Harry
After Ginny left, Harry took a quick shower, pulled on some clothes and apparated to the Ministry. Upon arriving, he was met by Ryder Johnson, a hotshot American just a couple years older than Harry. He went to school at the American version of Hogwarts, Ilvermorny, and was offered a position here in London after he finished school.
"Potter glad you could finally join us." Johnson said as he shook Harry's hand.
"Sorry, I had my girlfriend over for breakfast when I received the owl. It took me a few minutes to get her to gather her things and say goodbye. As you can imagine, this dark mark scare has me shook up a bit." Harry replied with a grin.
"Ah I see. Well not to worry, we'll be working together to get to the bottom of this." he responds.
The two set out to the scene of the crime and begin our investigation.
Later that afternoon, they returned to the office to complete our reports. Turns out it was a couple of kids just messing around with an old spell book they'd found in their parents' attic. The pair made sure they knew never to use that spell again for fear of a panic spurred riot in the streets of London. Harry finished his report and headed home to change for dinner at the Weasleys'.
He changed from his work robes into some casual trousers and button down shirt and then apparate to the lane that runs in front of the Burrow.
As he walk closer, Harry spotted a red blur darting toward him. Before he knew it, that red blur crashes into him and it took him a minute to realize that it was his sweet Ginny. They fell to the ground in a heap and he wrapped his arms around her and kissed her forehead.
"Well hello there! Did someone miss me?" Harry inquired. Immediately he sees her cheeks turn the cutest shade of red. She shakes her head in response and he just smiles fondly. Harry hauls them both back onto their feet and then he pulls her into a long, steamy kiss. After a couple minutes she pulls away, their breathing now irregular. They looked at each other for a second, dazed, and then walk hand in hand to the Burrow.
"So how was your day?" she asks casually, though he knows she is dying to know what pulled me into work.
"Well, it started really wonderfully when I woke to the most beautiful girl sleeping in my arms. Then I was called into work during the weekend which upset me because I had to send said girl home. I arrived at work and was debriefed on the situation, which turned out to be some children playing with old spell books. But now I am here with my beautiful girl once again in my arms." When he has finished, she looks up at Harry with the sweetest look which makes him grin like a madman. He kisses her cheek and they arrived in the garden. Teddy spots Harry right away and starts barreling toward him. Right before he tackles Harry, he scoops up the small boy and hugs him close. Soon, he starts to squirm so he then hands him off to Ginny and goes to greet Molly and the rest of the gang.
"Harry! How wonderful to see you my dear boy! Ginny tells me the two of you had a lovely evening yesterday." Mrs. Weasley says as she bustles about the small, cluttered kitchen.
Harry ducks his head and replies "Ah.. yes we did." He looks at her sheepishly then continues "I'm quite fond of that beautifully, stubborn woman." Molly just gives him a knowing look then goes back to stirring a giant bubbling pot.
Just then George comes trudging down the steps. Harry looks to him and smiles gently. "Hey George, how are you? It's been awhile." George walks up and shakes Harry's hand. "Hey mate, I'm surviving. Heard you and Ginny been getting along well eh?" he says changing the subject before the evening became too heavy. Harry could see the pain in his eyes though. He knows that half of George is no longer around and there is no forgetting it either.
"Yeah it's been good. Really good." he replies with a grin.
Soon Mrs. Weasley rings the dinner bell and everyone gathers around the big round table. Mr. Weasley flicks his wand and everyone is served hearty portions of chicken stew. A basket of biscuits is passed around and everyone dives into their steaming bowls. Harry was in heaven, he was shoveling food into his mouth with one hand and was holding Ginny's sweet little fingers in his other. Ginny looks at him with her big, warm eyes and just smiles the happiest of smiles.
Later after everyone had stuffed themselves with stew, biscuits and apple pie, Ginny took Teddy upstairs to get him ready for bed. Harry followed her and watched from the doorway as Ginny wrestled on the tiny boy's pajamas. Teddy spots Harry and manages to squirm away from her grip. Harry scoops him up, blows bubbles on his bare tummy, and sets him back down in front of Ginny.
"Now sit still for Ginny to get you ready for bed." Harry commands the small child. Teddy does as he is told and soon he is tucked in his bed, fast asleep. Outside the bedroom door, Ginny stops Harry and pulls him to her for a long, sweet kiss. They pull apart and Ginny says, "I love watching you with Teddy. It makes me think of the future, what it'll be like if we have kids." Harry stares at her amazed. "I cannot wait for the day when you give me beautiful redhead babies." he replies warmly. They share one last kiss, then hand in hand they return to the living room with the rest of the Weasley gang.
