“Luna! What brings you round these parts so early?” Ginny asked as she kneed the dough for the sweet rolls that she was making.

Luna waltzed into the main part of the kitchen where dinner was being made. Ginny shook her head at the sight. Luna's blonde hair was flowing freely down her back, different types of flowers sticking out from every direction within it. She wore black leggings with a floral dress.

Her striking blues eyes were vacant and yet her smile warmed the core of Ginny as it always did.

“I'm here to see Arthur. I promised him I would bring a muggle popcorn maker.”

Ginny shook her head. It didn't surprise her that her father asked another trinket.

What did surprise Ginny and the Weasley boys was how Luna and Arthur gravitated toward each other during the funeral and the clean ups.

Ginny never told her brothers this, but she was sure that the only reason that her father was handling her mum's death well was because Luna was there with him, helping him cope.

“I'm sure he'll be happy to get it. He's out in the shed, as always,” Ginny said, shaping the dough.

Luna's smile grew bigger.

“Oh goody! I can't wait to show him how the Humplefranks make the popcorn pop!”

Luna ran out of the kitchen, leaving Ginny alone once again.

Ginny put the bread into the oven and continued to cook the other side dishes, her mind reflecting over the last few months.

After Ginny was released from the St. Mungo's, she pretty much took the head in planning the funerals with Bill. It was sad as there were so many more funerals to plan other than her mum's and Ron's. They had to help Remus plan one for Tonks and another one for Grawp, Hagrid's little brother.

Ginny had been a bleeding mess the whole time. Not only had she mourning the loss of her family, but she had also been trying to cope with the fact that Snape didn't love her and never did. She gave her bleeding heart to that man and thought his tenderness toward her was him returning the feeling. Gods she felt like an idiot. The whole entire relationship had been him pitying her.

To make it worse, since the whole family had been in mourning during that time, it meant that she had to be strong for them.

The reason she had even gotten through the past three months was because Remus had been there to help her.

Ginny smiled as she fondly recalled all the support she had received from Remus when she didn't think she could go on.

And the unconditional love that his son Teddy Lupin gave her was simply balm to her soul.

She loved the little boy to pieces. He was always cheerful which she was sure he got from his mum. He also had Tonks' amazing power of changing his hair color which always made her happy. He even got into the habit of changing his hair color to her hair color when he saw her.

Ginny had no doubt in her mind that if it weren't for Remus and Teddy, she wouldn't be coping as well as she was at that point.

And then there was Harry. Even though Ginny told him that she didn't love him romantically any longer, he still seemed keen on trying to win her over. It was a little irritating, but Ginny knew that he would soon enough realize that her destiny was no longer tied with his.

Hermione was doing as well as one could do with losing their fiancee. She came to the Burrow a lot and they laughed and cried over the memories of both Molly and Ron. Ginny really enjoyed that time as aside from Remus, her brothers seemed to have this idea that they always had to be strong around her which meant that they didn't grieve with her.

And it wasn't that they didn't comfort her when she was sad. But sometimes it was nice to have someone to share pain with and simply having a good cry with her.

“Hello! Anyone here?”

“In the kitchen,” Ginny shouted.

Remus came into the kitchen, Teddy on his hip sucking on his thumbs.

Remus was wearing a very flattering outfit of black slacks with a casual purple button up shirt and a black robe. Teddy was dressed in kiddy robes covered with moving dragons.

Ginny dropped her spoon and embraced both of them.

“Its so good that both of you could make it today. And how is my handsome little man today?” Ginny asked, pinching little Teddy's cheeks.

“Not doing too bad. I managed to make myself look presentable with a destructive two year old running around.”

Ginny rolled her eyes but couldn't stop herself from laughing.

“I was talking to my little man,” she said.

Teddy cooed and held out his arms for her.

Ginny gladly took him, giving him kisses all over his chubby cheeks.

“Yes, well it didn't hurt to try and get a compliment from such a stunning lady.”

Ginny blushed, keeping her attention on Teddy.

She cleared her throat.

“Well then, might I say that you are incredibly handsome as well today?”

Remus chuckled.

“Yes, you may.”

Ginny turned away from Remus with Teddy completely, her face pretty much flaming.

It was quite true that the more time Ginny spent with Remus, the more handsome she found him. She had never really seen it when she was younger. After all, when he had been a Professor at Hogwarts, the girl students had practically swooned whenever he was ear. Ginny never saw him that way. Instead he was a cool professor who gave you chocolate when something bad happened.

Now... well now it was nearly impossible to ignore his attractiveness. With his sandy brown hair streaked with grey, his warm brown eyes and his kind heart, Ginny was surprised it took her so long to see it.

To make things even more complicated, he flirted with her all the time. He seemed to take great pleasure in watching her blush and he would do what he could to get her to admit that she found him attractive.

Ginny never thought in a million years that her relationship with Remus would shift to what it was. Even more mind boggling was the fact that she didn't mind the turn in the relationship. She had thought for sure that after Snape dumped her that she would have no interest in men anymore.

She realized how wrong she had been when she had first encountered a shirtless Remus one night when she decided to stay the night at his place. At the sight she had nearly melted into a puddle.

Since then, their relationship had been in a very odd romantic/friendship limbo. She was more then sure that it was starting to turn more romantic but Ginny didn't want to rush anything. She enjoyed Remus as a friend and would do everything she could to keep it that way.

Teddy grabbed at a spoon in the bowl.

“Hey now, no touching the food. The guests will not be happy if its destroyed,” Ginny scolded Teddy, taking his hand from the spoon.

“Here, I'll take him while you finish up,” Remus offered.

Ginny turned back to him, her face color finally back to normal.

Teddy began to cry as Ginny handed him back.

“Oh don't cry, Teddy. Be a big boy and go back to your father, yeah?”

Teddy continued to cry, but Ginny could only smile softly while Remus took him away.

“If you have a little time before dinner, can we have a private chat?” Remus asked over the sobbing child.

Ginny hated how her cheeks began to flame.

“Sure, Remus. We can talk.”

“Brilliant. I'll leave you to it then.”

Before he left, he gave Ginny a kiss on the cheek. Ginny's body practically caught on fire from the contact.

Ginny rubbed her cheek.

Bloody hell, I need to get laid.

Ginny continued to make dinner. She was not Molly Weasley. But with the skills being ingrained within her from when she was a little child, she knew that with practice, she could probably match her mother's skill.

Hermione was the next person to arrive at the Burrow. She kept Ginny company while she cooked. More people arrived, the Minister of Magic, Kinglsey Shacklebolt, Mad Eye Moody, Professor McGonagall, Bill and Fleur, Charlie, Fred and George and their dates.

By this time Luna and Arthur left the shed and everyone was talking with one another while at the same time, cooing over Teddy Lupin.

Ginny was putting the finishing touches on dinner after she kicked Hermione out to go socialize with everyone.

In the middle of this, Remus walked into the kitchen.

“Dinner smells good, Gin,” he said, leaning against the counter she was using.

Ginny had to fight the blush that wanted to stain her cheeks.

“Yes, well lets hope it tastes as good. Mum tried to teach me how to cook but I'm not nearly as good as she was.”

“I'm sure its perfect, Ginny.”

Ginny blushed but ignored it and cleared her throat.

“Thank you, Remus. So what was it that you wanted to talk with me about?”

Remus smiled at her and Ginny once again felt as if she was going to melt into the floor.

“I know its been a hard few months for all of us, Gin. I don't want to rush you, but my feelings for you have very much shifted.”

Ginny went to another part of the kitchen. Being close to him was making her muddled brained.

“Well, I hope they haven't shifted to hate,” Ginny lamely joked.

“Actually, quite the opposite.”

Ginny could feel him behind her. He took her oven mitts off and gently turned her toward him.

She stared up at him. He looked quite serious about whatever he had to say.

He pulled her into his body, his hand resting on her hip, his other cupping her cheek.

“I don't now how it happened, but I'm beginning to develop some romantic feelings for you. I tried to fight it for as long as I could because I know you are dealing with quite a bit emotionally now, but if there is anything this war has taught me it's that life is too short.”

Ginny could only stare at him. Honestly, his touch, his stare was doing things to her body that she hadn't felt since Snape had last touched her.

“Will you go out with me next Saturday? I already have a baby sitter for Teddy. I can understand if this is too soon—”

Ginny put her hand against his lips, smiling at him as she did so.

Remus was right. She could spend the rest of her life pining for a man who did not want her anymore, or she could be with one who she wanted and who wanted her in return.

“I would love to go out with you next Saturday, Remus.”

Remus grinned at her.

“I'm glad you accepted. Would it be okay if I kissed you right now?” he asked.

Ginny, being the feisty Gryffindor that she was, pulled his head down.

His lips were soft and yet firm as they molded with hers. He simply focused on kissing her gently, his tongue gently running against the seam of her lips. Ginny opened her mouth and was introduced to a whole new world of pleasure as his mouth devoured hers.

Remus' kiss was different from Snape's in the sense that it was patient, gentle, and almost loving in comparison to his fiery, possessive ones. It was different from Harry's because Ginny's entire body was on fire and all she wanted to do was clear the counter and have him take her in the kitchen as compared to forcing herself to kiss him.

Suddenly, Ginny heard someone clear their throat.

She quickly jumped away from Remus, her face for sure the color of a tomato.

Ginny looked into the doorway and nearly fainted when she saw Harry and none other than Snape standing in the entrance of the kitchen.

“Oh, Harry! You're late,” Ginny spat out, unable to take her eyes off of the unreadable ones of Snape.

Harry just gaped at them, not saying much of anything.

Ginny looked over to Remus who was glaring at Snape.

“I take it that you and Harry will need some privacy. I will talk with you later tonight so we can set up a time for our date,” he said.

Remus leaned down and gave Ginny one more fiery kiss on the lips before walking away, completely ignoring Snape in the process.

Snape looked away from Ginny and walked out of the kitchen.

Ginny sighed and went back to putting the finishing touches on dinner.

“So, I guess you weren't lying when you said that you didn't love me romantically any longer,” Harry said into the thick silence.

“I knew you would eventually understand. I'm just sorry it had to happen this way for you to realize it,” Ginny said honestly.

She turned to face Harry.

He didn't look angry, sad or disappointed. If anything he looked contemplative.

“I accept our relationship for whatever it is going to be. I just have one question.”

“What would that be?” Ginny asked, curious as to what Harry wanted to know.

“What happened between you and Snape during the war?”

Ginny's stomach pooled with dread. She did betray him and he deserved to know about it. She owed him at an explanation at least.

“It's a long story. I'll tell you another time, yeah? Dinner is about to start and I don't think it would be a good idea to start a conversation like that before then.”

“That's fair, but at least answer me this. Did you and Snape shag each other while we were together?”

Ginny closed her eyes and sighed.

“We did,” she answered simply.

Harry stared at her neutrally for a few moments before walking up to her and pulling her into a hug.

“I don't know why, but it doesn't make me angry. I think a part of me always knew something was going on between you two. I would like to hear the whole story one day.”

Ginny sagged in relief into his embrace.

“I'll tell you every detail ... okay maybe not every detail. But you deserve to know how it all happened.”

Harry kissed Ginny gently in the hair and pulled away.

“All I ask is that you be happy, Gin. That's all I really ever wanted for you. If that happiness is with Remus or even Snape then so be it.”

Ginny smiled.

“Thanks, Harry. That means a lot to me. Now, make yourself useful and help me carry some of the food into the dining room.”

B~*B~*B~*B

Ginny made her way to the bathroom after escaping the rowdy dinner crowd.

She smiled at the sound of laughter drifting from the kitchen. This is what they needed after such a traumatic number of losses in the war.

She was still very sad that she would never hear her mother's screeching again or see her brother practically inhaling his food, but she was taking everything one day at a time and trying to live life the best she could.

As Ginny made her way to the second level, she was suddenly pulled into an empty bedroom.

She knew by the smell and grip on her arm that it was Snape.

He pulled her into the dark bedroom.

When Ginny finally got a good look at his face, she wasn't surprised to see him pretty much fuming at her.

“So this is what you resort to? As some chew toy for the wolf?”

He squeezed her arm tighter.

“Let go of me you wanker,” Ginny said, struggling to get free of his hold.

“Do you know what he can do to you? Do you realize what he is capable of? If you stay with him, I have no doubt in my mind that he will kill you.”

Ginny kicked Snape in the shin.

Snape let out a curse and dropped her arm.

“Why do you care? Who I decide to see is not any of your business anymore, Severus Snape. In fact, you have no right to even speak to me anymore. What you did to me the day after the final battle was unforgivable. You knew I was in love with you. You knew I would have done everything within my power to be with you. But you were done with me, weren't you? You were probably right that the relationship we had together during the war wouldn't have held up in reality, but that didn't mean you couldn't try to make it a better relationship. You had no desire to be with baby Weasley any longer because after becoming a war hero, you could have anyone that you wanted. The use you had for me was no longer relevant.”

Now Ginny was getting completely worked up. All of the bottled up anger and angst she had about him throughout the summer finally came flowing out of her. Ginny poked him in the chest with her finger, her face completely wet with tears (though she didn't notice it).

“To make it all worse, you didn't even have the decency to wait until after my mum and brothers were buried before you broke it off with me. All you could think about was being free from me. And to think that during the entire war, even after you killed Dumbledore, I thought that you were a good man, just a man who was misunderstood. I thought somewhere between you screaming out my name in pleasure when we shagged and holding me in your bed that maybe you loved me. I can see so clearly now that I was wrong. I was a little fucking game to you.”

Ginny turned away from him, crossing her arms over her chest.

“Well, I'm done with your silly game, Snape. If that means that I am “chew toy” for the wolf, then so be it. At least the fucking wolf genuinely wants me. He isn't playing games with me and he is more than willing to work at whatever relationship we may have together. And how that pans out for me is none of your concern. I would appreciate it if you went on with your life and let me go on with mine.”

Snape said nothing during the rant.

Ginny was shaking with raw emotion and did her best to stop herself from sobbing in front of the bastard.

Snape left the room.

Ginny didn't care. She was done with Severus Snape once and for all.
