I do not own Harry Potter and I dont own any of the characters in it.

Chapter 7: Realizations...

"Wow... So I'm the..." Hermoine, Harry, Ron and Cho nodded as Albert and Ginny looked amazedly at them. "Wow, so you aren't kidding, or joking, or messing with my head, or anything like that?" "Yes, you prat, you are! It's not a joke or--" Hermoine raised her hand and silenced Ron.

"Yeah, you are. Harry also has something to say to you." Albert was very excited and hurriedly said, "Yeah, yeah, sure." Harry breathed in deeply and said, "How would you like to become part of the golden trio? Except it's not exactly a trio if there's four of us, I think we need a new name, even though we didn't even come up with the first one. How about the second generation of the mauraders, the mauraders 2!" "Thanks Harry, I appreciate the offer and thanks I would love to be! But what exactly are the mauraders?"

Ginny looked at Harry then crossed her arms as if she was offended. Ron said, "You sure are a weird bloke, you don't know who the mauraders were?" when he was interrupted by Hermoine saying, "The mauraders were a group consiting of Harry's father, god father, their best friend, and occasionally, Harry's mother. They played pranks, made mischief and all kinds of things while they were in school at Hogwarts. They also uncovered all of the secret passages in Hogwarts while they were there." Albert said,

"In that case, the mauraders 2 we are." Ginny still looked kind of dissapointed and Harry frowned. Ginny couldn't resist and started laughing. Cho smiled and said, "Wow, Ginny, what's so funny?" Ginny covered her mouth and shook her head. After all, Ginny thought Harry was irresistably cute, frowning or smiling.

Author's Note: It's just Ginny that feels that way, not me, I'm straight.

Harry, Ron, Hermoine and Albert, or as they should now be called the mauraders 2, sat talking watched by Ginny and Cho. Ginny sighed and Cho said, "What's wrong Ginny?" Ginny looked at her worried expression, and thought to herself, this wasn't expected.

She always thought as Cho as her rival to get Harry's heart, and knew that she knew Ginny thought like that, so she never expected Cho to try and help her if she was upset. Ginny studdered at first and then said, "Well, I always wanted to be part of... Well part of them. They always go on adventures and do reckless, fun things and i always wanted to go with them, but Harry always wanted me to stay saying it was too dangerous and when i would look into his beautiful green eyes i would just melt, and i would give in..."

By this point, Ginny was hysterical. The mauraders heard her and stopped their conversation to listen to what Ginny was saying. Tears were flowing from her large brown eyes as she leaned into Cho who put her arms around her and said consolingly, "It's ok Ginny, I'm sure there'll be your time, where you can have your own adventure and kick Harry out of it. Okay?" Ginny looked up at Cho and said to her, "But that's not it... I just want to go with him, and spend some time with him. Thank you Cho."

Harry looked at Ginny, tears threatening to spill from his eyes. "Gin..." Harry silently grabbed her by the wrist and Ginny allowed herself to be pulled out of the room. When they were in the hall way, Ginny asks, "What is it, why are you pulling me?"

Harry sighed and put his hand in his pocket and said, "Ginny, I'm sorry that i haven't really had you with me in most of the time i spent around adventuring with Ron and Hermoine. The truth is, it's not that I don't think you could handle it, but we've been through some real pain on our journeys, and if you were hurt, i wouldn't be able to forgive myself because... Ginny, what I'm trying to say is I love you. I really do, and I'd be willing to do anything to spend the rest of my life with you," at this point he got on one knee and continued, "Ginny, I love you with all of my being, and I'm not exactly sure how to do this but," he pulled a small box out of his pocket and continued, "Ginerva Weasley, would you do me the honor of walking down the line with me, of making a new family with me, will you marry me?"

Ginny felt emotion take her away and sweep her off of her feet as she experienced a rush of happiness flood her body so that they came out tears of joy. She smiled a beautiful smile and put her hand through Harry's hair before she found herself in the moment and said, "Harry James Potter, I would love to marry you, to spend the rest of my days on Earth with you, no matter what, by your side forever and for always by your side, where I know I belong. My answer is yes."

"Oh my God I'm so happy for the both of you!" said Hermoine and Mrs.Weasley in unison. They both ran to Harry and Ginny and hugged them so fast that Harry barely had time to slip the engagement ring on Ginny's finger before getting tackled to the ground by Mrs.Weasley and Hermoine. Ginny looked behind the person that tackled her and saw her dad, beaming at her and Harry. Ron even cracked a smile at this wonderful news and Alberto smiled a bright smile that even with his scars looked like they went away.

The only question left was where's Cho. That question was quickly answered as Ginny heard her voice saying, "Leave me some room!" and soon Harry and Ginny were engulfed by the three female's hugs. 'I can't possibly be any happier' both Harry and Ginny were thinking. They both just realized the one they love, loves them back equally. Two questions that haven't been answered yet are where is the rest of the Weasley family and how did this part know to be exactly where they were at exactly that time...
