Diagon Alley Again

Everyone said Goodbye to Hermione and Mr. Weasley that night before they went to sleep, except of course Mrs. Weasley who insisted that she would wake up to cook them breakfast before they left. Ron took Hermione to his room for a more private farewell.

Later that night Harry was having a heated snogging session with Ginny in his room. He was feeling happier by the minute for deciding to stay at the Burrow until Ginny left for Hogwarts. He had never felt so happy in his entire life. He didn't know what he would've done if Ginny's hadn't come in his life. She was the best thing that ever happened to him.

"I love you, Ginny!" he said to her.

"I love you too, Harry! But you know how you can prove your love to me?" she asked.

"Hmmm, I wonder…" he said looking into her eyes.

"Well, you know, Hermione probably won't turn up tonight and I'm a little scared of sleeping in that room all by myself." she said with a very fake innocent look on her face. Harry was liking it so far.

"Maybe you could stay inhere tonight then?" he said as if the idea had just hit him.

"I don't know" she said "What would my brothers say? I don't think they'll be very happy about it."

"What they don't know can't hurt them." said Harry and they both burst out laughing.

"Remind me again why I'm staying here until you start school?" said Harry as he put his arms around her waist. She laid two brief kisses on his lips "Oh, that!" said Harry as she kissed him again.

"And that was only the preview." Ginny said and she sat on his lap. She started kissing him passionately. Harry parted his lips to allow her entrance into is mouth. He placed her on the bed as he lay on top of her kissing her neck tenderly. She put her hands under his shirt as Harry moved back up to her lips and put his own hands under her shirt, caressing the soft skin on her stomach. Her hands moved up his back, pulled his shirt off and tossed is carelessly on the floor.. Harry pulled away from her and rolled on his back, Ginny put an arm around his waist and her head on his chest. That was how they both fell asleep a few minutes later.

They were awakened in the morning by a tapping on the window, which Harry realized, after putting his glasses on, was from an owl. He gently got up from under Ginny, afraid not to wake her up, walked over to the window and detached the letter from the owl's leg. The letter had the Ministry seal on it; Harry was assuming it was from Kingsley. He opened the letter as Ginny woke up.

"What's that?" she asked, pointing at the letter.

"It's a letter from Kingsley" he answered and he started reading it out loud.

Dear Harry,

I am afraid that I cannot do a training session with you and Ron today. I've had a small emergency and I will not be present at the Ministry all day. I hope to see you and Ron at nine o'clock tomorrow though.

Best wishes,

Kingsley Shacklebolt

Temporary Minister of Magic.

"That means that you can spend the whole day with Me." said Ginny. Harry smiled at her and made to put his shirt back on, as it was still off from last night's actions.

"No, don't" said Ginny "You look sexy with your shirt off"

So she thought he looked sexy. A small smile worked it's way up Harry's lips but never made it all the way because Ginny was already kissing him. They were interrupted by a knock on the door and Mrs. Weasley's voice.

"Breakfast is ready Harry, dear. And Ginny, if you're in there, that goes for you too" she said

"How did she know I was in here?" asked Ginny

"Well, you weren't your room, where else could you possible be?" answered Harry. Ginny nodded in agreement as Harry put his shirt back on. They walked down to breakfast together. Both had agreed that there was no need to deny to Mrs. Weasley that Ginny's had spent the night in Harry's room.

"Good morning!" said Mrs. Weasley when they arrived in the kitchen. "I hope you had a good night" she added eyeing both of them suspiciously.

"Mom, don't worry! Nothing happened!" said Ginny.

"Well, I certainly hope so! But I do hope it doesn't happen again. Ginny, you're still not of age yet therefore I hope to always find you in your room in the morning."

"Don't worry, you always will!" said Ginny.

"All right, all right! Sit down and eat. Ron's still getting ready. He's going to the joke shop with George again."

"We should go with him!" said Ginny to Harry.

"Sure, since I don't have Auror training today. Why not?" he said

"Mom, can we go with Ron?" Ginny asked.

"Yes, of course you can. Just be home in time for dinner."

"That's great Harry, maybe if we go you can buy a new owl and a broomstick." said Ginny. Harry's wasn't sure if he was ready for a new owl. He certainly needed one but he still hadn't gotten over the loss of Hedwig. But he figured he had to get one at some point.

Ron arrived in the kitchen a few minutes later. Mrs. Weasley told him that Harry and Ginny will be joining him in Diagon Alley. After they all ate breakfast they walked outside in the front yard from where they would be Apparating in the Leaky Cauldron. Ginny would be doing Side-Along Apparition with Harry since she hadn't passed her test yet. They Apparated with a loud crack in the middle of the Leaky Cauldron. When arriving in the Leaky Cauldron Harry saw something he wasn't expecting at all. At the sight of him all the customers, plus Tom, the owner, turned around and were staring at him. A few even came over to shake his hand, others asked for autographs. He was used to people staring at him but no one had ever asked him for an autograph before, except Colin Creevey. He assumed that after his glorious defeat, for the second time, of the most powerful dark wizard in the world he was considered a world-wide hero.

"It is an honor to see you here, Mr. Potter. What may I do for you and your friends?" said Tom, the bartender, pointing at Ron and Ginny.

"We just want to get into Diagon Alley, but maybe we'll come for a drink here later." said Harry. Tom looked astonished at hearing Harry say that.

"Mr. Potter is going to come for a drink here? That would be an honor, I'll get everything ready for you sir when you come." said Tom.

"There's no need to get anything ready, Tom. And feel free to call me Harry, I'm not very used to being called Mr. Potter." Tom looked at a loss of words. Harry, Ron, and Ginny walked to the back of the bar, after getting away from all the fans, and Harry tapped three times on the brick wall. A hole opened in the wall so they could walk outside in Diagon Alley. People acted no different in Diagon Alley then the customers in the Leaky Cauldron. A few people even followed them until they arrived at the Weasley's Wizard Wheezes. They were surprised to see that the joke shop didn't have many customers. George was at the front desk with a customer while Lee was putting more products on shelves. George looked pleasantly surprised at seeing Harry and Ginny with Ron.

"What you guys doing here?" he asked pointing at Harry and Ginny.

"Not the warm welcome I was expecting" said Harry "You know, being Harry Potter and all, I was expecting to see you bow down and worship me, at least that's what everyone else was trying to do." George laughed loudly, Harry was glad to see that his sense of humor was back.

"You'll have to get used to it" said George "You're the hero of everyone in the wizarding world. We're sold out on Harry Potter bubble-heads even"

"Harry Potter what?" asked Ginny

"Bubble-heads, I got the idea from muggles, you won't believe how much they love this stuff". George reached under the counter and took out a small Harry Potter with a huge head that kept moving from side to side. Ron and Ginny burst out laughing.

"People buy that stuff?" asked Harry. "How much are they?"

"One galleon each." said George. "We've made a thousands galleons selling those only so we decided to expand the Harry Potter merchandise. We have a whole shelf dedicated to you, mate." George pointed to his right. Ron, Ginny, and Harry walked to the shelf. There were Harry and Voldemort figurines shooting spells at each other, green light kept coming out of Voldemort's wand while Harry himself was performing a Dissarming Spell causing Voldemort's wand to jump out of his hand in Harry's the green light directed at Voldemorts this time hitting him square on the chest while he fell back. The product didn't do much to raise Harry's mood, he didn't feel especially happy at being reminded of that dreadful moment, but Ginny and Ron thought they were really funny.

"How much is one?" asked Ginny.

"Ten galleons, little sis!" answered George.

"Ten galleons?" asked Harry looking outraged. "No one will pay that much."

"Au contraire! You won't believe how fast they're selling. We've only had them out for two days and we've already sold about two hundred."

"Two hundred?? But that's two thousand galleons!" said Ron.

"Yes it is little bro, sales are shooting these days. We're working on a new product. We thought you and Hermione deserved a little glory too so we're making figurines of all three of you. We're calling them THE GOLDEN TRIO! We've also thought that people that want to look like the famous Harry Potter might earn us a few more galleons so we're inventing tattoo scars, wigs, and glasses. We already have the glasses and wigs but we're still working on the scars."

Harry was getting more impatient by the second so he took Ginny's hand and walked out of the store. He wanted to go to Gringots to get money out of his vault to buy a new owl and broomstick. They walked silently toward the bank. Harry's didn't feel like talking to Ginny at the moment. They reached the bank in no time. As Harry walked inside he was awfully reminded of his last visit. As he reached the front desk he was greeted by no other than Griphook.

"Harry Potter?" said Griphook "What an honor to have you here, and Ms. Weasley, and honor as well. How may I help you?"

"I would like to retrieve so money out of my vault." said Harry.

"Of course! May I see your key and your wand?" Harry handed him both of the items. Griphook handed Harry his wand back after examining it.

All three of them walked to the carts and stepped in them. When they got to the vault Harry stepped out and to a substantial amount of money out. He stepped back into the cart which took them back. Harry took Ginny's hand again and walked out as fast as he could. He wanted to get an owl first so he and Ginny went to Eyelops Owl Emporium first. As he expected, people were on top of him as soon as he walked in the store. After getting away from them he walked to the front desk.

"I would like to buy and owl" said Harry to the short man.

"Mr. Potter! Of course, what kind of owl would you like?" the man asked.

"Well, my last owl was a snowy one." said Harry.

"A snowy owl! Wait right here." Harry did as he was told and a minute later the short man came back holding a cage in which was an owl that looked exactly like Hedwig. Harry paid for the owl and walked out of the store.

"You should name her Hedwig." said Ginny. Harry nodded, even though the owl looked like Hedwig it would never mean as much to him as Hedwig did. Next, he and Ginny went to Quality Quiditch Supplies. Harry assumed there was a new broomstick model out because people were gathered at the widow looking at something, they were so interested in the broomstick that they didn't even see Harry Potter just walk by them, but Harry didn't complain. Again, he walked to the front desk where a young lady looking not much older than him was sitting. Harry immediately recognized her as being Angelina Johnson. She seemed incredibly pleased at seeing him and Ginny there.

"Harry, Ginny! How great to see you guys." she said.

"It's good to see you too." said he and Ginny.

"So, what brings you here?" Angelina asked.

"I want to buy a broomstick." Harry said "Do you still sell the Firebolt?"

"Yeah, we do. But we have a new model out. It's the new Nimbus Two-Thousand and Two."

"I think the Firebolt would be fine." said Harry.

"Yes, of course. We only have about thirty left but I'll go get one for you." She left and came back holding a new Firebold. Harry paid for it and he and Ginny, after saying Goodbye to Angelina, went back to the Weasley's Wizard Wheezes. They spent the rest of the day there and went for a drink in the Leaky Cauldron as they had promised, before going back to the Burrow for dinner.
