Jelly Knees and Killer Smiles
 

Ginny blanked out for a split second. 'Right'  she thought coming back from her shocked state.

If her heart gave a 'jolt' seeing her brothers, it was practically doing gymnastics now, hell, it was all she could do to not blush, but thankfully she had mastered the act of not blushing on command and it was well useful in times like this, but still, he caught her unaware. 

She hadn't expected to see Harry so soon; she didn't think he would be arriving until later just in time for dinner.  'Now Ginny,  calm yourself' she told herself.  And at that Harry raised his eyebrows and gave her a smile.  'Damn that smile of his!!' 

" Hey Gin!"  Harry said while opening his arms for a hug.  A big grin plastered on his face.  Having liked catching Ginny off guard.

'Why in gods name are you still sitting down while Harry is in front of you and holding his arms out at that!!!?' 

 'Right' she thought snapping out of her trance.

She got up and hugged him tight.  She smiled brightly at him and he did the same enveloping her in a very warm embrace.  She hoped that he didn't feel her heart slamming against her rib cage at the contact, but she was only human and not responsible for any internal organs beating in an unfashionable rate.  Oh how she wished she could have this all the time.  She sighed inwardly and thought that what she and Harry had at the present time was for the best.  'But none of that now', she thought, but made a mental note to go for a walk later and sort out things which seem to pop up every time Harry Potter was within the mile radius. 

"Harry! I didn't expect to see you until tonight" Finally breaking the hug, and looking up at the too familiar face she has envisioned in her dreams since as far as she could remember.

Harry let go with a curious look on his face, he shook it off and answered the red head. "Well, yeah, I thought I would come early and help out."

Ginny gave him a smile

"Harry are you O.K?"  Ginny asked catching the look on Harry's face

"Err…yah, I'm fine Gin."  He lied, Harry had the weirdest sensation in his stomach when they broke apart, and for the life of him he couldn't place it.  'But none of that now' he thought, but he did make a mental note to go for a walk later and sort this new found feeling he had with in him. 

"Just a bit hungry I'm afraid," he added with a smile that turned Ginny's knees into mush.  Ginny of course, used to this by now, stood her ground and didn't move until she got her legs back.  "Well, I know one person that can fix that for you Harry" she answered back to him, giving him her own version of 'make-you-weak-in-the-knees-smile' she just hoped it worked. 

Harry froze on the spot not knowing what had happened.  The hunger must really be getting to him for his legs turned into jelly, or at least he thought it did.

As if on cue Molly walked in muttering something under her breath, Ginny only heard a few words consisting of "never grow up" and "impossible".  She spotted Harry and beamed up at him, she always considered him as one of her own.  Harry has always been treated as one of the Weasley boys, which was a good thing of course because the Weasleys' was as close to a family Harry had but it only meant that Harry wouldn't see Ginny as anything but a sister.

 'Not now Ginny!'  She told herself.

"Harry! How wonderful to see you dear!"  Molly said with open arms.

As Harry went to hug the eldest female Weasley they heard a thundering crash coming from outside.  Molly paused mid hug closed her eyes and opened them again in frustration.  Ginny peaked outside only to see that Fred and George were taking up after their older brothers.  Both wands out pointing to the air above them, two wooden tables were hanging mid air and apparently waiting to be smashed by the other.  Other table remnants were strewn all over the front yard.  Ginny stifled a laugh; she caught Harry's eyes only to see that he too saw what was happening.  Molly on the other hand looked torn between staying and welcoming the newly arrived guest or going out side and banging the twins' head together not unlike the fashion in which the tables were being treated. 

She stayed. 

"Mum, Harry here is feeling a bit hungry." She said to her mum.

"Oh, yes of course.  What would you like Harry dear? I thought you wouldn't be here until later?"

"I thought I would help out Mrs. W." He answered back

"I got off early and came straight here from training.  Mad-eye thought I deserved a bit of a break."  He added with a laugh. 

Since his graduation from Hogwarts, Harry had been inducted to the Order and been in training as an Auror for the Ministry, under the fine teachings of Professor Dumbledore, Mad-eye Moody and of course, the rest of the Order.  The Ministry of Magic and the Order of the Phoenix had long been working together to keep an eye out for Dark Magic and of course any traces of Voldemort since fifth year.  Although he was destroyed just last year, by no other than Harry, people in the wizarding world could not help but keep their guard up still.  After all they all thought he was gone for such a long time right?  The wizarding world only started to be happy again, lives were lost, but many lives were also saved because of the alliance formed to fight the Dark side. 

"Oh good good! I hope they're not working you too hard, you know!"  Molly said while ordering the knives with a flick of her wand to cut up the potatoes.  " Arthur and I saw them at the Ministry party couple weeks ago" now addressing Ginny "that was fun wasn't it Harry?"  Molly asked him

"Err… yah, it was" Harry replied back, he lied; he only went because Dumbledore requested his presence and he couldn't flat out refuse the man.  So he endured the night of people ogling at him and talking about what he's done and his potential, blah blah blah.  It was all the same.  Harry had become even more famous than when he was just wee baby, if that feat was even possible.  That's why it was so good for him to be back with his family, just them, no strangers.  He looked at Ginny, who was to his delight already looking at him.  Ginny gave him a weak smile and turned quickly away. 

'Arhhhh… he caught me! Why Ginny??? Why must you be caught like that!'  She berated herself.

"Here you go dear" Molly said while giving Harry a plate of steaming potatoes and corn with a slice of fried chicken.  Harry looked positively cute when he was hungry. 

"How about you Ginny?" her mum asked

"Huh? Oh no mum that's quite alright thanks, I think I'll go outside" with that Ginny made way to go to the door, but not before they heard another thundering clash of wood.

"On the contrary, I think it will be safer to stay here." Ginny added

"Oh those brother of yours! Where is your father??!!" Molly said while excusing herself from an eating Harry and making her way outside no doubt to yell at the twins. 

Harry and her were alone.  Was he smiling at her or was his mouth just full of potatoes and corn? 

"I think you might want to chew first Harry."  She said smiling.

Harry just looked at her, making her self conscious that she had something on her face that wasn't supposed to be there, she brought her hand to her reddening face and said "What? Do I something on my face or something?"

'Gee Gin, for someone who can control her blush, you're doing a very cruddy job of it now you know?'  She asked herself.

"Umm Harry?" she asked getting worried, he still hadn't moved.

Harry just stared at her, not having a reason, well except that she was really pretty to look at.  'Whoa!!  What? Did I just think what I just thought I thought?'  He asked himself almost choking on the mouthful of corn he stuffed in his mouth before he looked at the way the light caught Ginny.

'Answer her you fool'! His conscience snapped back at him.

"Oh no, no, I just thought how nice your hair grew, that's all, it's really long."  He could've slapped himself silly.

 'What kind of answer was that?' he asked himself, 'A really stupid one' he then answered back.

"Right, thanks Harry."  Ginny said smiling at the compliment.  Did she mention she loved her hair?

"So how have you been?" she asked

"I've been good, just working basically, how about you? I heard from Ron that you were promoted to junior editor?"  He asked getting some of his senses back.

 'Why did he not have it in the first place?' he asked himself.

Ginny and Harry sat talking until he had finished eating, catching up on what they have been up to.  The twins came in and said their greetings, until they were ushered by Mr. Weasley to go outside and start helping on the set up for tonight events before Mrs. Weasley started yelling again. 

Ginny felt better having gotten control of her nerves, oblivious to the fact that she wasn't the only one.  Harry had more to think about on his walk than he had expected.
