Writing Prompts

Write about how you think Harry proposed to Ginny

Sorry I haven't updated! I've been out of the house a lot recently but I made this one longer. Chose my own prompt today. Hope you enjoy!

"Harry, it's time to go to dinner!" Ginny called up the stairs. Her famous boyfriend, who asked her to move in with him a month ago, had just gotten home from working at the Ministry of Magic and promised to come down after changing. It's been ten minutes and she was sure he didn't need that long to get ready.

"Coming!" He called back. She could hear the sound of objects falling in his haste, and tapped her foot on the floor repeatedly.

Seeing as Ginny had nothing to do, she checked her reflection in a mirror. Her fiery red hair came down to her mid-back, and was straight. She's only told Harry this before, but for the longest time she's wished for different colored hair to set her apart from her family. Harry had cleverly responded with saying that she would be missing a vital part of being a Weasley and she grudgingly agreed to not dye her hair.

"There you are! Why were you were taking-" Ginny broke off as Harry came around the corner in a nice black suit.

"Come with me. We aren't going to the Burrow tonight." Harry smiled.

"But I told my Mom we would go." Ginny frowned.

"Already took care of that."

"I'm not dressed properly...for wherever we're going." She looked down at her plain blue jeans and casual t-shirt.

"It's fine. I'll wait." Harry went to sit down on the couch and Ginny raced upstairs. A million thoughts were racing through her head. Where were they going? Is it something bad? Did she do something wrong? Or maybe he wanted to propose? But why would he? I'm not good enough to be his wife.

Ginny grabbed a nice dress from her closet and put it on. She ran over to the bathroom and realized she didn't exactly know how to apply her own eyeshadow and things of that sort because she's always gotten ready for a fancy occasions with people that did.

Eventually she gave a careless shrug and walked down the stairs. Her rich blue colored dress came down just above her knee, and she chose a gold colored handbag to match.

"You look beautiful." Harry complimented as she came down the stairs. Internally she felt relieved knowing the dinner wasn't for a bad thing.

"How polite." She looped her arm through the one he held out.

"Of course Madame." He dramatically bent and kissed her hand.

"Oh shove off. So where are we going?" Ginny asked.

"You'll see." Harry held her hand and apparated. Not a moment later, the pair appeared in front of Kings Cross Station.

"What are we doing here?"

"You'll see." Harry led her into the busy train station. Ginny felt a flood of emotions overwhelm her, as she remembered all of the times she's walked through a barrier to get to platform 9 and 3/4. With Fred... her deceased beloved brother who didn't make it through the final battle. They finally arrived upon the wall you had to run through.

"Why are we here?" Ginny asked.

"This is where we first met. I still remember making eye contact with you and it calmed me down before I ran through. I couldn't stop smiling for a while to myself." Harry laughed.

"Really? I turned so red after realizing you were Harry Potter." She shook her head at herself.

"Shall we continue on?" Harry offered his arm to her, and once again they vanished. In front of them, loomed the great castle of Hogwarts looking majestic in the sunset. He led them in and they traveled through the many halls until reaching a bathroom.

"Harry why are we at Moaning Myrtles bathroom?" The red head raised an eyebrow.

Harry however, didn't answer and opened the door to the girls bathroom that nobody ever used. He approached the sink and spoke in a weird strangled sound. All of a sudden the sinks began to move, and a hole appeared in the center of them.

"You don't want to go in do you?" Hinny frowned.

"Please." Harry made a charming face at Ginny which normally worked when he wanted something.

"Fine. I'll just try not to remember how I almost died here." Ginny rolled her eyes. They held hands, and jumped into the hole. The tube like structures twisted every which way until they reached the bottom. The two followed a long passageway further in. Harry had to speak in that strangled sound again to a door, but the sound was one most people called snake language.

The door opened slowly and lump was forming in her throat. She had almost died here. Harry squeezed her hand reassuringly and they walked in. The skeleton of the fearsome basalisk that once dwelled in the chamber lay on the floor deeper in.

"This Ginny, is where I first truly realized my feelings for you. Seeing you vulnerable like that and about to die hurt me. It made me fight harder for you." Harry said softly. Ginny furiously wiped away the tears forming in her eyes.

"You're too much." She managed to get out. Internally she hit herself wondering why she had to get all like this. She had a strong image to uphold.

"Now lastly. Please follow me." Harry led the way back out of the chamber, and closed the door behind them. They levitated themselves up the tubes until reaching the top. Harry closed the sinks making them appear the same as every other bathroom and they walked out.

He led her up a few staircases and stopped in front of the room of requirement. "I assume you can guess why we're here?"

"This is where we had our first kiss." Ginny smiled to herself.

"Yes. Finally after all that time we did it here." Harry went silent and paced back and forth three times, causing a door to appear. He opened it and led her in. In the middle of a spacious room, laid a fancy table set for two.

Harry pulled out her chair for her, which she took and sit down trying to contain a growing smile on her face. He went to sit on the other side, and food appeared. Ginny piled some onto her plate and started to eat.

Throughout the meal they made some light conversation but the food was too good to eat it slowly. Finally desert came, and at the end they were left with full and content stomachs. Harry stood up and walked over to her. He helped her to her feet.

"Front the first time I saw you, something about it was intriguing to me. You looked so beautiful and sweet, even wishing me good luck despite how you didn't know who I was. Since then you continued to grow on me especially at the end of second year. But many things got in the way, I dated Cho honestly to make you a jealous, but then you dated Dean and everything got complicated. But once we shared a kiss in this space, I knew you were the one for me. Once the fight for Hogwarts began I couldn't get you off my mind. I knew that whatever I did, it had to ensure that you would be safe. Finally that ended and we got to spend more us time together. I love you so much and want to spend the rest of my life with you." Harry bent down on one knee and took out a box. He opened it to reveal a ring. "Will you, Ginevra Molly Weasley, marry me?"

"Yes." Ginny nodded. She didn't stop the tears of joy from flowing and let Harry put the ring on her finger. "You'll be loyal to me right?" She voiced one of her fears as he was very famous.

"Always."
