Neville felt bad for causing Ginny so much of a burden...."I'm trying to see it ," he said but before he could get a good picture of it in his head he heard a crack, and as Ginny let go of his hand, she was gone. Neville concentrated on what he remembered about number 12 Grimauld Place, Worn down shingles, crooked stones steps, chimney was falling to one side, windows all closed......
He closed his eyes and apparated with a soft "crack"
Seconds later he felt his bottom crash on the hardness of a dirt and cobblestone street. He hesitantly opened his eyes and found himself staring up at Ginny, who was waiting for him at the steps to the headquarters of The Order. Neville stuck his hand out and Ginny helped him up, "thanks," he said grateful that he didn't mess this up.
