A/N:I hope your enjoying the story so far and please bear with me as I'm
developing a small case of writers block. Enjoy
BTW, I don't own Harry Potter or anything else you recognize. It all
belongs to the wonderful, rich, and genius J. K. Rowling
Chapter 4:
As Harry was in his room, digging through his trunk to find some dry robes to wear, he started thinking. He wasn't thinking of anything particular until his mind came to the Tri-Wizard Tournament. He no longer was plagued by the nightmares that had been a result of what had happened, but he still partially blamed himself for Cedric Diggory's death. His self blame had shortly increased tenfold last year when he asked Cho Chang out and had stung by her words. FLASHBACK Cho,
Please meet me outside in front of the school at eight, I want to talk to you.
Harry When she had shown up it had given him a ray of hope but as they sat and talked about different things Cho asked him a question, "Harry, did you want Cedric to die?" Harry sat, somewhat shocked by the question even though he had been expecting her to ask it the whole time.
"Cho, I won't lie to you, you deserve better than a lie. I was jealous of Cedric, somewhat angry at him because he had beaten me at quidditch as well as to you, but that's all it was, jealousy. I never wished him to die, especially not like he did. If I could have protected him I would have, Cedric was a good man. A good man who shouldn't have died." Harry was holding back the tears as he said this when finally Cho spoke up.
"It should have been you Harry." With that she walked back into the castle leaving him there, her words stinging him like a hive of wasps. END FLASHBACK
Harry remembered how her words had nearly killed him. After that happened he truly did blame himself for Diggory's death until an unlikely voice of consolation helped him. He had been sitting in the common room, staring into the flames of the fire when he felt a small weight sit beside him. It was Ginny. She helped him, she told him that it wasn't his fault Cedric had died, that it was no one but Voldemort's fault, and that him beating himself up by blaming himself and secluding himself from everyone would only mean that Voldemort was succeeding in his mission to defeat those who opposed him by disbanding them from each other. Harry also remembered that this was the first time he actually saw Ginny. He had looked at her before, talked to her, and even had a pretty good friendship with her, but he had never seen her before this. He had never seen such concern her eyes as she spoke to him, and he knew that she was right. After that he and ginny became quite good friends and began to hang out a lot. This was mostly because neither of them could stand Ron and Hermione's constant bickering at each other so whenever they would start Harry and Ginny would just walk away and find something else to do.
Harry was snapped out of his thoughts quite suddenly when he heard the door of Ron's room creak open. He looked up to see Ginny there looking at him shocked and blushing furiously. That was when he realized he hadn't gotten dressed yet and was sitting on the camp bed Ron's mother had put up for him naked with a pair of boxers beside him. "Ginny, get out!" he exclaimed to her "Don't people know how to knock anymore!" He said all of this in mock frustration and anger as he put on his boxers while Ginny held her eyes shut very poorly. When he had his boxers and a pair of pants on he told her it was OK to look and she stopped pretending to be closing her eyes.
"I can see I've made a good choice in a boyfriend" She said teasingly as Harry put on his shirt and walked downstairs with her for supper.
When they walked into the kitchen to the disapproving looks of Ron and sat down as a jovial Mr. Weasley apperated in with a small pop. "Hello all! Molly, I'm home."
"Hello dear, you seem to be in a good mood."
"Well, I should hope so seeing as I've got good news"
"Out with it already!" they all said simultaneously
"It was the biggest shock I've ever received. I have been asked to do a job."
"Where at dear" Mrs. Weasley sounded a mix between happiness and worry
"Here in England, dear. Anyway I've been asked to do a pretty important job for the Ministry"
"Which one?" Mrs. Weasleys voice was all joy now
"Well, I have been asked if I would take the position of Minister of Magic to be precise since Fudge has been kicked out for what he did and didn't do" Everyone sat shocked for a minute then they house erupted in a storm of congratulations and celebrations. "Now you can't tell anyone outside of the family yet but the Ministry should be announcing it within a week, since they have finalize the work involved in making me official." Harry smiled at the site around him, something this good couldn't come to a better family, and as he smiled Ginny took his hand and intertwined his fingers with hers, making it all the better.
That night was easily one of the happiest Harry had ever been a part of. Within minutes Mrs. Weasley had all of her children there and had fixed up a veritable feast for the Weasley's Harry and Hermione. The night was made even better when Harry and Ginny officially announced their relationship much to the delight of everyone at the table, even Ron told him congratulations and that he was happy that if he had to let go of his sister it was to put her into Harry's arms.
By the time dinner was over it was nearing night time. Harry and Ginny slipped away from the crowd and decided to go for a walk. They walked for a bit and then decided to sit on the hill and watch the sunset into the ground. A deep sigh escaped from his lungs as he sat, watched, and listened. The songbirds singing out their last notes of the day, the sound of the crickets and other wildlife in the background, along with the last crimson rays of the sun reflected off of the hair of woman beside him, creating an orchestra of life and love he had never seen or felt before.
