(Y/n's P.O.V)

It has been a couple of months since Fred and I started dating, students have returned to school, the store is closed and the twins are staying at Grimmauld Place full time. Yes Uncle Sev knows where it is but I trust my Uncle he couldn't actually be evil, right? He was always so nice to me! Even if he was he wouldn't hurt me!

Being cooped up has been so hard! My parents haven't even been able to visit as they are stuck at Hogwarts with those dreadful death eaters! They can't even send letters. I was without my Dad for twelve years only for us to be dragged apart again. I'm starting to feel very homesick locked up in this house with no word from my family.

Fred and George have tried their best to cheer me up,  pranking me at every corner! I've also helped them to conduct new pranks ready for when we open again. Despite being locked inside Fred has also insisted on a few dates, they consisted of a nice meal, snacks a movie and George pretending to be a waiter. There was one day that I was so very upset so George decided to 'accidenty' drop a cream tart which happened to have extra cream on Fred!

It did the job just fine, I was full of laughter after that! While Fred chased his brother round the room and eventually Geoorge 'tripped over nothing' or rather my leg which led to the boys wrestling on the floor. The boys managed to brighten every day but once the sun had gone to bed and the moon had woken that was when my worries got to me. Even in the comfort of Freddie's arms I felt dread ever lasting dread, my parents  were trapped there with the likes of the Carrows.

I want to keep my parents safe but right now I can't. Have you ever felt as if you have the weight of the world was on your shoulders? I feel as if I should be off keeping my family safe but instead I am locked up in this house. I have already fixed all the rooms and made as much of a transformation in this house as I possibly could. I have read a number of books from my shelves and yet not a day goes by that I do not wish I was with my family, or with Harry doing something useful!

Fred and George have started hosting a show that gives hope to the survivors but also tells families of their loses. I had helped a number of times, the information came from annonomas informents straight to the shop and then sent over by Lee, through a connection we formed once a week. Lee does not know where we are hiding, he had chosen to stay at the shop in the twins apartment so he could do all the 'important' things that never got done. He was taking stock, rotating the stock, re-stocking, keeping the store clean, fixing different items and what not. He did all this the muggle way so he could keep himself occupied.

One morning their was a knock on the door. It had to be an Order Member they were the only ones who knew the location of 12 Grimuld Place. Fred and George were still very jumpy so stood behind me with drawn wands while I opened the door. My heart  was racing till my eyes landed on Harry, Ron and Hermione.

"Y/n! We need your help!" Hermione spoke as the door opened.

"Of course, come in!" I welcomed as I checked the street to make sure they weren't followed.

I led the trio into the kitchen, Ron giving his brothers  a big hug. Papa would have very strong words about just letting them in and not checking that it was them first but I had a feeling it was them and I always follow my gut!

"We were hoping you might help us find something." Harry started.

"What is it your looking for?" I ask taking a seat across from the trio, Fred and George behind me still holding their wands.

"We are looking for a locket, like this one." Harry told me as Hermione handed me the locket. "Maybe Dumbledore told you about it."

The locket was one I knew well. I had found it while cleaning out my Uncle's room, it was now George's room. I had placed the locket in a trunk in the attic, I had given the attic to Kreacher as his room rather then the cupboard he used to have. He had everything that was up there as his own.

"Kreacher!" I called making the trio raise their eyebrows questioningly.

"Yes Mistress?" Kreacher asked as he appeared at my side.

"I believe there is a locket up in your room, do you mind fetching it!" I asked him, he nodded and disappeared. "He loved my Uncle very much, not sure if he will part with it."

"He can take the one you have their, it's a replica!" Hermione told me.

"Thank you! He will appreciate that." I nodded to her.

Shortly later Kreacher returned with the locket. He handed it to me reluctantly and I showed it to the trio.

"Kreacher is it possible if we could maybe take it?" Hermione asked him.

"No you filthy Mudblood! Master intrusted it to me!" Kreacher snapped.

"Don't call Hermione that! You can have this one insetaed, it is the exact same!" I reasond.

"Master told Kreacher to destroy it!" Kreacher told me with his big eyes shinning with tears.

"We intend to destroy it Kreacher!" Harry told Kreacher.

"They will destroy it I promise Kreacher and you can still have the other locket to remember him by!" I promised, he reluctantly took the other locket and left.

I handed the locket to Harry, they left soon after but not without me making them promise to destroy it and return it so Kreacher could see the job was done.  I really didn't want the three to leave just yet as they had been the first people to visit in many months. as nice as it is having Fred and George here I needed more people here, I needed more people to talk to, more stuff to do because no matter what the twins did the house still seemed so small compared to the world I had hoped to explore this year.
