Disclosure: Amazing as it is, I still don't own Harry Potter.

A/n: Okay, don't flay me! I've been very busy lately trying to understand math. I've had this for awhile, I just haven't had to post it .I know some of you are wondering what happened in the last chapter. You will find out later on. Now on with the story.

House Hunt

Harry released a long suffering sigh. He had been in this chair for so long, both his legs had fallen asleep. His back was stiff and his stomach was complaining from neglect. It was all because of his wife. She was enjoying his pain, he just knew it. Not that Harry could see Ginny over all of the stacks of paper around them.

Harry and Ginny had been married for nine months and had been living in Harry's flat during that time. One day, Harry had come home to a shocking sight. The living rooms decor had changed drastically from what it had been that morning. The once creamy, white walls were now covered with pink Hippogriffs and blue strips. The couch and chair had been replaced with a baby's crib and a rocking chair. Stuffed animals were every where. Sitting in the middle of this mess was a sobbing Ginny.

Harry ran over to his wife and pulled her into a tight hug, trying to find out why she was so upset. All she would say was, "Not enough room!" After a cup of hot chocolate Harry found that it was Ginny's 'time of month' and during an irrational mood swing, had discovered that their flat did not provide enough room for raising a child. After a conversation, in which many tears were shed on Ginny's part, they decided to go house hunting.

Now here they were, surrounded by pictures of houses that weren't good enough for the still emotionally strained Ginny. Harry glared at the muggle women that was "helping" them. He had hired her to help make this easy, not to give them five more options for every one that was turned down. And there were many shot down. So many so, that Harry had formed an involuntary twitch each time one was rejected. The two women seemed to be getting more and more into the project as houses were shot down.

"How about this one? A small town home, away from the hustle and bustle of city life."

"No! It 's not close enough to the family." Like that mattered since they could apparate.

"Then this one? It is in the heart of London."

"Definitely not! That is much to close to Fred and George! They will use our children as guinie pigs!" Overreacting a tad, but that was a definite possibility when it came to the twins.

"Oh, here's a lovely home near a lake." the women said, a dreamy look in her eyes. Ginny joined in, most likely thinking of the Burrow and it's lake.

"That does sound nice. What do you think Harry?" Harry leaned over to get a better look. Finally a house his wife liked. When he saw the address, his face darkened.

"No," he said softly. "Not there." Ginny looked up, surprised.

"Why not?"

"To close to Malfoy. He'll murder our children in their beds." Ginny rolled her eyes.

"Honestly Harry. What would the ferret do? Give them poisonous candy?" Harry looked at her gravely.

"All he would have to do is look at them. His ugly mug would be enough to scare them to death."

Ginny and Harry sat on their couch, both feeling to depressed to say anything. They had looked all day but could not find the right house. They were about to get up ad go to bed when they heard the familiar cracking noise. It was Hermione. She wore a huge grin and was holding up a muggle newspaper. She had found a house.

Ginny smiled softly. "This is it."

Harry couldn't agree more. It was a beautiful brick home with a huge garden, although nothing would be there till spring. The house was surrounded by a forest, with a clearing a little ways away. Perfect for Quidditch. Harry smiled. There was a pond with a rope swing and swing near it. The house itself offered plenty of room for raising a family. Hand in hand, Ginny and Harry walked up the cobble steps to the house. They were home.

A/n: All done for now! Yay! I want to thank all of my reviewers and remember, the more reviews I get, the more I want to update. Luv ya!
