I'm carrying this story on because lots of people have said they don't want it to end. One person who reviewed said that I'm wasting my time with pointless drama. I apologise if you think that but it's completely unrealistic that their lives would go on and be all perfect. It's your choice if you read it and if you don't like my story or the way it's going please tell me what I'm doing wrong or just stop reading altogether – it's your choice. I'm sorry you don't like it.

The summer was long and warm in Romania, with highs of 35 degrees. There wasn't a whole lot to do so I spent a lot of my time with Leo, who turned out to be far from 'slightly' musical. He could play the piano, the guitar; he could sing even and write his own music. I spent many an afternoon in the back garden while he attempted to teach me the guitar and sat with his head in his hands when I played the wrong chords or dropped it by accident. Conroy would come and curl up on my lap in the evenings while we all sat around the bonfire in the bottom of the garden. The shed next to us housed a very small recording studio of Leo's, complete with Microphones, a beautiful wooden piano and several coloured guitars.

Before I knew it, I only had a week left and I looked around the beautiful house sadly, already missing it incredibly.

"Will you miss me?" Leo said, bounding down the stairs and eating an apple.

"Nope." I joked, realising that I'd actually come to like him a lot.

"Course you will. You'll go back looking all brown and that boyfriend of your will fall on his knees and beg you to take him back and you'll be all 'nope, I'm in love with a guy from France who plays the guitar' and then Harry Potter will cry."

I raised my eyebrows "Oh, really?"

Leo grinned "Course not; you're obviously not in love with me."

"Obviously."

"Sure about that?" He asked, winking.

"Pretty sure." I laughed.

He smiled "I'll miss you, Ginny Weasley."

I sat beside him "I'll miss you too. You should come over with Charlie one time."

He nodded "I will do, now do you want some breakfast?"

I shook my head "I've already eaten."

"Guitar?"

I shook my head "Piano, today, I think."

"Fair enough." He said, leading me out to the bottom of the garden and into the shed.

The day was spent playing various musical instruments and then Leo sang me a song he'd written about a girl he used to know in France. It included the line 'Your dark brown hair and those bright green eyes' and I was forcefully reminded of Harry Potter.

Charlie had avoided the subject of my ex-boyfriend, but Leo, being as nosy as ever, hadn't really trodden carefully around it. I'd gotten used to talking about him, but I didn't really think about him until then. I had a sudden flashback of the first night we'd kissed each other properly, the way his eyes were shining after winning Quidditch and seeing Teddy and then I realised how much I'd missed him. I'd been so busy, I hadn't really had time to think about him. To my horror, I felt my eyes well up with tears. He was the only boy that could make me cry.

Leo placed his guitar on the floor and came to sit beside me on the piano stool "You Ok?"

I nodded, wiping my eyes "I'm not normally like this, you know. I never cry."

"It's true." Said a voice from the door and I saw a flash of red hair the same shade of mine as Charlie bent over to pluck up a weed "Are you alright, Gin?"

"Yeah." I hiccupped "I'm fine."

"Homesick or Harry-sick?"

Laughed "A bit of both."

Leo smiled and I remembered how amazingly gorgeous he'd looked the first time I'd met him. I'd stopped thinking of him like that now; he was more of another brother, or a best friend.

"Women." He sighed and I aimed a kick at his leg.

He grinned and pulled me up "Come on, let's go and eat."

"Doesn't he remind you of Ron?" Charlie asked as he ran ahead of us, up the garden and into the kitchen "He's always hungry!"

I smiled, "Strangely enough, I miss Ron."

Charlie grinned "Strangely enough, I miss Percy."

I winced "That is strange."

We sat down, ate and then listened to Charlie as he told us all about a new Dragon that had been sent from an unknown source in Scotland.

"Probably Hagrid." I muttered, and Charlie laughed.

"Who's Hagrid?" Leo asked as he cleaned the plates.

And so we set off describing the half Giant who loves dragons and teaches care of magical creatures at my school. Leo looked half amused, half concerned.

"On second thoughts, I'm glad I went to Beauxbatons."

"You think that's bad, you should meet Trelawney." I said, causing Charlie to choke on his orange juice.

The last week sped by and I was packing my suitcases when I heard the front door open and the exclamations of joy from my Mother and Lily downstairs.

"I love it Charlie, how on earth did you find this?" Lily asked, pointing to the picture of the dragon above the mantelpiece.

"I took that myself and Leo produced it. He's good with photography and the season that it's in changes to do with whatever the weather's like outside."

"Leo?" I heard Lily ask and then the voice of the boy in question saying 'That would be me' – just like he had done to me.

I dragged my trunk down the stairs and ran to hug my Mum. Lily grabbed me after a few minutes and hugged me herself.

"How've you been?" She asked, looking at me curiously "You look good."

I smiled "Okay...you know."

She smiled, hugged me again and whispered "I know."

My Mum was being charmed by Leo and I heard an invitation for Christmas. Eventually it was time to leave and I was hugged and kissed by Charlie.

"Come again, the house is dull without you and Leo gets bored."

Leo smiled and hugged me "It's true. See you at Christmas kiddo."

I bent down to stroke Conroy and looked at him severely "Bring him."

He promised to and they both stood on the door waving us off.

We walked out down the lane and then my Mum grabbed one arm, Lily the other and we landed right outside my house after a few moments of near suffocation.

"That was quick." I commented.

"We hate flying, and we've both been able to apparate for years and years so there was just no point." Said Lily, grinning "See you later."

Mum smiled, pulling me inside as I asked "What's happening later?"

"The Potters are coming round for dinner with Hermione, Sirius, Remus, Tonks, Bill and Fleur - To celebrate."

"Oh yeah, Harry's going to be having the time of his life knowing I'm back, isn't he." I said sarcastically.

She frowned "There's something you should know, Ginny. Harry has -"

"GINNY!" Fred and George bellowed, running through the kitchen and picking me up.

"Not seen you since eater you've bloody grown, you used to be a right-"

"Dwarf, and you're looking incredibly-"

"Tanned, did you meet any boys out there, I hope this Leo kept his hands-"

"To himself. Did he Ginny?"

I rolled my eyes "Yes of course he did."

Fred nodded sombrely "That's what I like to hear."

"How many dragons did you see?" Asked Ron, running down the stairs and hugging me "Missed you, kid."

I laughed "A few."

Ron pulled me onto the sofa and began to interrogate me so deeply about all the dragons that I completely forgot about what my Mum had been saying.

The evening was cooler than normal so we ate inside, Lupin and Tonks arriving first with Teddy who was now toddling around happily, sitting himself on my knee and pulling my hair with chubby hands shouting "Fire! Fire!"

I laughed at him "Hello Teddy, how are you."

"Fire! Fire! Mamma, Fire, Dadda Fire!" He shouted, and his own blue hair turned the same bright orange as my own.

Sirius walked through the door, squeezing me almost do death and then picking Teddy up and flying him through the air.

"Evening Weasley, nice to have you back with us." He said, sitting down and plonking a hysterical Teddy on the table in front of him.

Tonks rolled her eyes at me but then looked away as the door opened. Bill and Fleur walked in hand in hand, her glow making the rest of us look diminished. Bill looked incredibly happy and they whispered something before sitting down next to the four empty chairs that were still left. Four? Why four? Hermione was already here...

The door opened again and James came in first, hugging me so tightly that I couldn't see anything else, followed by Lily and then Harry. He looked happier than he had the last time I saw him but still quite pale. His hair was sticking up as usual and I was just about to smile at him when he lead a very pretty girl through the door and I dropped my glass of water all over the floor.

"Who the hell is she?" I snapped at George who winced.

"She's called Emily Felton."

"I know who she is...she's a Ravenclaw in the year below me...what I mean is what the hell is she doing here?"

"She's, erm, Harry's girlfriend."

The glass that I'd just picked up slipped through my hand again but, being the great chaser I was I caught it and slammed it onto the table, as this blonde girl with legs up to her neck and the best skin I'd seen on someone sat herself down next to Fleur looking perfectly at home. This irritated me and the only way I could cheer myself up was by looking from her to the part Veela beside her and realising that Fleur diminished her looks. I prayed that Harry would notice.

The evening went quite slowly and it was quite obvious to those who were paying attention, mainly me, that both Ron and Hermione and Bill and Fleur wanted to say something. Eventually, Ron gathered the balls to stand up. Emily finished her conversation with Sirius in her won time, making Ron shoot her a dirty look. I laughed.

"Erm, just so you all know...I won't be here next week. Me and Hermione have bought a flat in Diagon Alley and we're moving in next week. Erm, yeah."

My Mum's eyes filled with tears and she squealed. Sirius clapped Hermione on the back and grinned while she blushed.

"How've you afforded that?" James asked, placing an arm around his wife.

"I was working all last year, cleaning the Three Broomsticks and the Hogs Head in the morning."

Harry spoke for the first time properly "Oh, so that's what you were doing. We wondered, didn't we Hermione?"

Hermione nodded and the Emily girl sighed huffily. I wanted to slap her very hard across her pink face.

Harry caught me giving her a dirty look and raised his eyebrows. I frowned at him – what exactly did he expect me to do?

Ron sat down and Hermione looked really happy. I was pleased for them, I really was. I was also insanely jealous that they'd found each other and they were unbelievably perfect for one another.

I spent the evening talking to Fred and George and after desert my Mum started handing out coffee. It was then that Bill and Fleur both stood up.

"We've also got some news." He said, smiling "Fleur and I have been trying for a baby since we got married and now, she's pregnant!"

This was too much, Lily and My Mum both burst into tears and hurled themselves at Fleur, bombarding her with questions and congratulations. James slapped Bill on the back and Sirius laughed. Remus and Tonks smiled while my Dad dried his eyes.

"You'll have somebody to play with!" Harry said tickling Teddy who laughed.

Emily frowned "Are these dinners always so emotional?" She asked Harry.

"You didn't have to come." I muttered, folding up a napkin.

"What?" She snapped.

"She said-" Fred said loudly "Don't you think Harry has a nice bum?"

"No I didn't." I snapped, standing up.

"Yes you did." Said George, leading me outside. The cold air hit me and I took a deep breath.

"Who the hell does she think she is? She's obviously only going out with him because he's good in bed."

"Too much information." Fred winced, having followed us out.

I shrugged "I hate her."

George put an arm around me "We know."

"But she won't last." Said Fred, kicking the mud off his boots.

"How come? They looked pretty loved up." I snapped.

"She's not you." Said George simply, messing up my hair.
