Fall For You, a harry potter fanfic

Song: Fall For You—Secondhand Serenade

Pairing: Harry/Ginny

Set: Number twelve, Grimmauld Place, a year after my previous storyline, "Welcome to the British-Irish Quidditch League"

Yep, it seems that not even Harry and Ginny are immune to the fights that come with being a married couple. I won't put the fight here in this storyline, but for some reason, "Fall For You" by Secondhand Serenade was playing on the radio one day, and I just thought of Harry and Ginny… They must have had some serious battle between them. So let's pick up the plot in progress.

Author's Note: Plot in regular type; lyrics in italics.

"You don't appreciate me, Harry!" Ginny screamed as she Disapparated.

"Ginny—" Harry began, but he cut himself off. Ginny was right, and Harry was wrong. Ginny really was a very good Chaser, but her team, the Holyhead Harpies, had lost the British-Irish Quidditch League Championship to the Caerphilly Catapults, and for some reason, Harry got more than a little irritated about it: He really wanted Ginny to win the Championship the year after he himself had won it for the Chudley Cannons. The argument became a fight and Ginny Disapparated afterward, leaving Harry alone with James and the newborn Albus in number twelve, Grimmauld Place.

The best thing about tonight's that we're not fighting
Could it be that we have been this way before
I know you don't think that I am trying
I know you're wearing thin down to the core

Eventually, Harry could no longer stand the loneliness, and went to Sirius' old bedroom and fell down onto the bed, crying into his pillow. Now that he thought about it all, he was ready, willing, and determined to patch things up with Ginny, and he was ready to do it quick.

But hold your breath
Because tonight will be the night that I will fall for you
Over again
Don't make me change my mind
Or I won't live to see another day
I swear it's true
Because a girl like you is impossible to find
You're impossible to find

Or was he? This was one of those times that he wished he could ask Dumbledore for advice, or Sirius, or Lupin, or James, or Lily… or even Snape… But he couldn't… all of them were dead, and they couldn't help him now… but maybe, just maybe, there was someone who could… Ron, he thought.

This is not what I intended
I always swore to you I'd never fall apart
You always thought that I was stronger
I may have failed
But I have loved you from the start
Oh

In fact, Ron was able to help Harry, but he wasn't the only one: George had also taken up the challenge. Now, armed with newly found confidence and courage, Harry was ready to make amends with Ginny, the only one he truly loved (unless you who read this somehow count Cho Chang, which I'm not).

Ginny had taken refuge in Hogsmeade (specifically the Three Broomsticks), and that was exactly where Harry was heading now. He figured that the Invisibility Cloak would be essential, and so he packed it with him. He gave Kreacher a Sickle to watch the boys while he was away, and Kreacher happily agreed: James was proving to be very entertaining at his age.

Harry Apparated at the Three Broomsticks under the Invisibility Cloak and saw Ginny laughing with Lavender Brown, Parvati and Padma Patil, and Luna Longbottom. He saw her check her watch and heard her exclaim, "Merlin's beard, I must go, I bet poor Harry's worried about me!"

He saw her stand up and approach the exit door as Parvati exclaimed, "Bye, Ginny!"

And then he decided that now was the moment: He pulled off the Invisibility Cloak much too quickly and said, "Hello, Gin."

Ginny screamed and jumped back a few inches, clutched at her heart and said, "Harry! Blimey, you made me jump! What are you doing here?"

"I'm sorry, Gin," said Harry solemnly. "I should never have undermined your talent as a Chaser just because Caerphilly beat Holyhead in the final match."

"Oh, Harry," said Ginny, "I'm sorry I yelled at you, my love."

Then Harry flicked his wand, and all at once, a bunch of flowers emerged from its tip. Ginny gasped, squealed, threw her arms around him and kissed him deeply, lovingly, as Harry returned it with adoration.

So breathe in so deep
Breathe me in
I'm yours to keep
And hold onto your words
Cause talk is cheap
And remember me tonight
When you're asleep

That night, back at number twelve, Grimmauld Place, Harry and Ginny made love like they had never made love before. The result was that both of them were so exhilarated that they completely forgot that the Caerphilly Catapults had won the British-Irish Quidditch League Championship.

"Oh, Harry," Ginny breathed into Harry's ear.

"Oh, Ginny," said Harry softly… "We should argue and fight more often."

Ginny laughed as she kissed Harry and fell asleep.

Because tonight will be the night that I will fall for you
Over again
Don't make me change my mind
Or I won't live to see another day
I swear it's true
Because a girl like you is impossible to find
Tonight will be the night that I will fall for you
Over again
Don't make me change my mind
Or I won't live to see another day
I swear it's true
Because a girl like you is impossible to find
You're impossible to find

THE END
