6 Months Later
"Ginny, come on, wake up. Ginny! GINNY WAKE UP!"
Ginny was rudely awakened by her mother. "Mom! What do you want?"
"Come on, get up. Remember you invited Hermione, Angelina, Katie, and I to come over and help fix up the nursery. We've been waiting for you for about 30 minutes."
"Oh my gosh Mom! I'm so sorry! I totally forgot," responded Ginny.
"Okay, well hurry up and get dressed."
Ginny got up quickly and stared at herself in the mirror. Her stomach was extremely large now. She was due in about 2 ½ months. She patted her stomach gently and could feel her daughter kicking. She looked back in the mirror. Her hair was sticking out everywhere; she wasn't exactly the "morning person" type. That's when she noticed her eyes. They looked so…lifeless. It was like they were drowning in sorrow. They had been like that ever since Harry had died, but she never had really paid attention to it. "Oh, Harry…" she thought. Memories started flooding back to her. "Now isn't a good time to think of him," she reasoned with herself. She tried to ease the memories out of her mind, but it was too late.
Flashback
Harry and Ginny were sitting in the Gryffindor common room late one night because they both had had nightmares about Voldemort.
"Well, I'm gonna go back to sleep," Harry whispered in Ginny's ear after about an hour of talking.
"Okay, good night Harry."
"You too Ginny," Harry replied.
Harry started making his way to the boys' dormitories, when Ginny grabbed him and turned him around. "Wha-," Harry started to say, but was cut off by Ginny who had planted a kiss on his lips. It was filled with intense passion. Harry deepened the kiss after he finally realized what was happening. They broke off after a minute, both panting.
"I'm so sorry Harry; I just like you a lot. And it's alright if you don't like me, I-," but this time, she was interrupted by Harry, who gave her a kiss.
End Flashback
Ginny had a small smile on her face. That was the night they both declared their love for each other and started going out. Ginny snapped out of her thoughts and looked and the time. It had already been 20 minutes since her mom woke her up and she still wasn't ready. She threw on some clothes, and did a quick spell for her hair and make-up. With that finished, she ran downstairs to meet her mom and friends.
"Sorry everyone about that," Ginny told Hermione, Molly, Katie, and Angelina.
"That's alright," Hermione consoled her, "Now, how about we start on that room?"
"Sounds great."
They all ran upstairs with paint, brushes, rollers, and wallpaper in their hands.
…
After hours of work, they were finally done with Faith's room. They all stepped back and looked at their work.
"Wow, it's beautiful," Ginny told the others.
"Yea, it is," they all agreed.
It was definitely gorgeous. They had painted it light, light pink, with a border around the top of the room with flowers on it. There was a crib in one corner of the room with a baby mobile (A/N: That's what they're called right? The little spinning things above cribs?) hanging right above it. Right next to the crib was a rocking chair. On the other side of the room was a dresser filled with baby clothes. Molly had already made sure Ginny had enough clothes for the baby. There were toys for the baby also.
"Thanks for your help guys," Ginny said, breaking the silence,
"Oh, you're welcome Ginny. Now how about we go in the kitchen and I'll make dinner," Molly announced to the group.
"Okay," the rest of them said.
They followed her to the kitchen where she prepared a fantastic dinner. This was unfortunately, Harry's favorite meal, steak.
Ginny tried to contain herself, but she let a tear slip. Before long, she was bawling. Everyone ran over to comfort her. "What's wrong Ginny?" they all questioned. "It's no big deal; I guess I'm just a little too emotional."
"Well what is Gin?"
"This sounds really dumb to be crying about, but steak was Harry's favorite thing to eat…" and with that she started crying harder.
"Oh we're so sorry." They all gave her a big hug. "Oh, hunny, I wish I knew before I started cooking dinner. I know it's hard to deal with his death, but we're all here for you right girls?" Molly said in a motherly tone. "Yea Gin, we're all here for you if you ever need to talk about it."
"Thanks everyone. Now how about we eat dinner?" Ginny asked them.
"Okay"
The rest of the night they all stayed up talking about girl things, having a great time. When they left, Ginny started to watch a movie, the Notebook (A/N: Yes, she has a TV….and I LOVE the notebook….). It made her cry and think about Harry. The two lovers looked like them at their age. (A/N: If you haven't seen the Notebook, you need to!) They were hopelessly devoted to each other, and would do anything for each other. They were young, and spent all their time with each other; growing to learn together, and love together. When the movie was over, she went to sleep, thinking about Harry and how much she missed him…
TBC!
