Finally Potter

Chapter thirteen

"You look lovely Gin."

"Thanks hun."

"You have a little bit of something just here."

Ginny smiled as Harry leaned over and with his thumb rubbed at a spot just below her lip. As the tip of his thumb touched her lip she felt a thrill run through her and smiled coyly at him.

"I love you Harry."

"I know, and I love you too."

She leaned over and gently touched his lips with her own. As her eyes closed she saw a bright flash through her lids. Opening her eyes and pulling away from Harry she saw some guy standing there with a camera.

"Harry what are you doing so far north?"

She looked around and signalled to a waitress that she wanted the bill. The woman was quick coming over and she slid her some muggle money climbing quickly to her feet.

"Harry come on we better be going, we have to get back."

"Where are the pair of you going?"

Harry looked at her and back at the man smiling slightly.

"We're on our way to met with some friends in Hogwarts; we're already starting to prepare for the ceremony. So if you don't mind we better get going don't want to be late."

Ginny took Harry's hand and they ran out of the shop up the secluded path to Urquhart Castle. As they reached the top of the small hill the pair looked out. Standing in front of them was a large castle in all its glory.

Ginny had seen the muggle photos and none of them showed the castle in this form only the ruins that the muggle could see. She thought that they were missing out on so much of the beauty but then she knew as a witch she was extremely lucky.

"Wow Ginny this place is so beautiful."

"You'll have to thank Hermione she chose it."

The pair walked down to the entrance and into the lower levels. There was a muggle couple close to them commenting on how beautiful this place was and pointing at the clouds. Ginny looked up and saw the blue ceiling, it was painted with fluffy white clouds and she smiled at them.

"Hello you're Harry Potter aren't you?"

The two turned to see an aged man smiling at them. His white hair was thinning on top but his violet eyes shone with some sort of happiness. He was dressed in a pair of black trousers and a jumper that made him fit in with the muggles.

"It's a pleasure to meet you; this is my lovely fiancée Ginny."

Ginny took his hand and smiled as he kissed it. Then he looked around and pulled the pair towards a side staircase.

"Muggles see this as a stairway to nothing, that it led up to the higher level that was destroyed when the castle was blown up by the muggles."

"They blew it up?"

Ginny heard the surprise in Harry's voice as they followed the man up to the wizard only area.

"Yeah it was blown up by the muggles in 1692 they were trying to prevent it from becoming a stronghold for the Jacobites but what they didn't realise is that Nicolas Flamel loved this place and hours before it was due to be destroyed he came here and put an enchantment on it to protect it from muggle destructive weapons and then when the explosion went off he used his powers to make it look like ruins to the muggles."

They reached the wizard level and Ginny looked around it was gorgeous. The walls were covered in wooden panels that were draped in tapestries that reminded her of the walls in Hogwarts. There were suits of armour placed in sections that gave it an aged look.

"It's gorgeous here, and it'll be prefect if it rains because we'll be inside."

The man smiled at them and they looked around a little.

"Is this all there is of the Wizarding area?"

"No there is more in fact if you come through here this will be where the ceremony would be performed for you."

Ginny followed the man into the room at the very end of the corridor. She gasped as she looked around; it was a long room almost the same size as the Great Hall of Hogwarts. There was a large stain glassed window at one end that showed a young man with a wand in his hand. Under it was the name Nicolas Flamel.

"This is a secure room and the only people who will be granted access are those whom you invite to the wedding."

"What if the press turn up?"

"Are they likely to?"

Ginny laughed at the mans response to Harry's question she moved towards a statue of a phoenix and turned to look at him.

"It's likely that they will turn up they did at Ron and Hermione's wedding and at Neville's wedding to April."

"It's because you saved us from him isn't it that's why they want to turn up at your wedding."

"Yeah that's it, will you be able to keep them out."

"Of course, if any of them do turn up they will be made to stay outside. I'll make sure that we have guides that won't let them in."

Ginny smiled as she walked back to Harry taking his hand.

"I love it. Oh will we be able to keep the muggles away on the wedding day."

"We can close it to the public, when exactly are you planning the wedding."

"November 7th"

He looked up at the ceiling and nodded.

"That'll be fine, we can do that."

Ginny smiled and looked at the man.

"Can we have a moment please?"

"Of course, I'll just be outside."

"I don't want to go look at Goodrich castle I want to get married here."

Harry took her hand and he smiled down at her kissing her forehead gently.

"I agree, I'll go sort it out now."

She watched as he disappeared and when he returned he grinned at her.

"Now we have one less thing to sort out. Come on we better get back we've got that surprise party for Neville and April to get to."

With that the two left Scotland to head back to London.
