Title: I will always love you

Authored by: Gail

Summary: When Ginny discovers she is pregnant with a miracle child (means no one knows how it happened) and then sees Harry proposing to someone, she runs away to America, what happens when about 5 yrs later poor unsuspecting Harry turns up there with Ginny's brother? Overused plot…I know, I like the characters. H/G, CW/OC

Rating: T for language, talking about sex, suggestions of abortion, etc.

A/N: I have gotten a lot of response for this story and I would like to say thanks to everyone for reading it and reviewing. I have just sent the next chapter of Hello Life to my beta, MariaMalfoyesq. and it will be up when she sends it back. I am going to include explanations of why Ginny left Harry and how she got pregnant(hope I figure that out!) in the story as it goes on. Harry will be the one doing the questioning so as he starts getting information about Vi and Lily's life, so will we. Keep Reading!

Chapter 4

"I wanted to talk to you about Lily's progress." The principal stated.

Ginny (Virginia) frowned, but nodded for the woman to continue.

"It isn't that Lily isn't being able to pick up concepts, in fact, she's ahead of her age group. She's very bright. But I am concerned about the amount of sleep she is getting. I've noticed that she gets drowsy at times, and today she fell asleep during class. Children this age need at least ten hours of sleep, I hope you know that."

"Yes, Mrs. Hammond, she's a little restless in the evenings, " Ginny lied, "We are working on getting her to bed early."

The gray haired woman nodded. "Another thing I needed to talk to you about was that Lily was disrespectful towards a teacher today. I don't understand, Lily is always very polite and well mannered, yet today she said things to him that I have never heard coming out of her mouth. Truthfully Miss Velley, I don't know what really happened. Mister Shier said he did not do anything to provoke such a response and would like you to talk to her, he would also like for you to meet with him as soon as possible. Are you free this Friday? Maybe you could speak to him for a few minutes when you come to pick Lily up?"

Virginia nodded, " I will do that Mrs. Hammond, please do not worry, I will definitely discuss these matters with Lily, thank you for everything."

The principal smiled kindly and showed Ginny out of the office, "Thank you Miss Velley, I'm sure everything will work out."

The drive back home was very quiet. Lily seemed to know what the meeting was about and was smart enough to stay silent and occupied herself by looking outside. Harry was very confused about the entire thing, but was wise enough to not say anything.

When they reached home Vi took her daughter into the child's room for a talk, while Harry joined Charlie and Gaurika in the living room. They could still hear the muffled sounds pf the mother and daughter's argument through the ceiling.

"Lily, what were you thinking? How many times have I told you to ignore it. It does not matter what they have to say. We both know you have a temper, but it's time that you start controlling it, we can't afford any accidental magic to happen, especially in a muggle environment."

"But Ma-a! He said all those bad things about you! I hate it when they do that. Our life is none of their business! Mum, I wish you never have to hear what he said, because I would do some "accidental magic" if he said something to you."

Harry looked at a photograph of a five month old Lily in the arms of a happy but tired Vi. It was taken in the living room. Harry could see the dark circles on Vi's pale face.

He turned to where Charlie and Gaurika were talking and asked, "Where's Lily's father?"

Gaurika seemed hesitant to speak but replied anyway, "He doesn't live with them. He doesn't know about Lily. Vi ran away from home when she got to know she was pregnant."

Charlie looked at her in surprise, "Shouldn't she at least let him know, I mean he is Lily's father!"

Gaurika shrugged, "She has her reasons. She thinks he would be happier without knowing."

"What about Lily?" Harry asked, "Shouldn't she be allowed to meet her father, well, unless he is a complete jerk."

"Well, Virginia has told Lily everything about her father. Who he is what he does, what he is like, she showed her all the photographs she has of him, and she's told her the reasons why she left. It seems that Lily understands what happened and doesn't blame Vi for her decisions."

"How did you and Virginia meet?"

"We met in this house. It really belonged to my Anatomy professor, Doctor Velley. He and his wife were friends of my family and had given me a room to stay while I studied at the University. When Ginny arrived in this town, she couldn't find a place to stay, so she hid in the shed behind the house for about six months. It had become harder to look for a job because she didn't have an address, plus no one was willing to give a single pregnant woman work. The food she lived on was what she could conjure. The lack of nutrition started eating on her strength and when she got caught in the rain one night, her immune system crashed and she got very sick. Luckily Doctor and Mrs. Velley found her in the shed the next day and brought her inside. They took care of her and gave her a place to stay. Gradually she became better, but Lily was still born prematurely by a month. She was so small. She scored a 3 on her first apgar test and a 5 on the second. She had to receive a bit of medical attention because of that. I remember how worried Vi was. She panicked and wouldn't let Lily out of her sight.

The hospital had taken other tests and the doctors decided that Lily was fine, except that she might be physically weak. We got her home and she was fine, then in her fourth month she caught flu somehow. I don't think Vi slept at all that time. After that everything seemed to become all right.

But it hadn't Lily was not even a year old when Doctor and Mrs. Velley passed away in a car crash. They left us the house, but we didn't have any money, especially since we had to pay off the hospital bills. I had not started earning much money at that point, so Vi had to shuffle three jobs and take care of Lily while I did my internship. Finally, when I realized how mad we were going I wrote to Dumbledore. He contacted Vi's grandfather, who sent us money. When we converted the galleons into dollars, it turned out to be quiet a large sum, we were able to pay the hospital bills and Vi opened the bakery with the rest."

Vi and Lily entered the room just as Gauri finished the story. It seemed that the talk had gone fine because Lily was once again chattering away.

II.

That night as Harry lay in bed thinking about what Gaurika had told him about Vi and Lily he heard slight whimpering from the room next to his. Getting out of bed, he put on his glasses and a glance across the room told him that Charlie was asleep. He slipped out of the room and opened the door to Lily's room slightly.

The girl lay in bed shaking. Sweat drops trickled down her face and coming closer he heard her murmur, "No please, not mum…please…daddy…save mum…" Tears were flowing heavily now and Harry decided to wake her. He shook the tiny body softly and Lily awoke looking at him in wonder, "Daddy? Is mum okay?"

The words tugged at his heart and he restrained himself from hugging her. Instead he brushed the hair from in front of her face and replied, "It's not your father Lily, it's me, Harry. Don't worry, your mother's okay, nothings happened."

The girl's face dropped, "Oh, okay, thank you Mister Potter. I am sorry if I disturbed you. I'll be fine now."

The light was switched on and both of them saw Vi standing at the door, "I heard something, so I came to check. What's wrong?" She said.

Lily shook her head, "Nothing mum. Just another nightmare. Mister Potter heard me and he came to see if I was alright."

Her mother nodded and smiled at softly at Harry, "Thank you Mister Potter."

Harry smiled back and replied, "It's no problem, and please call me Harry." Lily grinned at her mother from behind Harry as Virginia blushed and nodded. Harry's breath hitched at seeing the blush. He had to admit Virginia may have seemed attractive in the morning, but standing there in the middle of the night wearing a tank top and pajamas, blushing the way she was, Vi was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen. (a/n: awe isn't that fluffy? Okay, I'll go now!)

Lily cleared her throat to distract her parents who had been staring into each other's eyes looking all lovey-dovey. Harry and Vi jumped at the sound and blushed. Harry said his goodnights quickly after making sure Lily was fine and practically ran out of the room.

Vi came over and hugged her daughter, who held onto her tightly, both wondering why Harry hadn't said anything about the other woman in his life or anything about any children he may have.

Sarahmanda: No, Harry's never going to know about it. He's going to go back and live in England not knowing that Lily and Vi love him and they will just sit in the US and cry for the rest of their lives. No! I'm Kidding! He will have a little help later to realize who Vi and Lily really are. Remember, I ALWAYS believe in happy endings!
IamSiriusgrl- I have no clue who sent that email, they are stupid. Thank you for that compliment. ((blushes)) Lol, yes H/Hryucky!
Cows are my friends: Yup, meeting with the principal. There was a mean teacher, he deserves to be the victim of accidental magic, but it didn't happen. 
Sakura1221- Thanks! Keep reading!
Dfgh: Thank you!
Shadow- I already mentioned this in the fic, but I know we all skip over details so I am not offended. Okay, Ginny is a partial Metamorphagus. She's kept her hair, turned her eyes Green and changed the lower part of the face. Imagine someone you haven't seen for five years with different coloured eyes, and a very different nose, mouth and jaw line under a different name and you've been told that they re someone completely different. Would you really think it's the same person or would you accept them as who they are. Especially if Dumbledore told you. Besides none of Ginny's family would suspect that she ran away because she was pregnant. At least I don't think so.
Justty: Thanks! Happy endings always! Unless I am really unhappy or just in an exceedingly angsty mood.
Maddie- Lol, yes, the answers will come soon.
Christine:Thanks! Keep reading!
Emily- Thank you! Vi's not going to tell him. She has a few issues. But he'll be told by someone who has not entered the story yet. He will be mad, but he'll already be mad at the "father" which is, well, him, so he won't be able to stay mad at her. Lol. This story is like a soap opera.
Maryo1: Thank you! lol, yes, but our poor dense friends will get help from someone from the male gender.((gasp))
EmilyP- Thank you. I am glad you like my story.
Lollipop: Thanks! It'll take a few more chapters, but it's coming!
Tiggergirl112- Thank you!
Haydenrocks14: Thanks! You have assumed correctly, but that comes up in chapter 5.
Cherokee girl- Thanks! Hope you like this chapter!
HermioneRon4ever: Thanks! Yup, I will probably include an explanation soon.
Anabel28- Thanks! I want to write this story on my own, I don't want to go through the process of sending it to someone,
getting it back, seeing the changes and putting it up. Besides I'm never going into writing as a profession, it's just a hobby, so I don't want to take away all my time from other important stuff. But if someone doesn't like my writing, well, they should just not read the story instead of telling me that my stories sucked. Lol, I love Lily, she's my favourite character. Harry is not married, I am giving a bit of the next chapter away, but it's not really important. It'll come up again and he will explain why he never got married. Ginny looks different, which is one of the reasons Harry and Charlie don't recognize her. The second is that she left when she was 19, people tend to forget that anyone who has run away won't be the same age after 5 years. Both Harry and Charlie remember her as a 19 year old and the idea that she may have a child wouldn't have even entered their heads. It' somewhat like denial, except not really. Hope it clears up your question.
Annie: Hey! Lol. As Dumbledore said, "The magical world can be very mysterious, it is best if we do not try and solve all it's mysteries at once, instead try and solve them slowly." Harry and Charlie are not best friends. They are friends, but they've been sent to the states together to do some work for the order. At times you will see I have written, 'His best friends older brother' to refer to Charlie using Harry's relationship to him. Hermione and Ron are married and living in England, I think Charlie mentioned that at some point. They don't play a major role though. I am not abandoning Hello Life, I will finish it, well, unless I die or something very bad happens that is. Please curb your curiosity a bit for a bit. I will explain everything as the story is written. Hey, remember you asked me about the whole thing about the evidence for H/G shippers? Well, the author 'Ihateharryandhermioneshippers' has a lot of it in the profile. You might want to check it out. Keep reading!
