... "Just remember Harry," George – or maybe Fred – started. "You hurt her," that was the other twin. "You die," the first one finished. Both twins laughed, but all the Weasley boys stopped short when they saw Ginny standing in front of them. Her expression was so like Molly's at her most furious, it actually made all of them take a step back. Even Bill. Harry extracted himself from Fred and George, and moved forward, trying to diffuse the potentially stressful situation.

The two groups separated at the campground, though Cedric waved goodbye, and asked Harry to give his regards to Susan, whom he had learned would be in the same box as them. Harry returned the wave with a smile, and followed the Weasleys to their reserved spot. He watched in amusement as Arthur wrangled his children into trying to set up their tent by hand. Hermione eagerly waded into the fray, helping Arthur to determine what went where, and the result was a tent that leaned haphazardly to one side, before Arthur sighed in resignation, and used his wand to correct his mistakes.
