Chapter 19 \\ don't hate me

August 10th, 2002 (the day before Ginny's 21 birthday)

After the war ended harry and jasmine got together. He proposed to her a year ago and they were to be married in a few months.

Ron and Hermione had eloped immediately after the war mutch to Molly's displeasure in not being there for it.

Tonks gave birth to beautiful teddy, her and Remus's child and the two were rarely seen without him.

Fred, driven into depression after George died, commit suicide a month after Hogwarts was restored.

Sirius moved into his own house next to a lake with plenty of trees after finally being cleared because of his help in the war and a little of slughorns truth serum. He enjoyed being able to finally see the sky.

Everyone had seemed to have moved on from the war. Except Ginny. The nightmares that everyone had overcome after a year had stayed with her. She felt so guilty for waking everyone at night when she screamed she either didn't sleep of cast a silencing charm over her bed at night.

She found that playing with her necklace was helpful.

Ginny also still no little to nothing about G.E.P. and had long ago given up on figuring out who she was.

Witch brings us here, the day before her birthday, in Sirius's house with the rest of the weasleys.

Sirius had sent them all howler's telling them there was an emergency and when the got there he said he was simply just bored.

He and Remus had been acting strange the past week and no one seemed to notice but Ginny. At the moment she was listening to sirius go on about why tea is better than coffee and how americans are insane.

Ginny wasn't really paying attention. Her most recent nightmare was on her mind

Bellatrix stepped closer to her. "You filthy bitch! Now you'll pay for that" suddenly someone dragged Fred and George into the room. Bellatrix grinned and turned to Ginny. " Imperio. Kill them."

"NO! ginny dont! this isn't you!"

"PLEASE! Ginny please no!"

Bellatrix cackled as a green light hit the twins.

"Ginny? Ginny!" Sirius snapped her out of her thoughts.

"Huh? What?" She asked, shaking her head.

"You look really pale. Like, moaning mertal pale. Are you okay?" Ron asked her, concern clear in his voice.

"Ronald!" Hermione sent him a look.

 "What? It's true."

"Uhm, yea, no I'm fine. Just, need water."

Sirius frowned but summoned her a glass anyway. She took a small drink from it and they went back to their conversation, which seemed to have changed to quidich teams.

11:56 p.m. august 10th

Slowly everyone headed back to their homes till it was just harry, Ron, Hermione and Ginny.

"Well, its late, I think we better Head out. Good bye sirius." Ron and Hermione apparated away and harry soon followed after.

"Ginny, before you go, i have something for you. I know you still technically have three minutes till your birthday but it's best to be given now." He pulled an envelope from his pocket and handed it to her. "Just, before you open it, please don't hate me when you get back."

Before she had a chance to ask him what he meant her necklace flashed and changed form before she was surrounded by white.

Dun dun dunnnnn

Now you get to wait a week while I pretend the chapter isn't already written
