Someone Worth Living For- Chapter Four

~*~~*~

"Harry!" called a voice from behind the trees. A few seconds passed, and Harry saw a glimpse of long, curly red hair from behind a tree. Ginny appeared in front of him.

"Harry, I'm so glad I found you. Mom told me to come and get you for dinner. She was very worried about you. You've been gone for nearly three hours!"

Harry looked up at the sky. The sun was just setting behind the tree line. He had no idea it was that late. Quickly, he stood and walked back to the burrow with Ginny.

Dinner was just as delicious as lunch. After everyone was finished, they all went outside to enjoy the night sky. Hermione walked off by herself, and a couple of minutes later, Harry followed her. When he caught up to her, he asked...

"Hermi, what's the matter? You've been really quiet this afternoon."

"I don't know, Harry. It's just a feeling in the pit of my stomach that something bad is going to happen. I'm really scared that Voldemort will seek revenge on us."

Hermione dropped her head, and Harry placed his arm around her and pulled her in close to him.

"Hermi, don't you worry about Voldemort. I will protect you from his wrath. Just relax and live for the present, not the future." Hermione stared into his emerald eyes. Their heads moved closer together, and finally their lips met. The kiss was short and sweet. Harry pulled her closer and they watched the stars.

A large thud woke Harry up in a jolt. He looked around the room to observe two peaceful sleepers. *Maybe it was just a dream,* Harry thought to himself. He lay back down and tried to fall asleep. A couple minutes later, another thunderous noise shook the entire house. Harry jumped out of bed, grabbed his wand, and cautiously tip-toed down the stairs. A shadowy figure was moving in the darkness. There was silence, and then there was a blinding flash of red light. ~*~~*~
