Chapter 6-Growing Up

The pair sat down at the edge of the bank. Harry drew out his wand and shot out puffs of smoke which formed to say HAPPY 18 TH GINNY.

Ginny drew hers out and destroyed all apart from GINNY. She then sent out more puffs of smoke, GINNY FOR HARRY in a huge smoking heart.

She lay down and Harry did so too. She leaned over to him as kissed him softly.

Harry returned it.

They lay there kissing, for about half-an hour till Harry realised the time.

"Come on, let's go back."

"Why? No one's coming till tomorrow! Let's keep..."

She grabbed his hand, but he held it gently and helped her up.

Hiding a smirk, he led her back to the Burrow.

It looked normal from the outside.

He stepped inside, followed by Ginny. It was almost pitch black.

"Lumos." Said Harry.

Everyone was there and shouted Surprise!

There were decorations everywhere, including a blown up version of the wizard photo showing Harry and Ginny kissing.

"'Appy Birthday, Jeany!" cried Fleur, who Harry noticed had quite a sizeable bump.

The celebrations carried on well on into the night.

When all those who did not live there left, the residents resided to bed, apart from Harry and Ginny.

"Ron, I'll be up in ten minutes." Harry called.

Ron merely grunted and went to Hermione's room.

Ginny dragged Harry into her room.

"Here. This came for you." She placed a small, brown envelope into his hands.

He opened it and saw neat writing-Kingsley Shacklebot's.

Dear Harry,

I was most delighted to hear you are definitely going to take up the position of Head Auror. The following sheet is a small application form which is standard to fill out. Please return it to me as soon as possible.

Yours Sincerely,

Kingsley Shacklebot,

Minister For Magic

P.S.

Please wish Ginny happy birthday from me

"Kingsley said happy birthday..." he mumbled, looking at the second, box-filled page.

Whilst answering the questions, he felt Ginny nibbling gently on his ear-lobe.

He sighed happily. "You know, Ms Weasley, you are quite a distraction at times."

"But I know you like it..." she grinned seductively.

Harry rolled her onto the bed and realised she was only wearing a short top. He took advantage of this by kissing her flat stomach. She pulled him up to her lips and they kissed once again. She kissed him more and more passionately, and was trying to unbutton his shirt.

"Wait-", "are you-", "sure you-"want to do-", "this?" said Harry between her kisses. She looked at him.

"Harry."

"Yes?"

"Just shut up, okay?"

And they melted into the night as their relationship took the next step.
