AN: Sorry I have taken so long to update. Anyway as much as I wish it I do not own Harry Potter. :( Hope you enjoy.
'I'll see you later bug.' Chris said as he gave Teddy a hug bye.
'Bye Chris.' Teddy said with a smile.
'It really was nice meeting you Ginny; I look forward to you coming to some practices with bug here.' Chris said giving her a hug goodbye.
'You better not lose this one I like her.' Chris said giving Harry a hand shake.
'I will see you in a couple days.' Harry said waving as Chris left the change room.
It was now only Harry, Ginny and Teddy left in the changing room as Ginny was packing all of her stuff up.
'What do you want to do now?' Harry asked Ginny as he lifted Teddy off the hanger he was trying to swing on.
'I don't know. Hermione and Ron said they were going to be going out to the movies and then they would meet us at the manor for dinner at 6:30.' Ginny informed Harry.
'Ok then how about we do some shopping then. We can go to muggle London.' Harry said wanting to do something.
'That sounds like fun; Teddy is there anywhere you want to go?' Ginny asked Teddy as they left the changing room.
'R' Us, R' Us' Teddy shouted.
'He means toys r' us.' Harry said after Ginny gave him a confused look.
'Where is that I didn't know there was a store called toy's r' us.' Ginny said.
'Teddy and I normally go to a muggle mall. It is one building that has hundreds of stores.' Harry said not really surprised that Ginny didn't know what a mall was.
'What kind of stores?' Ginny questioned thinking that this was too good to be true.
'Every kind,' Harry informed her.
'Shoes?' 'Ice Cream?' 'Clothing stores?' For the nest ten minutes Ginny kept listing off stores that she thought the mall didn't have, yet Harry kept telling her that they were all there.
'Ok if this place is as good as it sounds where is it?' Ginny questioned excited to go to the mall.
'London,' Harry replied.
'And how are we getting to London?' Ginny asked.
'Portkey,' Harry said as he pulled an actual key out of his pocket.
'It is a family heirloom. It goes anywhere the owner wants or needs it to go, as long as there aren't wards up. Plus it isn't illegal.' Harry added making sure Teddy had a good grip on the key.
Harry then thought of an alley near the mall, and soon all three felt the tug at the navel and were off.
"Oomph" Ginny said as she lost her balance and fell. Ginny looked up to see both Harry and Teddy standing and waiting for her to get up.
"Here," Harry said holding out his hand to help Ginny up.
"Thanks Harry, I can never mange to stick the landing.' Ginny said with a laugh.
"I always start to bend my knees when it feels like we are slowing down. That way it is easy to stay standing." Harry said as he turned to look at Teddy.
"Ok, Teddy we are going to a muggle place, what are the rules?" Harry said in a stern voice.
"No changing my hair colour, I have to stay with you, and no breaking things." Teddy said with a pout, he always hoped that one day his dad would forget to tell him the rules.
"Good, and maybe after we do a little shopping then we can get some ice cream." Harry said as the three headed out of the alley.
"Ya, ice cream!" Teddy shouted happily.
"So where is the mall and I don't have any muggle money." Ginny said remembering that all she had was gallons and sickles in her purse.
"Ginny when have I ever let you pay for anything?" Harry said as he held her hand.
"Right I forgot I was dating Mr. Generous." Ginny said, her heart leaping at the thought that she was dating him.
"Don't you mean engaged." Harry whispered sending shivers down her back.
Ginny turned her head so she was facing Harry, "That's right engaged." And then Ginny kissed Harry right there in the middle of the street.
"EWW" Teddy screamed when he saw his parents kissing.
"Daddy that's gross." Teddy said making Harry and Ginny break apart.
"Would you like a kiss as well Teddy Bear?" Ginny said with a twinkle in her eye.
"No mommy kisses are gross." Teddy exclaimed, but it was too late because Ginny had picked a squirming Teddy up and gave him a big kiss.
As Teddy tried to wipe the kiss off Harry informed them that they were here. Ginny looked up to see a huge building that looked to be about three stories high.
"This is it, it's huge." Ginny said putting Teddy down and holding one of his hands, not wanting him to get lost.
"It seems even bigger inside, now come on." Harry said taking her hand and walking Teddy and Ginny into the mall.
If you asked Ginny what kind of a girl she was she would tell you tomboy; living with six older brothers made sure of that. That didn't mean that she didn't like to do girly things as well. Sure she loved playing quidditch and didn't care if she was to get dirty, but she also loved to get dressed up every once and an awhile and she loved shopping. That is why as Ginny stood in the entrance of the mall all she could think was that she was in heaven. There were shops all around her, above her, hallways and hallways of stores.
"You do realize that we will be coming back here whenever we need to do shopping." Ginny said to Harry without turning to him.
Laughing Harry replied, "Whatever you want Gin."
"Come on guys we don't have a lot of time before we have to met Hermione and Ron at the manor." Ginny said pulling Teddy and Harry in a random direction.
Harry, Ginny and Teddy spent the rest of the afternoon just enjoying the time they spent together. Ginny made Harry get a couple new shirts that she said looked amazing on him. She also had Teddy get few pairs of shoes because all the ones he had now were dirty. Ginny had made Harry and Teddy wait with her as she tried on some shoes; after half an hour there Ginny only bought one pair, the first one she tried on. Then as a treat Harry brought Ginny into one of the high fashion shops and let her by a whole outfit.
The only problem that happened was when Ginny wanting to go into a sport place to see some of the muggle sport items. "Gin Teddy and I are banned from here, we can't be here." Harry whispered as he walked in the store with Ginny.
"And why would you be banned?" Ginny questioned.
Harry looked at Teddy as if telling him that he should be telling the story. When Teddy didn't say anything Harry told Ginny the story. "Well Ted wasn't behaving after I told him he couldn't have some more ice cream. Anyway to show how mad he was had a slight tantrum." Harry said not wanting to go into it any further.
"What did he break?" Ginny said with her hands on her hips.
"He broke a boat and an anchor." Harry said.
Ginny turned on Teddy, "How can you break a boat?"
"Drop an anchor on it." Teddy said in a tone that suggested that was a stupid question.
"Boys," was all Ginny said. Without looking back at Harry and Teddy she left the store shaking her head, Harry and Teddy just followed.
It was now 6:15 so Harry, Ginny and Teddy had to leave if they were going to be on time for dinner. The three of them went to a deserted place behind the mall where Harry then pulled out the Portkey and a few seconds later they were at Potter Manor.
"Hello Ron, Hermione anyone home?" Ginny yelled once they landed in the living room.
"Mistress Ginny, Hermione and Ronald are in the kitchen," said Mittens, one of the older house elves.
"Thank you Mittens, would you mind taking these bags up and putting them in our room." Harry said noticing Ginny's smile get bigger when he said 'our room'.
"Of course Master Harry, Mittens will do so now." Mittens said taking the bags and leaving with a loud crack.
Teddy had left the living room as soon as he heard Uncle Ron and Aunt Mione were in the kitchen so it was just Harry and Ginny left.
"I really like the sound of that our room." Ginny said as she walked closer to Harry so that they were only inches apart.
"And I really like saying it. How would you like to go up to our room?" Harry said huskily. Ginny could see Harry's eyes turn a darker green as he spoke.
"How would you like to see what I bought when you and Teddy went to the washroom?" Ginny seductively said.
To answer her question Harry crashed his mouth against hers, picked her up so Ginny had to wrap her legs around his torso. Harry had started walking to the stairs when they heard someone cough.
"You know mate I know you love her and all that but I really don't want to see that. I mean she is my sister." Ron said looking away as Harry put Ginny down and they fixed their clothes.
"Bloody Hell Ron has anyone ever told you that you have terrible timing." Ginny said as she walked passed him to the kitchen.
"Great catch Harry, although both Hermione and Ginny were as white as a sheet. Hermione didn't look very happy." Ron said warning Harry.
"Thanks Gin already told me off I guess its Hermione's turn now." Harry said as he and Ron headed into the kitchen.
"Harry James Potter, what were you thinking you could have gotten killed? What if you didn't pull up in time? Quidditch is just a game you are not allowed to die for a game." Hermione said then she pulled Harry into a hug almost as strong as Mrs. Weasley's.
"Hermione let him breath, beside it's his job to catch the snitch he wouldn't have gone into the dive if he didn't know how to pull out of it." Ron said and soon Hermione and Ron were bickering about how dangerous quidditch really was.
"I have never met two people who fight as much." Ginny commented as she sat down at the table beside Harry.
"I know what you mean they can fight for awhile." Harry said as Ron and Hermione sat down still fighting.
"Guys, guys" Ron and Hermione looked at him. "Can you stop fighting just until we finish dinner?" Harry said as one of the elves served dinner.
"We're not fighting" Ron and Hermione said at the same time as they looked at Harry.
Ginny was laughing at Harry's shocked face. "Fine fine, you're not fighting," Harry mumbled, wondering what their idea of fighting was.
"So what did you guys do after the match?" Hermione asked Ginny.
"Harry took us to a mall. It was so much fun but we hardly made a dent in the mall, I mean do you know how many stores there are in that place." Ginny exclaimed.
Hermione just laughed. "I know I love going shopping," Hermione gushed.
Soon Ginny and Hermione were talking very fast about their favourite stores and such. Ron looked like he had no idea about what was being said so he started to talk with Harry and Teddy about quidditch and flying. After dinner was done Teddy ran upstairs to the game room because he was starting to find what the adults were talking about to be boring. Harry and Ron retreated to the sitting room to play some chess, while Hermione and Ginny sat at the table with their tea discussing girl things.
"Knight to E4, umm listen mate Gin and I were talking last night about who we wanting in the wedding party." Harry said not really looking at Ron.
Ron was expecting this Ginny had told him that when she got married he would be a groom's man. "Really have you decided anything?" Ron asked not taking his eyes away from the chess board.
"Yes we actually have. So listen Ron I don't really have many guy friends. With the war and stuff I didn't have time to make friends other then Hermione. I do have friends I wouldn't have made it through the war without them, but what I am trying to say is that I don't have a best mate. Or at least I didn't."At this Ron looked up, this isn't how you ask someone to be a grooms man.
"I guess what I am trying to say is that I think of you has my best friend so who you be my best man?" Harry asked looking at Ron.
Shock; that was what Ron was in right now shock. Growing up Ron really didn't have many friends; he had brothers and people he hung out with but never a best mate. Every since the dinner at the Burrow Ron looked at Harry as his friend; if Ron was being real with himself he would say that Harry had become his best mate. What Ron never expected was that Harry would also think that he was his best mate as well.
"I understand if you don't-" Ron realized that he had taken too long to reply so Harry assumed the worst.
"No... I mean yes I would be honoured... I just never thought you would ask me." Ron said.
"Oh Thank Merlin... you had me nervous for a second there." Harry said as he gave Ron a manly hug in thanks.
"No problem mate. So who is going to be Ginny's Maid of Honour?" Ron asked now curious.
"I am not allowed to say Gin wants her to be the first to know." Harry said.
"So what is a best man suppose to do?" Ron asked now that the shock had mostly warned off.
"Not too sure but you will have to help with the planning of the wedding, plan the bachelor party, make a speech at the dinner, oh and make sure I make it to the altar." Harry said thinking.
"So a lot," Ron concluded.
"Ya, a lot," Harry said with a laugh.
Ron and Harry played a few more games, Harry losing all of them, before they went to bed. Ron went straight into Hermione's room and Harry went to check on Teddy, whom Ginny had out to sleep a few hours ago.
After Harry could see Teddy's small chest rise and fall he closed the door part way. Harry quickly got ready for bed before he got into the bed where Ginny was sleeping. Once Harry was under the covers Ginny moved closer to him and Harry wrapped his arms around her falling into a peaceful sleep.
