"What did you think of the wedding?" Ron asked Harry as they were sitting at the table after the ceremony. Harry looked over at Ginny who was laughing and dancing with Fred and George.

"It was great" he said as he continued to stare at Ginny. "I want to marry her Ron, so badly... After today, I've never felt so confident with marrying her" he says, when he turns around he sees Hermione is now sitting next to Ron. Hermione has a smile on her face and surprisingly so does Ron.

"Then go ask her" Hermione says. Harry shakes his head.

"No, not at your wedding... I also need a ring" Harry says. Ron digs into his pocket and pulls out a small box and throws it towards him.

"When we were in Diagon Alley one time, I saw you staring at this one engagement ring, that's why I asked you when you would propose... I bought this ring when you said you weren't planning to because I knew you'd change your mind." Ron muttered. Harry stared at the ring in the box.

"How much?" Harry asked.

"900 Galleons" (900 galleons is like 5,000 dollars) Ron said softly with a shrug. Hermione's eyes widened. Ron looked at her. "Don't worry, your ring cost more than that"

"Where are you getting that kind of money?" Hermione asks.

"Weasley's wizard..." He begins to say but Hermione cuts him off.

"Okay then"

"I'll give you the money for the ring tomorrow Ron, thanks" Harry said. He put the ring in his coat pocket when he saw Ginny making her way over.

"Come on babe, dance with me" Ginny said holding out her hands. Harry holds onto them and stands up.

"Just so you know, I'm a horrible dancer" Harry mutters. Ginny smiles and drags him onto the dance floor.

"I don't care" she says putting her arms around his neck as a slow song comes on.  She puts her head on his shoulder as they away back and forth. Harry rest his hands on Ginny's waist and he whispers in her ear.

"What did you think of the ceremony?" He asks softly and lovingly.

"It was perfect" she mumbles.

"You're perfect" Harry's says. Ginny takes her head away from his shoulder and smiles at him.

"You're a flirt" Ginny says with a small laugh. "I love you"

"I love you too" Harry says. He takes her arms away from his neck and spins her around and pulls her back in and kisses her. Harry pulls away. "Would you ever Marry Me? I'm a loser honestly" Harry says. Ginny laughs.

"No you're not. You're the only person I've ever thought about marrying, honestly" she said with a small laugh, she puts her arms back around his neck. "But I wouldn't want a wedding like this"

"No?"

"No. It was too traditional for my taste, I want something completely different. Maybe a quidditch theme" Ginny said. Harry chuckles.

"Get married in the air?"

"Yes!" Ginny laughs. "That would be perfect for me... Just don't fall off your broom potter..."

A month later, Harry still hadn't proposed, he had planned to on a perfect night out but they would get so caught in the moment and they would end up sleeping with each other before Harry even has the chance to ask. That's his excuse for it anyway. He has just been nervous. But tonight he was defiantly going to ask her.

"Let's go out tonight" he says to her. Ginny nods but then shakes her head.

"No, I need to tell you something first before we make any plans to go out" Ginny said nervously. Harry nodded and held her hand.

"What is it?" He asked. Ginny sighed and she sat down, Harry sat down next to her. "What?" He asked again more worried.

"I'm pregnant" Ginny muttered. Harry just stared at her. "Harry..."

"Oh gosh" Harry muttered.

"Harry"

"No, I'm happy and everything, it's just I didn't want you to think..." He then pulls out the ring from his pocket.
"That when I ask you to marry me that it is because of the baby" he says. Ginny's eyes widen. Harry stands up and gets on one knee.

"Ginny Weasley, I know this isn't the perfect way to ask but will you please marry me?"
