A knock at the door made me jump as I opened it and Molly stood smiling motherly at me and she hugged me "Good Morning Dear, how are you and your father doing?" She asked and I shrugged "pretty good I suppose" I said and she nodded slightly noticing me uneasy attitude and sad expression, "Harry should be at the Burrow soon, let's head there and meet them yea?" Molly suggested and I smiled nodding. "Okay make sure you have your trunk and that you are touching me... okay?" She asked and I nodded warmly, she placed a gentle hand on my shoulder and we apparated to the Burrow. I noticed Crookshanks chasing gnomes and I let Ash out to go play, she had gotten bigger and more friendly towards people and I smiled. I dragged my trunk inside to see Arthur yelling at Fred and my brow furrowed "wait until I tell your mother about this!" He said and I heard Molly clear her throat, "M-Molly" Arthur said and everyone turned and saw Molly and I "Tell me what Arthur and hello Harry Dear good to see you" she said and Harry nodded, I hugged myself and leaned against the wall slightly my trunk beside me as I heard Hermione and Ginny walk in "Sam!" Hermione said excitedly and I smiled slightly at her, before looking at the Twins, Ron, and Harry who were moving their gazes between Molly and Arthur.
"Kids leave us for a moment... Ron take Harry and Sam to the bedrooms..." Molly said looking at her husband and Harry spoke up "I already know where-", "Let's go!" I snapped making everyone look at me and I motioned for them to move before I explode and they nodded quickly, I dragged my trunk up the stairs in front avoiding Percy and entering the spare near Fred, and George's room I huffed frustrated as I sat on the bed in near tears again as I put my head in my hands, the last letter burned into my memory as tears run down my face. A knock at the door made me jump as I sucked in a shaking breath, "j-just a sec! I am changing!" I said making an excuse so no one came in while I cried. I dried my face and answered the door, "you're wearing the same clothes as when you got here..." Harry said and I looked at him "that's because you knocked before I could get into anything new" I said deadpanned and he smiled uneasily, "sorry..." He said and I shrugged "it's alright... Did you enjoy the cake I sent you?" I asked he smiled and nodded "of course I did" he said and I smiled slightly my eyes not shining like they used to, "may I come in?" He asked and I opened the door, this room Molly dedicated to me everything was blue and yellow with bits and pieces of silver. I turned and made sure to rub my eyes again, "how is your dad's?" Harry asked and I shrugged "the nightmares are getting worse..." I said honestly and Harry sighed slightly, "I had one before I got here... It was about... People that we cannot discuss here..." Harry said and I nodded slightly in understanding and sat on the bed and looked at the ceiling in frustration and slight anger. "Harry... Draco's father said I can't be friends with Draco anymore..." I said showing the promise ring that I had given to Draco the year before as tears slipped from my eyes, Harry spun on me his eyes wide and he looked at me worried as I stared at the ceiling upset and sad as I cried "I like him... Harry... I can't lose Draco..." I said and Harry had me sit up and brought me into a hug. I continued to cry and hugged Harry as he rubbed my back gently, "I c-can't lose him H-Harry" I said sadly and Harry nodded, "I know Sammy..." He said and a knock made me jump and wipe my eyes slightly and stand and head to the door, Fred and George enter with Hermione, Ginny, and Ron. I wiped my eyes "hey guys...." I said and welcomed them in "what do you guys need...?" I asked and Hermione noticed the ring I gave to Draco and her eyes widened, "oh my Merlin..." She said and I sighed gulping and looked away. "I need you guys to know something that happened before I got here..." I said sitting down on the floor and looking at the confused and crestfallen faces as I took off the ring that I gave Draco the year before and set it on the floor in front of everyone, they all sat down to inspect the ring that I had set on the floor. Fred looked it over gently and looked at me sadly, I placed down the letter and tears pricked my eyes again and I sniffled slightly and hugged my knees to my chest as I cried again. "I am... So done crying but I d-don't want to lose him" I said wiping my eyes again as the others looked at me with pity as I cried. "Out..." I said they looked at me shocked at my sudden mood change "all of you... Out now..." I said again tears brimming my eyes as I pushed all but two people out, Fred and George Weasley my two best friends and they looked at the ring again.
