Green

Written for Hinny microfics hosted by the @ginnystrophyhusband server with the prompt Green

Green has always been Ginny's favorite color, before she knew what colors were and green was named that. Since she was little she always chose clothes that looked well with her hair, blue looked well, purple also looked well, pink looked bad, but the color she looked the best for her was green.

When she found out Harry Potter had green eyes, her attraction towards him skyrocketed. Her brother already talked flowers about him, and Harry also had the skill to join the Gryffindor quidditch team the first time he used a broom. But the green eyes, those pierced her soul.

Speaking of Ginny's biggest passion, aside from Harry himself, quidditch. Ginny has followed the league since she was a little girl, listening to the matches in the wireless. Now Ginny considered those narrations in the wireless mediocre, well something mediocre was better than what she listened there, the commentaries that didn't focus in the match at all. Since she listened to a football match in the radio she knew she needed to create a better wireless program in the future. She has been bullying Harry to convince him to be her cohost. Harry would be a good commentator as he learned most of the moves for play-by-play by watching Ginny's games for the Harpies. The Harpies, that's how Ginny's favorite color linked with her passion, the uniform of the Harpies, well the home uniform, is a beautiful green, unlike the away uniform that is an ugly yellow.

But not everything green has been something Ginny liked. Her worst enemies at school, the Slytherins, wore green colors, and no amount of green convinced her to join that house. Its was Andromeda the one that redeemed her opinion about the house of the snakes. This allowed her to be proud of Albie when he was sorted in that house, because he had Andi as his role model.

Green are the walls of Ginny's office at the Kiln, where she writes all the articles for the Daily Prophet and other quidditch publications like OneQuidditch and The Golden Snitch. On one of the walls there is a photo of her interviewing the Mexican coach and ex-Harpy teammate Ximena Huerta, and obviously the green in Ximena's uniform is something to behold in that photo.

It was the day after Lily Luna left for Hogwarts that Harry returned early from work. Ginny was trying to enchant a typewriter as the floo flared. Ginny ran towards Harry. "Did something happen?"

"Nothing really. I got something for you."

"What did you get?"

Harry showed her a box. "Open it."

Ginny carefully opened it and saw a letter with the seal of the British Wireless Authority. She read it, it was the permission for her to have her own Wireless Frequency signal. She looked at the box and saw Wireless equipment. "Harry!"

"I also bought some VIP tickets for the opening game of the Harpies."

"Harry! Do didn't need to do that. Remember, I have free tickets for every Harpies game! With better seats than the VIP ones and we can put some silencing charms so we can do the transmission without problem!"

"We can give the tickets to Teddy and Victoire then. I was thinking that now we have time to do this project after Lily started school."

"The kids will get some surprises next Sunday!"

"Let's go to Greengrass' ice cream shop to celebrate!"

"You are going for green forest right?"

"Of course!"

Gin-Gin is the best

Ginny never liked to be called Gin-Gin, her brothers used the nickname to always demote her as the child of the group, who could do nothing but watch them play whatever the shit was.

At school, Gin-Gin was a diminutive of ginger, which she detested, since Ginny hated ginger and being compared to that spice was terrible.

But then Teddy came, and he had a hard time calling her Ginny, which always ended up tangled up and ended up as '' Gimi '' or just '' Gi '', but she never really cared, she loved it the boy and would not crucify him for that.

On her nineteenth birthday, he had made a beautiful card for her, full of flowers, glitter, and somewhat confusing arts, but which he swore were hearts and broomsticks. And when he came to deliver the note, next to a box, which she suspected was the coat she had seen with Harry, Teddy made a point of saying it;

''For you, Gin-Gin'' 

At first it sounded strange, and everyone looked a little curious to see her reaction, already knowing how much she hated that, but it had been so cute to see that 3 year old boy making all his effort to delivering the gift, in addition to changing her blue hair to red, in order to match hers, that her heart melted

"Thank you my love" And that's how, for Teddy, Ginny became Gin-Gin.

The nickname never came out, when James was born, his godson always referred to her as ''mommy Gin-Gin'', when he made cards at school for Mother's Day (which she and Andromeda earned) he dedicated to Gin-Gin, and as soon as he entered Hogwarts, all the letters addressed to her were with the nickname.

Ginny thought that an hour would pass - and that made her sad just to think - but when he graduated, Teddy made a nice letter thanking Harry, the best godfather I could have, and Gin-Gin, my best friend.

Ginny cried when she read it, but it was her secret and that of the little - now bigger than she - Teddy.

Every time one of the children made her angry, Teddy warned them that they would never find a better mother than 'Gin-Gin', and that they couldn't say that they hated her just because she told them to take a bath.

Ginny was the first person who heard that Teddy liked Victorie, and it was with her that he went to buy flowers for the girl. Eventually, she was the first to know that they were dating, and that they were going to get married (but Harry was together at the last, which doesn't count for much).

Teddy always replied that Gin-Gin was his best friend when someone asked, and that, she was much more than a second mother or godmother.

After all the kids left for Hogwarts, Teddy went to visit her and they spent a few hours talking about nothing, while she took a break from the huge newspaper columns that she would have to write.

He started working with the Aurors, which worried Harry and Ginny until the last strands of hair, but the boy did absurdly well, and every time he returned from a mission, he sent a letter advising her.

When they thought Victorie was pregnant, he went straight to Ginny, who started a monologue about how irresponsible those two idiots were and how she wasn't going to defend him from Bill (of course she would, she always did). But in the end it was just a false alarm, and Teddy never forgot when his godmother and James started their speeches (Because Harry was at work and James couldn't let this moment pass)

But when she got really pregnant, Ginny cried in her living room, because he had counted on giving her and Harry a letter saying that;

''I can't wait to meet my grandparents at heart, I hope Grandma Gin-Gin teaches me how to fly and Grandpa Harry teaches me to be as fearless as he always was''

Ginny and Harry could barely speak, a little outraged that they were already grandparents (even if at heart), while being highly touched by that.

Of course little Aurora called her Grandma Gin-Gin.

Ginny never really cared about the nickname again, there were no more bad memories of being called Gin-Gin, of being cornered and being excluded from everything. Every time a grandson, or Teddy, called her that, a genuine and very happy smile came over her face.

When Teddy told her about his fear of being a father, she told him that the first thing she had learned from him had been to be less hard on herself, in addition to having learned to have a heart of butter. Because no matter what the fuck she did, Teddy was always by her side, hugging her and saying that she was the best Gin-Gin he knew, and that was worth a lot.

Just the fact that non-Hinny authors feel the need to bash Ginny, shows that deep in their hearts they know that Harry and Ginny are perfect for each other. They feel threatened by Gin-Gin, if they didn't feel threatened, they'd just ignore her.

Happy birthday Ginny!
