A/n: My dearest readers,
I'm horrible. I know it's been months. Why? I was in a musical, I got a concussion, I have been studying my arse off pulling a Hermione, and I also have been busy otherwise. I hope you can find it in your hearts to forgive me. Pretty please?
DISCLAIMER: I don't own the world of HP. The only thing I own is Emmett and the Plot.
Song this Chapter: Grown up Christmas List by Kelly Clarkson
Ginny sat on her bed strumming a few chords on her guitar thinking about how life had changed in the past couple of months. Now that Emmett had come into the picture, things had changed for the better, mostly. Ginny loved Emmett. No doubt about it. But there was still a special place in her heart for Harry. But Ginny had grown to accept the fact that Harry was with Cho and probably would be forever.
It was coming around Christmas time and Ginny was looking forward to going home. She missed her other brothers and her parents. Emmett was coming with her this year. It was the first time she was bringing home anyone and she was worried about how her family would react. But as Hermione kept on saying "Emmett's a big boy. He can handle it."
Ginny smiled looking at a picture of her and Emmett that Collin had took a few weeks ago at the lake. Winter coming around caused the lake to freeze over making it perfect for ice skating. Ginny had been showing off her graceful moves when she slipped on the ice and fell. Emmett rushed over to her and wound up falling beside her and they broke out hysterically laughing. When they got up Collin snapped a picture of them mid-kiss.
Christmas. Just the thought of it brought a smile to her face. She thought back to the one time her father had brought her to work with him and he brought her into a muggle department store. There he had her sit on a muggle Father Christmas' lap. She wished for a doll and a tea set. Looking back, Ginny thought her wants from trivial. Now the thing she wanted more than anything was for this war to just end and for life to be normal. Not that it ever truly would be. She started singing a song about how she wished things would be.
She longed for a life that was full of peace and love, where people didn't have to worry about heart break, loss, and disease. A world where people could live in Harmony. She realized how ridiculous it sounded, but what could she do. A girl's heart was full of wishes and dreams, some more possible than others. But along with her wishes for a better world, another wish lay in her heart. A tacit wish, one that she had been trying to deny but it was useless. It was Harry, she wanted him more than anything. She finished playing her guitar, trying to ignore her wish and went to the common room.
"Hey Harry," she said plopping down next to him on a love seat.
"Hey Gin." He said staring into the fire.
"Harry what's wrong?" she asked. She went to touch his shoulder.
"Ginny," he said grabbing her hand. "If I ask you to come somewhere with me and I tell you something, will you promise to never speak of it."
"Harry, what's going on?" she asked nervously.
"Please Ginny; you're the only one I can trust right now."
"Of course Harry. Let's go." Ginny said. Harry got up and squeezed her hand. She followed him. Walking towards the seventh floor, he pulled her into the room of requirement. Suddenly Harry pushed her against a wall.
AN: MWAH HA HA HA HA CLIFFIE I know I'm horrible but I actually know what's happening next and I don't have as much stuff going on in my life. Please review. Seriously you guys keep me going on. I love your reviews.
