Hope Has Returned Chapter 44

(Ginny's POV)

+++time skip 3 weeks+++

Today is August 31st. I leave to go to Hogwarts tomorrow for my 7th year. I've had to do a lot without Harry these past 3 weeks.

+flashback+

"HARRY!" Everyone yelled hoping he would hear us. Once he left I turned on Ron.

"THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT SO YOU SUCK SO MUCH!" I yelled at him.

"what have I done" Hermione said crying slightly.

"Out of all the mean things I could've said I said grenade!" she added. Just then my mom and dad came running in.

"Where did you guys go you never showed up for dinner?" mom asked.

"Well-" i've been launched into full detail about how Harry had ran.

"-and it's all Ron's fault!" I finished.

"This is horrible" mom said.

"Does anyone know where Harry went" dad asked.

"No" I responded sadly.

+end flashback+

This is the next week went by so long it. It took for ever for to go by. My birthday came and went without Harry.

+flashback+

I'm sitting down at the kitchen table with all my parents passing out the peasants toward me.

"Here this one is from some me your father" mom said. It was a watch like all of my brothers had gotten for their 17th birthday.

"Thanks" I mumbled. Just then an owl started pecking in the window. My mom let it in. It flew right to me the package was from Harry. It said 'love you always -HP'. I opened the gift to see a Firebolt! It was awesome.

+end flashback+

"GINNY BREAKFAST!" My mom yelled to break me out of my thoughts. I walked downstairs to see the Profit with Harry as the cover. It read 'Harry Potter has been spotted! Harry was spotted early this morning in a muggle supermarket. Sources are calling him reckless-' I stopped reading to look at Harry's picture shunning the camera with his hand. He is wearing a white shirt with a black leather jacket over it. His pants are tight skinny dark wash jeans with rips in them. His hair is longer too. It looks like it was in his fourth year. It looks amazing! I continued reading. The next part read '-he has changed his appearance and was only noticed because he stood out and was arguing with a local muggle about sale prices. HP said that he ran away because of harsh things said by his friends that are too mean to forgive. Read the full story on pages 4-5'. The headline was perfect. It was 'RECKLESS' in large lettering.

"Reckless! They've got that right! Harry doesn't look the same at all! He looks like one of those jocks that make fun of people because they read to much!" Ron said shocked.

"Look!" I said pointing to the background of the photo. You could see girls chasing him holding out pieces of paper with their numbers.

"And he even has girls swooning over him!" Ron added after he saw it. I turned around to see everyone there reading the short article.

"His hair is like mine!" Bill said smiling.

"That isn't a good thing Bill" mom said looking at him.

"He looks hot like that!" I said smiling.

"Crap did I saw that out loud!" I added. Everyone around me laughed.

"to harsh to forgive" Hermione muttered. Then a stag appeared in front of us.

"What you have read this morning is all true for once. I might be coming home. Potter out!" The stag said and then disappeared.

"Potter out? Really?" Ron said shaking his head. Then there was a loud knock on the front door. Mom opened it to see Harry leaning up against the frame casually.

"Hey" he said flipping his hair out of his eyes. I ran up and kissed him but he pulled back quickly. He started coughing into a napkin and then had to woo his face because he coughed up blood.

"Hasn't stopped yet" he said and then started coughing again. He then grabbed a Dixi cup and filled it with water. He put a pill in his mouth and then swallowed it with the water.

"What's that?" I asked pointing to his pills.

"These are supposed to help with my coughing but they aren't working well because they are muggle made for common coughs." He said eyeing them.

"Oh and I pulled away because you aren't a vampire." He added.

"I'll be one today!" I said jumping into his muscular arms and the kissing him.

"Oh I forgive you all" he said with a smile.

"Oh that reminds me!" he said putting me down. He grabbed out of his pockets a bunch of papers with girls numbers.

"Any of these are up for grabs. Lots of young and old witches and muggles shoved these into my hand." He said sorting them by age.

"These are the 16-17 year olds" he said pointing to the first pile.

"These are the 18-22 year olds" he said pointing to the second pile.

"These are the 22-35 year olds" he said pointing to the third pile.

"And this girl is like 50 years old!" he said pointing to the last one. George, Charlie, and Percy grabbed some out of their age group.

"Wow Harry you must of turned on a lot of girls!" Ron said looking at all the numbers.

"I have that effect on people" Harry said running a hand through his hair.

"Yes you do" I said and kissed him.

"Now you taste like a cough pill" I said getting a drink of water.

"Haha" he said back.

"Well I'm going to head-" but then Hermione came running out if nowhere and kissed Harry on the cheek.

"Thank you for forgiving me!" she said and hugged him. Harry hugged her back. She got up and walked next to a shocked Ron.

"What you said he turns a lot of girls on" she said poking him in the ribs.

"I'm making dinner tonight at my house so everyone come around 6pm." Harry called out to the house walking toward the fire place.

"I'm coming" I yelled and ran towards him.

"POTTER HOUSE!" we yelled and then we started cooking a big meal. We made pot roast. After dinner everyone went home. Life is perfect but I have to leave tomorrow to go back to Hogwarts. Let's hope it's nice there.
