Ginny looked at her twin brothers suspiciously, "Fred, George… how did you get here? I mean, I'm glad you're both here… but you already graduated. What about your business?

"Oy, Ginny. We own the joke shop. Thanks to Harry and Ced!" Fred had been talking and looked over at Harry but his eyes had obviously saddened at the thought of Cedric. "So we can come and go as we please. You know we have our apparition licenses. Plus, Ced was a good friend of ours."

Ginny smiled as she hugged her two brothers. She still wasn't as tall as they were. They returned the hug and George wiped a tear of Ginny face smiling down at her. "Gin, don't get all sappy! You don't want Ced seeing you like that do you?"

"What do you mean seeing me George?" Ginny looked at her brother who continued walking forward to the pitch. "George Weasley, tell me now!"

George only coughed a little and continued walking as Harry stopped next to Ginny. "Ginny, will you be alright tonight. I know how much you miss Cedric and I just don't want you to get too overly upset!" Harry had in fact become just like a brother. He was talking to her in the same way that Charlie would have. This made Ginny a little happier at the thought that Harry cared about her like Ron did.

"Get away you over grown git!" Ron stopped next to them and smiled at his best friend giving Ginny a hug. "Your new 'brother' isn't giving you a hard time is he sis?"

Ginny punched Ron in the arm and smiled. She watched as the walked towards the pitch themselves. Ginny still stood where she had stopped. Her mind once again flooded with memories.

"Harry, can I ask you a question?" Ginny looked up innocently into to Harry Potter's eyes. It was the end of her first year and Harry had just saved her from Tom Riddle.

"Okay Ginny." Harry looked apprehensively down at Ginny Weasley; his best friends kid sister. He had and inkling of what she would ask but didn't want to sound rude.

"Would you ever um…" Ginny let her eyes graze themselves on to the ground as she finished the sentence, "Would you ever consider me as more than just your best friends kid sister?"

Ginny looked back up into Harry's bright green eyes as a smile flashed on to his face. "Oh Ginny, I can't think of you that way."

"But why? I'm just as nice as the other girls here!" Ginny could feel the tears welling up in her eyes as she continued staring into to Harry's. Harry still let the grin play across his face.

"I can't because… you are like a little sister to me." Harry continued smiling down at her as Ron walked into the common room coughing to let them know he was there.

Ginny smiled while thinking 'Great, that's all I need. Another brother'. "Really Harry! You think of me as your kid sister too? Not just some pathetic first year?"

This comment took both Harry and Ron by surprise. Why would anyone think of Ginny Weasley as a pathetic first year. Then it hit them. They looked at each other mouthing one word 'Malfoy'.

"Ginny, why would I think of you as a pathetic first year! Whoever thinks that is a major loser! You are a very sweet person and you are there for anyone that needs you!" Harry smiled looking over towards Ron who grinned back. Harry leaned down walking out of the common room towards the great hall.

Ginny said the only two words she could find, "Wow!"

~*~

A finger tapped Ginny on the shoulder. Looking behind her she saw a very familiar face. Hagrid had decided to join them also. He had a tear in his eye as he leaned down and whispered into her ear. "I miss him also little Weasley!" Where had that name come from? Despite the fact that Hagrid had called her 'Little Weasley' she smiled and gave Hagrid a hug conjuring up another candle and handed it to him.

"I know Hagrid! I can tell in your eyes how much you miss him." Ginny smiled and watched as Hagrid walked over to the others. He was greeted with a couple of sniffles but the mood relaxed as a joke was told about Cedric and his episode of tripping in the great hall.

Ginny remained standing in the spot she had stopped in and watched as Nick Diggory walked towards her reaching out his hand to her. "Come on Ginny. We need to go in now."

Ginny nodded and took Nick's hand as they walked into the Quidditch pitch. They were the first to enter followed by Hermione and Victor, then Harry and Ron, Fred and George and finally Hagrid. As they walked in Ginny saw that the Quidditch pitch had a thin layer of mist floating over top of it. Once again Ginny was thrown into another memory.

"So Cedric… Why'd you come to visit me? Especially here in the burrow!" Ginny gestured to the small house that was behind them. Cedric had suddenly appeared on the Weasley doorstep on a rather hot day during the summer. At first they though he was there for maybe Fred or George but he asked for Ginny.

"You remember that promise I made to you Ginny? You know, at the beginning of last year." Cedric looked at her and she nodded. She remembered it very well. "Well, I have a problem!"

"What's your problem about Cedric?" Ginny looked at Cedric curiously and went on, "I'm sure I can help you with it. Well, at least I hope I can help you with it."

"Well you see, I had this dream…" Cedric stopped and looked around making sure that no one was listening. Ginny in turn looked over at the window that looked out from the burrow only to see Fred, George, Ron, Harry, Charlie, and Bill staring out the window as Percy scolded them for listening in on private conversations. Ginny gave them only scowl and watched as they backed away from the window.

"Sorry about them, they can be a little nosy at times." Ginny grinned at Cedric and he returned it with a thankful expression showing. "So, what about this dream?"

"Well, in it, it is really dark outside. It is like my birthday or something. I saw a lot of people. There was you, my little brother, Ron, Harry, Hermione, some guy I don't know, Fred, George, and Hagrid. And you were all standing in the Quidditch field. The weird thing is, you all had candles and you up near me… but I wasn't me… I was a… a…" Cedric stopped and looked a Ginny concerned.

"You were a what Cedric?" Ginny looked back at Cedric whose face was starting to turn a ghostly pale white color.

"I was a ghost Ginny. The field it was covered with a weird mist that was glowing blue or something. I was talking to you and you were crying." Cedric's eyes became rather misty themselves. He was about to go on when a voice entered their conversation.

"Come on Ced! Why did you want to talk to my kid sister? I didn't know you too were friends! Hey wait a second… are you to going out? Have you been snogging?" Fred walked toward them with a grin on his face. He enjoyed teasing Cedric… and of course Ginny!

"Why would you think we had been snogging? With a good friends little sister? No, I just needed to talk to her." Cedric smiled and walked off leaving Ginny to herself.

Ginny stood at thought to herself, 'What would be so wrong with snogging with me?'. She shrugged and walked back to the burrow.

Ginny looked over the mist, which had started to glow a light blue color. The tears that had been waiting so long to fall began to seep out of her eyes and roll slowly down her cheek. She looked over at Nick and he embraced her in a hug telling her everything was alright.
