A/N: I am so sorry that it took so long for me to get this out, but when
I've had time to type it my computer was being mean or my sister made up
some excuse so she just "had" to go on and kick me off. Well, here it is.
The long awaited chapter 8 (oh and by the way chapter 9 is half done). I
hope you enjoy it and review (reviewing helps to motivate me to update).

Chapter 8: Hogsmade Trip
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Oct, 23,
Yesterday we went on our Hogsmade trip. We had such a good time. Ginny wanted to go as Godric Gryffindor and Rowena Ravenclaw, so we first went to the costume shop. Ton and Hermione got there costumes as well. Then we went to the restaurant. It was perfect. They gave us a corner in the back like we asked for, and they had our flowers at the girl's spots as we wanted. I had given Ginny white roses because Ron told me they were her favorite, and Ron gave Hermione red roses. Both with a long lasting charm to make them last ten times as long as normal. The girls loved them. Ron had been right; they were Gin's favorite kind of flower. Then we had the best meals in the world with a perfect dessert on the side. They even had two candles to add the finishing touch.
After lunch the girls wanted to go to the joke shop and then they went off on their own to do some shopping. We headed to the Three Broomsticks to have a butter beer whale we waited. Ron and I actually had a decent conversation. We talked about the girls and about quidditch and other random things before the girls came back. We asked what they had gotten when we saw the three bags they each were carrying, but we never found out. They just said other necessities for the dance. Ron and I both looked at each other with skeptical looks and burst into laughter. They gave us an evil glare before laughing right along with us. We headed back to Hogwarts. We ate supper in the Great Hall before we headed up to the common room to sit on the couch in front of the fire with the girls held close. We talked about the day and the up coming ball. We were so tired that we all fell asleep right there. It was perfect. I was so happy just to have Ginny there in my arms. She looks so peaceful when she sleeps. With her eyes closed and all of her muscles relaxed.
I woke up before her and watched her sleep. She was so beautiful I couldn't believe it. When she woke up, she did this thing that was so cute. She turned over to put her head in my chest so the light wouldn't get in her eyes. Then she made this cute little noise. It was like a soft little moan of contentment. I just smiled, held her closer, kissed her forehead, and said, "good morning love." She mumbled and turned her head back into my chest. I said "Wakey, wakey." She looked up at me and said "No, sleepy, sleepy." I smiled sleepily. I melted she was so sweet. I knew right then that this is how I wanted it to be for the rest of my life. I know that far fetched and a long way away but it was one of those moments that are so good you never want them to stop.
I leaned down and kissed her on her forehead once more. I then whispered "I love you," in her ear. It just popped out but I was sort of glad that it did because she looked surprised for about a second but then she whispered "I love you too," as she pulled me down into a long sweet kiss. It was the perfect moment. And it was just a moment too, because Ron took that moment to wake up and say, "Oh geeze, couldn't even wait until everyones up to go at it," Gin and I just smiled and kissed again. At least now I know she loves me back.

Dear Diary,
He loves me! He said so. It was wonderful. I'm getting ahead of myself again aren't I. Oh well, I guess I'll just have to start at the beginning. That's always a good place to start.
Yesterday we went to Hogsmade to get our Halloween Ball costumes and we went on a double date. Ron and Harry took Hermione and I to a fancy restaurant after we bought our costumes. At the restaurant we got roses and everything. I don't know if Ron told him or what, but Harry gave me my favorite flower. The white rose. It was so romantic. After the excellent meal, Hermione and I went off to talk and buy some "necessities" for the ball. You know things like makeup and things to help with your hair and stuff like that. We probably bought too much, but you know us girls tend to get carried away when it comes to shopping.
When we were shopping Hermione and I were talking about a girls favorite subject to talk about, boys. Specifically, our boys, Harry and Ron. We were talking about how nice the date was and how different Ron had been acting. He invited Harry and I to come on this date. Hermione said that she hadn't even persuaded him to do it. I guess he's not being such a git after all.
Anyway, after we were done shopping we met Harry and Ron at the Three Broomsticks and left for Hogwarts with our arms full. We arrived just in time for dinner. After dinner, we went back up to the common room and clamed a couch across from the fire. It was the perfect end to the perfect day. Harry and I were cuddled up close. I put my head on his shoulder and he put his arm around me and pulled me close. His shoulder was so comfortable that I fell asleep. I guess he didn't want to wake me or he fell asleep too, but we slept there like that all night. He's just too comfortable if you ask me. Is that even possible? To be too comfortable? Anyway, now I'm getting to the good part! I started to wake up in the morning but rolled over to get the sun out of my eyes. I didn't know where I was at that time but I really didn't care because it was so comfortable. As I was waking up I heard Harry's laughter and realized that he was who I was sleeping on. All of a sudden I felt a soft kiss on my forehead and heard a distant voice, which sounded like Harry, that said "Good Morning Love," but I can't be sure. I tried to say something but I don't think it came out very well because Harry then said "Wakey, Wakey." It was so cute, but I was still tired so I responded with the first thing that came to my mind. I looked up at him and said "No, sleepy, sleepy." He smiled and my heart melted. It felt so perfect so I smiled as best I could. He kissed my forehead again and said, "I love you," in my ear. I was surprised but quickly regained my composure and said, "I love you too." I was so happy that I wanted to celebrate, so I did the next best thing. I pulled him into a nice long kiss. That is how I always want life to be. With him right there with me. But before I could saver the moment anymore my git of a brother woke up and said something like, "Geeze, they don't even wait until everyone's up to got at it." Harry and I smiled and kissed once more.
It was just what I always wanted. The perfect guy to be able to cuddle up against and fall asleep. I never new love felt so good. I can't stop smiling, especially when I'm around Harry. And you know the best part of this all? I know he loves me, as I love him. I bet if he were to ask me to marry him right now, I would say yes. I just want life to be like this forever. It's perfect. I'll leave you with that happy thought.
-Ginny
