A Magical Tale of Love

Chapter 7

Harry didn't respond to her owl, he didn't know how to. He didn't understand it at all. He thought she had feelings for him. Certainly it seemed that way. But maybe he just misinterpreted her feelings. He decided to wait a few days, then try again.

For the next two weeks, Harry sent her owls almost every day, and never received any response. Then he started to send her flowers, always with a note apologising for whatever. But still no word from her. Then he decided to show up at the Burrow. He wanted to speak to her face-to-face. But Molly apologized to him saying that Ginny was not feeling well and that she can't see him at this time.

Harry was frantic. He couldn't sleep, he couldn't concentrate on his work, he just didn't know what to do. He finally came up with a do-or-die solution. He would give it one last shot. For two days, he thought and wrote. Finally satisfied, he borrowed a friends broom and Apparated to the Burrow. It was getting dark out, so he flew around the structure until he saw a room with the light on. And then he saw her, sitting on the side of her bed crying. He flew to the window and landed on the roof with a bang. Ginny heard the noise, and looked out the window. There was bloody Harry Potter kneeling on her roof singing a song.

"GINNY WEASLEY, GINNY WEASLEY, I ADORE YOU.

YOUR SO MUCH LIKE MY PERFECT GIRL.

GINNY WEASLEY, GINNY WEASLEY, I DO LOVE YOU.

PLEASE COME OUT AND SAY THAT YOU ARE MINE."

Ginny couldn't believe her ears, or her eyes. Harry Bloody Potter is kneeling on my roof, singing to me, she said to herself as the tears flowed freely down her cheeks. 'Ok, I give up. If he is willing to make a fool of himself like this, then how can I resist.'

She opened her window and pointed down to the ground. "Meet me outside, now," she said tearfully as she slammed the window shut and ran down the stairs. She burst out the front door just as Harry landed on the grass. She ran to him and jumped into his arms saying over and over again that she was sorry.

She sniffled as she held him tightly to her body.

"I love you, you silly prat. I love you so much. And I'm so sorry."

"Apologies accepted. But I think that we should talk about it."

"Yea, ok. Come on inside while I get dressed, then lets go to your flat, ok."

"Er, yea, ok. But your mother…"

"She'll be thrilled Harry. Come on."

They walked into the kitchen to find her parents laughing loudly. Ginny ran up the stairs to her room shouting to Harry, "I'll be right back."

Her parents were still chuckling at them.

"That was quite a performance Harry," Molly teased him.

"Isn't that the Muggle song about the Mona Lisa?" Arthur asked.

"Yea, I guess. Something like that." Harry replied embarrassingly.

"Well, I thought it was a very nice thing to do Harry," joked Molly. "But you need to work on your vocal cords a bit."

Harry laughed as his face turned a nice shade of scarlet.

"So Harry, how have you been? We've missed you lately."

"I know. I can relate to missing someone."

Molly stood and gave him a great 'Molly-hug'. Well Harry, I hope that you and Ginny can work things out between yourselves. I think your little song thing did the trick. It really moved her."

Ginny came bounding down the stairs carrying a small over-night bag. She took Harry's arm and pulled him to the door.

"Bye mum, dad. See you tomorrow," she announced with a huge smile as she dragged him out the door.

"I love you Harry Potter, and I've missed you so."

"I know. And I've missed you terribly also. Let's go."

They side-along Apparated to Harry's flat, landing with a plop in his sitting room.

"So Gin…."

"Not now Harry," she interrupted him. "I love you, and I accept that you really do love me. We can talk later Harry. Right now I want to be with you. I don't want to be a virgin any longer Harry. I want to feel you inside me. I want us to consummate our relationship right now Harry. I want to feel your love, and I want you to believe how much I love you."

Ginny used the contraceptive charms, much to Harry's surprise. He hadn't even given that a thought. Actually, he didn't even know anything about them. Thank you Merlin, and thank you Gin, he said silently.

They made passionate love with each other, several times. It was the most loving experience either had ever known. They finally fell asleep in each other's arms, exhausted but exceedingly happy.

They finally awoke about midnight, being very hungry. But with nothing in his frig to eat, they just talked.

"Ok Gin, it's time. Talk to me, tell me what I did wrong."

"It wasn't you Harry, it was me. I'm completely at fault here. When I realized how much I loved you, I panicked. I just couldn't imagine that you would fall in love with me; that you would choose to be with me when you could have any girl in the wizarding world. It didn't make any sense to me Harry."

"Gin, I…."

"No Harry, let me finish. You don't know what it's like to be a tiny, insignificant person like me."

"Gin, wait. Your wrong about that. Growing up like I did, I know exactly what that is like. Let me tell you about my early life, after my parents were killed. Maybe then you will understand me better."

"I was only about a year old when Voldemort killed my parents. He tried to kill me, but as you know, he failed. Anyway, I was taken to my aunt and uncle's home. My aunt Petunia is my mother's sister. Dumbledore thought that they would properly raise me, but he was wrong. They hated me, and treated me in the worst way. By the time Dumbledore finally took me from them my self esteem was nonexistent. I felt like the lowest form of life possible."

"That did all change after my godfather took over responsibility for me. But I will never forget those early years. So Gin, I do know what it is like to feel insignificant."

"I'm sorry Harry, I didn't know."

"It's ok Gin. The point is, you are NOT an insignificant person. Far from it actually. You are very smart, feisty, spirited, lively, full of energy, gutsy. You are everything I could want in a life's partner. I saw that right from the start. And the more I was with you, the more I realized it. I think that's why I fell in love with you. You were everything I ever wanted."

"You have to believe that Gin, because it's true. I chose you because you were what I wanted, not any other girl in our world or any other world. I love you Gin, and I want to spend the rest of my life with you. Only you."

Ginny's tears were streaming down her face as she embraced him.

"Thank you Harry. And I am so sorry that I doubted you, that I doubted myself. I totally believe you, and I am proud that you chose me."

"No gin. I didn't just choose you. We chose each other. Remember that."
