The next day was pretty boring without Draco. He had left the very next day when he received the letter and I haven't heard from his since. I wrote to him once or twice, knowing that I shouldn't expect a lot from him in times like these.

I mean I know it's only been a day, but still, I was worried.

"Any word?" Hermione asked and I shook my head.

"He'll write back" Ginny consoled me and I let out a loud sigh.

I was worried for him, but excited too. I was going to start living at the Burrow. It has been so long since I saw Fred and George. They said they were busy with their shop opening.

We left for the holidays on Monday after breakfast.

I was greeted by Mr. and Mrs. Weasley with huge hugs.

"Oh, we are so glad that you are going to staying with us, Liv" Mrs. Weasley said as we entered the door.

"Yes, yes. Finally, someone in the house who will talk to me about muggle things" Mr. Weasley said putting a hand on my shoulder.

"So, tell me, Liv. What is the function of a cellphone?" he asked as we sat down in the kitchen.

"Oh, there aren't one, but plenty. Here, I'll show you" I said pulling it out of my bag and showed him it's functions and everything.

"Is it the voice of our favorite girl we hear?" the twins said in unison.

I stood up and jumped into their arms.

"I missed you guys so much" I said into the hug.

"Sorry" I said when I realized that I left Mr. Weasley hanging.

Mrs. Weasley knew about her husband's obsession with Muggles and muggle things. It was kinda cute. Harry once told me, that at his trial they went through the Muggle entrance and how Mr. Weasley acted.

Ron, Ginny and the twins were also listening carefully to what I was showing and telling. It was like they were babies.

"Oh, erm, Mrs. Weasley, I will not be having dinner at home. I am going to start working at a friend's this summer. It's gonna be night shift, so I'll have dinner at the restaurant" I said as Mr. Weasley started to use the phone.

"Oh, ok dear. Just be careful" she said knowing the risk of me being alone in the muggle world.

"Alright, let me show you our room" Ginny said as I picked up my bag.

"I hope it's fine, dear. Since the Burrow is small, you'll have to share the room with Ginny" Mrs. Weasley said with some embarrassment.

"Of course not, Mrs. Weasley. It'll be just like Hogwarts" I said smiling and we went up to her room.

I unpacked and spend the rest of the day with Ginny in her room. I got ready for work and went down.

"Mrs. Weasley, do you need anything from there. Like groceries and stuff?" I asked as I saw Arthur playing a game on my phone.

"No, no. Arthur will pick up some when he gets back from work. Right, Arthur?" she asked but he didn't reply as he was too engrossed in the game.

"You will spoil him, Liv" Molly said and I smiled at the sight.

"I'll get some" I said sitting down at the dining table for tea.

"Liv-"

"No, Mrs. Weasley. No arguments. You are letting me live here, it's the least I could do" I said sipping my tea.

"Oh, you're like our daughter" she said kindly and I looked up.

"Then good. Your daughter will bring the groceries" I said smiling at the thought of family.
