Mrs. Weasley and Ginny came out to my house to get me. I was already packed for school. My stuff was by the door and I was holding Crookshanks in my arms and petting him on the couch. The doorbell rings. "That must be them!" I smile and call out to my mum who was in the kitchen finishing the dishes. "I'll get it," Dad says getting up from his spot on the couch and opening the door and my mum comes out of the kitchen with a towel in hand. It looks as if they got a new car from the ministry. I laugh and shake my head thinking about what happened to their last one. "Monica! Wendell!" Mrs. Weasley says smiling as my mum and Mrs. Weasley hug. "Molly!" mum says. "Thank you so much for taking her!" Mum says. "She's always a pleasure." Mrs. Weasley says and Ginny steps out from behind her and I put my cat down and we run to each other and hug. "I've missed you!" We say at the same time and laugh. "Dad, Fred, George, and Ron went to pick up Harry." She blushes. Oh no! That cannot be good. They probably caused some trouble, but Ginny has had a thing for Harry since 2nd year.

Ginny and I have some girl talk for a little bit while my parents and Mrs. Weasley are talking. "Well, we should be get going to see what the damage my husband and sons have made." She laughs and we all get-up. My dad picks my trunk up and my duffle bag I have for the trip to the Quidditch World Cup. I put Crookshanks in his travel case and I grab my messenger bag full of my books, my wand, and my uniform to change into on the train and walk out of the house. Dad puts my trunk in the boot and I put Crookshanks and my bag in the backseat and turn to my parents. "I love you, 'Mione," Dad says hugging me. "Be careful while you're out there alright?' he asks me. "I will dad, I love you too," I say hugging him back. "Bye mum," I say hugging her. "Have fun and don't forget to write! I love you, baby." She says she hugs me really tight. "I love you too mum. Don't worry I will write every week." I say. Letting go of my mum. Dad moves closer to mum and she looks up at him and smiles and he wraps his arm around her shoulder and brings her closer and she wraps hers around his waist. I can't help but smile getting into the car. I want a love like that. They haven't fallen out of love in the sixteen years they've been together.

We pull out of my driveway and they wave and head back inside. We start driving down the road and Mrs. Weasley pulls into to an unnoticed field and takes off in the flying car and we head to the burrow. Ginny tells me all about her summer and what her brothers have done. She also has been writing Harry a lot and it's really cute. They'd be a great couple and in turn, I tell her what my family has done. We went on a couple of trips to France and to the mountains with some of my cousins and had a cook out and made smores. She loves hearing about what "muggles" do; she finds them really fascinating.

"Hey! Dad told us that there is a new professor for the defense against the dark arts who has pretty much gone insane," Ginny says. Whoa. "Well, looks like we will have a treat," I say and before we know it we've landed at the burrow. We hear a bunch of ruckus coming from inside the house. We get out of the car and Mrs. Weasley uses "Locomotor trunk" to carry everything behind her.

"You wait until I tell your mother," Mr. Weasley says. "Tell me what?" Mrs. Weasley says with her hands on her hips and her eyes screams "I know something's up." "Hello, Harry, dear." She spots him and smiles letting us and my trunk and duffle come in and lets itself down on the floor next to the door. Then she snaps back at Mr. Weasley. "Tell me what, Arthur?" She asks again. Mr. Weasley hesitated. Ginny saw Harry and starts to blush. She repeats her question. "It's nothing, Molly," he mumbled "Fred and George just – but I've had words with them-" he says. "What have you done this time?" Mrs. Weasley says. "If it's got anything to do with Weasley's Wizard Wheezes." She starts. "Hey, Ginny, why don't you show me to your room and Harry and Ron can come along and show Harry where he's to sleep," I say. Ron, I swear if he starts protesting. "He already knows." He says. I look at him and he catches on and I roll my eyes. "oh alright. I'll grab your bag." George says. "You stay right where you are." Mrs. Weasley snaps. We start out for the bedrooms. "What are Weasley's Wizard Wheezes?" Harry asks as we the go up the stairs. Ron and Ginny start laughing.
