(Default Chapter)

To everyone who read Long Black Veil the first time, to everyone who didn't:

This is the only fanfic I have actually ever completed- probably because it's so short- and many people asked me to write a sequel. I can't write a sequel (I tried, and didn't like it) so I am now re-writing Long Black Veil to give others the opportunity to read it. It's got more romance, more insight, mistakes are fixed, and the chapters are longer!

Also, I never posted the very last chapter of the story on so all of those wondering how the story actually ended can now find out!

This takes place in Harry's seventh and final year at Hogwarts, and it is about a secret relationship between Ginny and Harry, and everything they go through in just one year.

Sirius Black is back from beyond the Veil, and Harry's sixth year was pretty uneventful. Fudge got sacked, the death eaters came back into action, and Voldemort started preparing for the largest battle between wizards.

I hope you all enjoy this story as much I enjoyed writing it- both times.

Ps. I don't own any characters, places, object, etc, that are found in the Harry Potter series.

Pps. My inspiration for this story came from my all-time favourite song, entitled "Long Black Veil" if you want to hear it; Dave Matthews does a great version of it! (The lyrics will be posted in the fic.)
