Chapter 7: The Ring

A/N: hope you enjoy

The next day harry felt much happier, he'd decided to buy Ginny's ring when he and the Weasley's next went to Diagon Alley. He walked down to breakfast and took his usual place on the table, next to Ginny and held her hand under the table. At ten, three owls landed on the windowsill although, one of them carried two letters. Harry opened his letter, it read:

Harry,

Thank you for replying so quickly. You Mr. Weasley and Miss Granger will all be taking 7th year classes with the 7th years, although, you will be acting as 8th years and will have your own dormitory. You will find you book lists enclosed.

Minerva McGonagall, Head Mistress of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry

"Oooh that means we'll have to go to Diagon. Mum, you don't have to come with us, were old enough to go on our own. How about we go today?" Ginny asked.

"Sure, I need to get something." Harry said.

"What?" Ginny questioned him

"Not telling, you'll just have to find out wont you." They all chorused a bye to Mrs. Weasley and apparated to The Leaky Cauldron.

"Hi Tom, just passing through," and they went in to the back alley. As they entered Diagon Alley Harry told them he would join them in half an hour outside Flourish and Blotts. He headed off in the opposite direction to the jewelry shop to make sure Ginny wasn't watching him. When he saw that they had gone off, he turned around and headed off to the jewelry shop. He entered the shop….

"Harry Potter!!!! I can't believe you're in my shop. You'll be getting something for Miss Weasley I suspect?"

"Eh, yeah, could I have a look at your engagement rings please?"

"Certainly, that girl of yours is lucky," she said pulling out a tray of goblin-made rings. Harry looked over them, there was one with four stones in it, there was one with stones all around it but harry settled for a single stone diamond ring that shone beautifully.

"That'll be one thousand Galleons please, I knocked off a thousand as a thank you for saving us all," she said.

"Um, thanks, ill just go to Gringotts to get that money," he said walking out of the door while checking that no one saw him. He made his way to Gringotts.

When he returned feeling slightly nauseous, the woman had already put the ring in a red box and had it on the counter waiting for harry. He handed over the money and left the shop quickly, the half hour was almost up. He got to Flourish and Blotts and started his Hogwarts shopping with the others. Harry felt much better knowing that he was going to propose to Ginny, he just hoped that she would say yes.
