It all started with a detention

Harry and Ginny burst out of the Charms classroom howling in laughter.

"Quiet down! Do you want to get us another few hours detention "whispered Ginny, even though she herself was in a fit off giggles. "This time for making too much noise after hours"

"I can't help it" said Harry doubling over "You're expression of Filch after he sees the Slytherin's toilets always get me going"

"Comon, I think we should leave, before Flitwick comes out" said Ginny, as the quickly fled the scene. It was nearly 7pm, and the sun was still shining brightly through the arch windows of Hogwarts on a beautiful day. The two walked in comfortable silence, still sniggering at the memories of the past hour spent in what was meant to be a demeaning detention, cleaning the desks and tables, removing any of Goblin Gum, the latest Weasley Wizzard Wheezes product (It made the taker strangely attracted to metal objects). Harry couldn't help but be mentally amused at the fact that the 2rd Year Charms Lesson that day involved transporting Coins. This is why the job was very tedious and 'detention worth' (as put by McGonagall), however the hour itself, turned into more of a comedy session.

"You Know, when you start laughing, I start laughing. That's how it works "Said Ginny smiling, her giggles now subsiding, as they were now approaching the Common Room.

"Do you know how long I had to hold that in for? Longest hour of my life, funniest hour, but still the longest one"

"Well it's good to know that I add a bit of humour to my boyfriend's life"

"Oh, you do much more then bring a bit of laugh to me Gin" Said Harry taking a step towards her.

"Oh really" replied Ginny turning towards him, her eyebrow arched and a smirk forming on her face.

"Oh yes indeed" Harry agreed quietly, before snaking an arm around her waist, leaning his head in to kiss her. Ginny responded by pulling her arms round his neck, deepening the kiss. This was heaven, he could literally stay here for hours and hours-

"OI WILL YOU TWO STOP IT, IT'S THE MIDDLE OF THE BLOODY CORRIDOR". Ron's ears were extremely red, and he was fuming. Hermione herself looked a bit cross, standing behind him in front of the open portrait hole.

"Now really you guys" said Hermione disapprovingly "Wasn't this- the reason that got you into detention in the first place" She added pointing between the two.

"Sorry" apologised Harry looking down at his feet.

"Who says we don't love detentions "Countered Ginny sarcastically, (Yet out of the corner of his eye, Harry saw her wink, referring to earlier.)

"It's not about who does time with Filch" exclaimed Ron angrily "It's about you two acting like leeches in public. I do not- I repeat do not, want to see my best friend and sister doing that."

"I have to agree with Ron" added Hermione "You could at least be a bit discreet about it"

"Oh right like you two" Responded Ginny. She turned her nose up and said in a very Hermionish accent "Ronald Darlinggg would you please accompany me to the library, I want to look up a book". She then puffed her arms out like of Gorilla, "Mione' – Do you want to go see Slughorn now, he wants us to pick up extra work" She turned to Ron "What type of excuse is that- Harry is in your bloody class. Right spies you are"

Both Ron and Hermione turned very red and stuttering words that oddly sounded like "absurd" and "ridicules", as Ginny grabbed Harry by the arm and pulled him through the portrait hole.

"You know, you are getting very good at those impressions" Grinned Harry, turning towards her.

Ginny's face was not smiling. "Is it me, or am I the only one, defending us whenever they have a go?"

"I know, I's sorry" Responded Harry "But you got to understand, he is my best mate, and I don't like testing his patience"

"Still, you could be a little more helpful" Returned Ginny "He has to get used to us dating eventually"

"Whenever that day comes" Snorted Harry "And you seem to hold your own quite comfortably"

"Oh so I'm meant to do all the work, is that it!" Ginny retorted

"No" said Harry guiltily "You're right, I'm sorry. Let me make it up to you?"

"You better" said Ginny her expression softening.

Harry smiled "Great, get your broom, I'll meet you back here in 15 minutes"

"Brooms? " Responded Ginny, her eyes lightening up "What exactly do you have in mind Mr Potter?"

"A surprise, Miss Weasley, one that I think you'd enjoy." He turned around making sure Ron hadn't re-entered, before kissing her quickly. " Now back here in 15 minutes."

"Yeah, don't be late" replied Ginny as he headed for the boys dormitory "I'm meant to be mad at you, remember" she called after him.

Harry just smiled to himself as he pushed the door open.
