Chapter 14- Safe in your arms
Thanks for the reviews, as I say all of the time, I love getting them! I think this may be the last chapter guys and I am actually quite sad to see it end as lots of effort has gone into this. I'm also quite proud of myself as I normally give up on storied half way through as I think my work always turns out to be quite cheesy and dragging. Please review and I hope you enjoy this final chapter as much as you have the others and the rest of the story. Thank you so much.
There she was. Ginny. She was unconscious on the old, familiar, greyish-green damp floor. Her body was limp and pale, contrasting with the darkened room. Once again, her worst nightmares had come true. She was back in the Chamber of Secrets.
She lay there, helpless as tears ran down her fading face that glowed in the darkness. All she thought about was…Harry. She wished she had listened to him. She wished she had chosen him over Dean. She wished she had never accepted the necklace from Dean. She wished Harry would save her once again.
"Why would he save me? I was so horrid to him! I deserve to die!" Ginny thought as she remembered how much she had hurt the boy…no…man she had once, still and always loved. Her thoughts froze as she heard footsteps walking closer to her weak, unconscious body.
"Well, well, well. Ginevra Weasley. I guess you're so Precious Potter isn't here to save you now.He was right to be suspicious of me. Especially after you kissed." Dean sneered as he kicked her dying body, "That's right, Ginevra, I saw you. And now, both of you will pay!" He bellowed evilly but then there was a sudden crash.
"STEP AWAY FROM HER!" the unmistakeable voice of Harry shouted as the sound of his running footsteps and his fierce words echoed off the darkened walls.
"Aha Potter! Come to save your damsel in distress, how noble of you!" Dean glared at Harry who had his wand drawn, clutched so tightly in his hand that his knuckles turned white.
Those were the last words heard before their violent duel began. It didn't last long before a large flash of green light from the killing curse bounced of the large, damp walls. All that was heard was an ear piercing scream.
Ginny came round, gasping for air as Harry ran quickly towards her body that was still lying on the floor. She turned her head to see the crumpled, hardly existent body of Dean Thomas, her once beloved boyfriend, lying in a heap in the corner of the dimly light room.
She tried to get up but failed as her body flopped back down to the cold, flooded floor. She shut her eyes as her whole body writhed with pain while her head was being lifted onto someone's lap.
She looked up in shock to see Harry beaming down at her, his gorgeous emerald eyes full of love and concern. She gave him a weak smile as she whispered, "Harry, you saved me"
"Of course I did," he smiled as he smoothed hair out of her face, "I love you Gin"
Thrilling shivers ran down her spine as they always did when he called her that name as well as shivers of cold making Harry hold her tighter.
"I love you too, Harry James Potter" She croaked as she leant up and kissed him then soon fell asleep in his arms.
"You know, that day, in my second year, when you got taken to the Chamber," Harry whispered lightly in her ear although her already knew she was asleep, "I vowed that day that, if necessary, I would do that, all over again…for you."
He leant down and kissed her sleeping lips, finally happy with the love of his life wrapped in his arms, forever.
The End!
