Iron Man.

The 11th of August had arrived. Ginny Weasley rolled out of bed and wiped the sleep from her eyes. She was 17. She could use magic outside of school. Today they could visit Hogsmeade too, where she would use magic for every little thing. She showered, dressed and went downstairs. Admittedly she was a little disappointed. There was no surprise party when she got downstairs.

"Happy birthday gorgeous." Harry crept up behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist.

"It is now." she whispered, leaning back as he placed his head on her shoulder. He held out a small box in front of her.

"Go on, open it." She did.

"Harry! Its beautiful!" He had bought her a necklace. It was small, and hung from a silver chain. Two broomsticks crossed at the bottom, above them sat a deep blue stone. Tanzanite, Ginny thought. Above the stone, her name was written in delicate silver spirals. She carefully took it out of the box, "help me put it on." He reached to the back of her neck and joined the tiny metal clasps together. Today was going to be perfect.

OoOoOoOoO

Harry led Ginny down the path to Hogsmeade. They first visited the new Weasley's Wizard Wheezes, to see George. He was smiling and happy towards all of his customers, but it was an illusion Harry could see right through. George's eyes were dark and had lost their mischievous glint, his face was sunken in, and he had lost a fair bit of weight. Harry didn't comment, in case he upset him. George would have to overcome the grief in his own way.

"He doesn't look good." Ginny whispered.

"I know, but I don't think there's much we can do." Harry replied. Ginny nodded solemnly, she understood what George was going through.

Next they entered the Three Broomsticks. Neville and Luna were waiting for them, and best of all, Harry had managed to convince Bill Weasley to make the trip. Ginny immediately threw herself into her arms. "Bill! What are you doing here?"

"I received an owl from this man over here," he shook Harry's hand, "besides, I wouldn't want to miss your 17th birthday!" Having Bill there had really made Ginny's day, Harry never saw her smile drop for a second. Other people started arriving too, Quidditch players, Hagrid showed up and presented Ginny with some of his home baking, which Harry doubted she would eat. George came in, with a large armful of Weasley's Wizard Wheezes products. Professor Slughorn presented Ginny with an autographed photo of Gwenog Jones, Ginny's favourite Quidditch player. This earned him a fierce hug and a huge smile.

The party was soon in full swing, everyone was having a good time. Harry watched looked on as Ginny used her wand to cut up her food and refill her glass, she loved the novelty of using magic outside of school. Madame Rosmerta closed the Three Broomsticks, and joined in the party too. Music was playing, butterbeer was flowing, then Harry gave Madame Rosmerta a nod and she stopped the music. Everyone looked around to see why the music had stopped, Harry stepped up to explain.

"Sorry to stop the party everyone, but I think its time to bring out the cake!" Cheers went around the room. Madame Rosmerta wheeled it out from the back room.

OoOoOoOoO

Cake, was a poor description of the thing that took up the centre of the room. Honeydukes had outdone themselves. The cake consisted of three layers of sponge, one vanilla flavoured, one chocolate and one made of red velvet, which Harry had never tried, but it sounded delicious. It was iced in the Gryffindor colours, and had a pair of small enchanted broomsticks flying around it. Sparklers fired from the top, and miniature fireworks, donated by George, lit up the room and spelled out 'Happy Birthday Ginny!'

"Harry!" Ginny screamed as she threw her arms around him, "you did all this for me?"

"Well, Honeydukes did," Harry replied, "but I have my own surprises too."

"Theres more?" Ginny looked as though she were about to cry. She gripped him tightly before giving him a kiss on the cheek.

"There is," Harry smiled, "but first we have cake to eat."

OoOoOoOoO

Harry was pleased. The party had gone well. Ginny walked arm in arm with him, and lay her head on his shoulder. "Now the plan was," Harry started, "to finish off the day with a trip to Madame Puddifoot's .."

"Very funny Harry," Ginny laughed, "I think Honeydukes is a better idea, and I do want to thank them for that cake." The pair turned and walked back towards Honeydukes, Harry noticed a lot of students staring at them. Honestly, were there not more interesting things than a couple on a date?

OoOoOoOoO

"Thank you for today Harry, I couldn't have wished for a better birthday." Ginny lay sleepily in Harry's lap. He sat gazing at the clock, which confused her, until he spoke again.

"I have one more surprise for you, come on!" Ginny was excited by the prospect, and intrigued when he threw his invisibility cloak over the pair of them. Ginny was guided out of the Common Room, and up towards the Astronomy Tower.

"Harry, why are we-"

"Shh." He cut her off, and pressed a finger against her lips. He guided her over to the railing, and took off the cloak. "Just watch, and enjoy." Harry sent green sparks from the tip of his wand, which confused Ginny further. Until two minutes later.

From the edge of the Forbidden Forest, Ginny could see trails of fire shooting into the sky. When one exploded, she realised what Harry had done. "A firework display?" Harry nodded and smiled. Ginny kissed him on the cheek, she couldn't believe it. He had organised a firework display just for her. She watched as the night sky erupted into, red and gold, green and silver and blue. Ginny could cry with happiness. For a grand finale, the fireworks were larger, they covered the sky in red and gold. "Happy Birthday Ginny." Harry read the words as they appeared in the sky.
