Chapter 10
Letter's From the Heart

Enjoy!

Harry awoke the next morning with a feeling in his stomach that felt oddly like he had literally swallowed the weight of the world. Noticing that Ron had already gotten up and left he started to get dressed. He glanced at the packages beside his bed. One box was given to him from Dumbledore another by his Aunt Petunia, which an envelope lay on top. The other packages were his birthday presents, all except for the Poppyworth which was currently resting on the dresser, true to his word. Harry had been petting on it, calling it by his name Grog and even when he was alone he would talk with it about how much he loved Ginny, how much he wanted her, and how he hoped they would be together forever.

Reaching out Harry took the envelope in his hands, and opening it slightly. He found two pieces of parchment. Harry almost dropped them, his mouth was hanging wide open. They were from his parents! Harry's stomach lurched at the unexpected surprise. His nerves were running amuck. He read down the first one. Pushing back the tears that already threatened his eyes.

My Dearest Harry,

There are so many things I wish to tell you, but first let me just say I love you! Eat right, yes that includes vegetables, not just chocolate


Harry laughed through the tears that had slipped


If you are reading this than I am physically gone from you. Just know that if this is the case, then I miss you dearly. I have some advise for your future that I wish to teach you, if only through a letter.


First of all Harry, never be afraid to love. Love will be kind, and true love will never part from you. I love you Harry, and I want you to know that even if you can't see us were always with you!

On a lighter note, you must promise me you'll find love, if you haven't already! (knowing a true Potter, you have!)

Harry Laughed again!

You will get married and have twelve children!

Harry felt himself blush at the thought of being a father to Ginny's and his baby's.

Now if you haven't learned by now, Charms was one of my best subjects, (apart from Potions), at Hogwarts and with a small incantation, and a wave of my handy-dandy wand, you must now promise this letter that you will be happy and in love and promise to have children to carry on the famous Potter hair! That I already know your going to have! So let's hear it, Repeat after me.. I Harry James Potter.

"I Harry James Potter"

Do solemnly swear to never let anything, or anyone in my way of loving the lady of my dreams.

"Do solemnly swear to never let anything, or anyone in my way of loving the lady of my dreams...Ginny Weasley" Harry decided to add her name, because she was the lady of his dreams.

I promise to be truthful, and faithful to her, and give her as many children as she wishes.

Though Harry was blushing again he did not want to disappoint his mother. So he cleared his throat and repeated " I promise to be truthful, and faithful and to her, and give her as many children as she wishes." Harry smiled at the thought again.

And die with a smile, knowing that I lived a worth while life at it's best, and in love

"And die with a smile, knowing that I lived a worth while life at it's best and in love"

Now it should start glowing pink, wait for it, wait for it, oh there it is!

His mum was good! Right then the parchment started glowing red, and warm. The promise sealed. Harry felt a warmth pass through his stomach and into his groin. Making him blush, again

Harry if I am gone know that I died happy. I got many smiles and laughs, I've had many friends who I've cared deeply for, and I felt love's power with your father, James. Even though I wish I've had more time with you. I know that one day with you is worth dying all over again. I love you Harry, I know life can be cruel and unfair, especially in times of war, but love will conquer all, If it is true! I hope you get to feel the love of the women in your dreams.

' Ginny ' She came to Harry's mind immediately

For the love of your parents will only get you so far!

My other piece of wisdom I'm going to pass to you is knowledge. Once you come of age, and you have agreed to the promise above things will be added to our Gringot's vault. I hope we left everything in order so you won't have any trouble. Go through it all carefully and Harry, you will find an envelope in there for your future wife, please give this to her. It is my way of saying welcome to the Potter family, also the engagement ring your Father gave me, which has been passed through the Potter generations has been added too, feel free to make use of this! Please!

My wish for you, my son, is eternal happiness and true love. Though my parchment is almost gone, my love for you will always be here. I will always be there for you, though you may not see me!

Love you always,

Lily Potter, Mum

Harry sat on his bed starring at his mum's letter. She wrote clear till the end as if trying to get in as much as possible.

"Harry, you up yet?" Ginny's voice came through the room. Harry looked up at her. Emotion raw in his face, bloodshot puffy eyes and tear stained cheeks. "Harry what's the matter" she ran the rest of the way to him. Ginny hugged him in love and concern, and Harry buried his head in her neck, and let all the tear's go he had been feeling. Ginny said nothing else, she just held him, stroking his hair and back. Harry felt the love and comfort flowing through her every move and in every breath she took. Harry inhaled, taking in her flowery perfume, and womanly scent that sent shivers running down his back. Leaning back he faced her, Harry put his hand on the side of her face her ear between his fingers. He kissed her with the love and tears that had welled up inside of him. He leaned his forehead to hers and though his eyes were still closed, Harry felt the worry in Ginny.

"A...note ..from my mum" Harry whispered.

"Were did you get it? When?" Ginny was also whispering, but in a worried voice.

"My Aunt gave it to me, said that she found it on me when they found me on their doorstep." said Harry.

"Oh, do you want to talk about it?"

Harry nodded "She told me never be afraid to love, that one day with dad and me was worth dying all over again, and do you want to know the weird thing Gin?" Ginny nodded "She didn't even know how she was going to die. She didn't know that Voldemort was going to get them, suspected yes, but not knew. And something tells me that once she knew how, and when she was going to die, she would have done it all over again. How can I compete with a love like that?"

Ginny sighed in understanding "Harry love, your not suppose to compete with it" Harry opened his eyes and met her brown ones. "Your suppose to learn from it. Your mum's telling you that true love is hard to find, and when you do find it, never let it go"

Harry smiled even though his face was still tear stained. "How do you know Gin? You haven't even read what she wrote?"

Ginny smiled back "I don't need to read it, only a women in true love could write words like what you just said, and only a women in true love would understand her meaning"

Harry smiled and kissed her lips gently "Thanks Gin, I love you

"I love you to" They sat in silence for a while, just holding on to each other. Feeling each other's heart beat against their own. Each breath was felt between them. Yet their hearts emotions and body's were yearning to physically show their love.

Harry took a deep breath and glanced down at the letter again. "This one must be from my dad"

Ginny nodded "You want to be alone, or should I stay?"

"Stay, please?" She nodded her consent. Harry pulled the other parchment from behind his mother's, but it was blank. Harry turned it over, it was blank too!

"Maybe she planned on writing more, but never got around to it" suggested Ginny.

"No, this one is from a Marauder" said Harry knowingly. He pulled out his wand "I solemnly swear that I am up to no good!" with a tap from his wand word began spreading like spider webs.

"Cool" said Ginny" and Harry felt himself smile as he started to read.

Misers. Prongs would like to congratulate Harry for discovering these words of wisdom!
A true Marauder!

( Now if this is Padfoot, Moony, or Wormtail get lost, I'm speaking to my son! )

Dear young Prongs,

By now your probably not so young and knowing your mother she's told you all about love! So we'll skip to the important stuff!

I hope your giving Hogwarts hell! A few good pranks and incantations can really lighten the mood! Just know there is still a time and a place for everything, I'm still trying to find out when there isn't a good time for a good prank! I'm still thinking about that one! Your mother just sent me a death look at me. Looks like I'll be sleeping on the couch!

Harry and Ginny laughed

First son, let me apologize right away about the hair! See, as it looks now your going to get it so I'm sorry, but between you and me, it drives the women crazy! Knowing the Potter blood in you, you've got a pretty red head sitting next to you now!

Harry smiled and Ginny blushed.

Well, I must ay I'm not surprised, Another Potter family curse, I'm afraid, Oh well, grin and bare it I always say. It's a tough job loving a red head, but someone has to do it! You mother just replied with "as if it's easy loving a Potter"

At this Ginny laughed and Harry cut his eyes playfully at her.

Though I couldn't agree more! We Potter's have a tendency to be overzealous sometimes. But we do make it worth while at night, though right son!

Harry felt his cheeks warm and blushed, he carefully avoided Ginny's eyes.

Okay down to business. Operation Animagus is now in effect! I have left you a certain book, with a few of my notes, on how to become an Animagus. Now your mother's sending darts at me with her amazing green eyes, of which you've inherited. There are some easier ways to get an Animagus form, then what those books at Hogwarts say. We Marauders were able to discover this secret in our fifth years, and were able to join Moony in the Shrieking Shack for his furry little problem. Man those were great times! Back to the present for me, and time to get a little emotional.

I sit here at the desk witting you, though my eyes keep watching your mother. Who is currently changing your diaper, in which she created a fantastic charm for "Dieperas Contarous" which saves us the time, and the smell!

Ginny laughed and Harry groaned!

Sorry son, didn't mean to embarrass you. Your mother's a great witch, top of our year, did she tell you that? And even though I came in second, she was always smarter than me. The only thing I was able to teach her was how to become an Animagus which she became a beautiful Doe. We now call her Mrs. Prongs. She's an amazing women as well!

Now if and when, or already are an Animagus you must have a nickname! I trust you to seek out any remaining Marauders for help with this! Also teach your women to, and your close friends, but it's a secret to be treasured, by those you trust.

Harry, it's hard for me to sit here and watch you with your mum who is now trying to feed you fruits, she won't let me feed you anymore, all I give you is chocolate! Slept on the couch for two weeks for that one!

But I know of this prophecy that Dumbledore, I trust has already told you about. If not seek him out immediately! Do not take unnecessarily chances, but take those you feel is right! I love you son, and knowing the blood that flows through your veins, you will fight, for it run's through mine as well! Be strong and love those that are around you don't attempt to push them away. They'll only cling on all the harder. For if I know you your a great man, a true friend and one day you'll be great husband, and Father.

That's even harder for me to imagine, as you are only almost one, and to imagine you with a child of your own is well, overwhelming. Great now I'm starting to sound like your mother. Another death glare, another night on the couch!

Ginny and Harry gave a small smile, as they both had tears coming out of there eyes now.

I have faith in you son, and I know you'll pick a great women, so I have faith in her as well. And all I have to say is treat Harry good, and he'll make sure no real harm comes to you! Love him and he'll love you back. We Potter's are mushy about love we can't live with out it!
Now son, I must say goodnight and goodbye Just so you know I just kissed your cheek.

Harry felt a soft brush against his cheek as he read and looked at Ginny, but found she was holding his one hand in both of hers, and her eyes still on the letter

One more thing, Harry. Don't forget about Quidditch it's the best sport, no matter where you are. The Potter in me is already saying your on the team, Gryffindor, no doubt! A seeker to, I'd bet. I couldn't be prouder Maybe I'll sneak your mother's time turner and come and watch you play. Of course you won't see me, but just know that one day I'll be seeing you. I already know that I couldn't be prouder. I love you my son.

Love

James Potter, Dad, Prongs

Harry saw a print of two hooves two different sizes and knew they were his mother's and father's Animagus print's.

"You okay?"

Harry looked at Ginny, deep in her eyes. "Weird isn't?"

"What?"

"Well, we found the love that my parents had" Ginny smiled "I hadn't even known the emotion till I met you Weasley's and now I realize, it was in me the whole time." Harry looked at her and found she was crying silently laying the letter's beside him, he quickly gathered her in his arms. "Ginny, I'm sorry did I say something wrong?" Harry hoped he hadn't come out wrong.

"No, it's just hearing you put love into words"

"Well, I love you Ginny Weasley and I couldn't be prouder!"

"I love you Harry Potter, which is why I'm coming with you to kill Voldemort for the final time!"
Harry hesitated He was fine now with Ginny coming to help destroy the Horcruxes, but to fight Voldemort! He didn't like the idea at all! "Ginny"

"Don't say it Mr. Potter, or I'll hex you. I love you and I will see your trials through with you till the end!"

Harry smiled weakly. ' How ' thought Harry ' could she make him do something against his own mind. Just by simply looking into her beautiful face '. "Fine, but if I say run, you run if I say hide you hide and if I say leave me, you'll leave me"

"I'll run when your behind me, I'll hide if I know your alright, but I'll never leave you!" Her words were powerful to him and made his insides feel warm. Harry kissed her softly and pulled her intimately against him. She moaned in pleasure as he kissed her neck and gently massaged her back.

"I love you Ginny" Harry said against her warm skin.

"I love you Harry"

"I love you both to stop being gross!"

Harry jumped. He found Ron and Hermione in the doorway. Ron looking angered, about seeing Harry and Ginny being so intimate, and Hermione beamed at Ginny after sending a disgruntled look at Ron.

"Err. How ..err ..long you two been standing there?" asked Harry suddenly nervous.

"Only to hear Ginny say she'd never leave you and you... and you kiss her so ..so.. Harry that's my sister you were touching like that!" Ron looked outraged.

"Oh calm down, it's not like they were shagging" said Hermione.

"Can we please leave that part of Harry's and mine's relationship between us !" snapped Ginny.

"You mean the lack there of right?...right?" Ron sounded horrified at sudden thought that his sister and his best friend were indeed going beyond the limits of just a casual relationship and into something more serious.

"Ron for your information, no we haven't had sex, but if Harry would stop being so damn noble every once in a while it would have happened a long time ago" said Ginny almost to calmly.

Ron's face and ears turned red then when he seemed to return almost to normal he said "I just want to say thank you Harry, for treating my sister with respect"

"Ron, I love Ginny I'm not going to hurt or disrespect her in anyway, but you have to realize that one day, and it maybe days, weeks, months, or years, but one day Ginny will come to me, and I won't deny her" Harry looked into Ron's face which seemed to be a battle raging inside him.

"Oh Harry that was beautiful" said Hermione "Oh Ginny your so lucky to have found someone to love you and respect you"

Harry looked at Ginny she seemed to not heard Hermione at all. She had two tears on her cheeks which Harry wiped away with his finger. His eyes put the love he was feeling inside and sent it to her with such force that Ginny leaked more tears. After wiping them away. Harry hugged her and kissed her cheek. But she wanted more from him. Crushing her lips to his and putting her tongue in on his. Harry responded by caressing hers and tangling theirs together. Harry's arms tightened around her waist, pulling her even more closer to him. Putting a stop to their kiss, Harry hugged her and held her to him. Hearing Ron say something like "That's disgusting".

"I think it's romantic" said Hermione.

"Well, not when it's my sister".

"Look past that fact Ronald, I see two people who are very much in love and trying to keep their body's from expressing so much!"

"I did not need that mental picture Hermione".

"Well, maybe you did, to finally wake up and see you sister is a woman not a child!"

"She's fifteen".

"Almost sixteen, her birthday is in two days you know".

"It is?" Ron looked suddenly horrified again.

"Don't tell me, you forgot?"

"No I just didn't realize it was so close that's all".

Hermione snorted As Ron ran downstairs "He forgot". Harry and Ginny had been watching this conversation between their two best friends. "Don't tell me Harry you forgot to?"

"Nope" said Harry "I got Ginny's present when I went to Diagon Ally the other day!" Ginny

smiled and Hermione breathed a slight breath of relief.

"Well, I should go and help Ron. Maybe even with a calming potion".

"Wait, do you think that Mrs. Weasley will let us go to Headquarters?" Harry asked

Hermione, but looked between Ginny and Hermione.

"Maybe, if we go with someone from the order. Why?" asked Hermione.

"We've got a Horcrux to find and make sure it was destroyed" said Harry very determined to start.

"You're right we'll go to headquarters get that one, then finish those memory's tonight".

"Sounds like a plan" agreed Ginny.

"Let's go and talk to her about leaving for a while, we'll have to Floo over to see who's their" said Hermione.

Together they all bounded downstairs feeling more sharp-eyed and determined!
