Sniffling and hiccuping, Abigail caught the lifting of Charlie's cheek as he turned away to finish casting the defensive spells, giving her the impression that he was smiling at the complement he had received from Emily. The idea had her feeling a little... jealous. She blinked at the idea and almost immediately felt guilty. She had no right to monopolize the happiness of her best friend. Brushing if you matted pieces of hair out of her face and rubbing the heel of her hand against her cheeks to wipe away some of the residue of tears as best she could, she finally Took a reluctant step back from her friend. Almost immediately, Emily collapsed onto her knees, clutching at her side, and Abby gasped, hands flying out, but not touching in case she furthered any discomfort. The labored request for her bag A moment before now made sense and had The brunette nodding quickly, her body twisting almost instantaneously around, hurrying forward and scooping up the abandoned knapsack before rushing back to her sister and setting it in front of her. "Here you go." She murmured, eyebrows drawing together in a worried crinkle as she watched Emily struggling to breathe, digging in one of her pouches for the necessary potions. She hadn't heard any of the whispered conversation about broken ribs, so she couldn't say exactly what was wrong with her friend, but she didn't need to know the details. Emily was hurt, that's what mattered. As the contents of the vials were swallowed and Emily's breathing seemed to ease, Abigail found herself breathing more easily as well. Bless The wizards that had first thought to make potions. The twins called out from inside the little building, pulling her attention away from her thoughts momentarily, and she hesitated. Glancing back down at Emily, she was tempted to argue, but the soft urging of her friend to go inside wasn't something she could easily ignore. She wasn't a very argumentative person and she knew that if there was anything really serious, Emily wouldn't be so quick to let Abigail go inside, leaving her alone with a stranger. So the brunette leaned down, gently kissing the top of her friend's head, before turning and heading towards the shack. "don't you dare keep it for me if you're still hurting later." She threatened teasingly over her shoulder, disappearing inside and glancing around.. "Oh!" Abigail exclaimed as she caught sight of Fred and George at the table, plates of sandwiches and cakes in front of them. "This looks absolutely wonderful! Thank you!" She beamed, finally beginning to relax around the Weasleys now that the uncertainty of her friend's safety was resolved and she had a roof over her head for the first time and what felt like forever. Rushing over to the table and plopping down into a chair, she eagerly collected one of the sandwiches and bit into it, unable to stifle a small groan of satisfaction. At that moment, the sandwich was the best thing she had ever tasted! After several more bites, it dawned on her that she was being quite rude, stuffing her face and ignoring the company. Swallowing her last mouthful, Abigail smiled sheepishly at the twins, saying the first thing that came to her mind as a conversation starter. "So, you mentioned that we are going somewhere Calld the Burrow... Is it some sort of underground base for the Order?" --- Charlie had in fact smiled, though he had also turned away at the same time, not wanting to further interrupt the touching moment between the two witches. Casting the last of the defensive spells, he slipped his wand back into his pocket and had just turned around to suggest going inside win Emily lowered herself down onto her knees, clutching at her injured side. His eyebrows lifted with surprise, though he didn't make any move to help immediately, Abigail having already gone to retrieve Emily's fallen bag, but he did place his hand onto the handle of his wand once again, ready to retrieve it should the need for magic arise. "okay. Maybe a few ribs." The blonde admitted ruefully, causing Charlie to chuckle softly. "my baby sister Ginny tries to downplay everything that affects her negatively too." He mused softly, watching as Abigail placed the knapsack on the ground and Emily rummage in it for a couple of potions, both of which she downed quickly and seemed to feel better almost immediately. Relieved at the positive results, the redhead released his wand once again, watching as Abby was successfully convinced to go inside after his brothers, and had almost extended the same hand forward to help Emily get to her feet when the which stood up without help, drinking yet another potion. "if you think you'll be all right." Charlie agreed hesitantly, withdrawing his hand before it could be spotted. "if you think you need another minute, I can wait here with you. I don't think they'll have eaten all the sandwiches before we get in there."
