Y/n's POV:

"We'll let you know when we leave." Tonks said, I nodded at her and smiled as she closed the door.

As soon as I turned around someone tackled me in a bone crushing hug. The person was tall so not only their hug kept me from breathing, their chest also did. I had to tap on the familiar and missed person ten times before they exited with a chuckle.

"I missed you so much, I'm so fucking happy." I was startled to hear Fred's voice, it sounded one octave lower and it was really, horribly, melting me. Though him cursing just made it way hotter.

I smiled at him, he seemed to have gotten much more taller, "I missed you too, love." I gave my best to tip toe and reach his cheeks to kiss him.

He smirked deviously and was about to lean down to kiss me but someone only slightly an octave higher than Fred's spoke. "Whoa, whoa! Too many rooms in this place, might as well get one." I chuckled at how he's using his hand to cover his eyes but his fingers were separated and can clearly see us.

"George..." I exclaimed and gave him a hug. Behind him were Hermione and Ginny who couldn't wait for George to exit the hug so they pulled him away and hugged me.

"We missed you!" they said in unison. I giggled.

"Missed you too, girls." I said ruffling their hair. Ron only looked at me and gave a warm smile.

"I'm sorry I couldn't write to you. They didn't let us write back." Hermione exclaimed. I gave her a sympathetic look that told her that it was okay, so she smiled with relief.

"How did you get here? We were supposed to get you on—" I cut Fred off.

"—the 5th, I know. I came here immediately after separating with Harry." I said to them.

"With Harry? You were together?" Asked Ron. I nodded.

"I had no idea that we lived in the same neighborhood. I saw him being picked on by Dudley, shock as I was, I went and threatened the flea." I said while wiping my forehead. I almost forgot that the rain got to me.

"Wait, so all this time we could've picked you up with Harry?" Ginny asked. Now that she mentioned it. Fred and George were with me last summer.

"Is that why you were with Harry last year when you picked me up?" I asked the twins. I waited for them last year before going to the Burrow because of what Dumbledore instructed me to do. But because of that they had to go back two days ago to prepare the house for my arrival and probably the others as well.

"Well we didn't know the way around. Dad apparated for us." George explained. Makes sense. Not like it matters now anyways.

••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

The twins and I went to their room. George was lying down on his bed, his head towards the food of the bed and his legs straightened up, hooking themselves up on the headboard. Fred and I are on his bed. I'm sitting against the headboard and he's lying down between my legs, using my stomach his pillow. My hands managed their way on his hair that's now shorter. I just told them about me joining the 'adults' to save Harry.

"Can't I go with you? Since you started being a protector we'd managed to help you from time to time. I don't see why not now." Fred exclaimed. I angled myself, peaking for him to see me.

"It'll be dangerous, Moony was even against the idea." I said giving him a reassuring smile. I feel guilty about so many things. I didn't even think about what Fred would say. He gets jealous really quickly but I think he knows what's the deal, right? He knows that I'm doing this for everyone's safety.
