A/N: Okay here's the last chapter. I really hope it's not too short. I loved writing this story and I loved getting reviews. I hope you all check out the sequel that I'm planning. I think it might be called "Always and Forever" I'm not sure though so just review if you like it or not. But don't forget to review my story. It will make me come with the sequel faster.
Disclaimer: Nope nothing. Still....
When Harry and Ginny got back to the Three Broomsticks it seemed like the fight was finally done since everyone was back inside, except Dean. They walked to the table only to be told all about the fight.
"Ron punched him in the eye, George broke his nose and I think I broke a few of his ribs." Fred exclaimed.
"Well let's hope you won't have to do that to my next boyfriend." Ginny said giving Harry a smile.
Hermione, who had obviously caught on, smiled. Her brothers on the other hand had no clue.
"Well this boyfriend isn't coming near you or else we might have to do more damage to them then what we did to Dean." Ron said.
"Oh Ron you're so thick." Hermione stated.
"What?" Ron asked confused.
"Can't you tell who Ginny's next boyfriend is? I'll give you a hint: It's your best mate."
Ginny couldn't decide if she was mad at Hermione or relieved that it was now out in the open.
Ron, Fred, and George all stood stunned, while looking over at Harry.
"Better then Dean." George commented.
"Must warn you though, Harry, we'll do the same to you if you try anything funny." Fred warned.
"Fred!" Ginny squealed.
"Well I suppose if I had to pick anybody it might as well be my best friend." Ron said.
Harry sighed in relief.
"Umm Harry?"
Everybody looked over and saw that Susan had just joined them.
"Yeah?" He asked.
"Well I don't think we should go out anymore. I've found somebody else." She said looking over at Fred.
"Oh. Look Susan you're great and all but-"
Just then somebody walked in.
"Fred!"
"Angelina!" Fred said standing up. "I thought you weren't going to make it."
"I barely did. Hey everyone." Angelina said as she gave Fred a kiss.
"Susan this is my girlfriend, Angelina."
Susan got up and ran out, crying.
"Oh dear I hope you didn't traumatize her." Hermione said.
Everybody else doubled over in laughter.
When it was time to leave they said their good-byes to Fred, George, and Angelina. Fred and George both hinted that they'd see each other then they thought. But when Ron kept asking them they just told him to bugger off then they Disapparated.
Ginny got into a carriage with Harry, Ron, and Hermione. This ride was much more fun then the ride to Hogsmeade.
"Well that was one of the best Hogsmeade trips ever." Harry said. "Very eventful."
"Definitely the best way to end Hogwarts." Ron said.
"Oh Ron don't remind me. I'll be all alone next year." Ginny said.
"Don't worry Gin I promise I'll come and visit you." Harry reassured.
Ginny smiled at the thought of Harry still visiting her.
Then Ginny remembered her promise to Dean.
'"Only if you promise it will be longer then a week."'
Ginny smiled knowing that she had kept her promise.
They had gone out for a week and one day.
The night before they left school they all went down to dinner.
When they got in the Great Hall Ron and Harry were shocked to see seven redheads sitting at the Gryffindor table.
"Mum! Dad! What are you doing here?" Ron asked as Ginny ran up and gave them a hug, along with Bill, Charlie, Percy, Fred, and George.
"Graduation of course." Mr. Weasley said as if he had just asked the stupidest question ever asked.
They all looked around and realized that the Hall was full of parents and siblings.
"Oh Harry, dear, Remus wanted me to tell you he'd be here soon. He's running late."
Harry looked shocked. "Professor Lupin is coming?"
"Of course. You don't think he's miss this do you?"
Right on cue Professor Lupin walked in.
"Sorry I'm late. I didn't miss anything did I?"
"Professor Lupin!" Harry said.
"Is that you Harry?" Remus said squinting in a teasing way. "I couldn't tell by all you've grown."
Harry gave him a hug. "I didn't know you'd be coming Professor Lupin."
"Harry you've got to call me Remus. I'm no longer a professor. And that would be like me calling you Student Harry."
Suddenly there was a sound of a chair scaring and everyone fell silent.
"I am very proud to say that I am letting a wonderful group of people go into the world. But of course you've all heard enough of me throughout the ages. Please be polite as our Head Boy and Head Girl present a speech that they have worked rather hard on. Draco Malfoy and Hermione Granger." Professor Dumbledore clapped along with everyone else as Hermione and Malfoy walked up to a megaphone.
"She knew!? And she never told us?" Ron asked outraged.
"Thank you. Draco and I would just like to say what a privilege it had been to be Head Boy and Head Girl. It has been one of the biggest privileges. But it has been an even bigger privilege to come to such a wonderful school such as Hogwarts." Hermione said.
"We would like to thank all of these lovely families members for coming in today. The whole school would like to thank the professors for all the work you've taught us, even if it was more then we would have wanted."
All of the teachers laughed, even Snape smiled at Malfoy's joke.
"And of course we would like to thank one of the best headmasters
ever: Professor Dumbledore."
The whole Hall erupted in applause. Dumbledore took a small bow as he smiled at everyone.
Hermione and Malfoy walked back to their tables, obviously happy to be away from each other.
Hermione was muttering something about "My speech. Malfoy using it."
"You never told us Hermione?" Harry asked.
"Well me and Ginny never told you." Hermione answered.
"Ginny!" Harry and Ron both said.
"How else would I have arranged to get Mum and Dad here? And plus I am family."
Finally after Dumbledore was finished recognizing every seventh year student he stopped at Harry, Ron and Hermione.
"And I would like to add one special thing for tonight's event. Over all of the years I've taught I have never had such a group of troublemakers, other then some well-known Weasleys," He gave Fred and George a smile. "And of course Black and Potter. But anyway this group has been known to cause trouble and to even save the day. Please I would like to call out some special Gryffindors so I can give them something. Hermione Granger, Harry Potter, Ronald Weasley!"
Harry, Ron and Hermione all walked up to the head table looking quite shocked.
"These three students have shown this school much loyalty. I would like to present them each a trophy for this school." Dumbledore held up three gleaming trophies.
Later on that evening photographers from the Daily Prophet came by and took some pictures.
Finally after a delicious feast and when all of them were full and tired the Weasley family got ready to leave.
"I do hope you lot are packed and ready for tomorrow." Mrs. Weasley said as she got up from the table.
"We'll pick you up from the station tomorrow." Mr. Weasley added.
"Alright, dears, bye." Mrs. Weasley said as she gave each of them a bone-breaking hug.
And with that the Weasley family left.
After a year in Hogwarts it was finally time for summer break, at least for Ginny.
They all boarded the Hogwarts Express and found a compartment to themselves.
"I still can't believe Dumbledore did that." Hermione said.
"Nearly died of embarrassment." Harry said.
"But you're used to that. It's even more embarrassing when your whole family is watching and your mum's crying at the sight of you up there."
They all laughed, it had been a funny thing to see. Ron's dad had yelled
" That's my son!" Mrs. Weasley had started to cry at the sight of "Her little boy all grown up." And Fred and George had let off some of their fireworks but quickly made them go away at the sight of Mrs. Weasley, who was giving them a stern face. And the rest of Ron's brothers had either yelled something or had turned to somebody else to show off their brother.
After playing a few games of Exploding Snap there was a soft peck on the window.
Harry opened up the window and a large formal looking owl came swooping in.
Harry took the letters off of the owl's leg and it flew off again.
"Who's it from?" Ron asked.
"Ron, don't be so nosey." Hermione said.
"Oh like you wouldn't have asked."
Ginny tuned out the rest of their argument and instead was watching Harry read his letter. Harry's eyes looked like they were going to pop out.
"Harry what's it say?" Ginny asked.
Harry gave the letter to Ginny. It read:
Mirrorstrung Academy of Auror Training

"Harry this is wonderful!" Ginny said seizing him in a hug much like the ones Mrs. Weasley gives them.
"You get all the luck. I applied also but you don't see me with a-"
Harry threw Ron the other letter he had been holding.
"I've been accepted!" Ron exclaimed.
Ginny was about to give Ron a hug but Hermione beat her to it.
"Oh Ron this is great!" Hermione said giving him a kiss on the
lips. She quickly pulled away, only to see a pink faced Ron.
"Well' I'm hungry. How about we go see where the trolley is Harry." Ginny said trying to pull Harry out of the compartment.
"No way this is too good." He said pulling away.
"Harry." Ginny said giving him a glance that sent a shiver down his spine.
"Alright, alright I'll come but you better buy me some cauldron cakes."
When they were walking back from the trolley Hermione and Ron caught up with them. They both looked extremely happy, but both steered clear from the topic of the kiss.
"You know what's going to be harder then auror training Harry? Telling Mum and Dad about you and Ginny. You know Mum's going to choke you to death with a hug."
They all laughed at the thought of Mrs. Weasley hugging Harry tightly, which in fact she could possibly do.
Finally after their long journey home they were at the train station. They got off only to see one of the funniest sights.
Above the whole Weasley family there was a sign that said 'Congratulations!' that clashed with their red hair.
"Congratulations!" They all shouted as they approached.
"Dumbledore owled us saying that you've both been accepted into Mirrorstrung Academy. I'm so proud of you Ron." Mrs. Weasley said giving Ron a hug. "I knew you could do it. I knew both of you could do it." She said also giving Harry a hug.
"Mum let go before you suffocate him." George said.
"Sorry." She said letting go of Harry. "I'm just so proud."
"Molly we really should be going." Mr. Weasley observed.
"Right. We'll let you say good-byes to each other. And Harry you'll have to stay for the summer. You too Hermione."
"I might have to take you up on that offer." Harry said smiling.
The Weasleys walked away leaving Ginny, Harry, Hermione and Ron alone to say their good-byes.
Ginny gave Hermione a hug, also tell her that she had to come stay at the Burrow so she won't go insane.
Ginny was sad to say good-bye to Harry but she also knew that she'd see him soon.
"Where are you going to stay?" She asked.
"I'm going back to 12 Grimmauld Place. I'm going to fix it up for the Order. Then I think I might buy a place of my own. And of course I'll be staying at the Burrow for the summer. I think I might come on the 21st."
"You better." She said giving him a kiss.
"Ginny I have something for you." Harry said searching around in his pockets. He took out a lovely silver locket.
Ginny immediately recognized it as the locket she had wanted to buy when she had been at Hogsmeade. "Oh Harry it's lovely. But how did you know I wanted it?" She said as she turned around so he could put it on her.
"I saw you looking at it before. Susan thought I had bought it for her when I went inside and bought it. Kept looking at me expecting me to give it to her."
Ginny opened up the locket and saw a picture of her and Harry.
"You can change it. I just thought it looked bare without a picture." Harry said.
"No it's perfect."
A few kisses later, and having a scowling Ron watch the whole time, they finally said good-bye.
"June 21st?" He asked.
"June 21st. It's a date."
They gave each other one more kiss and both walked through the barrier, each going in different directions.
