Hey everybody!! This was my 1st fanfic! It was originally posted on cosforums under the pen name rainbow_emo. I thought I'd post it here because there is a lot more to the story but got left out due to content. I think it's okay but let me know what u think. Reviews are my favorite gifts!!!

DISCLAIMER:-: I am not the amazingly talented J.K. Rowling! Therefore I do not own Harry Potter or any of his friends. This story is from my imagination and purely for the entertainment of myself and friends.

Chapter 1: Goodbye

Bill and Fluer's wedding was absolutely beautiful. The reception had lasted well into the evening. The air was full of love, laughter, and happiness, but as they say, all good things must eventually end.

Harry began climbing the stairs to the room he was sharing with Ron. When he passed Ginny's room he noticed the door cracked open he leaned close and could hear talking. Harry was about to knock when he heard crying. Confused and curious he leaned in closer to hear what was going on.

"Ginny, it's okay. Stop crying" he heard.

'Ginny's crying!' Harry thought 'geez now what did i do?'
He couldn't believe he had made her cry, 'wait your getting ahead of yourself mate. There's no way she's crying over you. It's been a whole month.' he said to himself, before sitting on the stairs to listen more.

"Hermione, I'm sorry I just can't help it. It's really just been a really glorious day and well I just can't help but think.. what if.. you know. What if I never get a chance to experience that kind of love? What if I never get married? What if I.. he ..." Ginny said before bursting into tears again.

Hermione looked at Ginny in disbelief

"Ginny don't think like that. Everything is going to be fine! It will all work out I promise."

Outside Harry gave a sigh of relief. Ginny wasn't crying about him, she was crying about her future. He smiled to himself, stood up and continued up to Ron's room for bed.

…..:::::::::::…..

"What if when this is all over he won't want me?" Ginny whispered into Hermione's shoulder.

"Ginny" Hermione sighed. "Harry love's you. There is no doubt in my mind that he would even think twice about being with you. Patience just has to be your friend for the time being."

"Are you sure?" she asked tentatively pulling away from Hermione and wiping her tears away.

"Positive" Hermione smiled.

Ginny took a deep breath and nodded her head before giving Hermione a small smile and turning to curl up into her blankets. Although she didn't see it, Hermione returned the smile sadly before walking to her own bed.

……::::::::::::::::::::……………..

The next morning when Ginny awoke she discovered Hedwig perched on her bedpost. Hedwig had three scrolls tied to her leg. Ginny gave the elegant owl a confusing smile then reached for the first scroll.

Ginny,
So sorry we didn't have the chance to say goodbye. Harry thought it would be best if we allowed everyone to sleep in. We hope to only be gone a few months. Harry has an idea on what to do; you see we've recently acquired the knowledge that Voldemort has these trinkets that he has turned into Horcurxes. Destroy the trinkets, destroy Voldemort. First we have to find the other hidden Horcruxes. I still can not believe Voldemort split his soul it's completely mental. I'm so nervous Ginny. I really hope everthing goes well. Anyway I must be going, I have other's to write to before we leave. Take care, I'll miss you.

Love you like a sister,
Hermione

Ginny could feel the tears slowly rolling down her cheeks as she reached for the second scroll.

My Darling little sister!
I know I know it sounds funny coming from me right? Right well as you probably know when you go down for breakfast this morning you won't see my smiling face. I bet your thinking that's a good thing. But hey I am allowed to dream that you will be depressed right. Look it's going to be a while until I see you again so I feel I should say something important. Don't go getting yourself into any trouble! I won't be there to bail you out! I am going to miss you so much. Please take care of mum for me you know how she can get. OH! Since they have decided to reopen Hogwarts I want you going back to school! No excuses and I'm not there to argue so u have to listen to me! ha! Ginny you need to make something of yourself and finish your education. While we are gone I'll have a talk with Harry. Hermione told me about last night and she's right you know. He just has a lot on his mind right now and is just looking to protect you. He'll smarten up you'll see. I have to go now.

I love you, Stay safe.
Ron

Ginny burst out in tears.

Ron never told her he loved her. 'I can't believe I'm getting all emotional because my idiotic brother told me he loved me' she thought to herself.

After taking a few deep breaths Ginny grabbed the last scroll. Knowing exactly who it was from.

Gin,
Could you please watch Hedwig for me. She'll be a bit of a give away out here. Thanks. Oh, and I left a box on your nightstand it's rather important to me, Please keep it safe.

Thanks,
Harry

"THAT'S IT," she screamed at the letter. "THAT'S ALL HE WROTE JUST WATCH HIS STUPID BIRD AND KEEP THIS DUMB BOX SAFE?!"

Ginny couldn't believe what she had just read. No goodbye, nothing. She felt her heart snap in half. Ginny lay back in her bed and cried for hours thinking about the months to come.
