Chapter 2

7 Years Later

She was finally going home to see her family and friends. She couldn't believe it had been 7 years already. She never expected to be gone this long, but one thing had lead to another and next thing she knew she had her dream job of being an Auror, and was dating someone for the last year and a half. She hadn't realized just how much hard work it would be in becoming an Auror, but she was determined. It had taking her 3 long years alone to get through all the training. In the end it was all worth it. Going through all that hard work she would have never thought she would have anytime for any romance. Meeting Ray had been something that had instantly made her training go that much smoother for her. She had made a friend. Someone who had been their for her through all the long days and the lonely nights. She didn't know if anything would truly come of their relationship, but at the moment that was the last thing from her mind. All she knew was that her she was on her way back to her Childhood home with her boyfriend, who was about to meet her family for the first time. She couldn't help her mind from drifting over to the one thing that had made her originally leave those 7 years ago. Remus J. Lupin. He was the love of her life. She couldn't help but hope he would be there to see the woman she had become.

"Maybe he will finally realize what he could have had." Ginny thought. "Hey, are you ok?" Ray asked looking over at Ginny. "Yeah, just a little nervous about seeing everyone after so long." She said. "Don't worry Babe; I'm sure everything will be fine. And I got to say you should be the nervous one, I should be. I'm the one that's meeting your family for the first time. And if I remember correctly you did say you had 6 older brothers." He said with a grin on his face. Ginny had to laugh at that. He could always make her laugh when she truly needed it.

They continued to drive for another 20 minutes before the burrow finally came into view. Ray noticing Ginny fidgeting in her seat grabbed her hand with his squeezing lightly. "It's ok Hun, I'm sure everything will be just fine. And if anything I'll say I'm not feeling good and we can leave early, Deal." He asked. "Deal" Ginny said leaning over and lightly placing a kiss on Ray's Cheek.
