1. Victory

Harry's POV

The war was over. Voldemort was defeated.

The silence was agonising. What was I to do first? Find Ron and Hermione? Get together with all of my friends? But before I could do either, the one person I most desperately wanted to see appeared. Ginny Weasley. She ran to me and wrapped her arms around my neck in a tight hug. I wrapped my arms around her waist and hugged her back. She released.

And then everyone crowded. There were screams and yells. But before anyone was up for congratulation, a frightened death eater was noticed trying to escape. Everyone chased after them and left myself, Hermione, the Weasley's and all of the DA behind. Hermione and Ron embraced each other and kissed passionately.

"When did that happen?" whispered Ginny.

"About 2 hours ago!" I replied. We stared at each other before I stepped forward a little. Ginny looked up into my eyes.

"Ginny!" came a distant cry from Dean Thomas. Ginny turned away from me. He ran up to her and hugged her. I watched for ten seconds before I bolted. I didn't know where I was going to go; I just didn't want to be around all those happy people.

Ginny's POV

Harry had done it. He had killed Voldemort. I waited and watched to see what he would do next. But he just stood there. I stepped out from the crowd and met his eyes. I ran to him and wrapped my arms around his neck. He squeezed me back but I soon released. I was lost in admiration for him that I didn't notice many people running off and chasing the remaining death eaters. I looked around at all our remaining friends. Hermione and Ron grabbed each other and kissed fiercely.

"When did that happen?" I asked Harry. "About 2 hours ago!" he replied. I so wanted to just grab him and kiss him the way Hermione did to Ron. We stared at each other before he stepped towards me.

"Ginny!" I turned at the sound of my voice being called by Dean Thomas. He hugged me straight away and I closed my eyes as not to see the expression on Harry's face. I heard footsteps leaving and pushed Dean away.

"I'm sorry Dean. HARRY!" I called after him.
