"Never say never," Ginny laughed. Ron stuck his tongue out at her. Ginny retorted in the same way. Her brown eyes sparkling.

"It's Hya! She's my best mate! I'd never! Ginny, why would you even suggest that?" Ron asked. Ginny shook her head. Sometimes her brother could be incredibly dense.

"If you say so," she added before darting up the stairs to the girls' dorm. Hyacinth Potter looked up as Ginny entered. She brushed a strand of her red hair behind her ear. Everyone said it was the exact same shade as her mum's had been. Hya didn't care. It was red, red like the Weasleys' hair.

"Ron still being an idiot?" she asked. Ginny nodded.

"When isn't he?" she asked. Hya thought about it for a moment.

"Good point, wait, what about when he's asleep?"

"He drools. And snores."

"Oh. I guess you're right then. He is always annoying, but cute. Maybe I could over look the annoying part? No, no I can't. Wait, does Fred snore?"

"Talks in his sleep," Ginny answered, sitting on the edge of Hya's bed.

"George?"

"Same, and he kicks. What is with you trying to date my brothers, Hya?"

"Because, I wish to be a real Weasley," Hya said softly. "I look like you guys, red hair, hazel eyes. I'm mistaken for a Weasley everywhere I go. I just want to make it official, you know?"

"Mum could adopt you," Ginny suggested. "She'd sign the paperwork in heartbeat. Dad too, not that he'd really notice another red head sitting at the dinner table," she laughed.

"But... Dumbledore says I need to stay with the Dursleys."

"Why?" Ginny asked. Hya shrugged.

"Something about blood bonds, with Aunt Petunia being Mum's sister."

"Seems silly to me, I mean, she treats you horrible. How is that safe?" Ginny asked. Hya blinked.

"That's a good point," Hya had to admit. Ginny put her hand on Hya's.

"Look, I don't care what last name you have, Hyacinth Potter, you're my sister. You'll always be my sister. Come on, let's go write Mum and see if she'll adopt you? I'm sure my family is somehow related to the Potters. I mean, aren't all Pure-blood families intermingled somehow?" Ginny asked, giving Hya a huge smile. Hya nodded, remembering the book about genealogy she'd started reading.

"Bet there's enough blood to make a bond there and then Dumbledore will have to let you leave that horrible place. You belong with your family, Hya, with our family. And I'm going to make sure it happens," Ginny promised. Hya nodded, following Ginny down the stairs. They both stuck their tongues out at Ron as they passed him on their way to the owlery.
