Hey Guys! I'm HermioneLovegood99 this is my first (proper) fan fiction. I'm hoping to do the whole 19 years in between the epilogue. Let's hope I can do it! . I am also going to put Charlie with a wife so don't judge. I might also not include every day because that would be boring. I will try not to make too many cliff hangers. So please review and give my story a go~

*Rated T for later chapters* Just to keep it safe ;)

Here goes…

Chapter 1: Starting Over

2nd May 1998

Ginny saw Voldemort being destroyed into a million pieces; then she knew it was over. She wasn't overly happy, she had lost so many friends and family. Tonks, Remus, Colin and Lavender. The saddest of all Fred. Ginny's heart had not been broken but smashed into a billion tiny bits. She couldn't bear seeing George or any of her family in mourning.

Ginny looked around and now the full extent of what happened had been revealed. Walls had collapsed, window smashed, families broken, causalities and the list when on. Out the corner of her eye Ginny saw a flash of brown bushy hair, red hair and black unruly hair speed up the stairs. She didn't know what to do, all she did was look up at her mother she gave her an approving nod. She was off.

Harry, Ron and Hermione were looking for an empty classroom that was useable. They opened a door and jumped in not locking it only putting a silence charm on. Lucky for Ginny she was just behind them and saw them go in. With no hesitation she burst in and started asking questions forcefully.

"Whoa, Ginny calm down. Everything will be explained tomorrow," Ron said reassuringly.

Ginny who seemed annoyed ran off in a huff.

"Gin, wait," yelled Harry desperately.

But it was all too late, she was gone… again. Seeing Harry's disappointed Hermione said:

"Don't worry Harry she'll come around. She's been through a lot.

"Haven't we all!" yelled Harry storming out of the room in the same fashion Ginny just did.

Hermione and Ron just stared at each other shocked of what had previously occurred.

"So about before…" Ron started, his ears going red.

Hermione was in a daze thinking about that kiss. How could he have kissed me? How can he love a bushy haired brainiac like me? I can't have been dreaming. How could he kiss me with such passion? I know he said it's now or never but maybe he loves me.

"Hermione you there?"

"I love you," Hermione said snapping out of her daze.

"You, what?"

"Ronald Bilius Weasley I love you"

Through shock and amazement all Ron could get out was:

"I do too"

Ron stepped towards Hermione with no hesitation, cupped her cheek and kissed her with as much passion as he could. Hermione kissed him back with just as much passion. Hermione was soon pressed up against the wall as Ron deepened the kiss allow Hermione to explore his tongue. They broke the kiss as they went for air.

No words were exchanged. Hermione grabbed Ron's hand and left the room. Ron and Hermione's happiness soon dulled away as they entered the Great Hall and remembered what had just happened in the past few hours. Ron smiled disappeared and Hermione's slight skip in her step died away.

After a half an hour later Harry found Ginny by the Black Lake. He could tell she was crying as her shoulders were heaving. All Harry did was sit next to her and put a comforting arm around her. When Harry made this gesture Ginny shrugged it off and got up making her way to the castle.

"Gin, wait I want to talk to you," said Harry.

"No Harry. McGonnagal said we should all go up to the common rooms and sleep," she said making her way to the Griffindore common room.

She walked up to the girls dormitory and shut the door.

Harry thought to himself I'll try again tomorrow.

Then he passed out on the closest bed and fell into a dreamless sleep.

Hope you liked it
