So In Love

Ginny was surprised, but responded to the kiss, with her heart full of passion. The feeling that ran through her body was the best feeling in the she had ever felt in her lifetime. She was in love with Harry Potter and she couldn't deny it. Harry felt the same way. He was in love with Ginny Weasley. He was afraid that if he ever let go of her, he would lose her.

The kiss ended a few minutes later. There were stares from all over the room but neither of them noticed. They were in their own little world to even care. Right then and there Harry looked into Ginny's eyes and he asked her to be his girlfriend. Her eyes glowed with happiness as she accepted his offer.

At this point, Julia returned from the bathroom. Harry saw the anxious look on his girlfriend's face, as she obviously wanted to tell Julia every detail of what just occurred in the last five minutes. He got up, and told Ginny he would talk to her at dinner, gave her a quick kiss, and exited the pub, into the fresh spring air.

By the time everyone arrived back to Hogwarts, Harry had told Ron and Hermione the whole story. They were both thrilled for him and Ginny, and congratulated him. As the three headed to dinner, they saw Ginny waiting for them, with Julia and Neville. Harry took Ginny's hand, and they entered the Great Hall, and they were no doubt, the happiest couple in the castle.

A smile was perched on her face, as Jessica read the last page of her mother's journal. She set it aside and thought of what had just happened. Even though she had been reading each and every entry, she felt as though she was right there with her parents, each and every step of the way. It was as if she watched it all happen. She figured there was some sort of spell put on it, to make the reader more than just see the words written on the parchment- the reader saw it all, too.

She got off the couch and went back to the box. The next thing Jessica saw was a big wad of parchment. It was folded a lot and she could barely unfold it. By the time she did, she looked at it, expecting to see writing or something on it. But she didn't. Because it was blank.

Jessica immediately knew what she was holding: The Marauder's Map. She had heard all about the map on countless occasions throughout her life. Her father and her Uncle Remus would tell thousands of stories, about how Uncle Remus, Sirius Black, and her grandfather, made it, along with their back stabbing friend, Peter Pettigrew. How Uncle Fred and Uncle George gave to her father when he was 13, and how he would use it to sneak out of his dorm at night, while under his invisibility cloak, so he wouldn't get caught. She knew the Map only showed Hogwarts and she wondered if it would work here, even though she was home, and not at school.

She grabbed the Map, ran out of the Living Room, and into the foyer, up the stairs, and finally stopping when she reached her bedroom. She grabbed her wand from her bedside table and sat on her bed. She knew the phrase that would unlock the Map. She opened her mouth to begin the spell, but that's when she heard it. A familiar voice scream, "JESSICA!"
