"Are you crazy?" she blurted out. Harry looked at her in disbelief. He looked down to the ground as he felt his heart dropped and sank.
They were still dancing and Harry looked up.
~When I feel like hope is gone
You give me strength to carry on
Each time I look at you
There's something new
To keep our loving strong~
"No—maybe," he said sadly, looking in her eyes. Nothing in her eyes. "Maybe that's what you think. I'm just telling you what I really feel inside, but I'm not asking you to love me. I'm not asking you to feel what I feel. I just want you to know, that's all,"
Yeah, he's not joking, she thought and looked at him. He was looking back at her, but she won't let Harry see what's in her eyes.
"Harry, I'm not yet saying anything," she said.
~I hear you whisper in my ear
All of the words I long to hear
Of how you'll always be
Here next to me
To wipe away my tears~
"Oh," he said, hoping Fates would give him a chance.
"Harry," she began. "All of these years, I always dream of being loved by the boy, whom once I had fancied and once I had given up on. I have always waited for that day to come. I always hope that one day you'll tell me that you love me and you're going to ask me if I love too," Harry stared at her, starting to feel the warmth he feels inside.
Ginny smiled.
"There's nothing I could wish anymore. They all had come true now. The night when I didn't expect would be the happiest night of my entire life," she continued and couldn't help the smile to grow wider. "Harry, yes. I love you too,"
~Now, I've finally found my way
To lead me down this lonely road
All I have to do is follow you
To lighten off my load~
Harry smiled widely and looked in her eyes, which are now shining with love. Without warning, Harry gave the tip of Ginny's nose a quick kiss. Ginny looked at him with warning.
"Harry! We're in the middle of a dance,"
"Don't worry. No one's looking," he said, grinning. They looked around. Ron and Hermione were sitting, talking enthusiastically, not taking their eyes off each other's.
~You treat me like a rose
You gave me room to grow
You shone the light of love on me
And gave me air so I can breathe
You open doors that close
In a world where anything grows
You gave me strength so I stand tall
Within this bed of earth
Just like a rose~"Gin, I really thought you would say 'no'."
"Could I say that?"
"I was just wondering because you asked me if I'm crazy,"
"I asked you that coz I want to know if you're just kidding or not,"
"I thought you gave up on me a year ago?"
"Yeah, I did. But it doesn't mean I'm over you already,"
~And though seasons change
Our love remains the same
You fave the thunder
When the sunshine turns to rain
Just like a rose~"By the way, who's 'her'?"
"Don't tell me you don't know her? Ginny it's you," he said, laughing. Ginny's eyes widened.
"Me? Did you know how much I hated that word? You know. It always reminds me of your special someone,"
"So you hate yourself?" he joked. She laughed at the thought of hating herself.
~You treat me like a rose
You give room to grow
You shone the light of love on me
And gave me air so I can breathe
You open doors that close
In a world where anything goes
You give me strength so I stand tall
Within this bed of earth
Just like a rose~Ginny pinched his nose playfully. "No, Mr. Potter. Since the second you told me who it is,"
Harry brushed his nose into hers, which made her snicker. They looked at Ron and Hermione. They were looking back at them, smiling wickedly. Harry and Ginny looked at each other and laughed.
~You give me strength so I stand tall
Within this bed of earth
Just like a rose~
"Let's disturb them," Harry said. They walked to their table, Harry put his arm around Ginny's shoulders and Ginny leaned against him.
"Hey, guys!" Harry called. "I want you to meet someone,"
Ginny frown and looked around. No one was with him except her.
"Someone?" Ron and Hermione said in chorus.
"Hermione. Ron. This is Ginny, my girlfriend" he introduced as if they have never met before.
"Ginny, that is Ron and Hermione," he said, pointing to Ron and Hermione. Ron and Hermione laughed together with Ginny.
"Don't mind him. He had just gone a little crazy," Ginny said and they sat.
"So, you're already an item?" said Ron curiously.
"Obvious, isn't it?" said Hermione.
"Oh, okay. Care to dance?" said Ron as another song started.
"Sure,"
~You and I cannot hide
The love we feel inside
The words we need to say I feel that I have always walked alone But now that you're here with me There'll always be a place I can go~"Look at those two. Do you think they would last forever?" asked Ron.
"I think so, you know. It's obvious that they love each other," replied Hermione.
~Suddenly our destiny
Has started to unfold
When you're next to me I can see
The greatest story love has ever told~
"Ron, you know, I really thought that you only love as a friend,"
"Haven't you wondered why I'm so jealous when you talk about Krum?"
"I wondered. I you thought he's special to me, he is," said Hermione, smirking. Ron's eyes grew bigger. Hermione laughed.
"Ron, relax. If he's my special friend, you're my special someone, but he's just my friend, not a special friend," she added. Ron smiled and put a stray curl of her hair behind her ear.
"Happy Valentines' Day," he said.
~Now my life is blessed with the love of an angel
How can it be true?
Somebody to keep the dream alive
The dream I found in you
I always thought that love would be the strangest thing to me
But when we touch I realize that I found my place in heaven by your side~
Back to Harry and Ginny…
"Yeah, my life is now blessed with the love of an angel," Harry told Ginny, listening to the music.
"Angel?" asked Ginny.
"Yeah, you. Coz you're my angel, my love, my inspiration, my life. You're my everything," he said. Ginny grinned.
"You're joking," she said and pinched Harry's stomach playfully.
"You can't torture me anymore. I'm your boyfriend now," he joked. Ginny glared at him, but trying not to smile.
"Can we go outside?" said Harry.
"Oh, sure. Why not?" she replied. They walked to exit the Great Hall. As they walked, Ginny felt that she was the happiest person now. Especially when Harry slipped his hand into hers. The feeling she got when he entwined his fingers into hers.
"Ginny, look at the stars. They're so far away now." Harry said when they were standing beside the lake. Ginny looked up. There are so many stars, then a star started to fall…
"A shooting star," she whispered. They looked at each other and knew what each of them were thinking and closed their eyes.
I wish we'd stay like this forever, she thought.
I wish this love would never end, Harry thought.
The moment they opened their eyes, they met immediately. Harry leaned closer.
Closing her eyes, his lips were on her own. Ginny couldn't think anything. It felt like a dream and the surroundings just disappeared. She didn't know where she is and all she could picture is about her and Harry.
My first kiss… Harry… was all she could think about. She wanted to make time stood still. She felt the sensation that was washing over her.
They broke apart and Ginny couldn't help but look into those fascinating green eyes. Still can't believe that Harry kissed her. Then, Harry held out a choker before her very eyes. Ginny's eyes widened.
"Harry, you shouldn't've—"
Harry put his index finger on her lips, which made her remain silent.
"It's okay. Besides I really planned to give this to you when I confessed my feelings to you even though you don't love me," he stated and put it around her neck.
"Happy Valentines' Day, love," he said to Ginny, who was looking back at him. Ginny looked down at it and touched it. She looked at Harry and beamed. Then, she stood on her toes and gave Harry a swift kiss on the lips.
"Thanks, Harry. I love it," she said. Harry couldn't help but envelop her in his arms, where she belongs. Ginny embraced him back.
"I love you, Ginny," he whispered.
"I love you, too, Harry," she whispered back.
"Gin, promise me that you'll never forget this night," he said.
"Of course," she said softly, still wrapped in Harry's arms. "I'll never forget this night and I promise,"
Of course, she'll never forget that night! How can she forget that moment?
All her dreams come true on a one magical and starry night.
