~2. The Proposal~
Harry had gotten up before Ginny so he could pick up the ring. He walked into the jewelry and walked up to the counter.
"Mr. Potter, here it is." the jeweler said as he showed Harry the ring. It was a very pretty. The ring had a gold band with a single diamond.
"Prefect," he said as he paid for it. He left the store and headed to Ron's and Hermione's. When he got there Ron answered the door.
"Hullo Harry!" he said opening the door and letting him in.
"Is Hermione here?"
"Yea she is in the living room. Why?"
"I just got the ring and I wanted to get a girls opinion. And since she is Ginny's best friend I thought she could tell me what she thought."
"Let me see. She is my sister you know."
Harry took the ring box out of his pocket and showed Ron.
"It's beautiful. She'll love it." Ron said after opening the box.
"Do you think so?"
"I know so, especially if it's from you. You can even ask Hermione" he said handing the ring back to Harry.
They entered the living room. Hermione turned around. "Hullo Harry. What are you doing here?"
"I'm finally going to ask her. I wanted to know if you thought she would like the ring I got her."
She got up and gave Harry a hug. "It took you long enough! She was planning on asking you."
"Thanks, I guess?" said Harry as they all stared to laugh.
"Let me see it!" she said. Harry handed her the box.
"It's beautiful! She love it!"
"That's what I told him!" Ron said laughing.
"Good" said Harry.
A little while later Harry headed home. He couldn't stop smiling.
"Harry! Where have you been?" said Ginny jumping up and hugging him as he walked in the door.
"I had to pick up something." said Harry returning the hug.
"What did you have to pick up?" "Nothing." he said then gave her a kiss.
" O.k. I believe you. So what are we going to do tonight?" said Ginny as she headed to the kitchen table where she has been working on an article for the Daily Prophet.
"Um, I was thinking we could er go out for dinner?" Harry said nervously.
"Why?" she said with a raised eyebrow.
"I love you Ginny. So, can't I do something nice for you?"
"You know I love you too. It's just weird. We hardly ever go out."
"I just thought it would be a nice thing to do. That's all."
"O.k. Where are you planning on taking me?"
"Um, it's a surprise." Harry lied. He actually had no idea where he was going to take her.
"Will I like it?"
"I hope so."
"Well, I have to finish this article. Hermione wants it on her desk first think Monday morning." Ginny turned around and continued working.
At that moment had found a quill and paper. He decided to write Hermione to see if she had an idea where he could take Ginny. The note said:
Hermione,
I wanted to know if you where I should take Ginny tonight. I want everything to be perfect and I have no clue where to take her. Write back soon.
Harry
He found Hedwig and tied the note to her leg.
"Give this to Hermione, quick" and Hedwig flew out the window. No later than an hour he got her response.
Dear Harry,
I think you should take her on a picnic. It will be very romantic. She'll love it! I know I will hear all about it tomorrow from Gin. Good luck!
Love from,
Hermione
He thought the picnic idea was great. He decided to make one in the backyard. They didn't have a very big one but, it would work. He put a blanket on the ground and put floating candles around the yard. They were going to eat sandwiches, some fruit, and wine. Everything looked perfect. Harry told Ginny to meet him near the front door at eight o'clock.
At eight o'clock Harry meet Ginny at the front door. She was wearing a short blue dress, and her hair in curls. Harry was wearing a green shirt and black pants with the ring in his pocket.
"You look very pretty" said Harry trying not to drool on the carpet.
"So do you. Well, handsome I mean." she said as she leaned in to give Harry a kiss.
After a minute or so of kissing Ginny said, "So, where are you going to take me?"
"Close your eyes, hold my hand, and follow me."
"Well I'm already doing one of the three." she said. Then closed her eyes. Harry made sure her eyes were closed then took her outside.
"You can open them now." Ginny opened her eyes.
"O. It's beautiful. But we didn't really go anywhere" she turned around and kissed Harry.
After they ate they stared at the stars. Ginny warped in Harry's arms.
After the long silence Harry said something, "Um, Ginny?"
"Yes Harry."
"I love you Ginny and I wanted to ask you something," you could tell he was nervous.
"I love you too. You can ask me anything"
He took the ring out of his pocket, got down on one knee (Ginny's eyes winded). "Virginia Weasley, I wanted to know if you would do me the honor of being my wife?"
Ginny jumped up and gave Harry the biggest hug she had ever given him and whispered in his ear, "Of course I will."
Then she kissed him. It was the most passionate kiss they had ever had. After the long kiss Ginny hit him in the head and said, "What took you so bloody long?"
Harry look stunned but managed to say, "I'm not really sure. I guess I was just waiting for the right moment."
She smiled at him, looked at the ring, now on her finger. Then they continued kissing now laying on the blanket. They were both on cloud nine.
