Dean was never the sort of person to hold grudges. Years ago, back in school he and Ginny had dated and it seemed to him that in the blink of an eye after they broke up, she was with Harry. He could have been more hurt about that than he had been, but he was fond of them both and knew where their hearts - as well as his own - lay. So he remained close to them and over the years watched their on-again off-again relationship. Honestly he just wished they'd get it together and settle down. Now of course, they wouldn't get that chance, and the thought of that was, well, depressing. Dean was a bit of a romantic at heart, and that this had turned out this way were terrible.

He told Seamus and Justin where he was going and when he'd be back and headed over to the Burrow. He hadn't been there very often, but he knew the location well enough. Steeling himself for what would probably be a difficult conversation, he announced his presence so she knew he was there. He refused to show or feel pity, but he was damned prepared to be as supportive as he could be.
