Yours Truly

Chapter 7: An Anniversary

Harry sat a good fifteen feet above the stadium and watched as red and blue dots zoomed and zigzagged up and down the field. He sat there scanning for that small, gold ball with wings that he needed to catch if he wanted to win the game.

Gryffindor was leading Ravenclaw now forty to zero. Ron has been doing some practice over the summer and has certainly gotten better. There was ever rarely a time where the Quaffle got by him. Ron didn't have much to do in this game, most of it was being played down by the Ravenclaw end of the field.

"Johnson is now in possession of the Quaffle! She shoots-SHE SCORES! Gryffindor is now fifty points in the lead!" Lee Jordan said, giving the play-by-play of the game as usual.

Harry was now slowly scanning the field for the snitch as he flew in closer. As he looked he came in eye contact of the Ravenclaw's seeker, Cho Chang. Cho gave Harry a slight smile and started flying the other way. When she moved, Harry saw that familiar glimpse of gold sparkle in mid air. Harry smiled to himself and zoomed in no time towards the spot where the snitch was. He reached his arm out and closed his fingers tight around the small, winged ball.

"HARRY POTTER CATCHES THE SNITCH AND WINS IT FOR GRYFFINDOR!"

The crowd went wild with cheers and jumped up and down. Harry landed on the ground and dismounted his broom. He kissed the handle of his Firebolt as it had yet to let him down.

"Ginny, you coming?" Hermione asked.

"No, I'm gunna wait here and walk up with Harry."

"Ok, we'll see you in the common room."

After the Gryffindor's congratulated Harry and the rest of the team and the crowd died down, Angelina gave a small speech.

"Well done everyone. Brilliant job, Harry. I have just been informed when our next games are. We face Slytherin the fourteenth of February and Hufflepuff the sixth of May." The team all nodded and headed to the locker room to shower and change.

Once out of the locker rooms, the Ravenclaws were leaving at that moment as well. Everyone congratulated the Gryffindors on an excellent game and started to make their way towards the castle and to get ready to go to Hogsmeade.

"Harry, can I talk to you?" Cho asked.

"Um, sure. I'll meet you in the common room, Ron." Harry said.

"Ok, see ya later, mate." And Ron walked off with the rest of the team. As they exited the stadium, he met up with Ginny.

"Ron, where's Harry?" She asked.

"He's still in there, Cho wanted to talk to him."

"Oh, thanks." And she turned on her heel and walked back into the stadium.

"Listen, Harry, I'm really sorry about what happened between us last year. I was still confused and insecure. I hope you could forgive me." Cho said softly.

"It's ok. Last year was a hard year for all of us. Don't worry about it."

Cho's face lit up. She threw her arms around Harry's neck and kissed him right on the lips. It happened so fast that Harry barely knew what was going on. Finally when he realized that it was Cho kissing him and not Ginny, he pushed her off.

"Cho, what are you doing?" Harry asked wiping his mouth.

"Picking up where we left off. You do still like me, don't you?"

"Listen, you're a nice girl and everything, but see...the thing is...I'm in love with someone else."

"Oh, I see." She said now looking at the ground. She was completely embarrassed. "Well, she's a lucky girl." She finished before turning on her heel and ran away.

Harry entered the common room and as always, there was a party in honor of Gryffindors victory. He scanned the room and saw Ron and Morgan dancing close to a fast song, snogging.

"Ah, and here's our star player now!" yelled Fred above the loud music.

Harry was making his way into the room, looking for Ginny, as more people were coming up to him, patting him on the back saying, "Good job, mate." Finally he found who he was looking for and smiled at her. Ginny, on the other hand, didn't return the smile. In fact, she looked quite pissed.

"Hey Gin." Harry said walking up to her.

Ginny stood up and smacked Harry across the face. The music stopped and all eyes were soon on them.

"Don't you 'Hey Gin' me!" Ginny yelled.

"What was that for? What has gotten into you?" Harry asked as he was now rubbing the spot Ginny had smacked.

"I saw you snogging with that Ravenclaw bitch!" She yelled back. She turned on her heel and ran up towards her dorm, tears running down her face.

"I'll talk to her, Harry." Hermione said and walked up to where Ginny went.

"What's everyone staring at? Get back to your business." Ron said. He grabbed Harry and led him out of the common room. "What in bloody hell was that all about?" Ron asked hotly.

Harry told him what had happen between him and Cho down at the Quidditch stadium.

"Honestly, Ron, I would never hurt Ginny, in any way. You know that."

"Yeah I know. Just don't try and talk to her right now. Give her some time to cool off. And while she cools off, you might want to find a way to make it up to her."

"I already have somewhat of an idea. I just need Hermione's help with some of it."

"Good. Now let's go back inside to the party and then we can get ready to go to Hogsmeade." With that said, they went back inside.

On the way to Hogsmeade, Hermione, Ginny and Morgan went into a carriage without the boys since Ginny was still in no mood to talk to Harry.

"And do you guys have any idea what today is?"

"Yeah." Said Hermione and Morgan together.

"I'm sorry, Gin." Morgan said as she moved closer and gave her a hug.

"So, what should be the first stop of the day be girls?" Ginny asked.

"Let's go into Honeydukes. I have the biggest sweet tooth." Hermione suggested.

"Alright." And they made their way to Honeydukes. When they entered it, Harry and Ginny came in eye contact with each other and Ginny left the shop right away.

"It's my turn to go after her then." Said Morgan, as she too left the shop to go after Ginny.

"Hermione, I need your help." Harry said as he grabbed Hermione's arm. "Do me a favor and meet me in A Girls Best Friend in about fifteen minutes."

"Sure. I'm gunna go and see how Morgan is doing with Ginny. I'll see you in fifteen minutes."

Hermione left the shop and started her search for her friends, when a pair of hands grabbed her and pulled her into a dark alley way. When she saw the owner of the hands, her heart began to beat again.

"Draco, you scared me! I thought you were a Death Eater or something."

"Sorry. But did you really think that I would go to Hogsmeade without seeing you?" He said pulling her closer to him and kissed her forehead.

"I know. It's just so hard to be with you without being seen by anyone. I wish we didn't have to live like this."

Draco sighed. "I know. One day, I promise we won't ever have to live like this. We can go where we want and not give a damn on who sees us." He said, giving her a tight hug.

Draco and Hermione spent the next ten minutes just snogging when Hermione unwillingly broke the kiss.

"I have to go. I promised Harry I'd help him out with something."

"Potter needs all the help he can get."

Hermione gave him a look. "He's having a problem with his girlfriend and he needs my help." She informed him.

"Ok, I'm sorry. I didn't mean anything by it. I'm just saying that I think he's really losing it. Especially after what happened last night."

"What happened last night?"

"I got a note from him asking if I could meet him and Weasley in the Prefect Bathroom. So I went. But it was a waste of time. We didn't do anything, nothing happened. I walked in, he offered me a seat and butterbeer and said, 'let's talk.' And then the next thing I know, my butterbeer was on the floor and they were staring at me like they couldn't understand why I was there."

"Hmm...well, I'll talk to him about it later." And she gave him a kiss. "I'll see you later."

"Wait." Draco said grabbing her. "Meet me tonight in our get away."

Hermione smiled and then nodded. Draco smiled and gave her a goodbye kiss. As Hermione left, the same person who caught them outside the classroom that one day, caught them again.

Hermione walked into A Girls Best Friend and found Harry sitting in a chair with his hands over his face.

"So what do you need my help with?" She asked.

"Well you're a girl so you know this stuff and you could help me pick out the perfect one for Ginny. I'm clueless when it comes to this stuff."

"Alright. Let's start over here."

A Girls Best Friend is a jewelry shop and there was no way Harry was going to do that kind of shopping without there being a girl there with him. Harry and Hermione looked at everything from rings, necklaces, bracelets, and anklets.

"Oh Harry! Ginny would love this!" Hermione said pointing to the necklace behind the glass.

"Yeah, I think she would too."

"So is it settled then, dear?" Asked the nice old lady from behind the counter.

"Yes, I would like to purchase this please."

"A very good choice." She said taking it out of the glass. "You know this comes with a matching bracelet for fee. Would you like that as well?"

"Yes, please."

"And what would you like the engraving to say?"

Harry thought for a moment and then told her what he wanted.

"Very well. I'll be back in a moment." And literally a moment later, the old lady came out with both the necklace and the bracelet. "Is this to your liking?" She showed Harry the final product. Harry nodded his head, paid the lady and walked out with Hermione, only to meet Ron and Morgan.

"Hey, how's Ginny?" Hermione asked.

"She's fine. She's waiting for us in the Three Broomsticks." Morgan answered. "She's still not happy with Harry though."

"You guys go meet her. Me and Harry will go our own way and then we'll meet up with you guys back at the school." Ron suggested.

"Ok, sounds good. We'll see you guys later." Morgan said and she kissed Ron goodbye. Morgan and Hermione made their way to the pub, while Harry and Ron went towards Zonko's.

Once back at Hogwarts, everyone except Harry went to the Great Hall for some dinner.

"Come on, Ginny. You can't be mad at him forever." Ron said helping himself to some mashed potatoes. "It was an honest misunderstanding."

"Ron, until he apologizes for being a stupid git, I'm not talking to him. Even if it does mean forever." Ginny replied while stabbing her ham with her fork.

As soon as they were done with their dinner, they headed back to the Gryffindor tower. Ron was doing a good job getting Harry off of Ginny's mind by telling jokes, and they were laughing the whole way there.

Harry was sitting by himself on the couch when he heard the portrait door open and people laughing. He got up and greeted them.

"Anyone up for some chess?" He asked.

"Not tonight, mate. I'm tired. I'm off to bed." Ron said yawning and stretching out his arms.

"Yeah, same here." Said Morgan.

"Ditto." Replied Hermione.

And the three of them were off to their dorms, and as Hermione passed by Harry, she gave him a wink. Once they were out of sight, the only ones in the common room was Harry and Ginny. They made eye contact and Ginny made to leave when Harry stopped her.

"Gin, wait." He said. "Can we please talk about what happened?"

Ginny thought for a minute, but once she saw the look on his face she couldn't say no.

'God, why does he have to be so cute?' She thought to herself.

"Fine." She said out loud.

They both sat on the couch and Harry grabbed her hand in his.

"Listen." He began, looking into her eyes so she would know that he wasn't lying. "I'm really sorry about what you saw. And I promise you that it was not what it seemed. Cho wanted to talk to me after the match today and after we decided that what happened last year was in the past, she thought I still liked her and kissed me. She didn't know that me and you are together. I'm sorry you saw it and I'm sorry if it hurt you. But that kiss meant nothing to me. I promise. I would never hurt you. I love you." He finished and he brought Ginny's hand up to his lips and kissed it. Ginny was in tears.

'Ginny, what are you doing? You could never really be mad at him forever.' She thought.

"Harry, your not the one who should be sorry. I am. I jumped to conclusions right away before giving you the chance to explain yourself. I'm sorry."

"Well there's only one way that I will forgive you."

"What's that?"

Harry reached into his pocket and pulled out a long, velvet black box and placed it on her lap. Ginny picked the box up.

"What is this?" She asked.

"Open it and find out."

Ginny opened the box up and her eyes widened at what she saw. It was a silver necklace with a heart charm on it. She picked up the necklace and it hung in the air by two of her fingers. She took her other hand and brought it up to the charm and she looked at it closely. Engraved on it was GW & HP. Ginny ran her thumb over the graving and then looked up at Harry.

"Happy Anniversary, Ginny." He said smiling at her.

"Oh, Harry. I was so mad at you that I didn't get anything for you." She confessed.

"It doesn't matter. I don't care that you didn't get me anything. As long as I have you, then it doesn't matter. You're the only one that I'll ever want. Here, let me help you with that."

He took the necklace from her. She turned her back to him and moved her hair out of the way. He put the necklace on her and clasped it closed. She ran a hand over it and turned to face him again.

"Harry, thank you. I love it. I love you." She said looking at him again and she threw her arms around him and kissed him. And the rest of the night was spent in each others arms.

A/N: well there ya go. Another chapter. I hope it wasn't too bad. Yes, there's more Harry and Ginny going on and less Draco and Hermione, but they are a couple in here too and things have to happen between. But for Draco/Hermione fans who are probably bummed by this chapter, FREAR NOT, for next chapter...more things shall happen! So why are you still reading this?! Review!
