They walked into the living room where everyone was sitting. There was Mr. and Mrs. Weasley, Bill, his wife Fleur, and their 2-year-old son Colin, Charlie and his wife Constance, who was very pregnant with their 2nd child, and their 5 year old Sarah. Then there was also Fred, George, Ron, and Hermione. Percy had been killed in the war.
"Er... Hi everyone." Harry said nervously before Mrs. Weasley descended upon him and gave him a big hug.
"Oh Harry," she sobbed, "It's been too too long. We haven't seen you since the wedding. I was afraid we wouldn't see you again. You've been so caught up in your new life in the U.S. So what brings you here today, and with Ginny of all people?"
Harry was at a loss for words. Should they just make the announcement now that there was a perfect opening? He didn't want to make the announcement before Ginny was ready though.
His thoughts were cut short though when Ginny took the initiative.
"Harry and I are dating, Mum. Actually, we have been dating for a while now. We just decided to keep it secret. We didn't want to jinx a good thing at the time and we were both in a bad place, especially after Voldemort was defeated so please don't lecture us on not telling you. We didn't tell anyone to be honest. Not even Ron or Hermione."
"I wasn't going to lecture you, Ginevra. I am a little saddened that you'd think that. I am very happy that you and Harry are dating. I believe I speak for the whole family when I say that I am happy for the two of you. You seem to make a good couple."
"But what made you tell us now?" Mr. Weasley cut in.
"Well you see, Mr. Weasley.."
"Please, Harry, call me Arthur."
"Er, Okay Arthur. You see, I love your daughter very much. She means the world to me and I have asked her to marry me. So it was only fitting that we told you all."
Molly squealed and all the women rushed to Ginny and bombarded her with questions and asked to see the ring while the men clapped Harry on the back and jokingly told him he was doomed.
Later after all the congratulations were said and everyone settled down to talk in the living room before dinner was done, Hermione took Ginny and Harry aside for a little talk.
A/N: Okay please don't kill me. I know it's short...really short but I didn't have the time to write. I went on a trip last week and the week before it was finals and stuff and this is all I got to write. I'm supposed to go to the Live 8 concert this weekend, too, and my summer is kinda booked. I'll try really hard to get 3 more chapters out this summer but don't hold me to that.
