It was early when we arrived at the burrow. Being only 12, this place was absolutely amazing.

Almost as amazing as Molly Weasley.

Ron didn't know that when I talked about the amazing red headed woman I had felt close to was his mother. He assumed I meant Ginny. I guess it made sense, but she couldn't hold a candle to her mother's kindness.

I had been here for a few days, and I spent as much time as I could with Mrs. Weasley. She was like the mother I never got the pleasure of remembering.

"Mrs. Weasley?" We were in the kitchen, and I was watching her do so many things at once with magic, it was no wonder she was so on top of things.

"Yes, Harry dear? What can I help you with?" I already looked a lot better, able to actually eat and spend time with other people again. I really hated going back to the Dursley family.

"How do you know when you have a crush on someone?" She pauses, looking thoughtful, her voice warm.

"Well, Harry. They make you feel special when you're around. They're what you're usually thinking about, and you want to be around them more than others. Why? Someone catch your eye dear?" I nod, a bit embarrassed, shuffling my feet a bit.

"Yes... I think... I might be crushing on you, Mrs. Weasley."

She pauses, looking over at me, sighing softly as she sets the dough for the dinner bread on the table, wiping flour from her hands.

"Oh Harry, I'm not surprised. Poor thing, always treated the way you are at home. It's not a bad thing, dear, but keep in mind that I'm a mother figure. It is sweet of you though. Here, have a cookie." Handing me a bag, she shoos me from the kitchen, a sweet smile on her face.

I expected her to tell Mr. Weasley. I expected to get yelled at, or laughed at. Surprisingly, I got neither. Just a simple smile, a soft chuckle, and a wink, whenever I passed. No, my attraction to Mrs. Weasley was nothing more than our little secret, and it never would be more. That was okay, I didn't mind. At least I knew no matter what happened, she'd always be there for me.
