It had quite possibly been the longest day that Harry could remember since the defeat of Voldemort. Not only was Ginny avoiding him, but there was no one around for Harry to talk to. The only bright thing was that Madame Pomfrey had finally gotten Teddy's fever to break and had assured Harry that he would be back to normal in a few days. So with one worry out of the way, Harry headed out of the Great Hall after dinner to find Ginny. After a short search, Harry finally found her curled up in the corner of the library, head on her knees. Harry walked over to her and sat down next to her quietly. So bad, he wanted to reach out and touch her, but he didn't. Not yet.

"Ginny," Harry said softly. "Ginny, please look at me." He pleaded.

Slowly, Ginny lifted her gaze and met Harry's eyes. He had really hurt her, and he could see it as he looked into her eyes.

"Ginny, I am so sorry about what I said to you this morning. I know that you care about Teddy, and I was just scared and upset and taking it out on you. And you're right, what's done is done, and all we can do is learn from our mistakes and not make them next time. Look," Harry said as he ran his hand through his hair, "I know that I was wrong for yelling at you. You do your best just like I do and I know that I would be devastated if you said that I didn't care about Teddy. Ginny, you mean the world to me, and today has been absolute crap without you in it. I'm so sorry, Ginny. I really really am. Please forgive me."

Harry watched with pleading eyes, waiting to see Ginny's reaction. But to his surprise, and disappointment, she did not react; she just sat there staring at him. Finally, after a moment, she reached out and took Harry's hand in hers. "You're right, you did hurt me by yelling at me and saying that I don't care about him. But also, you were right when you said that I should have done the best thing for Teddy, who cares about the rest of the castle. Look, Harry, all day, I have been sitting here thinking about us. And here is what I have come up with. You, Teddy, and I are a family. Maybe not legally or anything, but we are as close to a family as we can be. Families sometimes have disagreements. But the important thing with families and us, is that we love each other and we won't let anything ruin what we have. Harry, I am not going to leave this relationship. I have full intentions of us getting married one day, and I really hope that we are still on the same page. I am so sorry if I disappointed you today, but I promise that I will continue to try as hard as I can to be the best godmother I can be." Ginny smiled, squeezed his hand, and leaned to Harry and wrapped him in a hug.

Harry smiled as he held the girl of his dreams in his arms. Never would he have fathomed that it would feel this good to be loved by someone. Finally, Harry pulled back and took Ginny's face in his hands. "I love you so much Ginevra Molly Weasley. And just so you know, we are still on the same page." With that Harry leaned up and placed a kiss on her forehead.

Just as Madame Pomfrey promised, Teddy was back to his normal self just three days later. Unfortunately, this also happened to be the day that classes started. So as Harry and Ginny had previously planned, the couple dropped Teddy off at the infirmary on the way to their first class, and then together quickly ran toward their first class. Just before 8, the couple slid into their seats at the table in their transfiguration class. Giving them a look, Professor McGonagall began her lesson. When the professor turned around through, Harry saw a small piece of parchment slide across the table to him. Quickly grabbing it and shoving it under his book, Harry continued to take notes until the professor turned again. Then, as inconspicuously as possible, Harry pulled out the note and read the scratchy handwriting.

Harry, I need your help. Will you please meet me tonight in our den after the girls go to bed? If so, cough once, if not, cough twice. Thanks mate. –-Ron

Harry laughed at his friend's attempt to be inconspicuous, but as Ron requested, Harry put his hand to his mouth and coughed once.

It was 12:30, and Ginny had finally gone to bed after finishing the first day's homework. Harry sat in the den waiting for Ron to show up. Knowing Ron, he had probably fallen asleep, but Harry decided to wait just a bit longer. Harry looked at Teddy playing in the floor with his stuffed broom and snitch. Teddy had apparently decided that tonight was the perfect night to change his sleeping patterns, but Harry and Ginny, after several failed attempts of putting him down at his normal bedtime, decided that Teddy would go to sleep when he was tired, and left it at that. Smiling, Harry pulled out his wand and pointed it at the stuffed snitch. Whispering a spell, Harry watched as the baby's eyes lit up as they followed the toy hovering a few feet in the air.

"Harry?" Ron's voice came from the entrance to his room.

"Hey mate," Harry said as he let the toy float to the floor and walked over and picked up the child. "What's going on?"

Ron looked at Harry nervously. "I'm in love."

Harry chuckled at his best friend. "I know. And?"

Ron sighed. "I want to marry Hermione. I don't want to be an auror, I don't want to fight anymore. I want to come home everyday to my redheaded children and beautiful wife, and I don't want my old life anymore."

Harry watched in surprise as Ron pulled out a small box from his pocket and handed it to Harry. Upon opening the box, Harry found a beautiful engagement ring. I was a small diamond with small blue sapphires on each side, set in sparkling silver. Harry looked at Ron, down at the ring, and then back up at Ron. "You are going to propose?" Harry asked.

Ron nodded. "Yeah, but that is what I need to talk to you about. You see, I already owled Hermione's parents, and they have given me permission to ask her. And now…I have to ask you."

Harry looked at Ron with surprised eyes. "You want to ask me? Ron, what are you talking about?"

"Well," Ron began, "Hermione has told me several times that you are the closest thing to a brother that she has. And you have told me basically the same thing about her. I just thought that I should ask you. So Harry, is it ok with you if I ask Hermione to marry me?"

Harry stared at Ron. He couldn't believe that Ron was asking him. Finally after a few seconds, Harry smiled at his friend. "I…Ron, I think that you and Hermione belong together. I actually think I told you that years ago. So yes, Ron, I give you my permission to marry my…sister."

Ron smiled brightly. "Thanks mate. I'm going to bed. Night, Harry." Ron then ran his and over the soft hair on Teddy's head. "Night, Teddy." With that Ron walked away and to his room, smiling like a fool.

Harry watched after his friend with a matching smile. Harry then looked down at the sleeping child in his arms, gently got up, walked to the nursery, and laid Teddy down in his crib. Looking around the room one more time, Harry blew out the candles and went to his own room.
