With Arms Wide Open
Disclaimer- I own nothing (that means the characters and the song) and this plot has probably been done to death already.
Summary- A story between Ginny and Harry to the song With Arms Wide Open by Creed. The story line is pretty obvious but oh well. It's lame I know but I'm bored. Also I don't own I don't want to miss a thing by Aerosmith
A/N- Sorry to all my (two) avid readers out there, I've just haven't had the energy to write anything positive and this is NOT turning into an angst fic just coz I decided it would be interesting to write them breaking up. This is a happy fluffy fic. Please excuse the majority of this authors not, I think I'm trying to convince myself

That night before the wedding Ginny slept at the Weasley house for one last time. All her brothers were there (Their girlfriends were at home. This was an all Weasley moment). It was spent mostly reminiscing. Mrs Weasley was almost constantly in tears. Charlie, Bill (who had agreered to be the God-father), Fred and George were being big brothers in a very sentimental way. Their little sister was getting married. Ron still had some reservations about all of it, but after a while he had come to realise that Harry did love her and wouldn't do anything to hurt her. Even Percy was kind of sentimental. He gave up talking about Cauldron Bottom thickness and just enjoyed the family environment. Ginny went to bed the night before her wedding feeling at peace and blissful.
Hermione stayed over at Harry in his apartment that night. It would have been complete if Ron was there, but they both accepted that Ginny was his sister and he should be with her tonight. Hermione and Harry spent the night talking about what they missed about Hogwarts and what they regretted. They also had a good laugh about when they tried dating. It was a nightmare but was still good for a laugh. Harry went too sleep that night thinking of Ginny.
Both of them dreamed that night about the love that bought them together
(A/N- I decided to stick another song in here. I just thought it summed up what I was trying to say about Ginny & Harry and how much they love each other…I'm turning in a sook. You can probably skip the song if you want)
I could stay awake just to hear you
breathing,
Watch you smile while you are sleeping,
While you are far away and dreaming,
I could spend my life in this sweet surrender,
I could stay lost in this moment forever,
Where a moment spent with you is a moment I treasure,
I don't want to close my eyes, I don't want to fall asleep,
Cause I miss you baby, And I don't want to miss a thing,
Cause even when I dream of you, the sweetest dream will never do,
I still miss you baby and I don't want to miss a thing
Lying close to you feeling your heart beating,
And I wondering what you are dreaming,
Wondering if it's me you are seeing,
Then I kiss your eyes and thank god we're together,
I just want to stay with you in this moment forever and forever forever
And I don't want to miss one smile,
I don't want to miss one kiss,
I just want to be with you right here with you,
Just like this, I just want to hold you close,
I feel your heart so close to mine
And just stay here in this moment,
For all of the rest of time
Finally it was the day of the wedding. Ginny was definitely less relaxed this morning then she was last night. Thankfully her morning sickness was over so she didn't have to worry about it. Ginny was out of bed at 6am running and started running around the house. This of course woke up everyone else in the house. Mrs Weasley took charge
"Fred, George, Ron, Bill and Charlie, take your sister outside and play some Quidditch whilst I make breakfast" She saw the look on Ginny's face "Yes dear I know your too nervous to eat but we need to eat too. Now scoot!"
Harry was woke up quite a bit differently…namely Hermione bouncing up and down on him sing
"IT'S YOUR WEDDING TODAY IT'S YOUR WEDDING TODAY ICKLE HARRY'S GRWON UP NO IT'S YOUR WEDDING TODAY!!!!" over and over again
(A/N- that's to the tune of Happy Birthday to you)
Harry groaned and rolled over. Somewhere around the 50th rendition of the song Hermione got sick of singing it (A/N- Finally) and took a more direct route
"HARRY GET YOUR LAZY BUTT OUT OF BED!!! IT IS 10AM AND YOU NEED TO BE AT THE CHURCH IN ONE AND A HALF HOURS!!! NOW MOVE!!!!!"
Harry jumped out of bed and…well he just stood there.
"Umm….'Mione…."
"Yes Harry?"
"What do I have to do?"
Now this was the reason Hermione stayed over (apart for the company fact). The heroic Boy-Who-Lived was only charismatic and that sort of stuff only when he was taken by surprise. Otherwise he dropped back to having the mentality of a 3 year old. Hermione was used to this though so she took it in stride.
"Okay Harry, Go have a shower whilst I make you some breakfast. Then Ron is going to come over and help you get ready whilst I go help Ginny. Ok?"
Harry nodded and ran out looking like a boy on Christmas morning. Hermione sighed. She gave Ginny her deepest sympathy.
Harry had just come down and started eating breakfast when Ron arrived. Mr. Weasley, Bill, Charlie, Fred and George soon followed Ron. Hermione pulled Ron away from the group and into the lounge room.
"What is this?? She hissed "I thought only you were coming"
Ron almost started to sob "Oh 'Mione, it's horrible, all the make up and hair and dresses…."
"Oh no!" Hermione glanced at her watch. "I'm late! Ron, make sure Harry is at the church all dressed and ready at 11:30. That gives you all one hour to get ready. If you're late, your going to be in trouble!" With that message Hermione apperated to the Weasley's to join in on Ginny getting ready and her getting dressed.
The Weasley's was in an uproar. There were roughly 30women running around getting ready (A/N- someone is crazy if they think I'm going to list them all. It's aunts and friends and the boys' girlfriends. I couldn't be bothered making up names)
Ginny was in an absolute tizzy she was extremely nervous. She squealed when she saw Hermione and ran over to her.
"He's ok? He's awake? He'll be there?" Ginny kept on with such things and Hermione realized she was just really nervous.
"Ginny…" Hermione asked "…. What have you had to eat today?"
"Nothing! I'm too nervous too eat!"
Hermione sat Ginny down and got some food into her. She couldn't decide who she felt deserved more sympathy
(A/N- By the power vested in me by FanFic.net I now fast forward this scene to the church. Basically Harry and Ginny were really nervous. That's all you really needed to get out of most of that)
The church had filled and it was now midday. Ginny had arrived a few minuets ago and the wedding was due to start any minuet. Harry was standing at the top of the isle with Ron (who's his best man) and all the other Weasley males except Mr Weasley who would soon be walking Ginny down the isle. Mrs Weasley was in the front row crying. Harry was so nervous he was sure he was about to puke when the bridal march started up. The end door opened and the most beautiful sight Harry had ever seen walked through the door.
Ginny was wearing a white Muggle style Wedding Dress. It was a shimmery white material with spaghetti straps. It's fell out right under the bust and there was shimmers of gold thread all the way through it. Her hair was softly curled and half was held up by a few pins, with a few wisps round her face. She had a simple bouquet of white lilies. She looked absolutely radiant.
Suddenly this beautiful woman was standing beside Harry. Ginny and Harry stared into each other's eyes missing most of what the priest had to say. They both tuned into hear "Now we would normally read the traditional vows but Harry and Virginia had written their own. Harry…"The priest prompted.
Harry looked into Ginny's eyes and spoke from the heart.
"Ginny, You mean the world to me. You've always seen me as myself and let me be myself. You've supported me through the hard time and laughed with me in the good. I look at you and I look at my life with you in it and I feel complete. You make me feel alive Virginia, you make me feel whole"
Mrs Weasley started to cry even harder.
"Harry, I've loved you from the moment I first saw you. You've always listened and been there for me. You've believed me and loved me and never asked anything in return. You give me a reason to wake up in the morning. You complete me."
"Harry, take Virginia's hand. Do you Harry Potter, here by take Virginia Weasley to be your lawfully wedded wife. Through Richer, through poorer, through sickness and through health, 'till death do you part?"
"I do" And Harry slipped the ring onto Ginny's finger.
"Do you Virginia Weasley here by take Harry Potter to be your lawfully wedded husband. Through Richer, through poorer, through sickness and through health, 'till death do you part?"
"I do" And Ginny slipped the ring onto Harry's finger.
"By the power vested in me, I now pronounce you man and wife. You may now kiss the bride"
As Harry and Ginny leaned into kiss Ginny place Harry's hand on her stomach. Just as the finished their kiss, Ginny felt a fluttering on her stomach and she knew Harry felt it too.
"Harry, The baby just kicked" Mrs Virginia Potter said smiling whilst looking at her new husband.
