Chapter 1
The new future
As everyone celebrated the victory over lord Voldemort and his followers, Harry Potter sneaked off to the highest tower of Hogwarts castle. He wished to be alone. He hadn't been able to be alone for a long time.
Not that he hated the company of his best friends, not at all. It was just that, after everything, he just wished to be with only his thoughts. And it was very difficult to be alone if you are the boy who lived, again.
And as he finally reached the highest tower, he found he was not the only one to seek solitude. Ginny Weasley, as beautiful as always, was looking out over the lake and the forbidden forest. She turned as the door opened. Her face had a few cuts and bruises, but she still looked healthy and energetic.
"I'm sorry," Harry muttered as he saw her. He wanted to close the door again, Ginny stopped him.
"Don't be," she whispered, staring into his eyes. "You are always welcome when I am around." She walked into the room and sat down on a trunk, which seemed to be the only thing in the room. She patted the empty space next to her. "Please, sit."
Harry smiled slightly and sat down next to her. As a silence fell between them, they could hear singing from downstairs. Gwamp and Hagrid seemed to out voice them all. Harry and Ginny looked at each other and smiled.
"They were never good singers were they?" Harry said, remembering his times with Hagrid with fondly.
Ginny shook her head. "No, but that's one of the things I love about them."
The silence grew again.
"I saw my parents, Remus and Sirius. It feels weird, but I am sort of happy that I saw them at least once in my life."
Ginny took his hand as the room slowly started to light up by the rising sun. "You're not alone, Harry. You've got me now." She looked into his eyes. "If you'll have me." She almost sounded desperate.
Harry looked into her brown eyes that almost seemed to change colour into the light. "More then anything." He held her hand as he kissed her, squeezing it every so slightly.
The light suddenly seemed to knock them both out, falling backwards over the trunk.
Down on the grounds, the celebrations kept going on. No one seemed to have realised that Harry Potter and Ginny Weasley, both, had just disappeared from the tallest tower in Hogwarts castle. They had disappeared into the past, unable to come back.
