Author's Note: Okay, here's the second part. This is all there is to this story, it;s just that this is a reassurance that things do get better for poor Ginny. Read and please review, I actually like this story, short though it is. Thank you!

Nine Years in Hell

An Assortment of Letters and Newspaper Clippings

DAILY PROPHET: BIRTHS, DEATHS, AND MARRIAGES.

June 14,

Yesterday, on June 13, Ginevra Aurelia Weasley gave birth to a baby girl, weighing in at six pounds, four ounces. Christened Gingersnap Aurelia Weasley, or "Ginger" as referred to by Frederick and George Weasley (relation: uncles), the infant measures 21 inches with red hair and brown eyes.

LETTER SENT TO 47 ELBURN ST. WEST LONDON.

Dear Ginny,

I received your last letter, and it both gave me hope and put me to shame. You know that in these last nine years, I've missed you more than I realized. When you told me that you and Malfoy were…well, let's not dwell on the past, yeah? Let's concentrate more on the future…where do I stand? In your last letter you signed it 'love, Ginny'. How you feel, I've no idea, but I have to tell you this, even if I can't do it in person. Ginny, I care for you…a lot. I know at Hogwarts I always treated you like my best friend's little sister, but that last year at Hogwarts…visiting and seeing you so happy to get a letter from him or a gift…it made my blood boil. It took me that long to realize how much I cared for you. But by then, it was too late…you and he…well never mind. Ginny, I love you. I know you've just had a baby, and I know whose it is…but I still love you, and if you can find it in you to care for me after what I said all those years ago, I would like to start a life together. Take your time and think about it. I'm coming up to stay with Fred and George next week. Would it be inappropriate for me to come and see you? Please write back to me,

Eternally yours, Harry.

LETTER SENT TO 26 WEST ELBURN ST. WEST LONDON, one week later.

Dear Harry,

I'm praying to every known (and unknown) deity I can think of that you can't see the amount of tears falling on this piece of parchment. But they're tears of happiness, which is another thing I haven't felt in so long. Harry, you know I always idolized you. You were my hero, my savior, my first love. I do still care for you, and it took these many years of hell with Draco to realize that I had a true love before him. And I though he was true love…silly little girl…Sigh. But I simply am not ready to start a life with you. Yet. Operative word there: yet. I do want to spend a life with you…bloody hell, I'd like to spend the rest of this one with you. But I have to start a new life of my own before I can share it with you. I'm still recovering from those many years and I need time to find myself again. But once I do, I'll most definitely let you know. Maybe we can work something out…

Love (really), Ginny.

DAILY PROPHET: BIRTHS, DEATHS, AND MARRIAGES, about one year later.

May 27,

The Daily Prophet is pleased to report that at long last, Harry Potter, The-Boy-Who-Lived had become the Man-Who-Married. Yesterday, on May 28, Harry James Potter and Ginevra Aurelia Weasley were wed in Just A Jest, the popular joke shop owned by Frederick and George Weasley, brothers to the new Mrs. Potter. In attendance on the bride's side were her parents, Molly and Arthur Weasley, eldest Weasley son William Weasley and his wife, Fleur Weasley, second eldest Weasley son, Charles, Percival Weasley, the Weasley twins, Frederick and George, and the youngest Weasley son, Ronald Weasley and his wife Hermione Weasley. One the groom's side were Remus Lupin, Albus Dumbledore, Minerva McGonagall, and the entire reunited Gryffindor class in attendance with Mr. Potter. The newly-wedded couple are on honeymoon in France at the moment, with the one-year old daughter of Mrs. Potter, Gingersnap Weasley.

LETTER UNPOSTED, YET RECEIVED, two months later.

Dearest Harry,

It still seems a dream, doesn't it? I don't know about you, but sometimes I wake up at night ready to scream as I used to or cry from the memory of a life left far behind in ashes...but you're there, next to me, to comfort and hold me, exactly as your vows said. You've promised me a world of love and security and safety, and you've lept your promise. You've given me light and love and hope. You've cared for me and Ginger as if she were your own child. Suggesting that we name her your child...that was a stroke of brilliance on your part. You've no idea how much that means to me. tha you would take your enemy's daughter as your own without prejudice or hesitation...I cry just thinking about it. You're the only one (besides Ginger) who can make me laugh and cry with the same emotion that I though to be buried away forever. I am happy with you, Harry. Mrs. Potter suits me just fine. I love you, I always have and always will.

Your Loving Wife, Ginny.
