This chapter skips ahead about half of a year, to the wedding. Okay just to clear things up (mainly because I can't figure out how long it's been) they went back to Hogwarts the September after the battle, then I skipped ahead a year, and now I'm skipping ahead 6 months. Now, without further ado...

Chapter 10: Harry Ginny; Because She Never Gave Up

"I just don't love you anymore Harry," said Ginny coldly.

"But-"

"No. I've fallen for someone else. He's smart, funny, and extremely handsome." She took the ring off of her finger.

"Who?!" asked Harry incredulously.

"Me," said an unfriendly, familiar voice. Draco Malfoy stepped towards Ginny and put his arm around her waist.

"Malfoy?!"

"Yeah, Potter. Ginny and I go way back."

"We're getting married tomorrow!" squealed Ginny.

They both started to laugh. Then their laughs turned high and cold.

"Avada Kedavra!" yelled the cold, high voice.

A blinding green flash of light.

"NOOOOO!"

"HARRY! HARRY! WAKE UP! Oi! Ginny help me out here! He won't wake up!" yelled Ron.

"Ron, you prat! What's going on?!" Harry heard Ginny yell as she rushed into the room.

"He won't wake up. He's been shouting and screaming for ten minutes now, mind you," he said irritably.

"Well I don't hear any screaming anymore," she said, obviously annoyed.

"Well you try and wake him up then!" retorted Ron.

Harry snapped opened his eyes when Ginny suddenly kissed.

"Morning," she said, grinning.

"That's not fair! I obviously couldn't do that to wake him up!"

Ginny kissed Harry on the cheek and left.

"Good... I don't think I would have liked that very much, mate."

"Oh shut it Harry!"

It was only a half an hour until he'd be getting married. He had the slightest feeling he'd forgotten something.

"So are you going to your wedding barefoot?" asked Hermione as she came into Ron's room. She was in the emerald green bridesmaid dress Ginny had picked out with her. Her hair was sleek and shiny again and pulled up into a knot.

"Oh... No," he said as he found his shoes and pulled them on.

"Everything's ready and guests should be getting here soon. Ron come with me and Harry?"

"Yes?"

"We need you to wait in the kitchen."

"Okay."

He followed them downstairs and into the kitchen. He looked outside and saw that everything was set up. Chairs were lined up outside and the place where Ginny and Harry would be wed was decorated extravagantly. The leaves had been bewitched, by no one other than Hermione, to shine an emerald green. Harry could hear Mrs.Weasley running around making last minute fixes and adjustments. He guessed 'a simple wedding is all we want' went right through her ears. Suddenly the air started to fill with loud pop!'s. He saw Luna and her dad appear, Neville with his grandmother, Seamus, and Dean. To his amusement, he saw that Hagrid had flown Buckbeak to the wedding. Soon he heard a great roar behind him and he spun around. Andromeda had just walked out of the fire place. She had Teddy with her, who was almost two years old, and was now capable of walking.

"Harry!" squealed Teddy as he ran (or stumbled) over to Harry. 'Harry' and 'grandma' were a few of the many words Teddy had learned to say. Harry gave Teddy a hug, picked him up, and placed him in his lap.

"Hey! You look very nice," said Harry. Teddy had on the tiniest set of dress robes Harry had ever seen and his hair was changing colors every second.

"He's missed you," said Andromeda.

"Well, I've missed him, too."

"How are things going at home?"

"Oh they're good. A little bit harder now though, with this one being able to run around the house."

"Well any time you need help just let me know, I'd love to take Teddy for a day once and while. Give you a break, you know."

"I'll keep that in mind," she said kindly.

"Andromeda!" cried Molly as she came into the kitchen. "Come, come. I'll show you your seat. Teddy you need to stay with Harry since you're the ring bearer."

"Okay," said Teddy happily.

"Where's juh-juh...jenny?" asked Teddy. He still had trouble with Ginny's name.

"Ginny? I don't know, but you'll see her soon."

"Teddy, the rings," said the man who was wedding them. He was the same man who had done Bill and Fleur's wedding.

Teddy awkwardly walked towards Harry and gave him Ginny's ring. Then he handed Harry's ring to Ginny.

"Harry do you take Ginny to be your wife?" Harry looked at Ginny. She looked beautiful. Her dress was simple and white. There was a dark green ribbon around her waist and her dress had thin straps. It went down to the floor and she was wearing a long veil. Her hair was curled. He placed the ring on her finger.

"I do."

"And Ginny, do you take Harry to be your husband?" A tear rolled down her cheek as she placed the ring on Harry's finger.

"I do."

"I now pronounce you husband and wife, you may kiss the bride."

Harry did. He felt her wrap her arms around his neck and heard George wolf-whistle in the distance. When he looked up, Molly and Hermione were crying, Ron was grinning, and everyone else was positively beaming.

"Harry! Harry!" squealed Teddy as he pulled on Harry's robes. "Is there cake?"

Everyone laughed. Harry picked up Teddy and put him on his shoulders. He put his arm around Ginny's waist.

"Yes, there's going to be cake," he laughed.
