Disclaimer: same as before, I own nothing. Except maybe the little gold box
but apart from that I own nothing.
Ginny flopped onto her bed for the second time that day, why had she gotten so embarrassed? Hermione was only telling her that the cake was nice. Ginny made a growl low in her throat and hid her head under the pillow. She was hopeless. Well at least Charlie would be home for dinner, that was a good thing. What to do till then? She could read, nah! Boring. Homework? Even worse. The box! How could she have forgotten it, Charlie had said he couldn't get it open, maybe she could do that, see if there was anything inside.
She pulled the box out of the drawer in her bed side table, and studied it for a second. It looked like a solid block of gold, no wait if she looked very closely at it she could see a thin line running all the way around it, but there didn't seem to be a catch anywhere on it, did the lid just lift up?
She tried it but the thing was shut tight, did it need magic to open? She couldn't think of any spells that would open it, besides it was the summer holidays, she wasn't supposed to do magic, perhaps she should ask her dad. Or she could look for something in her school books. She had borrowed a few books from school over the summer, maybe they would have something.

"Want a game of Quidditch harry?" Ron asked standing up from the table
"Yeah sure," he replied as he also got up, "Thanks for lunch Mrs weasly, it was lovely"
"Your very welcome dear, now you two be careful."
"We will," the boys answered in unison, then Ron added, "Herm you wanna play too, we can borrow Fred's broom."
"Uh-no thanks, but I'll come watch," she told them
And with that worked out the three of them made their way to the little hill outside the Burrow, it was completely secluded, no muggles anywhere so it was safe to play, as long as they didn't fly too high.

"Ginny!" Molly Weasly called, "Dinner time!"
Ginny looked up from her books which were now strewn across the floor, she had only found one thing that might open the box, it was a really complex locking spell, and she had learned it, and the counter spell off by heart, she would try it the second she got onto the train at king cross station. But for now she was going to go eat, reading was hungry work. Plus Charlie said he would be back.
When she got down the stairs she found that Charlie was back, and so were the rest of her brothers. Bill, Charlie, Percy, Fred and George plus her father too. Ron, Harry and Hermione were still out.
The Burrow hadn't been this crowded for years. Ginny wondered what was going on. Not that she wasn't happy to see her family. But it was a little odd.
Then all at once as if they had discussed it. All 5 of her brothers jumped up and gave her a hug. She let out a little squeal, before they reached her but wasn't fast enough to get out of they way. "Uh, it's good to see you all too. But I need to breath" she told them, and they let go, all grinning from ear to ear. "what's going on?" she asked "Why is every one here?"
"Well honey we decided to have a family week, we haven't really spent much time together, so we thought it would be nice," her father told her
"Cool," Ginny agreed as she squeezed in between Percy and Fred "Where's Ron?" she asked.
"Oh their still outside, would you go get them for me?" her mother asked her.
"Sure," Ginny agreed and headed out to the little hill.
A/N: I know this is a little short but writers block decided to strike, but I think I have a good idea for the next chapt, and please r/r. let me know what I'm doing wrong, and what's good. Cuz I can't fix it if I don't know how. Ok thanks.
And a big thanx to Mrs Pitt my one and only reader. Go you!!!!
