Percy watched amused as Ginny and George sat in front of a chess set, both serious as they played their game with the others looking on.
"Knight to E-3." Ginny mumbled, shifting in her seat.
Percy turned from the board to Kagome, "may I have a word?"
Kagome turned and walked with Percy onto the stairwell, both sitting wide enough to allow people to walk between them.
"Is everything okay?" Kagome asked.
Percy laced his fingers and leaned forward as he braced his elbows on his knees. "Is there anything that I could get from St. Mungo's to help with… nightmares?"
"There's the Potion for Dreamless Sleep, but you'd have to come and get checked to make sure you're a qualified recipient for it." Kagome explained.
"It stopped working, is there anything stronger?" Percy asked, desperation making its way into his normally even tone.
Kagome placed a hand on Percy's arm, fully understanding his desperation to escape the nightmares. "I'll talk to Healer Smethwyck and see if he has any recommendations, are you okay otherwise?"
"I'm handling everything fine, it's just at night when I fall asleep. I wanted to thank you for being there for George, we haven't been there as much as we should and figured he'd move on like the rest of us."
"Absolutely, I don't know what I would do without him myself." Kagome said.
Percy looked around the living area before turning to look at the woman on the stairs with him, "you're both very lucky."
Shouts from the dinning room had them both peering around the stairwell, Ginny throwing her hands up in victory while George shook his head in defeat.
Percy stood up and helped Kagome to her feet before both made their way back into the kitchen.
