Chapter One – The Argument

"Why did you marry me then Harry?" Ginny shouted in a rage. They had been on rough footing for days, ever since Ginny had admitted to having an affair with another man. Their marriage had been suffering for a long time.

"Because I felt as if I had to" He admitted. Harry didn't say it to be cruel, after so many years together she deserved to know the truth from him. It took two people to destroy a relationship and despite her cheating it was entirely Ginny at fault. "I proposed to you after the war was over because I thought that was what was expected of me at the time. Just like everything else I did back then."

"Did you ever love me or was that just as much of a lie as our marriage?" She had every right to be angry, she had three children with this man and now he was claiming to never have had loved her. It was a devastating blow.

"I was happy" Harry said truthfully, picking his words with extreme caution. He knew how powerful the red head could be. He didn't want to ignite that fury in her.

"That's all, you were happy? Is that what I should tell James, Albus and Lily when you leave? You didn't love us but you were happy." Her voice was raised and even in their large family home Harry worried that their argument would wake their children.

"You're the one who had the affair Ginny, not me. At least I respected you enough to not sleep around." Harry's tone was bitter as he said this, fed up of being treated like the villain. He had not been the one to confess to an affair and then expect for all to be forgiven. Harry actually felt relieved, it gave the perfect grounds for a divorce. He no longer had to pretend.

"You haven't touched me since Lily was born. Eleven years is a long time to be ignored, we don't even share a bed anymore. I need to feel loved, even wanted harry. I don't want to be a burden to you or worse an obligation you can't get rid of because of our children."

Harry sighed, tired of arguing. Everything Ginny said was the truth. He couldn't share her bed any longer but not for the reason she thought. The nightmares of war and death had begun to creep into his subconscious. After years of nothing the placid calm and contentment of the life he had built for himself had been broken when he had felt the faint prickle in his scar two months previously. The pain had only increased and this worried him greatly but these were not worries that he could share with his wife.

"I think we should get a divorce" Harry said calmly and quietly. "I'm happy to wait until September when Lily starts at Hogwarts but I think that it's for the best."

"We're not getting a divorce. I'm not going back to being poor, putting our children in hand me down robes. I won't do it, you can't make me" Ginny said in defiance.

"You were fucking another man that alone gives me the grounds to ask for a divorce as for the rest do you really think that I'd let that happen to my children? Besides I'm going to ask for full custody so that they'll remain in this house and have some consistency. I think you can agree that that is what's best for them."

"You're kicking me out and keeping the children? You really think you'll get away with this?" Ginny raged, her blood boiling.

"I bought this house, I pay for everything, how could you have expected anything else?" Harry truly wasn't trying to be cold, he would never let her go with nothing. He may not have loved her but she was still a friend. They had been through more than most couples could have handled but the façade of happy families had gone on for far too long.

Ginny had never felt so angry in her life. She was thirty eight and had three children and now she was being so easily cast aside, labelled as an obligation. It felt as if a blade had pierced her heart it hurt so badly. She wanted Harry gone, to forget about the pain and the anger. She hated him for the heartless words pouring from him. Anger and magic bubbled within her, uncontrollable and unstoppable as a scream of anguish ripped through the air from her throat.

And Harry was gone.

Ginny had made him go, where she didn't know. She collapsed to the floor sobbing, unsure of what she had done. He was gone and it was because of her. Gathering herself together and trying not to panic she fire called her brother Ron. He knew about the difficulties in Harry and Ginny's relationship and she needed to talk to someone.

Ron arrived within minutes, Hermione staying behind with their two children. "Ginny, what's wrong?" He asked, taking in his sisters dishevelled appearance, her eyes red from crying and the distraught look on her face.

"Harry and I were arguing" She began, Ron remained quiet, listening. "He asked me for a divorce, said he'd only married me because he thought that was what he was supposed to do. It made me so angry" She said and a horrified look crossed her brother's face.

"What happened, what did you do Ginny?" He demanded. Ron knew his friend would never had hurt his sister and he knew all too well the power she could wield and the fiery temper behind it. A lethal combination.

"I don't know. I just wanted him to leave, wanted to forget everything and then he was just gone. I don't know what happened" She said desperately.

"We have to find him" Ron said with a sigh. "I know he hasn't told you but he may be in more danger than you realise."

"What do you mean?" Ginny asked in a panic. No matter how angry she was with her husband she would never have wished him harm.

"The nightmares have been coming back more and more frequently the last few months and his scar has been hurting again."

"He never told me anything about that" She said desperately.

"He didn't want to worry you and the children. He didn't know what it could mean, neither of us did and we didn't want to worry over something that could mean nothing." Ron told her as they headed up the stairs. "Start waking the children, they can stay with Hermione while we go looking for Harry." Ginny nodded and went to do as her brother asked, unsure how she was going to explain to her children what had happened to their father.

Harry blinked, trying to focus himself but finding his head was all in a spin. His eyes darted around, looking for something, anything he could recognise but in vain. He seemed to be in an unfamiliar garden of nothing but rose bushes. He was clothed at least but bare foot but he had no recollection of how he had come to be here. In fact he had no memory of who he was at all.
