Ginny looked at Harry and laughed. "You're giving the babysitting job to Ron?" she cried out.
"Ginny, I need you to keep a secret," Harry muttered while holding on to his fiancee's arm. Ginny looked at him then looked back down at a 2-year-old Teddy. "Have you seen Charlie at all yet?" he asked.
Ginny shook her head, "When he was unconscious, yes, but not recently, I've been busy why?"
"Why don't you visit him right now?" Harry asked. "Bring Teddy too," he said with a small smile.
"I don't know what's up but ok!" Ginny said, she grabbed onto Teddy and apparated to the hospital. Charlie had a personal room, which was weird. She walked towards the room Charlie was in and that's when it hit her. There was a younger girl with Charlie, she looked around 16 or maybe 17. She had black hair with white streaks, she was holding onto her wand and Ginny saw some flowers coming out of the girl's wand.
Ginny then walked up and saw Ron sleeping on the chair beside the girl. She saw her older brother, Charlie look at her and smile. "Charlie," she muttered softly. "Are you alright?" she walked up but then was stopped by the girl.
"Is that Teddy?" the girl asked. Ginny then realized she was holding onto Teddy who was struggling to get out of her grasp. "My name is Primrose-"
"Weasley, her name is Primrose Weasley," Charlie interrupted and smiled. Primrose giggled.
Primrose grabbed onto Teddy then sat back down on her chair. "Hoy," the little boy said to Primrose. "Who you?"
"I am Prim," the girl replied. Ginny stared at her in shock and immediately recognized her. She was the Obscurial Harry had been talking about recently, the Obscurial, but Obscurials are not supposed to even be alive when they're older than 12.
Teddy grabbed onto Primrose's hand and laughed. "Primmie, I Teddy," he said. Ginny looked at Charlie again, who was staring at Primrose carefully. Ginny then walked up closer to Charlie. She'd heard what happened from Luna, and she knew he was definitely devastated.
"Charlie," she muttered. Charlie looked at her, it had been a while since Ginny had even seen Charlie, he definitely looked better.
Charlie then jabbed Ron's shoulder and Ron quickly woke up. "Bloody hell, Charlie!" he said. Ron then looked at Ginny. "Oh, hello," then he looked at Teddy. "I see you got my letter," he said.
Ginny sat down next to Charlie's right and looked at him. "Are you doing alright?" Charlie was looking at Primrose again.
"I'm fine Ginny," he said.
"Stop saying that!" Ginny cried out, "You know I ask the Healers to send me letters of how you are! You're not fine!" she snapped angrily. According to Healers, Charlie had been screaming Athena's name in his sleep and begging someone to stop, and it's been like that since he was first admitted, and it was the main reason he couldn't be discharged.
Charlie looked at her, "No," he muttered. Ginny then saw Primrose put Teddy down on a chair and gave him a wolf plushie she probably got from the hospital's gift shop. The young girl then looked at Ginny, and suddenly turned into an Obscurus. Ginny was in shock she fell to the ground nervously. Primrose rattled the small table in the room and it broke instantly. Charlie then tried to stand up. Ron supported his body, from the other side.
"Prim," he warned softly. The dark blob was in front of Charlie, he had one hand on the bed and he was standing up. Primrose then turned back to human. She hugged him and pushed him back onto the bed. He cried out in pain, and he winced. Primrose's eyes widened in fear.
"Sorry daddy," she said softly. "I didn't mean t-"
"Don't apologize," he replied. "Don't do that again Prim," he said.
Primrose looked at Ginny angrily then looked back at Charlie. "She was yelling at you, she was making you sad," she said. Ginny looked at Charlie who stared at her with a small grin.
"It's alright Primrose, just take care of Teddy with Ron okay?" he said softly. Primrose nodded and sat with Teddy on her lap. "Ginny I'm sorry-"
Ginny grabbed onto Charlie's arm and smiled at him. "Let's try walking, okay?" she said. He shook his head.
"No, Ginny." Charlie started. She lifted him up and he stood up. "No Ginny I can't do this," he muttered.
Ginny shook her head. "Yes, you can Charlie, try for Athena, she would've wanted you to be able to walk at least," she said. Charlie shook his head.
"Athena's gone, there's no point of trying anymore," Charlie said.
Suddenly, Primrose stood up. "Daddy, try for me," she said sweetly. "Please, so we could go on walks down Lake Sfânta Ana together again!" she said. "Please daddy!" Charlie looked at Primrose and hugged her.
"Baby, baby, baby, Prim do you know how hard it is for me?" he said softly. He brushed Primrose's hair and kissed her forehead.
Ginny looked at Charlie. "You can do it, Charlie," she said. "Come on,". Charlie was shaking.
"No, I'm sorry I can't do this," he sat back down.
Primrose grabbed him and pulled him up. She glared at him. "Do it!" she cried out. Charlie looked at his adoptive daughter and laughed. Ginny smiled as she watched the two. Charlie was kind of walking again. Ginny then realized that with every step Charlie took he was in a lot of pain, she looked at his eyes and they glimmered with pain but his smile was hiding it.
Suddenly the door opened, Luna and Rolf. Ginny looked at Luna and smiled. "Hello Luna," she said.
"Ginny!" Luna cried out, then gave her a hug. Ginny looked at Rolf and nodded politely, the two weren't close. She looked back at Charlie who was laughing with Primrose.
"I guess I can leave now," Ginny said. "Ron? Take care of Teddy, I'll be at home by 11 pm with Harry," she said before leaving the room.
Rolf took one look at the little toddler and knew who he was right away. "Teddy," he muttered. He walked up towards the little boy. "He's Nymphadora's son," he said. Luna looked at Rolf curiously.
"She was in Charlie's year at Hogwarts," Rolf said.
Charlie looked up when he heard his name. "Hey guys," he said. Primrose waved at Rolf.
"How is Brisky?" she asked. Primrose had been staying at the hospital with Charlie for weeks, and she still worried about her dragon.
"He's fine," Rolf replied.
Primrose frowned. "Daddy, when can we go back to Romania?" she asked quietly. Charlie looked at her, his gaze full of love. He hugged her and shook his head slowly.
"Not right now baby," he replied. "Why?"
Primrose blushed, "Do you remember Logan?" she asked with a small smile. Charlie laughed.
"Yes, he works with us Prim!" he said with a chuckle. Primrose smiled and laughed.
"Well he's been writing letters to me," she said.
Charlie gasped in shock and smiled at Primrose. "Has he? Prim, that's great!" he said. Rolf looked at Charlie, he sure has changed, Charlie was different than other people, he was caring.
Rolf looked at Teddy who was playing with Ron. He walked up to the young boy and smiled at him. "Teddy," he started. The little boy looked at Rolf confused. He held onto his wolf plushie and threw it at Rolf, who just caught it.
"Who you?" he asked.
"My name is Rolf," Rolf said with a smile.
"Wolf?" Teddy muttered, then grabbed the wolf plushie from Rolf. "This is wolf!" he cried out. Luna smiled and grabbed Teddy, she played with his hair which was currently blonde like hers.
Charlie then looked at Rolf, "Why did you come here today?" he asked. "Don't you have to work?" Charlie muttered.
"I wanted to see you, I wanted to see how you feel because Ath-" Rolf started.
"Don't," Charlie said angrily. "Don't say her name," he said. Primrose looked at Charlie worriedly and sighed. "Please Rolf, just leave, please," Charlie begged. "Athena," he cried out softly. Ron then comforted Charlie.
"Charlie, calm down," he said.
Charlie shook his head, "You all don't understand! They took her okay! I couldn't- I couldn't protect her," he cried out, "Every single day, I could've saved her but I couldn't, she's gone because of me, I don't- I don't deserve to be alive right now," he screamed. Rolf looked at Charlie, he was suffering from trauma and pain, and he was still grieving for Athena. Charlie wasn't mad at the people who killed her, he was mad at himself. He blamed himself for her death.
Primrose looked at Charlie and started to cry. Suddenly there was a big explosion, Primrose laughed, insanely. She opened the door and the broken pieces of the recently broken desk flew out of the door, the wall broke and the hospital was messy and wrecked. She laughed again. Her pain was from Charlie's, she was feeling what he felt.
"Stop it!" Luna cried out in fear. Rolf held onto Luna as the debris flew around.
Charlie then stood up, "Prim," he started. He reached his right arm out and stretched out his palm. Primrose looked at him and grabbed onto his hand, she cried loudly. "It's okay," he said before giving her a hug. He then grabbed her wand. "You see this? Do you remember the spell?" he asked softly. Primrose grabbed the wand and pointed it out.
"Reparo," she muttered. In a few minutes, the room was soon back to normal. Charlie hugged Primrose and smiled.
Rolf looked at Charlie, had this happened often? Come to think of it, when he picked Primrose up from Romania she destroyed the house she lived in. Why had she acted like that though? Rolf grabbed onto Luna's hand and walked out of the room. He wanted to help Charlie and of course he missed Athena but-
"Rolf, did you miss me?" a sweet familiar voice said. Rolf's eyes widened as he turned around to see who it was.
