Rating: G
Genre: fluff, humor, dialogue-only
Notes/Warnings: Sorry this is a little late; real life bit me pretty hard in the butt. This is totally unbeta'ed, so if you see an error or mistake, I'd love to hear about it so it can be corrected. ;)
"Remember the first time we met?"
"Of course I do. It was in London, on September the first, and I was on my way to Hogwarts for the first time."
"Ron's always thought that the first time we met was at the Burrow when I came downstairs in my pyjamas and you were sitting at the kitchen table eating breakfast."
"Really?"
"Yeah. I guess he never realized that we both considered that our first meeting, even though we were never introduced. I just ogled you and chased after the train."
"I remember thinking that it was strange that you wanted another look at me after you found out who I was. I still hadn't figured out how famous I was."
"It's been ten years to the day, you know."
"Yes, I had realized that."
"And here we are, once again, on Platform 9 3/4. Neither of us is headed to school, we have no one to drop off. In fact, the train left hours ago. Why are we here?"
"I told you, it's a surprise."
"And yet you told Hermione and Ron?"
"They told you?"
"Hermione told me that you had something planned, but wouldn't tell me what. I even tried bribing her but she wouldn't give."
"You tried bribing a pregnant woman? Have you no shame?"
"No."
"What am I going to do with you?"
"Make an honest woman of me?"
"Is that a yes, then?"
"I didn't hear a question, Harry."
"I figured I didn't have to actually ask since you seemed to already know my plans."
"I'd still appreciate it if you actually asked me."
"Ginevra--"
"Ginny."
"Ginny, will you do me the honor of consenting to be my wife?"
"Who helped you rehearse that? Percy?"
"No, Percy did not help me. Would you please answer my question now?"
"Yes, Harry, I will marry you."
"So when should I expecting the death threats to start coming from your brothers?"
