Chapter 13- I'm ready
Okay guys, here's the next chapter that I hope you have been waiting for! Sorry that I haven't updated in a few days, been busy with even more homework and a lot more detentions. I apologize, as usual for mistakes and I own nothing. I am trying to finish this fanfic tonight as I have many ideas for songfics swimming around in my head. This is the chapter that includes the song 'Again' by Natasha Bedingfield which gave me the inspiration for this whole story. Thank you for the positive reviews; it gives me a massive buzz to see that you all like this story so much! Please review and hope you enjoy this chapter.

As Harry ran at full speed towards the large lake of which was a trademark feature of Hogwarts, all of his thought were on the one he loved; Ginny Weasley. As many thoughts raced through his mind, a few many one stuck in his brain. All he kept thinking was about his second year when he had first saved her life.
'Hands over my head, thinking what else could go wrong,'
He remembered the feeling in the pit of his stomach when he had found out that Ginny had been taking into the Chamber to die and how the similar feeling was now burning with in him once again.
'Would have stayed in bed, how can the day be so long,'
He kept running, as tears burned from his angered eyes and the stitch in his side became almost unbearable.
'Never believe, that things happen for a reason'
He started punishing himself inside for not being able to point out his suspicions sooner as it could have saved her life which was now, once again, in terrible danger.
'But how this turned out, removed all my doubt, so believe…'
Images flashed into his mind as his breathing deepened and his pace quickened. Images of Ginny lying cold and pale on the floor of the chamber. Remembering how he had felt and how his was so oblivious to know that he had the feeling he had felt was the start of falling in love. This made him even more determined.
'That for you I'd do it all over again,
I'd do it all over again,
All I went through, it led me to you,
So I'd do it all over again,'
He remembered how he had felt when he couldn't get through the barrier to platform 9 ¾ from the muggle world as it had been blocked by Dobbie. He remembered how Ron was threating about his parents not being able to get back and how they would get back to Hogwarts whereas Harry was really thinking about Ginny, and hoping she had go onto the train safely with no problems.
'I missed the first train, stood out in the rain all day,
Little did I know,'
He remembered how, when he had finally gotten to school, Ginny had given him a singing valentine card which although kind of embarrassed him, he treasured in a box under his bed.
'When I caught the next train, that you were to sweep me away,
Guess that's what I waited for,'
He started to wonder what would happen if Ginny had never been taken to the chamber.
'Never believe that things happen for a reason,'
What if she had never been possessed by the diary? Would he have still fallen in love with her?
'But how this turned out removed all my doubt, so believe…'
He kept on running even as his vision became blurred with tears, hate, anger and determination. He was just under half way there and still his thoughts remained on the young redheaded girl that he had known almost all his life and had treasured so dearly.
'That for you I'd do it, all over again,
I'd do it all over again,
All I went through, led me to you,
So I'd it all over again,'
Then he remembered how he had saved her life.
'Who ever thought a day gone so wrong would turn out so lovely?'
He remembered how relieved he was to finder her still alive even though her life was being sucked out of her, she could still have a chance of survival.
'So glad I found you,'
He remembered how all the attacks had been adding up. How he had been accused by so many people of the evil deed. How scared he had been when he heard that Ginny had been taking to face her death. And how if it had never happened- he may never have fallen in love. He may never have found something to fight for. He may never have found something to live for.
'Even though the day went so wrong,
I wouldn't change a thing…'
He was closer now. His heart rate speeding up as his pace slowed due to lack of energy.
'I'd do it all over again,
Yeah, I'd do it all over again (over again),
All I went through, led me to you (led me to you),
So, I'd do it all over again,'
"Must keep going: for Ginny." Harry kept repeating as he drew nearer to his destination, not wanting to give up the fight for his love.
'I'd do it all over again,
Yeah, I'd it all over again (all over again),
All I went through (went through), led me to you (led me to you),
I'd do it all over again,'
He finally got to the edge of the lake after what felt like hours of running although it had only been minuets. He looked up into the sky to see the glowing sun turn red as it ducked behind the trees of the forest.
'Who ever thought a day gone so wrong could turn out so lovely?'
Harry looked down to see a trail of blood leading to the water. There it was. Floating in the water. Although it looked crooked and wavy, there was no doubt about what he was seeing. The dark mark. It was reflecting into the water as Harry slowly stepped in. He was ready.
'Who ever thought a day gone so wrong could turn out so lovely?'
