A/N: PLEASE REVIEW!!! this is my first fanfic so i need all the help i can get. if it totally sucks and has no hope then tell me and i'll keep working one it!!! ;)

"oh my gosh...why does seven have to come so early?" Haley said groggily. "HALEY, IF YOU DON'T GET DOWN HERE WE ARE BOTH GONNA BE IN TROUBLE!!!" Harry, her brothers' voice came. "ALRIGHT ALRIGHT!!! I'm coming." As she went down the stairs she felt a strong muscular arm grab her's.

"Who the Cr- RON!!! Wait, you shouldn't be here. When Aunt Petunia and Uncle Vernon get home they'll have a fit!!!"

"That's why we're not gonna be here when they do!" he replied laughing. She gave him a 'don't-you-mess-with-me-this-early-in-the-morning' look.

"Trust me, if i were kidding i wouldn't be here this early in the morning, i know how you are!" he said laughing

"Oh, you know how i am huh? Well spider boy, I know how you can be too!"

"And that means?"

"It means i have 10 spiders in a jar up in my room!" The shear look of terror on Ron's face was priceless, so priceless in fact that when Fred and George came, Haley thought that they were going to die of laughter!

"What did you do to him, Haley?" Fred managed to spit out between fits of laughter. "He looks like he's seen a Bogart!"

"hahaha very funny Fred," said Ron sarcastically "I'll have you know, that it was much worse then that!" At that Haley couldn't help herself, she burst into laughter, Ron shot her a nasty look and tried to continue only to be stopped by more laughter at the look he gave her.

"Really?" said Fred smiling "What did she say that was so bad?"

"Sh...sh...she threatened me with spiders!" he replied blushing. George managed to spit out a "go get your stuff together Haley, so we can leave." before he joined Fred and Harry (who had just walked up) into a fit of laughter.

"Come on Ron, you can help me!" Haley winked.

"Don't do that, do you know what it does to me?" Ron blushed.

"Yeah," Haley laughed "why do you think i do it?"

So they headed upstairs to grab her stuff, in the middle of which started a pillow fight with Dudley's stuffed animals as big as Haley's bed. Haley had no idea why she felt this way about ron, she just knew she did. Every time she was around him, he made her feel, safe. When they linked hands she felt shivers go up her spine, and when he smiled at her, she couldn't help but melt. Ron always made her worries go away, even if they were enormous things like what if she didn't get a high score on her DADA O.W.L.S. What would she do if she couldn't protect herself and the ones she loved from harm. That didn't matter now though, she was with him and she was going to spend the rest of the summer, maybe even the rest of her life with him and that was enough to know. Right now anyway.

They finally finished packing her bags and headed down stairs where they were to 'floo' home just in time for lunch.

"Haley, don't you ever learn? You aren't gonna need all the stuff while we're at Hogwarts, or the Weasley's!" said a very amused Harry.

"Well, it makes me feel better to have it. So there!"

Haley stepped in the fire place and said very clearly "The Burrow" and almost out of no where she felt a jerk and started to spin. If she hadn't been expecting it she probably would have fallen over but she managed.

"Haley Dear! I'm So happy you've been able to come!" She heard the familiar comforting voice of Molly Weasley.

Haley ran over and gave Mrs.. Weasley a hug. "Where's your stuff dear?" "Ron's bringing it!" "Oh, about Ron, He told me you too are dating now?" Haley blushed. "yeah" "I didn't believe him when he told me. Didn't think he'd have the courage!" Came Bill's warm voice. Haley turned around and found herself and a great big bear hug with Bill Weasley. Closely followed by Charlie and Ginny. "I've missed you sooo much!!!" Haley announced. by this time Fred, George and Ron had arrived.

"mmm, lunch smells wonderful mum!" Ron complimented.

"Thank you dear!" Mrs.. Weasley replied with a smile then she redirected her attention to Harry, who had just arrived, and Haley. "I heard you two haven't been fed properly all summer! I don't understand why Dumbledore has you stay there. Well I guess I do, it's probably the safest place for you both! Anyway come come and we'll have some lunch!" She motioned for the door that led outside.

"Mum should I take Harry and Haley's stuff upstairs first?" Ron asked hopefully. Mrs. Weasley smiled knowingly. "Yes, I believe you should!"

"Um...I'll help!" Haley said.

First they took Harry's stuff to Ron's room and then they managed to get all five of Haley's bags to Ginny's room.

"OOF, there we go! I think next time you only get as much as you can carry!" Ron said laughing "Blimey i've missed you!"

He rapped his arms tightly around her. "if we hadn't come to get you I don't know what i'd have done!" he whispered in her her. She smiled and pulled back just enough to look him in the eye. "I've missed you too," she paused then gave a pouting look "and i'm glad you came and got me from my Tower and saved me from the 3 mean old dragons that had me locked there!" they both laughed still hugging. When someone burst in the door.

"We figured we'd find you here!" It was Harry and Ginny.

"Yeah, the two love birds on their first day back together! Ron I thought we were best mates and here i find you with my younger sister!"

"Younger by like what 3 minutes?"

Ron and Haley hand in hand, they walked outside for lunch

"ooo Ron and Haley sitting in a tree K.I.-"

"stuff a sock in it!!!"

"-S.S.I.N.G-"

"Mum, make 'em stop."

"Guys stop it or i'll test some of your own products on you!" Haley shot with a hint of amusement in her eyes.

"Oh nasty little threat." George said.

"Enough, start eating, I need you all to do me some favors when you're finished"
