    Summary

    In hindsight, Ginny wasn't sure which event of her first year at Hogwarts had the biggest impact on her life. Was it her sorting? Or the chamber of secrets thing? Or was it Ron's reaction to these? In any case, what she was sure about was that she wouldn't change a thing. If she did, she might not have the wonderful man she had by her side today.

    Summary

    One week after the end of the war, and Ginny is the only child still in the house. Molly thought, automatically, that the whole brood would fly home to her. In the summer, when her children were still children, she would stand at the twilight doorway with a sonorous to her throat and watch them race across the meadows towards her, the kitchen windows their lighthouse across a sea of dark. Tall, rangy Bill herding Fred and George, Ron and Ginny chasing each other in squabbling circles, Percy with a mouth already full of complaints and accusations, Charlie loping slowly, always last. But Bill is with his own family now. Charlie is in Romania. Percy writes her fearful owls and avoids his father’s gaze. George is apparently drunk in the flats of various friends. Ron bounces between George and Harry, trying to watch over them, flooing back home to grab soup and hangover potion. So only Ginny - her much-loved girl, her longed-for daughter, her baby - is in the house, and that fact should not fill Molly with dread.

    Summary

    Harry wanted to recoil into the long reeds, enveloping himself in his own grief, far away from the prying eyes of others.

    But, he stopped himself. He knew her eyes. Warm, candescent eyes - ones which he had sought numerous times over the past year - for comfort, for a laugh, for some sort of solidarity. And they hadn't failed him yet.

     

    (Or: the story of how Harry Potter and Ginny Weasley became friends.)

     

    CanonCompliant, set in and around OotP, Missing Scenes, Harry/Ginny.
