"Hold on tight," Harry told Ginny, and in a blink of an eye they were at the Burrow, and Harry and Ginny walked up the stairs and into the house, hand in hand. Ron and Hermione came out to greet them with Fred and George.

"Hey, mate," Ron said, grinning at his best mate and his sister.

"Hey, Ron," Harry grinned back.

"Hi," Hermione said giving Harry a friendly hug.

"Let's go put your stuff upstairs, until we go to Godric's Hollow in a few days," Ron suggested. They walked up the stairs and put Harry's things down, but as soon as they did Mrs. Weasley's voice came from downstairs.

"Time for dinner, you lot!" she exclaimed. They went downstairs to find Mrs. Weasley putting the dishes on the table.

"Mrs. Weasley? Your food looks great and everything, but I was hoping to take Ginny to dinner, if that's ok with you," Harry added quickly. Harry glanced over at Ginny and she looked as if her Birthday had come early.

"Please, Mum?" Ginny pleaded.

"Alright, you kids have fun," Mrs. Weasley said with a sly smile on her face.

"Let me change real fast!" she said running up to her bedroom.

Soon, Ginny came down in a nice long sleeve shirt that matched her eyes and a flowing skirt with high heels. Harry had to stop himself from staring for too long.

"C'mon," Harry said, putting his arm out for her to take. She took it gracefully and followed him outside.

"Hold on tight, were Apparating," Harry smiled.

"Where are we going?" Ginny asked.

"Do you want to ruin the surprise?" Harry playfully scolded. They quickly Apparated and they arrived in a lit Diagon Alley, full of people, celebrating, and carefree. Business seemed to flourish since Voldemort had gone; there were at least five new different shops and three new restaurants. "Well, where do you want to go?" Harry asked.

"I wanted to try that one just down the street from here, but I really don't mind," Ginny said.

"Well, let's go then," Harry said. They walked down the way, hand-in-hand, and finally got to the restaurant. Harry opened the door for Ginny and she walked through. "Table for two, please," Harry said and the waitress looked up, and tried to hide her excitement.

"What-would-you-like-Mr.-Potter? We-have-tables-booths-or-we-have-a private-room-for-you," the waitress said all in one breath.

"What do you think, Gin?" Harry asked.

"I'd like a private room, so everyone isn't staring at us while were eating" Ginny smiled.

"Of course, a private room please," Harry answered. The waitress nodded and gathered a few menus, and led them back to where the private rooms were.

"Right here, Mr. Potter, someone will be out to wait on you in a second," the waitress said, putting the menus down in front of Harry and Ginny. They nodded and started looking over their menus. The waitress left through the curtains that were blocking that table from the rest of the restaurant. The little room was cozy, it was dim and a few candles were floating in mid air to light the room, and there was a candle on the table. The seats were cushioned and the table was a small table for two. The walls were a deep navy blue that reminded Harry of the velvet night sky. There was a window in the corner that showed the stars and the milky, white, crescent shaped moon.

"Remember, you're with me, you can have anything on the menu," Harry laughed, smiling at Ginny. A waiter came in through the curtains and asked what they would like to drink. "I'll take a butterbeer," Harry replied.

"Me, too," Ginny said.

"Right away," the waiter said, walking out of the room.

"You know tonight's special, I guess, it's our first date in…two years? Man it's been long," Harry said, running his hand through his hair, and Ginny giggled. "What?" he asked.

"I love it when you do that," she tittered. Before Harry could reply the waiter came back in with two frothy mugs of Butterbeer.

"Are you ready to order yet?" he asked.

"I'm still trying to decide," Harry answered.

"Then I'll be back when you are ready," and he went out of the room. Harry finished finding what he wanted and he raised his glass. "To a new beginning," Harry smiled.

Ginny raised her glass, "To a new beginning," she said also smiling. And they both took a sip.
