A/N: So I am sitting here, on my computer, reading fanfics about Harry Potter after the Deathly Hallows, realizing that there are so many stories out there about his life afterwards, but none really meet my expectations. (No offense, I love the stories that people have written, but I have my own fairytale inside my head that I feel like I should write down) I have decided to write my own version of those Nineteen years before the war. I just got home from a trip to Disney World with my marching band, and loved every minute of it. Harry Potter world was like living in a fairytale. AMAZING! So I now have a story brewing in my head that I am itching to write down. P.S. thank you for all of those who just read that whole paragraph. I love you just for reading it. Now for the story! It starts at the end of the movie because thats where I thought my story would fit in the best.
Harry, Ron, and Hermione walked back into the castle, bracing themselves for the sadness to hit them when they walked in. When they opened the doors into the Great Hall, they found the Weasley family circled around Fred, Tonks, and Lupin. Somewhere there was a radio, playing sweet music softly throughout the Hall. Harry caught Ginny's eye, giving her a look that told her to talk to him later. Harry could barely look into the faces of his deceased friends, for he was the reason why they died.
Hermione wrapped a reassuring arm around Harry. "You need to wrap your mind around the fact that you are not the reason why these people died tonight. They died for their freedom. For their family's freedom. Not because you made them fight. She took hold of Harry's hands, and started to dance with him just like they did when Ron left them. Then Harry realized that O' Children, the song that they were listening to when they danced last time was the song playing on the radio.
Harry guided Hermione back to the Weasleys, and started to dance with Mrs. Weasley. Soon, everyone in the hall was dancing along with them. GInny found her way into Harry's arms, and he whispered to her, "Meet me tonight, in my room. I will explain everything." and secretly placed a kiss on her forehead.
The song stopped, and people slowly went back to their original places. Soon it was time to retire for the night. Harry excused himself from the group, and Hermione and Ron joined him on the way into the Gryffindor common room. All three went straight to bed. When Harry and Ron were changing into their pajamas, Harry asked Ron, "Are you two finally a thing now?" as he gestured to the girls dormitory.
"I guess you could say that. We haven't really discussed it yet, with the war and all." Ron said, getting in bed.
"Well, goodnight." Harry said sleepily.
"Mum," Ginny said, touching her mother's shoulder gently. "I am going to go up to bed now. I will see you in the morning."
"Goodnight Ginny, I hope you will sleep a long time. This war has taken a toll on all of us." Mrs. Weasley said, planting a kiss on her hair. Ginny walked quickly to the common room, only to be stopped by the Fat Lady congratulating her and letting her in. She raced upstairs into the boys' dormitory and crept quietly into Ron and Harry's old room, where she hoped she would find him. She did, but he was fast asleep. Realizing how tires she was, she kissed Harry softly on his lips and tiptoed her way into her room in the girls' dormitory and fell fast asleep on her bed.
And thats a wrap! I know thats a short chapter, I just felt like that was a good place to stop. I will keep on writing, so I hope you enjoy! love, GG
