A/N
This will be Christmas Eve at Hogwarts.
Because of certain circumstances Harry isn't allowed to leave Hogwarts so late Christmas Eve so the Weasly's are all spending it at Hogwarts with him.
I never quite figured out why they say Happy Christmas instead of Merry Christmas so if I don't do that forgive me.

Christmas Eve"When is you're family getting here?" Harry asked Ron when they woke up the next morning.
"Not until around 10 tonight." Ron began, "And they're your family too."
"Why so late?" Harry asked ignoring Ron's second statement.
"Because mom and dad have order stuff to do…the twins store is staying open until 9:30 for the Christmas rush and I'm not sure about the others." Ron thought out loud.
"Are Lee and Katie coming up?" Harry asked.
"Don't know." Ron replied.
"Are the twins bringing Alicia and Angelina?" Harry continued.
"Yep." Ron said.
"Okay, what about Bill and Charlie are they bringing Fleur and Melly?" Harry continued.
"Bill is bringing Fleur and I'm not sure about Melly, why are you so curious?" Ron asked.
"No reason, but if Ginny asks where I am tell her I'll be back at lunch." Harry called as he went through the portrait hole.
--
"Where's Harry?" Ginny asked when her and Hermione came downstairs an hour later.
"Don't know." Ron said.
"Sure you don't." Hermione said sarcastically sitting next to him.
"I'm serious, he asked all these weird questions then said he'd be back at lunch before he took off out the portrait hole." Ron explained.
"What kind of weird questions?" Ginny asked curiosity peaked.
"He asked who was going to be her tonight, why they were coming late, what time they were coming…" Ron trailed off.
"He didn't?" Hermione and Ginny exclaimed at the same time.
"What am I missing here?" Ron asked.
"He's not supposed to leave school property." Hermione wailed.
"I'm, going to kill him!" Ginny yelled.
"What am I missing here?" Ron screamed over both of them.
"Harry's gone to Hogsmeade for Christmas presents." They both said standing up.
"Where are you going?" Ron asked.
"We're going after him." Ginny said.
"No way." Ron said standing in front of the portrait hole.
"Get out of the way Ronald." Hermione said at the same time Ginny screeched, "Move."
"No," Ron said.
They both drew their wands. Ron quickly blocked both spells launching pertrificus totalus at both of them. The two fell over immediately both trying to speak but unable to because of Ron's jinx.
"Sorry." Ron said shrugging before sitting down with Quidditch Through the Ages.
--
"What's going on?" Harry asked when he came through the portrait hole 2 hours later to see the girls under the full body bind.
"They figured out where you went how I'm not sure, then they tried to follow you but I stopped them." Ron said.
"Finite Incantatum." Harry said waving his hand over the girls.
"Harry!" Hermione yelled at the same time Ginny jumped up slapping him full across the face and then kissing him hard on the lips.
"What was that for?" Harry asked indignantly rubbing his face.
"You scared the crap out of me." Ginny said sobbing.
"I'm fine." Harry said taking her in his arms, "I'm fine."
"I know but you left, you weren't even allowed to go home for Christmas and you decide to run out of the castle by yourself not telling anyone where you were going." Ginny sobbed into his chest.
"Listen Ginny I'm fine and I had to get your present somehow didn't I?" Harry asked.
"Harry don't I was scared shitless." Ginny said the seriousness in her voice scaring Harry.
"Let's go for a walk." Harry said helping Ginny to her feet as they had both fell over when she began to cry.
Ginny nodded and heard in the distance Harry telling Ron and Hermione something.
--
"Ginny I'm really sorry, I honestly didn't think about what would happen once you found out I didn't mean to scare you." Harry said once they were seated under a tree by the lake.
"I know you didn't think and I know you didn't mean to scare me but when I found you had left and then Ron wouldn't let me leave I was there worrying about all the different things that could have happened to you and I couldn't move, I was helpless. I didn't want you to get hurt I love you." Ginny said quietly.
"I love you too." Harry said pulling her into his arms and they just sat there for what felt like eternity.
--
"How could you do that?" Hermione yelled at Ron.
"Listen I couldn't let you go after him." Ron started.
"Why not?" Hermione asked.
"He's my best friend and I knew he didn't want you there when he was trying to buy your Christmas presents." Ron explained.
"So you left Ginny and me here exhausted with worry well you sat there reading?" Hermione asked.
"You don't think I was worried? You don't think that I knew it would be my fault if something happened to him? I was probably more worried than the both of you put together because I knew it would be my fault. Three different times I almost released you two and went after him myself because I was so worried but I didn't." Ron yelled.
"Oh." Hermione said sitting.
"I knew that if he was hurt it would be my fault and for the life of me I couldn't figure out why I didn't go after him." Ron said quietly now.
"Because you couldn't bear the fact that if you got there and he was hurt you would be the one to find him." Hermione said going to sit on his lap gently.
"How did you?" Ron asked.
"It just made sense." Hermione said putting a hand on his shoulder.
"I…" Ron began.
"Shh, I understand." Hermione said putting a hand over his mouth, "You don't have to apologize."
Ron nodded and Hermione leaned into him and they just sat there quietly in a comfortable silence.
--
"What are you doing with our dear brother?" Charlie asked as him Melly, Bill, and Fleur entered the common room.
"Oh my god." Hermione screeched jumping off of Ron who swore loudly.
"Happy Christmas." Fleur said in greeting.
"Happy Christmas." Melly agreed sitting next Hermione on the couch.
"Ya, ya." Ron mumbled.
"Where's Gin Gin?" Bill asked laughing.
"Outside…" Ron began.
"Doing some school work under the tree in the back." Hermione said quickly cutting off Ron.
Charlie and Bill look at them suspiciously before beginning a conversation.
--
"We should go in." Ginny said.
"Is that Bill and Charlie?" Harry asked squinting into the distance.
"Oh my god it is." Ginny squealed rushing behind a tree.
"Ginny they're going to find out eventually." Harry said dragging her out from behind the tree as her brothers disappeared from view.
"Not before mom." Ginny said, "we agreed she'd be the first to find out."
"I know, I know." Harry said putting his arm around her and walking to wards the castle.
"Harry, no." Ginny said sliding out from underneath his arm.
"What? I'm not allowed to put my arm around you now?" Harry asked indignantly.
"Not with my brothers here!" Ginny yelled.
"Fine." Harry said walking away slightly.
"Harry." Ginny called chasing him.
"Stay away." Harry said playfully.
"Harry. I'll get you." Ginny called and they took off Ginny eventually latching onto him, they fell to the ground Ginny on top of Harry, both panting.
"Hello." Harry said slyly.
"Hi…" Ginny breathed.
"We should go…" Harry trailed.
"Not yet." Ginny said kissing him slowly.
"So much for stealth." Harry said when they pulled apart for air.
"Hey!" Ginny said slapping him.
"Let's go in." Harry began, "Hermione and Ron do know where we are."
"I know." Ginny said getting up slowly then reaching a hand to help Harry up.
"Thanks." Harry said taking her hand but instead of getting up he pulled her down and then got up around her, "That's for tackling me."
"Harry!" Ginny called as he walked away, she got up and chased him taking his hand letting him lead her to the castle.
--
"Where were you?" Bill asked when Harry walked into the common room.
"Library." Harry said sitting down.
Everyone looked up as Ginny walked through the portrait hole.
"Hey Gin-Gin." Charlie said getting up and hugging her.
"Hey little sis." Bill said hugging her as well.
"Happy Christmas." Fleur and Melly said together.
"Happy Christmas and hello." Ginny said sitting next to Melly.
For the next 20 minutes Ginny was engaged in a conversation with Melly and Fleur while Hermione conversed with the boys.
"I'm hungry." Bill announced standing up.
"Me too." Ron agreed.
"Same." Charlie said.
"We need some food." Harry voiced.
"Boys." All four girls said leading the way out of the common room.

Later on at around 10:00 the Hogwarts bound family (Weasley's) plus Harry, Melly, Fleur, Remus, Severus, Albus, Minerva, Tonks, Moody, Hermione, Neville, Mrs.Longbottom, Mr.Lovegood, Luna, Angelina, Katie, Alicia, and Lee were all in the Gryffindor common room. They were talking, laughing, and generally having fun but it was time for Harry and Ginny to make a stand…Ginny of course didn't know this.
"Excuse me." Harry said standing up. No one listened.
"EXCUSE ME." Harry said louder and everyone jumped and turned to him.
"I need to say something to Mr and Mrs.Weasley but I want everyone else to hear as well." Harry began.
"What is it Harry? Are you okay?" Mrs.Weasley asked worriedly.
"I'm fine, in fact I'm better than fine because I just realized something I should've realized a long time ago. For four years I ignored someone I now wish I hadn't because then maybe this would have happened a long time ago. I've saved her life and even though she doesn't realize it she has inadvertently saved mine too. Without her I would have no chance of defeating Voldemort, which for those of you who didn't already know this is my job and my job alone. She means so much to me, and I hope you all can accept this. I don't want any death threats from certain people in the room so when I tell you this please be prepared. Mr and Mrs. Weasley I ask for your blessings to date your daughter because I love her very much and I hope that she loves me too." Harry finished.
"You have mine." Mrs. Weasley said.
"And mine too, but I have one thing to say…it's about time." Mr. Weasley announced and Harry and Ginny blushed while the rest of the room – minus Snape – laughed aloud.
"Harry may we have a word?" Fred asked.
"It is very important," George said.
"That we talk to you," Fred added.
"About a very," George continued.
"Pressing matter." Fred finished.
"My brother Feorge,"
"And my brother Gred,"
"Well the both of us,"
"Would like to,"
"Warn you,"
"That should you,"
"Hurt our sister,"
"We will,"
"Hurt you." They both finished.
"This is exactly what I meant when I said no threats." Harry said rolling his eyes.
A/N
This has become less of fluff, even though it's in there.
I did this because as my friends say, "You are a hard core drama writer the romance just doesn't work for you."
And I couldn't help myself 'cause I think they're right.
LOL
Review plz good or bad, preferably good.
