Ginny was walking through the kitchen in the Burrow, readying herself for the return to Hogwarts. Snatching a final handful of sweets from the kitchen table, she snaffled one, and dropped the rest into her bag.
Her stomach gave an ominous gurgle as she swallowed it, the sweet Strawberry flavour coating her throat delightfully as it went down. With Ron already in the car, she was waiting, as ever for the twins. Fred and George were doubtless trying to sneak various supplies past their parents, for sale to the students.
It was something that Ginny felt confused about. On one hand she admired their inventiveness and intelligence, even if they didn't apply it to their studies and exams. She liked their work ethic, though they'd never see it in those terms. At the same time, she was proud of her parents, and the ability to provide a happy home, and not be driven by money.

Clumping heavily down the crooked stairs, the pair were slyly jamming the last few items into their bag. Fred and George scooped up, the last of the sweets from the table. Sharing them out evenly between the two.
"This'll be the real earner this year..." Fred muttered to his twin.
His answer was an elbow in the ribs, and a tilt of his head towards Ginny. Fred fell silent.
