Another chapter!

Squirrelface RAE: Thanks!

everpresent: This is not a story meant to be true to the characters, well it is as much as possible but Harry and Ginny would never have sex in the first place then… the characters have been modified so that this story is possible. Just as most fan fiction.

Theauthorthatwrites: Of course, I intend to finish the story. I have no idea of how long it will be yet though. I only have the lines of the plot outlined.

D.Torres: They want it to look like a suicide to (with some luck) fool Voldemort so that he doesn't search for them. Voldemort wouldn't believe Harry died just because his home burned down. A suicide is the best hope they have to escape and as Ginny said, her mother/family could never live with a "Missing presumed dead". Harry will most definitely be in for a hard time when Molly finds out (Unless he presents her with a grandchild)

Thanks for Reviewing!

Chapter 6 Dreams of a new life

Harry spent that evening informing Ginny nervously about everything he had read in the brochures. He knew he bored her slightly and he knew that everything was all right but he couldn't help it he was very nervous.

"Please stop" Ginny finally said when Harry informed her just how big their child was for the eleventh time.

"Sorry, can't help it"

Ginny smiled "It's alright but we do have other things to discuss like where we are going and how we are going to get there without even Dumbledore noticing"

"Oh right" Harry said putting the brochures down on his bed "We have enough money to go anywhere. I've never counted it but I think we have about ten thousand galleons"

"We might have a problem getting that money without anyone noticing, if people really think we are dead then they'll give your money away to charity or something"

"It's not my money it's ours I am marrying you Ginny" He felt warm all over at the thought of marrying Ginny.

Ginny smiled again "All right our money then, the first thing we have to do is go to Gringotts and then we'll move all the money to another vault, a secret vault"

"We have to arrange it so that we can access it from wherever we are going" He said thoughtfully. He hoped the goblins wouldn't keep track of their money so that they could tell someone but then he figured the goblins had let money be drawn from Sirius vault when he had been on the run to buy him his broom and probably wouldn't care less if he transferred his money to another vault.

"I think the reason Dumbledore seems to know where you are because of his Phoenix" Ginny said picking up a random book from his open trunk and examined it "We have to figure out a way to trick Fawkes and we have to find a way for you to practise Occlumency without magic"

Harry nodded resolutely "I'll ask Remus for books on Occlumency but I have no idea of how we could trick Fawkes… are you sure by the way that it is Fawkes"

"After the chamber in my second year Dumbledore invited me for tea a couple of times and I got close to Fawkes so I read up on Phoenixes" Ginny said as she replaced the book and picked up another absentmindedly.

"You know I think if we just told Fawkes he would understand" Harry said after a moment.

"He might also tell Dumbledore" Ginny pointed out stretching and yawning sleepily.

"You have to sleep properly, it's not good for the baby" Harry said and pulled her up from his bed where she had been sitting.

The following day went past in a haze of romantic dreams of a little house somewhere far south for just the two, and then three, of them. Neither of them wanted to set a specific goal for their escape they wanted to find the place rather then appointing one. All they had decided was that they would fly south on his broom over to France. Ginny had also started feeding Mrs Figg with lies that would make it more likely that they would in fact commit suicide, she had to do it good if she poured it on too heavily she would be sent back home. She had started out softly by telling Mrs Figg that she thought Harry's scar hurt, which it did occasionally.

"Good girl, Hedwig" Harry praised when his snowy owl brought him a huge package from Remus containing several thick books about Occlumency. The package had been made feather light so that Hedwig would be able to fly with it. It was just after lunch and Harry sat alone outside his house in the shade of the tree he'd once escaped Marge's dog Ripper. He put his glasses back on, he had placed them beside him to more fully enjoy the summer day. He knew that in one year if everything turned out as he wanted it too, he would be a father to a three-month-old baby, it was the scariest thing Harry had ever imagined yet he kept dreaming of it and usually couldn't help smiling. He doubted his ability to be a good dad but every time he did so he couldn't help thinking of what a great mum Ginny would be and that caused him to forget his self doubt.

After a few hours of intent reading, he found out that in order to practise Occlumency without Legilimency he would have to brew a truth potion and then have Ginny ask him questions. There was a specific truth potion that was preferable as it was easy to brew and that didn't require any rare ingredients. The downside of the potion was that it was not any good as a truth potion as the drinker instead of answering questions just rambled on about anything. It was perfect for practising Occlumency accordingly to the book.

He felt two arms slip around him from behind him, at first he froze but then relaxed as he realised it was Ginny. She loved sneaking up on him she claimed he was interesting to watch.

Ginny hugged him firmly "I've missed you" She whispered in his ear.

Harry bent his head back and rubbed his cheek against hers gently "We'll be together all days soon"

Ginny let go of him so he could turn towards her. They kissed hungrily both kneeling on the lawn.

"No, not here the guard" Ginny said embarrassedly when he cupped her breasts. Harry let go and hugged her instead. It was easy to forget there was a guard watching them at all time however, they were both sure that no one had heard their arguments or conversations. Their secret was safe from the guards.

"Sorry" He muttered.

"Mmmm" Was all Ginny managed to reply as she was kissing him.

"Had a good day?" Harry asked still kissing her here and there, where he saw the need for it.

She kissed him one final time and pulled away so that she could look him in his eyes "Not too bad, Remus sent you books?"

"Mmmm there is this potion we can use instead of Legilimency" He kissed her tenderly on her lips. A few kisses later, they went inside to be able to talk more freely. Harry told her what he had read in the books. Ginny started on the potion at once and Harry made himself some sandwiches since he had not eaten any dinner. It was a simple potion to brew but it still needed twenty-four hours to stir so it was not until the following evening Harry started practising.

The potion had a sickly sweet taste but it wasn't as bad as many other potions. Harry noticed at first a weak feeling on uncertainty.

"Are you alright?" Ginny asked nervously, they were both sitting on his bed leaning against the wall.

"I think so" Harry said only half paying attention, the feeling of uncertainty were rapidly growing stronger and before Harry realised anything he opened his mouth "It is so confusing, it's like when you through off the imperious curse, just like when Voldemort did it too me at the graveyard"

He started rambling about the graveyard and every other feeling related to uncertainty. He was only slightly aware of what he was saying and that part of him was too surprised to do anything. He didn't really know what Ginny was doing only that she was with him. As the effect of the potion got stronger, he spoke louder. Different memories appeared before his eyes. Every memory was related to uncertainty, his sorting, when he heard the basilisk in the walls, when he was picked for school champion, when he was naked with Ginny for the first time and when he found out that he was going to be a father. After the latest memory faded, he found that he didn't know what to talk about his mind went blank. The effect of the potion was over.

Ginny was staring intently at him her face red, he guessed he must have said something embarrassing "Is it over Harry?"

"Yeah… what did I say?" He looked intently at her hoping he hadn't said anything stupid.

"Nothing, I didn't like to hear" Ginny said smiling mischievously "but I am taking it to the grave with me"

"Was it about us? I know I said something about us" Harry asked.

Ginny giggled "I thought you would know by now that only you can make me blush like this"

Harry couldn't help stealing a quick kiss, however Ginny didn't settle for a quick kiss. Whatever he'd said, he would have to try and figure it out so he could say it again. An hour later, they broke apart and lay panting heavily in each other arms.

"That was naughty" Ginny cooed looking deep into his eyes. Harry sighed peacefully a smile tugged the corners of his mouth. They lay staring into each other's eyes for several long minutes, in a way it was much more intimate then the physical love. Harry knew every single emotion he felt could be read in his eyes just as he could read her emotions in her eyes.

As if they had decided it on forehand, they smiled at each other.

"I think I am going to try that potion again" Harry said softly.

"Don't expect this every time you do" Ginny teased just as softly.

"Do you have time to stay… what time is it?" Harry asked sitting up, Ginny still in his arms.

"About nine I think" said Ginny clinging close to him.

"I can't believe I am practising Occlumency when you are naked in my room" Harry said dreamily as he hugged her naked body tightly for a few seconds before he led her go and drank another few gulps of the potion that was placed on his desk.

This time he focused on keeping his mind. As the potion slowly spread in his body, a feeling of determination entered his mind. He tried to ignore it and focused on the present. Harry fought it for several minutes before the urge of remembering moments he had been determined over took him. As it did, he vaguely noticed that he had opened his mouth ready to ramble about the first memory that was associated to determination found him. The barrier between platform nine and ten was before him, he was eleven and sprinting towards it pushing a trolley in front of him. He managed to fight his memory and mouth enough so that he only mumbled.

"That was so much better" Ginny praised him a few mumbled memories later when the potion wore off. She was dressed Harry realised sadly, he liked Ginny best naked.

She smiled at him "You know as well as I that I have to go back, so don't make this harder for me"

"Sorry" He muttered smiling teasingly at her, he didn't want it to be too easy to just leave him, even though she had too.

"You are hopeless" She said and left his room. Harry dressed quickly and caught up with her on her way out to follow her back.

Harry's Occlumency training progressed well the following days, they soon also noticed that he was always better at it after sex. This caused Ginny not to have sex with him before training and only before she had to go back to Mrs Figg for the night. Harry wanted to complain but he knew it was for their own good and that he couldn't rely on being sexually pleased and content every time Voldemort attacked his mind.

Since the Weasleys were not exactly wealthy all the Weasley children were used to send owls to the library in Diagon alley for books they wanted to read and it was this way they got most books they didn't dare ask Remus for.

They read every book they could get their hand on about magical creatures with out waking suspicion but could not find anything on how to trick a phoenix into believing they were dead. This was fortunately their only problem in their plans so far, Ginny had found a perfect curse to burn the house down to ashes so fast and completely that no one would even expect to find their bodies. It was called the inferno ritual and was on the verge to dark arts. It needed at least two casters to work and it was perfect for their needs.

I know this chapter doesn't have much action it's a something of a build up for the following and necessary because this story would be way too rushed without it.
