A/N: Hey, guys! Break out the tissues. We're almost done!

Last time:

I put a spell on the boat so it would take us around the lake. She just gazed around, taking everything in silently. I marvelled at her beauty.

She scooted closer to me. When I shot her a questioning glance, she shrugged. "I'm cold."

"Here," I said, leaning foward and picking up the blanket, spreading across both of us.

"It's so beautiful. So untouched by humans," she said.

I nodded and looked back at her. She was...so close...

I leaned foward. Longing took over me and pushed me to gently press my lips against hers. The longing was met, teasing and taunting me.

But even moreso because...

She kissed me back.

Now:

"You did WHAT?" Ron's voice boomed around the common room. It was a very good thing that it was still Christmas break, and it was only us here. Hermione and Ginny stood gaping at the other side of the common room.

"How DARE YOU TOUCH MY SISTER!" He turned to look at the two female figures staring at him. "And how dare YOU LET HIM TOUCH YOU! I THOUGHT YOU DIDN'T LIKE HIM?"

She flushed, but her face was set and angry. "I really did like him, Ron! I just wouldn't date him! But now I am, and there's nothing you can do!"

He stepped backword and just looked at her. His mouth opend and closed as if he couldn't find anything to say. Then, "I-I guess if it has to be anyone, at least it's Harry." Ginny squealed and ran over to hug him. "But that doesn't mean I like it," he grumbled.

Hermione walked over, laughing. "Oh, you'll grow to like it, I know." She kissed him on the cheek, and he blushed.

I stood up and he shook my hand. "You'd better take care of her, mate. If I hear you're not treating her well..." he made a gesture with his hand.

"Don't worry," I assured him. "I'll take good care of her."

"Come on, Ron," Hermione said, tugging on his arm. "Let's go get something to eat."

He gave me a last warning glance and followed her out of the common room and towards the Great Hall. I turned to Ginny.

"We're finally alone," I said suggestively. She laughed and punched me on the arm.

"You wish."

I pulled her into my arms. "I'm glad you're finally letting me do this. What changed your mind?"

She shrugged. "Seeing that beautiful place...and that you found it...and that you showed it to me..." she shrugged again. "Something just clicked."

I smiled. "I'm glad it did." I leaned foward and kissed her.

"You've got to be kidding me. Is it still there?"

A little girl with long, curly jet black hair bounced around on her bed in anticipation, while a little boy with messy red hair sat patiently on the bed beside it. A very pregnant Ginny reached out to calm the little girl.

"I don't know. We never went to see. And I'm not kidding."

"When I find someone I like, I'm going to tell them, and then we'll get married, and have lots of kids--"

"Whoa," Ginny said, laughing. "At least go to sleep first." She tucked the little girl in and kissed her forehead. She went over and tucked the little boy in and kissed his cheek. Right when she was almost at the door, though, he called her back.

"But Mommy," he said.

"Yes, Cody?"

"What happened next?"

She smiled. "Now that's a story for another time. Go to sleep. Goodnight."

"'Night, Mommy. Night Daddy," the kids yawned in unision. She turned the light out and softly closed the door.

"Are you sure it's a good idea to tell them our story?" Harry said when she'd come down. But he was smiling.

She shrugged. "I couldn't help it. Lizzie asked for a romantic story, and I couldn't help but think of ours."

She walked over to the chair he was sitting in and touched his arms. "I'm going to bed. Are you coming?"

"Yes." He got up and put his arm around her waist. "Now, am I led to believe that you're going to tell them the rest of our story...another night?"

"Oh yes," she said. "Would you like to help?"

"I...suppose."

"Good. Because it wouldn't be the same without hearing your side of it, now would it?"

"That's why I'd like to help. So I make sure you tell it right."

They continued argueing all the way up the stairs and into their room. "Goodnight."

"Goodnight."

"Mommy, I can't wait. What happens next?"

"AUGGH! Cody! Honey, what's wrong?" Ginny shot up in bed and looked around. She finally spotted her son sitting on the edge of the bed.

"Now, Cody, you'll have to wait. We're tired," Harry said.

"Yes, honey, tomorrow night. You can wait until then, can't you?" Ginny asked him, pulling him into her lap, although that was hard with the size of her belly.

"I guess," he said gloomily.

"That's my boy." She smoothed his hair down but it just popped back into place. She shot a look at Harry, who looked back innocently.

"Can Lizzie and I sleep in here tonight?"

She and Harry looked at each other. "Alright, but just for tonight."

"Yay!" Cody's gleeful voice was joined with Lizzie's as they snuggled in between their mom and dad.

"Goodnight everybody," Harry said. A chorus of goodnights met his ears.

Within five minutes soft breathing told him that everyone was asleep. He sighed happily and settled back into the pillow. How surprised their kids had been when they'd found out how much trouble he'd gone to to get her to say yes. But they didn't even know the half of it...

THE END

a/n: Well I guess really it isn't the end because there is a sequel. So stay tuned for it! I'm thinking about calling it "The Trouble With Love." But I'm not totally sure if I am or not, but just so you know. If you'd like me to email you when I post the first chapter just say so in a review.

I love you guys, and I want to give one last thanks to all of my reviewers:
