Hi again, my wonderful readers! I hope that you enjoy my fifth story! Also, I would really appreciate suggestions in the reviews. Well, that's enough from me now. Enjoy the story!
Disclaimer: Listen, I've said this a lot of times. I'm not J.K. Rowling, and my stories probably will never be as good as hers are.
I will defend the importance of bedtime stories

You Wanna Bedtime Story?
"But I don't want to go to bed Mummy!", Lily Potter pouted. "Honey, you need bed, or you'll be a sleepy Niffler tomorrow.", Ginny Potter said sternly to her daughter. "Fine", Lily said, turning her bottom lip out. Ginny smiled and carried Lily to her bedroom.
"Can I have a bedtime story, though?"
"Of course, honey."
Ginny walked over to Lily's shelf of bedtime stories. "Which one?", she asked, pulling out The Wizard and the Hopping Pot. Lily tapped her finger on her chin, a sign that she was thinking. "I don't want a normal story, Mummy", she replied, smiling innocently. "Oh?", Ginny said, sceptical.
"I want the story of how you and daddy got together."
Ginny looked embarrassed. "Are you sure, Lily?", she questioned.
"Yeah. Please Mummy?", she said, making puppy-dog eyes at her mother.
Ginny sighed. "Oh, ok then"
Lily smiled happily. She scrambled into her bed and pulled her blanket over her body. "Start now Mummy", she ordered.
Ginny closed her eyes and jogged her memory.
"We were playing the quidditch finals out on the quidditch pitch. Your daddy wasn't with us because he was naughty and had to go and do something with Severus Snape-"
"The guy Albus is named after?"
"Yes. Questions at the end, please"
"Sorry"
"So we were out there playing when Uncle Ron made a great save with the red ball, and I was looking for the Snitch-"
"The pretty golden one?"
"Yes. Don't interrupt, Lily."
"Fine"
"Anyway, so I found the Snitch circling around Katie Bell's foot, so I raced to it. That girl daddy used to like, Cho Chang-"
"I don't like her, she wrinkled her nose when she looked at me last time-"
"Lily!"
"Sorry"
"Cho Chang was chasing after me... So I whizzed towards the Snitch... We were neck to neck. So I took my chance when Cho looked at the ground for a moment, and grabbed the Snitch."
"Good job, Mummy!"
"Thank you, Lily"
"So the match had ended, and Uncle Ron, me and the whole Gryffindor Team went to the House Room to celebrate. Your daddy had just gotten back from his job with Severus Snape. So when I saw him, I hugged him and he- We kissed."
"Eww", Lily said, scrunching up her eyes. "Was Uncle Ron angry?"
"Only for a bit"
"That's good. Uncle Ron is always grumpy when daddy and you-"
"Don't say that about your Uncle Ron, Lily!" Though she was telling off Lily, she had a bemused expression on her face.
"Sorry Mummy"
"Bedtime for you now, Lily."
"Ok", Lily replied, yawning widely.
"Goodnight, my sweet girl"
"Goodnight Mummy"
The lights clicked off. Ginny peeked in James and Albus' room to check that they were asleep. Then she headed up to Harry and her room. "What story did you tell Lily?", Harry asked. "The story of how you and I got together", Ginny replied, climbing on bed and snuggling into Harry's warm body. "Oh?", Harry said, amused. "How did it go?"
"Pretty well."
"Good", Harry murmured, kissing the top of Ginny's head. "Because I know that you love me"
Ginny smiled. "Of course I do, Potter. You're just simply too irresistible."
And that's the end of my Fifth Fanfic! I hope that you liked it! Please review and have a lovely day!
