"George stop those fireworks,"Mrs. Weasley yells. This was what greeted Harry Potter as he apparated to the Burrow for the second anniversary of the second wizarding war. George was the one who set off the fireworks. Harry walked inside and immediately smelled the food Mrs. Weasley and Fleur were cooking in the kitchen. Almost immediately after, Ron and Hermione came running up to him and tackled in a hug.
"Guys, I can't breathe." Harry says and they immediately jump off of him.
"Well, we can't have the man who took down Voldy-shorts die from being hugged to death," a voice said from behind his two best friends. He looked behind them and saw a beaming George. He was probably that happy because he got out of a scolding from Molly, He thought. Harry walked into the kitchen where most of the Weasley family were talking. He spotted Ginny in the crowd of people talking to Charlie.
"Ginny's been thinking of going to Romania for a year. Charlie's been trying to talk her out of it." Ron said, as if sensing his thoughts.
"Why would she want to go to Romania?" Harry questioned.
"I dunno, she just jumped up at dinner one day saying 'I'm going to go to Romania.' I think she's gone bonkers, but mum thinks she's just lonely." Ron said.
"Why would she be lonely?" Harry asked.
"I dunno! I still think she's gone bonkers? Why would she be lonely?" Ron exclaimed. Harry was deep in thought by now. Why would she be lonely? I should go talk to her. No, I shouldn't. What would I say? 'Hello, I just got told you are lonely? Are you going bonkers?' No. Harry you are going to go talk to her. Why I have to talk to the girl I've fancied since fifth year is beyond me, though.
"I'm going to go talk to her." Harry said and walked away from Ron. You've faced Voldemort and you're scared of an eighteen year old girl. It's not just any girl, it's Ginny, the girl you've fancied for years. By this time he was about five steps away from Ginny. She still hasn't noticed you, you could always walk away without her knowing you were there. No, I will talk to Ginny and I will tell her I've fancied her for years. "Hey Ginny," he said.
"Hi Harry," she said sheepishly, while tucking a strand of hair behind her ear.
"How have you been? I haven't seen much of you," he asks.
"I'm fine, but really you work as an Auror while I work for the department of mysteries, it's not like we get to see each other often," she said with a frown.
"I'm still surprised they let you work there considering what happened in your fourth year," Harry said with a smirk.
Ginny laughed and replied, "I know, I still don't know how that happened."
"Listen Ginny, I want to ask you something." He said with a serious tone.
"What is it Harry?" She asked nervously.
"Are you really going to Romania?" He asked.
Ginny gave a huff and said, "Not you too! My whole family's been nagging me about it. Yes I'm going to Romania."
"I want to go with you." Harry said with a nervous tone to his voice.
Ginny sputtered then finally came up with an answer. "Sure Harry. You can come with me."
