Ginny sat down on the benches outside near the gardens and flopped down, she was ready to cry. It was hard enough trying to be polite and not sure what to say about the tension that kept rising up in the room. She was having a hard time preparing everything when all she wanted to do was throw a piece of that ugly cake in someone's face. There were also the furry little creatures that were running around. They had wreaked the decorations and Ginny sent for the kids to do something with them.

Draco and the men where off somewhere in the house, so she couldn't scream at him for this idea. She looked up at the sky, it wasn't that she did want to forgive them. It was that it had just hurt, it had felt like her heart was bleeding.

It had been years, she supposes that she could forgive them, since it was what they had wanted. However she had this weird feeling when Harry tried to talk to her.

She spotted Ron making his way out towards her, she sat up and looked at him. He looked like he was holding something and he held it on rather tightly.

He moved and slowly sat down beside of her; she stiffened slightly but relaxed again.

"Ronald, something I can help you with?" Ginny asked politely.

Ron smiled at her, "You know I remembered when we were kids and we would just sit out here. Look at everything. I guess when I went to school I forgot about my baby sister."

"As we grow up, sometimes we drift," Ginny said looking up.

"We should have not drifted that far apart. I guess it was my fault, but look at you now. You glow with happiness and pride for your family. It was our fault we didn't see that, my mistake," Ron whispered.

Ginny looked at him, "No one's fault. It was just a thing that happened because of it all. I'm not asking for you to say sorry Ron. I'm just hurt and it's been a long time since. I think it time we can let go. Ron I forgive, Draco was right. It's easy to forgive than just to hold onto the pain."

Ron didn't know what to say, but he handed her the box that he had clutched so tightly.

She looked at him questionably, and he urged her to open it.

She looked inside and it was pictures of each of her brothers and music began to fill the air. It was her favorite jewelry box, and inside was the necklace that she had saved up so hard for to buy. It was a simple necklace that had a snowflake diamond on it, it was small but it was the first really nice thing that she had bought for herself.

"You kept this?" Ginny whispered to him.

Ron nodded, "After you left I went into your room everyday and sat and looked around. You had most of your stuff packed but there were the little things. I have them all, if you ever want them."

Ginny stifled a sob, but in the end flung herself onto his shoulder and started to cry.

All the years of hurt had started to wash away as she sat there crying on his shoulder. Ron leaned his head down to hers and rubbed her back.

All he could think about was how good it was to have his little sister back into his arms.

Draco stood from a distance with Aidan and Randy at his side.

"So I guess than we all have to be nice to mum's family then?" Randy asked.

Draco grinned, "I'm glad your mum solved her differences, she always did get so quiet around their birthdays. You should be happy Randy and Aidan. There are good people, but people make mistakes too."

Aidan looked at the scene; he had always really loved his mum. If she was happy about that then he would support her, "Then I guess I don't get to punch Percy's face anymore."

Draco smirked, "Too bad, he got on my nerves a lot too."

So here everyone sat at their tables, Harry had received many pricey gifts from everyone and he was quite happy. Ginny was happier and she laughed with Fred and George when they told her about their success and their jokes. It was like one big happy family.

Aidan looked and surveyed the room.

His mum was slow dancing with dad and they looked so happy. Randy was getting along with Amy Weasley, Uncle Ron's and Aunt Hermione second eldest.

Calandre was playing with Uncle Charlie and his wife; she had such a laughter that echoed the room.

His twin was dancing on the floor with Blake Zabini, to Aidan it looked like sparks were flying. He only had to laugh, but it was hard watching his twin being so close to someone else rather than him.

Finally Mary was talking; which was an unusual sight with Dom Flint and Brittany Weasley.

He looked around, everyone was happy and he was pleased to finally see that his mum was really laughing and not trying to hide.

At the beginning when we moved here, all of us resented it. Dad had said that it was really for our mum and we should help her. They had told us about her past a long time ago. Mum used to cry on birthdays or the date when she left them. I wasn't use to seeing my mum so sad and tired, it was like watching another person on those days. Dad always did try his best to do whatever he could to cheer up mum. I remember when I was little; Eve and I would always play Quidditch with dad. Then one of those days we were running around the mansion and we came across mum crying. At first it was shocking because I had never seen my mum like that. Dad was at work and he didn't know. I remember walking over and crawling onto my mum's lap and trying to brush the tears away. I said to her that big girls don't cry and she smiled down at me. She replied that sometimes everyone cries to wash away the hurt. I looked at her confused asking where was my mummy hurt. She took my hand and placed it over her heart, saying here and when I was older I would understand. When we were old enough, it was that same day I saw her crying. Eve wasn't here since she was taking care of Randy while mum rested. I walked over to where she sat. She was starring at the window like she was last time. She looked at me and smiled. I knelt in front of her and asked her what was wrong while I tried to brush away the tears. This time she told me her story and dad's. I never knew that mum and dad went through so much especially the war, I realized at that moment they were like my idol. They never did talk much about there past, especially what they saw during the dark times. Such strong people only trying to find love and happiness. I would've never known that my mum was somewhat of an outcast and dad was such a bully. I liked how they turned out though. As she finish telling me her tale I looked at her and said 'Good people make mistakes too, and that mum you shouldn't cry on this day but more celebrate with them.' She smiled down at me and I stood up went and returned with a candle. She took her wand and lit it. I sat down beside her and watched with her the candle flame flicker back and forth. I see now that mum was always trying to be strong for us, so we eventually agreed together that this was for mum and dad. It wouldn't be so bad either. I'd have a chance to see mum and dad's homeland and Hogwarts. They told us many bedtime stories about Hogwarts, so here was my chance to mark down history as my parents did. Dad was Head Boy and Seeker for his house and mum was a nurse that healed a lot of people and she was Chaser for her house. I want to be like them, I want to be the good people that they turned out to be. Virginia Weasley- Malfoy and Draco Malfoy, I am proud to say that they are my parents and I would always love them.
