"We should." Harry replied to Ginny; "Hold on." he said and quickly scrawled:
Dad,
Meet us at the Burrow; we have something to tell you. No it isn't about us having no protection.
~ Harry.
His writing was slightly scratchy on the old piece of parchment; scratchy yet readable. He sent it with Errol and just hoped it would go to the right person as soon as possible. He laughed as the
owl gave a wonky start but apparently gained balance as he pumped his wings and flew through the air. Ginny sniggered and cuddled up to Harry as the two waited for his father.
"I love you so much." she said as she gazed into his bright green eyes; her eyes quickly tore from Harry's to the direction of the door, "hey James!" she smiled.
Harry turned his head towards the door, "Dad?" What are you doing here? Wasn't expecting you." he said as he caught sight of his dad and grinned.
James sniggered at this. Ginny looked as though she were trying not to laugh, "Hi Ginny; hey, shithead." James grinned at Harry, and punched him lightly in the arm, playfully.
Harry laughed and nudged his dad in return, looked to Ginny, and smiled, "do you think we should invite Hermione as well? I mean... she helped me through last night and all." She paused
apparently in thought. "...Or just keep it between us three for now?"
"Yeah we should..." Ginny replied. Harry sensed some uncertainty but she'd said he should so he scrawled her invite and sent it with Errol. "Harry you know how you know my baby stories,
right?" Ginny asked out of the blue.
Harry shifted awkwardly in his seat and punched his dad lightly in the arm; just for something to do, "baby stories?" he said awkwardly, "I don't think I do... I mean I may have heard them but
I'm not sure."
James sat down with a wide grin on his face. Ginny rolled her eyes at Harry "you heard... what dad my dad told you... or Ron... so now I get to know your baby stories." She laughed and lightly
kissed his cheek. She looked at James, "do tell, James." she grinned.
Harry kissed Ginny's cheek lightly back, "you already know part of mine." Harry said with a wink. "Dad... please tell." He laughed; as tempted as he was to fight it, he knew it would come out
eventually because James loved to embarrass him like this.
James looked rather amused by this, "Your baby stories?" he questioned.
Harry laughed, "No dad, the stories of when I was a pumpkin... of course baby stories." he said sarcastically with a grin.
Ginny sniggered; "yup!" she said and sat in Harry's lap. She smiled as Harry snaked his arms around her waist and held her grinning at his dad. "Come on James!" Ginny begged.
"Please dad!" Harry grinned, in knowledge this was about to become awkward... but interesting.
Ginny scrawled a piece of parchment, when Harry saw Errol fly off with it, he tilted his head questioningly. "I invited Ron." she told him simply.
Harry grinned, "Brilliant," just when he thought the awkwardness couldn't grow much more... it had.
Ginny looked at him, "he just found out." she said with a somewhat cheeky grin on her face.
James looked as though he was in deep thought about the baby stories, his face lit up when he heard Ron was on his way, "fine..." he said lengthening it, as though he wasn't sure he actually
wanted to but they'd sucked him in.
"Hi Ron!" Ginny said suddenly, Harry and James both looked towards the door.
"Ginny told me to come." He laughed, "Hey Gin, ello 'Arry! 'Ello James." he added with a wave to each of them and a grin towards Harry.
"Hi Ron." she said with a slight wave and beamed, "I'M SO HAPPY!" she yelled suddenly, jumping up and down on Harry's lap, clapping her hands.
Harry and James couldn't help but almost laugh at the random outburst. Ron laughed, "So... someone explain?"
Ginny was first to pipe up, "Harry and I are going out!" she grinned. Harry couldn't help but laugh; he loved it when Ginny showed her happiness; though he knew it wasn't hard when he was
around.
Harry looked at Ron and smiled, "well apparently Ginny has loved me right from when I saved her in the Chamber of Secrets and now we're going out, does this answer enough?" he grinned.
Ginny shot Harry a look that told him she was questioning his details, "AND NOW!" she announced dramatically, "he! His dad," she declared, pointing over to James "is gonna tell us Harry's baby
stories."
Ron gave the two an awkward glance and looked at Harry, "err... congrats mate." He smiled. "I'm happy for you two."
