Harry didn't stay at the Dursley's home for much longer. He was anxious to go back to the Weasley's and talk to Ginny. With the new term due to start in a few days he needed to find out how she felt before she left. He walked into the ally way that he and Dudley had been attacked in 3 years ago and apperated.
He had gotten used to the sensation of aperating during his time hunting horcruxs, and within seconds he was standing in the garden of the Burrow. Slowly he walked to the house with his hands in his pockets, looking straight down. He knew now that there was no longer a need to rush. He could have this cleared up in a matter of minutes.
When he got to the door he immediately sensed that something was different. The house was full of excited chatter. Quickly he went to the living area, where the noise seemed to be coming from. Standing in the middle of the room was a girl with bushy brown hair.
"Hermione!" Harry exclaimed as soon as he saw her. She ran to him and threw her arms around his neck.
"Oh Harry. You have no idea how disappointed I was when I got here and found out you were out." She moaned
He chuckled at this. Ron soon appeared at her side.
"How did it go mate" Ron asked his best friend, "how were the muggles."
"I'll tell you in a minute," Harry replied, for he had just caught sight of Ginny. Leaving his two friends to talk he walked over to her.
"I need to talk to you," he said quietly, so that no one else could hear. She looked at him and nodded. They somehow managed to get out into the garden unnoticed and harry asked the question that had been bugging him since that night at the castle.
"Ginny, I've been wondering if, err, you still the same way." He asked her hesitantly. She looked confused and asked,
"What do you mean?"
"About me, do you think we could, maybe give it another go"
She laughed at this.
"Of course we could. I've been meaning to talk to you about it for a while, it was just with Fleur having the baby and all the funerals ... especially Fred..." and at this she couldn't go on. She looked up at the sky and willed her tears away.
He pulled her to him and held her there stoking her long silky red hair. He wished he could make her stop hurting with all his heart, but he knew that it was a futile wish. He was hurting too. He had always been very close to Fred and George and now that Fred had gone, George had seemed to go back into himself, not a bit like what he had used to be.
She cleared her throat and sighed.
"Oh harry I love you so much," She sobbed into his chest. They stood there like that for a while. He face buried in his chest and him stroking her hair.
"Oi!" shouted a familiar voice, breaking the spell. It was Ron. "What the hell do you think you're doing with my sister? You broke her heart once now back off."
"Ron!" Ginny screamed back just as angrily, "Don't you think I'm grown up enough to make my own decisions, back off and go back to Hermione."
Ron was about to respond to this when Molly called them all in from the garden. They left Ron still staring Daggers at Harry, And Ginny doing the same to her brother.
