The Order of the Phoenix Headquarters

Called Meeting

4 September 2000

6:20 PM

"I know all of you are curious as to why I have called this meeting. I assume all of you know I went to visit Ginny?" Harry started the meeting

"We all know, what do you have to tell us?" McGonagall asked.

"Not tell, show." he said simply as he brought out the pensive. The Order had curious looks on their faces as he pulled out a memory and placed it in the empty pensive.

"After you." he gestured. He followed them in and explained along the way what had happened and why. He was embarrassed he had even raised a hand.

"My daughter is with him?" was all Arthur Weasley could say before sitting down next to his wife and comforting her.

All the Weasley brothers were red-faced and furious. The only thing on their minds were thoughts of killing Snape. Remus Lupin looked calm, but a little angry. Everyone was doing surprisingly well for having just been told, in a sense, that Dumbledore ordered his death without the knowledge of most the staff and Order.

Harry tip-toed to his room and lay on the bed, clutching a picture of Ginny and him by the lake at Hogwarts. A few minutes later there was a soft knocking.

"Come in." Harry whispered.

"Are you going to be okay?" Hermione asked as she sat on the edge of the bed.

"I don't know?" he said despairingly.

"Well, at least you're honest. Harry, you do realize that she won't be coming back, don't you?" she asked cautiously.

"She has to come back." was all he said.

Hermione was shocked by his response, she expected him to yell, but he lay there looking defeated.

"I'm with you, all you have to do is ask and I'll be here for you." she whispered as she backed out of the room.


"Ginny?" Severus whispered.

"Yes?" she whispered back.

"I love you more than anything. I'd do anything for you, don't ever forget that." he said quietly in her ear.

"I never will." she promised.

As she pledged her love, Lord Voldemort came out of the shadows. He smirked before pulling out his wand and killing Severus. He turned to her, but she woke up before he killed her.

She sat up, sweating from her nightmare. Her breath was coming in short, shallow gasps.

"Ginny?" Severus whispered from beside her on the couch.

"NO! Don't say anything else! Please don't!" she sobbed into his shoulder.

"Shh! It's alright. I'm here for you." he whispered yet again.

"We need to go!" she pleaded with him desperately.

"Why?" he asked now both concerned and confused.

"Just trust me." she said standing up.

"I do." he promised, standing up as well.

"Good." she said before apparating to The Order of the Phoenix Headquarters.

A/N: I'm sorry for the wait and the length or rather the lack of. Sorry!
