Chapter 48
Later that day the Weasleys along with Jackie and Harry arrived back at the Burrow after getting their supplies for School at Diagon Alley including the complete Lockhart collection. While everyone was talking about what happened with Arthur and Lucius Malfoy, Molly was still talking about Gilderoy Lockhart and how she had got his autograph.
"I hate that man seriously did you see the way he looked at us all and spoke to us and what that idiot said to poor Hermione" Jackie said angrily clenching her fists. George had never seen her so angry before and despite his own anger at the situation he wrapped his arms around her to ease some of her tension.
"Don't worry dad soon sorted him out" George told her as he kissed her temple.
"Yeah dad you were bloody awesome" Fred commented with a huge grin on her face.
"Did feel good to wipe that smug grin off his face" Arthur said.
"Arthur Weasley you should not be condoning violence in front of our children!" Molly screeched from the kitchen.
"Yes dear" Arthur said.
Jackie, George and Fred were upstairs in the twins room while the twins worked on one of their latest inventions Jackie was lay down on the bed still seething.
"It's not just Lucius it's his son I hated the way he walked around school last year and the way he was then in the shop just just…" Jackie started to say her face bright read in anger.
"Merlin's beard Jackie calm down!" Fred exclaimed looking over.
"Fred's right daisy you need to calm down before you explode or something" George said as he walked over to her and hugged her tightly before going back to their desk to finish what they were working on. Jackie picked up one of the textbooks she had brought earlier so that she could start to read it in preparation for the term ahead.
"George look" Fred whispered as he pointed over to George's bed where Jackie was lay fast asleep with the book covering her face.
"Bless her how on earth did she sleep with us two making a racket" George said as he walked over and sat on the edge of her bed taking the book from in front of her face.
"See you downstairs" Fred said as he walked out of the room and slid down the banister in search of food.
"Jackie wake up beautiful" George said as he leaned down and kissed her.
"George" Jackie whispered as she opened her eyes. She smiled as she saw It was him.
"You fell asleep" George told her.
"Oh sorry I didn't sleep well last night" she told him as she sat up and leaned against him.
"Why?" George asked.
"Worried about you of course" Jackie told him sleepily.
"Aww Jackie I'm sorry but you know you don't need to worry about me right" George said as he gently turned her face up so she was looking at him. "I love you" he whispered as he looked directly into her eyes.
"Love you too Georgie" she whispered back a small smile lighting her rosy lips her cheeks flushed.
Later that night Jackie walked into Ginny's bedroom ready for bed and saw the girl leaning over a book with a pen in her hand.
"What's that Gin" Jackie said as she looked at her as she sat down on her bed and climbed under the covers.
"Just a book" Ginny quickly said shutting it and putting it into her case ready for Hogwarts.
"You ok Ginny you look a little pale" Jackie said concerned.
"Yeah I'm fine just a long day seeing Harry and everything" Ginny answered her cheeks flushing as she mentioned him.
"You really like him don't you" Jackie giggled
"Yeah I do. Good night Jackie" Ginny said as she rested her head on her pillow and closed her eyes.
"Goodnight Ginny" Jackie said smiling to herself as she snuggled down into her pillow and settled down for the night to dreams of George and herself.
Once again thank you for my lovely reviewers for your feedback on the last chapters.
This one is only a short chapter that I wanted to share. Apologies its short I only got in from London late last night and so I've wrote this in the morning before I go out for the day. I will try and write more later tonight. The fourth year for Jackie and the twins will not be as covered in as many chapters as previous ones mainly because with the fifth year and the summer in between the fourth and fifth year there is going to be quite a lot of chapters. With the Egypt trip, Sirius escape, Jackie learning the truth etc.
All characters except Jackie Lupin belong to J K Rowling.
