Hey Everyone! Thanx soooo much for the reviews. Goodness I'm repetitive. Well anyway thanx to Lyny Angell who always spots my typos.

This one should be good...

Lyny Angell: I wanted to know if you wanted to edit my stories before I post them? Just an idea... If you do send me your e-mail address in the review and I'll send you a copy of the chapter before I post it...

More singing and memories

Ginny got down off the stage and went to find Harry. She made her way to the booth he had been sitting at but he wasn't there. Then the announcer came on...

"Please give a warm welcome to a Mr. Harry Potter singing 'If I didn't know better' by Luther Vandross."

Harry walked out on stage and started to sing.


"I think sometimes I can read your mind
When you make things up I can tell you lie
I see the things that your man can't see
And I wonder what kind of man is he
The one who you say is your lover
Who you insist takes care of you under the covers
And who is there for you and loves you like no other
Then you kiss and tell me that you love me like a brother"

Ginny's breath caught in her chest. She never knew that Harry could sing. It was just wow! He was amazing.

"[CHORUS]
If I didn't know better
I'd think that you were mine, you're with me all the time
If I didn't know better
I'd swear we're more than friends, you're touching me again
If I didn't know better
I'd think we were in love
Girl, do you wanna tell me something
Oh, oh, oh"

Ginny had never seen Harry so relaxed. He actually looked like he was having fun...


"I could be wrong about the things you say
But I don't rub up on my friends that way
You tell me that you've always been a flirt
But if it goes wrong, I could get hurt
But no, you insist it's harmless playin'
It's just a part of who you are, that it's just your nature
And that it's fine
You know I'm a friend, it's really nothing
You say that I'm just like a...
That I'm just like a brother"

Ginny was in awe. She slowly rose out of her chair and walked toward the stage...
"If I didn't know better
I'd think that you were mine, you're with me all the time
If I didn't know better
I'd swear we're more than friends, you're touching me again
If I didn't know better
I'd think we were in love
Girl, do you wanna tell me something
Oh, oh, oh"

She just stood there listening to the words and swaying to the music...

"My idea of a friend is when you
Do a lotta things together and have a lotta fun
But my definition of love is different
You touch and hold each other
And you only want to be alone clinging to each other
Like you and he should be, but like you and I are
Well, I know it sounds crazy but..."

He winked at her. "Oh my Gosh" she thought. "Is he singing this to me? I don't think of him as a brother." She stood there just watching him.


"If I didn't know better
I'd think that you were mine, you're with me all the time
If I didn't know better
I'd swear we're more than friends, you're touching me again
If I didn't know better
I'd think we were in love
Girl, do you wanna tell me something
Oh, oh, oh"

Harry finished the song and after much applause he jumped down from the stage.

"You were great Harry!" Ginny squealed.

"You were wonderful Gin!" Harry told her blushing.

"Thanks!" They both said.

Some one else had gotten up to sing...

"So..." Ginny started.

"Doyouwannadance?" Harry asked very fast.

"I would love too Harry!" Ginny replied grinning. Harry relaxed. He took Ginny by the hand and led her out onto the floor. She placed one of her hands I his and she wrapped the other around his shoulder. Harry took her hand in his and snaked his arm around her waist. The song was David Hasselhoff, 'I've had the time of my life' (From Dirty Dancing.) She and Harry floated across the dance floor. Some how this song just seemed right. They danced...

"Now i've had the time of my life
No, I never felt like this before
Yes, I swear, it's the truth
and I owe it all to you
'cause I've had the time of my life
and I owe it all to you"

Ginny moved closer to Harry and he pulled her in...

"I've been waiting for so long
Now I've finally found someone to stand by me
We saw the writing on the wall
As we felt this magical fantasy
Now with passion in our eyes
There's no way we could disguise it secretly
So we take each other's hand
'cause we seem to understand the urgency
Just remember

You're the one thing I can't get enough of
So I'll tell you something, this could be love because..."

Ginny never knew how much she enjoyed dancing... It was much better than when Neville had been stepping on her feet...

"I've had the time of my life
No, I never felt this way before
Yes, I swear, it's the truth
and I owe it all to you

Hey baby"

Harry loved how Ginny felt in his arms. He felt so... right...

"With my body and soul
I want you more than you'll ever know
So we'll just let it go
Don't be afraid to lose control, no
Yes, I know what's on your mind
When you say "stay with me tonight" (stay with me)"

When the song was over Ginny and Harry decided to walk back and find Mr. Weasley. They found him and then drove home in silence. When they got back to the Burrow, Mrs. Weasley ran out to greet them.

"Harry dear could you go to the back yard and fetch me my kitchen shears?"

"Sure!" He replied brightly. Ginny followed. When they rounded the corner there came a great...

"SURPRISE!" and a bunch of people jumped out at him.

Harry was in complete shock.

"Harry don't tell me you forgot your own birthday?" Ginny exclaimed grinning.

"Well, yeah, I guess, I mean I did..." Harry sputtered.

"Well lets go open your presents." Ron called. Everyone laughed. Harry made his way over to a pile of presents. He received: a box of jokes from the twins, candy from Ron, defense books from Lupin, a knitted afghan from Mrs. Weasley, a collection of batteries from Mr. Weasley, a book on dragons from Charlie, a mini pensive from Bill, and cliff notes on advanced potions from Hermione.

"Ginny aren't you going to give Harry his present?" Bill asked his sister.

"Yeah..." she said handing Harry a box. Harry ripped away the paper and saw a smooth metal disk.

"What is it?" Harry asked.

"You know how muggles have video cameras?" she asked and Harry nodded. "Well this is like the wizard version. You just tap it and say view and it will show you the movie clips. I wrote to Dumbledore and got some of you and your parents..." she finished.

"We'll leave you alone for a while..." said Charlie as he motioned everyone toward the house.

"Wait Ginny stay." Harry croaked.

Ginny sat down beside Harry. Harry took out his wand and tapped the disk saying "View."

Suddenly the disk vibrated and then there was a picture of a little boy being rocked to sleep, then it changed to a boy with black hair playing with his father, there were balloons and cake so Harry assumed this must have been his first birthday party, then I changed to a wedding, there was Harry's Mum and Dad. They looked so happy. His mum blew a kiss toward the camera and Harry gasped. Then it ended...

Ginny looked warily toward Harry. There were tears in his eyes.

"Oh Harry I'm so sorry." She said looking at the ground. "I didn't mean to upset-"but Harry cut her off by pulling her into a hug.

"Ginny this is by far the best gift I have ever gotten." He told her letting her go. Ginny was beaming. Harry smiled. He moved his hand from he back to her face. He brushed a tear off her cheek and kept stroking it.

"Harry stop..." Ginny told him.

"Why?" He whispered.

"Because If you don't I won't be able to stop myself from doing something very stupid and something I know you don't want me to do..."

"How do you know?"

"I...I...Uh..."

"Do it..." he urged in a shallow whisper.

Well that's all for now... sorry for the delay in posting this chapter... please review I really appreciate it...
