Hinny Valentine

Sorry it’s been a while, i’ve been struggling to write but there are some updates coming soon. I hope you enjoy this short story.

It is an earlier morning at the ministry head auror Potter sits in his office looking over reports. There was a knock on his door, “sir, i uhm have something for you’ the voice didn't belong to lily moon secretary who usually brought in packages.

“Come in,” he said without looking up from his papers.

The door opened with the auror entering holding some strings, harry looked up from the reports with raised eyebrows as the man tried pulling in the ends of the strings. The man finally did, “I'm really sorry sir but the delivery showed up at the office and… I was uhm asked to bring them to you.”

Harry looked at him confused then turned towards the strings that were now held in the air. “Oh for the love of Merlin’s Beard.”

The man gave a soft laugh and then exited the room. Harry then got up from his desk and walked over to the strings. He then saw that they had hearts attached to them, what is this? “Lily, could you come here?”

The door opened and Lily stuck her head in, “yes anything i can help you with?” She asked with a little grin she was trying to hide.

Harry gave her a stern look, “what is this?” He asked, pointing at the strings with hearts attached.

Lily entered the room, “It's valentine’s day.” She said in a singsong voice. Harry’s eyes widened, “you forgot?” He shook his head in disbelief. “How do you forget valentine's day?” Lily asked, laughing.

Harry shook his head, “I was really busy this week.” He said, crossing his arms over his chest.

Lily nodded, “yeah you have been, i just can't believe you forgot.” She laughed again.

“I'm glad you find this amusing.” Harry said sarcastically, “Do you know the address where I can get flowers?” Harry asked.

Lily pulled out a notebook and wrote the address down on a piece of parchment, “this is the shop that most of the department heads go to get flowers from.” She then handed him the parchment,

“And get these things out of my office please.” Harry groaned.

Lily laughed again and picked up the strings, she then walked out of the office closing the door behind her. Harry sighed he was really going to pay for this one.

Another knock on the door quickly followed, “what?” He said a little annoyed.

“Uhm sir we have an issue… revolving around antidotes for love potions.” A female voice said.

“Come in.” Harry said, running his hands over his face.

Kate Mcwilliams entered, “nice balloons sir.” She said with a smirk.

Harry sighed, “yeah thanks… What's this about antidotes?” He asked.

“Well sir we just took in the fourteenth suspect who used a love potion on another .”She said.

“Fourteenth!” Harry said shocked, “it is just past nine in the morning.”

“Yes sir and it's only going to get worse throughout the day.” She said, “So to make sure our auror’s and the people affected our safety, we should order another batch of antidotes.” She explained.

Harry shook his head, how did he forget it was valentines day. “Do whatever you need to get them.” He said.

“Yes sir, i also got the addresses of the shops that sell the love potions, at least most of them anyway” She added.

Harry groans, muttering something about idiots. “Is that all?” He asks.

“Yeah that’s all for now.” She replied. Goodluck with your wife sir.” She then turned and exited the room.

Harry sighed, rubbing his eyes, he really needed to get ginny something special. He stood up from his seat and headed out of his office and towards the lift to the atrium, he then Apparated from there to the address Lily gave him. He arrived in front of a flower shop. He enters the shop, “hello can i help you?” An older witch asks as he enters.

“Yeah, I need something for valentines day.” He replied.

She smiled, “for a wife?” She guessed. Harry nods.

“Oh honey you are in trouble aren’t you?” She said with a little giggle. Harry just crosses his arms and nods again.

“What’s your wife into?” She asked.

Harry thought for a moment, “ummm…. she isn't really the flower type but…”

“You forgot so now you need to do a little extra.” She finished for him, “come on.” She leads him to a section of the shop. “This is our special occasion section, i would say for valentine’s day get her this,” She pulls out a beautiful rose bouquet. “Flowers go a long way but lady potter strikes me as more of a chocolate girl.”

Harry nodded in agreement, “thank you,“ he says.

The witch nodded, “anything else?” She asked.

“No, that's all.” He replied.

“Very well, I will take it to the register for you.” She then proceeds to the front desk of the shop.

He watches as she bags everything, he pays and before he leaves the elderly woman says. “Get some chocolate and return home. I think lady potter would appreciate it more if the savior of the wizarding world arrives home early on valentines day then a bunch of flowers and chocolate.” She says.

Harry nods, “your right.” He exits the shop then proceeds to apparate to muggle London, in an alleyway he waits before walking into public hiding his wand. Arriving at a shop he finds many men waiting holding different boxes, almost in sync they all turn to him and nod. Harry finds a box that to his opinion would suite them just fine. Joining the men in row he pays and walks back to the alleyway and apparates home. He arrives at his house and enters walking to the living room where he finds ginny sitting reading a book. “Hey,” he says.

Ginny sets the book down, “hey babe” she replied. Standing up she made her way over to him. Wrapping her arms around his neck, “you’re home early?” She asked looking up at him.

“Yeah,” He said as he revealed his arms behind his back. One holding the bouquet of roses and the other a box. “Happy Valentine's Day my love.” He said pulling out the flowers first.

Ginny gasps, “Harry, wow, these are beautiful.” She then hugs him again. “Thank you.”

Harry nods, “I know you aren't really a flower kind of person but … I had to get you something.” He then hands her the box.

Ginny takes the box and opens it. Smiling from ear to ear, “I might be a Potter now, but the Weasley in me loves food.” She says jokingly.

Harry smiles, “you're always a weasley at heart.” He pulls her closer, “so am i in trouble?” He asks.

Ginny shakes her head, “not if you help me eat all of this.” She jokes.

Harry chuckles, “I love you.” He says kissing her on her lips.

Ginny kisses him back, deepening it, “I love you too.”

“I also took the rest of the day off so we can spend it together.” He then added.

Ginny smiled, “I'm so proud of you.” She says before kissing him again.

Harry then pulls away slightly, “What? What did I do?” He asks slightly confused.

Ginny laughed, “for you to take the day off, forgetting valentine's day was expected.” She explained.

Harry rubbed the back of his neck, “I forgot it was valentines because i'm a prat but also because we had issues at work.”

“Yeah I figured that.” She replied, “I love you harry.”

Harry smiled, pulling her back into his arms, “I love you Ginny.”

They then kiss again this time the kiss deepens and Ginny pulls back slightly, “let's go up to our room. I got you a present too.”

Harry’s eyes widened with excitement, “lead the way.” He said.

They walked up together, arriving at their room. Ginny then pushes him onto the bed and straddles him. “I got you this.” She said pulling out a box.

Harry opens it and pulls out a jumper, “you got me a harpies jumper?” He asks. He wasn't sure if he should be excited or not.

“Look at the back.” Ginny says. Harry then flips it around and finds it says Potter at the back. “Next season I'll be playing under your name.” She said as she kissed him.

Harry looked perplexed, “what about weasley, i like you playing under weasley.” He said.

“I know you did and I liked it too, but Harry, you're my husband and I want to play under your name.” Ginny explained. “It’s about time another Potter was in the quidditch world.”

Harry kissed her again, “I love you so much.” He said, “but I will still wear my weasley jersey to your games.” He added.

Ginny laughed, she loved how he supported her and loved her family. She then kissed him again deepening it, Harry laid down pulling her on top of him.
