First of I want to explain how this story even started, with me & cat talking about HP & thinking about starting to write something , like an euqal that happened in these 19 years.
This story takes place right were the movie ended.
Harry, Ron and Hermione stayed there for what seemed like hours. All the pain from the last few days would always be there, mostly as a reminder for what they had fought for. LOVE... Dumbledore had always told Harry that the most important thing was love and he could see that so clear now: the love he had for Ginny, the love George had for Fred and the love that Ron had for Hermione. As he looked back to his friends, the ones that have always been there & always will be. The trio just kept looking into the sky, none of them dared to break the just waited & thought about how there life just changed forever. Ron thought about Fred, if his death was painful or if it went really fast. Hermione thought about her parents, would they still be alive if they would have been wizards as well? Should she come back into their life again or should she stay here? The desicion she will fell will affect her entire life forever. Harry ... Harry thought about all the people that died today because of him. Did they really die for a reason? Could he have saved them if he tried?
"Guys, are you coming? Everyone is waiting for you." Neville called out interrupting their thoughts. Harry turned around and smiled at Neville as he said: "Yes... We'll be there in a second." Ron and Hermione walked to Harry. Hermione gave him a hand and he took it. In that moment he knew it wasn't in vain. All those deaths weren't in vain, because they had died for something worth dieing for. A chance for a new world. A new life, a new beginning. "It's all going to be alright, isn't it?" asked Ron. "It's all over, isn't it?". Harry looked at his best friend and saw all the hope in his eyes. The hope of a whole world, the magic world: "Yes, it is. It's all good from now on"
As the trio entered the school they came face to face with the entire Hogwarts Army. Everyone stood in fascination at Ron,Hermione & Harry. Harry wasn't sure what to do, he looked around. Were they happy that this war is over now or mad that they lost so many loved ones? After a couple more seconds of silence George was the first one to applaud & after that everyone joined in. The trio felt how tears start to build in their eyes, a feeling of happiness and peace start to flow all over them and they knew that there would be peace from now the rest of the group tried to fix their home & to take care of the people that were hurt Ron took a walk around the forrest. He missed Fred already. He didn't dare to ask someone how Fred died, he didn't want to know. He just kept walking, tought about all the things that have happened in that school right behind him. The first time he met Harry , the first time he met Hermione,which was just some seconds after.. He remembered it all, even through he wasn't sure if he wanted to .As he kept walking he saw someone sitting on a stone, a girl; "Hermione?" She turned around to look at him as he moved closer to her. "You're shaking." Ron said & touched her cheek slightly."I know, I just .. I wasn't ready to get back yet,you know?" Ron nodded, even through Hermione couldn't see it anymore cause she was looking down trying to hold back the tears."Do you think we could have saved them?" she asked in a whisper after awhile. Ron knew right away who she meant & all he said was :"No." They didn't say anything after that anymore. They just kept staring into the sky, praying for help.
I've been lost so many times. I've lost so many people. I guess it's all over now.I'm sorry... I'm so sorry that I couldn't have helped you. I'm sorry that I can't bring you back. I'm sorry that you had to died. You had to die for all of us to live. You are heros... each single one of you will never be forgotten... Harry walked up to the Gryffindor comum room. All the paintings that had once been in the walls were now all riped out and on the floor. The chairs, the tables everything was spread all over the place. There were no longer stairs to the rooms, Hogwarts had suffered a great loss."Hi... what are you doing up here? Everyone is working downstairs." Harry heard Ginny's voice from behind him. That voice that he missed so much when he was hidden and looking for the Horcruxes."Just looking around... trying to make sense of everything. I'm sorry... I'm just so sorry." he could feel his voice start to tremble, his hands were shaking."Look at me,sorry for what?" Ginny put her hand in his chin and pulled his face up. Her eyes on his, and she smiled. She look right at him and just smiled."Fred is dead, Tonks and Remus are dead... We've lost so many and it's all my fault." "Don't say that!Don't you dare to say that!" Ginny felt tears in her own eyes as well.."Yeah we lost many people, many that i love , but because of you we saved even more." Harry just shooked his head "That's not true & you know it... If i never... If I never went to Hogwards then you all would have been save! Everyone would still be alive." He walked towards the window. "What about me?" Ginny asked in a low whisper, that made Harry turn around... "What about you?" "I would have never met you! & what about Ron,huh? He would still be such a dork without you & Hermione? Your the real first friend she ever had,she grew so much because of you!" Ginny took some steps forward, putting their hands together "You saved us, many of us" She kissed him on the cheek & left the room, not letting him response. Sometimes we need people to show us the right way. To tell us that everything will be alright, that we did the right thing. Harry knew that he had found that in Ginny. He knew that right now she was the most important thing in his life and she would always be.
He ran out the door and followed her, she was already half way down the stairs, going into the great hall. He stopped her and she turned around, in that exact moment he kissed her. All the pain, all the sorrow, all the doubts just just faded away. He felt like that first time, where she told him to close his eyes and just kissed him. All the hope he had felt. And the happiness. It was all coming back. The passion was all there, it had always been and they both knew that it would always be. Ginny put her arms around Harry's neck, trying to prolong the kiss as much as she could.
"Thank you..." Harry whispered as they parted.
"For what?"
"For everything..." Harry replied. He took her arms from his neck, only to take her hand. "Come on... it's a new beginning."
As Harry & Ginny walked down into the hall again, they met Hermione & Ron who just returned from their little walk."Hey,you're okay?" Harry asked Hermione,which eyes were still puffy & red. "Yeah.." Hermione said while she whipped away one last tear. "Yeah, I'm def. better , we're def. better." She said as she looked up at Ron. "Don't just stand there .." the group looked up at the stairs to see Hegret standing there "Come up here & help rebuild the school!" They all smiled alittle at each other & were ready to work. & they did, but not like in a normal, muggle school .. no they took out their wands & used spells, but this didnt mean it didn't take long.
