Ginny Weasley was having a wonderful morning at her flat, located in Downtown London. She woke up in the arms of Dean after their celebration of her win with the Holyhead Harpies. They made breakfast together while watching the snowfall. And she received the best news when Ron told her that Harry was back in town. She could now win him back by convincing him that they are meant to be. Even if that would mean she would lose Dean.
At least temporarily. A girl has to have some fun, after all. She would have to be much more careful this time around.
"Gin, the Daily Prophet is here," Dean announced, holding the newspaper, which she was sure it would have an article about her game-winning score even though the other team caught the snitch. The teams were tied, and her goal was what put the team over.
Before she could tear into the paper to find the article all about her, she froze in horror when she saw Daphne Greengrass wrapped in the arms of Harry Potter. And the wonderful morning she was having was no more.
On top of the article showed a picture of the two slowly kissing each other, smiles growing on their faces. The two looked very much in love, and Ginny did not like that at all.
Harry Potter Returns and Found Love Once Again.
By: Parvati Patil
Harry Potter was spotted in Diagon Alley with a beautiful blonde on his arm. And the blonde was none other than Daphne Greengrass. With being an old housemate with the famous Boy Who Lived, I asked if I could interview, knowing very well everyone would like to see how the two got together. And for the luck for you, lovely readers. The couple said, yes!
The two ran into one another at café in New York City; Harry was surprised to see anyone from England since that was the one place he was trying to forget about after the horrid break up with Ginny Weasley, where he found her in bed with another man.
Harry wasn't looking for love when he found Daphne, but with Daphne being who she is, it is hard not to fall for her. Daphne Greengrass is the oldest of the Greengrass daughters. After finishing her education at Hogwarts, second in her class, flowing, of course, Hermione Granger, Daphne moved to New York to become a fashion designer. Something she became most successful.
Harry and Daphne didn't become a couple until after he told her the reason why he left England. Daphne had thought it was to get a break from being him. While that was part of it, it was not the main reason, which we all know. Daphne didn't find out from Harry at first until her younger sister, Astoria, who is getting married at the end of the month, sent her the semi-annual letter filling her sister in on the goings in the community. Once Daphne read the words, Ginny Weasley cheated on Harry Potter; she wanted to be there for her friend.
When Daphne showed up at Harry's hotel room, instead of being on her date with another man, she too realized she had romantic feelings for Harry. The two talked all night about his break up and how Daphne helped him recover and realize that he deserved better than the treatment he got from Weasley.
And boy, does he get treated much better by Daphne Greengrass.
After spending less than an hour with the couple, you could tell they are very much in love and happy. While most thought Harry and Ginny were the reincarnations of James and Lily Potter, I think otherwise. Even though Daphne doesn't have red hair like Lily Potter, she does have the same heart, soul, and mind. Which in the end, is truly what matters the most.
I hope nothing but the best for this couple and wish them well. And I also hope no one tries to stand in this couple's way.
"I can't believe it," Ginny whispered before slamming the paper down on the kitchen table. "She made me look like the villain!"
Walking over to his girlfriend, Dean asked what he thought was going to be a simple question. "What's going on, love?"
"I'll tell you what's going on. He found another woman!"
"Ah," looking down at the paper, "Harry's back."
Ignoring Dean, Ginny went on venting. "He wasn't supposed to move on! He was supposed to pine for me, wishing he could still be with me. I was hoping he wanted to still be with me. I should have a ring on my finger and a wedding to be planning. But he took far too long. And now he's with some other woman. A Slytherin? One of the most beautiful girls from Hogwarts! NO! This is not happening!"
Dean didn't know what to do or say. He knew he was always going to be the second choice to Ginny when it came to Harry Potter, and he was okay with that. He's in love with her.
While their relationship started rocky with her family and the public, which, to be honest, it is still rocky on both accounts. He still believes they made the right choice. Even though they could have gone about it in a much different way, Dean made a vow to himself to never have Hermione Granger angry at him because of Harry ever again.
"Gin, there is nothing to fix. We are happy, and he's happy," Dean said, pulling Ginny out of her rant. Holding her close, he took a small whiff of her hair. Still cinnamon, broom wax, and grass. Just like in sixth year. "We are happy, right?"
"Of course. It just threw me off guard is all."
Dean might have nodded along in agreement, but he noticed a small glimpse of jealousy in Ginny's eyes.
On the other side of London, Harry sat at the dining table with a cup of steaming hot coffee, and the Daily Prophet opened to the article about him and Daphne. As he read the article, he realized it was the first time he was excited to learn something about him in the paper.
"Parvati is an excellent writer," Daphne mentioned as she read the article over Harry's shoulder. "Much better than Skeeter."
"You have no idea," He mumbled, as he closed the paper before pulling Daphne onto his lap. "So, what any plans for the wedding with Astoria and your mum today?"
Shaking her head, she gave him a small smile, "No, I am all yours."
"Good." Capturing her lips with his ina hungry kiss.
Ever since they arrived in England, they had been so worried about how everyone was going to take the news about their relationship. And now they could just be themselves again — something the two most desperately wanted.
"Oh, Merlin! I am so sorry!" Ron exclaimed when he saw the state of his best mate and his girlfriend. Hair was disheveled, shirts were thrown around the kitchen, and the lap Daphne was on turned into the table with Harry on top of her.
The two quickly scrambled around the kitchen to make themselves look presentable.
"Is this payback for all the times you walked in on Hermione and me?" Ron asked with his back to the couple. Red-faced and all.
Snorting loudly, Harry also mentioned, "Don't forget all times with Lavender."
"Are you good yet?" Ron asked, his face even redder than before. "I need to talk to both of you, and I don't think you want me to see Daphne in any other state then clothed."
"Because you gave me that privilege with 'Mione," Harry laughed as he finished buttoning up his shirt, he glanced over at Daphne who was running her fingers threw her hair, fully dressed. "Alright, we're presentable."
Turning around, Ron sighed in relief when he saw the fully dressed couple. "Remind me to call before I just show up."
"Yeah, that would be a good idea," Daphne said with a smirk on her lips as she poured the coffee into a mug for Ron.
Taking the mug, Ron noticed the discarded paper on the floor. "So I saw the article, I mean the whole world saw the article. Have you gotten any owls yet?"
"Not that we have noticed," Harry said, winking at Daphne, making Ron blush for the third time since he's been here.
"Okay, uh, well," Ron stammered, making the couple stop joking around and pay complete attention the redheaded man standing in their kitchen. "Mum, uh, she read—read the article and well shewantstomeetdaphne."
"I'm sorry, what?" Harry asked with a confused look on his face.
"Please repeat that?" Daphne added with the same look on her face.
Taking a deep breath, Ron repeated what he said much slower. "Mum wants to meet Daphne."
Daphne stood up taller, digesting the news that Molly Weasley wants to meet her. The girl who is dating her surrogate son. "When?"
"Tomorrow. At brunch."
"Tomorrow's Sunday."
"I know. I tried to talk mum out of it."
"That means she will be there."
"Once again, I tried to talk her out of it. Hell, I sent 'Mione to the Burrow to talk her out of it, and even she failed."
"Why do I feel like I am missing something?" Daphne asked, looking between the two friends.
"Tomorrow is Sunday. Sunday's are the day that all the Weasley's get together." Harry said, turning his complete attention to Daphne.
"Okay, I have to meet your whole surrogate family. I don't see what—" Daphne stopped herself and put two and two together. Why would Hermione and Ron try to talk Molly Weasley out of meeting her the day everyone got together. "Weaslette is going to be there. isn't she?"
"Yes, and I would refrain from calling her Weaslette," Harry said, noticing the anger growing in his girlfriend's eyes. "Or any other name that is coming to your mind."
"Why are you protecting her?"
"I'm not. I don't want the only family I have ever known to hate you because you are attacking one of their own. Obviously, the same names you are thinking are the names I'm thinking."
"It's what all us Weasleys are thinking," Ron bitterly interjected when he thought about how his sister and best mate's relationship ended. It was his chance to have Harry like a brother, by law. And his sister took that away from him by hurting him in the worse way. "Mum honestly wants to meet you. And she knows you are only in town for your sister's wedding. She just figured it was the only time, which is why she won't budge."
Nodding her head slowly, Daphne looked at her boyfriend. "You want me to meet them, don't you? You always talk about them, and I should meet your family."
"I only want you to meet them if you are comfortable with everything. Including the fact Ginny will be there."
"Okay," Taking a deep breath, Daphne turned to Ron. "Go tell your mum; we will be there."
