Disclaimer: I'm not JKR, got it?
A/N: I know Harry's b-day's in August, last chapter I goofed and said June, my mistake. Hope you enjoy!
Harry's POV:
I can't believe this day is here. I've been waiting for this for god knows how long. I'm sure she's going to look amazing. This is all I want. This is bliss.
Ron and I have been fighting over the one mirror all night. (It's sad but true.) Ron says that seeing as I'm already dating Ginny, I don't have to look as good, while I retaliate in saying that Ron's hair actually lays straight!
I am wearing black dress robes with my white collar underneath. I look in the mirror and am not to disappointed, if only my hair would cooperate.
Fred and George did on their honor last year and bought Ron new navy blue dress robes that they said would bring out his eyes, I don't know about that, but it's an improvement on last time.
It's about ten to nine, and we said we'd meet at five of, I'd better get down there, though my hair is still a disheveled mess. I pull Ron downstairs, and he is looking rather pale and nervous, we come into view and I stop in my tracks.
Oh! There she is. She is so heartbreakingly beautiful. She is mine. All mine. From the very tip of her head to her toes, which are in very shiny high heels. Wow how is she walking?
My eyes train from her toes up to the silhouette of her legs that are showing through her dress just enough to get my heart pounding.
Her dress is a gorgeous emerald green and it falls beautifully on her hips with a silky fabric. Her waist is almost corseted with the same material and there is delicate beading along the neckline.
Whoa. Neckline….ok eyes on her face, eyes on her face. Her face, wow I saved the best for last.
She has a intricate diamond jewelry framing her face, she is looking away from me and she is laughing at something Hermione said.
She has a faint blush in her cheeks, and I know that with her by my side I can conquer the world. She has done something to make her eyelashes thick and fluttery, she's perfect.
Her hair is wavy and is pulled back in two tiny strips above her ears to tie together in the back, she looks like a Greek goddess.
I look at her and smile. I'm smiling because this bundle of perfection, is all mine.
Ginny's POV:
Can the whole room hear my heart beating? It seems so loud. I've been waiting so long for this day and now it's here. I know he's going to look amazing. Every girl will be jealous of me tonight.
Mione and I decided to configure our own mirror since Paravati and Lavender were hogging the one in our dorm. I decided to wear green this year, and my hair down, I think I look more grown up.
Hermione chose a pale blue number, and she has glittery jewelry that looks like icing!
She looks amazing and her hair is her usual but she made it more wavy than curly and eased it down.
I'm so nervous, I don't know why, it's just a dance and we've been dating for a while, it just seems like it will be a big night.
It's quarter to and we two girls are waiting by the fire for the guys to come down. "Whew, is it just me or is it hot in here?" she asks and we both laugh because we know we just have nerves.
Suddenly I feel two hands in front of my eyes and a warm presence behind me. "Guess who." says my captive, oh this is a hard question.
I put my hands over his and said "Could it be my night in shining amour? Or someone from Slytherin coming to murder me?"
He laughed and pulled our hands down intertwined, around my waist. He stood close behind me and I rested my head on his shoulder. "No," he whispered in my ear, "It's your boyfriend."
"Oh right…." I say smiling, we giggle and he leans in for a quick kiss. When we break apart I see what he's wearing. Oh god he's delicious.
He looks like a sleek wizarding version of that muggle guy, oh what's his name? Um…Josh Bond, no James Bond! That's it James Bond.
"Sorry about my hair," He says looking embarrassed. "it wouldn't lie straight." "I like it better this way." I said truthfully, and he looks as if I made his night.
We look over to Ron and Hermione and they are holding hands and are deep in conversation. We cough to bring attention to ourselves.
"We should head down to the great hall." Harry says, and he sounds so perfectly at ease. We all walk down the main staircase, and it feels so right to be on Harry's arm.
We wait in the hall until the ball is opened by Prof. Dumbledore. Then everyone drinks punch, dances and enjoys the decorations in a merry way that I cannot understand.
The boys ask us to dance and soon a slow song comes on. Harry pulls me close and I close my eyes in his chest.
I feel his head resting on top of mine and he begins to hum along with the song. We stay that way until a new faster song turns on and then we make our way to the punch bowl.
We get approximately fifteen stares on the way over, and they continue as we get our drinks. Some people seriously need to get a life if watching ours is more interesting than living theirs.
After we finish our drinks we are starting to get annoyed with the staring, and Ron and Hermione have long since escaped to the garden.
"Lets go somewhere." Harry whispered in my ear and I followed him with our intertwined hands between us.
"Where are we going?" I asked when we got outside, "Our place." he said. Now I had no idea where our place was but I didn't want to admit that, so I just let him lead.
Eventually, after we got so far from the school we couldn't see anything, I asked him where our place was. He just lit his wand with lumos and smiled, "You'll see."
It was so dark and I had no idea what part of the grounds we were on, "Harry come on just tell me!"
"And….we're here." he said. I looked around, nothing. To me we just looked like we were on a random patch of grass.
"Um…where is here exactly?" he smiled, and pulled me close to his side. "Close your eyes." he said.
I did and I heard him say "Lumos maximus!" then he told me to open my eyes. When I did, a huge smile lit up my face.
"Oh yeah," I said understanding now, "Our place." I turned to him and we shared a very romantic and passionate kiss.
Our place was the center of the quidditch pitch, he had brought me to the place where we had first got together, the place we first kissed. He brought me to our place.
After a while had passed, we broke apart. We stared into each other's eyes, and there was something lying underneath the surface of his, something he was holding in. He asked me to dance, and we swayed on the spot despite the lack of music.
"Gin." he said in a low serious voice, "Yes." I said curious. "I've wanted to say this for forever, but I never felt like it was the right time." he said still serious.
I was so confused, what on earth could he need to say to me? We told each other almost everything.
"Ginny, these last few weeks, I've been the happiest I could have ever dreamed of being. I like myself better than ever when I'm with you. You are the only person who I can always be myself with and not feel like I need to hide anything. You make me feel like someone else completely, someone without fan clubs and a scar on his forehead. You make me the best I can be. I love you Ginny, completely with all my heart, more than I've ever loved anything before. I love you."
Wow, tears were streaming down my face, he is the best thing in my world and the most I could have ever asked for. When I could speak, I looked into those emerald eyes and said, "I love you too."
His face broke out in bliss and he pulled me close. I never wanted him to let go. I now knew the emotion that was under his eyes. Joy.
Complete and utter joy had leaked through his face and now shone threw making me and everything within a few feet of him glow.
This is what everyone wants out of life, I feel like the luckiest person on earth to have this feeling. Love.
A/N: Yay! I know the title is original but it fit. =] Sorry that took a little while but I had a lot of stuff in it that I took out and I'm putting in the next chapter. I should be almost done =[ I'm thinking two more chapters just to sum things up. Next chapter you get the dish on how Ron and Hermione's evening went! ; ) so as always review and hope you liked it!
