Ginny had listened to her mother and Fleur rave about how Audrey was in her wedding dress. Every one of her family members claimed she was practically an angel, and Ginny agreed that Audrey was "kind-hearted" and "sweet." However, Ginny thought Audrey was a little too docile to become a Weasley. Weasley women were tough and could endure anything. Even Fleur, who married Bill, stood by her husband after he was attacked by Fenrir Greyback; however, Ginny wasn't sure Audrey could handle a traumatic experience like that, but she seemed to be the only one concerned.

Although Ginny felt like the only one who cared about Audrey's flaws, she wouldn't stop trying to shed some light on Percy's fiance. Her father merely laughed and said, "Just give her a chance." Her mother just gave her a warm hug before making her daughter wash the dishes. Her siblings merely asked if she was crazy. Naturally, she was exhausted of her thoughts being rejected and went to her room. She sat down on her bed and silently wished it would stop raining. Only flying on her broomstick would help clear her head, and she couldn't fly in such bad weather. She flopped on her bed covered by a quilt. She released a heavy sigh before she heard a knock on her door.

"Who is it?" she called.

"It's your boyfriend," he answered before coming in.

"What are you doing here?" she replied in shock before meeting Harry's lips. She sat up and wrapped her arms around Harry's waist as he sat down beside her. "I thought you and Ron had a criminal investigation project or something."

"Surprisingly, we finished it early so he's asleep,"Harry replied with a casual shrug of his shoulders.

Ginny pressed her head to Harry's chest and said, "Hermione would be so proud of you." The two shared a laugh and an intimate secret smile. After he inquired about her day, and she replied with a noncommital shrug and a "nothing." Then, the magenta chiffon dress with a sweetheart neckline and a sash around the waist caught her eye. Her bridesmaid dress was a painful reminder that Percy was going to get married. Not only did she loathe the dress, and she dreaded Harry's opinion of the dress.

"I still can't believe Percy is getting married," she said with a small sigh.

"Why is it shocking you now?" he asked, his green almond-shaped eyes slightly rounded. A warm smile crossed his face. His mind began to reel as he imagined Percy reading bedtime stories to his baby sister. He wondered if Ginny was caught in a web of childhood memories or if she was astonished Percy found someone to settle down with.

"I don't know," she finally answered blankly.

Harry cocked an eyebrow as Ginny glared at the magenta dress. While everyone else seemed to be excited about the upcoming wedding, Harry realized Ginny hadn't been very involved nor did she seem to care. He had assumed her being at Hogwarts had prevented her from being too preoccuppied with the wedding.

"I knew they were together while he was avoiding the family, but that doesn't mean he has to spend the rest of his life with her," she said off-handedly.

"Do you not like Audrey?" Harry asked.

"She's nice enough, but I don't know if she's a good fit for my brother," she replied as she pushed her long red hair behind her shoulder. Harry nodded as if unsure what to say. He didn't know Audrey well enough to judge her, but Ginny was a bit harder to please than anyone else he knew. He also knew Percy expected perfection from everyone he encountered; therefore, there couldn't be anything terribly wrong with Audrey. She must possess a more redeeming quality than "nice."

"What's so bad about her?" he inquired.

"Nothing," Ginny replied defensively as if question Audrey was a crime, "I just don't know if she's as perfect for Percy as everybody thinks."

"Have you talked to him about it?"

"No," she replied hastily, "It took too long for Percy and the rest of the family to get along, and I don't want to be the one to ruin that." Harry tightened his grip on Ginny's waist and placed a kiss on her forehead. He noticed Ginny stiffened her posture and cross her arms across her chest.

"You won't," he replied reassuringly, "He isn't going anywhere, or I will personally track him down. Just talk to him." Ginny grinned at Harry's joke before changing the subject.

She had never planned to heed Harry's advice, and she was certain Percy would call her a "delusional nuisance"; however, she couldn't shake the feeling that she needed to express her concerns. She was sure Fred and George gave a threatening speech to Dean Thomas. Even Ron had tried to play the role of "protective brother" around Harry. She had hated Fleur until she proved her loyalty to Bill. She needed to be the protective sibling and talk to Percy. She needed to make sure Percy was marrying Audrey for the right reasons.

That Thursday night, she apparrated to Percy's flat. She banged on the door until her older brother answered. She smiled when she saw her brother without his fiancee. "Good evening, Ginny," Percy said politely, "what are you doing here?"

She took a deep breath as Percy eagerly welcomed her into the tidy apartment. She noticed the cat aimlessly strolling through the apartment as if looking for food. The siblings took a seat on the olive green corduroy couch. Immediately, Percy began organizing the magazines on the maple table beside the couch. "I like your place," Ginny said glancing at the cream colored walls.

"I know it's a little bare, but we've been so busy that we haven't spared the time to decorate," Percy mused with a small smile. "I'm looking forward to getting rid of this hideous couch."

"Perce, I need to talk to you about something other than furniture," Ginny said mustering up her strength.

"What about?" he asked leaning forward in interest. He found an oppurtunity to prove himself as a brother, and he was determined to solve any of his little sister's problems.

"What do you see in... I mean, what do you like about Audrey?" Ginny asked. Percy's eyes widened in shock before narrowing. He lowered his glasses to the tip of his nose before nervously running a pale hand through his curly red hair. He wondered why his little sister questioned his relationship; however, he felt as if Ginny was attempting to protect him and the very prospect was endearing.

Percy thought about why he loved Audrey. Every reason flooded over him like a tidal wave. He couldn't help remembering when they were merely hanging out at coffee shops and her apartment. He wished Ginny could have met her when Audrey was screaming, "Percy you made a joke! YOU MADE A JOKE!" or her demanding details from his failed relationship with Penelope Clearwater. "You know she's...amazing and funny. She's understanding and patient, and I'm so excited to spend the rest of my life with her," he replied as Ginny's blue eyes met his. A small smile formed on her features as he imagined a future with Audrey.

"I know you fancy her, but how do you know if she can handle your prattish arse at it's worst?" Ginny teased with a playful nudge.

"She did it before, and when I was at my worst," Percy admitted.

"She just seems so...weak," Ginny said.

"She's been under a lot of stress with work, planning a wedding, and trying to fit into a huge family. I hate to say sometimes not all of her personality shines through, but I'm sure she will come around," Percy replied placing a hand on Ginny's shoulder. Ginny wondered why Percy wasn't screaming at her or being completely defensive. He acted like a father giving an important lecture about life to his sullen daughter. Ginny quickly said a "goodbye" before walking out the door.

Percy followed her to the door and asked, "Is there anything else you'd like to know?"

Ginny sighed and met Percy's gaze. There had been another question that had been plaguing her thoughts. She had wondered if anyone else had asked themselves the same question, but she was the only one brave enough to ask. "If she hadn't been around, do you think you would have retured?" she asked.

"I would like to think so," he responded, "But I don't know if things would be as good as they are now and if we would get along."

With Percy's answer, Ginny apparrated to the solace of her bedroom. She sat on her bed and looked at the night sky. She hadn't found Audrey to be a savior nor had her opinions changed; however, she was satisfied with Audrey being a "nice" girl. If Audrey made Percy happy, Ginny wouldn't get in the way, and she hoped she would see the wilder side of her future sister-in-law soon. She held up her wand and said "nox." She fell asleep satisfied with her search.
