Everything's gonna be alright

When I'm yours and you are mine

Bombastic Love

Ginny was trying not to cry. Eliza Doolittle wasn't supposed to cry as she sang Just You Wait.

It was only hours since she broke up with Hermione and she couldn't bear it. Was it really that important to have a non secret relationship? She didn't think so. Not worth Hermione at any rate.

Ginny had just resolved to go find Hermione after this performance when a spotlight focused on the main row between the seats. Ginny gasped to see Hermione standing there. She was soaking wet and Ginny belatedly remembered it was raining out.

"Come what may," Hermione called out.

GInny's hands fluttered to her chest then her face. She started to get up.

"Ginny Weasley!" Hermione called again and Ginny froze.

"I love you, Ginny. And I always will."

Ginny stared at her for a moment. She saw the question in Hermione's eyes, asking her if this was enough to fix the bridges she'd crossed.

Ginny leapt from the stage and wrapped her arms around Hermione's neck. Hermione took it instride, spinning with her before bringing her down for a kiss. The audience burst into applause.

Ginny snuggled against Hermione as they sat before their roaring fire. Hemrione was wrapped in blankets, though she assured GInny she was fine. Shortly after getting home, Hermione had called up her parents and told them everything. They took it well or so Hermione said.

Ginny had her public declaration of love. She was happy.

They sat in comfortable silence watching the flames crack.

"When did you decide?" Ginny asked.

"To tell you? I was having a conversation with my mom about love and I guess I just figured out we were alot stronger than that."

Ginny smiled. "I love that."

"Me too. So have you really told your parents?"

Ginny blushed, "Yeah."

"How did that go?"

"Better, I think. I was trying to tell them but Mum had a fit and seemed to think I was having an affair with Draco Malfoy or Blaise Zabini. So I blurted out that I was seeing you. My God, you've never seen a more relieved looking woman."

"Your mom was relieved you were gay?"

"She was relieved because she didn't have to worry about Death Eater Babies or something equally bad. Plus she never has to worry about me getting knocked up before I'm married."

Hermione laughed and they lapsed into silence again.

"So how did you get the light to follow you like that today?"

"The spotlight? Just a simple spell." Hermione replied.

What really happened...

Zac Carrier, the head lights geek at the theatre, laughed as Hermione tried to bewitch the spots to follow her. Didn't the girl know that the lights were warded?

"Follow that girl or I swear your acne will be but a pleasant memory in the hell of agony I shall put you through," Trinity whispered into his ear. Zac swallowed and complied.

Trinity straightened up, blowing a kiss to Colin down on stage. Ah yes. This worked out nicely.
