After Ginny safely got dressed and made her self presentable, she exited her room and made her way downstairs to the kitchen. Upon arrival, she saw a stack of pancakes, eggs, and orange juice all placed nicely on the table. She saw Teddy playing with a stuffed dragon that Charlie had brought him, and she saw Harry standing at the window holding a beautiful black owl. The bird quickly ate the treat that Harry held out for her, and then turned and flew right back out the window. Harry stood for a moment, looking at the letter, and was just about to open it, when he noticed Ginny in the room. He smiled at her.

"So I see you successfully got dressed without any help. Bummer." He laughed again as he walked over and embraced Ginny in a hug.

Ginny giggled into his shoulder, and melted into his embrace. After a few minutes, they pulled apart slightly and looked at each other. Harry leaned down and kissed Ginny's forehead. Ginny looked up at Harry and smiled. Merlin, she loved him. "So, who is the letter from?"

Harry pulled away completely and picked the letter up off of the kitchen table. "It's a reply from McGonagall. I sent her a letter last night asking her to dinner tonight to talk. I was just about to open it when you came in. But if you want, you can read it out loud to me while I finish getting breakfast together."

Ginny smiled broadly. "Ok." She took the letter from Harry's hand and looked at the envelope. It was written in familiar green ink and bore the Hogwarts seal. Ginny opened the letter, pulled out the parchment, and began to read aloud.

"Mr. Potter, I was pleased to hear from you. I do hope that you are doing well, and adapting well to life after war. I am also pleased to hear that you and Ms. Weasley would like to have me for dinner to talk. While you did not specify what you wanted to talk about, I feel that from the way you talked, it is good news. I would be honored to have dinner with you two tonight. I will be at the Burrow at 6:00. If that time is not good, please floo my office. Yours Respectfully, Minerva McGonagall." Ginny looked up at Harry and smiled brightly. "Tonight?"

Harry nodded. "Tonight."

It was 5:50, and Harry and Ginny were waiting around for time for their professor to arrive. Ginny sat down stairs on the living room couch with Teddy, playing with the small child. Harry, on the other hand, was upstairs in his room, looking at the photo book that Hagrid gave him first year. Since then, Harry had continued to add pictures to it as time went on. Right now, Harry was looking down at a picture of him and Remus. Harry had found himself looking at this picture often since the war. Harry felt a lot of guilt for the things he had said to Remus while Tonks was still pregnant with Teddy. Now that Remus was gone, Harry wished that he hadn't said those things, because he missed out on several months with his friend. Harry knew that he was blessed to have had Remus in his life, and to have grown to be friends with the man. He remembered the first time that he met Remus in that compartment on the Hogwarts Express. Since then, Harry had grown to know, respect, and love his father's old friend. Now, he sorely missed him. But he also felt like he was keeping Remus's memory alive by helping bring up Teddy.

"HARRY! COME DOWN HERE PLEASE!" Came Ginny's voice from the bottom of the stairs. Harry looked at the clock and saw that it as 3 minutes until 6. He quickly shut the album, put it back in its place inside his trunk and ran down the stairs. When he got there, he saw Ginny opening the backdoor with Teddy cradled in one arm and Professor McGonagall walking in. Harry smiled and walked into the kitchen and took Teddy from Ginny. Professor McGonagall looked at him and gave a rare smile.

"Mr. Potter, its very nice to see you. I see that you are doing very well with young Teddy here."

Harry smiled proudly. "Yes ma'am. Of course I have amazing help here." He put an arm around Ginny.

Ginny blushed. "Well, If you are ready, dinner is ready."

"That sounds lovely Ms. Weasley."

Harry walked over and pulled both the professor and Ginny's chairs out for them, put Teddy in his bassinet, and took his seat across from Ginny. The group fixed their plates and sat eating quietly for a while; Harry and Ginny both sending meaningful glances at each other.

"So," Professor McGonagall said, "what is it that you two wanted to talk about?"

Harry and Ginny looked at each other, once more before Harry looked that the professor.

"Well, Ginny and I have talked about it, and we want to return to Hogwarts this coming year."

Professor McGonagall smiled again and clapped her hands together in front of her. "That is excellent news!"

Ginny smiled at the woman. "Yes, but that isn't what we wanted to talk to you about professor. What we want to talk to you about is Teddy. Harry and I have discussed it, and we don't want to leave Teddy. When we go back, we want to take him with us. I know that it could cause some difficulties, but we just cant leave him."

The professor looked at the two seriously, and after a minute, she nodded. "I have to say," she began, "I am amazed by your willingness to accept and hold responsibility. You have shown amazing character by holding Teddy's goodwill up and above your own. Very few teenagers would do that and I just want to commend you for that. Now, I agree that having Teddy at Hogwarts will be different. There have been very few if any babies in Hogwarts. But I understand your need to be close to him. During classes we wil figure something out. I am so pleased that you two want to come back to school at all, and I know that I and the rest of the staff will do anything we can to help you."

Harry and Ginny both smiled broadly. "Thank you, Professor, thank you." Ginny said.

Just before Professor McGonagall spoke, she was interrupted when Teddy began to cry. Harry got up, picked him up, and shushed the child. He walked over to the cooler and pulled out a bottle, warmed it, checked it on his arm, and started to feed Teddy. He then sat back down at the table, adjusted Teddy so he could hold him and feed him with one hand, and began to eat his own dinner. Ginny smiled, but Professor McGonagall just looked at him with a mixture of awe and pride.

So they're going back! YAY! Review and let me know what you think.
