RP: Surprise!
Characters: Ginny, Harry
Time/Date: Late afternoon, Saturday October 8
Location: Godric's Hollow, Potter home
Warnings/Rating: None. Or married!smut. Who knows?
Summary: Ginny makes a surprise trip home
Status: Complete

Ginny realized that she didn't have patrols that weekend, and Ariana had kindly offered to supervise weekend practices. She imagined the practices would be short, since everyone was likely interested in meeting and getting to know their visitors.

But what that meant was ... Ginny had the weekend off, if she so desired. And she really sort of did desire.

After taking care of a few things and making sure Ari was set to watch practices, Ginny slipped into her tiny office and stepped into the empty fireplace to Floo herself home.

Stepping out into the den, she tilted her head curiously to listen. She hoped to hear either Harry or Jamie, but for all she knew, they'd gone out to a late lunch. If that was the case though, she'd simply be home to surprise them when they did show up.

There was at least a little to chat about, but it would be nice to spend the weekend with her family. Or at least her husband if Jamie was off again.

"She's going to have to find a brave one to bring him to any sort of family gathering," which did make him wonder how their holidays would be this year, what with so many new arrivals. Well, it's not as if they'd ever had a shortage of folks around; maybe a handful of new people wouldn't make a difference. "The Triwizard Tournament is one thing, but ... I'm not sure it tops a Potter Weasley family gathering."

He slid one hand into his wife's hair, toying with it gently as she undid his buttons. "I hope so too," he agreed. He wished they knew more about what had caused the dead to come back, but nothing had turned up and he was beginning to doubt they'd ever figure it out.

That was a tired hope though and he blew out a sigh before tilting his head to kiss Ginny's forehead.

"I don't think she'll have a problem with that," Ginny said thoughtfully. Though that made her wonder if the visitors could leave the grounds or not. She didn't see why not, as long as their headmasters agreed.

"I bet she won't warn him though," Ginny continued. Because that seemed like exactly the sort of thing that Lily would 'accidentally' forget to mention. "Do you think ... your parents and Sirius and Remus would want to come?" Though she wondered if it wouldn't be awkward to have the first Lily and James in the same room.

Once she finished with the buttons, she gently ran her nails along Harry's middle, before caressing his chest softly. "I think either way, whoever shows up ..."

Ginny trailed off as her thoughts flit toward Fred. What she wouldn't give to be wandering down the hall some day and see him. "It'll be an adventure," she finished quietly.

"Probably? I don't know, really. Unless they wanted to stay at school over the holidays, which I suppose they might," he was aware of the possible awkwardness, but they were all family, even if a few of them didn't remember.

"Definitely an adventure, though," he agreed, rubbing her back softly. He did have to wonder if people were still steadily coming back and it was just folks they didn't know or weren't getting in touch with the Ministry. While it was convenient that so many had died at Hogwarts who they needed to be on the lookout for, he wished this was happening ... in the summer. Or not at all, if he was making impossible wishes.

"Maybe Lily will spend the holidays with Snape? I can't imagine him wanting to come to a gathering," he almost snorted at the thought.

"She's living with him," Ginny pointed out. "But I imagine she'll at least want to come visit for the holidays. Meet the rest of the family."

She supposed James and the others might want to remain at school. Come to that, so might Lily, with all the excitement being there. After all, she could see her family any time.
Ginny closed her eyes and exhaled a soft sigh. "Well, we'll ask around when it's closer to the holidays. Maybe Teddy will have Remus over," she reflected. Awkward as that was likely to be, she did hope they at least met, soon.

Fingertips played lightly over Harry's chest, her thumb brushing against his nipples. She was kind of sleepy and really thought she might not mind just lounging aroind until dinner ...
