Moments later, she started getting extremely drowsy, and before she knew it, she drifted off. Harry nodded off soon after, arms around Ginny, holding her tightly. And there Harry and Ginny lay, intertwined together, both smiling in their dreamless sleep.

Chapter Twelve: Sand Beneath Your Toes

Sunlight shone through the blinds, causing Ginny's eyes to flutter open. She tried to shift herself around, but found that she couldn't. Waking up further, she noticed an arm strewn across her shoulder. Ginny emitted an ear splitting scream.

"AHHHHHHHHHHH!"

Harry sat straight up in bed, looking extremely bewildered.

"What? What is it?" he asked in a sleepy morning voice.

Ginny took one look at him, and started to laugh.

"I forgot you came in here last night." She said through laughter.

"That's why you woke me up at seven in the morning?"

"Yeah, sorry."

"Night." Harry said while collapsing back onto the pillow.

Ginny smiled, and settled back down. She still couldn't quite comprehend that Harry was lying right beside her. This is the way it was supposed to be. Finding that sleep was not going to be an option anymore, Ginny carefully removed herself from Harry's arms, and tiptoed out of the room. She began to make breakfast, making waffles and bacon. In the next moment, Harry padded into the room.

"Food." He said simply.

"Yes, food." Ginny said with a chuckle.

She went back to cooking, turning around every once in a while to catch a glimpse of Harry. He had his head down on the table, and looked to be asleep again. Once everything was finished, Ginny got two plates, and put food on each. She walked over to the table and placed Harry's plate under his nose. His head immediately shot up, and he began to eat rapidly. Ginny rolled her eyes good naturedly, and got to eating her food.

"Good." Harry said through a mouthful of waffle.

"Thanks Harry. It's my homemade recipe."

He just nodded and went back to eating his food. Long after they had both finished their breakfast, they were both staring silently at their plates. Suddenly, Harry jumped up from the table.

"Lets do something today!" exclaimed excitedly.

"Okay. But what?" Ginny asked.

"Lets go to the beach!"

Ginny became silent, and looked down at her plate once again. She had not been to the beach since Ash died. A tear fell down her cheek as she remembered that day.

"What is it Gin?" Harry asked with concern.

"It's, it's just that I haven't been to the beach since my best friend died." She said with a sniffle.

"Tell me about." Harry said quietly.

"My best friend, Ashley, and I were just spending a lazy day at the beach. We decided to go for a swim and we both went running into the water. I wanted to swim farther out and deeper, so I did. I was swimming deep underwater looking at all the fish, taking everything in. I decided to start to swim in, but then I changed my mind and floated in the water for while. When I got up, and started to look for Ash, I couldn't find her. Then I saw her brown hair floating in the water. I swam over to her as fast as I could, and turned her around. She was really pale, and spots of her skin were tinged with blue. I brought her to shore, and tried to revive her, but nothing helped. I called 911, but they didn't show up for fifteen minutes. By the time they got there, she was already gone." Ginny explained through tears.

She began to cry harder than she had in a while. Ginny hadn't talked about her death since the day of the funeral. Harry wrapped his arms around her, and held her as she shook with sobs. He ran a hand through her hair, trying to comfort her as best he could. They sat like that for a while, until Ginny pulled away out of his arms.

"Thanks for listening." Ginny said quietly.

"Of course." Harry said softly.

He brushed away the remainder of tears on her face, and she looked up at him. Harry began to lean towards her, but Ginny stood up.

"Lets go to the beach." She said.

"No Gin. We don't have to. We can do something else."

"No. I want to. I need to." She said with a sad smile.

"Well let's get dressed then."

They both went into their separate rooms, and changed into warm clothes. It was now October, and the air was chilly. When they reemerged, both were ready to face an afternoon that they knew would be difficult. Harry took Ginny's hand, and together they left the house. They began the five-minute walk to the beach, the wind whipping around their faces. Upon arrival, they saw the beach was deserted. Ginny let go of Harry's hand and walked a little faster onto the white sand. She closed her eyes and remembered that day in all its entirety. A memory of her spinning around, arms outstretched came to her.

Ginny spread out her arms, and began to spin. Eyes still closed, she spun, feeling the wind on her face. Finally, she collapsed in a dizzy heap on the sand. Harry had been watching her the whole time, but she hadn't noticed. He watched in amazement as she twirled around, loving the way her hair billowed out behind her, loving the peaceful look on her face. When she had finally fallen, he walked up to her slowly. He lay down on the sand next to her, letting the wind play in his hair, and on his face. Ginny suddenly began to move her arms and legs in a very odd fashion.

"What are you doing?" he asked curiously.

"Making a sand angel." She said simply.

After a moment, she stopped moving.

"Pull me up." She said.

Harry stood up and grabbed hold of her hands. He carefully pulled her upwards, and out of the way of where she had been lying. The shape of a grand angel was imprinted in the sand. Harry had never seen anything like it before.

"It's beautiful." He said in awe.

"It's just a sand angel." Ginny said with a slight smile.

She grabbed his hand and pulled him down to the water's edge, laughing quietly as she watched him recoil from the freezing water. Ginny pulled Harry down on the sand, and they both lay there with only their feet in the water. Harry would wince everytime the water touched his toes, and Ginny would smile slightly. They lay there for a while longer, until it grew to cold to be outside. Harry grabbed Ginny's hand, and they walked home slowly. All Ginny could think of was Harry's hand in hers, and how good it felt.

They walked into the house and immediately flopped down onto the couch. Ginny settled herself against Harry, and closed her eyes. Harry did the same, and they both drifted off to sleep.

They awoke an hour later, stiff and sore. Ginny's head ached, and Harry's back was stiff.

"I'm sore." Ginny said with a yawn.

"Me too." Harry replied in a drowsy voice.

Ginny was quiet for a moment. She was debating to say what she wanted to. Finally, she decided to.

"Harry, I think I'm ready to see my family."

"You are?"

"Yes."

Harry hugged Ginny unexpectedly, and she smiled in spite of herself.

"Let me just get ready." Said Ginny shakily.

"Take all the time you need." Harry replied sincerely.

I'm really going to see my family.

A/N: There you have it everyone! She's going to see her family. Aren't you excited? Lol. Once again...
