The World is Falling Apart...Again(Ginny)

[Deleted]

Bill stood on the beach looking at the sun as it rose over the horizon. It was early morning and here he was out on the beach a good ways away from Shell Cottage, but he could still see his family’s house, which had become much larger as their family grew. He loved being at home with his wife, but at times he did miss his kids, for they always brought so much happiness to Fleur and himself. Sure Bill and Fleur were as happy as could be but he was a little stressed out because of how much Fleur was worrying about everyone. He knew that she didn’t like him being sent off for weeks at a time doing who knows what. Last time he had been away he was making alliances with the goblins, who were just as worried about the fate of the wizarding world as they knew it, as the Order was. He had succeeded in getting the support of the goblin nation, and he knew that they would do anything in their power to keep their end of the bargin, as the Order was bound to their end of the bargin as well. It was a small victory but it was very much needed if they were to keep the world together.

He also thought back to the Order meeting, it was great to see everyone, but he only conversed with Harry, Ron, and Neville, before he had left to go continue his job in securing the support of the goblins. Bill had gotten an earful for leaving without at least saying hi or goodbye to his daughter and wife. But that was in the past. He also wondered how Ginny was doing, his favorite little sister, okay his only sister. He thought about going to go see Ginny at her and Harry’s home in Godric’s Hollow, but that would have to wait for another day. For he had promised Fleur that he would not go anywhere today.

As he stood there Bill thought about the fight that he had with Greyback and made a silent vow that the next time he would kill the bastard. Off in the distance he could see several owls fly down to the cottage and then fly away after leaving letters, and what not there. Bill sighed and began walking the opposite direction, away from the home the he shared with Fleur, and their kids when they came to stay, trying to clear his mind.

It was another day off for Ginny, which meant spending time with family. She figured she hadn't seen Bill in a while, and that just wouldn't do. He was probably Gins favorite brother growing up, and she wasn't afraid to admit that. That is, until he left and she got to know Fred and George really well. But still, she was very close to Bill. He was her only brother never to leave her out of things just because she was a girl. In fact, he respected women more than anyone Ginny knew. That was probably how he got landed with a veela, Phlegm. Nah, Fleur wasn't as annoying as she used to be, in fact, Ginny rather liked the woman she had become.

She aparrated just outside of shell cottages protective barrier, and began walked toward the home. She didn't get far before she saw Bill walking as well, seeming to be pondering the universe in all its wonder. She chuckled at that thought and made her way over to her bother. He wasn't too far away from where she had landed, but she still had a bit of distance to cover.

"Hey there," she greeted, catching up to him with a slight jog. She lightly tapped his arm, "you okay?" she glanced up at him as she spoke. She could understand his being lost in thought, It was hard not to get wrapped in your mind whilst walking on the white sand.

Bill had been lost in thought as he walked, his ears heard a person approaching him but he was too lost in thought to think about who it could be before the person lightly tapped his arm. He had already drawn his wand by the time that he noticed who it was that had disturbed his musings. “Sorry about that Ginny.” Bill said looking at his little sister with a smile before he stowed his wand away, she was one of only two people that could sneak up on him, the other being his wife. In normal circumstances he wouldn’t have been so jumpy but being a curse breaker and now having to fight in another war well one never could be too careful. “Yeah I’m fine sis, just thinking about many things. You know how it is.” Bill replied to Ginny’s question, before he turned and gave her a hug.

“Care to join me?” Bill asked as he stuck his arm out a little so that Ginny could take it. “So what brings you all the way out to Shell Cottage on this beautiful morning?” Bill asked in a curious tone, wondering just why his sister was here, not that he minded or anything. He loved spending time with his only sister. Once Ginny had taken his arm they started walking the same direction that he had been headed earlier.

Bill let out a sigh. “Ginny, the next time I see Greyback I am going to kill the bastard. I would have done so the last time we met but I only got his damn arm, I slipped on a wet rock as he sent a killing curse towards me. I only hope that I can get to him before he does any harm to any more people than he has already done harm to.” Bill said letting out some frustration in his tone. That beast did not deserve to live, not for all the pain and trouble he had caused. “On anther note how are you holding up? And how is your unruly husband holding up? Also how are the kids doing?” Bill asked his sister after he had let out some of his frustration having said his last few thoughts about Greyback out loud. He wondered just how Ginny’s family was doing. He saw Harry often enough that he knew how the man was taking everything. Like a champ, that is how he was taking everything, it was just a part of what that man was born to do. Be a leader both in war and out of war. However he did want Ginny’s take on it all.

Ginny just chuckled as he pulled his wand on her, not surprised in the list. The world was a dangerous place and Bill knew that more than many others did. She accepted his hug, holding him tightly. Ginny had always felt closest to Bill growing up, until she became better friends with Fred and George, but the deep sibling connection was still there. She loved her brother so much, and she loved that they could see each other often as of late. Now that they were rebuilding the Order, it was no surprise that she would be seeing a lot of him. "Of course!" she replied as he asked if she would like to join him on his stroll. She linked her arm through his as they began to walk.

"Oh, I had a day off and I thought of you," she shrugged, "I wanted to see if you were doing all right. You know... you know how it is," she chuckled as she reused his words from only a few moments ago. Bill was one of the people that she worried about the most. Not that he couldn't hold his own, but she often worried that he would be overpowered by all of the enemies he had made over the years.

Ginny listened intently as Bill discussed Greyback. "You'll get to him, I'm sure of it," she encouraged. She could tell he was beating himself up over not having finished the job last time. She patted his arm gently as they walked, knowing that this was something that troubled him dearly.

When he changed the subject, Ginny sighed a little, pursing her lips to the side and looking down at their feet. "I'm doing... all right I suppose. Harry is confident and brave, as always. I mean, even he has his struggles but he more often than not overcomes them," she started to explain, "Lily is doing very well, as is Albus. He was recently invited to join the new and improved 'Slug Club', so that's neat," she chuckled. Then her smile vanished again and she felt tears start to prick her eyes, "my Jamesy however... well, you know how he found that girl on the train. It's really troubling him, Bill, he'd never seen anything like that before," she said-emotion starting to seep into her voice.
