I landed at SeaTac jetlagged and more than a little moody. My parents didn't bother me as I got in the car and immediately fell asleep.

I woke up the next morning in my bed. I looked at the clock. *So much for morning* it was just past noon.

I sat up and walked downstairs. "Dumbledore!" I shouted. There sitting at our kitchen table was Dumbledore wearing "muggle" clothes. His view of muggle fashion was highly amusing.

"I have to apologize to you Sammay. For the lack of contact. We became aware that someone was intercepting the mail, so I had to halt all letters to you. I apologize."

I nodded. "It is alright."

"To make it up to you, I brought a present."

Suddenly I was nearly tackled from behind. "Sammay!!!!"

"Fred! George! Ginny! Luna!" all four of my friends were there grinning at me.

"I thought I would bring them to visit for a weekend."

"So, what are we doing first?" Fred asked grinning.

"Mall anyone?" Ginny piped up.

I laughed "With you guys there? Anything will be fine." so we left in a pile of laughter.

We wandered around the mall together. The twins seemed completely uninterested in shopping, but they were amused as the three of us girls tried on outfits at random. We bought a bunch of new clothes. Finally we all settled down at a table with smoothies and a two pizzas(one for us girls and one for the twins).

We were smiling and laughing when my old group of friends spotted me at the table.

"Hey Sammay! Long time no see!" Sharine called.

"OMG are these your friends from that Private school?" Cara gushed.

Fred grinned at them and George gave them a thumbs up. "That would be us!" they said together.

The girls blushed.

"This is Fred, George, Ginny, and Luna." I told them smiling.

"Pleasure to meet you" Kelly said.

"Sammay you didn't tell us you had such pretty friends" George said, Fred socked his arm.

"Guys, this is Kelly, Cara, Sharine, Shannon, Kim, and Karin."

"Nice to meet you" Ginny said.

"Hey, would they like to go to the movie with us?" George piped up.

"Of course we would" kim said.

The rest of the day flew y in a fun blur. My Hogwarts friends stayed with me until late that night, then they and Dumbledore left. Somehow it relived me that they had never asked about school. I didn't know why though..

The rest of the summer was uneventful after that day. Then, in an instant it was a week from school again.

That is when I got a letter from Dumbledore.

"Sorry that this is coming so late Sammay. You will be returning to your place at Hogwarts now that the danger has passed. I will be there to pick you up Tomorrow."

I went downstairs and gave my parents the note before speeding upstairs to pack.

My robes no longer fit like they did when I first got them, but they would work fine. I smiled as I saw 4 owls perched on my window sill. "They never forget do they." I opened the packages. There were the newest forms of pranks from George, a large assortment of candy from Fred, a stationary kit from Ginny, and a charm to keep off Nargals from Luna. I laughed and slipped it on before starting to pack.
