Chapter 4 What Love is for


He really needed a camera he realised as he sat watching the evening news, he couldn't just let this summer, the best summer of his life, go by without even taking a photo of Ginny. He had photos of his parents from all kinds of events but then his father probably needed evidence that he had actually been on a date with Lily or Sirius nor Remus would ever believe him. He had only been able to focus the first few seconds on the news even though there were several mysterious deaths. Instead, he wondered what kind of cameras there were in the wizarding world and what exactly you had to do with the film to get the pictures to move. Perhaps he should write Colin and ask Colin knew everything about photography after all. Before Harry knew it, the news ended to be replaced by commercials and then drama series Harry had never even bothered learning the name of.

"Roses!" He heard Ginny's voice exclaim behind him, he snapped around "You got me Roses?"

"Hello Gin" Harry said only a little annoyed that she had taken up the habit of sneaking up on him.

"They are beautiful" Ginny said beaming at him with the bouquet in her hands.

"I am sorry if they are not completely fresh it was the best they had at the store" Harry said "I figured they would mach your neckla… hey have you really broken it this time or don't you love me anymore?"

"What?" Ginny asked uncertainly looking down on her necklace. It wasn't glowing red anymore it wasn't even red anymore instead it was almost transparent, a soft golden light emitted from it almost too weak to be seen in the day light.

Ginny gaped at it with a horrified expression "It's broken" she stated firmly, so firmly that it sounded as if she was trying to convince herself. Harry had gone pale, he knew he still loved Ginny but if the necklace wasn't broken then Ginny might not love him anymore.

"You fell on someone else?" Harry asked painfully trying to make it sound like a joke.

"Well technically" Ginny said and Harry's stomach contracted "but only Mr Tibbies, I suppose I must have broken it then"

"So what does that colour mean?" Harry asked calming down slightly.

"I won't tell you" Ginny said at once looking very pale "And it doesn't matter because it's broken"

As Ginny said this, she slumped down on the middle of the floor hugging her stomach as if she might be in pain.

"Are you alright?" Harry asked and stood up "It's not that you are ill is it? The golden light and all? If you are sick we got to get you to a healer"

"I feel a little ill" Ginny said now curling up on the floor. Harry sat down next to her putting his head in his lap.

"Where does it hurt?" Harry asked trying to see if she if she was injured somehow "Do you need to be sick? I can't feel any fever"

"Harry you did use protection didn't you?" Ginny asked closing her eyes as tears welled up.

"Yes, of course" Harry answered at once "You know I do Voldemort can't touch us here"

"No" Ginny said now starting to tremble "Protection against yourself"

"Occlumency, yeah but you know I am no good at it yet" Harry said.

Ginny now went stiff in his arms and she opened her brown eyes and fixed them on him "You bastard!"

Harry was so surprised that he let go of her and she stood up. He had no idea what she was on about, he couldn't think of anything wrong he could have done. She paced a few times back and fourth in the room before rounding on him.

"You stupid fool! You think you can go FUCK me like that?" Ginny yelled at him "This was so bloody not meant to fucking happen!"

Harry was speechless he tried to retrace their conversation to right before everything had gone wrong. They had been talking about their safety or protection as she called it. It was lucky Harry was already sitting down on the floor otherwise, he would have fallen when he realised exactly why Ginny was mad at him. He knew her necklace told her what she was feeling or in what condition she were and he guessed that a soft gold glow meant that she was pregnant.

"You fucking stupid damn son of a bitch!" Ginny yelled at him.

"You didn't use any protection" Harry stated, he knew he hadn't and judging by Ginny's reaction she hadn't either. The very idea of becoming a parent had been to far away from him, he had never even thought of it, he had never even suspected after all how could he be a parent he hadn't even had parents himself.

"I didn't use any protection?" Ginny screeched so angrily that it was hardly intelligible, too late Harry realised his mistake and found him sailing across the room, Ginny had been angry enough to perform magic without a wand. He hit the wall at the other side of the room and fell to the floor together with a potted plant. It didn't hurt too much but he didn't get up he was too shocked to do anything.

"Way to go Ginny you fucking slut" Ginny hissed to herself "You've killed the father that is so bloody perfect! Trust me to screw everything up! Youngest Weasley falls into that stupid lake gets possessed by a diary and pregnant at fifteen and to top it all she murders the father, absolutely perfect!"

Everything was silent for a few moments.

"Oh Harry I am so sorry" Ginny burst out sobbing violently and ran over to him "Please don't be dead, please don't be dead, say something damn it!"

Ginny slapped him hard across his face.

"Ouch" He said, the stinging pain helping him to gather his thoughts.

"Harry we didn't use any protection and now I am pregnant" Ginny said breathlessly still crying soundly. Harry didn't reply and they both sat in silence for a long time. Ginny cried.

"This is going too fast" Harry finally said "I remember the first time I saw you just a few years ago at platform 9 ¾. You were still holding your mother's hand..."

"You think I held mum's hand because I wanted to?" Ginny asked and started laughing it was a bit hysterical but it was better then crying.

"It's nothing wrong with holding your mother's hand" Harry said.

"Oh" Ginny laughed "You really just saw me as a little girl then didn't you?"

"Well…"

"You are so stupid you know that? Two years before I sneaked on to the train to get to Hogwarts with the twins, mum and dad were so angry. They had to go all the way to Hogsmeade and pick me up… After that I only got to go with them to the platform if I held mum's hand"

"You did?" Harry asked smiling slightly.

"Uh-huh I thought that if I only managed to get sorted mum and dad would have to give in, because you don't argue with the sorting hat" Ginny said.

"You want some ice-cream?" Harry asked as he got up to his feet.

"Sure" Ginny said and Harry helped her up as well.

"I hope you like chocolate" Harry said as he opened the freezer and pulled out the ice-cream.

Ginny nodded and got them a spoon from a drawer. They cuddled up, as they usual did when they had ice-cream, in the sofa. The electric fire was not much compared to the fires in the Gryffindor common room but it was something.

"So what happens next?" Harry asked after a few spoons of ice-cream "We have to tell your parents"

"I am not telling them" Ginny whispered firmly.

"Alright" Harry said "I'll tell them if you like"

"No" Ginny said "I don't want them to know"

Harry took a huge spoon of ice cream as he tried to figure out what Ginny meant with that.

"Why?" Harry asked when he couldn't think of anything.

"Harry" Ginny said and fixed him firmly with her eyes "They would never let me keep it, they would say I am too young and that I have to finish school first"

Harry stared at her "You want to keep it?"

"I could never murder my own child" Ginny whispered.

"You mean that you are going to be a… that we… now?" Harry said trying desperately not to panic.

"No not now" Ginny said "It isn't that quick"

"Are you sure?" Harry asked almost accusingly.

"Lets be damn strait about one thing" Ginny said standing up the rest of ice cream flying away landing with a thump on the floor "I don't need you Potter, I can take care of this myself! But you better damn well pay for it, he or she is not going to Hogwarts in second hand robes!"

Harry gaped at her, he had not been able to get the first thing clear yet, that Ginny was pregnant and now she was talking about going to Hogwarts.

"Fine!" Ginny spat heading towards his room "I'll just sell your Firebolt that should be enough for a few years"

"Of course I will support you" Harry said urgently as he realised that Ginny was completely serious.

Ginny turned around and glared at him "Good this is it then, goodbye Harry I won't come to Hogwarts this year, and I doubt we will see each other for a long time"

"You can't leave" Harry said as she put her shoes on.

"I can do what the bloody hell I want I can fuck anyone I want and I can raise my child anyway I want" Ginny hissed dangerously.

"That child is as much mine as yours!" Harry hissed back.

"You have nothing to do with this" Ginny yelled as an owl came flying in from the fire place. It was for Ginny.

"All you ever done for me is give me a few orgasms and get me in trouble with the ministry for doing under age magic" Ginny said when she had read the letter and the owl left.

"That is not true" Harry said.

"My child will not be a Potter" Ginny said angrily "If you want it to be a Potter you will have to raise it"

"What if I want to do that then" Harry said uncertainly he was not sure what he wanted everything was going much too fast.

"You have to be sure" Ginny said at once detecting his uncertainty.

"I know that" Harry said irritably "There is a reason it takes nine months you know"

Ginny expression softened at once and then she closed her eyes and a few silent tears escaped.

"Wake up Ginny you are dreaming it's just a really vivid dream, you probably dreamed the sex too that would be so typical you" She said and before Harry could stop her she slapped herself so hard across her face that she fell. Harry pulled her up from the floor in a close comforting hug.

"It's alright Ginny we'll work it out, lets not think more about it until tomorrow" Harry said and pulled her all the way into the living room sofa and sat down.

"Sorry I ruined the ice cream, it was really good" Ginny said softly.

"Mmm, I can get you more tomorrow" Harry replied.

"All right but I prefer mango" Ginny said.

"Yeah mango is good" Harry replied, happy for a simple subject for a change "And strawberries too"

"Yeah" Ginny agreed "You know what Harry?"

"No"

"I am not all that sorry" Ginny said "It's just a shock you know"

"It's a shock alright" Harry agreed "At least we won't have to worry about protection any more do we?"

"As if we ever did" Ginny giggled softly.

Harry kissed her "Let's seal it properly"

"It is sealed properly" Ginny said and kissed him back.

"It can't make matters worse can it?" Harry asked kissing her below her ear she shivered softly.

"You do realise I have to back at ten" She purred.

"Mmm" Harry said still kissing her.

"Let's go to your room I don't want your guard outside to know" Ginny whispered, she gave a shriek as Harry lifted her strait up and she threw her arms around his neck not to fall. She was not a little girl any more she was only a few inches shorter then he was. He had grown a lot his last year and was almost six feet tall. Ginny took after her father in that way, she was slender but still curvy perfect in Harry's opinion. With some effort, loads of kissing and tearing of clothes, Harry managed to get her up to bed. Their love making was not as prolonged as their last since Ginny had to leave a few minutes before ten but it was as good as ever. They poured their built up stress into each other and turned it into feverish passion.

Hogwarts really should teach some muggle subjects like Biology ; )

I know Ginny turns pretty sharp between anger and sadness but I find it suits her.
