Enjoy:
Epilogue:
Ginny
Weasley was standing outside; her arms were crossed as she looked over the
lake. She was visiting the youngest brother she had and his wife. This visit
had many reasons, although the main reason was that Ginny wanted to see her
brother before she left Great Britain for her wonderful job. She didn't want to
leave, but nobody has told her to stay; even Harry Potter, her boyfriend of
five years, hasn't asked her to stay.
-Flashback
Ginny had
heard about the job when she was coming home early. She cooked a wonderful meal
and put on a beautiful dress. Then she waited.
When Harry came home, she greeted him with a
passionate kiss and gave him a glass of wine. Then she said: "Harry, I want to
tell you some important news." She saw his face light up and she knew what he
was thinking, he thought that she was pregnant. She hastily continued.
"Harry, my
boss has given me the most wonderful chance of my life, but I have to go to
America. It's only for one year, but I really want to know what you think about
it. Should I go?"
The
following moments were awful, and now she refused to remember them. It hurt her
so much, she had been praying that he would tell her that he was happy for her,
but he couldn't live without her. That he would miss her too much. Then she
would tell him that she would stay, and love him forever. However Harry never
said those words. Instead his eyes narrowed and his voice became iron.
"If you
think that this job is more important then our relationship, then you should
go. There is nothing more to say, then. Go. Leave immediately. I don't want to
see you ever again " She knew that he was hurt, that he didn't mean these
words, but she couldn't stay in the room any longer. She ran out of the room
out of his life….
-End Flashback
She felt
caught. She had to run. She started jogging; she had always liked to jog for no
special reason. It was one of those few times she could be alone with her
thoughts. Just running was helping, she realized. Sometimes Ginny had the
feeling that she could escape all her problems if she ran fast enough. Feeling
the wind playing with her hair… it made her happier somehow. 'Don't think about him' She told herself
over and over again, but it just didn't do a thing to help. After running for
what seemed to be an eternity she let herself sink to the ground, sobbing.
She thought
about their "perfect" relationship. Every single member of her family has thought
that it would be forever, she remembered their closest moments, and she
remembered their first kiss…
It had been
a week after Ginny's graduation. It was the day he had told her how deep his
love for her went. After a delightful meal, they took a wonderful moonlight
walk through the forest. It was so perfect and so peaceful… maybe too peaceful,
she realised.
Suddenly, Harry stopped and turned around to
look her in the eyes. Ginny saw sparkles in his, and they were making her feel
rather dizzy. He took her in his arms; they longed for that moment. This is so
wonderful, Ginny though as she returned his embrace. They both felt happier
then ever before. Harry raised his hand and touched her face. Later she often
thought that she still could feel his fingers on her cheek, then she would
always blush. Ginny had closed her eyes and titled up her head, her fingers
running through his hair. Then Harry leaned down.
"I love you
Ginny" Harry whispered into her ear. And it happened; they shared their first
kiss. Harry kissed her cheek, and slowly he touched her lips. He kissed her
lips lightly at first, his lips barely brushing hers, but then the kiss went
deeper; more passionate.
Even five
years later she couldn't remember ever being kissed like that before.
'I love you, Harry Potter, but maybe it's
better this way. I'll leave tomorrow… without regrets. You don't love me
anymore and my love is not strong enough for the both of us. I've lost you
again. Damn it!' she thought to herself.
After a
long time, which seemed to be another eternity, the young women stood up and
made her way back to the small house. When she entered, she was greeted by
Hermione "Hello Ginny… no! Don't tell me that you've cried again!"
"Oh 'Mione,
I don't know what to do! I still love him and he told me that he would love me
forever! What have we done wrong? Why can't we be happy like you and Ron? Was
it my mistake?" With these words Ginny broke down in Hermione's arms.
"No, dear,
it was Harry's fault. Don't blame yourself. He should regret it by now."
"If you
think so… I trust you. Thank you for listening. I think I'll take a shower and then I'll go to bed. After all
tomorrow's a long day." With these words Ginny stood up to leave the scene.
"See you
tomorrow, 'Mione."
"Good
night"
When Ginny
left the kitchen, Mione let herself fall into a comfortable chair. She was
pretty tired, but she wanted to stay awake till Ron came home. Before Ginny had
come in, she had took her three-year-old, Laura to bed. After sighing deeply
she took her cup of tea drained it in one gulp. When she placed the cup down,
she started to remember the last five years. After which seemed to her like a
century, she finally felt asleep.
Not long
after that Ron returned to his house with a little 'plop'. When he saw his pretty
wife, he sighed. He had the plan of talking with her about what happened
earlier that day but decided against it because he didn't want to disturb her.
Instead he lifted her up and carried her up to their bedroom. Then he turned
and sat down on the balcony. He made himself comfortable and was soon lost in
his thoughts.
-Flashback
Ron was sitting in his office. On his desk
lay several papers, which he was supposed to be working through. Suddenly he
heard a knock on the door.
"Come in"
he shouted as he was in a pretty bad mood.
"Hello Ron"
A rather familiar voice greeted the young man.
"Hi Harry!"
Ron's gaze darkened "What do you want?"
"I have to
talk to you!" Harry shot back
"About
what?"
"Ginny"
"I don't
think that there's much to talk about her, is there?" Ron told him rather
angry.
"Ron I've
made a mistake. Hopefully my last. It just was so… I can't explain it. Look
that evening when Ginny told me about the job, I wanted to ask her something,
and in some way I felt betrayed. I know I was a jerk, but I still have to talk
with her. Do you understand?" Harry said.
"Not at all Harry. Why do you want to speak
with her? I think you made your opinion rather clear. Ginny'll leave tomorrow.
You don't have to hurt her for another time, clear?" Ron almost shouted. His
face was redder then Harry could remember it ever was.
Harry, on
the other hand, looked really lost. When he spoke again his voice was rough and
it was barely a whisper: " Ron, I know I've hurt her really bad and I'm not
proud about it. I regret it every moment since that day. And I also know that
she is the best thing that ever happened to me. She is too good for me, but I
can't help it. I love Ginny and if there's the slightest chance that she'll
forgive me I've got to try. Please Ron, I love her with all of my heart, please
tell me where Ginny is! I can't let her go. I should have told her in the first
place."
"Harry, you
have to understand one thing: She's my sister and she trusts me. I can't tell
you where she is right now. There are a few people who'll kill me with their
bare hands…"
Ron
continued hastily when he saw the pain in Harry's eyes " BUT I'll give you a
little hint when her plane leaves. That's all I can do." And immediately
Harry's face lit up.
-End
Flashback
"I just
hope I have done the right thing. Harry, if you ever hurt her again, you better
start praying right now." Ron told himself before he made his way back to the
bedroom. Before he got to sleep, he made a short cheek on Laura and Ginny.
Since both slept like angels, he laid himself next to his wife and felt asleep
in a couple of minutes.
The
following morning Ginny awoke more exhausted then she felt the day before. In
her dreams, so many forgotten memories made their way to her heart. And she
felt the pain.
She remembered
their walks, and she remembered what Harry told her all those nights. But worst
of all, she remembered what it was like to wake up next to him after the first
night they shared together.
-Flashback
When she
woke up she felt his muscular arms wrapped around her. It was such a wonderful
feeling, she truly wanted to go back to sleep.
"Good
morning Darling" he greeted her.
"Oh
morning" she could barely say because Harry's lips had made their way to her
own.
"I love you
Ginny, now and forever." He told her between his passionate kisses.
"I love you
too." She whispered fully aware of his touch.
Then she
settled her head on his chest, inhaling his smell. He held her tightly and let
one hand wandering up and down of her back.
"Harry,
will you do me a favour?"
"Whatever
you want!" he whispered gently in her ear, which made her giggle.
"Please
tell me, that we never break up again, okay?"
"I
promise," he told her, pulling here even more closely..
-End
Flashback
When the
memory finally faded she looked into the mirror. "I've got to focus on my journey," she told herself, knowing that if
she let those thoughts free, she would burst out into tears. "Must be hormones," she told herself over
and over again since she discovered …Her hand was reaching instinctively to her
belly. Till now nobody knew about her pregnancy and she didn't want to tell
them in the next twenty- fourth hours. She remembered herself that she has to
be calmer when not for her own sake then for her baby. She smiled a little at
these thought.
Suddenly
her door burst out and coming in was Laura followed by no other then her
brother.
"Hello sis,
you look awful." He told her
"Oh thank
you so much for the compliment." She told him, smiling gently "How're you two?"
"We're fine
and you?" Ron asked her but knowing the answer by heart.
"I don't know. I feel like I look like, but
this is perfectly normal." She told her over-protective brother. Then she
lifted up Laura and ran down the stairs into the kitchen.
A few hours
later the whole Weasley family, now much larger then the last time, was
standing at Heathrow airport, making their goodbyes to Ginny. Ginny was hugged
and kissed so many times, her arms hurt already and her cheeks were constantly
red. After telling everybody that she loved him or her, she started to make her
way towards the gateway. But something, which wasn't quiet normal, caught her
eyes. Ron was shifting his weight nervously from one leg to the other.
"Ron, what
it's? Why are you so nervous?" she asked him, sensing his tension.
"Nothing,
I'll miss you." He told her and embarrassed her for the last time in a whole
year.
"I'll miss
you too. All of you." she told them. Then she turned around and was making her
way for her plane. 'I still have the
feeling that I shouldn't go' she thought by herself, when she suddenly
heard a voice.
"GINNY,
PLEASE WAIT!" She turned around, but didn't see anybody except of her family
who waved a little sadly to her. So she turned back and continued on her way to
the glass door.
"GINNY"
Again she heard the voice. She turned around and saw him. Harry Potter was
running like hell. Waving with both arms, his eyes pleading. She had no choice. She stood perfectly
still, waiting for his arrive.
"Ginny, I'm
so sorry! Please don't go." he told her, totally out of breathe.
"Harry,
this comes rather late. I have my ticket and I told them that I would come.
Besides, you were awful the other night." She told him in a rush.
"Ginny I
know. I was an idiot, but all I ask of you is your forgiveness. I love you. I
always have and always will."
" Harry,
you know that I love you. And I had already forgiven you two hours later. It
just hurt me so badly. I love you Harry." With these words she hugged him
tightly gave him a kiss on his cheek and turned around. 'Just ask me for a last time to stay Harry. Just one more time, and I
will stay, because I need you.' She
thought.
"Ginny" she
stood again like frozen her back to him, waiting for him to continue." Virginia
Weasley, that night I wanted to ask you something. I want to ask you now. I
know it's late but please hear me. Please Ginny, turn around to me."
Slowly,
very slowly, she turned around to face Harry Potter, the boy who lived and more
importantly, the boy she loved. "Ginny, I know I'm not perfect and in the last
few years I have made more mistakes than some make in their whole life-time,
but I love you, I want to spent the rest of my life with you. I want to have
children with you, I want to watch them grow up. I want to get older with you.
Ginny, I wanted to ask: Virginia Weasley will you marry me?"
Ginny felt
her tears running down her cheeks. He had asked her to stay in the most
wonderful way she hadn't dared herself to think. She was running into his open
arms and finally she said: "Yes, and Harry?"
"Yeah" he
whispered into her hair, still grinning from ear to ear.
"I'm
pregnant," she almost shouted.
"Ginny
-you're what? This is wonderful!" he told her and he lifted her up and kissed
her passionately.
A few steps
away the Weasleys started to cheer and gave each other high-fives of joy.
"Ron, you
told Harry about this, this time, didn't you?" Hermione asked her husband.
"Yeah my
darling, I did." He told her a little nervous.
"Good job"
And with these words, Hermione kissed her husband just as passionately as Harry
and Ginny kissed.
