Love is tragic
Love is bold
You will always do what you are told

Love is hard
Love is strong
You will never say that you were wrong

I dont know when I got bitter
Love is sure better when it's gone
Because you wanted more
More than I could give
More than I could handle
And a life that I can't live

You wanted more
More than I could bare
More than I could offer
And a love that isn't there

Tonic, "You Wanted More"

She had spent two years, two months and sixteen days waiting.

Ginny Weasley sat on the edge of the bed, unsure of why she had waited so long. She had been so sure for so long that Harry Potter had been her destiny, and that if she just waited, one day he would come back to her. Once the world had been saved, they would marry and have children and all would be right with the world.

When Harry decided not to return to Hogwarts and instead started training to be an Auror, Ginny simply smiled and told him she was proud of him. She owled him at least once a week, and their letters had been friendly. Ginny spent her final year at school alone, because she still believed. When Harry sent her an invitation to his graduation, her heart soared, and she knew that this would finally be their chance to be together again.

The day of graduation dawned brightly. Ginny had purchased new dress robes for the occasion and had woken up early to get ready. Her whole family would be attending, not only because Harry was considered like a son to Molly and Arthur, but her brother Ron would also be graduating. Ginny sat between George and Bill, beaming proudly as two of the most important people in her life moved on to the next stage in theirs. They were now duly sworn Aurors.

It seems all of wizarding London had attended the graduation, and the crush of the crowd mad it impossible to move anywhere. Ginny stuck closely to her older brother, Bill, knowing his height would help them navigate the crowd to find Harry or Ron. It seemed that everyone wanted to congratulate the boys who had saved them from He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named and the other young witches and wizards who had fought in the war and now were responsible for keeping them all safe.

She was so intent on finding Harry, that she didn't notice until it was too late she had run into another of the recently graduating Aurors.

"Weasley," a cold, familiar voice said to her.

She looked up, "Malfoy. I guess a congratulations are in order. I never thought I would see the day you would be on the side of good."

He smirked, "War is hell, Weaselette. It changes everyone."

Unsure of what to say to that, Ginny merely nodded and moved along. She finally caught sight of the back of Harry's head. She was just about to call out his name when she noticed he was kissing someone. Her heart fell. A split second later, however, it broke when she realized the person he was kissing was her brother.
