*This is another story ina world without Tom Riddle/Voldemort. This is primarily a Ginny/Hermione romance story
After a long summer away from one of her favorite places, young Ginny Weasley was getting ready for her 6th year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. She, her parents, and a few of her brothers were boarding the Hogwarts Express on Platform 9 ¾. Her long orange-ish hair blew in the wind as the whistle blew and she boarded with her brother Ron Weasley.
They walked together towards the front of the train as it powered up and began its long journey. Ron was needed in the Prefects car, since he was one of Gryffindor's Prefects. It was at that point she found a car where her best friend and girlfriend Luna Lovegood was seated at. Before she opened it, her head looked left and she saw Ron talking with Hermione Granger, the Head Girl for Gryffindor. She licked her lips and looked away.
Inside, Luna, a blonde and somewhat short girl, was reading an issue of The Quibbler, a magazine that her father owned. Luna looked up from her read and smiled at Ginny. The redhead sat down next to Luna and gave her a kiss on the lips.
"How was your holiday?" Ginny asked.
"Quite nice." smiled Luna. "I missed you alot." she said, putting down her magazine and holding Ginny's hand.
"I missed you too." Ginny replied, looking into Luna's eyes.
It was at the end of their 5th Year that Ginny admitted she was gay to her family and friends. All her friends and most of the family applauded Ginny for coming out about it, except Mrs. Weasley and Ron, who was very distant with her at home. Ron had personally been disgusted that Ginny liked girls, which confused everyone.
Mrs. Weasley was another story. She had grown up in a household that was classic and traditional. When she heard the news from her daughters mouth, it ached her heart. Mrs. Weasley admitted to her husband, Arthur, that she felt heart broken. Arthur had no objections to Ginny's news and praised his daughter for being so brave. While her mother and brother didn't support the news, everyone else did.
The door to their car suddenly opened slowly and Neville Longbottom came it, looking as nervous as always. he was tall, dark haired, and wearing a brown vest. he smiled weakly at them and saw that they were about to do something passionate.
"I-I'm sorry!" he quickly apologized. "Shall I come back later, Luna?"
"No!" said Luna. "Sit with us, yes!"
Neville sat across from them and tapped his knees.
"How was your summer Neville?" asked Ginny.
"It was good." said Neville. "Yours?"
"For the most part, it was good. There were a few things that were iffy."
"Oh?" asked Luna, interested.
"I told Luna this in my letter, but Ron and my mum weren't too thrilled with me coming out of the closet."
"Why? asked neville.
"My mum comes from a traditional household and Ron… he's just being an arse."
"Well, I support you, Ginny. Nothing wrong with it at all."
"Thanks Nev."
"Still…" said Luna. "Harry sure was upset by it."
"Yeah…" said Ginny, scratching her head. "thats what makes it kinda worse."
"He really did have feelings for you." said Neville. "I figured you'd be together a long time after the Yule Ball."
"Well, things changed. I changed… alot."
They all nodded when the compartment door opened and there stood three Slytherins: Pansy Parkinson, Daphne Greengrass, and Tracey Davis, the meanest girls in the school. Pansy, the leader, leaned against the doorway and looked at them.
"Well, well, well…" she chuckled. "I never expected the rumor to be true."
"We thought Goyle was lying this whole summer." said Daphne.
"Turns out, Weasley and Lovegood are gay for each other." said Tracey.
"So what?" asked Ginny, standing up. "How does that concern you?"
"It doesn't." said Pansy, smirking. She walked do Ginny and stared down at her. "Little Weasley. Never would've took you for a dyke." she pushed Ginny.
"Don't call me that." said Ginny angrily.
"Or what? You gonna punch a Slytherin Prefect?"
"Don't tempt me!" she shouted.
"Heh," smiled Pansy. "When we get to Hogwarts, I'll have Professor Snape take ten points from Gryffindor."
"She didn't do anything!" shouted Luna.
"And ten points from Ravenclaw."
Neville said nothing and acted like he wasn't there.
"And ten more because Longbottom is a sad excuse for a human." she laughed as she left.
"I hate her so, so much." said Luna.
"We all do." said Neville. "Plus, she has Malfoy wrapped around her finger."
"yeah," said Ginny. "Let's pray for a good year."
