Ginny had been silent since she met Hermione at the entrance to the Heads’ office.

She wasn’t sure she was ready to reveal what had happened in the astronomy tower. Something about the magic of the bond had her nerves alight with worry, and she wanted to process before revealing anything to her friends.
