There seems to be an unwritten law that going on honeymoons is like joining the Masons ... secret and mysterious, and the fewer questions asked the less embarrassing for everybody.

Name: Marriage Law
Disclaimer: Nothing is mine. I'm pretty sure the idea isn't even mine.
Summary: The Ministry is now enforcing a Marriage Law. Anyone 15 and over is now given a spouse. Set after OoTP. Sirius lived. It'll be explained.
Notes: Harry defeated Voldemort in the fifth book instead of the seventh in this story. It is a trend in my stories. I need Sirius and Fred and Lupin and Tonks alive. It's just my thing. Ok, so about the whole being married when in different houses thing. They are able to meet up with each other in designated areas of the castle, after certain hours. That's how Harry and Cho are working.
Pairing: (Main) Sirius/Ginny (Secondary) Ron/Hermione, Harry/Cho, Remus/Tonks


Ginny and Sirius spent a week away on their honeymoon. They disapeered to a small Muggle town in Northern Ireland. The first night that they had been married had been spent in the Room of Requirement, which had been offered up by Dumbledore. And there had been nothing that Ginny and Sirius had ever experienced that had been more nerve racking and awkward than that. They must have spent twenty minutes sitting on the bed in silence both before and after they had done what married couples are supposed to do. But, after the awkwardness of that first time, everything had come natural.

Now it was the day that Ginny was supposed to report back to school. She arrived around midnight at the castle, McGonagall escorting her to the Common Room. As Ginny entered, setting down her purse, which had been bewitched to hold a weeks worth of clothes, she spotted the Golden Trio asleep in front of the fire. Ginny walked over, smiling. She looked down at Harry curled up in the chair and Hermione and Ron snuggling on the couch. She gently tapped Ron on the shoulder.

"Ron, I'm back." she said softly.

Ron's eyes fluttered open slowly. He stretched, waking Hermione. She pushed herself up into a sitting position, rubbed her eyes, and then proceeded to jump off the couch and run around to hug Ginny.

"Oh, you're back. We missed you!" Hermione squealed.

Harry stirred in his chair, stretching before waking up. He looked over, fixing his glasses. "Hey mum."

"Don't call me that, Harry. It's weird." Ginny said, walking around the couch and sitting down ontop of Ron.

"You're squishing me." Ron said weakly.

"Are you calling me fat?" Ginny asked.

Ron pushed her off and sat up, blocking her slap. He smiled at his little sister and nodded slowly, blocking another slap that came his way.

"Oh will you two stop? You're acting childish." Hermione said flatly. She turned herself so that she was looking at Ginny and smiled. "So, how was the honeymoon?"

Both Harry and Ron groaned at the talk of Ginny and Sirius's honeymoon.

"We don't want to hear this." Harry stated.

"Ever." Ron added.

Hermione rolled her eyes. "I wasn't asking her about that part. We'll talk about that in private later on, right Ginny?"

Ginny winked. "Of course we will. Actually the honeymoon was pretty nice. Beautiful little town and the most amazing weather I've ever been in. Not too hot in the daytime and not too cold at night. And there was this little river that ran right outside of the cottage that we were renting."

"That actually sounds pleasant." Harry said.

"Well, what were you expecting? Rain and torture devices?" Ginny asked.

Harry shrugged and then laughed when he looked at Ron's expression. "You ok?" he asked.

Ron nodded. "Relieved actually. Doesn't sound like there was that much...S-E-X." he whispered the last part.

"You know, I do have the ability to spell. And, I was there for a week Ron. I didn't walk around all day and sleep all night." Ginny was grinning when she finished talking.

"Enough! Goodnight! I'm going to bed!" Ron said standing up. He walked over and gave Hermione a kiss before going up to the boys dormitory. Even though Hogwarts was couple friendly, they still had seperate rooms.

"I'm going to follow him just to make sure he doesn't attempt suicide. Goodnight Hermione. Goodnight mum." Harry smiled as he walked after Ron.

Ginny rolled her eyes and looked over at Hermione, who was smiling.

"Now," Hermione said. "Tell me everything."

A/N: I know that it has been forever since I updated and I'm very sorry for that. I've been rather busy lately and I've had terrible writers block concerning everything Harry Potter related. I'm going to read some other Harry Potter fanfics in a little while, to get the creative juices flowing. Thank you for being so patient with me and I hope you enjoyed the chapter, even though it was short. :)
