Chapter 12:

A tear came to Ginny's eyes as she leapt off the bed and into Lupins arms kissing him passionately.

"Yes Remus I will marry you, I want you too be the man that I see every night before I go to sleep and join you in my dreams, I want you too be the one I wake up next too every morning for the rest of our lives."

Lupin and Ginny embraced each other kissing passionately, when they broke apart Lupin placed the ring on Ginny's finger and neither of them could stop smiling, they got out of bed and got dressed, they then made there way to the kitchen there fingers intertwined, and huge grins on there faces.

Tonks and Harry saw Lupin and Ginny enter the kitchen, they offered them something more to drink and they accepted, Lupin and Ginny sat across from Harry and Tonks at the table, no one had noticed anything different until Ginny placed her left hand on Lupins face and leant in for a kiss.

"Oh Wow Ginny, when did that happen?" Tonks asked a smile growing broader as she continued to look at the gorgeous ring on Ginny's finger.

The ring had a gold band, with three diamonds and two amethyst stones imbedded into it,

Ginny looked at Tonks and smiled, "if you're talking about the ring, Remus and I got engaged this morning about ten minutes ago actually." Ginny could not stop smiling and neither could Lupin.

"Well has everyone finished their drinks?" Harry asked smiling

Everyone took a last mouth full of there remaining coffees and nodded there heads yes, Harry told them to get there coats and that he would meet them at the front door.

Lupin went and grabbed both his and Ginny's coats, he wondered what Harry was up to but he just could not figure it out, he joined the others at the door a minute later.

They all looked at Harry questioningly as they did not know where they were meant to be going.

Harry just smiled at them he told them to concentrate on a specific house no that he showed to them written down on a piece of paper. They all did as asked and within a few minutes they had arrived.

They looked around and saw nothing but green grass, trees, a big lake with its own pier and one huge house sitting on the large block of land, they could not see any other houses from where they stood and looked inquisitively at Harry.

Harry smiled and asked them what they all thought of the place.

They all took another look around, Ginny and Tonks and Lupin all told him it was beautiful, they then asked whose house it was and why they were there.

Harry walked to wards the large house, it was painted white on the outside and had a small garden full of roses and other beautiful flowers in it, he turned and beckoned them to follow him.

They all followed him, and when they entered the house were amazed, they walked through the door into a large foyer, when the walked through the foyer they stepped into a big red walled room which they all assumed was the lounge room, they continued to walk. The next room they entered was the kitchen, which over looked the back yard and the lake, it was yellow in colour but not bright, it was warm and felt homey.

When Harry walked back through to the lounge room they realised there was a staircase in the corner of the room, they had not seen it the first time they had walked through and wondered if it had actually been there, but there questions were answered by Harry who informed them that it was a lot like the room of requirement in Hogwarts once you got to a certain spot in the lounge area you thought about the upstairs rooms.

They all smiled and continued to follow Harry climbing the stairs one at a time and seeing them disappear after they reached the top.

Too the left of them as they walked they saw an office and two bedrooms, one was large and the other quite small, on their right they also saw two bedrooms and like before one was a lot bigger then the other. Each large bedroom had its own bathroom and then at the end of the hall there was a third bathroom for the other two rooms to share. When they walked from one room to the next Harry watched the faces of amazement on his friends as the walls changed colour every time you looked at them.

"Harry why are you showing us all of this?" Tonks asked.

"All in good time Tonks!" Harry replied smirking at her.

Tonks, Ginny and Lupin all looked at Harry suspiciously and wondered what it was he was up to.

"Want a drink anyone, come back down to the kitchen!" Harry said as he was walking back to the now visible staircase.

They all followed him and walked back through the bare house, and into the kitchen. With one wave of Harry's wand he had conjured up four comfortable chairs and four butter beers, popping the tops off of them, and putting the liquid into glasses as he handed them around.

"A toast," Harry said smiling as he raised his glass and motioned for everyone else to do the same.

"What are we toasting too?" Tonks asked politely.

"Well I thought we would start off with something simple and make our way through the list if that is ok with you Tonks! To new beginning's," Harry replied taking a swig of his drink and placing it down on the table motioning for them all to make a toast for something they thought was in need of one.

Lupin stay sat he held his glass up and reached for Ginny's hand with his free one, "To the start of new life, and the ones we get to share it with."

"Here, Here," Harry added when he saw Lupin skull the remainder of his drink.

Ginny looked around knowing it was her turn next, "To the loves of our lives and the chance to say that every day until I am no longer here to say it. She said looking around the room, noticing a slight tear come to both Lupin and Tonks' eyes. She leaned over to Lupin and told him she wanted to go look around a bit more and have a bathroom break, but also that he should go with her.

So they rose from their seats and asked Harry where the bathroom was, he told them but asked that they stay for one more toast. They obliged and sat back down watching Harry thinking they might find out what all this has been about.

"To our new home!" Harry said smiling at them all one by one as they slowly comprehended what he had just said.

They all smiled back at him, Ginny excused herself to the bathroom saying she had heaps of questions but that something's can wait. Lupin shook Harry's hand and asked if he was for real, when answered that it was all for real and they could move there stuff in straight away, Lupin thanked Harry and went to catch up with Ginny telling Harry and Tonks that they would take another look around when Ginny had finished in the bathroom.

Harry and Tonks were left in the room alone when Harry smiled at tonks and then spoke.

"So what would you toast too Tonks?" Harry asked curiously.

"I don't know Harry, I really don't know." She replied.

"Well if you don't mind I have a few things left I would like to hope and toast for." Harry asked.

"Sure go ahead, oh and by the way the house is beautiful Harry."

"So are you Tonks," Harry whispered before raising his glass and taking a swig.

"First toast, to good friends and a great house." Harry said looking around the beautiful interior of the house he had bought a few hours ago.

"Ok here goes nothing, my second toast, I toast for the woman I love to look at the bottom of her glass and say yes, Harry said smiling at Tonks cheekily.

Tonks smiled thinking he had, had too much too drink but when she peered into the bottom of her glass she saw it, it was shinning in the liquid drink, she pulled it out to see it was a gold ring, embedded with pink diamonds, when she moved the ring around in her hand she spotted some in graving on the inside of the gold band, 'Tonks, you are my son and my moon, will you marry me?' her eyes grew wide and when she looked up she saw Harry was on one knee looking into her eyes begging her to say yes.

Tonks looked back down at the ring, it was the sign she had been looking for but she was not sure what to do, yes she loved him but she was still unsure about how fast everything was happening they were not even a couple.

But then she saw the one little bit of engraving she had not noticed before and her mind was made up. It said…

Tonks looked back down at the ring, it was the sign she had been looking for but she was not sure what to do, yea she loved him but she was still unsure about how fast everything was happening they were not even a couple.

But then she saw the one little bit of engraving she had not noticed before and her mind was made up. It said…

I LOVE YOU TONKS.

It was engraved in the back of the ring as well as the rest, when she spotted it, it made her heart beat faster then it had done in months and she new that she loved him more then words could express.

A tear came to her eyes and she looked down at Harry, she placed her hands on his shoulders and got down on her knees to be at the same height as him.

Before he could read her face or ask her again she kissed him passionately on the lips, a fire rose through her body that she had forgotten even existed within her, she had only ever felt that particular sensation when she had been with Harry and knew that she could never let him go, ever again.

He looked into her eyes and saw why he had fallen in love with her, he could see straight into her soul and knew that he would never have doubts about them ever again, she was beautiful and full of life, he needed her in every way he could have her and he wanted her in even more ways then he could think of, he felt that spark return when the sparkle of her eyes met with his, the world and the problems floated away from them and they were at peace with life once more. There bodies met and the cravings for each other became unbearable, the kissing getting heated and deep.

Harry pulled away and smiled at Tonks.

"So is that a yes?" He asked cheekily.

"Yes Harry I will marry you." She replied smiling.

Harry took the ring and started to slide it on her finger, it fit perfectly.

They had not realised that they were no longer alone in the room but had a silent audience.

It was only when a soft music started to play that they turned to see two very happy faces smiling at them. Lupin and Ginny had just returned from their walk around the property they could now call home.

"You know it's about time you guys got your act together!" Lupin said cheekily.

Harry, Ginny and Tonks all started to laugh, Lupin and Ginny watched as Harry and Tonks helped each other off of the floor and pulled each other into a tight embrace.

"So what do you think about going shopping for some furniture to fill this empty place up?" Harry asked.

Ginny and Lupin nodded and Tonks said she thought it was a great idea. They all exited the house and turned to take one last look at the house and the property it was on, then with a smile they were gone.

The reappeared in the middle of diagon ally, as they walked down one of the streets they found a furniture shop and all walked inside, it had looked very small from the outside but as they moved through the front doors the shop turned into a warehouse, long and wide full of every different type of furniture you could imagine.

They walked down the first section of shop and saw a variety of beds, Ginny and Lupins fingers were intertwined and Ginny's other hand was on her fast growing stomach, she was now six months pregnant and had a small but very noticeable baby bump under her clothes. Tonks and Harry were looking at a large queen sized four poster bed it was very nice, it had carved spirals in the posts of the bed and had a red and gold bedspread over the mattress, they also spotted some throw cushions that had lions imprinted on them, Harry kissed Tonks in approval and refused to even look at the price tag and took one of the small paper reserve tickets, he placed it in his pocket and turned to see what Ginny and Lupin had found.

Lupin and Ginny had found a king sized bed it had a silver and about a dozen butterflies engraved into the frame, Ginny had also picked up a set of red satin sheets and a mink blanket that also had a large lion on it. When they went to look at the price tags of the items Harry interrupted them. Just grab the ticket and give it too me, call it an early wedding present. Lupin went to disagree when Harry ran up to them and took the ticket off Ginny. Harry smiled and walked back over to Tonks who was now looking at some other furniture for the bedroom and for the lounge area.

Ginny and Lupin headed over and found a section totally dedicated to baby furniture, they ended up taking tickets for a cot, a change table, a small book shelf and some smaller items to decorate the room with. When they returned to the front of the store they got there tickets out and placed them on the counter. Tonks and Harry had on just beaten them there and had already had a word with the store clerk to refuse taking there money, and to tell them that the products had already been paid for.

Smiling at what was about to happen, the clerk added everything together and Harry handed over a large sum of money, asking the clerk to deliver everything to the house as soon as possible, the clerk agreed and turned to see Lupin and Ginny waiting patiently to be served.

When Lupin asked how much everything had come to the store clerk smiled and politely told him he had no balance left on the goods, they had already been paid for in full and would be delivered as soon as possible to the house they were moving into. Lupin and Ginny looked straight at Harry who tried not to laugh but could not resist letting out a little chuckle, he wore a huge grin on his face and asked them if they all wanted to go and get a drink.

They all agreed and Lupin insisted on paying for this at least. They walked over to the three broom sticks and found a table that had four chairs, they took there seats as lupin walked over to the bar and ordered the drinks, he paid for them and then had them disappear from the bar and reappear in front of the others, who he rejoined a few seconds later.
