Chapter Five- No Interruptions
Harry wasn't sure where she had gone with the Floo Powder, therefore only yelled her name. It would have been easier if he knew she went back to the Burrow. In the rush, he did not stand properly in the fireplace at the ball, he came tumbling out of the fire at the Burrow. Not the best idea for his already bruised state.
Ginny was standing in the kitchen, she gasped when he appeared, and went running for the staircase. Ignoring his exhaustion from previous chasing, he went after her, not giving up until he'd reach her.

" Ginny, wait!" he grabbed her wrist in the first landing hallway. She tried to whip him away in hysteria, but after a second or two, she threw herself at his chest. He took a stop back to not loose balance from the force. She as shaking as though in the Artic, crying harder than he had ever heard. " It's okay" he whispered, " it's okay, it's okay" he repeated.

She muffled her confession into his shoulder, " I was only going to the bathroom".

" I know" he softly said, rubbing her back, " Fred and George are taking care of it now".

" Did they make you come here?".

" No, I wanted too" he would have gone even if not asked.

Ginny took a deep, ragged breath. " I'm sorry, I didn't mean to take off like that" she tried hard to hold back the tears.

He held her so close, feeling each beat of her heart, " don't worry".

" I want to forget the past, only because of him, because of Draco. It was stupid, our relationship was doomed from the start".

Wait a second, " your relationship?".

Ginny stepped away, staring at the opposite wall rather than at him. " We broke it off almost a year ago. It was the worse mistake I could have made. As much as he hates my family, I was the one he didn't notice. Dating him, well, that just opened the doors for endless harassment".

He kept his eyes on her back, " Draco Malfoy? Do you mind me asking why?".

She was beyond willing to tell the truth, no more lies. As embarrassing, or difficult, as it may be. " Just laying next to you each night Harry, it's like I'm dead. Despite what we've done, even though that could have been what killed me. I first saw you when I was ten, I can't describe that that was like. Draco was only there, because I couldn't go near you".

Harry stood against her back, loosely wrapping his arms around her waist. " I'm right here" he whispered in her ear.

She turned around in his arms, her bloodshot eyes staring into his. " Promise not to leave?".

He brushed a thumb at her damp cheeks, " I promise".

In tune, together, they closed the space between them. Though it was the third kiss, this one was different. It wasn't scary, to either of them. There was no storm, no Percy, nothing. Just the two, alone in the Burrow.

It lasted for several minutes, with the sun seeping into the horizon outside, it felt longer. Ginny kept their noses touching, she slid off the jacket Molly gave him from Ron's wardrobe. He captured her mouth in another breathtaking kiss. He kissed her gently on the lips, Ginny pulled at George's dress shirt, slowly working at each button starting at the top.

As that was being done, Harry softly nibbled at her neck, causing her to moan. She pushed his arms down after the last button, slowly sliding the cloth carefully off his skin to avoid the black and blue. His hands wandered her back in search for the zipper of her dress, her breathing had become more shallow.

During another fiery kiss, Harry pulled the zipper down her back, his hands warming the revealed skin. Thin straps on her shoulders kept the dress from falling. Ginny's fingertips outlined every line and curve on his muscled chest, he let out a groan into her mouth which picked at her nerves.

Ginny's hand quickly brushed against his growing arousal. " Does your back still hurt?" she whispered with eyes closed, sensing that his were as well.

" I can't feel it" he gasped.

She worked her fingers at his belt on Fred's pants. " Do you enjoy wearing my brothers' clothes?".

" No".

Ginny pulled the ends apart, " then there's no reason for you to be wearing them".

First the left, then the right, Harry moved the straps on her shoulders aside, the dress piddled to the floor. Ginny began to guide him backwards into the nearest bedroom. He took her along until his ankles reached the end of Ron's bed.

She shifted under the sheets, readjusting her head on Harry's chest. Their arms around the other waist, the star lighting was leaking into the room.
" Now that we got that out of the way, think we'll be able to sleep better tonight?" she asked.

He laughed, " defiantly".

" I never thanked you".

" For what?".

Ginny let out a deep breath, " for saving my life, in the Chamber".

He smiled, " Gin, that was five years ago".

" I know, but I was so scared to even look at you, it was really rude that I didn't even say thank you or anything" she thought if the previous event could count as a replacement.

Harry moved his hand up her spine, " you didn't have to be afraid, a least not enough to actually date Malfoy.

She gently pinched his abs, feeling so secure now that he said that, then giggled, " I love you".

" I..".

He was about to say it. The one word she always wanted to hear from him and only him for years that seemed endless. But a thud sound below became the interruptions they were waiting for.

" Harry? Ginny? Where are you guys?".
