A/N Hi! I'm back with another story. This might stay a one-shot unless a lot of people want it to continue on. Enjoy!

Warning: Not betaed

Disclaimer: I don't own anything!

I sat at one of the long tables and played with my food not paying attention what was going on around me. All I could think about was Harry and it broke my heart into a million pieces. Would he take me back? Does he still love me? These questions were swarming around in my mind and became muddled.

"Hey," Ron's dull voice jerked me from my very important thoughts about Harry. "Ginny it's your turn to check on Harry."

We, Hermione, Ron and I, had been checking on Harry every few hours ever since he had been asleep twenty-four hours to make sure he was still alive. We weren't sure what injuries he acquired. Plus mum began to fret about how him sleeping to long could be hazardous and make him stay up for hours.

"Okay." I mumbled and pulled my self up off the bench.

As I sauntered up the stairs a thought popped into my head. Harry still seemed to love me on his birthday so he should take me back, right? I pondered over this until I reached Gryffindor Tower. I had more important things to think about right now.

"Harry." I breathed as I entered the guys dormitories and saw him lying unmoving.

He looked so calm and content. I haven't seen him like then since, well since we dated. It was quite sad actually. He has always had the weight of the world on his shoulders and now it had been removed. He probably felt lost now that he didn't have to constantly face Voldemort but then again he could start a new life. Possibly with me and my family.

I began to look around since I am required to stand here for a few minutes just incase he wakes up while one of us is in here with him. I noticed that the room looked like it had no lasting damage. I think this is the one part of the castle that hasn't been touched at all.

"Ginny." I heard Harry's beautiful voice crack through the silence.

I snapped my head down to look at the man I loved. He was awake and alive finally after thirty six hours. Finally I could talk to him and take in his every feature since I h

"Harry your awake." I tried to conceal the excitement in my voice because in truth I had mixed feelings at the moment.

I felt anger start to bubble up underneath my skin because the noble prat was allegedly dead at one time. I was also secretly thrilled to have him alive so maybe he would take me back and help me through the aftermath. What if he didn't take me back? I mustn't think like that because of that kiss on his birthday

"Ginny I'm so sorry about what happened. I didn't mean for anyone to die and I had to die." He looked guilty and depressed.

I felt my anger subside and was replaced with shame knowing that I was going to chew him out. I felt compelled to comfort and tell him that it wasn't his fault that he shouldn't be grief-stricken over everyone. They would have wanted him to be happy and laugh about life especially Fred, his dad and Sirius.

"Harry it's not your fault but," My voice was soft then it became stern, " you will explain everything to me."

"I promise but will you still take me back?" He asked, his eyes having that wondering look in them.

"Yes." I squealed. I

How could I not take him back? He was what kept me going last year, knowing I would see him again. He was the frosting to my cake. I felt incomplete without him. He was the missing person in my perfect picture of my life.

I walked over a sat next to him on the poster bed. It felt good just to be at Harry's side again. I leaned and situated my head on his shoulder. It seemed as if the world was normal. I felt whole for a second then it hit me. It was not his normal scent!

I wrinkled my nose. "No offense but you reek!"

"Sorry taking a shower hasn't exactly been on the top of my list." He chuckled.

"I know but still, how do expect me to hug you without me crinkling my nose?" I giggled.

It sounded foreign, as if it wasn't my laugh. It had been so long since I truly laughed most of the time I faked it and nobody knew the difference. I guess being around Harry is so natural it's like breathing.

"Okay maybe I should take the hint and go have a shower." He got up and gathered his things.

"Good. I'll see you down in the great hall." I got up left my head spinning wildly at what just happened.

I felt on like I was on cloud nine. I felt as if I just awoke from coma. Love is my addiction and Harry is the drug I will forever use.

Hermione POV

Ginny got up left looking spaced out and lost. I understood considering she hadn't seen Harry in about a year. She had only seen him when we returned to Hogwarts after that it was when he was supposedly dead. It had to take it's toll on her especially with losing, … Fred.

As I looked around I observed that most people had sustained many scars and had this haunted look etched on their faces. I felt the same way all of these people looked. I knew George would be the worst off. I felt sorry for him and thought about how hard it was going to be excepting everything. Kind of like is Ginny going to except Harry back?

"Ron what happens if Harry is awake? I mean how do you think she will react?"

"She will probably start screaming at him and start casting random curses at him."

"So you don't think she will take him back easily?" I asked appalled.

"Nope." he said popping the "p".

How could he think Ginny wouldn't take Harry back? I mean if you really paid attention you could tell she was out of it. Then again it is Ron, the one person who lacks tact, subtleness, and the ability to be able to understand others feelings.

"Why? I know she was sad and everything but I thought she understood some what." I was utterly confused.

"Well have you seen her temper?" He said looking at me like I had just spoken a different language.

"No I haven't really noticed." I told him sarcasm lacing my voice but apparently he failed to hear.

"Well Harry's gonna be bloody lucky if she forgives him."

"I guess." I wasn't going to argue with him not right after everything that's happened.

I glanced around at the Weasleys. They all had different degrees of pain etched on their faces. From Mrs. Weasley and Fred who looked melancholy to Bill and Fleur who looked a little bit depressed. I knew exactly how they felt.

"Ron? How's George?" I whispered.

"I'm not sure. Dad said he's lost at the moment. He doesn't not how to cope."

"Oh." I figured that much out myself.

"Yeah but we will be their to help him through it ." He turned and smiled at me.

"Yeah." I said as I curled into his side.

We sat in silence content to be with each other. It was like heaven smack in the middle of all of this misery. Ron was my heaven, my safe place . He was my missing puzzle piece and I fit perfectly into my side.

I suddenly had this thought. "Ron I think Harry is awake."

"Why?" He asked shocked.

"Well Ginny has been gone longer this time then she has before." I whispered.

"She probably took a long way back here or started to talk to someone. I seriously doubt he woke up. We would have heard screams."

"Okay if you believe what you want." I told him haughtily.

"Okay so maybe Harry's awake but don't you think she might curse him?"

"No I don't." I snapped,.

That was the end of that conversation. Now all I can do is wait for Ginny. I hope she returns soon so I can find out what happened.

"Hermione!" I heard someone call.

It was Ginny standing next to what was left of the oak doors. She looked exultant and had this ecstasy radiating off her. She was like a ball of sunshine slowly starting to shine through this gloom and despair.

She began to sprint towards me as is she had the most exciting thing to tell me. I was right and Ron was wrong!

"Hermione Harry's awake and he asked if I would take him back. I thought about and said yes!" She rushed in a whisper.

"Ginny that's great! Does anyone else know?" I asked hurriedly.

"No you're the only one but soon everyone's going to know." She smiled mischievously.

"Let me guess you are going to make a public display of your love for Harry."

"Not exactly. I mean it's going to take time before we can actually do stuff. We're going have to get through every else first." She frowned slightly at this.

Ginny's radiant mood chased the darkness away from me . It was one small step closer to over coming the grief and loss.

"What's Harry doing now?"

"Oh, he's taking a shower and then he's going to come down." She seemed to perk up at

the end. "He's going to explain everything when he comes down.

"Good. So, he's alright? No major scars?" I was worried he was injured far worse than anyone else.

"Not that I know of. He appeared to be sore but…" She trailed off stunned.

I whipped my head around and found everyone in shock. Of course Harry had come down and everyone just had to be in shock.

"Harry." Ginny said as she ran towards him.

It was a bittersweet moment. They weren't like they used to be but there was something there between them as they embraced. This didn't go unnoticed by the rest of the people in the Great Hall.

Ginny leaned over and whispered something into Harry's ear and left through the oak doors with a lively Harry trailing behind.

"Since when have my sister and Harry been buddies?" Bill asked looking like he might tear off after them.

"Bill they dated and besides I don't think the entire wizard population would be happy if you killed their savior," I said trying to prevent some major explosion from one of the Weasley brothers.

"Yeah but that doesn't mean I have to be ecstatic about it." He muttered.

"Beel you should be 'appy for Ginny. She won't go zrough this grief alone. 'Arry will be by her side. Can't you see zey need each ozzer?" Fleur was defending them.

"Okay." He said no more on that subject matter.

Ron had watched the whole exchange. I was about to make him eat his words.

"Ron did year any screaming? Did you hear curses fly?" I asked snobbishly.

His ears turned red and he looked away. 'Serves him right', I thought. He should really pay attention more to his surroundings and people.

"No I didn't." His ears turned redder then his hair if that was possible.

"Did you see how Ginny ran up to Harry?" I couldn't but smirk.

"Yes." He sighed grudgingly. "I know I was wrong!"

"Oh so you admit it?" I asked shocked. This was too funny.

"Yes! Now let's talk about something else." He rushed out.

My thoughts began to wonder to Harry and Ginny. I figured Harry would come clean and tell her everything. More than likely the 'Chosen One' would we be off the market and into a redhead's loving arms faster than you can say wizard. Unless of course Ginny decides to play hard to get and make him beg.

Please review it means a lot!
