The next morning Ginny was feeling more nervous then she had ever felt before. She had packed her suitcase with all the necessary items she might need for a month ( as she wasn't sure about the duration of her stay with Harry). At the moment she was pacing back and forth in her peach sun dress, her hair tied loosely in a pony tail going over the list of questions she needed to ask Dumbledore.

Yes, the prospect of seeing Harry again had created a turmoil in her, but by now her mind had come to accept it, though her heart was still running a million miles a minute. O who was she kidding! Ginny was a complete wreck and she knew it was entirely her own fault.

" Aah, I see you are all set for your trip Miss Weasley!" Dumbledore's voice startled her and she jumped a foot in the air clutching her heart. " Professor Dumbledore? When did you get here?" still trying to calm her overactive nerves.

Dumbledore smiled merrily. " Sorry didn't mean to scare you, I just arrived a few moments ago. I was just talking to Arthur about your trip."

Ginny looked up to see her dad standing behind Dumbledore. She had informed her family last night about her decision to help Harry. They were all very supportive and Mrs. Weasley had burst into tears and had given her a tight hugHarry was really like her seventh son. " O my darling little girl" she had said gently rubbing her unscarred side of the face with her thumb and kissing her forehead. " Every thing will be alright, I am so proud of you." Ginny had hugged her back with just as much emotion as her mother.

She knew then she had made the right decision. Harry was needed by her family. Her father and brothers had each given her a hug and she knew they would stick by her no matter what. This was the first time she was leaving her family since the first battle. She knew she was going to miss them a lot. She tucked a stray strand of her copper red hair from her face behind her ears as she walked towards her father.

" Daddy, you didn't have to wake up this early, I could have shown my self out." she said given him a hug.

Arthur Weasley had aged a considerable amount in physical appearance in the two years. His eyes were tired and wrinkles were starting to show. He smiled at his daughter. She had grown up to be a beautiful woman. He was crushed when he had first seen her burns and found out about it being incurable, but his daughter was still as beautiful to him as she was when he had held him in his arms 19 years ago. No scars or burns could take her inner beauty away from her it reflected from her like a lighthouse in a stormy night.

" I know, but you are my lil girl.. It will be hard for me not to see you for that long. So I'd rather say a proper good bye. He said hugging her back.

Ginny turned to Professor Dumbledore when the moment was broken. " I am ready Professor, though I have a few questions."

" As you should Miss Weasley. So I will explain everything err..in a little more clearly and after that I can answer any questions you might have".

Ginny nodded as a gesture for him to continue.

" Knowing Harry's nature Miss Weasley I am certain he is going to shut the door on your face if he finds that you have found out his carefully planned hiding.."

" But Prof. How am I supposed to help him if he shuts the door on me right from the beginning?"

Ginny interrupted.

" I wasn't done speaking Miss. Weasley.." Dumbledore said smiling slightly. " Yes I am aware of the fact that you couldn't help him if that remained the case, however to our advantage an opportunity has presented itself. Harry has advertised for a housekeeper"

Comprehension dawned on Ginny's face. " You want me to go in as his housekeeper? But won't Harry recognize my voice? He is blind not deaf"

" Right again Miss Wealey but that can be fixed " he muttered something silently as he pointed his wand at her.

" Wha what did" she started but stopped. This voice did not belong to her it was infact very high pitched... almost to the point of sounding annoying. " Prof. Are you sure abt this tone? "

" Harry will have no doubt after he listens to that, that you are indeed a house keeper." " He let out a small laugh. " But remember you are restricted to do magic in his neighbourhood. He is a very powerful wizard and can sense magical activities that occur around him. You are to ask for a 450 pound monthly pay with room and board included. He had advertised for 440 but I know he expects to pay higher. You are to stay for a year but you can get holidays and such if required. I really appreciate your effort and even if nothing works out this gesture on your part means a lot to me. All the best Miss Weasley and O before I forget this is a muggle bus ticket it will lead you to the bus stop right across from his apartment. His number is 11" He said handing her the piece of paper.

Ginny looked at it. Well she thought this is it...
