Chapter One- Stepping Outside the Box
Ginny was disappointed to see the summer go, for it had been magical. There was only two weeks left before she moved to America, to start her training as a new chaser on the American Quidditch Team, the American Yankees.(A/N: sorry crappy name, I know, but I couldn't think of anything.) She was nervous about venturing out on her own, but excited. She was excited to see who her new roommate would be. (Ginny was supposed to share a small flat with one or two other teammates.)
"Ginny, you ready to leave? We were thinking of going to the Leaky Cauldron before going to the Burrow, is that alright?" Harry asked, as he walked over to her and put his arms around her. (Ginny had gotten together with Harry at the beginning of her seventh year, and moved into the flat that he, Ron, and Hermione shared for the summer.)
"Yeah, is everyone else ready?" Ginny asked, resting her head on his shoulder.
"They will be in a few minutes." Harry said, and then grinned suspiciously. "What should we do to occupy our time?" He asked, pulling her towards the bed.
She giggled and fell underneath him, onto the bed. After a few minutes of some serious snogging, Ginny whispered, "Harry...oh Harry, we have to stop."
"No, we don't." He said as he started kissing her neck. He always knew where her weak spots were.
'Damn it! Why does he do this to me?' Ginny thought to herself. "Yes we do. Ron and Hermione are waiting," and with that she pushed him off her.
The two left the room, hand in hand, with their fingers interlocked. When they reached the bottom of the stairs, they saw Hermione resting in Ron's lap, on the couch, just enjoying each other's company. (Hermione and Ron were engaged, and were so happy together.) 'I hope that some day, Harry and I are as happy as those two.' Ginny thought to herself, a bit envious of the happy couple. "Ready?'' Ron asked.
Ginny nodded.
Great, let's go." Hermione said, and apparated to Diagon Alley.
The other three were right behind her. Hermione appeared right in front of the Leaky Cauldron with Ron, Ginny, and Harry following her.
"Anyone up for a butterbeert? My treat." Harry said.
"Yeah, thanks mate," Ron replied, with a smile on his face.
After the four sat down at a table by a window, they started talking about Ginny's upcoming trip.
"Are you nervous?" Hermione asked.
"Yes, but I'm really excited. I can't wait to meet my teammates and roommate. The only bad thing is leaving you guys. I'm going to miss you so much." Ginny's eyes started tearing up, and with that, she got up and hugged each of her friends. "I think I'm going to miss you most of all," Ginny whispered in Harry's ear, and gave him a peck on the cheek.
After Ginny sat back down, she tried to lighten up the mood by changing the subject.
"So, have you two started making any plans for the wedding, yet?"
Ron looked at Hermione, his beloved soon-to-be bride, and silently told her, 'This is the time. We need to ask them.' She nodded in approval, and squeezed Ron's hand.
Ron cleared his throat, and gripped Hermione's hand a little tighter. "We want to ask you two if you would be the Maid of Honor, Ginny, and Harry, you be the Best Man. So, will you?"
Ginny's face lit up, and she squealed with delight. "Of course I will! Oh, what about you, Harry?"
"Definitely, I'd be honored." Harry stated.
Ginny beamed, "Oh, Hermione, I can't wait to start on the plans. I think we should get as much done as we can before I leave." Hermione agreed with her.
Harry looked at his watch. It was five till seven. "We should get going; we're due at the Burrow in a few minutes."
They each finished their butterbeer, got up and quickly apparated to the Burrow for dinner.
