Because sometimes seeing and staying are two completely different things. Harry has been gone for four years, so when he finally shows up for Ron and Hermione's wedding Ginny's busy pulling out her hair and vowing to keep as far away from him as possible. Harry, however, has other drastically different plans. Mature for Language and later chapters. Don't like don't read.

When Ron and Harry got into their fight while out hunting Horcruxes, Hermione ran after Ron leading to some unintended consequences. Even with the best of intentions, things can still go wrong.

Harry and Ginny broke up publicly at the end of HBP, but what about privately? This is the tale of two teenagers, and their secret and sordid relationship! The first chapter is a bit tame, but things quickly change, and the rating is well earned.

AU. Harry is shunned not only Ron, but Hermione as well after the Goblet of Fire incident. Ginny befriends Harry and history changes. Future Dark!Harry Dark!Ginny pairing, extended summary inside. Note from 2012: I'm not a huge fan of this story now, but leaving it up for historical purposes for those who do enjoy it.
