"Can you believe it, Harry?" Ginny Weasley asked her boyfriend, excitedly. "Our first Christmas together!" She beamed, leaning over to hug him, her long red hair swinging.

Harry looked around the living room at Grimmauld Place, he and Ginny had been living there together for about six months, and let out a sigh of contentment. Ron had always said that Ginny was crazy about Christmas, but even the craziest of wizards (cough, Sirius, cough) would agree that dressing Kreacher up like one of Santa's elves and making him sing Christmas carols was going too far. On the other hand, the tree was gorgeous, sweet-smelling candles illuminated the house and you couldn't go anywhere without running into tinsel. Ron was going to go nuts when he saw the bathroom.

Harry hugged Ginny close. "It's perfect, Gin." He placed a kiss on her nose.

Ginny grinned and pulled him into the kitchen. They had some baking to do before the Weasley family Christmas Eve get together that night.

Harry and Ginny strolled lazily through the snowy park. The crescent moon hung above them, and the stars seemed especially bright against the dark backdrop of the sky. Icicles hung like diamonds off the trees, and their breath fogged dreamily in front of them.

Harry stopped and spun so that he was planted right in front of Ginny. "I want to give you your big Christmas present now."

Ginny smiled. "Okay," she agreed. Over the past month she had dropped hints about a necklace she had seen while shopping, and she hoped for all the world that Harry had gotten it for her.

"Ginny, you know I love you, right?" Ginny was confused, but she nodded. Harry knelt, placing one knee in the snow, and opening a black box. A small gold ring with a sparkling diamond was settled in its interior. "This Christmas, will you give me the gift of being my wife?"

Ginny tackled him, sending them both flying into the snow. "Of course," she was crying tears of joy. Harry slid the ring on her finger as they kissed.

"Best Christmas ever," they agreed.

I don't own Harry Potter, hope y'all like it enough to review!
