The sun was setting in Ottery St Catchpole, it was a lovely and quiet evening. Not at the Burrow though. The house was bustling and full of energy that fine evening. Molly Weasley was cooking up a dinner for her kids, you can tell when they are getting restless since they can't go outside. It was getting dark after all and she wouldn't want her kids running around at night.
As Molly was cutting up carrots to put in the soup she heard a crack near the house, she looks up and through the window saw her husband, Arthur Weasley. Lively man, always obsessed with muggle stuff and their ways, Molly never really understood where and why he got that interest from but it certainly passed down to their children, they seem especially interested when he brings up stories about his job.
Arthur walks through the door and shouts "Good evening Weasleys!" trying to grab his children's attention to make him aware of his presence. He walks over to Molly, "Hello love, how was work today?" She asks while giving him a kiss.
"It was well, just going over some artifacts that we've seen before, honestly I'm getting bored of them, I need a new muggle thing, something odd and weird that will get me out of the boredom," he explains as he sits down. "Oh, don't worry Arthur, you will find something so-"
"DADDY" Molly was cut off but a shriek coming from 4-year-old Ginny Weasley. The youngest of the Weasley children often in the company of her big brother 5-year-old Ronald. "Hello, daddy," said the 4-year-old as she went running to her father. "Hello my dear, how are you today? Did you help mummy?" asked her father.
"Yep and Ron help too but Fred and George were bothering him again," said Ginny. Just as she said that Ron came running into the kitchen crying and ran toward his mother.
"Mummy, Fred, and George were chasing me with the spider again!" he cried to his mum. After the incident with transforming Ron's favorite bear into a spider, poor Ronald Weasley is petrified to even see a spider, let alone being chased.
"Fred! George! Get down here! NOW!" yelled Molly. Molly loved her kids, all of them but there are moments like these where she just questions her parenting skills. The 7-year-old twins walk into the kitchen, with an innocent look on their faces. Like they have done no wrongdoing.
"Oh hello dad, happy to see you here," said Fred. His twin nodded. Arthur gave them a pointed look. The twin shifted their eyes towards their mother, which had a very pissed-off look. "What have I told you about bother Ron with spiders. If you do this one more time you will be denoming the garden for the rest of the summer and I'll clean out your pranks or whatever you have in that room!" she yelled. The twins protested.
"Am I clear?"
The boys sighed, "Yes mum"
"Good, now everyone to the dining table. PERCY! BILL! CHARLIE! DINNER!!" screamed Molly. In a few minutes, the whole table filled with red-heads ready to eat.
"So dad what did you see today?" asked George with a mouth full of food. Molly shook her head for his table manners but didn't say anything. "Oh, there wasn't much. The same thing as last time, some muggle clocks, a weird-looking pan, oh and there was that telly-box thing again. But other than that same old same old." explained Arthur.
"Really? Sounds boring to me" said Ron while Ginny nodded her head. "Well it wasn't that boring, I heard some co-workers talking about the legend again but nothing new," he said nonchalantly.
"Legend? What legend?" asked young Percy, his eyes giving his father a confused look. "What? Harry Potter?" asked Ginny.
Just as Arthur was about to speak, Bill interjected. "No Harry Potter isn't a legend because he is still alive and it happened recently. The legend I think dad was a long time ago. Right, Dad?" asked Bill.
