And Back To Ronnikins
Ron slammed the door and flung himself onto his bed. His eyes stung. "Why? Why of all people?" He sobbed. He was too wrapped up in himself to notice the door creep open behind him. Percy was home for a short time before heading back to work when he heard the door slam. He somehow knew it had been Ron. After all, Ron was the Weasley with the worst temper. "Ron?" "Go away." Ron snapped and turned his head to stare out his small window. "You sure?" Ron picked up his copy of Hogwarts, A History and tossed it at his brother. He heard a thump as the book hit the door. "Just go away." He moaned into his pillow and tried to sleep.

Percy frowned as the book hit the closed door. Something was bothering his brother. He went down the rickety stairs and found George sitting in the kitchen. "George?" "Huh?" The twin was poking his wand at a blue lump on the table. "What's Ron's problem?" "Hermione came by and left with Ginny." Percy bit his lip in concentration. "Where did they go?" "To see Harry at Hogwarts." Fred joined his brother at the table. He took out his wand and muttered a quick spell. The blue lump turned yellow and began bouncing up and down on the tabletop. "Check that out!" George chuckled. "Good one, Fred!" Percy sighed as he exited the kitchen. "I'm going to find out what's going on." Fred's voice drifted from the kitchen, "Leave it alone, Perce! Ron's just being a git!" "I am not!" Percy turned to find Ron standing on the stairway. "Ron?" "I'm going to see Harry. I'll be back later." Ron shoved his way past his older brother and grabbed a handful of Floo Powder. "Hogwarts!" He stepped into the green fire and vanished in a whoosh.
