===August 1, 1994===
Ginny, Amanda, and Draco all sit at the kitchen counter eating at Claire's house. A pair of owls fly in and drop off letters in front of Ginny and Amanda.
Ginny carefully opens her letter:
Ginerva Weasley,
This is to inform you that a provisional vault has been set up in your name. Please come in at your convenience with this letter so we can go through the steps to make this vault truly yours.
Sincerely,
Grimlok,
Potter Estate Manager
"I think Harry set up a vault for me." Ginny says.
"Good for you." Amanda says "I got my letter acknowledging that I'm now officially a Hogwarts student. It also has my list of supplies, all of which are different than what I needed at Salem."
"Then please allow me to pay for all of your Hogwarts supplies." Draco requests.
"Is this how you're going to try to win me over?" Amanda asks. "With money?"
"Of course not." Draco says. "Your transfer is partially my fault, so buying your supplies is the very least I can do."
Amanda nods. "Oh, that makes sense."
Richard and Helen walk into the room. Ginny looks at them as she asks. "Is it possible for us to go to Diagon Alley today?"
"I think we can manage that." Richard says.
#####
Ginny walks into Gringotts and up to the teller. "Excuse me please."
"How can I help you?" The goblin asks.
Ginny hands the goblin her letter. "I got this earlier today."
The goblin looks at the letter then hands it back. "Let me get your account manager, Miss Weasley." He goes to the back and comes out a few minutes later with Grimlok.
"Ginerva Weasley?" Grimlok asks.
"I prefer Ginny, if you would."
"I am Grimlok, Potter Estate Manager."
Ginny nods. "Pleased to meet you." Then after a brief pause she speaks again. "What do I need to do to access this vault?"
"Harry claims you're his sister, all we need to do is confirm that." Grimlok says. "So if you'd follow me I'll take you back for a lineage test."
"Lead on, if you would, please. " Ginny requests. Grimlok nods and leads the way through the bank to one of the silver tables.
"Here we are." Grimlok says.
Ginny grabs the silver knife and slices her palm open then places it on the table. Within seconds it shows exactly what she had been told.
"Congratulations, Miss Weasley, the vault is now yours to access." Grimlok says as he hands her the key.
"Thank you," Ginny says as she takes the key. "I was hoping to take the Potter name, is that possible?"
Grimlok nods. "Harry mentioned you might want to do so, and signed parchmentwork saying you could."
"What do I need to do?" Ginny says.
"I have the form here for you, we can file it for you." Grimlok says as he hands her the form.
Ginny takes the form and starts filling it out. "Thank you, very much."
"It's always a pleasure to deal with a Potter." Grimlok says.
Ginny nods as she finishes filling out the form. "Here you go."
Grimlok takes the form. "Now, would you like to see your vault?"
#####
Ginny meets up with Draco and Amanda as they are getting Amanda's supplies. True to his word Draco pays for everything. Once they have gotten everything they go to leave Diagon Alley.
"Found you!" Luna says as she hugs Ginny from behind.
Ginny laughs as she turns around so she can hug her back. "You certainly did."
"Luna, what have I told you about running off?" Xenophilius asks as he comes up to the group.
"Sorry, Daddy." Luna says as she releases Ginny and goes to her father's side.
"Xenophilius. Nice to see you again." Ginny says.
"If it isn't Ginny Weasley, or is it Potter now?" Xenophilius asks.
Ginny smiles. "It's Potter, but I kept Weasley as my middle name." Ginny answers.
"What are you going to do when you marry?" Xenophilius teases.
"I'll worry about it when the time comes." Ginny replies.
"Good answer." Xenophilius says. "I was hoping Luna could stay with you for the rest of the summer as I don't want to leave her alone."
"I'd have to ask Hermione's parents, since I'm staying with them." Ginny says.
"Where are they?" Xenophilius asks.
"Waiting at The Leaky Cauldron." Ginny says. "We were just heading to meet them."
"Good timing then." Xenophilius says.
#####
"Helen and Richard Granger, I'd like you to meet Xenophilius Lovegood." Ginny says.
"Luna's father, I assume?" Richard asks.
Xenophilius nods. "I know we just met, but I need to add you a favor."
Richard laughs. "Go on and ask."
"I need to go somewhere I'd rather not take my Moonbeam. I was hoping she could stay with you." Xenophilius says.
"If she can share a room with Ginny I think we can work it out." Helen says.
"We're going to need a bigger place at this rate." Richard says, mirthfully.
Xenophilius smiles. "I might just know the people to help you."
===August 2 1994===
Early the next morning, the smell of bacon wafts through the house. Helen and Richard Granger wake up to the smell and look at their alarm clocks: sure enough, as they do the clocks go off for the morning. Curious, Richard throws on a robe and goes downstairs while Helen showers.
Richard enters the kitchen only to find Ginny and Luna cooking. Amanda sits at the table with a plate of food. "Morning Uncle Richard.' Amanda says.
"Morning Amanda," Richard says. "Ginny, Luna what are you two doing?"
"Cooking breakfast." Ginny answers. "Is there something wrong with that?"
"Of course not, we just don't normally go to all the trouble to cook like this on the weekdays." Richard answers.
"Why not?" Ginny asks.
"Since both of us work we don't normally have the time to cook and clean up." Richard explains.
"I don't mind cooking, as long as you're okay with it." Ginny says and Richard nods. "As for clean up." She pulls out her wand and moves next to Amanda before casting a spell that makes the dishes start cleaning themselves.
"Impressive spell, but why did you step next to me?" Amanda asks.
"I'm sure how broad the trace is, so just being safe." Ginny answers.
"I don't see how standing next to me is going to help that." Amanda says.
"One of the perks of being married is we're considered of age." Draco explains. "So we can cast magic at will."
"Wait! Seriously?" Amanda asks. Draco nods. "Why didn't you tell me this sooner?"
"I thought you knew." Draco says.
"This means I can show my parents magic!" Amanda says excitedly.
"Except they took your portkey back to America yesterday." Ginny says.
"Damn, I didn't think of that." Amanda says.
"What if we went to see them next summer?" Draco offers.
"You'd be willing to do that?"
"Of course, did you think I was going to keep you from your family?" Draco asks.
Amanda blushes. "Maybe a little?"
"Why would you think that?" Draco asks.
"Last year at Salem there was a pair of seventh year purebloods that had been handfasted. I heard enough to know that the husband had expected the wife to completely forget about her old family. When I asked around the consensus was that was how purebloods were." Amanda explains.
"No wonder you're so against this." Draco says. "It's nothing like that here, at least as far as I'm aware. Nothing is more important than family, so I'd never expect you to forget your family."
Amanda sighs in relief. "I'm so sorry, I've not been very nice to you, have I?"
"No, but now I understand why." Draco says.
Amanda nods. "Okay, let's do this. Go ahead and plan a visit to Florida for next summer."
Draco nods. "I'm going to go write the letter to start the process." He heads off.
Loki wanders into the kitchen. "Hey, I remember seeing that cat at the wedding." Amanda says then goes back to eating.
Loki jumps up on the counter. 'I'll have you know I'm half-kneazle.' She thinks to Amanda.
Amanda stops eating in shock. "What?!"
Ginny chuckles, "I'm assuming she thought spoke to you." Amanda nods. "She's Hermione's familiar, her collar is magical and allows her to do that."
"I didn't know magic could do that." Amanda admits.
=== August 7 1994 ===
Draco knocks on Amanda's door. Amanda opens the door. "Draco?"
Draco clears his throat. "Miss Amanda Granger, would you be so kind as to accompany me this Friday to dinner and dancing?"
Amanda smiles. "I would be delighted."
"Thank you." Draco says with a bow.
Once Draco leaves Amanda comes out and finds Helen. "Hello there, Aunt Helen." She says with a condescending tone.
Helen sighs. "What did I do?"
Was it really necessary to teach Draco to talk like that?" Amanda asks.
Helen chuckles. "Yes, it fits him."
Amanda pauses as she realizes that it really does fit Draco perfectly. She blushes slightly. "You have a good point."
"I'm trying to think not only what would be good for you, but what would be good for him too." Helen explains.
"I'm sorry, I keep just thinking about myself." Amanda admits.
"It's alright, you'll figure it out."
=== August 12 1994 ===
Draco waits at the bottom of the stairs dressed in a suit and tie. Amanda comes down in a sleek black dress and her hair done up. Draco feels his heart in his throat, he has never seen a girl wear something like this. She flashes him a smile. "Ready?" She asks.
"Yes, my dear." Draco says as he escorts her to the awaiting car.
#####
Late that night the two of them return to the house. "You know, I had fun tonight." Amanda says.
"Oh?" Draco says, a tone of hope in his voice.
"Next weekend, can we have another date?" Amanda asks.
Draco nods. "Of course."
=== August 26 1994 ===
Draco and Amanda return from another date. "Come on up to my room, I want to talk."
Draco nods and follows her. Once they're in her borrowed room she indicates to close the door and he does. "Something on your mind?" Draco asks.
"This." Amanda kisses Draco.
"That was intense." Draco says after the kiss.
Amanda blushes. "Get used to it, boyfriend."
Draco grins as he realizes he's cleared the first stage of their relationship. "Yes...girlfriend."
"Now, I would like to see this Manor you told me about." Amanda says.
Draco nods. "Be ready to go after breakfast tomorrow."
=== August 27 1994 ===
After breakfast Draco leads Amanda outside to the Grangers' moderately sized fenced-in backyard. "Dobby." Draco says and the house-elf appears causing Amanda to jump backwards.
"You summons me, Young Master?" Dobby says.
"What is that?" Amanda asks.
"One of my family's servants, his name is Dobby." Draco explains. "Dobby, this is your new mistress Amanda Malfoy nee Granger."
"Grangie?" Dobby asks. "Like the great Harry Potter's Grangie?"
"Yes, she's my cousin." Amanda says. "We're outside her home right now."
"Take us to Malfoy Manor." Draco orders. Dobby grabs their hands and takes them to the Manor.
