Okay this is just a little one shot that came into my mind today while making dinner. It is not very good, but this got the idea out of my mind so that I can concentrate on the novel length fic I am working on.

"Harry!"
"Harry, can you hear me?" called a voice from far away in Harry's head. Just then, he returned to consciousness and groaned aloud. Wow, his head really hurt.
"Harry!" the voice called again.
"What!" he said not opening his eyes yet trying to place the female voice.
"I can't believe you're here, you aren't supposed to be here Harry. Not for a long time," the woman choked out through sobs.
Again, without opening his eyes, Harry groaned. "Where is here, and why does my head hurt? The last thing I remember was the battle."
"Well, yes…that is where you came here from…the battle. You see you are…"
"Dead," he finished for her with dread as he recalled the last moments before here. He had been standing on the battlefield with Voldemort; there were so many dead people all around him and it was finally down to the two of them. After intense dueling Voldemort had finally gotten Harry's wand when Harry had looked over and seen the cold dead eyes of Remus Lupin a couple yards away. He had been stunned when a glance later; he saw the dead body of Hermione being covered by Ron's lifeless form to try to keep her safe. The realization that his favorite people were gone was too much and when he and Voldemort both sent the killing curse at each other, Harry with a new wand, the curse didn't meet, but continued towards there target. Harry swallowed as a lump rose in his throat. "Did I get him? Did I get the fucking bastard?"
"Yes Harry," said the female voice, "you got him, and he got you."
"I don't care if he got me. As long I got him too." Harry finally cracked his eye open just a bit to see long red hair. "Ginny?"
"No Harry, but she is here too. She is safe."
"Mum?"
"Yeah Harry, it's me. Your dad is with Remus, but he will be back soon."
Harry finally fully opened his eyes. "Where is everyone else who died…Hermione and Ron?"
"I believe they are being mothered by Molly much to everyone's enjoyment," Lily said with a chuckle and a smile.
"So where is here?"
"The elysian fields. The final resting place for the souls of the good which's and wizards of the world."
"Wow. I thought that was just a myth."
"No son," Lily said with a smile. "You can meet all your relatives and you can see all your friends. Dad and I are here. So are Sirius, Remus, the Weasley's, Tonks, Dumbledore, Minerva and your family."
"I…wow. You know…I think being here is better then being down there if I get all that and don't have to deal with evil ever again." just then a knock was heard at the door.
"Come in," called Lily. Upon the door opening, they both saw Ginny standing there with a smile on her face.
"It's good to see you Harry," Ginny said with a shy smile. Before Harry could reply Ginny rushed to the bed he was sitting up on and jumped into his arms. "I'm glad that we are together. I love you."
"I love you too," Harry replied. Looking up at his mum, he smiled. "Is there any way to get married here?"
"Of course," smiled Lily.
"Good," Harry replied pulling a chain out from underneath his robes. On it was a diamond ring with emeralds and two matching gold bands. "Gin, I was going to ask you after the battle, if we both made it through. Will you marry me?" he slipped the engagement ring on her finger.
"Yeah, Harry…I'll marry you," she said with a smile and a kiss.
The after life was not going to be so bad for Harry. He had all the things that were good in his life, and none of the bad stuff.
