Finally Potter
Chapter nineteen
It was early. Very early barely passed eight when Ginny left her apartment. She found herself in the small village of Hogsmeade just south of Hogwarts; slowly she walked up to the establishment. However instead of entering the main building she walked around the back.
She looked around where she was standing surrounded by graves. She didn't like being here but she had something she needed to do. The closer to the wedding they were getting the worse she was feeling about betraying Luna.
Slowly she found the grave she had been searching for, it was under a large oak tree that gave a gentle shade over the slab that had a simple engraving of a name. She gently lowered herself so that she was sat in front of it and smiled slightly looking down on it.
"It's been a while mate hasn't it? I can't believe its been four years since I last actually saw you; since I had you standing next to me making stupid faces at the first years as they walked passed us. Telling boys where they should go, we had fun together."
She sighed as she sat there.
"I know that you're watching us, you always were one of those people that would do that. So I'm sure you won't be surprised to know that I'm engaged to Harry. Luna the only thing is that I feel guilty. So guilty."
"Its weird part of me thinks that I'm betraying Neville because my heart belonged to him for so long and so much happened between us. But of course you know all about my relationship with Neville we never could keep those things secret could we? But he's married to another woman and he's happy and I'm happy for him too."
"But then I also feel guilty about you, you were so in love with Harry and he with you. I feel that I've stolen him from you and it's stupid because you can't have him now but yet you still have him. I know he's moving on because it's what you'd want him to do but you're still with him."
She turned and watched a small bird fly across the sky skipping over the grave tops.
"I love him Luna I really do, and I promise you that I will never do anything that will hurt him. I care for him more than I ever thought possible. I just hope that I'm doing the right thing part of me is so worried that I'm not suppose to be with him."
A breeze played across her features and she felt her hair fly up around her face. A fuzzy feeling took over her stomach and suddenly she felt calm. She smiled down at the grave shaking her head slowly.
"You're right Luna. Thanks."
Slowly she pulled herself up and looked around. Walking passed more graves she found two more that she wanted to see. Looking at the one on the left there was engraved the name Arthur Weasley and next to it one which held two names, Fred and George.
Ginny knew that people thought it weird that Fred and George shared a grave and yet to those that had known them so well it made sense. They were always so close sharing everything it was only fitting that they were to spend eternity together.
Slowly she waved her wand and flowers appeared on both graves bright and colourful. Smiling she sat between the two happy to be near those that had played such a big part in her life helping to shape her into the woman that she was.
"Hello daddy, I miss you. Oh and you two as well. Sorry it's been a while but life's a bit busy at the moment. Last time I came was after Ron's wedding wasn't it. Well things have really changed. Daddy you're a grandfather again, you're first Grandson River Arthur Weasley. Yep so that means you two are yet again uncles."
She sniffed a little and rubbed at her eyes.
"He's gorgeous guys, he really is but he's so little. He's going to be a right little Wesley though and if he's anything like his sister he'll be acting like you two. She's a right little trouble maker now. What else don't you know yet?"
Ginny scrunched up her nose and smiled.
"I'm getting married, Harry asked me in November. It was kinda sweet he took me to Kings Cross right to the spot where we first met and asked me to marry him. We're getting married on the 7th November. I'm really nervous to tell you the truth, I wish you were still here to make me laugh and feel safe."
"Bill's going to give me away he said that he'll step up, I know he's only stepping in for you but I'm glad he's agreed. Charlie is going to bring mum and make sure that she's okay he did it at Ron and Hermione's wedding. Then Percy is just going to be there with Penelope helping to take care of River and Ron will be Harry's best man."
She twirled her hands almost nervously.
"I'm scared that our marriage won't work out. What if he suddenly realises that he doesn't love me? Or worse what if he decides he can't live without children? I can't give him children no matter how much I want to, it's not fair."
"He only wants you, just as you are."
Ginny spun around and looked at the figure standing behind her, small tears had formed in her eyes but the man just smiled and dropped down next to her.
"Hello Mr Weasley, Fred, George it's good to be back, I told you I was going to ask Ginny to marry me and she said yes. Thank you for everything I promise you that I will take care of her and won't cause her any harm. I love her just the way she is, and even with the three of you gone she's got enough brothers to make my life hell if I hurt her."
Harry laughed lightly and Ginny leaned in to kiss him.
"What you doing here?"
"Come to see Luna, want to join me?"
Ginny shook her head and stood up.
"I should be getting back; I have to be in work soon, I'm suppose to be there by ten."
Harry smiled and leaned in kissing her cheek.
"I'll see you tonight then baby."
She nodded and wiping her eye turned and walked out of the grounds so she could return to London and her job.
