Harry was very happy and content with his new life; That is, until one day Moony came by for one of his visits; he had some news that wouldn't make Harry very happy.

"Harry, They are going to be reading Sirius's will this afternoon, and your presence is requested." Harry was confused. He already had the money. When he pointed this out to professor Lupin, he shook his head. "Harry, that was just Sirius's vault. He was the last of his family line so the Black family vault has even more fortune in it. His was just automatically transferred to yours. You're already one of the richest wizards in the world. I have a feeling that after the will, you will be wealthier than even the Malfoys.

Harry couldn't believe it. He wondered just how rich the Blacks had been. "Hermione, Ginny, and Ron are also included in the will, so they will need to come as well." Remus said.

As everyone prepared to use a portkey to get to the ministry of magic, Harry was nervous. He didn't want to go through with this, but knew he had to get it out of the way.

As he felt himself leaving Privet Drive, Ginny grasped his hand. Even though they were together now, he couldn't help the butterflies he still got in his stomach whenever she touched him. They soon landed in the Ministry of Magic, and Harry saw a short man coming their way.

"Ahh- Mr. Potter, I presume?" the man shook his hand " I am Mr. Morrison and I will be presenting the will. Now, right this way. Your party is waiting for you."

He led them into a Hall right off the main room. Already there were Tonks, Kingsley, Moody, Dumbledore, all of the Weasleys, and Cornelius Fudge himself. Fudge glared over at Harry before saying, " Attention everyone. I would like to announce that Sirius Black has been proved innocent, and his name is cleared." He chanced a look over at Harry who was glaring just as hard back. " It will be in the paper tomorrow. Good day." he said quickly before turning and leaving the room.

Mr. Morrison said, " Come sit, it is time for the will to be read. When he picked up a piece of paper, Harry expected him to start reading, but he tapped the paper with his wand and a full sized Sirius emerged from the paper, looking rather like a hologram. Harry was shocked. He couldn't take his eyes away from Sirius if he wanted to. He definitely wasn't ready when he spoke.

" Hello", the figure of Sirius said. " If I am reading this, then I am dead, probably from business with the order. The last time I updated this was near the end of Harry's fifth year, so if we don't get a chance to talk Harry, there's something I want you to know. Your father was not a bad person. Just like many other teenage boys your age, he was err- not the most respectful young man. But He came around in his 7th year. That's why your mother feel in love with him. They really were the best parents you ever could have had and they loved you more than anything. I just wish you could have known them.

"Now, onto business. Seeing as there is so much to divide up, I'll make this easy. For Remus my friend, I leave you 200,000 galleons, to use anyway you like, and you are welcome to stay at Grimmald place whenever you like.

"To the Mr. and Mrs. Weasley, I leave 100,000 Galleons, and you are also welcome to Headquarters whenever, and Molly, you can't refuse. It's already don't and moved into your vault." Mrs. Weasley looked thoughtful at this, thought Harry knew that she wouldn't have taken the money if she didn't have to.

" To Ron, Hermione, Fred, George, and Kingsley, I leave 25,000 galleons. To my cousin Nymphondra," - Tonks made a face- " I leave 50,000 galleons. I will also donate 100,000 galleons to the order. I believe that leaves about 3 million Galleons and all of the other belongings in my family vault to Harry. He will also receive Grimmald place, and my other houses in London, Rome, Italy, America, and Paris. I do wish that you wont dwell on my death, Harry. Just know that I Love you and Remus and I want you two to take care of each other. Oh and Find yourself a girl, Harry." He said slightly quieter " Ginny Weasley is a great catch. Don't let her get away." before saying, " Remember I love you Harry. I always will."

The Hologram folded up into the paper, and every one looked at Harry. He had tears flowing down his face, but he didn't care if everyone saw. Just being able to see Sirius one last time was enough.

When back at privet Drive, Harry collapsed onto his bed. He didn't feel like facing the world right now. Just then, professor Lupin came into the room.

"Harry-" but he couldn't find any words to say, so the two of them just sat in silence, tears silent tears running down both of their faces. They stayed like that for a long time.

The next morning, Harry awoke, only to remember the pain from yesterday. As he got out of bed, the daily prophet landed on the bed. On the front of the paper was a picture of Sirius with the headline, "SIRIUS BLACK CLEARED OF ALL CHARGES"

Harry had almost forgotten about that. This brought a smile to his face. This wouldn't have mad Sirius happy. He entered the kitchen to find Ron, Hermione and Ginny already sitting there. She came up and gave him a kiss, which made Ron cringe. "Are you alright, Harry?" Ginny asked. Harry, who hadn't been expecting the kiss, ( they had only kissed twice before) answered, " I am now…."

Ron glared at him but Ginny wasn't discouraged, and leaned over to kiss him again, but Ron stopped them. "At least let me leave the room first. I'm glad for you but there's just some things a big brother shouldn't have to see. And to think… you aren't planning on telling anyone…I don't know how you'll do it if you keep this up!"

Ginny and Harry were becoming very close. Harry knew he loved her, and knew he needed to tell her before the war began. True, he hadn't known for long, but he knew he would die for her, and didn't want Voldermort to ever find that out. He decided that the sooner he told her, the better.

"Ginny, can we take a walk?" She smiled sweetly and nodded. "Sure Harry."

Harry began to walk to the park, holding hands with Ginny, wondering how he was going to tell her. " Ginny, you know you're special to me, but I don't have a very good chance of coming out of this war alive, and you could get hurt too. I couldn't live with myself if you died because of me. If you want to back out now, I'll understand"

Ginny looked at him in disbelief. " Harry I would never do that to you. If you think I'm going to back out just like that-" She broke off, tears welling up in her eyes. That was just the answer that Harry was looking for. He pulled her close.

"I'm sorry, Harry. I must look a mess." She wiped her eyes and shook her head. Harry couldn't disagree more. "Gin, you're beautiful." He leaned over and kissed her she was a little shocked but pleased, so she soon began to kiss back. Soon they were absorbed in each other, neither of them able to break away from their passionate kiss.

Finally, when they needed to come up for air, Harry knew he couldn't stand it anymore for her not to know that he was madly in love with her. Ginny began to get up, but Harry pulled her down. "There's something I need to tell you." Ginny's face fell slightly, as if she was expecting something bad.

"Ginny, I-" he didn't feel like going on. He wasn't very good at expressing love-

"I love you. More that words can say." Ginny looked shocked. " I- I," She stopped, and Harry's heart plummeted through his chest. She didn't love him. He knew It. She would never love him-

"You don't know how long I've waited for you to say that. Harry I love you too," She said smiling. Harry couldn't believe his luck. All of a sudden, Ginny's necklace lit up. Harry and Ginny just stared at it as it as the ruby changed into the shape of a tiger and the emerald turned into a phoenix.

Harry's mouth dropped open. Could he be Ginny's soul mate? Ginny looked mildly surprised, but Harry had never told her what it meant.

"Err- Ginny. This necklace, it lights up and changes forms when you are near your soul mate." Ginny's mouth dropped open.

"Well, I knew that I've loved you since I was 10 but this- Were only teenagers!"

She still looked pleased, despite the shock. "This is great Harry! No one knows this but I dreamed of you before I even met you."

Harry was excited, but just like their relationship, they promised to keep it a secret. "This would also explain the glowing when we were at the Burrow. When you fight near your soul mate, your power increases and you glow. I'm guessing Dumbledore knew all along."

Harry was once again shocked. He knew he would never let Ginny go, especially now. He would kill Voldermort. He had to, so he could happily spend the rest of his life with Ginny Weasley.

"Come on Harry, lets go back up to the house. We wouldn't want Hermione and Ron to this we were up to no good.." She said mischievously.

AN: once again, sorry it took so long. Be sure to review!
