[ Lazy Days at The Burrow. ]
-> present day

Evanna awoke abruptly to someone shaking her. She shot up from the bed, face to face with the woman who disrupted her sleep.

"Wake up sleepyhead! Everyone's already up!" Ginny said.

It was late summer, and Evanna was staying at The Burrow. She threw a pillow at Ginny, annoyed that she couldn't let her be.

"Hey! I'm doing you a favour, Fred and George said that they'd wake you up themselves if you didn't get up soon, and we know that wouldn't end well..." She said and the girls chuckled.

"Thanks." Evanna said, rubbing some sleep from her eyes and stretching out her arms. "What time is it?"

"It's 11:30! Hermione's coming over tonight, remember?"

"Oh yeah!" Evanna said, feeling excited and sitting up straighter. She hasn't seen her friend since the end of the school year, when the chamber of secrets had been opened.

"C'mon, let's go before the others think you're dead."

Evanna got out of the spare bed in Ginny's room, and lazily followed her downstairs to see the rest of the Weasley's fully awake.

"I see you've managed to get the bear out of her natural habitat." George said.

"Good morning to you too!" Evanna replied.

"Morning, Evy!" He said in a sing song voice. Evanna smiled until he added, "Even though it's almost afternoon now..." She rolled her eyes and went to the kitchen table, where Fred sat watching Ginny and Ron bicker as per usual.

"Ron, slow down! You and grilled cheese aren't even married yet!"

"Shut up, Ginny." Ron said with a mouthful of grilled cheese.

Evanna took a seat at the table across from Fred who shook his head at the two before directing his attention towards her.

"Hey! Nice of you to finally join us!" He said sarcastically.

Evanna let out a sigh and said "I just like my sleep, okay?!" As Fred smiled and shook his head before walking over to George. Just then her stomach let out a growl, and as if on cue, Mrs. Weasley walked in from the backyard with dirt all over her clothes. She must have been gardening.

"Hello dear! Glad you're awake! I heard your stomach from outside, would you like a sandwich?" She asked, taking off her gloves and dusting off her clothes.

"Hello, Mrs. Weasley. That'd be great, thank you."

"I guess after your slumber you've worked up an appetite.." Evanna heard Ginny say as she walked past. She couldn't help but laugh at everyone's remarks about her sleeping in.

Mrs. Weasley handed Evanna her grilled cheese sandwich, which was cut into four pieces. With a 'thank you' she dug into the sandwich. She definitely felt hungrier than she was, she'd figured she could eat the whole thing, but she had a piece left, grasping Rons' attention.

"You gonna eat that?" He asked her.

"Nope. It's all yours." She replied pushing the dish towards him before she left to go get dressed.
