Chapter 10: To the Burrow
The orange rays from the sun woke Ron and Hermione.
Hermione went back to her flat across the hall to pack, Ron packed as well.
By the time 20 minutes passed, they were ready to go. They put their things in the back of their car. Hermione drove and Ron was in the passenger seat.
Ever since Hermione graduated from Hogwarts, she preferred muggle transport.
While Ron on the other hand, loved wizard transport, such as:
brooms, floo powder, apparating, or his personal favorite, enchanted cars.
After a few minutes of being on the road, Ron brought up a conversation.
"Maybe you should sell your flat so we can start saving up for a place of our own."
"Maybe that is the better thing to do," Hermione replied, her tone of voice sounding questionable.
"Hey! I think Ginny and Neville are looking for a place," Ron said, trying to avoid awkward silence, "they don't need anything big, even Ginny said so, and your flat is big enough for both of them."
Hermione smiled and said, "We'll ask her when we get there."
A few minutes of nothing but silence passed before Ron said, "Hey 'Mione… you know that I fell asleep after you did right?" "Yeah, what about it?" Hermione asked, her eyes still very much on the road. "Well… when you were asleep, Harry sent me this…," Ron said, reaching into his pocket and giving Hermione the note that Harry has sent him the night before.
Hermione grabbed the note from Ron's hands and slowed down a bit as she began to read it. After a few quick moments of reading, Hermione replied with exciting statements, saying, "Oh my gosh! This is really great! We can have a double wedding if Harry proposes to Cil'…"
Hermione gave the letter back to Ron and began to focus more on the road.
"Oh! Im sorry," Hermione apologized, realizing what she had just said, "that is… if you want to have a double wedding…"
Ron smiled and said, "We have to wait and see if Harry actually proposed first." Hermione chuckled.
About two hours later, Ron and Hermione found themselves entering the Burrow. As soon as Ron walked through the door, he saw a red-haired girl run towards him excitedly and happily shrieking "Ron!"
It was Ginny. Ginny was now 20, but she still had her youthful look. And by the looks of it, her 11 year old personality too. Ginny hugged Ron; something that she hadn't done in years. Without Ron, Ginny never felt the guidance and care of an older brother. Out of all of her brothers, Ron seemed to care about her the most. After all, he was the one who helped Harry save her from the Chamber of Secrets.
As she hugged Ron, she once again felt the warmth of her older brother. Ron's body felt much broader and stronger then it did before to Ginny as she hugged him tightly.
Must be from Quidditch Ginny thought.
A/N: The reason why I put Ron and Ginny's relationship as brother and sister so strong is because I belive that every brother and sister should have that kind of bond. Even though some of us don't. (including me)
