Hey every one this is the last re-posted chapter, every chapter this will be bran new! So get the word out, this story is back on it's feet!
By 7 a.m every one in the Grifian Manor was awake. Mrs. Weasely had been the first to wake up and was not so surprise to fine Harry and Scarlet awake already. Mrs. Weasely fussed over Scarlet. Making sure she was alright and okay to be up and about. Harry had the sneaky suspicion that Scarlet would soon become a Weasley. Harry and Scalret both helped her set up and soon every one joined them in the living room which had the Christmas tree and loads upon loads of gifts underneath it.
Every one was very kind to Scarlet, surprisingly Ron was the nicest he seemed to taken up the big brother role with her. Harry could not wait to tell his friends later that Scarlet was the Heir of Slytherin. Harry sat on the floor with Jason, Anne, Hali and Chris helping them all open their gifts.
Hali was ecstatic with joy when she saw her broom, she begged Harry to take her out But because Harry was busy Charlie promised to take her out in the afternoon.
Mrs. Weasley almost had a heart attack when she opened Harry's gift. It was a necklace with Pearls, 13 Pearls to be exact. One for every one of her children, including Harry and Hermione, one for each of her grandchildren including Chris and one for Hali. "And then," said Harry "every time another child is born another Pearl will appear." Mrs. Weasely gathered him in a huge hug.
Every one enjoyed their gifts, though Harry still had not given his to Ginny. It sat in his pants pocket. After every one was done opening their gifts they all gathered into the dinning room for breakfast. Harry hung back with Ginny. Unbeknown to either of them was that James and Mrs.Weasley where listing at the door with a pair of the twins extendable ears.
"Merry Christmas Ginny" he said nervously.
"Merry Christmas Harry," she said with a warm smile.
"I have your gift," he said.
"Oh Harry you did not need to get me anything" she said truthfully.
"I know that Gin, but I want to give this to you" he said taking a small black box out of his pocket. He opened the lid to reveal a simple gold ring with an emerald on top.
"Harry" she said nervously. "Gin I was in my parents vault a couple days ago when I found this. It was my mother promise ring. I want you to have it Ginny. She left it to me to give to who I loved and Ginny I love you. You make me feel more then any one else has ever made me. You make me laugh and smile. You make my heart happier then any one else. I know we are young Ginny and I am not asking you to marry me, not until I get rid of Voldemort but I want you to know that you will always have my heart. No mater what happens Ginny know you will always have my heart." he finished taking the ring out of the box and slipping it on to her finger, a perfect fit.

Out side the door James and Molly listened to their children. James smiled to himself remembering the day he had given Lily that promise ring. It had been a family heirloom that he had found in his parents vault. He could not be happier that his son was giving it to the girl that he loved, the girl that reminded him so much of his wife.
"You have a good boy James" said Mrs. Weasley taking James by the arm to lead him to the kitchen. "Yes I do" said James. "And I thank you for that."
"Me" said Molly. "Yes," replied James. " I know you have been a mother to him, I can tell by the way he looks at you Molly and I thank you."
Mrs. Weasely smiled, tears in her eyes. "I will always think of him as a son James. And I can't wait for the day when him and my daughter get married" she said with a wishful smile. James could not help but laugh at seeing how this woman was probably already planning out his son's wedding.

Ginny launched herself at Harry, her lips locking on to his. The stayed together for several moments till Harry pulled them apart for air.
"Harry thank you. I love you as well. My gift is not as big but here," she said pulling out a package from under a chair. Harry smiled and ripped off the wrapping to reveal a beautiful photo album. On the front was a picture of Ginny, Jason, Anne and himself. He opened the book to find it filled with pictures of his family, of his friends. "I got them from people around school. I hope you like it" said Ginny. "I love it" said Harry kissing her. "I absolutely love it!"

The couple went down to the dinning hall for breakfast. For once Mrs. Weasley let Dobby and Winky take care of everything and sat back and let herself relax.
Ginny and Harry both took a seat, Ginny's hand, the one with the ring was on the table. The first to notice was the ever canful Ron who had been shoving a biscuit into his mouth at the time. He noticed the ring and started to choke, and I mean he really did start to choke.
"Ron," said Ginny worried. "Guys, he's choking" yelled Ginny as her brother started to turn blue. Bill who was sitting closes to Ron, started to his brother on the back until he stopped choking.
"Ron, are you alright," asked Harry totally innocently.
But Ron did not hear Harry because he jumped across the table and grabbed Harry and Ginny into a hug. "We are going to be brother in laws" yelled Ron happily.
Every one looked at Harry and Ginny. Ginny held up her hand,
"You prat, it's a promise ring" said Ginny. Ron stopped dancing, "oh, well I'm still happy about it." Every one shuck their heads and continued with their breakfast.
After Charlie took Hali flying. While every one else partied inside. Harry stayed with Ginny the whole day, he never noticed his father's hazel eyes following him around.

James was enjoying this Christmas. He was playing with Anne, Jason and Chris with Sirius and Remus. But James could not keep his eyes off of his son. He could not believe what he had learned for Siris. That his son was actually wearing concealment charms. His son had been through so much, James just wished he had been there, been there to protect his son. He also wished to meet the elves, he wanted to thank them for saving his son.
