At first I can't tell if its from the door of the room, or downstairs, and lean to the side in an attempt to see out of the door, relaxing once I realise that it's downstairs, an probably just another order member joining their meeting.
All shall be well, I sigh, and it all seems to be finally going in that direction, until I see someone move right past the door to the room.
hmm, must be Mr Weasley.

Fred Weasley's POV
'I don't give a damn what the hell she said to you over text, I was not done..!' George shuts up quick 'There is no way I would've given her up that easily, I mean, have you seen her?? Merlins beard..I know I'm stupid, but I'm not a complete moron! I love her! And I had half a mind to just give you full ownership of the shop when she said that she couldn't stay with me, but for SOME reason, I stood my ground, acting all stubborn..why?? because I wanted that money so I could spoil her, AS IF she needed it, the same girl who used to raid her fathers vault, and get money from her friends whenever she asked for it, the same one who cried when I gave her a promise ring, because of the effort I put into it, since apparently, getting my little sisters input was THE most thoughtful thing she's gotten in her entire life. do you know how crazy that is??'
George rolls his eyes 'Almost as crazy as you'
'Almost as crazy as the both of us! That's the point! and d'you know how close I was to going absolutely ballistic when I heard that mum had invited her to stay at the Burrow until the end of the year? And she told YOU, not even me? Because she thought I'd do something stupid, like going over there..'
He snorts, raising an eyebrow 'so don't go over there, gain her trust..'
Or..
'Go over there, gain her respect for me, FINALLY, as a grown adult, show her I can be a gentleman, and that I'm not a little kid anymore. She accepted it from you, it shouldn't be too bad for me' I add, pacing around now, knocking over the box I had placed down, labelled "Canary Creams".
'Yeah, ya know what? I will do that'
I pat George in the shoulder 'And don't mock me for my efforts, or even the fact that I'm stuck up on the same girl'
..After a relatively short walk to the Burrow (an hour, even though I could've apparated, I'm 18.. and I say I'm grown), or.. speed walk, or jog, I end up near a field of grass, which I walk around, trying to avoid getting any pollen stuck onto me (I wouldn't want her sneezing and crying, and not knowing if I,had caused it. even though I probably did) and wiping away the red mark on the sleeve of my jacket, before rushing to the door as soon as it comes into sight.
Should I be here?
I think it's a little too late to turn back now.. could I just go in and say hi?
I'll leave her alone?
Three soft knocks, which lets my mum know it's me, only it's not my mum who answers the door, but..
Kingsley Shacklebolt?
'Hi, umm, is my mum in there? Just come to say hi..'
He gives me a once over, and then what I'd call a suggestive raise of his eyebrow, before moving out of the way to gesture to my mum, who looks just about ready to kill me, or hex me, or anything equally as painful.
'You're not going up to see her!'
I glance up momentarily, wishing she wasn't so loud, because even her whisper yelling tone is loud.
I shake my head, and gesture between the two of us 'just wanted to talk' I practically mouth 'say hi..'
She rolls her eyes and grumbles something about trying my luck for too often, before closing the door behind me, and pushing me inside 'Say good afternoon' She pushes me into the living room to what's practically all the order members, the majority of whom wear sour expressions on their faces, although, that regular for most of them, like Mad-Eye, but.. did I just get dirts from Professor Lupin?
Ohh..
'Good Afternoon, everyone, we all good?'
*
My hands ache for physical touch from her, not just any, like the rubbish I've had to put up with in recent days
...
I tell my mum that I'm gonna go to the toilet before she gives me food to take with me (because I can't eat dinner here when Angie's around, and she wants me to take some for George anyways, or something), and then make my way upstairs, my hands shaking, my whole arms, shaking..
I reach t(e top of the stairs, and start to walk towards the bathroom, which is right next to Ginny's room, which is where I assume she'll be staying, but, take a second to peek through the gap into my room, where I see someone sitting
'Angie..?'
