"Yes!" cried Ginny, holding out her hand as tears started to form in her eyes.  "Yes, Harry Potter, I will marry you!"

Harry looked as though he was in Heaven, he stood up, and he slid the ring on Ginny's finger.

They stood there for a few minutes, embracing each other, when they heard their friends and family laughing.

They went back to the table, smiling happily at each other.

Ginny noticed that her dad was smiling at them, too.

Everybody else turned to them.

"Where were you guys?" asked Hermione, looking very grumpy.  Ron looked grumpy too.

"The garden." They answered.

"And what were you doing in the garden?" asked Fred, looking suspicious.

"Everybody, we have an announcement to make…" Ginny started.

"Oh boy…" muttered George.

"Ginny and I are going to get married." Finished Harry, beaming at his future wife.

There was a silence.

Then there was the cheering.

Hermione and Melanie ran up to Ginny and started hugging her, jumping up and down, examining her ring and squealing in delight, Alex stood up and shook hands with Harry.

"Congratulations." He said,

Ron, Fred, George, Charlie and Bill all looked stupefied, but recovered and went to shake hands with Harry as well, they hugged their sister, Molly burst into tears and hugged Harry and Ginny, crying for the whole world to hear that her baby girl was grown up.

Arthur Weasley made his way to Harry.

"Congratulations." He said, smiling and shaking Harry's hand.

"Thank you for everything." Harry replied.

"How come you didn't look surprised, daddy?" asked Ginny.

"Well, you fiancée here asked me before dinner if he was allowed to marry you." Answered Arthur, looking at his only daughter.

Ginny grinned at Harry and hugged her dad.

"Thanks dad." She whispered.

Ron was grinning.

"My best friend and my little sister.  I knew this was going to happen…" he kept saying.

"So do you know when the big day is?" asked Melanie excitedly.

Ginny and Harry glanced at each other.

"No not yet…"

"Well, I guess it's going to be after Ginny graduates." Said Molly through her tears.

"I don't know, Mum, I was maybe thinking Christmas or New Years, if that's fine with my fiancé here." Ginny said, taking Harry's hand.

"Are you sure you don't want to graduate first?" asked Harry.

"I'm sure.  Whenever you want to, is fine." Answered Ginny.

"Awwwwwwww…." Said Fred and George.

Molly sighed and wacked them on the head.

"Well, if it's going to be with Christmas vacations, we better get a move on planning that wedding!" exclaimed Melanie as Fred and George were rubbing their heads, glaring at there mother.

"Okay, okay, Melanie, I want you to make my dress." Proclaimed Ginny.

"Oh!  Really? Oh, Ginny!  You'll look stunning, I promise!" said a delighted Melanie, looking very pleased.

"Well, we're not going to plan this wedding tonight, let's all go to bed now!  We have to wake up early tomorrow!" said Molly.

"Shall we go in, my dear lady?" asked Harry, holding out his hand.

"Yes, let's, my dear sir." Giggled Ginny, taking his hand and walking with him to the house.

Everybody watched the happy couple go, they sighed and smiled.
