Harry woke up. It was the day he was to return to Hogwarts. He was scared of going back, of walking in the building where he had lost everything. Luckily, he had gotten most of that back. But there he had lost so many people. Dumbledore, Fred, Tonks, Lupin and so many more. There was none of his father's friends left for him to go to for guidance and he felt very alone. Harry did not know how he would cope going back to Hogwarts where his best friends were going to be his teachers.

Walking down the creaky stairs of The Burrow, Harry paused at the door to Ginny's room and knocked. "Gin. Time to get up" He called through the door. She opened the door and he greeted her with the usual kiss.

"I'm going to miss you Harry" Ginny said leaning her head against his chest.

"I'll miss you too Gin, but you can come visit at weekends" He said trying to cheer her up. Ginny nodded and the headed the rest of the way downstairs towards the kitchen.

Mrs Weasley was busily making breakfast. It had been a while since she had done the trip to The Hogwarts Express but she still panicked that they would miss the train. Harry tried to reassure her that if he did he could just apparate to Hogsmeade and walk to school. But Mrs Weasley was adamant that he would catch the train, it was the start of the school term.

Harry was worried about the Opening Feast. He didn't know anyone who would be at school. They had all been first and second years when he had left. It would be strange eating a meal in the Great Hall without Ron and Hermione. But he would have to get used to it, he had a whole year of it. And he had his meeting with Professor McGonagall after the feast to look forward to. He had always enjoyed chatting with her even if she had scared him in his first few years at Hogwarts.

"Harry dear, eat up. We have to leave soon. Are you all packed?" Mrs Weasley said.

"Yes Molly. I'm ready to leave as soon as you are" He was glad he head remembered to call her Molly. Picking up his spoon Harry began to shovel his cereal into his mouth in a very Ron-like manner.

"Well you were always more organised than The Weasley Family" She said, chuckling at the thought of those hectic mornings before term started.

As soon as Harry finished eating Mrs Weasley sent him upstairs to collect his trunk and his owl. Ginny went with him. She wanted to spend as much time as possible with him before he left for school.

When they got into Ron's room where Harry always slept, Ginny sat down on the bed and just watched Harry move about the room. She really did love him.

Harry closed the lid of his trunk and zipped it up. Then he sat on the bed beside Ginny and hugged her. "I love you Gin. Don't you ever forget that".

Ginny was taken aback by this sudden burst of affection. "I love you too Harry". Harry didn't want Ginny to forget him when he was at Hogwarts. But since she hadn't moved on in the four years when he didn't even talk to her, he thought it would be fine.

Getting up off the bed, Harry picked up his trunk and Dobby's cage and walked out the room. He didn't want to say goodbye to Ginny. Goodbyes were always the hardest.

The train station was packed. There were so many people around. Harry felt nervous, he hadn't been in big crowds of people for years and it made him feel uneasy. It didn't help that soon he would have to get on a train with a huge amount of people a lot younger than him. He just wished he didn't have to go back to Hogwarts.

"Harry! Come along this way!" Mrs Weasley shouted above the noise. "The train is due to leave in 4 minutes, we need to hurry!" Harry made his way over to Mrs Weasley and soon they had passed through the barrier and were standing in front of The Hogwarts Express.

"Now Harry. Remember and write to us every week and have fun! Don't get into any trouble just put your head down and get on with your work" Mrs Weasley said pulling Harry into a hug. She walked away from him and pulled out a tissue to blow her nose.

Ginny walked up to him. "I'm gonna miss you Harry. I love you so much. But I'll see you this weekend right?" She didn't wait for an answer she just kissed him and walked away. She didn't want him to see her cry.

"I love you too Ginny" Harry said but it was barely audible over the noise of the train whistle. "Well this is it. Bye Mrs Weasley, Bye Gin!" He shouted, jumping onto the train. He pulled his trunk and the cage in next to him and went to find an empty compartment.

Hopefully this year at Hogwarts wouldn't be so bad. He might even have fun. But one thing was sure, he would definitely miss Ginny.
