Ginny Weasley in Harry Porter

Watching Ginny grow up from the teenage girl who was utterly obsessed with being with a boy she barely knew, to being a confident woman in love with the man she knew better than nearly anyone because she was willing to sit back and love him regardless of his feelings for her, and not let her life stop because of it, made he fall in love with that level of devotion. The way Harry finally realised, staring at her, that he'd found his soul mate some time ago in the girl, now a woman, who prodded his heart back from the edge of oblivion so many times, giving him strength to go on, just... it's amazing to me.
