(Don't like rape?...simple...DON'T READ IT!

"Dumbledore!" Harry shouted happily. And then he saw Ron, and Hermione with him. Hermione ran to Harry shouting Stupefy at the evil trio.

"Harry are you alright?" Hermione asked scared. Harry broke down in tears and turned to Ginny.

"I couldn't save her Mione! It's my fault...my fault." He sobbed.

"Mate she's alive!" Ron said kneeling down by Ginny who was unconcious. "She's safe now. You'll both be ok mate!" Harry tried nodding but his vision was going quickly. Dumbledore knelt down by Harry's injured body and whispered.

"You saved her Harry. Nothing can harm her now...sleep." The last thing he remembered was Ginny's beautiful face.

"My...fault..." And finally Harry felt his world go black.

Harry laid in bed unconcious while the others spoke unaware that he was listening.

"Blimey how long has he been out?" Ron exclaimed.

"Ronald he suffered a terrible ordeal! To think of what he saw in the Chamber with Ginny...if I were him I'd never want to wake up."

"Yes well...sadly I'm going to have to." A voice weakly said. Ron and Hermione turned surprised that Harry had finally woken up.

"Harry!" Hermione shouted and hugged him tightly.

"Hermione ow ow ow!" Harry winced making Hermione back away. "Oh sorry Harry. We were worried."

"Where's Ginny?" He asked suddenly. Ron paled and looked to Hermione. "How long have I been out?"

"About 3 days Mate. Ginny hasn't woken up either..." Ron said sadly. Hermione looked to Harry sadly when she saw tears come out of his eyes. In all the years she had been his friend she had never seen him cry so openly.

"Ahh Mr. Potter it seems you're finally awake." Dumbledore said walking into the hospital wing. "Miss Granger, Mr. Weasley may I have some words with Harry please?" They nodded and left Harry to talk.

"Professor, where's Ginny? I need to see her!" Harry said excitedly and tried to sit up but then groaned painfully.

Dumbledore chuckled and laid his hand on Harry's chest making him lay back down. "It seems you aren't going to move for a while. Don't worry Harry, Miss Weasley is still sleeping."

"What about Dean, Cho and Malfoy?"

"Gone...they're gone. Off to Azkaban. What they did to you and Miss Weasley is unforgivable. I know this must be a bad time Harry but I need to know what happened 3 days ago." Harry began to sob again and turned his face away from Dumbledore's.

"They raped her! Right in front of me! Just cause we loved each other! Ginny never did anything to them and they..." Harry paused and looked to Dumbledore sadly. "Why did they hurt my Ginny?"

"Sadly Harry we don't know why they did the things they did but you and Ginny can still have a life together. I've seen the way you two have looked at each other and also heard about your little rendezvous." He said winking and making Harry blushed. "Those three will never experiance what you two have. Real love."

"She's gonna hate me...I couldn't save her."

"It's not your fault. You tried with all your might to save her. What you need to do now is be there for her and show her your love." Dumbledore said gently. Harry nodded and wiped his tears.

"When can I see her?"

"Well...I know you're greatly injured but you have my permisson to go now. Just don't tell Madam Pomfrey ok?" He said smiling and Harry hugged him. He then went to the beds where he saw Ginny and what he saw broke his heart. She laid there perfectly still and had bruises everywhere. He said in a stool right by her bed and held her hand which was cold.

"Please wake up Gin...I need you. I love you..." Harry said desperately. Dumbledore put his warm hand on Harry's shoulder comfortingly.

"Harry they say if you talk to them, they wake up sooner..." Harry then remembered Ginny's favorite song and started to sing softly.

All those days chasing down a daydream
All those years living in a blur
All that time never truly seeing
Things, the way they were
Now your here shining in the starlight
Now your here, suddenly I know
If your here it's crystal clear
I'm where I'm meant to go

And at last I see the light

And it's like the fog is lifted

And at last I see the light

And it's like the sky is new

And it's warm and real and bright
And the world has somehow shifted
All at once, everything is different
Now that I see you...

Harry kept singing and as he was nearing the end of the song he grew discouraged afraid Ginny would never wake. Just then he heard groaning and a soft weak voice sing.

Laying here, it's all so clear
I'm where I'm meant to be

Now that I see you...

And Ginny finally opened her eyes and saw Harry sitting there crying.

"GINNY!" And he hugged Ginny tightly and lovingly crying into her shoulder.
