"Alright, please be back by midnight. Don't get too drunk, please. Ginny I want you to watch Harry closely!" Molly waved as the kids left the house. They weren't kids anymore but to her they would always be her kids. No matter how much they grow up, no matter how many kids they have, they'd always be her kids. They apparated to a pub right outside Bristol. Ginny's arm was linked with Harry, and Hermione's with Ron. Harry gave Ron a subtle nod and they entered the pub. Harry kept his head down. He really didn't want to be recognized tonight. It was going to be his first night of fun since the battle and he didn't want any fan girls or reporters to ruin it. If only that wish came true.

"Hello. How about we start you lot off with a drink." The waitress said to them with a pad of parchment in her hand.

"Um, Can I just have a butter beer?" Ginny asked fingers intertwined with Harry's.

"I'll have a butter beer too." Hermione said with Ron's arm around her shoulder.

"Well, I'm going to have a firewhiskey." Ron said looking around at the table.

"Same, firewhiskey, please." Harry said laughing at Ron's awkwardness.

"Okay I'll go get those drinks for you." The waitress left the group to themselves.

"How long do you think we can stay here before reporters find us?" Ron said with a sly grin.

"Ron, don't jinx it. Harry already is keeping his head down. Something Ginny should learn to do." Hermione said glances at Ginny. Ginny didn't realize what Hermione said until the waitress served them their drinks. They nodded their head to her before she left. Then Ginny's scowling started. "What?" Hermione asked innocently.

"That wasn't funny, Hermione."

"Am I the only one here who is confused." Ron said to Harry while pointing to the girls. Harry shook his head. He didn't want to tell Ron that he knew what all of it was about. He didn't want to cause a scene, and with a scene you get reporters, and with reporters you get an article in the Daily Prophet, and with an article you get to explain what happened to the entire Weasley family who wasn't there in person to see

"Ooh, Harry. Look! It's Luna Lovegood! Let's go talk to her! Don't worry you two, we'll be back." Ginny winked at Hermione and took Harry away from the table. Hermione nodded then looked at Ron.

"Hey Luna! I haven't seen you in forever!" Ginny said hugging her friend.

"Hey Ginny! I've been busy with my father. Did you know how hard it is to get anyone out of Azkaban! I swear the guards there must have Wrackspurts in their brains. Maybe I should send them the potion I made." She turned to Harry, "Did it work for you?"

"Yeah it helped Harry a lot. He's not drinking anymore." Ginny said smiling at Harry.

"What about the smoking? Wrackspurts usually cause people to feel like they can inhale anything but oxygen."

"We're working on that, still." Ginny said her smile faded a little when she said that. She was almost certain that Harry smoked when he left to go get changed. But she was going to talk to him about that later.

"Oh well I'll send you some more potion. It will help cure your problems faster."

"Okay, Luna. And I'm sorry about your father. I think it was my fault he's in Azkaban." At first Luna was surprised Harry spoke up.

"No. Daddy told me about it. He said he was the one who said You-Know-Who's name because he was going to turn you in for me. But I told him I wasn't worth that. Plus you saved me from You-Know-Who himself. I can't thank you enough, Harry." Harry nodded but he couldn't help but feel guilty about it. "Well, I have to go. I have a meeting with Minister Shacklebolt in a half hour. He said he'll help me get Dad out of there. It was nice talking to the both of you. Ginny, don't forget to owl me soon! Maybe we could meet up sometime."

"Of course, Luna. That would be lovely." Luna waved goodbye and apparated to the Ministry. Ginny turned to Harry with one eyebrow cocked up.

"Did you seriously take the potion Luna gave you?" Harry shook his head.

"No, I just put it in a cabinet. I haven't touched it since. It told me to stick my hands in freezing water and when I can't feel them anymore all the Wrackspurts or Nargles or whatever is gone."

"You know that means, your body is slowly but surely freezing itself right?" Harry laughed and nodded his head.

"I know, Gin. Another reason why I threw it in that cabinet." Ginny laughed and almost started to walk back to the table until she saw Ron and Hermione in a full on snog session.

"Maybe we should just stay here for a bit."

"What why would we- oh…" Harry looked back at her and chuckled.

"Harry don't act all grossed out. It's their first kiss since their first kiss. If that makes sense. In other words, they have only kissed once. Please don't screw it up for them."

"I'm not going to even go close to them right now. It's still a little surreal that they're even together, let alone snogging."

"Well then what should we do?"

"Well, maybe we should find a table of our own. I don't like standing here awkwardly."

"Harry, sitting or standing your awkward."

"Oi!"

"Oh, I'm just kidding Harry. You know I love you!"

"I know. And I love you too." They walked, with Harry's arm around Ginny's waist, while Ginny had one arm around his waist and one hand on his chest."

"Here let's just sit here and wait for them to finish." Harry said pointing to an empty table.

"You know if they don't finish any time soon. Maybe we should just bail. I think this whole going out as a group thing has changed to two couples going out on two separate dates." Ginny said playing with a napkin that was set on the table.

"Which isn't a bad thing." Ginny looked up into Harry's eyes. Does he mean that? Wait, is he trying to tell me something…Ginny thought but before she knew it, they were both leaning in. They kissed. This time the kiss did taste like firewhiskey and butter beer. Again, it wasn't a bad thing. They broke apart to take a breath, but were still about an inch apart.

"There's the silver lining I've been looking for." Ginny whispered, her hand was now on the back of his neck and his hand was on her cheek. They kissed again but this time it was more passionate than the first. It felt like it could never be stopped. Until….


The Savior has found his Princess

Here at the Daily Prophet are very surprised to announce that the alleged relationship between out savior and the common girl has been proved. One of our reporters was having a drink after work last was so very lucky to have his camera with him. And even more lucky that Harry James Potter, Hermione Jean Granger, Ronald Billius Weasley, and Ginevra Molly Weasley to stop by that exact pub. "I stopped by just to have my weekly drink and I spotted four kids at a table, one with bushy brown hair,[Hermione Jean Granger] a boy with red hair, [Ronald Billius Weasley] a girl with red hair, [Ginevra Molly Weasley] and lastly a boy with black hair and glasses [Harry James Potter]. I knew that that boy was the Savior of course. He was keeping his head down the entire time. Until the redhead girl took him to a blonde girl. [Believed to be Xenophilius Lovegood's daughter] They hugged the girl and spoke to her for a while. I looked back at the other part of the Golden Trio and there they were snogging up a storm. But back to the Savior. He and the girl looked back at their friends and noticed their little romance. They then sat at another table and started to snog her. [Picture above] I sneaked a picture and left." But why would be like her above all the other witches and wizards in the world? The question will be unanswered until we can ambush him with an interview. More reports soon.


"Looks like you have another cult to look over your shoulder for." George said smirking at Harry. Harry had come over to the Burrow for lunch. The stupid article seemed to be the topic since he arrived.

"That's not funny, George. Harry and Ginny were just publicly humiliated to the entire Wizarding world." Angelina was completely surprised by George's behavior.

"Hey, at least I don't want to hurt Harry. That's all Percy, Charlie, and Bill. Hey, maybe even Ron."

"Thanks George…" Harry said staring at his food.

"Don't worry mate, me and George. Plus Mum and Dad are all on your side." Ron said clapping his hand on his back.

"You all are acting like a war is going to break out as soon as the rest of the family comes home from work." Angelina said rolling her eyes.

"That's because there might be a war. Think about it, Angie. They are the protective brothers of the family. Bill is curse breaker at Gringotts; he knows more curses than Mad-eye Moody did. Charlie tames bloody dragons for a living. And Percy will just team up with them because they're older." George said putting up his hands like he was surrender.

"Still, let Harry be. He didn't do anything wrong." George shrugged it off. Until four other redheaded men entered the room.

"Harry…"
