Ginny Weasley was looking over the latest issue of Witch Weekly as she nursed a hot chocolate in a quiet coffee house in Diagon Alley.

She looked at the headline for a third time.

Harry Potter a Dream Come True

Ginny shook her head as she continued to read the article.

Harry Potter, currently famous for being the Chudley Cannon's star seeker, doesn't seem to have a problem meeting beautiful women. In fact, this author knows for a fact he has a different witch on his arm every night.

The young man who used to shy away from the media, seems to have come to terms with the fact of being famous. Thankfully, he now smiles for the camera.

This author is pleased to announce to her readers that Harry Potter is returning to England. That's right ladies. Now is your chance to get to know our home hero. Harry Potter hasn't been back in England, except for quiddich games, since his defeat of Voldemort.

This author knows each and everyone of you are just as excited about this as she is.

Merlin! Harry Potter is coming HOME!

Madam Macalister

September 29, 1999

Ginny could hardly believe it. Harry was coming home. She had not seen him in over three years. Not since the end of the War.

After defeating Voldemort, Harry was hounded by the ministry to be their poster boy. They needed to do damage control because the wizarding world was demanding answers. They also wanted Harry to join the Aurors. Harry just wanted to get away. He was tired of all of the responsibility and he wanted to live his life. So, he left England, joined the Chudley Cannons as seeker, and lived his life.

Now, he was coming back. Ginny couldn't help but wonder why.

She knew that Ron and his wife Hermione saw Harry from time to time. But she never asked them about him, matter of fact, she never mentioned Harry to anyone.

Ginny threw the magazine into the trash bin along with her empty cup as she made her way out the door.

As she turned the corner a man came barreling out of no where and ran right into her, knocking her to the ground.

"Damn, I'm terribly sorry. Are you hurt? Here, let me help you up." Spoke a voice in front of Ginny.

Ginny was picking up her notebooks as she said without looking up,
"No, that's not necessary, I can manage."

Ginny noticed the man wasn't responding, so she glanced up as she rose from the ground. She almost hit the ground again as she realized who's glorious emerald green eyes she was looking into.

Harry Potter was indeed back in town, and he was standing right in front of her.

"Ginny, is that you. Merlin, here let me help you. I'm so sorry I knocked you down. There was some people I was trying to get away from and I just wasn't paying attention."

Harry spoke so fast, Ginny was having a hard time keeping up with him.

She laughed at Harry's nervousness. "Harry, it's fine. I'm ok, see." As she said this she twirled around for Harry to noticed that she was not hurt. But, Harry seemed to have noticed quite a bit more.

As Harry watched Ginny, he was astonished that this was the same girl he knew three years ago. No, that's the difference Harry thought. She was a girl then, now she was a women. And Merlin help him, she's all women.

Harry was still staring at Ginny when she faced him once more.

"Harry, are you alright?"

" Wha What, oh yes I'm quite alright."

"Well, it was great seeing you again Harry, I know you must have somewhere to be so I'll let you be on your way. You take care, ok."

Harry was trying frantically to think of something to say. All he could come up with was. "Ginny, I was hoping to see Ron. Do you know where I could find him?"

Ginny smiled as she thought, just like school, Harry only wants the company of Ron and Hermione.

"He works with the Homeland Strategics department at the Ministry. But you already knew that, so you must have already tried him there. Just go over to the Leaky Cauldron and floo to his house. Be sure to say Weasley Residence clearly, because the twins place is Weasley Pestidence and you could end up there." Ginny laughed as she thought about how her brothers only did that to annoy Ron and Hermione.

"Ok, thanks for the help. I hope to see you soon Ginny. It's been a long time and I'm ready to get to know everyone again. I've really missed my old life and everyone in it."

Ginny watched as Harry ran his fingers thru his black, messy hair. She could still see the outline of his scar on his forehead. Although, you really had to know it was there to see it.

Ginny smiled as she turned and walked away. She was very aware that Harry's gaze was still fixed on her, but she refused to acknowledge it. She had to be strong, she wasn't a little girl anymore.
