Disclaimer- In my world I own Harry Potter... POP Crap I'm back in reality JK Rowling owns Harry Potter again. Why can't I get my way on this?
Harry woke up in his warm four-poster bed. He rolled over, checked the watch that he had received as a gift on his 17th birthday and saw that it was 3 A.M. He looked over towards Ron's bed, but he was already gone. Harry got out of bed and put the Elder wand safely in his robe pocket. He picked up Draco's wand and was trying to decide what to do with it, finally deciding that the right thing to do was to give it back to Malfoy. Then, he grabbed his old, faithful wand that he received on his 11th birthday and put it in his back pocket. Harry chuckled slightly at the thought of what Mad-eye Moody said in his 5th year – "Don't put your wand there, boy! What if it ignited? Better wizards than you have lost buttocks, you know!
Harry walked down from the boy's dormitory to the Common room, where the Weasleys and Hermione were sitting looking solemn. He noticed Ron and Hermione were sitting together holding hands. The events of last night came back in a flash: Voldemort was dead, Remus, Tonks, Fred, and Colin were all dead. He fell down beside Ginny and took her hand. She looked like she would rather be anywhere else but this sad place, where she couldn't escape her feelings and had to be strong for her mum and dad, but more importantly George. George's eyes were bloodshot from crying over the loss of his best friend and closest brother. He looked as though he hadn't slept in weeks.
Ginny put her head on Harry's shoulder and he wrapped his arm around her waist.
"Would you like to go for a walk?" asked Harry. Ginny nodded and slowly rose, wiping her eyes.
Ginny sobbed, "It is just so awful, Fred is de-"
"Don't say that," interjected Harry. "He's in a better place, with Remus, Tonks, Sirius, my parents, Dumbledore. I know it's not fair, but they died fighting to make all of our lives better, and we made sure that they did not die in vain. They're in a better place now where Voldemort can't ever hurt them. Voldemort can't hurt us either, Gin. The war is finally over!" said Harry with a grin.
"Why did you pretend you were dead Harry?" asked Ginny.
"It was all part of the plan… Ok, fine, I made it up as I went, but it's over now," said Harry encouragingly.
"Made it up… that's what Fred always did!" Ginny sobbed.
"Oh, I'm sorry, Gin."
"It's ok… I'll just have to get used to the fact that I'm never going to see him again…"
"Aw Gin, don't think like that. You can see him in yourself and your family; heck, just look at George – he's Fred's twin," said Harry, smiling.
"True," Ginny laughed.
They both stopped talking. Now outside, they strolled across the grounds hand in hand.
Harry finally ended the silence. "I'm sorry I scared you yesterday."
Ginny remained quiet but thought to herself, 'I'm never going to forget those two minutes when I thought the love of my life was dead."
"Harry?"
"Huh?"
"Where are we going?"
"Well, I have to do two things before we do anything or go anywhere else."
"Ok. I trust you."
With that, Harry turned around to face Hogwarts and spoke the incantation, "Reparo Hogwarts."
Suddenly Hogwarts was as good as new. Everyone rushed out of Hogwarts to see what had happened. Professor McGonagall walked down to the courtyard and saw Harry standing in the middle of the cheering crowd. Professor McGonagall smiled to herself. "He was always good at that," she thought as she walked back into the castle to eat some breakfast.
Harry whispered to Ginny, "Can you distract them please?"
Ginny looked puzzled but obliged and shouted, "Hey everyone, look at that!" pointing to the lake.
"What? Where?" they asked.
"The Giant Squid was just there!"
"Ohhhhh."
Meanwhile Harry pulled his Invisibility cloak over himself, grabbed Ginny's hand and pulled her away from the crowd. Ginny slid the cloak over her, and they hurried to Dumbledore's tomb. When they arrived they were pleasantly surprised to see Ron and Hermione.
Harry whispered, "Shhh!" to Ginny, and she nodded. Harry crept behind Hermione and gave her a big hug.
Hermione screamed, "Harry!!"
Ginny pulled the cloak off of Harry but kept herself concealed. The three friends were all laughing as Ginny crept up behind Ron hugged him as well. Ron screamed, "Bloody hell!" as Ginny revealed herself. The four of them resumed laughing as Harry and Ginny yelled, "Gotcha!"
"Yah, I'll say," Ron replied.
"Well Ron, you agreed with that, do you agree with this?" asked Ginny.
"With what?" questioned Ron, looking from Ginny to Harry, but the look on Harry's face plainly said, "No idea."
For an answer Ginny ran to Harry and kissed him. Harry kissed her back, thinking "Finally."
"Oi, do you mind?" Ron started to say, but at that point Hermione ran over and started kissing him. This immediately shut Ron up.
A few minutes later both couples broke apart, grinning at each other.
Harry finally spoke. "Okay, umm… I guess it's time…" Ron and Hermione looked at him knowingly, but Ginny was evidently confused.
"It's for the best, Harry," said Hermione.
"I know." Harry turned around slowly and opened Dumbledore's tomb. He placed the Elder Wand in Dumbledore's hands and started to cry as he saw the crooked nose with the half-moon spectacles on it. Ginny put her arm around Harry as he cried. Harry muttered something about being okay, but Ginny wouldn't let him go. After several minutes, Harry closed the tomb and the four of them walked back towards Hogwarts.
