Ginny had never been so relieved to see Dumbledore in her life.
He walked into her room, his wizard hat sitting squarely on his head, his spectacles sitting on the bridge of his nose.
He was wearing a long, flamboyant purple robe with a golden outline on the sleeves and neckline.
Knowing that he would be there that night, Ginny hid her inappropriate night gown and put the one Diane picked out for her back on.
"Miss Virginia! I am so sorry to hear about what happened to you and the resulting memory loss," he said, waving a chair over to the side of her bed.
Diane was standing in the door way.
"Virginia, is this the man you remembered?" Diane asked.
Ginny nodded her head.
"Yes, I remember him," she said.
Diane hesitated a bit before saying, "Then I will leave you both to speak privately."
She closed the door behind her.
Ginny let out the breath she had been holding.
"I know you have no idea who I am," Ginny began.
"I did find it odd that I couldn't recall who you were. I am old but I'm not that old," Dumbledore said with a chuckle.
"You are the only person I can trust, Headmaster Dumbledore. I am not from this time," Ginny confessed.
Her heart felt lighter after saying this. It felt good to tell someone.
"What do you mean, dear?"
"I mean, I was somehow transported back to 1977. I'm from 1998."
Dumbledore removed his glasses and wiped them on his robes.
"Start from the beginning, dear. But please be careful not to tell me too much."
Ginny told Dumbledore everything she could, being careful to leave out major events. Dumbledore listened to what she had to say without interruption.
When Ginny finally finished, Dumbledore leaned back in his chair, resting his head on his fingertips.
"This isn't good news, Virginia--"
"Please, just call me Ginny. If I hear Virginia one more time I might strangle someone," Ginny said.
"Of course. Ginny it is. However, I have some bad news. The Time Turner doesn't exist at this point in time."
Ginny's stomach dropped.
"I can't stay in this time!"
Dumbledore held up a hand.
"However, I have no doubt that there are people in the Ministry working on time manipulation right now in the Department of Mysteries. I will contact them and tell them our situation. Hopefully the prospect of being able to work with time will give them all the incentives they need to get you back to your proper time."
Ginny sighed.
"I guess all we can do is wait," she said.
Dumbledore patted her hand.
"Until then, we need to figure out what we can do with you. Do you trust the Malfoys? I'm guessing the family still exists in your time."
'Not as far as I can throw them,' Ginny thought.
"What are my options besides staying with the Malfoys?" Ginny asked.
"Well, I could find a place for you at Hogwarts. It wouldn't take much to make up a story and to get you the proper supplies."
That would have been a great idea if it weren't for the fact that Harry's father, mother, Sirius and Remus would be there. She didn't know if she could face them knowing what she knew about their fates. She would want to save them all and she would want to punch Peter Pettigrew in the face. Not to mention how careful she would have to be about slipping up.
At least at Malfoy Manor she could hide from Lucius Malfoy. She didn't know Malfoy's parents or their fates so it would be easy for her to be herself around them. As distrustful as she was about the family, they really were her best option.
"I think I should stay with the Malfoys, actually. I know the fate of too many of your students for me to feel comfortable with staying at Hogwarts. However, I will only stay if the Malfoys want me to stay."
"I wouldn't worry too much about it, dear. Mrs. Malfoy has taken a liking to you and I have no doubt that with very little prompting, she will welcome you with open arms."
Ginny twisted the sheet in her hand.
"I won't feel comfortable with this until I ask. Dobby," Ginny called.
Dobby popped into the room.
"Can you request Mrs. Malfoy's company for me?" Ginny asked.
"Of course, Miss!"
The house elf left the room.
"The Malfoys are a good family--a bit prejudice but good. Although, I do wonder about Lucius Malfoy at times," Dumbledore mused, staring out the window at the gardens.
"Why do you wonder about Lucius Malfoy?" Ginny asked, curious about his thoughts.
Dumbledore chuckled.
"Why dear, I'm sure you have a better understanding of Lucius Malfoy than I have at this point in time. I wonder about him, but in the end, I think he's harmless."
Ginny bit her lip. Harmless and Lucius Malfoy were not usually in a sentence together in her time. However, she didn't want to do anything to make Dumbledore suspicious. Who knew what that would do to the time line?
Instead, Ginny simply nodded her head and didn't say much else.
Thankfully, Diane Malfoy came through the door before anything else could be asked.
"Well, have we gotten things sorted?" she asked, magically bringing the second chair to the side of the bed.
"I'm afraid not, Mrs. Malfoy. You see, Virginia's parents are second cousins to me, twice removed. Needless to say, it seems as if something has happened to Virginia's parents. But I'm afraid due to Virginia's memory loss, we don't know what."
"Oh dear," Diane said, putting her hand to her mouth and sitting down in the chair.
"I have offered Hogwarts to Virginia, but she seems to feel safer being within your Manor," Dumbledore said.
"I don't want to impose on your company. You have all been so understanding in keeping me here. If you want me to go to Hogwarts, I will," Ginny added.
"It is no trouble at all having you in the Manor. Our house is big and it would be nice to have another woman to talk to since I'm always surrounded by men," Diane said enthusiastically.
"Excellent! Of course, I wouldn't ask you to take in a member of my family without compensation."
"Nonsense! I will take care of Virginia's expenses," Diane said, putting a hand to her chest as if she were insulted at the thought of Dumbledore giving her money.
Ginny suddenly turned bright red. Now she felt horrible about staying with the Malfoys. The last thing she wanted was to be indebted to them because she didn't have any money.
"Really, Mrs. Malfoy, I can fund young Virginia here until we figure out what is going on with the family," Dumbledore insisted.
"I will not take a penny from you, Headmaster. We are more than capable of taking care of Virginia. It really is no trouble. Despite sad circumstances I am happy she will be here."
Diane put a warm hand on Ginny's hand, squeezing it with affection.
Ginny felt her heart grow warm.
This was a woman who only knew Ginny for two days. She was willing to take her in and take care of all of her expenses without accepting anything in return.
Ginny never thought she would see the day where a Malfoy, nonetheless, would be so nice to her.
"Thank you, Mrs. Malfoy," Ginny said, squeezing her hand back.
