Harry Potter and What Happened After - Sahits

"Yeah," said Ron, a far away look on his face. "Look, I told George that I was going to stop by the shop
before lunch, I'll see the three of you back at the Burrow." He quickly kissed Hermione and ran ahead
to the Apparation spot. He Apparated away quickly, leaving the three of them standing on the grounds.
"Hm…it's not like Ron to be so…forgiving…about giving away money," said Ginny as the three
arrived at the apparition spot, "I wonder what he's up to."
The three turned into nothing and were soon back at the Burrow. "George really did ask him to come by
the shop after we were done," said Hermione as they walked towards the back door, "I think he wanted
some help with restocking today, he's reopening the shop in a week. It's the first time he's opened in
nearly 6 months, and it's with out Fred."
"But why Ron?" asked Ginny, "Other than Percy he was the one that was least like the twins."
"I think that may have something to do with it," said Harry, a frown spreading across his face, "I think
it may be that George isn't looking for somebody like Fred, but somebody who's almost an opposite."
"Yeah," said Ginny, her voice betraying the sadness she was feeling at the thoughts of her dead brother.
Harry pulled her a bit closer as they walked into the kitchen and sat down at the table. "George is
looking for somebody who will ground him, somebody who will tell him when he's goofing off to
much, somebody to keep the business running."
"That doesn't sound like George," said Hermione as she sat down. She winced as she moved, she wasn't
used to sitting on a broom for hours at a time, and she had been on a broom for most of the last day an a
half.
"Your right, but when the two of them were cooped up at Aunt Muriel's they were about ready to go
crazy." Said Ginny as she and Harry sat down, much easer than Hermione had. "They both said that
once the war was over they were going to have a huge re-opening, they were even planning on buying
Zonko's. I think George wants to do that still, but now that Fred's gone he wants to make sure Weasley
Wizarding Wheezes stays open, but I don't think he wants to be really responsible right now. He wants
to have enough fun for both of them."
Hermione sat silent for a second, a contemplative look on her face, and then she nodded, "That makes
sense. We'll just make sure he doesn't get too wild, he may become reckless now."
Harry and Ginny just nodded, both had come to the same conclusion and were a bit worried that
George may become either extremely reckless, or the exact opposite, afraid to go out into the world that
killed his twin.
