GGgGgGgGg: It's curable, but deadly at the same time, like cancer. (or some forms of cancer that is.)









A/N~ This is gonna be another really quick chapter. But it is very important too! Something major about Charlie is going to be revealed, and it is VERY IMOPRTANT to do with the stories.





Now on to the chapter!

Chapter Thirteen



"Ron?" George repeated in a whisper, "Are you sure?"

Dumbledore nodded sadly, "Unfortunately, yes. Professor Vector fixed some portkeys to take you home. Your father told me that you could come home tomorrow after dinner. . ."

"Can't we go now?" Percy interrupted, "Ron is our *brother* and he's *dying*! I. . we want to be with him."

Dumbledore sighed, "Your parents are both at the hospital right now as we speak. Your brother, Charlie, is taking care of your little sister. If my memory serves me correctly, Charlie is twenty years old *and* engaged to be married this summer?"

The Weasley boys nodded sadly. None of them ever really talked about Charlie's more than girlfriend, Lindsey. They didn't like her very much.

"Well," Dumbledore said, "As responsible as Charlie is, men tend to act a little bit. . . different when they have a marriage coming up, and he's already watching your sister. Your father probably just doesn't want to put anymore pressure on him."

Percy was not ready to give up yet. "We won't bother Charley," he said, "We can take care of ourselves."

"We'll even watch Ginny for him," George added.

Not knowing what else to say that would help their argument, Fred, who hadn't said anything since Dumbledore told them about Ron, simply whispered, "Please."



Dumbledore's eyes softened, "Don't worry boys," he whispered, "tomorrow will come soon."

George looked Dumbledore straight in the eye, "but will it come for Ron?"













A/N~ Ooh how sad . . .

Please read and review!
