Chapter 4: Care and Reminiscing
Ginny woke up to the sound of a male's voice calling her name quietly.
"Ginny! Wake up!" whispered the voice in her ear. Ginny opened her eyes finally when he started to shake her. She saw Fred's head floating in the air looking at her. He was shaking her softly. She sat up and looked bleary-eyed out the window. Fred was looking at her in amazement.
"You're bloody brilliant Ginny!" he whispered with excitement. Ginny then remembered what it was that made her so "bloody brilliant."
"What are you doing in here? You're supposed to be in your room! What if mum goes in your room?" Ginny asked worriedly. She looked to the door as if she were trying to see through the solid wood. She looked back at Fred who was looking out the window at fellow their family members outside.
"They're outside messing around. I seriously doubt any of them would come in to see what room I'm taking up space in," he said, looking back to Ginny who stood up and was looking through the window. "You know? What you did was the only thing I wished could have ever happened to 'Perfect' Percy!" Ginny was only half listening to her brother. She had become extremely drowsy again. She turned around and sat down on the bed again, pulling the covers over her legs and laying down. Fred stood up. "What are you? Tired?" Ginny looked at him.
"Yeah, I'm tired. I'm seriously not a strong person. All that action made me exhausted!" she said, trying to stifle a yawn. She started to lie down but jumped up again when she felt something crawling on her leg. "What was that?" she yelled. Fred looked at her and then started to laugh hysterically. Ginny picked up a rubber spider.
"Oh, my little sister, I couldn't possibly come into a room and not joke around! It's my nature!" Fred continued to laugh but then stopped when Ginny dropped the spider when it started to move in her hands. "Hey be careful! George loves those!" They were looking at it as it struggled to flip onto its feet. "Aw. You made him fall on his back! You're so mean!" Fred teased.
"Why'd you guys cast a spell on a spider? What were you trying to do? Scare the crap out of Ron?" Ginny said with a smirk. Fred looked at her with an innocent look on his face.
"Maybe, why?" he asked. Ginny giggled and then sat down on her bed again, checking for any other tricks and critters hidden within her bedding. Fred chuckled at this sight.
"No reason. What were you going to do, leave it on his face when he was sleeping?" she looked at him curiously.
"I'm not THAT mean! I was only going to make this bugger about four times bigger and stick it in his bed and then another one and make it sit on his broomstick until him and Harry decided to go play Quidditch. That's not as bad, is it...?" Ginny laughed at her brother and his plans but as soon as Fred said this, the spider finally managed to flip over and then crawl towards the door with great speed. Fred looked at the spider and began to panic as he ran towards it. "Grab the spider!"
Ginny wasn't paying attention to the spider when it started crawling away but she looked and panicked as well, and at her older brother's command, she went after the spider. Fred went after the spider as well but Ginny was much quicker and grabbed the spider by the abdomen. Fred stopped when he saw that she grabbed the spider and then sat on the bed.
"Oi! That was a close one! Our plans would've been ruined! Thanks for saving George and me!" Fred told Ginny as she handed him the spider. Ginny leaned against the wall and looked at the spider and Fred.
"No problem. I actually want to see what Ron does when he sees it!" she said pointing to the spider. George walked into the room as Ginny was pointing at what was in Fred's hands.
"Ginny! What happened to your hand?" George asked his sister worriedly after he shut the door. He looked at what Ginny was pointing to and then looked back at her hand. It was bleeding. Ginny pulled her hand back to her and started examining it. She discovered two fang marks on her palm but as soon as she saw them, her hand was pulled away by George to be examined. "You were bitten by something! Look! Fang marks!" he said pointing them out to the other two in the room.
"Ginny's hurt? I want to see!" Fred said anxiously as he pulled his wand from his pocket and put the spider down. "Stupify!" he said quickly as red sparks shot from his wand, hitting the rubber spider, causing the spider to lie lifelessly on the bed. Fred looked at Ginny's palm and then looked at Ginny. "What bit you? The spider?" he said pointing at the bed's general direction.
"Well, since I know that YOU didn't bite me then it had to be, didn't it Fred?" Ginny said as she was looking at her wounds. "It wasn't poisonous was it Fred? George?" Fred looked at George and laughed.
"It's a rubber spider! C'mon, Gin! Use your mind! It wasn't real!" George said, trying not to laugh, though he was failing to do so. He ended up laughing after telling Ginny. Ginny started to laugh at herself.
"Well it bit me and it's bleeding so it was real to me!" she said laughing. Fred stopped laughing and hit George in the stomach as he tried to get his attention.
"Hey! Hey, George! What are we going to do about her bleeding and her bites?" Fred asked. George stopped laughing and looked at Ginny's palm again and saw the blood dripping from the bites.
"I think I know what to do," George said as he pulled his wand from his shirt pocket. "Accio bandages!" he yelled. The bandages arrived quickly. Ginny and Fred looked at him with confusion. "What? I certainly don't know any healing spells. I can't make potions that heal either! I missed that class because... Well, you know why Fred," at that he chuckled at a memory and then started dressing Ginny's wounds.
"Heh... Yeah. That's what happens when you ditch to go and leave dung bombs in the teachers lounge. You miss important things!" Fred said teasing his twin. George looked at him and smacked him in the stomach.
"It's not like YOU weren't there with me! Shut up and help me, mate!" George demanded. Fred grabbed the bandages and helped cover the wound. Ginny giggled at her brothers antics and looked at the spider that was lying on the bed.
"How big was that spider before you made it move?" she asked. Fred stopped helping and picked up the spider.
"Well, it was about as small as..." he started looking around the room for a spider that he could compare it to but before he found one George answered for him.
"It was as big as that spider we found in your shoe that one day, remember? The reason why that one he has is as big as your shoe is because I increased its size to scare Ron." George started chuckling at the thought of scaring Ron. Fred started laughing. Everybody looked at him.
"I remember what you did when you found that spider in your shoe! It was so funny! You jumped back and ran away from your shoe!" Fred was laughing harder now. George laughed and started in as well.
"I never saw you run so fast! And then there was when you went to get Ron to get rid of it! That was great!" George and Fred laughed hysterically. Ginny started laughing too.
"It's a good thing I'm not afraid of spiders anymore. That would've been bad for what happened today. Hmm..." Ginny started to think about something. Fred and George looked at her.
"What's up Gin?" George asked. He looked at Fred's spider and stuffed it in his pocket.
"I wonder if Malfoy is afraid of spiders. That would be so great to get your spider on him and his two big smelly ogres!" she told them. She laughed at this and Fred and George started laughing at the thought.
"That, my dear little sister, can be arranged! Come, Fred, to the laboratory!" Fred said loudly as turned around to start walking to the door. George winked at Ginny and started after Fred, which he ran into. He looked in front of Fred to the door and saw Molly Weasley standing in the door way, seething.
"Fred! George! Why are you in here? You two are supposed to be somewhere else!" yelled Molly. She was furious.
"Aw shit! Fred! Look what you did now!" George whispered to Fred. Fred looked at George and then to his angry mother, who was walking towards them rather quickly. They looked at Ginny and she started to point to the door. They turned around and then ran around their mother and dashed through the doorway. Molly looked at Ginny and told her to stay in her room as she chased after Fred and George, slamming the door behind her.
Ginny sat down on her bed again and looked out her window at the golden sky. The sun was setting and the stars were starting to dot the sky. She looked into the field and saw Fred and George running through the yard, laughing hysterically and yelling at each other to hurry before their mother caught up with them, which was never going to happen as long as they were running. Ginny chuckled at this sight and then lay in bed. She started to think about the good times she had with her brothers, the spiders in the shoes, the dung bombs they had scattered throughout the corridors at Hogwarts during her second year, all the countless times that they had scared Ron with a spider in his food. She was going to miss them when they left. She continued to think of these happy times until she finally drifted back to sleep.
