yo!
i know its criminal of me to right this when i have so many left to complete, but i just could not get the story out of my fucking mind!
warning * contains extreme language and sexual content* dont tell me i didnt warn you.
The last specks of darkness disappeared, as the sun slowly rose above the horizon drenching the land with its warmth.
It was a beautiful day, but for Ginny Weasley it was the day she had dreaded the most. as she lay in her small bed watching the sun rise, all she could think about was how every thing would change. I get married today she thinks as she gets up from her bed to stare at the silver lining out side her window. Normally this sight would have been beautiful, but today everything seemed to be twinged with darkness, or maybe it was just her and her dark thoughts.
Ginny did not know what to feel, every witch is happy at her wedding day, but not every witch gets married at sixteen.
She sighs thinking back to her childish dream of marrying Harry Potter, and the silent prayers she had made to meet him. well i got my wish didnt i? she thinks bitterly. she was going to marry Harry Potter today, the boy-who-lived, the chosen one , the Grey Lord as people had come to call him.
Every witch dreamed of marrying Harry Potter, then why was she so sad?. The answer was simple, she did not know him, hell she hadnt even seen him, all she knew about him was the stories she had heard, some horrible some great. During her child hood she had imagined meeting him, and slowly falling in love with him like her parents, instead she had been thrown into this with no warning.
Going down for breakfast, she finds the mood sober, as if on some ones funeral, she sees her mother bursting around the kitchen, cooking and cleaning, like she did when she was nervous or upset. Her father was sitting on the head table looking solemnly out of the window. Bill and Charlie were pouring over some papers, no doubt looking for a way out of the marriage, but ginny knew it was of no use, She had resigned herself to that. She would not have minded the contract so much if it did not take all her freedom away and was not just so..sooo medivial and plain horrible.
Fred and George for once were silent and unsmiling, it was weird seeing them so sober, for as long as she could remember they have always been laughing and joking. Ron was just staring at his breakfast, making no motion of eating it, which spoke volumes, Ron loved food, and ate no matter what.
Ginny took a deep breath, she knew this was not the time to despair not when her family was in such a state. They had all tried to find a way out, to no avail, but she was grateful all the same.
As soon as she entered a hush fell, it was like a ghost had walked into the room, a activity stopped. Mom promptly burst into tears and soon Ginny found herself, wrapped in her arms in a tight hug.
"oh...my baby girl" , she wailed. Ginny patted her on the back trying to counsel her "mom, please, it might work out", mom pulled away snifiling "how can it work out! you are being forced to marry a stranger. and the contract is so..soo" she hiccups.
Ginny gently takes her hand "I know mom, but there is no way out, its either this or the whole family loses their magic and are thrown in askaban, and I wont allow you all to do this for me." mum sniffles "but Ginny..".
Ginny abruptly pull away "mom, I have accepted it, you should too, and mom I am getting married not going to an early grave" ginny says, trying to counsel more herself then mom.
"you might as well be! with such a contract", Bill growls.
Ginny knew this fact the contract takes away all her rights. the last thing she wanted to do was to sign herself over to some stranger, but what choice did she have? instead she tries to lift her family sprit, "we dont even know the guy, he might not be that bad. Dumbledore himself said so",
"not bloody likely",Ron snorts
Charlie leans forward "any person who could write, and agree to such a contract, cannot be a good person"
Ginny felt tears prickling her eyes, and her temper flares. She slamps her hands on the table with such force, that every one jerks bad surprised "dont you think I know that?! I know it bloody hell! but I am trying to be optimistic, trying to hope, so that I dont feel like I am giving my life up, dont you think I had dreams or hopes, I am trying to make you feel better but..you git!", ginny yells, tears falling down her face, she hated it, hated feeling weak especially in front of them.
Angrily wiping her checks "I wish, I had never been born, I wish I had died in that fucking chamber, its my own stupidity that I am in this situation"
"you dont mean that" Bill says.
"oh yeah? try me!, I rue the day harry freaking potter saved me in that chamber" , and with that Ginny runs to her room, unable to stop her tears any longer.
Hours later, Ginny finds herself sitting in front of the head of department of magical contract, twiddling her hands nervously her and her family were waiting for Harry Potter to arrive, Ginny hoped he would never turn up.
The door opened and Professor Dumbledore strode in, his blue robes billowing behind, and the ever present twinkle in his eyes.
dad stood up to greet him "professor I thank you for coming"
"my pleasure Arthur", Dumbledore says shaking his hand. looking around "oh I see harry isnt here yet"
At the mention of Harrys name, every one stiffens "and I hope he dosnt turn up", Bill growls.
"William, " mom yell, but every one could say it was only half hearted.
"I have told you all time and again, I have met Harry on many occasions and inspite of our differences, I can vouch for the fact that he is a good man, and would treat your daughter with the upmost respect", Dumbledore says.
"but the contract is soo..",Bill begins
"I am sure there is a proper explanation for the contract, the harry iI know would never agree to such a thing" Dumbedore says.
No sooner had he finished speaking the floo flared up and a man with dark hair tumbled out "damn I can never get the floo right"
