"Miss Weasley do you have an explanation for this......"
Dumbledore looked expectantly at Ginny and she could feel the strangers gaze on her.
"I......I......." Ginny could barely get the sentence out. "My brother." Ginny finally said softly her big brown eyes full of tears.
Draco looked down at the petite girl, never had he felt sorry for her family though they were poor, but seeing her like this just filled his soul with sorrow.
"Professor I think it's time we relieve Miss Weasley of the burden of worrying about her brother."
When Ginny heard the stranger say this she looked up at him and let out an audible gasp.
"Malfoy!" she said surprised. The former Slytherin did not reply instead Dumbledore stood, "Very well, Miss Weasley follow me...... Mr. Malfoy please help Miss Weasley she's been through a shock."
When Ron saw Dumbledore walk into their common room with Malfoy following him, all but carrying his sister he immediately demanded to know what had happened. "Sit down Mr. Weasley, I will start form the beginning." Dumbledore said as he motioned to Ron to go into his room.
"Set her down Draco." Since Dumbledore pointed to his bed Ron guessed Dumbledore wanted Malfoy to put her down there.
"Your sister has been worried about you Mr. Weasley, in fact tonight when Mr. Malfoy found her she was going to go on her own little adventure and look for you....."
"Ginny you know better than that!" Ron scolded with a caring look.
"I'll leave you two to talk when you're done Mr. Potter will escort her back to her room." With that last sentence Dumbledore left, Draco following at his heel, so that the two siblings could talk.
"Ginny I'm sorry that you were worried about me but to run off, and at such dangerous times. You would have gotten yourselves killed!"
"I'm sorry Ron it's just that my whole life you've always been there being over protective yet loving in your own way. I would always see you and Harry and.....and Hermione going off on adventures. Even though you guys let me go with you my fourth year, to me that was a near death experience not an adventure. I thought....... oh Ron...... I don't know what I thought!"
"There, there Ginny, it's ok......I'm here now, don't cry."
"Ron...." was all Ginny could get out. At this point she was no longer crying but bawling.
"Ginny if you remember how you got here, I promise you can visit me anytime you want, I'll be here and welcome you with open arms!"
"Really!?"
"Yes really, now come on you should go to bed."
After Ginny had her talk with Ron she felt so relieved, she had wanted to tell him half of the words since she had first come to Hogwarts and had almost gotten killed. A Ginny opened the door to leave she found an anxious, tired, worried Harry waiting for her. When he saw her he began to leave and motioned her to follow but said nothing. As Harry and Ginny rounded the corner Ginny finally decided to say something.
"Thank you Harry.......Professor Potter." She said with a whimper.
"Why Ginny, you were always so sensible....why?"
"I missed my brother.......I........I thought he........I thought he was dead Harry. I would have thought you'd understand, after the Sirius thing, I mean-"
"Ginny, me going to save Sirius....it got him killed Ginny."
Ginny was sure she had seen a tear in his eye as he motioned Sirius had died because of him.
"Goodnight Harry." It was the only thing she could think of saying, they had arrived at the portrait of the pink lady.
