Harry's POV

Harry was living at Number 12, Grimmauld Place after the war. He still blamed himself for all of the deaths. Remus, Tonks, Fred, Colin Creevey, all of their deaths could have been prevented. He and Kreacher had begun to tidy up the place, as the Death Eaters had destroyed the house after Yaxley got in. One day, he got two letters from the Weasleys and from Andromeda Tonks. The first one read; You, Harry James Potter, have been invited to the funeral of Fred Weasley at Godric's Hallow Cemetery at 4:00 p.m. on May 22, 1998. Harry once again felt a pang of guilt, reading the letter inviting him to the funeral of a man that was dead because of him. The second letter didn't help at all. You, Harry James Potter, have been formally invited to the funeral of Remus John Lupin and Nymphadora Tonks at the Godric's Hallow Graveyard at 5:00 p.m. on May 22, 1998. Harry didn't know if he took take seeing the friends and family of the people that had died because of him.

Ginny's POV

Ginny couldn't even look at her brother's casket. The tears were already flowing down her face, looking at it would just make her start full-on bawling. She laid the flowers next to the gravestone and went over to the one commemorating Sirius, James, Lily, Remus, and Tonks. She made more flowers appear and laid them next to the gravestone. Remus and Tonks' funeral was also that day. Harry had been invited to both, but he hadn't shown his face in public since the battle. Before she could turn away from the gravestones, a flower wreath appeared on both Fred's grave and the Marauders, Lily, and Tonks' grave. Every else too saw the flowers appear and looked toward the arch at the entrance to the cemetery. A lone figure stood there. Could it be Harry? Before they could find out, the person Disapparated, leaving no clue of who he or she was.

Harry's POV

He had decided to at least go to the funerals, but when he saw everyone looking at him like that, he changed his mind and Disapparated. He went back to Grimmauld Place and started searching Sirius's room for anything of his godfather's. He found a package hidden in the corner of the room. He opened it and found a note addressed to him inside. Dear Harry, I hope we'll be giving this to you on your 17th birthday Padfoot, stop being a total drama queen and get to the point Just let me do the talking Moony, okay Fine, but I might still butt in every once in a while. Anyways Harry, please ignore our conversation. Inside the box is a locket that Moony and I charmed so... It shows you whoever you need the most at whatever time Thank you Moony, anyways, this was your parents' idea when you were one. we thought we should do this to honor them. If we're not able to give this to you on your 17th birthday, then we hope you find it eventually.

Harry put the note down and opened the box, as the note had said, there was a locket inside. When he opened it, Sirius, Remus, and his parents were staring back at him. This was by far the best gift he'd ever gotten. He put the locket around his neck and went back downstairs. He heard someone come into the house. He quickly pulled on his Invisibility Cloak and went to see who it was. It was Ginny and Mrs. Weasley, who both looked tired and sad.

"Do you think he's here dear?"

"Yes Mum"

Ginny started walking in Harry's direction, Harry held his breath and tried not to move. She pulled the cloak off of him and slapped him across the face, sending his glasses flying.

"HARRY JAMES POTTER, WHAT WERE YOU THINKING, NOT CONTACTING ANYONE FOR WEEKS? YOU COULD HAVE BEEN DEAD AND WE WOULDN'T HAVE KNOWN!"

"Sorry Gin"

"YOU'RE SORRY, YOU DO THIS AND YOU SAY I'M SORRY?"

Mrs. Weasley left at this point, saying that she needed to go back to the Burrow to do something.

"Gin, I didn't think you would want to see me.'

"What?" There was no trace of anger in her voice now.

"I got Fred and everyone else..."

"Don't you dare blame yourself for their deaths."

"Look, can we just go back to the Burrow now"

"Sure"

"Oh, and Gin, one more thing."

"What?"

"Does this mean we're going out again?"

"Yes"

They apparated back to the Burrow and found everyone waiting for them. Everybody started yelling at Harry and asking him questions, but Mrs. Weasley told them all to just leave Harry alone. After a quick dinner, Harry went upstairs to go to sleep. He hadn't really slept in a long time, so he was out the instant his head hit the pillow.
