Oh, poor Ginny! Beautiful story - a more than credible version of events, and a good use of the journey into the underworld. Thank you for sharing this!

This was so sad! It made me sniffle. I did like Ginny's unwillingness to accept Harry's idea of their doom, though. I hope it works out for them. Poor Bill!

I enjoyed reading the dream scenes; they were very vivid. Thanks for participating!

interesting and a bit chilling.

i like how you ended it, though - And in that moment, he realizes that nothing, neither his dreams nor the future, is as real as the press of her cheek against his, and her arms wound around his neck.

Great job -- powerful and very vivid. And Harry withholding information until it drives a wedge between him and Ginny is chillingly realistic.
