A/N: This was just a quick drabble for Hogwarts online Prompt of the day "Stay With Me".
Slab of Granite
The gravel crunched under Ginny's sneakers as she wandered to the back of the yard behind the large Oak tree, Fred's favourite. Ginny stood by a large slab of granite left alone in the large graveyard. It had been a while since she had visited it, in fact it was so long she wasn't even sure if it was this year, all she new is it was not for the purpose she was here today. Ginny sat down in front of the gravestone and took in a deep breath.
"I miss you," she started staring blankly as the words dissolved into one long line of white streaks. She sat her hands in her lap and took in another deep breath. "It is so weird not having you around. Mum and Dad barely talk and it is just not the same. I moved out just recently, to live with Sirius. We were engaged, but something has happened. It is not working out any more, we fight all the time and barely see each other because of work," she said softly tears falling down her face. "I don't know what to do Fred. I use to be able to come to you and George but George doesn't do much these days except run the shop. I am so confused." Ginny pulled her legs up to her face and cried into her knees.
The wind started to pick up and swept under Ginny's legs drying her tears and cooling her face only for fresh hot tears to creep back down. Suddenly she felt a warm presence next to her. Someone sat down bumping their body against her side. Ginny looked up to see the rugged slightly sad face of Sirius Black next to her.
"Luna told me you were coming here," he said answering the unspoken question that lingered in the air. Ginny nodded and looked back at the gravestone wiping away tears with her sleeve.
"Are you coming home?" Sirius asked. It was soft and sweet and Ginny knew he meant well but she didn't want to move, she felt glued to the spiky grass she sat on.
"I want to, just not yet," she said resting her head back into her knees.
"Take as much time as you need," he said kissing the top of her head and making a move to get up. Ginny quickly grabbed his hand and pulled him back. He looked confused as Ginny struggled to say the words that bubbled to the surface.
"Stay with me," she said softly as more tears threatened to fall down her cheeks. Sirius smiled and wrapped his arms around Ginny pulling her close.
"Forever," he whispered and they sat in the cold spiky grass until night had completely fallen over the graveyard.
