Ginny stared at Harry's hand, confusion filling her face. "Huh? What are you doing?"

Harry had to resist the urge to roll his eyes, "I'm trying to start over." He reached down and picked one of her hands off her lap and brought it to his lips for a gentle kiss. "So, Miss Weasley, will you dance with me?"

Harry watched Ginny swallow before nodding nervously. His shoulders relaxed as he smiled and helped her to her feet.

They stood there for a moment, sheltered under the gazebo from the misting rain. And then they began to dance. At first it could barely be called dancing, more a swaying of the bodies and the shifting of the feet, but slowly it became real dancing. Harry's current body began to remember long forgotten dance lessons from when he was in school.

They started dancing there, protected from the rain, but Harry soon found it to be too cramped, he felt inhibited. So, slowly, they drifted out onto the stone pathways. The rain continued to fall around them as a mist, but as Harry whispered, "I love you," too softly for Ginny to hear the clouds parted a little and the full moon appeared above them.

Harry lost track of time as they continued to dance, but eventually, they stopped and returned to the house. They bid each other goodnight with a soft peck of a kiss and a promise to do it again sometime soon.

Harry fell into bed with a smile on his face and his dreams that night remained free of nightmares.

The next year passed quickly for Harry. His days were spent following Lucius Malfoy around with Draco and his nights were spent either romancing Ginny or befriending Draco and his little gang.

He rarely ever saw Snape outside of official occasions when Harry was acting as a part of the Fuhrer's Guard. Seeing his mother was rather rare also. She was busy designing a new parliament building in Paris – where the Fuhrer planned to move his government, so it would be more centrally located. The move wasn't planned until Fall 2020, so Lily would be busy for a while.

Like it had happened in the previous two worlds, Harry felt himself beginning to sink into this new world and forget about the past ones. No longer was he a wizard, soccer player, or policeman. He was now Harry Potter, a member of the Fuhrer's Guard, and possibly a future rebel. That is, he'd be a future rebel if he could just get Ginny to admit that she was one.

Even after a year she wouldn't let him even look into her room. They were always in the garden or down at her parent's cottage, eating dinner with them. That had been interesting in a way, the first time he visited the Weasley's Cottage.

Mrs. Weasley had lost her cool when she realized who he was. The image of her dropping a whole stack of dishes and dropping her jaw in disbelief was permanently engraved in Harry's memory. But it had only taken five minutes of watching him for her to return to her normal self and begin mothering him. Harry had felt instantly at home. Mr. Weasley had looked Harry up and down, chuckled at his wife's reaction, and then promptly began to ask Harry questions about what it was like to be in the Fuhrer's Guard and if they got to drive special cars.

Mr. Weasley's passion in this world was cars. New cars. Old cars. Pretty cars. Ugly cars. It didn't matter, as long as it had four wheels and a motor he could talk about it for hours.

That first visit had occurred in July, on Harry's birthday actually, about three months after Harry's arrival in this world.

It was on New Year's Eve that Harry managed to convince Ginny to join him when he went out with Draco and the gang.

That had actually gone fairly well, all things considering.

Blaise Zabini, Pansy Parkinson, and Cormac McLaggan had looked at her as if she was something nasty that had attached herself to their shoe. They'd spent the entire evening ignoring her, even going out of their way to pretend that she wasn't there.

Michael Corner and Zacharias Smith had given her looks that made Harry want to punch them. He resisted the urge and instead just glared at them until they looked away.

Justin Finch-Fletchly, Cho Chang, and Victor Krum had smiled and nodded politely at her before going back to enjoying their evening.

Angelina Johnson and Luna Lovegood had taken one look at Ginny, smiled broadly, and accepted her as an equal.

At one point during the evening Harry found himself sitting alone with Draco, Angelina, Luna, and Ginny were off getting drinks and everyone else was dancing.

"So, she's what's had you smiling so much," Draco commented.

Harry grinned, "Yep, that's her. She's amazing."

"Lucky." Bitterness soaked every word that came from Draco's mouth. "I wish Luna was nothing but a servant girl. She'd be good enough for me to marry then, but wouldn't be a danger to the safety of Third Reich."

"You know, sometimes you have to put your happiness first," Harry said softly.

Draco's eyes narrowed and his hand tightened on his drink. "That sounds dangerously close to being treasonous, Potter."

Harry chuckled, "Calm down, Draco. I was just suggesting that one of you give up your future as a Minister if being together is so important to you."

"That isn't possible. We're only children. We have to take our parents' spots."

There was such heartbreak and bitterness in Draco's voice that all Harry could do was whisper softly, "If you say so."

"I do."

The conversation had drifted into less serious matters after that and Harry had never suggested that Draco or Luna give up their careers. Oddly enough, Draco was becoming his friend, and Harry didn't like to hurt his friends.

Draco wasn't a friend like Ron or Hermione had been. In fact, looking at their relationship, some might not even call it friendship. Neither of them would put themselves out for the other nor sacrifice themselves, but, they did trust each other – to a point at least.

Harry's problem was that he couldn't dispel the image of Draco standing over him and pointing a gun at his head. Whenever he felt his friendship with Draco becoming stronger that image would pop into his head and he'd immediately back off, trying to protect himself.

After New Year's Eve Ginny joined Harry more often during his evenings with Draco and the gang, but it wasn't her favorite thing to do. She much preferred it when she and Harry would pack a small picnic and eat dinner under the stars in the garden – no matter the weather.

It was on a cool night in May that Ginny broached a subject she'd been avoiding for over a year. The two of them were sitting on a blanket under their favorite weeping willow and feeding each other little bits of cheesecake.

"Harry," Ginny asked as she gave him another piece of cheesecake, "do you want to meet my family?"

Harry frowned as he chewed the cheesecake. Once he swallowed he answered her. "Meet your family? Haven't I already met them? We just had dinner with them last night."

Ginny shook her head, "No, not my parents, my brothers. Do you want to meet my brothers? Oh, and my nephew."

Harry froze and looked Ginny in the eyes. "You're going to let me meet them? Finally?"

She nodded, "Yes, I know I can trust you now." Her eyes searched his face, "I can, can't I?"

Harry smiled and pulled Ginny into a hug. "Of course you can trust me. I love you. No matter the world, I love you."

Ginny hugged him back. "Good, cause I think I love you too."

At her words Harry hugged her all the tighter. Ginny loved him again. She loved him again, so everything would be all right.

Eventually.

It had to be, that was the only thing he had left to hold on to.
