A/N - This was written for the '30 Words or Less' challenge by MioneWazlib. It's 100 short stories, each containing (you guessed it!) 30 words or less. I'm doing it in five parts, with one character and 20 prompts per chapter.
PART 1 - GINNY
Reality Check
We're back to reality. Voldemort is gone, now we all have to rebuild our lives – without Fred, without Lupin and Tonks, but without a constant sense of doom.
Absolutely Alone
They wanted to leave me in the Room of Requirement during the fight, but did they really think I was going to stay there, absolutely alone ... not knowing? Yeah right.
Prince Charming
He saved me. He saved us all. But I'm the only one who gets to hold his hand, kiss him, tell him he's my Prince Charming. Not that I'm smug.
Virgin
Hermione has told me that the first time hurts a lot, but I'm not afraid. I trust Hermione, but I trust Harry too. He won't want to hurt me.
Good Question
He asked me today. I knew my answer already. I've known since the first day I saw him, when I was ten years old. "Will you marry me?" "Of course!"
Can you Hear Me?
I remember seeing him lying in the Great Hall, still and silent, so unlike him. "Can you hear me, Fred?" I whispered, through my tears. He couldn't.
I'm Telling
I walked in on Ron and Hermione at the Burrow. Ron's face went redder than his hair. "I'm telling Mum," I said, but I was only teasing. Let them celebrate!
Out of Control
Mum has been very brave. She's been trying not to see the Fred shaped hole in our family. But last night I lay awake, and her weeping was uncontrollable.
I Love You
I remember the first time he said those words to me. I was jubilant from a Quidditch victory, and he was jubilant at having me all to himself at last.
Willingness
I was ready and willing to fight. I was only sixteen, but did that really matter? I was a damn sight more mature than some of the older students.
Drunk
Evening. Firewhisky. Me and Harry, alone together. Giggling. Talking late into the night. A chorus of 'Odo the Hero'. Kissing. Kissing.
Disaster
I used to think having a zit was a disaster. Did any of us really know the meaning of the word 'disaster' until Lord Voldemort came into our lives?
Turned Off
It was never really going to work between me and Dean. He was attractive, sure, but no Harry, and anyway, he kept bossing me around. I hate that.
Past, Present, Future
Past: shy, naive Ginny. Present: confident, happy Ginny. Future: Who knows? But I hope the future involves lots of children. I love having a big family.
Dysfunctional
I would never describe the Weasleys as a dysfunctional family. We have our moments, true, but at the end of the day, we love each other.
Men
Michael, Dean, Harry. All very different, all perfect for me at the time (or so I thought). But Harry is the one I'm keeping, thank you very much.
Behind My Back
If Harry ever went behind my back with another woman, he'd find out why my Bat Bogey Hex is so notorious. Luckily for him, I know he never will.
Study Sessions
Hermione is awesome. Seriously. A study session with her is better than two hours with McGonagall, and more fun, too. Apart from Harry, she's my best friend.
Cut It Out
I sometimes wish I could go back over my life and cut out the dark parts, like taking clippings from a newspaper. But we all need a bit of sadness.
Dreamt
Tonight I'll lie awake and dream of my wedding. What will I wear? Will the sun shine? I hope it will. I just wish Fred could be there.
