Ron's PoV

We asked Maya a few more questions, but she refused to answer any of them.

"Well, that was a wonderful interrogation, but I have to go now," Maya said and tried to walk away, but Bill and Charlie caught her and sat her back down.

"What now?" She asked crossly.

"No need to take that tone with us," Bill said and she glared.

"No need to make me come and meet you, and then ask me a lot of questions," She shot back.

"Why are you so upset?" Charlie asked her softly.

"Upset?" She asked him.

"Yeah, you're all upset and snappy" He told her in a soothing voice.

"I'm not upset," She said.

"Are you mad?" I asked her.

"Furious," She said.

"See you're disguising the upset and sad feelings you have as anger," Charlie said.

"You're not my therapist," She snapped at him.

"I'm just trying to get to know my younger sister and help her," He told her soothingly.

"The only way you can help me right now is by magically erasing my memory and letting me think that none of this happened and letting me go back to my old life," She said.

"We can't do that," Bill said.

"Then why don't you just let me adjust to all this, come back in 2 or 3 years," She said.

"Why that long?" Charlie asked her.

"See you in a few years," She said brightly and sprinted out.

"I have a feeling that she's so used to keeping a wall around herself, she's not letting us in," Charlie said.

"No really," Bill told him sarcastically.

"I'll get her," I said and they nodded.

I went up to our room and opened the door. She was on her bed drawing, when I walked in she looked up.

"Whats that?" I asked pointing to a weird shaped case, like a muggle guitar case.

"My Guitar," She said.

"Can you play for me?" I asked her.

(See video above)

"Whoa, oh, oh, Whoa, oh, oh, Whoa, oh, oh, Whoa, I'm waking up to ash and dust, I wipe my brow and I sweat my rust, I'm breathing in the chemicals, I'm breaking in, shaping up, then checking out on the prison bus, This is it, the apocalypse, Whoa," She began to sing softly.

When she finished she looked up at me and I grinned widely at her.

"You're really good," I told her.

"What, weren't expecting me to be good?" She joked and my face grew red.

"No, I, uh, didn't," I stuttered and she laughed.

It was the first time I heard her laugh and it sounded beautiful. Her laugh was musical and as clear as bells. I crushed her in a hug and she stiffened before patting my back.

"Well, come on! Lets go have dinner," I said and she rolled her eyes at me.

"You're crazy," She said.

"No, I'm hungry," I said and dragged her downstairs.

"We're eating outside," A very bad tempered Mom said,"There's not enough room for 12 people in here. Could you take the plates outside, girls? Bill and Charlie are setting up the tables. Knives and forks, please, you two," She said to me and Harry.

Maya's PoV

I grabbed a few plates and walked outside with Hermione and Ginny. Bill and Charlie started to play with 2 old tables and attempted to know each other's table out of the air. Bill's table caught Charlie's table with a huge bang and knocked one of it's legs off. There was a clatter from overhead, and we all looked up to see Percy's head poking out of a window on the second floor.

"Will you keep it down!" He bellowed.

"Sorry, Perce," Bill said grinning at him, "How're the cauldron bottoms coming on?"

"Very Badly," He said and slammed the window shut.

"Dramatic much," I muttered and Ron snickered.

Chuckling, Bill and Charlie directed the tables safely onto the grass, end to end, and then, with a flick of his wand, Bill reattached the table leg and conjured tablecloths. By 7, the tables were sagging under the food of Mrs. Weasley and we were all sitting down to eat. I was listening into all the conversations and thinking of new songs to post on my youtube channel. I ate a small portion of food and took out my sketch book. I started to draw the table with all the Weasleys and Harry and Hermione in the picture.

"What are you drawing?" Ron asked me trying to peak.

"Nothing," I said slamming the book shut.

"Come ON, can I see, please, please, please?" He asked me.

"No," I said firmly.

"Please?"

"No"

"Please?"

"No"

"Please?"

"No,"

"Please"

"No"

"Why not?"

"It's private,"

"Like everything else?"

"Precisely."

"Why?

"Because I don't want you to see it,"

"Why not?"

"Because its private,"

"But I'm your brother,"

"Too bad,"

"But,"

"No,"

"Fine,"

"Thank you,"

"So, have you heard from Sirius lately?" Ron asked Harry quietly.

"Yeah, twice. He sounds okay. I wrote to him yesterday. He might write back while I'm here," Harry said softly.

"Look at the time," Mrs. Weasley errr... Mom said suddenly, "You really should be in bed, the whole lot of you, you'll be up at the crack of dawn to get to the cup. Harry, if you leave your school list out, I'll get your things for you tomorrow in Diagon Alley. I'm getting everyone else's. There might not mr time after the World Cup, the match went on for 5 days last time,"

"Wow, hope it does this time," Harry said enthusiastically.

"Well, I certainly don't," Percy said, "I shudder to think what the state of my in-tray would be if I was away from work for 5 days,"

"Yeah, someone might slop dragon dung in it again, eh, Perce?" Fred said.

"That was a sample of fertilizer from Norway!" Percy said his face getting red, "It was nothing personal!"

"It was," I heard Fred whisper to Harry, "We sent it,"

"What do you do for work?" I asked Percy.

"I work at the Ministry of Magic, where I am assistant to Bartemius Crouch," He told me.

"Oh, thats..... Cool?" I said and he puffed out his chest, full of pride. 

"Come ON! Hermione and I want to play 20 questions with you," Ginny said to me and tugged me into her room after we finished dinner.

We all sat down and Ginny grinned.

"Maya, what's your favorite color?" Ginny asked me.

"Purple, what about you guys?" I said thinking of my best friend.

"I like Green," Ginny told me.

"Blue," Hermione said.

"Crush?" Hermione asked me.

"Nope," I said.

"Harry," Ginny said.

"I think I might like Ron," Hermione confessed.

"Favorite Celebrity?" I asked.

"I like Sabrina Carpenter," Hermione said grinning at me.

"Me too, Hermione showed me one of her songs and I love her!" Ginny cheered.

Awkward......

"Oh, I like Adele and Christina Aguilera ," I said.

"They're pretty good too," Hermione said.

"I don't know them," Ginny said.

We played a little more, before it was time for bed. I went up to Ron and I's room after getting ready for bed, and saw that Ron was fast asleep, but Harry was awake and sitting on his bed looking at a photo album.

"Hey," I said softly and Harry looked up at me.

"Hi," He said.

I shut the door behind me, "So, who's Sirius?"

He jumped, "How do you know about him?"

Wow Harry, good job at keeping a secret.

"I heard you and Ron talking about him," I said shrugging.

"He's my Godfather, he was framed for murder though and almost everyone thinks that he's evil. But he was framed and it was someone named Peter Pettigrew. Who is an animigus in the form of a rat. He's an animigus in the form of a Dog, they're both unregistered though," He told me.

"Oh, sweet," I said.

He smiled at me and I gave him a half smile in return.

"So, do you think I should have my hair red?" I asked him and he nodded.

"Can you do red hair and bright green eyes like mine?" He requested and I nodded.

I focused and felt my hair change and then made my eyes change. I looked at him and he smiled at me widely.

"I love it," He said and I grinned at him.

"Whats with the hair and eyes?" I asked him.

"Well, my Mum had Red hair and green eyes, but I never got to see it in real life," He told me but then flushed a bright red, "I didn't mean that you're my Mum, but I ugh, I just wanted to see it, and it looks good on you," He stuttered.

"Oh, well thanks, but I think I'll just stick with Blonde hair, blue eyes," I said and he smiled at me broadly.

"So, what's Quidditch again?" I asked Harry, interrupting the silence that settler between us.

He started to explain to me.
