She wore a dress with cherries on it
Goin somewhere where she'd be wanted
A town this small all they do is talk

Ginny climbed into her seat. It had taken awhile for her to figure out how exactly one paid for a muggle bus, but all things considered she had done fine. She was now on her way out. Away from the gossip, the speculation, the horrible interviews. Questions were asked, Observations made.


No wedding ring chipped fingernail polish
She always wished that she could go to college
But some dreams fade
They just slip away

She remembered back when she had dreamed of her future. Oh, the things she had wanted to be! First an auror, a medi-witch, a banker… The list had just grown longer with every passing year. Her teachers, they assured her she had the potential and that NOTHING could keep her from those careers. How wrong they were.


She started to show
A few months ago
And she had to go
And that's how she wound up

On the backseat of a greyhound bus
Head on down with the windows up
Staring at the rest of her life

She never thought this would be the place
Where she would find her saving grace
But she fell in love she fell in love
On the backseat of a greyhound bus

A tear slipped down her face as she put up the window and settled into her seat.

She looked down at the bulge in her stomach and instantly, she felt love. None of the opportunities lost or the words said could affect the love she had for his child.  Here was her future, her life… her love.

And if she had to give up her future to nurture her baby's future, then that's what she would do. But she wouldn't let someone make her feel ashamed of something created from love… even if the love hadn't been mutual. She knew when she told Harry he wasn't ready for another responsibility… It hadn't taken away the hurt of his rejection, but it had lessened the sting as she mulled over it on the bus.

She would do things the muggle way. Find a shelter for unwed mothers…something. As long as she could have her baby and give it the love she had for its father.

She smiled as she felt her baby kick and move within her then looked out of the tiny bus window.

The moon was full
The stars where smiling
God has a funny sense of timing
The baby came on the interstate

She had known something like this would happen she said as she informed the bus driver of her contractions. She was in pain and yet, it was a beautiful thing.


Somewhere between
Jackson and Memphis
She finally found what she had been missin'
She cried and laughed
While the red lights flashed

She would finally meet the life she had helped create. The being that deserved her love and would eventually return it.


Sweet baby girl
She looked into
The face of the new
The face of a brand new world

It was a beautiful baby girl. Ginny cried tears of joy as she held her sweet girl in her arms. As she looked into her baby's eyes and saw those of the baby's father, her heart swelled. Even without Harry, life was still good. It was beautiful even if she was…

On the backseat of a greyhound bus
Heart so full that it could bust
Staring at the rest of her life
She never thought this would be the place
Where she would find her saving grace
But she fell in love she fell in love
On the backseat of a greyhound bus

"oh my sweet baby girl," she crooned as she held the tiny fists and counted toes.
She found a brand new world

On the backseat of a greyhound bus
Heart so full that it could bust
Staring at the rest of her life
She never thought this would be the place
Where she would find her saving grace
But she fell in love she fell in love
On the backseat of a greyhound bus

It surprised her to hear her name called and see Harry coming towards her. More tears fell as he looked into the face of his daughter and held the mother of his child. After the medi-witch he had brought along discreetly checked her out, Harry flew her back to his flat.

She wore a dress with cherries on it
Going somewhere where she'd be wanted…
