Sorry its been sooo long. Life happens.
Harry
"Gin…. I have finally figured out what and who makes me happy. That we have to make the most out of the time we have. I won't push you but I want you to know that I am serious. I love you so much it hurts sometimes and I want a future with you." He kissed her cheek and got up. He needed to clear his head and he was cold from getting drenched in the rain. He was about to start up the stairs when she spoke again.
"I want you too Harry," She paused. She looked like she was trying to find the right words. "I want a life with you too. I just don't know how to get over the pain."
"I'll help you. We can help each other." He stared into her brown eyes, praying she wouldn't change her mind. He needed her so much. He watched as she slowly got up from the table and walked to him. She put her hand over his heart and stared at his chest, "Don't let this stop beating again until I say it's ok." She looked up into his eyes. "ok?"
"Ok, I promise I'll try." She kissed him then. All the love she could pour into it and he felt it beating back some of the shadows the hovered around him.
She pulled back and grabbed his hand, leading him upstairs. "Gin? Where are you taking me?"
"To my room. Hermione won't be back for a few more hours and you look like you haven't slept in days." Leading him into her room she pulled him in and said, " Could you do a quick drying spell? I' m not 17 yet." As soon as he did she pulled him into bed and lay with her head on his chest. Soon they were both asleep holding on to one another. They didn't dream of the horrors they had seen or endured but of their future together.
Hermione
I woke just as the sun was rising and started slowly getting out of Ron's arms. He looked peaceful as she kissed him on the lips before quietly moving out the door. She noticed that Harry's bed had been empty, but that was normal lately since he didn't sleep much. She made to Ginny's room without making a sound and went in. She nearly screamed in surprise when she saw Harry pulling his shirt back on and getting out of Ginny's bed.
Harry about jumped 5 feet high and glared at her. " what are doing back so early?" he whispered.
"I always come back at this time to make sure Molly doesn't notice me," she whispered back, "what are you doing in her bed?" she pointed at Ginny's still sleeping form.
"We talked last night and she didn't want to be alone. She brought me up here."
"Well you should get moving or you'll have to explain to Molly"
"Ok." He bent down and kissed Ginny's cheek and whispered something she couldn't hear. " see you soon." Harry whispered to her as he left the room.
