Finally Potter
Chapter twenty one
Ginny stepped out of the fire place and looked around at the kitchen she had landed in. Everything was quiet but Ginny was sure that at any moment screaming would take over and she wasn't disappointed.
"Robin Morwenna Weasley stand still!"
Laughter erupted from the living room and a red blur ran into the kitchen. Ginny quickly put out her hands and caught Robin as Percy sprinted into the room behind her. He had a pair of shoes in his hand and was looking murderous.
When he spotted Ginny he shook his head slowly at her.
"I don't know how mum use to do it. It's hard enough taking care of one child never mind seven, and let's face it Fred and George could count as five each."
"Percy have you got Robin ready Ginny will be here soon."
Penelope walked into the kitchen with River resting in her arms as she spotted Ginny she smiled.
"Percy hand the shoes over. Robin will you put your shoes on for me?"
Robin smiled up at Ginny and sat gently down on a chair waving her feet. Percy just tossed the shoes over and Ginny gently put them on her niece. As she did so a head appeared in the fireplace and everyone spun to look.
Ron grinned up at them for a moment. Ginny wondered if for a moment he was reminded of their childhood. There had been so many of them everywhere that it was hard to get anywhere on time. Then his face shifted and she saw him stare straight at Percy.
"There's been an attack in Liverpool on a muggle."
"What I'll go straight there."
"Thought you would, Harry is there too he's taken Floyd Philips with him so you might want to be quick."
"Philips that creep I'll go straight."
Ron quickly gave him the exact location and then his head disappeared from the fire. Percy quickly moved to Penelope kissing her cheek and Rivers forehead. As he got closer to Ginny she saw him bend down and kiss Robins cheek and as he stood straight she rubbed it off making a face. With a shrug at Ginny he disappeared from the kitchen leaving Ginny with Penelope and the kids. Ginny finished with Robins shoes and looked up at Penelope.
"I'll have her back as soon as I can."
"Don't worry I trust you Gin. Come give mummy a kiss Robin."
The girl quickly ran to her mother kissing the opposite cheek to the one that Percy had and then went back to Ginny. Ginny took a grip of Robins arm tightly and looked down at the five year old.
"Now Robin I need you to hold tight onto my arm and then we'll go."
Robin did as she was told and Ginny felt her skin pinch beneath the small arm. Closing her eyes she quickly thought of where she wanted to go and felt a build up of pressure then when it felt like she couldn't take it anymore it subsided and she opened her eyes to see the Cardiff train station.
"Now you keep hold of my hand young lady."
Robin nodded and Ginny lead the way through the streets of Cardiff that she was now so use to until they came to the entrance of the wizarding shopping area. Quickly they made their way along the streets of the wizarding establishment and Ginny found the shop she was looking for.
With Robin in tow they made their way into Silvas dresses. Ginny had been in this shop for her own bridesmaid fittings and she looked around. Nothing had changed in the three months since she had last been there and it was still as lovely as she remembered.
Caroline Silvas came out of the back room and a large smile crossed her face. Caroline was a middle aged woman in her late forties. She had been designing dresses since her days in Hogwarts. Everyone knew that she had always made clothes for her and her friends especially for special occasions.
"Ginny, its lovely to see you again, I've been expecting you to come soon, I've read all about your engagement."
Ginny grinned as she stepped forward with Robin.
"Oh and little Robin Weasley, are you going to be bridesmaid again for your Aunty."
"Yep, I'm going to look pretty."
"I'm sure you are. Any ideas about the dress that you want?"
Ginny pulled the catalogue out of her bag and went to the page that she had marked and pointed the dress out to Caroline.
"This one is what I was thinking of, the wedding colours are white and pink and I think Robin will look adorable in this colour."
The older witch nodded and went back into her store room; she was there for about five minutes before she came out carrying a dress with her. She carefully laid it out on a chair and pulled out a measuring tape.
"Stand here Robin and put your arms out."
She quickly measured the small girl and then pulled out her wand muttering words under her breath at the dress. It changed shapes and then Caroline with a smile picked it up.
"Robin dear why don't you go into that changing room over there and try this on."
Robin nodded and as she went Ginny spun the pages in the catalogue to another page.
"Caroline any chance that you have this dress in stock. I'm thinking of having Hermione and April in this one."
The witch looked at it and shook her head.
"No but if you want I can make another two for you."
"Oh could you."
"Sure dear but you'll have to bring them in for fittings."
She nodded but then Caroline scrunched up her nose a little and went through her file.
"Wait would this be Hermione Weasley and the now April Longbottom?"
"Yeah."
"I have their measurements here or at least their ones from their last fittings. I can make the dresses to these ones and if you come back in say two weeks, I can make the last amendments."
At this point Robin came out and Ginny just smiled as she looked at her niece, she looked like a little angel so very sweet. Caroline made some few adjustments and then smiled.
"I think this is adorable. This is the one. When is the date hunny?"
"Oh 7th November."
"Okay so we'll keep this here for a bit and then the last week of October you'll have to come for a last fitting just to make sure you haven't grown too much."
Ginny nodded and then thanking Caroline and promising to be back in two weeks she took Robin home.
Okay if you want to see the dresses there is a link on my authors page to them, they will only be up until I post the next chapter and then they'll be removed.
