decided to stay which I know you will, you both will be head healers, you girls can do it you're my best so don't be afraid, I have already filled the paper work out for the employee transfer here it's all taken care of. Mr. Stone is expecting you both to arrive with Harry, Ron, and Charlie.

Now I know you girls will do me right, and take this offer.

On a more personal note:

What can I say I will miss you; I am doing this to return the favor if only just a fraction for everything you have done for me.

I want to thank you for being here for me, and loving me as a true sister, and for sharing your laughter, your tears, and most of all your happiness. If you ever miss me I am only an owl away, oh yes the owl that brought this note is you're to keep her name is Aphrodite, kind of ironic isn't it Goddess of love.

Anyway if you every need me you know how to reach me, I love you both very much, and I will never forget everything you have done for me, thank you again for just being my family.

Good luck and take care,

Your sister,

Kathleen Marie Edwards

After Mrs. Weasley was finished reading everyone had tears streaming down their face. She looked to her daughters and said, "Be careful, and take good care of the boy."

Ginny and Hermione ran and hugged her tightly, crying. Fred and George were holding Angelina and Alicia who were crying; Mr. Weasley looked to his daughters and said, "You better get going."

They nodded and sniffed, said their good byes and were gone.

Meanwhile at the hospital Kathleen knocked on Fleur's door, and walked in. Fleur was sitting on the edge of the bed holding Daniel, Bill was sitting in a chair right across from her, while Desiree slept in her bed taking a nap.

At seeing Kathleen Fleur knew something was wrong, she handed the baby to Bill and went to Kathleen and hugged her and asked, "What happened?" Kathleen cried quietly into Fleur's shoulder, and then explained what she did for Ginny and Hermione.

"Oh Kathleen I'm sorry are the already gone?" Fleur asked her.

At Kathleen's nod she just held her tighter, Ginny and Hermione were they only family she had left and she gave them up so they could have happiness, which Kathleen was great full they were happy.

Kathleen stood back and said, "Sorry, I know I shouldn't feel this way but Ginny and Hermione have been my world for 5 years, I always felt responsible for them."

Fleur nodded as Bill joined them and said, "You know that your part of the Weasley's now so you not only got Hermione and Ginny but us."

"Thanks Bill." Kathleen said as he pulled her into a hug.

"Ok sorry about that are you ready to go home?" Kathleen said while drying her tears.

Kathleen pulled the paper work out and got Fleur and Bill to sign, gave them the instructions and checked the baby out and told them they were free to go. As Fleur, Bill and Desiree left the hospital Kathleen couldn't help but to feel alone. So she got her stuff together and went home.

When she got home she seen a note on top of her coffee table so she went and picked it up it read:

Kathleen,

Thank you for doing this for us, we will never forget this and we will make you proud, we love you and will be in touch soon.

We love you our sister,

Hermione and Ginny

Kathleen sat down on the couch and smiled through her tears, they were happy and that was all that mattered to her.

Life went on at the Weasley house as Arthur returned to work, Fred, George, Angelina, and Alicia went back to the joke shop, and Mrs. Weasley was still Mrs. Weasley. Even Kathleen was returning to her old work schedule. She even went to Mrs. Weasley after work to talk about missing the girls, who owled regularly, and confessed to loving Charlie, at which Mrs. Weasley was ecstatic about. Every thing was fine for about a week and then disaster stuck one early morning at 2:00 A.M……………………..
