| And Chapter 17... Harry was sitting on the landing on the second floor of the Burrow, watching the Weasleys' run past him. The day before, Harry and Ginny had told the family about them. Strangely, Ron had found Harry and Ginny after the family had stopped cheering, and apologized for the way he had shouted at Harry.
Now, Harry was waiting for Ginny to get dressed as they were going out for the morning.
“Gin? Are you ready yet? We're gonna be late!” Harry called through the door. It opened a crack and Ginny's head appeared around the door frame.
“Harry, I can't decide what to wear... Come help as you know where we're going..” and Ginny's head disappeared again.
So, Harry stood up and pushed the door open to walk through. Ginny's room was exactly like Ginny in Harry's opinion. Bright and perfect. And there in the corner was Ginny, wrapped up tight in a towel and searching through a wardrobe.
“I can't decide what to wear... And as i don't know where we're going...” She said, glancing over her shoulder as Harry shut the door.
“Well, I'm not going to tell you. So i'll have to help you choose.” Harry smiled at her. “What are you having trouble choosing from?” he asked as he sat down on the end of Ginny's bed.
Ginny threw a pair of black skinny jeans, a black pencil skirt, a strapless red knee high dress and two red tops at Harry, who thought carefully.
“I think you should wear the dress with the jeans underneath.” Harry said handing them over.
Taking the clothes she said “Fine. You'll have to go outside for a couple of minutes while i get dressed though, then come back in.” Harry walked out and re- took his seat on the floor. As he sat there, Harry watched as Ron and Hermione walked past him laughing at George who was supporting a black eye and Fred who was wearing a large white beard.
Once they were downstairs, Mrs Wealsey's shouts echoed up the stairs. Then Ginny's head appeared round he door frame announcing that Harry could come back in.
As Harry walked in, he saw Ginny. Her hair and make- up was done so perfectly, it looked like a painting standing in front of Harry.
“Can you zip me up?” Ginny asked as she turned her back on him. Harry stepped forwards and pulled on the zipper. She smelt like vanilla, and Harry watched her in the mirror as she put on her earrings.
“What?” Ginny said as she looked up at the mirror. Harry put his hands round her waist and pulled her closer.
“You look amazing” He whispered in her ear. She smiled and pulled herself out of his grip.
“I'll be ready when i found my shoes...” she said as she started to search under the bed.
“Oh, i almost forgot!” Harry said as he sat down on the bed, and stood up straight away. “Wait here..” and before Ginny could say another word, Harry had left the room.
Harry climbed right the way up to Ron's room and dived for his trunk. Pulling out his Invisibility Cloak, Harry found what he was looking for. He picked up the two parcels and slipped the third into his pocket.
Ginny was waiting for Harry, and was just about to start looking for her shoes again when Harry entered the room.
“What was that all about?” Ginny asked, with a confused look on her face.
“I almost forgot about these..” Harry said as he placed the packages on the bed.
Ginny's jaw dropped a little. “Oh, Harry!” She said as she flung herself at him. “Thank you!”
“You don't even know what they are yet!” Harry said as Ginny let go of him. He sat down on the bed and picked up one of the parcels. “This one first.” he said, smiling. Ginny looked at Harry as she sat down. She took the parcel from him and started to open it. Out fell a black jacket. Embroidered on one of the pockets was the word 'Ginny'. Ginny looked at it and then stood up. Harry took it off her and held it up for her to put it on. It fit perfectly.
“Oh, Harry” Ginny said again as she examined her reflection in the mirror. “It's wonderful.”
“Well, i had it made for you... On the inside it says 'Ginny, You are my world. I Will Always Love You, No Matter What. Harry'” Harry said as she read it. She looked up at him and Harry noticed that her eyes had teared up.
“Don't cry... You'll ruin your make- up!” Harry said quickly as he turned to pick up the other package. “Here, open this one” He said turning round to her again.
Ginny opened it and picked up a pair of strappy red heel. This time, when she hugged Harry, e almost fell over by the force that she hit him with.
“Wow, Gin, calm down!” He said as he looked down at her. She let him go and sat on the bed, a single tear running down her cheek. As she pulled the shoes on, they tightened round her ankle. She looked up at Harry, shocked.
“It's okay, they're supposed to do that...” Harry said smiling down at her and wiping away the tear. “I bought them last week when we went to Diagon Alley” He explained as Ginny stood up and walked across the room.
“Now, can we go? Or we really will be late!” Harry said as Ginny picked up her bag from the chair and opened the door. I Hope You Like It...
