Mum, Dad, and Bill are here to cheer on Harry for the third task. We are in the Gryffindor common room with them now. You and Emma should come say hello. Appears on my arm the Saturday after my final exam.

I race into our dorm room where Emma is napping. I jump onto her bed and she groans, "Emma get up the Weasleys are here and they want to meet you." I say to her.

Emma rolls over in bed which nearly knocks me off the bed. "They're what?"

"Get up, would you? And put on that pale green dress you love so much." I hop off her bed and change out of my pyjamas and into a grey pencil skirt and a green blouse with a long bow in the front. I wrap my hair up into a bun and stick my wand in it to secure it all into place. By the time I get my shoes on Emma is fully dressed and ready to go.

"They really want to meet me?" Emma says.

"Guess Fred's been talking about you." I wink at her and we run out of the common room, or do our best to run given we are both wearing relatively high heels.

When we turn out of the dungeons I instantly see five redheads bobbing down the stairs, being lead by Harry Potter.

"Molly!" I call.

Molly's face lights up and she races down the stairs to meet me. She wraps me in a big hug, "Violet dear! It's so lovely to see you!" She puts her hands on my cheeks and holds me there for a moment. I'm towering over her so her arms are very outstretched. "You look so much older! And healthy! Have you been eating alright?"

"Mum please, enough with the third degree." George says laughing. He pulls me away from his mother and hugs me close to him.

"Well if she was around more often then I would have more time to ask her all my questions. Course that's not your fault dear, simply an observation." Molly says. She puts her hand on my arm and smiles warmly.

Fred pushes past his family and goes to stand beside Emma. "Mum, Bill... This is Emma... she's a good friend of mine." Fred says.

Emma looks up at Fred, a flash of hurt moves over her face. She shakes it off though and smiles at Molly. "Nice to meet you Mrs. Weasley, Bill. Fred, George, and Violet have told me such wonderful things about you all." Emma puts her hand out for a handshake but Molly ignores it and gives her a big hug instead. Emma looks at me over her shoulder and I can tell she's still not over the fact that Fred called her a friend instead of a girlfriend.

"It's always so nice to meet Fred and George's friends! It lets me know that these two aren't as awful as the letters from their professors make them out to be." Molly says beaming.

"We are getting a tour of the grounds from Harry. Care to join us?" Bill says, "Not like you don't already know your way around."

Emma and I agree to spend the day with the Weasleys. Ginny and I fill Molly in on all the latest gossip while Emma walks behind us in silence. Fred, George, Harry, Ron, and Bill are all talking loudly about something that I can't really be bothered to listen to.

"There you are, are you?" A man says when we walk past the great hall. Cedric is with him so I assume that he's his father. "Bet you're not feeling quite as full of yourself now that Cedric's caught you up on points, are you?"

Every one of the Weasleys, myself included automatically gets defensive. My hand twitches and the only thing I want to do it grab my wand from my hair. I think George knows what I want to do because he grabs a hold of my wand hand and holds it tight. We continue to walk past him, till he opens his mouth again.

"Didn't bother to correct her did he?" Cedric's father says loudly enough for us all to hear, "Still... you'll show him Ced. Beaten him once before, haven't you?"

Molly turns around on her heels and Bill's shoulders slump in defeat. "Rita Skeeter goes out of her way to cause trouble Amos!" she says angrily. "I would have thought you'd know that, working at the ministry!"

Bill puts his hand on his mothers shoulder and tries to steer her away from confrontation. The whole time however, he's staring at Fleur Delacour and by the looks of things she's staring right back.

Amos... Mister Diggory looks as if he's going to say something back but the woman he's with, I figure she's his wife whispers something in his ear and they continue to walk.

"You know what I've just noticed?" George whispers to me. We're now walking along the path in the middle of the Hogwarts grounds.

"What's that?" I say back to him in a hushed tone.

"You and my mum share the same quick, red hot temper. You're both ridiculously protective of people you love."

I look at the back of Molly's head. She's holding Ginny's hand and she's talking to Harry and Bill. "That's the nicest compliment I've ever received." I say to George with a smile on my face.

George looks around the small group. "Where did Emma and Fred head off to?" He says.

I look around, just noticing that the two aren't around anymore. "They're probably having a fight. Given Fred introduced Emma as a really good friend and all."

George laughs, Ron turns around to see what he's laughing at but doesn't say anything, "That was a pretty stupid move on his part. Seriously? A really good friend? They've been screwing for the past what? Four months or so?"

"Something like that yeah." I say smiling, "God he's such an idiot. I gave Emma to him on a silver platter and he still managed to fuck it up."

"Good old Freddie Weasley boys and girls." George says making me laugh.

We spend nearly the whole day talking and roaming the Hogwarts grounds. Harry shows Bill and Molly the Beauxbaton carriage and the Durmstrang ship. Molly is completely fascinated with the Whomping Willow that was planted after she left Hogwarts.

When the lunch bell rings we walk back into the castle, "Violet dear come eat dinner with us." Molly says.

"I have to go sit at the Slytherin table. But I'll definitely be sitting with you all during the final task." I say.

Molly gives me another one of her famous bear hugs and she takes Ginny and Ron into the dining hall. I give Bill a hug as well before he heads off.

George puts his hand on my hip to get my attention and I turn around to look at him. "I'll see you soon alright?" I say to him.

"Why can't you just sit with me at the table? Everyone in Gryffindor knows you've been in the common room."

I peck his lips a couple times quickly, "I have to make sure that Emma is alright. And I have to check in on Draco."

George furrows his eyebrows together, "Check in on Draco? Why, is he alright?"

I pepper his face with more kisses, "I can't tell you that, strictly cousin information only."

I start to walk away from George but he holds onto my wrist and spins me back around. He flashes me a crooked smile before he kisses me, tongue and all right in the middle of the great halls doorway. "Now you can go." George whispers once he's pulled away from me.

"I'll see you later baby." I say to him. I turn and walk away from him but he slaps by ass as I do so.

"Love you!" He calls out.
