Before 19 Years Later

The Begining of it All

Ginny P.O.V
Harry and I had just got back from a long shopping trip. We realized we needed things for James. We had to get special permission from McGonagoll to do it and of course, she agreed. We went straight to Gringotts to collect some money then ventured all around diagonal ally. It was a very successful shopping trip and we ended up getting everything we needed for our son after he's born. Harry was currently setting up the nursery. We would still be at school when I had him so we decided to magically expand our quarters to add an extra room. I got to decorate it but Harry wouldn't let me actually build anything. I didn't object as I got tired and easily worn out. I soon fell asleep on the couch, my thoughts lulling me to sleep.

When I woke up again I was in my bed. I heard frantic knocking and realized that's what woke me up. I got up to answer the door, admittedly with some difficulty. Just as I was reaching the door after the long trip down the stairs a hand stopped me. I jumped back only to realize it was Harry.
"Gin, what are you doing? It's 3:30 in the morning you don't know who that could be." As he said this protectiveness seeped into his voice. I pulled my hand away and stepped aside gesturing to the door indicating to him that if I couldn't open it he had to. He pulled me slightly behind him and drew his wand. He opened the door and pulled me more behind him immediately, blocking my sight so I couldn't see who it was.
"Don't be so daft Potter I'm not going to hurt her." A voice that belonged to Draco Malfoy invaded my thoughts.
"Well you don't exactly have the best track record so I have a reason to be suspicious. It's also bloody 3:30 in the morning, not a typical time for visits, Malfoy." Harry's voice was guarded as was his stance and he hadn't lowered his wand.
"Yes, well I need to tell you something about Voldemort." The name had barely left his mouth and Harry grabbed him and yanked him into our chamber slamming the door shut behind him.
"WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY?" Harry roared. I was in shock too but not enough to scream. We didn't have all the information to react like this yet. Malfoy replied calmly with,
"Not about him specifically but his followers. And I'd appreciate it if you would lets finish speaking before you go all bloody ballistic and attack me!" His voice rose toward the end. Harry lowered his wand but didn't put it away, that was Malfoys signal to continue.
"I got a message a little before I came here informing me that some of the death eaters are trying to continue the dark lords reign and try to kill you. Well hurt you in every way possible. The asked me to join them, I accepted but only as a spy. I'm totally on the light side this time. I have Astoria now and I'm not risking her safety or my sons." He finished quickly as Harry had started to raise his wand again. Harry began slowly.
"What are they going to do to try and hurt me?"
Malfoy began again this time choosing his words carefully. "They're going to try and break you. They're going to try to take everything you hold dear. Starting with your son."
My hand immediately went to my stomach.
"No! No they can't take him Harry. We can't let them take James!" I cried finding my voice, tears coming to my eyes. I started to panic. They couldn't take my baby from me. Harry took me face in his hands forcing me to look at him.
"Listen to me love, remember the day we found out you were pregnant?-" I did that was one of the greatest days of my life.
"- remember the promise I made to James that I will always protect him with everything in me?"
I nodded.
"Well that's what I'm gonna do. I will not let anything happen to him, or you. I don't know what I would do without you." He hugged me tightly. When we pulled away I noticed Malfoy was looking down at his hands clearly embarrassed. It would had been funny on any other occasion. It was then he spoke up.
"That's what they want. First they were going to take your son. Then they know you'll go to rescue him. Their goal then is to kill Ginny while you are there and anyone else that happens to be with you. They think of that can do that then you'll feel so guilty that you'll drive yourself so mad that you'll kill yourself." He concluded this with a grim expression. He got up to leave and just as the door was about to close behind him Harry called his name. He stepped back it, his expression neutral.
"Yes?" Harry held out his hand and Malfoy took it,
"Truce Malfoy?"
"Truce" he agreed.
"Thank you for telling us. And for choosing the right side." I said extremely grateful. He nodded at me and left us to our thoughts.
